WHEREAS, effective after the close of business on December 31, 2007, pursuant to the reorganization of certain of the Company’s Subsidiaries, among other things, (i) certain of the Company’s then-existing Subsidiaries that were also Guarantors were consolidated with or merged with and into certain of the Company’s other Subsidiaries that were also Guarantors, and (ii) Moncla Marine, L.L.C., a Louisiana limited liability company and a Guarantor (the “Prior Guarantor”), was merged with and into the New Guarantor, a newly-organized Subsidiary of the Prior Guarantor;

 

WHEREAS, Section 10.9(a)(2)(A) of the Indenture provides that a Guarantor may not consolidate with or merge with or into another Person (whether or not such Guarantor is the resulting, transferee or surviving Person) other than the Company or another Guarantor unless the Person surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Guarantor) unconditionally assumes, pursuant to a supplemental indenture, all the obligations of such Guarantor under the Indenture, the Securities, its Subsidiary Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee are authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture to amend or supplement the Indenture without the consent of any Holder;

 

NOW THEREFORE, to comply with the provisions of the Indenture and in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the New Guarantor, the existing Guarantors, the Company and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities as follows:

 

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

 

2.                                    AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE.  The New Guarantor hereby agrees, jointly and severally, with all other Guarantors, to guarantee to each Holder and to the Trustee the Guaranteed Obligations, to the extent set forth in the Indenture and subject to the provisions in

 



 

the Indenture.  The obligations of the Guarantors to the Holders of Securities and to the Trustee pursuant to the Subsidiary Guarantees and the Indenture are expressly set forth in Article X of the Indenture and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for the precise terms of the Subsidiary Guarantees.

 

3.                                    EXECUTION AND DELIVERY.  The New Guarantor agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

 

4.                                    NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN.  THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE AND ENFORCE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE.

6.                                    EFFECT OF HEADINGS.  The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

 

7.                                    THE TRUSTEE.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no duties, responsibilities or liabilities are assumed, or shall be construed to be assumed, by the Trustee by reason of this Supplemental Indenture.  This Supplemental Indenture is executed and accepted by the Trustee subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture with the same force and effect as if those terms and conditions were repeated at length herein and made applicable to the Trustee with respect hereto.
