ARTICLE 2

THE SECURITIES

SECTION 2.01. Forms; Denominations.

Each Note shall be issued in physical, registered form only in initial denominations of not less than $250,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes will be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A; provided that any of the

Notes may be issued with appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon such legend or legends, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, as may be required to comply with any Requirements of Law or any other applicable law or with rules or regulations pursuant thereto, or with the rules of any securities market in which the Notes are admitted to trading, or to conform to general usage. The maximum principal amount of Notes to be issued hereunder is $100,000,000.

SECTION 2.02. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

(a) The Notes shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Issuer by any Officer of the Issuer. Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the Officers of the Issuer shall be entitled to all benefits under this Indenture, subject to the following sentence, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the date of such Notes. No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture, or be valid for any purpose, however, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Indenture Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Notes shall be dated the date of their authentication. Upon the initial issuance of any Note, such Note shall be authenticated by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to, and upon the Indenture Trustee’s receipt of, an Issuer Order.

(b) The Indenture Trustee may appoint one or more agents (each an “Authenticating Agent”) with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.04 and 2.05, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by those Sections to authenticate the Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes “by the Indenture Trustee”.

Any corporation, bank, trust company or association into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation, bank, trust company or association resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation, bank, trust company or association succeeding to the corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation, bank, trust company or association.

Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Issuer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Indenture Trustee may but shall not be obligated to appoint a successor

Authenticating Agent, and, upon such appointment, the Indenture Trustee will give written notice of such appointment to the Issuer and the Holders. In the event such a successor is not appointed by the Indenture Trustee, the role of Authenticating Agent will revert to the Indenture Trustee.

Each Authenticating Agent shall be entitled to all of the protections, privileges, limitations on liability, rights of reimbursement and indemnities that the Indenture Trustee is entitled to hereunder as fully as if it were the Indenture Trustee.

SECTION 2.03. Interest, Payment of Note Balance of Outstanding Notes.

(a) Each Note will accrue interest during each Interest Period on its Note Balance at the Note Interest Rate calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year.

(b) Accrued interest will be due and payable in cash on each Payment Date, or following declaration of acceleration pursuant to Section 5.02, on demand, and such accrued interest will accrue at the then applicable Note Interest Rate to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(c) The Note Balance of each Note plus any accrued interest is due and payable on the Final Maturity Date, unless the Note Balance and accrued interest of the Note becomes due and payable at an earlier date by declaration of acceleration, voluntary or mandatory redemption or otherwise.

(d) The Notes may be prepaid in whole, or in part, together with all accrued interest as set forth in Section 3.02, and are subject to mandatory redemption in whole, or in part, as set forth in Section 3.06, and are subject to mandatory redemption in whole, but not in part (at the election of each Holder), as set forth in Section 3.07.

SECTION 2.04. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

(a) At all times during the term of this Indenture, there shall be maintained at the office of a registrar appointed by the Issuer (the “Note Registrar”) a register (the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Note Registrar may prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. The Indenture Trustee is hereby initially appointed (and hereby agrees to act in accordance with the terms hereof) as Note Registrar for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, the successor indenture trustee shall immediately succeed to its predecessor’s duties as Note Registrar, absent appointment of any other bank or trust company to act as Note Registrar.

(b) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Note or interest therein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act, regulations

promulgated thereunder and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act, regulations promulgated thereunder and such state securities laws. None of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar is obligated to register or qualify any Notes under the Securities Act, regulations promulgated thereunder or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Indenture to permit the transfer of any Note or interest therein without registration or qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of Notes or interests therein shall, and is hereby deemed to have agreed to, indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar against costs, damages, or any other liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

(c) The Note Registrar shall refuse to register any requested transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certification from the transferring Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto, and a representation letter from the transferee, in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto, and shall have no duty to determine whether such transfer is so exempt or complies with such federal and state laws. If the Holder requesting such transfer is the Investor, the certification in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto shall include a certification by the Investor that following such transfer, the Investor will still be the holder of at least 50.1% of the principal amount of Notes outstanding, and the Note Registrar shall refuse to register any such requested transfer by the Investor unless such certification is so included.

(d) Any purported transfer of a Note to a Person that does not comply with the requirements set forth above will be null and void ab initio and the transferor (or the last preceding Holder of such Note (or interest therein)) that was not so disqualified shall be restored to all rights as a Holder thereof retroactively to the date of transfer of such Note by such disqualified transferee. None of the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar or any other Person shall be obligated to register or otherwise recognize such purported transfer of a Note. Nothing herein shall impose an affirmative duty on the Note Registrar or Indenture Trustee to investigate or make other inquiries as to whether a purported transferee has complied with the requirements set forth above.

(e) If a Person is acquiring any Note or interest therein as a fiduciary or agent for one or more accounts, such Person shall be required to deliver to the Note Registrar a certification to the effect that it has (i) sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and (ii) full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations, warranties, certifications and agreements with respect to each such account as set forth in this Section 2.04 (and upon receipt, the Note Registrar may conclusively rely upon such certification) and shall have no duty to determine whether the Person acquiring such Note or interest therein is such a fiduciary or agent, or has such discretion or power, as the case may be.

(f) Subject to the preceding provisions of this Section 2.04, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the offices of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees (and, to the extent that only a portion of the transferring Holder’s Note Balance is being transferred, to the transferring Holder), one or more new Notes, of a like Note Balance.

(g) At the option of any Holder, its Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of a like Note Balance upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the offices of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

(h) Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Note Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Note Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The Note Registrar may require any Holder, among other things, to furnish any appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and to have signatures guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” that is a member or participant in a recognized “signature guarantee program” (e.g., the securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the Stock Exchange Medallion Program or the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion signature Program).

(i) No service charge shall be imposed for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes.

(j) All Notes surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be physically canceled by the Note Registrar, and the Note Registrar shall dispose of such canceled Notes in accordance with its standard procedures.

(k) The Note Registrar shall provide to the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee, upon reasonable prior written request, and at the expense of the Issuer, an updated copy of the Note Register. The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to obtain a copy thereof within a reasonable amount of time after receipt of notice by the Note Registrar, and to rely conclusively upon a certificate of the Note Registrar as to the information set forth in the Note Register.

(l) Neither the Note Registrar nor the Indenture Trustee shall be under any duty to monitor or determine compliance with any federal, state or other securities or tax laws that may be applicable; provided, however, that the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, shall be under a duty to receive and to examine to determine whether it substantially appears on its face to conform with such exhibit as attached to this Indenture, the certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 or the representation letter in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2 specifically required by the express terms of this Section 2.04 to be delivered to the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee as a requirement of the registration of a transfer of a Note.

(m) The Note Registrar shall be entitled to all of the protections, privileges, limitations on liability, rights of reimbursement and indemnities that the Indenture Trustee is entitled to hereunder as fully as if it were the Indenture Trustee.

SECTION 2.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange therefor, a new Note of the same tenor and denomination, registered in the same manner, dated the date of its authentication and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction (including mutilation tantamount to destruction), loss or theft of any Note and the ownership thereof and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to hold each of them, and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice received by the Issuer or a Trust Officer that such Note has been acquired by a Protected Purchaser, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of the same tenor and denomination registered in the same manner, dated the date of its authentication and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.05, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar may require the payment by the Holder of an amount sufficient to pay or discharge any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses, but no service charge.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.05 in lieu of any destroyed, mutilated, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, mutilated, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by any Person, and such new Note shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 2.05 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

SECTION 2.06. Holder Lists.

The Note Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders, which list, upon request, will be made available to the Indenture Trustee insofar as the Indenture Trustee is no longer the Note Registrar. Upon written request of any Holder made for purposes of communicating with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture (which purpose the Note Registrar shall have no duty to determine or inquire about), the Note Registrar shall within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of such written request furnish such Holder with a list of the other Holders of record identified in the Note Register at the time of the request. Every Holder, by receiving such access, agrees with the Note Registrar that the Note Registrar will not have any liability or be held accountable in any way by reason of the disclosure of any information as to the names and addresses of any Holder regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

SECTION 2.07. Persons Deemed Owners.

The Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and any agents of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the owner of such Note on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of receiving payments of principal, interest and other amounts in respect of such Note and on any other date for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar or any agents of any of them, shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 2.08. Payments on the Notes.

(a) With respect to each Payment Date, any interest, principal and other amounts payable on the Notes shall be paid to the Person that is the registered Holder thereof at the close of business on the related Record Date. Payments of interest, principal and other amounts on the Notes shall be made by wire transfer to such account as such Holder shall designate by written instruction received by the Indenture Trustee not later than five Business Days prior to the Record Date related to the applicable Payment Date.

(b) If a Note is issued in exchange for any other Note during the period commencing at the close of business at the office of the Note Registrar where such exchange occurs on any Record Date and ending before the opening of business at such office of the Note Registrar on the related Payment Date, no interest, principal or other amounts will be payable on such Payment Date in respect of such new Note, but will be payable on such Payment Date only in respect of the prior Note to the Person that is the registered Holder thereof at the close of business on the related Record Date.

(c) The Issuer shall pay to the Indenture Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay in full all amounts of interest, principal, and if any, premium due on any Payment Date, redemption date, the Final Maturity Date, or otherwise prior to 11.00 a.m. Eastern time on such date.

(d) The Indenture Trustee shall pay each Note in full as provided herein on the Final Maturity Date, in immediately available funds, no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Final Maturity Date (to the extent such amounts are received from the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.08(c)). Such payment to the Holder of each Note shall be made on the Final Maturity Date of such Note and such Holder shall present the Note promptly thereafter.

(e) The Indenture Trustee is hereby directed to establish and maintain pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.08, a non-interest bearing account in the name of the Issuer (such account and any successor account, even if renumbered, the “Payment Account”). All payments to be made on the Notes to or by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture shall, as applicable, be made into, or out of, the Payment Account. Funds on deposit in the Payment Account will be disbursed by the Indenture

Trustee pursuant to Issuer Order to make payments to the Holders in respect of principal or interest or redemption price or other amounts in respect of the Secured Obligations. The Issuer shall deliver such Issuer Orders to the Indenture Trustee at least one (1) Business Day prior to any payment date. For purposes of causing the application of funds in accordance with this Section 2.08(e), the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon any Issuer Order provided by the Issuer with respect to any payments to be made pursuant to this Section, and shall have no duty to independently determine, verify or calculate any information therein, including with respect to the amounts or recipients set forth in or delivered together with any such Issuer Order, except as expressly required hereby. Cash held in the Payment Account shall not be invested.

SECTION 2.09. Compliance with Withholding and Other Requirements.

The Indenture Trustee shall comply with all backup withholding tax and information reporting requirements that it is required to comply with under applicable law (including the Code and the Treasury regulations issued thereunder) in respect of any payment on, or in respect of, the Notes.

By acceptance of any Note issued hereunder, unless otherwise prohibited by law, each Holder is deemed to agree to provide to the Issuer or Indenture Trustee any information or certification that may be required under applicable law with respect to withholding, backup withholding or information reporting (including the Noteholder Tax Identification Information, and, to the extent any FATCA Withholding Tax is applicable, the Noteholder FATCA Information), and update or replace such form, information or certification in accordance with its terms or its subsequent amendments to the extent necessary. Failure of a Holder to provide the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer with required tax certificates and information may result in amounts of tax being withheld from the payment to such Holder (without any corresponding gross-up). If the Issuer has knowledge that FATCA Withholding Tax applies, the Issuer will notify the Indenture Trustee thereof.

In order to comply with the laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions, including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (collectively, “Applicable Regulations”), the Indenture Trustee, is required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Indenture Trustee. Accordingly, each of the parties hereto and each Holder agrees to provide the Indenture Trustee, upon its request from time to time, such identifying information and documentation as may be necessary in order to enable the Indenture Trustee to comply with such Applicable Regulations. It is expressly agreed that the Indenture Trustee shall have no duty to perform any services hereunder for, on behalf of or for the benefit of, any Person not having furnished such information as the Indenture, in its sole discretion, determines to be necessary to comply with the Applicable Regulations.

SECTION 2.10. Cancellation.

The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Note Registrar for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall, in accordance with an Issuer Order, be promptly canceled by the Note Registrar.

All Notes delivered to the Indenture Trustee for payment shall be forwarded by the Indenture Trustee to the Note Registrar. All such Notes and all Notes surrendered for transfer and exchange in accordance with the terms hereof shall be canceled and disposed of by the Note Registrar in accordance with its customary procedures.

SECTION 2.11. Lien of the Indenture.

This Indenture shall evidence a continuing Lien on and security interest in the Trust Estate to secure the full payment of the principal, interest and other amounts on all the Notes, which shall in all respects be equally and ratably secured hereby without preference, priority or distinction on account of the actual time or times of the authentication and delivery of the Notes.

SECTION 2.12. Uniform Commercial Code Matters.

(a) The Issuer shall take all actions, including the authorization and filing of all financing statements and amendments thereto, as are necessary to perfect and maintain the perfection and priority under the laws of all relevant jurisdictions of the security interest Granted by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee hereunder. The Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes the filing of financing statements (and amendments of financing statements and continuation statements) that name the Issuer as debtor and the Indenture Trustee as secured party and that cover all personal property of the Issuer. The Issuer also hereby ratifies its authorization of the filing of any such financing statements (or amendments of financing statements or continuation statements) that were filed prior to the execution hereof. The Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation to file or monitor any financing statements (or amendments of financing statements or continuation statements). If the Indenture Trustee notifies the Issuer that it intends to file any financing statements, continuation statements or amendments thereto but fails to do so, and does not in connection therewith timely instruct the Issuer to file such item or items, then the Issuer shall not be and shall not be deemed to be in breach of any covenant, representation or warranty concerning the perfection of related or affected security interests.

(b) The Indenture Trustee acknowledges and agrees that it holds each item of Collateral within its possession or control on behalf of and for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not hold any item of Collateral through an agent or nominee except as expressly permitted by the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

SECTION 2.13. CUSIP Numbers; Bloomberg Listing.

(a) The Issuer in issuing the Notes may, and at the request of a Holder shall, use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Indenture Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices (including notices of redemption) as a convenience to Holders;

provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers, either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes and that any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer shall advise the Indenture Trustee of any change in the CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers, on which notice the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely without investigation.

(b) The Issuer shall provide the terms of the Notes, at its cost, to Bloomberg for listing under the Issuer’s ticker on that service.

SECTION 2.14. Issuance of New Notes.

(a) The Issuer may, from time to time after the Initial Issue Date, direct the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, to issue new Notes (an “Additional Issuance”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.14. The Issuer shall execute the Notes of such Additional Issuance and the Notes of such Additional Issuance (the “Additional Notes”) shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee for authentication and delivery. The Issuer shall issue any Additional Notes in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in this Indenture and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate such Additional Notes pursuant to, and upon the Indenture Trustee’s receipt of, an Issuer Order.

(b) The Issuer shall not cause any Additional Issuance to occur unless the following terms and conditions shall have been satisfied:

(i) no later than seven (7) Business Days before the date of the proposed Additional Issuance, the Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Investor, notice of such new issuance (the “Additional Issuance Notice”);

(ii) the conditions in the Note Purchase Agreement with respect to the purchase of such Notes shall have been satisfied;

(iii) no Additional Issuance shall have been consummated after the date that is one year after the Initial Issue Date;

(iv) at the time of any Additional Issuance no more than two prior Additional Issuances shall have been made; and

(v) each Additional Issuance shall be in increments of $25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes and no greater than $75,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes in respect of all such Additional Issuances.

SECTION 2.15. Extended Maturity Date.

The Initial Maturity Date of the Notes may be extended at the option of the Issuer up to the Extended Maturity Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.15. So long as

no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuer may exercise such option by notifying in writing the Indenture Trustee of such exercise at least 65 calendar days and no more than one year prior to the Initial Maturity Date. If the Issuer exercises such option and delivers such written notice to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall transmit to the Holders not later than 60 calendar days prior to the Initial Maturity Date a notice (the “Extension Notice”), prepared by the Issuer, indicating (i) the election of the Issuer to extend the Initial Maturity Date, (ii) the new Final Maturity Date and (iii) the new Note Interest Rate. The effectiveness of the Extended Maturity Date beyond the Initial Maturity Date is subject to there being no Default or Event of Default continuing at the time of the Initial Maturity Date.

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION

SECTION 3.01. Applicability of Article. Redemption of Notes at the election of the Issuer or otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article 3.

SECTION 3.02. Optional Redemption; Notices to Indenture Trustee.

Any notice of redemption provided by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 3.02(c) shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions herein.

Such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest, to, but not including, the redemption date; provided, however, that if the redemption date is after a Record Date and on or prior to the related Payment Date, the accrued interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Notes registered on such Record Date.

Promptly upon making the Additional Investments, the Issuer shall deliver an Additional Issuance Notice to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with Section 2.14.

The foregoing shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar U.S. federal or state law for the relief of debtors (or their foreign equivalents). The term “custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 5.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(f) or (g) with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee or the Required Holders by notice to the Issuer may, and if such notice is given by the Required Holders such notice shall be given to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, declare that the principal of, and the premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on, all Notes is due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(f) or (g) with respect to the Issuer occurs, the principal of, and the premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on, all the Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable, without any declaration or other act on the part of the Indenture Trustee or any Holders. The Required Holders by notice to the Indenture Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if such Required Holders determine that the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

SECTION 5.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee, after notice to the Holders and receipt of specific written direction from the Required Holders as to how to proceed, may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Indenture Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Indenture Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. To the extent required by law, all available remedies are cumulative.

Following an Event of Default, the Required Holders may instruct the Indenture Trustee to deliver a notice (including a “Notice of Exclusive Control”) giving the Indenture Trustee exclusive control over any securities account or deposit account covered by a Securities Account Control Agreement or Account Control Agreement. The Indenture Trustee may give such notice only upon an Event of Default.

SECTION 5.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. Provided the Notes are not then due and payable by reason of a declaration of acceleration, the Required Holders by written notice to the Indenture Trustee may waive an existing Default or an Event of Default and its consequences except (a) a Default or an Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Note, (b) a Default or an Event of Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Note when required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (c) a Default or an Event of Default in respect of a provision that under Section 8.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default or an Event of Default is waived, it is deemed cured and the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders will be restored to their former positions and rights under this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or an Event of Default or impair any consequent right. Any past Default or an Event of Default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the consent of the Required Holders.

SECTION 5.05. Control by Majority. The Required Holders may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee. However, the Indenture Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Indenture Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Indenture Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. The Holders understand and agree that in fulfilling its role as Indenture Trustee under the Securities Account Control Agreements, the Indenture Trustee shall act solely in accordance with the written direction of the Required Holders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Holders hereby authorize and direct the Indenture Trustee to hold any notices received from the Securities Intermediary for the benefit of the Holders, it being understood and agreed that the Indenture Trustee shall have no other duties or obligations with respect to such notices, except as expressly set forth in this Indenture.

SECTION 5.06. Limitation on Suits. (a) Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(i) the Holder gives the Indenture Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing;

(ii) the Required Holders make a written request to the Indenture Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(iii) such Holder or Holders offer to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense; and

(iv) the Indenture Trustee does not comply with the request within 30 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity.

(b) A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

SECTION 5.07. Rights of the Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in this Indenture or in the Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 5.08. Collection Suit by Indenture Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(a) occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and (to the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Notes) and the amounts provided for in Section 6.06.

SECTION 5.09. Indenture Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Indenture Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation, expenses disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee (including counsel, accountants, experts or such other professionals as the Indenture Trustee deems necessary, advisable or appropriate)) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any Guarantor, their creditors or their property, shall be entitled to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matters and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee, and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Indenture Trustee and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Indenture Trustee under Section 6.06.

SECTION 5.10. Priorities. If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 5, it shall pay out such money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Indenture Trustee for amounts due under Section 6.06;

SECOND: to the Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for interest;

THIRD: to the Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, and premium, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and, if any, premium; and

FOURTH: to the Issuer.

The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 5.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Issuer a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

SECTION 5.11. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer and each Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE 6

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document to the contrary:

(i) the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and each Transaction

Document to which it is a party and no implied duties, covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture or such Transaction Document against the Indenture Trustee (it being agreed that the permissive right of the Indenture Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture or any Transaction Document shall not be construed as a duty); and

However, in the case of certificates or opinions required by any provision hereof to be provided to it, the Indenture Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

SECTION 6.02. Rights of Indenture Trustee. (a) The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following provisions of this Section 6.02 shall apply notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document to the contrary.

(b) Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require, at the expense of the Issuer, an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

(c) The Indenture Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

(d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence.

(e) The Indenture Trustee may, at the expense of Issuer, consult with counsel of its own selection and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture, the Notes, or any other Transaction Documents or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel or Opinion of Counsel.

(f) The Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document unless requested in writing to do so by the Required Holders, but the Indenture Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Indenture Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney, at the expense of the Issuer and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

(g) The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or any other Transaction Document at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(h) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Indenture Trustee, including its right to be compensated, reimbursed and indemnified as provided in Section 6.06, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Indenture Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(k) In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, any force majeure event, or strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Indenture Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

(l) In the event the signature of the Indenture Trustee is required in connection with any sale of any portion of the Collateral, the Issuer, or if during or after an Event of Default, the Holders, shall ensure that the language set forth in Exhibit C shall be included in any document where such signature(s) may be required. The failure of such language to be so included shall excuse the Indenture Trustee from being required to join in the execution of such documents, without regard to any consequences that may result therefrom.

(m) Any request or direction of the Issuer mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Issuer Order.

(n) As a condition to the taking or omitting of any action by it hereunder, the Indenture Trustee may at the expense of the Issuer consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or otherwise if it shall have reasonably determined, on the advice of counsel,

that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Indenture Trustee for which it has not received adequate indemnity or is contrary to the terms hereof or is otherwise contrary to law.

(o) Whenever this Indenture or any other Transaction Document provides that an action may be taken or not taken at the option, election or in the discretion of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to exercise such option, make such election, or exercise such discretion except upon the reasonable written instructions of the Issuer or the Required Holders. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability to any party for carrying out any such direction.

(p) The permissive rights of the Indenture Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action enumerated in this Indenture or any other Transaction Document shall not be treated as a duty.

(q) Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) shall have no duty or responsibility to perform any calculations for, or make any determinations as to the amounts, times, recipients, or other particulars of, any payments and/or transfers to be made by the Indenture Trustee or any other Person under this Indenture or any other Transaction Document, except as expressly required by the terms of this Indenture.

(r) The Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for or in respect of and makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of any provision of this Indenture or for the due execution hereof by the Issuer or any other Obligor or for the form, character, genuineness, sufficiency, value or validity of any of the Collateral, and the Indenture Trustee shall in no event assume or incur any liability, duty or obligation to the Issuer, to any Holders, or to any other Person other than as expressly provided for herein.

(s) The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document or otherwise.

(u) The Issuer hereby agrees and, as evidenced by its acceptance of any benefits hereunder, each Holder agrees that the Indenture Trustee in any capacity has not provided and will not provide in the future, any advice, counsel or opinion regarding the tax, financial, investment or insurance implications and consequences of the preservation, funding, ongoing administration or otherwise with respect to the Collateral.

(v) The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation under this Indenture or in relation to this Indenture or any other

Transaction Document, at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby.

(w) If the Indenture Trustee believes inconsistent alternative courses of action are permitted or required by the terms of this Indenture or any of the Transaction Documents, to which the Indenture Trustee is a party, believes that the terms of the Indenture or any of the Transaction Documents, to which the Indenture Trustee is a party are ambiguous, or is unsure as to the application, intent, interpretation or meaning of any provision of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, the Indenture Trustee after reasonable diligence and consultation with counsel, shall take such action which, in its view, is in the best interest of the Holders and consistent with this Indenture unless it otherwise receives written direction from the Required Holders prior to such action, and notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any Transaction Document, or otherwise, the Indenture Trustee shall have no liability to any Person for any such action or following such direction.

(x) The receipt by the Indenture Trustee of any reports, information or other documents that are provided to the Indenture Trustee for purposes of enabling the sending party to comply with its document delivery requirements hereunder shall not constitute constructive or actual notice of any information contained therein or determinable from any information contained therein, including any other Person’s compliance with any of its covenants, representations or warranties hereunder, unless otherwise specifically set forth in this Indenture.

(y) The parties hereto hereby agree that to the extent that any security or instrument issued by the Issuer is rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, Wilmington Trust, National Association, whether in its capacity as Indenture Trustee or any other capacity hereunder, shall have no duty or obligation to (i) maintain any password-protected web site within the meaning of 17 CFR 240.17g-5 (a “Site”), or (ii) upload any information required to be maintained on such Site.

SECTION 6.03. Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee and its affiliates have engaged, currently are engaged and may in the future engage in financial or other transactions with the Issuer and its affiliates in the Ordinary Course of Business. Any Note Registrar may do the same with like rights. However, the Indenture Trustee must comply with Section 6.10.

SECTION 6.04. Indenture Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, any Guarantee, the Notes, any Security Documents or any other Transaction Documents, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer or any Guarantor in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the

Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The Indenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or of the identity of any Significant Subsidiary unless either (a) a Trust Officer shall have actual knowledge thereof or (b) a Trust Officer shall have received written notice thereof in accordance with Section 11.01 hereof from the Issuer, any Guarantor or any Holder.

SECTION 6.05. Reserved.

SECTION 6.06. Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Indenture Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services as set forth in a separate instrument. The Indenture Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Indenture Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuer and each Guarantor, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee, and each of its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by such Person or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder and under any other Transaction Document, including, without limitation, the costs and expenses of (i) enforcing this Indenture or any other Transaction Document or a Guarantee against the Issuer or a Guarantor (including this Section 6.06), (ii) indemnifying, defending, holding harmless or otherwise reimbursing any party to any Account Control Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof and (iii) defending itself against or investigating any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, any Guarantor, any Holder or any other Person). The obligation to pay such amounts shall survive the payment in full or defeasance of the Notes or the removal or resignation of the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof (such notice, the “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer or any Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party through such party’s own willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith.

To secure the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 6.06, the Indenture Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Indenture Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes.

The Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations pursuant to this Section 6.06 shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture, any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any bankruptcy law or the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Indenture Trustee under applicable law, when the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.01(f) or Section 5.01(g) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to its satisfaction.

The Issuer may assume the defense of such proceeding, with a nationally recognized (or regionally recognized, if local counsel is necessary in such jurisdiction) counsel of its choosing, by delivering written notice of the Issuer’s election to do so to the Indemnified Person (the “Selection Notice”); provided, that, without limiting the generality of subsections (i)-(iii) of this paragraph, such counsel shall not assume the defense of any Indemnified Person if such Indemnified Person objects to the appointment of such counsel within a commercially reasonable time period after its receipt of the Selection Notice. The parties hereto hereby agree that for purposes of the proviso immediately preceding this sentence, a “commercially reasonable time period” shall include a minimum of fifteen (15) business days after the Indenture Trustee’s receipt of the Selection Notice. After delivery of the Selection Notice and the retention of such counsel by the Issuer without objection by the Indenture Trustee as provided in this Section 6.06 (the “Retained Counsel”), the Issuer shall not be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Indenture for any fees or expenses of counsel subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person with respect to the same proceeding, provided that if (i) the employment of counsel other than the Retained Counsel has been previously authorized by the Issuer in writing with respect to the loss, liability or expense described in the Claim Notice, (ii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Issuer and the Indemnified Person in the conduct of any such defense after providing prior written notice to the Issuer of the Indemnified Person’s reasonable conclusion of a conflict of interest and providing the Issuer a reasonable opportunity, and the Indemnified Person’s reasonable cooperation, to cure such conflict, if practicable, or (iii) the Issuer shall not, in fact, within a commercially reasonable amount of time after its receipt of the Claim Notice, have employed counsel to assume the defense of such proceeding, then the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Person’s counsel shall be borne by the Issuer in accordance with this Section 6.06. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ their own counsel in any proceeding for which a Claim Notice has been received by the Issuer, at the Indemnified Person’s sole cost and expense, in which event the Issuer shall have no further obligation or liability to the Indemnified Person under this Indenture for any fees or expenses of counsel subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person with respect to such proceeding. Neither the Issuer nor the Indemnified Person will unreasonably withhold its or their consent to any proposed settlement of a Claim, provided, however, that any such consent will be without prejudice to the right of the Indemnified Person to receive indemnification hereunder.

SECTION 6.07. Replacement of Indenture Trustee. (a) The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. The Required Holders may remove the Indenture Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee if:

(i) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.09;

(ii) the Indenture Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property; or

(iv) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

(b) If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed by the Issuer or by the Required Holders and such Required Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee.

(c) A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Holders. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee, subject to the Lien provided for in Section 6.06.

(d) If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Notes may petition at the expense of the Issuer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

(e) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.07, the Issuer’s and each Guarantor’s obligations under Section 6.06 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.

(f) With respect to the role of the Securities Intermediary under the Securities Account Control Agreements, the Securities Intermediary may also be removed at any time by written notice from the Indenture Trustee, at the request of the Required Holders. In the case of resignation or removal of the Securities Intermediary under the Securities Account Control Agreements, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint a successor that satisfies the provisions of the Securities Account Control Agreements.

SECTION 6.08. Successor Indenture Trustee by Merger. If the Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges with or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the

name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.

SECTION 6.09. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Indenture Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

SECTION 6.10. Confidential Information. The Indenture Trustee, in its individual capacity and as Indenture Trustee, agrees and acknowledges that all information provided to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer or any Group Company (or any direct or indirect equityholder of the Issuer or such Group Company) or any Holder may be considered to be proprietary and confidential information. The Indenture Trustee agrees to take all reasonable precautions necessary to keep such information confidential, which precautions shall be no less stringent than those that the Indenture Trustee employs to protect its own confidential information. The Indenture Trustee shall not disclose to any third party other than as set forth herein or in any other Transaction Document, and shall not use for any purpose other than the exercise of the Indenture Trustee’s rights and the performance of its obligations under this Indenture or any other Transaction Document, any such information without the prior written consent of the Issuer or such Holder (or such holder of a beneficial interest in the Notes), as applicable. The Indenture Trustee shall limit access to such information received hereunder, and shall have the right to disclose any and all such information, to (a) its directors, officers, managers, employees and agents and (b) its legal advisors, inside and outside auditors, accountants, and other advisors, to each of whom disclosure of such information is necessary for the purposes described above; provided, however, that in each case such party has expressly agreed to maintain such information in confidence under terms and conditions substantially identical to the terms of this Section 6.10.

In the event the Indenture Trustee is required to disclose any such information received hereunder in order to comply with any Requirements of Law, it may disclose such information only to the extent necessary for such compliance; provided, however, that it shall give the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of a beneficial interest in the Notes), as applicable, reasonable advance written notice of any court proceeding in which such disclosure may be required pursuant to a court order so as to afford the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of a beneficial interest in the Notes), as applicable, full and fair opportunity to oppose the issuance of such order and to appeal therefrom and shall cooperate reasonably with the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of a beneficial interest in the Notes), as applicable, in opposing such court order and in securing confidential treatment of any such information to be disclosed and/or obtaining a protective order narrowing the scope of such disclosure.

The Note Registrar agrees to be bound by this Section 6.10 to the same extent as the Indenture Trustee.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the foregoing shall not be construed to prohibit (i) disclosure of any and all information that is or becomes publicly known, (ii) disclosure of any and all information (A) if required to do so by any Requirements of Law, (B) to any government agency or regulatory body having or claiming authority to regulate or

oversee any respects of the Indenture Trustee’s business or that of its affiliates, or (C) pursuant to any subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar demand or request of any court, regulatory authority, arbitrator or arbitration to which the Indenture Trustee, or an officer, director, employer, shareholder or affiliate of any of the foregoing is a party.

(3) the Issuer has delivered to the Indenture Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

(b) Upon payment of all the outstanding Notes in full, the Indenture Trustee shall (i) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Issuer any releases or termination statements prepared by the Issuer which the Issuer reasonably requests to evidence discharge of the lien hereof as to the Trust Estate; and (ii) deliver or cause to be delivered all other items reasonably requested by the Issuer, and take all other actions reasonably requested by the Issuer, in order to cause transfer of any portion of the Collateral to the relevant Obligor or its designee.

ARTICLE 8

AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

SECTION 8.01. Without Consent of the Holders. The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Indenture Trustee may amend this Indenture, the Notes or the Security Documents without notice to or consent of any Holder:

(i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency;

(ii) to add additional Guarantees with respect to the Notes;

(iii) to add to the covenants of the Issuer for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon any Obligor;

(iv) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; or

(v) to add additional assets as Collateral to secure the Notes; or

(vi) to release Collateral from the Lien pursuant to this Indenture and the Security Documents when permitted or required by this Indenture or the Security Documents.

After an amendment under this Section 8.01 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 8.01.

SECTION 8.02. With Consent of the Holders. (a) The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Indenture Trustee may amend this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents with the written consent of the Required Holders. However, without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected, an amendment may not:

(i) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment,

(ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note,

(iii) reduce the principal of or change the Final Maturity Date of any Note,

(iv) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed in accordance with Article 3,

(v) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in such Note,

(vi) expressly subordinate the Notes or any Guarantees to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor,

(vii) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of or premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes,

(viii) make any change in this Section 8.02,

(ix) modify any Guarantees in any manner adverse to the Holders,

(x) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien of this Indenture and the Security Documents, or

(xi) make any change in the provisions in this Indenture dealing with the application of proceeds of Collateral that would adversely affect the Holders of the Notes.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

(b) After an amendment under this Section 8.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 8.02.

SECTION 8.03. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. (a) A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of the Note if the Indenture Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date on which the Indenture Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer

certifying that the requisite principal amount of Notes have consented. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the (i) receipt by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee of consents by the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes, (ii) satisfaction of conditions to effectiveness as set forth in this Indenture and any indenture supplemental hereto containing such amendment or waiver, (iii) execution of such amendment or waiver (or supplemental indenture) by the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Indenture Trustee and (iv) delivery to the Indenture Trustee of each Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel required under Section 8.05 and Article 11 hereof.

(b) The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding Section 8.03(a), those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

SECTION 8.04. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Issuer may require the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Indenture Trustee, in accordance with an Issuer Order, shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 8.05. Indenture Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Indenture Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 8 if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Indenture Trustee. If it does, the Indenture Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing any amendment, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and shall be provided with, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver (i) is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, (ii) is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and the Guarantors, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, (iii) has been authorized by the requisite principal amount of Notes, (iv) complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 8.03), and (v) will not adversely affect the interests of any Holder.

SECTION 8.06. Payment for Consent. Neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate of the Issuer shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

SECTION 8.07. Additional Voting Terms; Calculation of Principal Amount. All Notes issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters (as to which any of such Notes may vote) as one class. Determinations as to whether Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent shall be made in accordance with this Article 8.

ARTICLE 9

GUARANTEES

SECTION 9.01. Guarantees. (a) Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety on a senior basis to each Holder and to the Indenture Trustee and its successors and assigns (i) the full and punctual payment when due, whether at the Final Maturity Date, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of all obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture (including obligations to the Indenture Trustee and the Notes, whether for payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes and all other monetary obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes, and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuer, whether for fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise under this Indenture and the Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from each such Guarantor, and that each such Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article 9 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation. The Guaranteed Obligations of a Guarantor will be secured by security interests (subject to Permitted Liens) in the Collateral owned by such Guarantor to the extent provided for in the Security Documents and as required pursuant to Sections 4.08, 4.09 and 4.18.

(b) Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Holder or the Indenture Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes, any Security Document, or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of this Indenture, the Notes, any Security Document or any other agreement; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes, any Security Document or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Indenture Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any Guarantor; (v) the failure of any Holder or the Indenture Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (vi) any change in the ownership of such Guarantor, except as provided in Section 9.02(b).

(c) Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have its obligations hereunder divided among the Guarantors, such that such Guarantor’s obligations would be less than the full amount claimed. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Issuer or any other Guarantor first be used and depleted as payment of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid by such Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to require that the Issuer be sued prior to an action being initiated against such Guarantor.

(d) Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Indenture Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(e) Except as expressly set forth in Sections 7.01 and 9.02, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Indenture Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes, any Security Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

(f) Except as expressly set forth in Sections 7.01 and 9.02, each Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations. Except as expressly set forth in Sections 7.01 and 9.02, each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Indenture Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.

(g) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Indenture Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with this Indenture, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Indenture Trustee an amount equal

to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by applicable law) and (iii) all other monetary obligations of the Issuer then due to the Holders or the Indenture Trustee in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(h) Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Indenture Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 5 for the purposes of any Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 5, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 9.01.

(i) Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Indenture Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 9.01.

(j) Upon request of the Indenture Trustee, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

SECTION 9.02. Limitation on Liability. (a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

(b) Except for such Guaranteed Obligation that shall survive pursuant to the express terms of this Indenture, a Guarantee as to any Guarantor shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and such Guarantor shall be deemed to be automatically released from all obligations under this Article 9 upon:

(i) the sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise) of the Capital Stock (including any sale, disposition or other transfer following which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary), or all or substantially all the assets, of the applicable Guarantor if such sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer is made in a manner not in violation of this Indenture;

(ii) the Issuer’s exercise of the Issuer’s legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option in accordance with Section 7.01 or if the obligations of the Issuer and such Guarantor under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 9.03. Successors and Assigns. This Article 9 shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders and their successors and assigns and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Indenture Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

SECTION 9.04. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 9 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which any of them may have under this Article 9 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

SECTION 9.05. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article 9, nor the consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Indenture Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 9.06. Non Impairment. The failure to endorse a Guarantee on any Note shall not affect or impair the validity thereof.

The Obligors hereby acknowledge and agree that the Indenture Trustee holds the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Holders, pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their respective terms and this Indenture, and authorizes and directs the Indenture Trustee to enter into

the Security Documents and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Issuer shall take, and shall cause the Guarantors to take, any and all actions reasonably required to cause the Security Documents to create and maintain at all times, as security for the Obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereunder, a valid and enforceable perfected Lien on all of the Collateral, in favor of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders under the Security Documents.

SECTION 10.02. Release of Collateral. (a) Subject to Sections 8.01 and 8.02 hereof, the Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by the Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents or as provided hereby. The Issuer and the Guarantors will be entitled to a release of assets included in the Collateral from the Liens securing the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall release the same from such Liens at the Issuer’s sole cost and expense, under one or more of the following circumstances:

(1) to enable the Issuer or any Subsidiary to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral to the extent not prohibited under Section 4.06 or to the extent such transaction complies with Section 3.06;

(2) in the case of a Guarantor that is released from its Guarantee with respect to the Notes in accordance with this Indenture, the release of the property and assets of such Guarantor; or

(3) pursuant to an amendment or waiver in accordance with Article 8 of this Indenture.

Upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate (and upon receipt, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely upon such Officers’ Certificate and shall have no duty to make any determination or investigation with respect to the contents thereof) certifying that all conditions precedent under this Indenture and the Security Documents, if any, to such release have been met and any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release have been prepared by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee shall execute, deliver or acknowledge (at the Issuer’s expense) such instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents

(b) At any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the maturity of the Notes has been accelerated (whether by declaration or otherwise), no release of Collateral pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or the Security Documents will be effective as against the Holders.

SECTION 10.03. Permitted Releases Not To Impair Lien. The release of any Collateral from the terms hereof and of the Security Documents or the release of, in whole or in part, the Liens created by the Security Documents, will not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral or Liens are released pursuant to the applicable Security Documents and the terms of this Article 10. Each of the Holders acknowledges that a release of Collateral or a Lien in accordance with the terms of the Security Documents and of this Article 10 will not be deemed for any purpose to be in contravention of the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.04. Suits To Protect the Collateral. Subject to the provisions of Article 6 hereof, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, may take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:

(a) enforce any of the terms of the Security Documents; and

(b) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Issuer hereunder.

Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall have power (but not the obligation) to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of any of the Security Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Indenture Trustee, in its sole discretion, may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral (including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the Lien on the Collateral or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders or the Indenture Trustee).

SECTION 10.05. Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Indenture Trustee Under the Security Documents. The Indenture Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.06. Purchaser Protected. In no event shall any purchaser in good faith of any property purported to be released hereunder be bound to ascertain the authority of the Indenture Trustee to execute the release or to inquire as to the satisfaction of any conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority or to see to the application of any consideration given by such purchaser or other transferee; nor shall any purchaser or other transferee of any property or rights permitted by this Article 10 to be sold be under any obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor to make any such sale or other transfer.

SECTION 10.07. Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Indenture Trustee. In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article 10 upon the Issuer or a Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Issuer or a Guarantor or of any officer or officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article 10; and if the Indenture Trustee shall be in the possession of the Collateral under any provision of this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Indenture Trustee.

SECTION 10.08. Release Upon Termination of the Issuer’s Obligations. In the event that the Issuer delivers to the Indenture Trustee, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee, an Officers’ Certificate (and upon receipt, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely upon such Officers’ Certificate and shall have no duty to make any determination or investigation with respect to the contents thereof) certifying that (i) payment in full of the principal of, together with accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes and all other Obligations under this Indenture, the Guarantees and the Security Documents that are due and payable at or prior to the time such principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest (including additional interest, if any), are paid, or (ii) all the obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents have been satisfied and discharged by complying with the provisions of Article 7, the Indenture Trustee shall deliver to the Issuer a notice stating that the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, disclaims and gives up any and all rights it has in or to the Collateral, and any rights it has under the Security Documents, and upon delivery of such notice, the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed not to hold a Lien in the Collateral on behalf of the Holders and shall do or cause to be done all acts reasonably necessary to release such Lien as soon as is reasonably practicable.
