(A) Except as permitted by subparagraph (B) below, each Global Note and each Definitive Note (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall bear the legend in substantially the following form:

This Note has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction. Neither this Note nor any interest or participation herein may be reoffered, sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in the absence of such registration or unless such transaction is exempt from, or not subject to, such registration. The holder of this Note, by its acceptance hereof, agrees on its own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which it has purchased Notes, to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Note, prior to the date (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) that is one year (in the case of Notes transferred pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or 40 days (in the case of Notes transferred pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act) after the later of the original issue date hereof and the last date on which the issuer or any affiliate of the issuer was the owner of this Note (or any predecessor of such Note), only (a) to the issuer, (b) pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act, (c) for so long as the Notes are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, to a person it reasonably believes is a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act that purchases for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer to whom notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (d) pursuant to offers and sales that occur outside the U.S. within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act, or (e) pursuant to

another available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject to the issuer’s and the trustee’s right prior to any such offer, sale or transfer pursuant to clauses (d) or (e) to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certification and/or other information satisfactory to each of them. This legend will be removed upon the request of the holder after the Resale Restriction Termination Date. In the case of Notes transferred pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act, by its acquisition hereof, the holder hereof represents that it is not a U.S. Person nor is it purchasing for the account of a U.S. Person and is acquiring this security in an offshore transaction in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

(B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Global Note or Definitive Note issued pursuant to Sections 3.02(d), 3.03(c), 3.03(d), 3.04(b), 3.04(c), 3.05(b) or 3.05(c) of this Article III (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) will not bear the Private Placement Legend.

Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company (55 Water Street, New York, New York) (“DTC”), to the Company or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or such other entity as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC), any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein”

(c) Regulation S Temporary Global Note Legend. The Regulation S Temporary Global Note will bear a legend in substantially the following form:

“This Global Note is a Temporary Global Note for purposes of Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Neither this Temporary Global Note nor any interest herein may be offered, sold or delivered, except as permitted under the Indenture referred to below.

No Beneficial Owners of this Temporary Global Note shall be entitled to receive payment of principal or interest hereon unless the required certifications have been delivered pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.”

At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

SECTION 3.08. General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

(a) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.04 of the Original Indenture or at the Registrar’s request.

(b) No service charge will be made to a Holder of a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.12, 3.06 and and 9.05 of the Original Indenture and Section 5.01 of this First Supplemental Indenture).

(e) The Company will not be required:

(A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 of the Original Indenture and ending at the close of business on the day of selection;

(B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or

(C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

(f) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(g) The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.04 of the Original Indenture.

(h) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to Article III to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

(i) Each Holder agrees to indemnify the Company and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s Note in violation of any provision of the Original Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities law. The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(c) A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer. The Change of Control Offer, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, will state that the offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.01, the Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 5.01 and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

3.	Paying Agent, Registrar and Service Agent

Initially the Trustee will act as paying agent and registrar. Initially, Corporation Service Company will act as service agent. The Company may appoint and change any paying agent, registrar or co-registrar and service agent without notice. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as paying agent, registrar, co-registrar or service agent.

4.	Defaults and Remedies; Waiver

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (6) and (7) of Section 6.01 of the Indenture) with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice as provided in the Indenture may declare the principal amount of the Notes to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default described in clauses (6) and (7) of Section 6.01 of the Indenture occurs, the principal amount of all Notes will automatically, and without any action by the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable. After any such declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on such declaration of acceleration, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such declaration of acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal (or other specified amount), have been cured or waived as provided in the Indenture.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee. Subject to such provisions for the indemnification of the Trustee and applicable law, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes of that series then outstanding will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes. Except to enforce payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on a Note on or after the applicable due date specified in such Note, no Holder of a Note will have any right to pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes, unless (i) such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes; (ii) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of that series then outstanding have made written request, and such Holder or Holders have offered indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to institute such proceeding; and (iii) the Trustee has failed to institute such proceeding, and has not received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, within 60 days after such notice, request and offer.

Amendment

Modifications and amendments of the Indenture may be made by the Company and the Trustee without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of each affected series of Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or

A-1-6

exchange offer for such Notes); provided, however, that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby, (i) reduce the principal amount of any Notes issued under the indenture whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; (ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note issued under the Indenture; (iii) reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes issued under the Indenture; (iv) reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any Note issued under the Indenture or change the time at which such Notes may be redeemed, if applicable; (v) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note; (vi) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the securities by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); (vii) make any change in the provisions of the Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders to receive payments of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes; (viii) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note issued under the Indenture; or (ix) make any change in the sections of the Indenture captioned “Waiver of Past Defaults” and “Rights of Holders to Receive Payment” or in the provisions described in this sentence.

The Holders of a series of Notes, through the written consent of a majority in principal amount of a series of the Notes of such series then outstanding, may waive compliance by the Company with certain covenants of the Indenture with respect to such series. The Holders of a series of Notes, through the written consent of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding, may waive any past default under the Indenture with respect to such series, except (i) a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest; (ii) a default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any such Notes when required pursuant to the terms of the Indenture; and (iii) certain covenants and provisions of the indenture which cannot be amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note of such series.

With respect to the Notes, notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs, without the consent of any Holder of such Notes, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect, omission or inconsistency; (ii) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; (iii) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of such Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; (iv) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of such Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder; (v) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended; (vi) to provide for the issuance of additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture; (vii) to appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes, (viii) to add or change any of the provisions of the Indenture necessary to provide for the administration of the trusts in the Indenture by more than one Trustee; or (ix) to conform the text of the Indenture or the Notes to any provision of the section “Description of notes” in the Offering Memorandum relating to the initial offering of the Notes.

A-1-7

6.	Change of Control

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, and the Company has not previously exercised its option to redeem the Notes, each Holder will have the right to require that the Company repurchase all or a portion (in excess of $2,000 in integral multiples of $1,000) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

7.	Obligations Absolute

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

8.	Sinking Fund

The Notes shall not be redeemable at the option of any Holder thereof, upon the occurrence of any particular circumstances or otherwise. The Notes will not have the benefit of any sinking fund.

9.	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. When Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without payment of any service charge but with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 3.06 and 9.04 of the Original Indenture and Section 5.01 of the First Supplemental Indenture).

The Company and the Registrar shall not be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 of the Original Indenture and ending at the close of business on the day of selection; (b) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or (c) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

A-1-8

10.	Further Issues

The Company may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes and in accordance with the Indenture, create and issue further notes having the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects (or in all respects except for the first payment of interest) so as to form a single series with the Notes.

11.	Optional Redemption

The Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company at any time at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of: (A) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed; and (B) as calculated by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes being redeemed from the Redemption Date to the date of maturity (except for accrued but unpaid interest) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 50 basis points; plus accrued but unpaid interest on the notes to, but not including, the redemption date.

12.	Persons Deemed Owners

The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the register maintained by the Registrar.

13.	No Recourse Against Others

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, the Indenture, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Notes waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

14.	Discharge and Defeasance

Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money and/or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

15.	Unclaimed Money

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request

A-1-9

or, if then held by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust. Thereafter the Holder of such Note shall look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

16.	Trustee Dealings with the Company

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.
