Partnership on the one hand and such Restricted Subsidiary on the other), then the Partnership will cause such Subsidiary to again become a Subsidiary Guarantor by executing and delivering a supplemental indenture to the Indenture, in a form satisfactory to the Trustee, providing for the Guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor of the Partnership’s obligations under the Notes and all other obligations of the Partnership under the Indenture, in accordance with Article X of the Base Indenture.

Upon any such release of the Collateral, Section 5.2 shall continue to govern the incurrence of Liens by the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries.


Section 6.2	Security Documents.

(b)

This Indenture and the Notes Collateral Documents (other than the Collateral Agency Agreement) are subject to the terms, limitations and conditions set forth in the Collateral Agency Agreement. Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance of a Note, is deemed to have consented and agreed to the terms of each Notes Collateral Document, as originally in effect and as amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time in accordance with its terms or the terms of the Indenture or the Collateral Agency Agreement, to have authorized and directed the Notes Collateral Agent to enter into the Notes Collateral Documents to which it is a party, and to have authorized and empowered the Notes Collateral Agent and (through the Collateral Agency Agreement) the Collateral Agent to bind the Holders of Notes and other holders of Senior Obligations as set forth in the Collateral Documents to which they are a party and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights and powers thereunder, including entering into amendments permitted by the terms of the Indenture, the Collateral Agency Agreement or the Collateral Documents.

Agreement), or that are otherwise required by Section 314(b) of the TIA, including without limitation arranging for the filing of financing statements, continuation statements, mortgages and any instruments of further assurance, in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve and protect the rights of the Holders and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent under this Indenture and the Collateral Documents to all property now or hereafter at any time comprising the Collateral. The Partnership shall from time to time promptly pay all financing, continuation statements and mortgage recording, registration and/or filing fees, charges and taxes relating to this Indenture and the Collateral Documents, any amendments thereto and any other instruments of further assurance required hereunder or pursuant to the Collateral Documents.

The fair value of Collateral released from the Liens created by this Indenture and the Collateral Documents pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.4 shall not be considered in determining whether the aggregate fair value of the Collateral released from the Liens created by this Indenture and the Collateral Documents in any calendar year exceeds the 10% threshold specified in Section 3.14(d)(1) of the TIA.


Section 6.5	Suits to Protect Collateral.

(a)

Subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.02 of the Base Indenture and the provisions of the Collateral Documents, the Trustee or Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, and shall at the direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to enforce any of the terms of the Collateral Documents and collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Note Obligations.

Section 6.6	Powers Exercisable by Receiver, Trustee or Collateral Agent.

(a)

In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article VI and the Collateral Documents upon the Partnership and the Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver, trustee or the Collateral Agent, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Partnership or a Subsidiary Guarantor or of any Officer or Officers of the Partnership or a Subsidiary Guarantor required by the provisions of this Article VI.


Section 6.7	Determinations Relating to Collateral.

(a)

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and annul its consequences under the Indenture, provided that such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and all existing Events of Default with respect to the Notes, other than the non-payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived.

Section 6.05 Control by Majority.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to such Notes. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder, or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to security or indemnity satisfactory to it in its sole discretion from Holders directing the Trustee against any cost, liability or expense caused by taking or not taking such action.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, if at any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind such declaration and annul its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any

A-1-6

judgment or decree of a court already rendered and if all Events of Default with respect to the Securities, other than the nonpayment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest which has become due solely by such declaration acceleration, shall have been cured or shall have been waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity or security satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.
