(iii)          The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

(iv)          All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid and legally binding obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(v)           Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall 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 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so 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.

37

(vii)         The Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, in the absence of notice to the Issuer or the Trustee that the Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met.  If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee to protect the Trustee and in the judgment of the Issuer to protect the Issuer, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.  The Issuer may charge a Holder for its expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.08.                         Outstanding Notes.

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding.  Except as set forth in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b).

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.09.                         Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer, any Guarantor or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer or any Guarantor, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

38

Section 2.10.                         Temporary Notes.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes.  Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes.  Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 2.11.                         Cancellation.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such canceled Notes in its customary manner (consistent with all applicable legal requirements).  Certification of the disposition of all canceled Notes shall be delivered to the Issuer.  The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12.                         Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01.  The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment.  The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest.  At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

Section 2.13.                         CUSIP, ISIN and Other Numbers.

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP”, “ISIN” or other such numbers (if then generally in use) and, if it does so, the Trustee shall use the CUSIP, ISIN or other such numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or other such numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes and any such redemption or exchange shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

Section 2.14.                         Issuance of Additional Notes.

The Issuer shall be entitled, from time to time, subject to its compliance with Section 4.09, without the consent of any Holder, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture with identical terms as the Notes issued on the Issue Date other than with respect to (i) the date of issuance, (ii) the issue price, (iii) the amount of interest payable on the first interest payment date, (iv) Additional Notes that are Restricted Notes may contain mandatory or optional redemption provisions that apply only to such

39

Additional Notes and that are agreed to by the Issuer and the purchasers of such Additional Notes; provided, that all such redemption rights and obligations expire on or before the filing of a registration statement with respect to the Exchange Offer relating to any such Additional Notes, and (vi) any changes necessary to conform to and ensure compliance with the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws).  Any redemption provisions applicable only to Additional Notes as contemplated by the preceding sentence shall expressly provide that prior to any Exchange Offer relating to such Notes, all such redemption provisions shall be of no further force or effect, and shall not be deemed to be part of such Additional Notes.  The Initial Notes issued on the Closing Date, any Additional Notes and all Exchange Notes issued in exchange therefor shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, except redemption provisions.

In connection with any issuance of Additional Notes contemplated by this Section 2.14, the Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee,  stating that such issuance of Additional Notes contemplated by this Section 2.14 and such supplemental indenture in respect thereto complies with this Section 2.14 and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such issuance have been complied with and that such supplemental indenture constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the successor entity, subject to the customary exceptions.  Such supplemental indenture shall also contain the following information:

(a)           the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture;

(b)           the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP or ISIN number of such Additional Notes; provided, however, that no Additional Notes may be issued at a price that would cause such Additional Notes to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended;

(c)           whether such Additional Notes shall be Restricted Notes or shall be issued in the form of Exchange Notes; and

(d)           whether such Additional Notes shall include mandatory or optional redemption provisions pursuant to clause (iv) of the first sentence of the preceding paragraph and the terms of any such redemption provisions.

40

its discretion, unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange requirements provided that as long as DTC serves as Depository for the Global Notes, any redemption shall comply with DTC’s procedural requirements.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.  Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 thereof (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof); except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of such class of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed.  Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.03.                         Notice of Redemption.

Subject to the provisions of Section 4.10, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address.

If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption.  If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date.  If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01.

(i)            the Incurrence of such Indebtedness as if such Indebtedness was Incurred at the beginning of the Reference Period and (if applicable) the application of the net proceeds thereof to repay other Indebtedness as if the application of such proceeds occurred at the beginning of the Reference Period;

(xiv)        the Incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five (5) Business Days.

Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness and the payment of dividends in the form of additional Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, will in each case not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09.

For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4.09, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories described in clauses (i) through (xiv) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Issuer will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its Incurrence, and may later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09.

Section 4.10.                         Asset Sales; Event of Loss.

(a)           Other than upon an Event of Loss, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale after the Issue Date, unless (i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the Property subject to such Asset Sale as determined by the Board of Directors of MTR in good faith; (ii) at least 75% of such consideration consists of cash, Temporary Cash Investments or any stock or assets of the kind referred to in clause (i) or (iii) of the definition of “Additional Assets;” provided, however, that for purposes of this clause (ii), (A) the assumption of liabilities of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as shown on MTR’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, which are not by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee, shall be deemed to be Temporary Cash Investments if the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, and all other Restricted Subsidiaries, to the extent any of the foregoing are liable with respect to such liability, are expressly released or indemnified from all liability for such liability in connection with such Asset Sale pursuant to a customary novation or indemnity agreement; and (B) any securities or notes received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Temporary Cash Investments within 90 days of the date of such Asset Sale shall be deemed to be Temporary Cash Investments; and (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of, or would occur after giving effect, on a pro forma basis, to, such Asset Sale.

52

The definition of “Asset Sale” and “Event of Loss” each exclude any single transaction or series of related transactions that involve assets having a Fair Market Value of less than $10.0 million and therefore the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may dispose of assets or suffer an Event of Loss with significant value without restrictions under this Section 4.10.

(b)           Upon an Event of Loss incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the Net Proceeds received from such Event of Loss shall be applied in the same manner as proceeds from Asset Sales described and pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 4.10.

(c)           Within 360 days after the receipt of the Net Proceeds of an Asset Sale or Event of Loss, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale or Event of Loss may be applied by MTR or a Restricted Subsidiary (i) to permanently repay, redeem or prepay (x) any First Lien Obligations and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto or (y) Second Lien Obligations (and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto) by redeeming Notes as provided in Section 3.07 or by making an offer to purchase (a “Prepayment Offer”) (in accordance with the procedures set forth below); provided that in the case of a reduction of Obligations other than under the Notes under this clause (y) the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to equally and ratably redeem Notes as provided in Section 3.07 or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for a Prepayment Offer) to all Holders of Notes to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid; or (ii) to reinvest in Additional Assets (including by means of an Investment in Additional Assets by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary with Net Proceeds received by the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary); provided that to the extent any such Net Proceeds were from the sale of Collateral, any such Additional Assets shall constitute Collateral; provided, however, that if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary contractually commits within such 360-day period to apply such Net Proceeds within 180 days of such contractual commitment pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 4.10(c), and such Net Proceeds are subsequently applied as contemplated in such contractual commitment, then the requirement for application of Net Proceeds set forth in this Section 4.10(c) shall be considered satisfied.

(d)           Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided for in Section 4.10(c) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”  When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, within fifteen (15) Business Days thereof, the Issuer will make a Prepayment Offer to: (i) in the case of Net Proceeds from Collateral, all Holders of the Notes and all holders of other Second Lien Obligations containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets; and (ii) in the case of any other Net Proceeds, all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets.

To the extent that any portion of the Excess Proceeds remains after compliance with the preceding sentence and provided that all Holders have been given the opportunity to tender the Notes for repurchase in accordance with this Section 4.10, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may use such remaining amount for general corporate purposes. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Second Lien Obligations (in the case of Net Proceeds from Collateral) or Notes and other Pari Passu Indebtedness (in the case of any other Net Proceeds) tendered in connection with such Prepayment Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased, and the representative(s) for the Holders of other Second Lien Obligations shall select such other Second Lien Obligations (and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness) to be purchased and prepaid, on a pro rata basis (subject to adjustments so that no Note, Second Lien Obligation or Pari Passu Indebtedness is

53

repurchased in part in other than an authorized denomination). Upon completion of each Prepayment Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. Pending application of Net Proceeds pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 4.10(c), such Net Proceeds will be used to temporarily repay First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations that are revolving Indebtedness or otherwise be deposited with the Collateral Agent pending application in accordance with Section 4.10(c) and shall constitute Collateral.

(e)           Within fifteen (15) Business Days after the amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Issuer shall send a prepayment offer notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee) , accompanied by such information regarding MTR and its Subsidiaries as the Issuer in good faith believes will enable such Holders to make an informed decision with respect to the Prepayment Offer. The prepayment offer notice (which may be conditional) will state, among other things:

(i)            that the Issuer is offering to purchase Notes pursuant to Section 4.10 of this Indenture;

(ii)           that any Note (or any portion thereof) accepted for payment (and for which payment has been duly provided on the purchase date) pursuant to the Prepayment Offer shall cease to accrue interest on the purchase date;

(iii)          the purchase price and purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, no less than 30 days nor more than 60 days from the date the Prepayment Offer notice is mailed;

(iv)          the aggregate principal amount of Notes (or portions thereof) to be purchased;

(v)           a description of any conditions to such Prepayment Offer; and

(vi)          a description of the procedure which Holders must follow in order to tender their Notes (or portions thereof) and the procedures that Holders must follow in order to withdraw an election to tender their Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

(f)            Not later than the purchase date, the Issuer shall irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own paying agent, segregate and hold in trust) in Temporary Cash Investments an amount equal to the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to be paid to the Holders entitled thereto, to be held for payment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.10.  Holders electing to have a Note purchased will be required to surrender the Note, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Issuer at the address specified in the notice at least five (5) Business Days prior to the purchase date.  Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Issuer receives not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the purchase date, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note which was delivered for purchase by the Holder, the certificate number of such Note and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased.

(g)           On the purchase date, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee the Notes or portions thereof which have been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Issuer.  The Trustee (or Paying Agent) shall, on the purchase date, mail or deliver payment of the purchase price to each tendering Holder.  In the event that the aggregate purchase price of the Notes delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee is less than the amount deposited with the Trustee (or Paying Agent), the Trustee (or Paying Agent) shall deliver the excess to the Issuer immediately after the end of the payment date.

54

(h)           MTR will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of Notes required by this Section 4.10.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions relating to the Prepayment Offer, MTR will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue thereof.

Section 4.11.                         Transactions with Affiliates.

(a)           The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, conduct any business or enter into or suffer to exist any transaction or series of transactions (including the purchase, sale, transfer, lease or exchange of any Property, the making of any Investment, the giving of any Guarantee or the rendering or receiving of any service) with, from or for the benefit of any Affiliate of MTR involving aggregate consideration in excess of $2.0 million (an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless:  (i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are at least as favorable to MTR or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, as those that would be reasonably expected to be obtained at the time of such Affiliate Transaction in a similar transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person who is not an Affiliate of MTR; and (ii) with respect to each Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate payments to either party in excess of $10.0 million, such Affiliate Transaction was approved by the Board of Directors of MTR or such Restricted Subsidiary and that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) of this Section 4.11(a).

(b)           Notwithstanding the limitation of Section 4.11(a), the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may enter into or suffer to exist the following:  (i) any transaction pursuant to any contract in existence on the Issue Date; (ii) any Restricted Payment permitted to be made pursuant to Section 4.06; (iii) any transaction or series of transactions between MTR and one or more of the Restricted Subsidiaries or between two or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries; (iv) any issuance of Capital Stock of the Issuer to Affiliates of the Issuer and the granting of registration rights with respect thereto otherwise permitted under this Indenture; and (v) any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, indemnification agreement or similar arrangement with any employee, director or officer of MTR or its Subsidiaries and the payment of compensation (including amounts paid pursuant to employee benefit plans or employment agreements) for the personal services of, and indemnity provided on behalf of, and reimbursement of expenses to, officers, directors and employees of MTR or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 4.12.                         Liens.

(a)           The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur or suffer to exist, any Lien on the Collateral (other than a Permitted Lien) that secures obligations under any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (any such Lien, the “Additional Lien”), on any asset or properties of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom, except, in the case of any asset or property that does not constitute Collateral, any Additional Lien if the Notes are, or in the case of Indebtedness of any Guarantor, the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor is, equally and ratably secured with (or on a senior basis to, in the case such Additional Lien secures any Indebtedness that is subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) the obligations secured by such Additional Lien.

(b)           Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to Section 4.12(a) shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall, subject to applicable law, be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge the Additional Lien.

55

Section 4.13.                         Corporate Existence.

Subject to Article 5, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

Section 4.14.                         Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

(a)           If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof)) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and Additional Interest, if any, thereon to the purchase date (the “Change of Control Payment”).

(b)           Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer shall mail a notice (which may be conditional) to the Trustee and each Holder stating, among other things:  (1) that a Change of Control has occurred and a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 and that all Notes (or portions thereof) timely tendered will be accepted for payment; (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); (3) that any Note (or portion thereof) accepted for payment (and for which payment has been duly provided on the Change of Control payment date) pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date; (4) that any Notes (or portions thereof) not tendered will continue to accrue interest; (5) a description of the transaction or transactions constituting the Change of Control; (6) a description of any conditions to the Change of Control Offer; and (7) the procedures that Holders must follow in order to tender their Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and the procedures that Holders must follow in order to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

(c)           A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of the making of the Change of Control Offer.  In addition, the Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control 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 4.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

(d)           Not later than the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust) in Temporary Cash Investments an amount equal to the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to be paid to the Holders entitled thereto, to be held for payment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.14.  Holders electing to have a Note purchased will be required to surrender the Note, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Issuer

56

at the address specified in the notice at least five (5) Business Days prior to the purchase date.  Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Issuer receives not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the purchase date, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note which was delivered for purchase by the Holder, the certificate number of such Note and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased.

(e)           On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee the Notes or portions thereof which have been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Issuer, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.  The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note of the same class and equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof).   In the event that the aggregate purchase price of the Notes delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee is less than the amount deposited with the Trustee (or Paying Agent), the Trustee (or Paying Agent) shall deliver the excess to the Issuer immediately after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(f)            The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of Notes in connection with a Change of Control.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions relating to the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.14 by virtue thereof.

Section 4.15.                         Limitation on Status of Investment Company.

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, become an “investment company” (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the “Investment Company Act”), to the extent such status would subject the Issuer or any such Subsidiary to regulation under the Investment Company Act, except for Subsidiaries established for the purpose of financing the operating businesses of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries.

Section 4.16.                         Limitation on Layered Indebtedness.

The Issuer shall not Incur, and shall not permit any Guarantor to Incur, any Indebtedness (including any Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xiv) of Section 4.09(b)) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as applicable, unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the applicable Note Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis.

Section 4.17.                         Business Activities.

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other than a Core Business.

57

Section 4.18.                         Additional Note Guarantees.

On the Issue Date, each of the Guarantors will guarantee the Notes in the manner and on the terms set forth in this Indenture. If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Material Subsidiary or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not then a Guarantor becomes a Material Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, then such Material Subsidiary will become a Guarantor and execute a Supplemental Indenture, in the form of Exhibit G hereto, and deliver an Opinion of Counsel as required by this Indenture within fifteen (15) Business Days of the date on which it was acquired, created or otherwise became a Material Subsidiary (or such longer period as may be required to obtain any necessary approvals under applicable Gaming Laws or other regulatory requirements). Such new Guarantor shall also within such time execute a joinder to the Security Documents and/or new Security Documents, as applicable, and take all actions required by the Security Documents to perfect the Liens created thereunder. Any Subsidiary of MTR that constitutes an Immaterial Subsidiary need not become a Guarantor until such time as it becomes a Material Subsidiary. MTR shall use reasonable commercial efforts to obtain all approvals of any Gaming Authority necessary to permit any Material Subsidiary to become a Guarantor as promptly as practicable.

Section 4.19.                         Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

The Board of Directors of MTR may designate any Restricted Subsidiary and any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary; provided that:

(i)            such designation would not cause a Default;

(ii)           such Subsidiary has no Indebtedness other than Qualified Non-Recourse Debt;

(iii)          such Subsidiary does not own any Capital Stock or Indebtedness of or own or hold any Lien on any Property of MTR or any other Subsidiary of MTR that is not a Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated; and

(iv)          such designation is permitted by Section 4.06.

If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary (excluding for this purpose the second sentence of the definition of “Investments”) designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.06 or under one or more clauses of the definition of “Permitted Investment,” as determined by MTR.  That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Any designation of a Subsidiary of MTR as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of MTR giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that (1) such designation complied with the preceding conditions and (2) was permitted by Section 4.06 and giving the effective date of such designation, such filing with the Trustee to occur within 75 days after the end of the fiscal quarter of MTR in which such designation is made (or, in the case of a designation made during the last fiscal quarter of the fiscal year, within 120 days after the end of such fiscal year).  If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of MTR as of such date and, if such

58

Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09, the Issuer will be in default of such covenant.

The Board of Directors of MTR may at any time designate, or redesignate, any Unrestricted Subsidiary of MTR to be a Restricted Subsidiary of MTR; provided that such designation, or redesignation, will be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of MTR of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation, or redesignation, will only be permitted if (i) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Reference Period and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation or redesignation.

Section 4.20.                         Further Assurances; After-Acquired Collateral.

(a)           Upon the acquisition by the Issuer or any Guarantor after the Issue Date of (1) any assets, including, but not limited to, any Material Real Property or any equipment or fixtures which constitute accretions, additions or technological upgrades to the equipment or fixtures or any working capital assets that, in any such case, form part of the Collateral, or (2) any replacement assets in compliance with Section 4.10, the Issuer or such Guarantor shall execute and deliver, (i) with regard to any Material Real Property, a mortgage and supporting documentation specified in this Indenture within 90 days of the date of acquisition, and (ii) to the extent required by the Security Documents, any information, documentation, financing statements or other certificates and Opinions of Counsel as may be necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected security interest, subject only to Permitted Liens, in such after-acquired property (other than Excluded Property) and to have such after-acquired property added to the Collateral, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such after-acquired property to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

(b)           The Issuer and the Guarantors shall, at their expense, duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further agreements, documents and instruments, and do or cause to be done such further acts as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, to evidence, perfect, maintain and enforce the Lien in the Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof and benefits intended to be conferred as contemplated by, and to otherwise effectuate the provisions or purposes of, this Indenture and the Security Documents.

Section 4.21.                         Failure to Receive Approvals in Connection with Scioto Downs.

(a)           If prior to June 1, 2012, (i) neither MTR nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is granted authorization, approval or other similar permission by the Governor, legislature, the Ohio Lottery Commission or other regulatory authority of the State of Ohio enabling the installation and operation video lottery terminals at Scioto Downs Racetrack in Columbus, Ohio (the “Ohio License”), the Issuer shall; or (ii) the Issuer reasonably determines that it is unlikely that MTR or its Restricted Subsidiaries will obtain the Ohio License prior to June 1, 2012, the Issuer may make an offer to repurchase $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes at a price in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to the date of purchase (the “Scioto Downs Offer”). In the event that the Issuer is required or otherwise elects to make the Scioto Downs Offer, the Issuer will within five (5) Business Days mail a notice to each Holder (with a copy to the Trustee) stating, among other things:

(1)           that neither MTR nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has been granted the Ohio License and, to the extent applicable, the Issuer has reasonably determined that it is unlikely that the Ohio License will be obtained prior to June 1, 2012, and a Scioto Downs Offer is being made

59

pursuant to this Section 4.21 and that $150.0 millions aggregate principal amount of Notes (or portions thereof) timely tendered will be accepted for payment;

(2)           the purchase price and the payment date for the Notes so purchased, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice;

(3)           that any Note (or portion thereof) accepted for payment (and for which payment has been duly provided on the payment date) pursuant to the Scioto Downs Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the payment date;

(4)           that any Notes (or portions thereof) not tendered will continue to accrue interest; and

(5)           the procedures that Holders must follow in order to tender their Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and the procedures that Holders must follow in order to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

(b)           The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Scioto Downs Offer provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Scioto Downs Offer provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such conflict.

(c)           On the payment date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

(1)           accept for payment $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Scioto Downs Offer (or if less than $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes are properly tendered, all Notes that are properly tendered);

(2)           deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Scioto Downs Offer (or if less than $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes are properly tendered, all Notes that are properly tendered); and

(3)           deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

(d)           The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the payment for such Notes, and the Trustee upon receipt of an Authentication Order will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof).

60

(e)           Prior to June 1, 2012, the provisions under this Indenture relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make a Scioto Downs Offer may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes.

(f)            The Trustee will select Notes for purchase on a pro rata basis, by lot or such other method determined by the Trustee in its discretion, unless otherwise required by law, applicable stock exchange requirements or as may be required by the Depositary’s procedures.

(g)           Until the Issuer or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries (x) has been granted the Ohio License or (y) has deposited payment for the Scioto Downs Offer with the Paying Agent, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into a Credit Facility (including the New Credit Agreement) or other agreement relating to Indebtedness of the Issuer that contains prohibitions or restrictions on the Issuer’s ability to effect a Scioto Downs Offer.

Section 4.22.                         Excess Cash Flow.

(a)           Within 15 days after the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations for the filing of an annual report on Form 10-K if the Issuer were required to file such Form (such date, the “Excess Cash Flow Offer Trigger Date”), with respect to any Excess Cash Flow Period, so long as (i) the Consolidated Total Debt Ratio of MTR and its Restricted Subsidiaries is equal to or greater than 4.0:1.0 and (ii) the terms of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility under clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 4.09(b) permit the consummation of an Excess Cash Flow Offer, the Issuer will apply an amount equal to the Excess Cash Flow Amount to either:

(i)            prepay, repay, redeem or purchase Obligations under the Credit Facility and permanently reduce the related loan commitment thereunder; or

(ii)           make an offer to all Holders to purchase Notes pursuant to an Excess Cash Flow Offer on the dates and as provided below;

provided, that if the terms of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility under clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 4.09(b) do not permit the consummation of an Excess Cash Flow Offer with respect to any Excess Cash Flow Period, the failure to apply the Excess Cash Flow Amount in accordance with clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 4.22 shall not be a breach of this Indenture.

(b)           Notwithstanding Section 4.22(a), if the aggregate amount of the Excess Cash Flow Amount on any Excess Cash Flow Trigger Date is less than $2,000,000, then the Issuer shall not on such Excess Cash Flow Trigger Date be required to make an Excess Cash Flow Offer, but shall add such Excess Cash Flow Amount to the Excess Cash Flow Amount for the immediately succeeding year (and such increased Excess Cash Flow Amount for such immediately succeeding year shall in turn determine whether an Excess Cash Flow Offer shall be required for such next succeeding year).

(c)           Each offer to purchase Notes pursuant to this Section 4.22 (each, an “Excess Cash Flow Offer”) (i) shall be made to each Holder at the time of such offer, (ii) shall be made at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount of the Notes and (iii) shall remain open for a period of not less than twenty (20) Business Days (or any longer period as is required by law).

(d)           If the Issuer is required to make an Excess Cash Flow Offer pursuant to this Section 4.22, no later than 30 days after the Excess Cash Flow Offer Trigger Date, the Issuer will mail a notice of such Excess Cash Flow Offer to each Holder (with a copy to the Trustee) stating:

61

(1)           that the Issuer is offering to purchase Notes in an amount equal to the Excess Cash Flow Amount (determined after giving effect to any prepayments, repayments, redemptions or purchases of Obligations under the Credit Facility made pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above of this covenant) at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date);

(2)           the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed); and

(3)           the instructions, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with the covenant described hereunder, that a Holder must follow in order to tender its Notes.

(e)           If the aggregate purchase price of the Notes tendered in connection with any Excess Cash Flow Offer exceeds the Excess Cash Flow Amount allotted to their purchase, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis but in denominations of $2,000 principal amount or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof).

(f)            If the aggregate purchase price of the Notes tendered in connection with any Excess Cash Flow Offer is less than the Excess Cash Flow Amount allotted to their purchase, the Issuer shall be permitted to use the portion of the Excess Cash Flow Amount that is not applied to the purchase of Notes in connection with such Excess Cash Flow Offer for general corporate purposes or for any other purposes not prohibited by this Indenture.

(g)           The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Excess Cash Flow Offer. To the extent the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.22, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.22 by virtue thereof. The covenant and other provisions contained in this Indenture relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an Excess Cash Flow Offer may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes.

ARTICLE 6.
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 6.01.                         Events of Default.

(g)           the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Material Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Material Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law:

(i)            commences a voluntary case,

(ii)           consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

(iii)          consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or

64

(h)           a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree with respect to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Material Subsidiary or a group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Material Subsidiary, under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(i)            is for relief against such Person(s) in an involuntary case;

The foregoing will 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.

A Default under clause (e) or (f) of this Section 6.01 is not an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding notify the Issuer of the Default; provided that any Default under clause (e) or (f) of this Section 6.01 resulting from a default or acceleration with respect to Indebtedness will not be considered an Event of Default if such default or acceleration is cured or annulled, respectively, within 45 days of the receipt by the Issuer of such notice of default from the Trustee or Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes.   Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.”

65

The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any Default or Event of Default, its status and what action the Issuer and/or any Guarantor is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.  Simultaneous with such notice to the Trustee, the Issuer shall deliver to the West Virginia Lottery Commission written notice of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other documents governing the Notes Obligations.

Simultaneous with (A) the Trustee’s giving any notice to the Issuer relating to any Event of Default, and/or any event that with the giving of notice and passage of time will become an Event of Default, under this Article VI, and (B) with the Issuer’s giving any notice to the Trustee relating to any Event of Default, and/or any event that with the giving of notice and passage of time will become an Event of Default, under this Article VI, the Trustee (in the case of a notice described in (A)) and the Issuer (in the case of a notice described in (B)), respectively, shall deliver to the West Virginia Lottery Commission written notice of such Event of Default, and/or such event that with the giving of notice and passage of time will become an Event of Default.  The address to be used to give such simultaneous notice to the West Virginia Lottery Commission shall be as follows:

West Virginia Lottery Commission

312 MacCorkle Ave SE

Charleston, WV 25314

Attention: John Melton, General Counsel

provided, however, that the West Virginia Lottery Commission may change its address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the Issuer and Guarantors and to the Trustee at their notices as provided in Section 13.02; and provided, further, that if the Issuer or any Guarantor, or the Trustee, respectively, shall designate additional or different addresses as permitted by Section 13.02, then, in the case of each such designation, the Issuer, Guarantor, or Trustee, as the case may be, shall provide a copy of such designation to the West Virginia Lottery Commission at its then applicable address as provided in this Section 6.01.

Section 6.02.                         Acceleration.

Subject to Section 6.12 and Section 6.13, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default resulting from Section 6.01(g) or (h)) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class may accelerate the maturity of all the Notes by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee, if given by the Holders) specifying the Event of Default and that it is a “notice of acceleration” and on the fifth Business Day after delivery of such notice, the principal amount, together with any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on all of the Notes then outstanding, will become immediately due and payable.  In case an Event of Default resulting from Section 6.01(g) or (h) shall occur, the Notes (including any accrued interest and, if applicable, Additional Interest, thereon) shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the Holders.

66

Section 6.03.                         Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The 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 Trustee or any Holder of a Note 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.  All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04.                         Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive an existing Event of Default or Default and its consequences hereunder if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree except (i) a continuing Default in the payment of principal of premium or interest or Additional Interest, if any, on a Note or (ii) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder of Notes affected.  Upon any such waiver, such Default or Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05.                         Control by Majority.

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it.  However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may 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 indemnification or security satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.  Without limiting the other provisions of this Section, and subject to the Trustee’s right to receive indemnification or security in accordance with this Section, 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, direct the Trustee to credit bid the obligations under the Notes at any bankruptcy or foreclosure sale.

Section 6.06.                         Limitation on Suits.

A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees only if:

(a)           the Holder of a Note gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(b)           the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

67

(c)           such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

(d)           the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity; and

(e)           during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

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

Section 6.07.                         Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium and Additional Interest, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), 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 6.08.                         Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as Trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal to the extent lawful, and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09.                         Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07.  To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or any bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise.  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any agreement, plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

68

Section 6.10.                         Priorities.

If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

First:  to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07, including payment of all compensation, expense and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

Second:  to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium and Additional Interest, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the applicable Notes for principal, premium and Additional Interest, if any and interest, respectively; and

Third:  to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

Section 6.11.                         Undertaking for Costs.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.  This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

Section 6.12.                         Redemption Provision Defaults.

Notwithstanding the above, for purposes of this Article 6, if any Event of Default occurs with respect to mandatory or optional redemption provisions included solely in any Additional Notes as contemplated by Section 2.14 (a “Redemption Provision Default”), such Redemption Provision Default shall constitute an Event of Default only with respect to the Additional Notes containing such mandatory or optional redemption provisions and such Additional Notes shall be considered to be Indebtedness for purposes of Section 6.01(e).  In addition, (i) solely with respect to any Redemption Provision Default, all references to the Holders of Notes set forth in this Article 6 (including, without limitation, any applicable voting and consent thresholds regarding notice, waiver, acceleration, remedies, direction of the Trustee and limitations on suits), shall be deemed to refer only to the Holders of the Additional Notes subject to such Redemption Provision Default and (ii) solely with respect to any Default under Section 6.01(e) that occurs as a result of a Redemption Provision Default, all references to the Holders of Notes set forth in this Article 6 (including, without limitation, any applicable voting and consent thresholds regarding notice, waiver, acceleration, remedies, direction of the Trustee and limitations on suits), shall be deemed to refer only to the Holders of Notes other than the Additional Notes subject to such Redemption Provision Default.

69

Section 6.13.                         Reporting Defaults.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the failure to comply with the reporting obligations described in Section 4.03 and for any failure to comply with the requirements of Section 314(a) of the TIA, will for the 365 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the principal amount of the Notes at a rate equal to 1.00% per annum.  The Additional Interest will be payable in the same manner and subject to the same terms as other interest payable under this Indenture.  The Additional Interest will accrue on all outstanding Notes from and including the date on which an Event of Default relating to a failure to comply with the reporting obligations under Section 4.03 or TIA § 314(a) first occurs to but excluding the 365th day thereafter (or such earlier date on which the Event of Default relating to such reporting obligations is cured or waived).  If the Event of Default resulting from such failure to comply with the reporting obligations is continuing on such 365th day, such Additional Interest will cease to accrue and the Notes will be subject to the other remedies provided under this Article 6.

ARTICLE 7.
TRUSTEE

Section 7.01.                         Duties of Trustee.

(a)           If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(b)           Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i)            the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(ii)           in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee pursuant to the requirements of this Indenture.  However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions specifically required to be furnished to it hereunder to determine whether or not they substantially conform to the procedural requirements of this Indenture.

(c)           The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i)            this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;

(ii)           the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii)          the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05.

70

(d)           Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 7.01.

(e)           No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or 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 it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.  The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

(f)            The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer.  Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

Section 7.02.                         Rights of Trustee.

(a)           The Trustee may rely upon any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person.  The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

(b)           Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.  The Trustee may consult with counsel of its own selection with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel.

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

(d)           The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

(e)           Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Issuer.

(f)            The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(g)           At any time that the Trustee is not the Collateral Agent hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreement or Security Documents, the Trustee shall have no duties of the Collateral Agent and shall have no liability for the acts or failure to act of the Collateral Agent thereunder, and the Collateral Agent, at anytime that it is not also the Trustee, shall have no duties of the Trustee and shall have no liability for the acts or failures to act of the Trustee.

Section 7.03.                         Individual Rights of Trustee.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.  However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee or resign.  Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties.  The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

Section 7.04.                         Trustee’s Disclaimer.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

Section 7.05.                         Notice of Defaults.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after the Trustee obtains actual knowledge of such Default or Event or Default.  Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

Section 7.06.                         Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes.

Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted).  The Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b)(2).  The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c).

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed to the Issuer and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d).  The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange or delisted therefrom.

Section 7.07.                         Compensation and Indemnity.

The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee as agreed upon in writing from time to time compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder.  The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services.  Such expenses shall include the compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

72

The Issuer shall fully indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer or any Holder or any other person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.  The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity.  Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Issuer is actually prejudiced by failure of the Trustee to provide timely notice of claims of which a Responsible Officer has actual notice.  The Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense.  The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel.  The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee.  Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(g) or (h) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) shall constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.

Section 7.08.                         Replacement of Trustee.

A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.

The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuer.  The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing.  The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:

(a)           the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

(b)           the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(c)           a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(d)           the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

73

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 20% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition at the expense of the Issuer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer.  Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.  The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders.  The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid.  Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.09.                         Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

Any business entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to all or substantially all of its corporate trust business, shall be the successor Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture and any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the 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 Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which is anywhere provided in the Notes or in this Indenture.

Section 7.10.                         Eligibility; Disqualification.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA §§ 310(a)(1), (2) and (5).  The Trustee is subject to TIA § 310(b).

Section 7.11.                        Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer.

The Trustee is subject to TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b).  A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

ARTICLE 8.
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 8.01.                         Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The Issuer may, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 applied to all outstanding Notes and all obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their Note Guarantees upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

Section 8.02.                         Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuer shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and all obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their Note Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”).  For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:  (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.04, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments solely in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, Additional Interest, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith and (d) this Article 8.  Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03.

Section 8.03.                         Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18, 4.19, 4.20, 4.21, and 4.22 and Section 5.01 with respect to the outstanding Notes and have all Liens on the Collateral securing the Notes released on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes).  For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby.  In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, Sections 6.01(c) through 6.01(k), except for Sections 6.01(g) and

75

6.01(h) with respect to the Issuer (but not with respect any Restricted Subsidiary), shall not constitute Events of Default.

Section 8.04.                         Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 to the outstanding Notes:

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

(a)           the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in United States dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, Additional Interest or premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be; and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(b)           in the case of an election under Section 8.02, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States stating that (i) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(c)           in the case of an election under Section 8.03, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(d)           no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any other similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness) and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);

(e)           such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness to be defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Issuer or any of the Guarantors is a party or by which the Issuer or any of the Guarantors is bound;

(f)            the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors of the Issuer or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Issuer or others; and

76

(g)           the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as applicable, have been complied with.

The Collateral will be released from the Lien securing the Notes, as provided in Section 11.02, upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with this Section 8.04.

Section 8.05.                         Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 8.06, all money and non-callable U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and Additional Interest, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06.                         Repayment to Issuer.

Subject to any applicable abandoned of property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, Additional Interest, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer 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 Issuer 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 Issuer.

Section 8.07.                         Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any

77

order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, Additional Interest, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 9.
AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.01.                         Without Consent of Holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents without the consent of any Holder of a Note to:

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

(b)           provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders of the Notes or Note Guarantees, as applicable, by a Successor to the Issuer or such Guarantor pursuant to Article 5;

(e)           provide for the release or addition of Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement;

(f)            add to the covenants of the Issuer or any Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer or any Guarantor;

(g)           make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights of any Holder under this Indenture or Security Documents;

(h)           comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

(i)            conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Note Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of notes” section of the Offering Memorandum, relating to the initial offering of the Notes, to the extent that such provision in that “Description of notes” (as confirmed by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee) was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Note Guarantee;

(j)            provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof; or

78

(k)           to remove redemption provisions included in any Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.14 that, pursuant to the terms of such redemption provisions, are no longer in effect.

In addition, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Trustee may enter into a new intercreditor agreement or amend the Intercreditor Agreement to provide for additional First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement.

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02(b), the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.02.                         With Consent of Holders of Notes.

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents, may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes); provided that such amendments may not, without the consent of the Holders of 75% in principal amount of the Notes outstanding, release all or substantially all of the Collateral other than in accordance with this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents.  Section 2.08 shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, with respect to the amendment, supplement or waiver of any mandatory or optional redemption provisions included in any Additional Notes as contemplated by Section 2.14, the references in the preceding paragraph to Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes shall be deemed to refer to a majority in principal amount of the Additional Notes which contain such mandatory or optional redemption provisions.

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02(b), the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental Indenture unless such amended or supplemental Indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture.

79

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver.  Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental Indenture or waiver.

Without the consent of each Holder of Notes affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(a)           reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(b)           reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note;

(c)           reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note;

(d)           reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note, waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note or change the time at which a Note may be redeemed other than changes to the covenants in Sections 4.10, 4.14, 4.21 and 4.22;

(e)           waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest, premium, or Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(f)            make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;

(g)           make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults; or

(h)           make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions.

Section 9.03.                         Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended or supplemental Indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect.

Section 9.04.                         Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note.  However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective.  From and after the date an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms, it shall bind every Holder of affected Notes.

80

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 the immediately preceding paragraph, 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 9.05.                         Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated.  The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06.                         Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.  The Issuer may not sign an amendment or supplemental Indenture until the Board of Directors approves it.  In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

ARTICLE 10.
NOTE GUARANTEES

Section 10.01.                  Note Guarantees.

(a)           Subject to the provisions of this Article 10, each Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, to each Holder of the Notes, to the extent lawful, and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes and all other obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture (including Section 7.07), the Notes (including, without limitation, interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Issuer or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding) and the Security Documents (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guarantor Obligations”).  Each Guarantor agrees (to the extent lawful) that the Guarantor Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under this Article 10 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guarantor Obligation.

(b)           Each Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) presentation to, demand of, and protest to the Issuer of any of the Guarantor Obligations and also waives (to the extent lawful) notice of protest for nonpayment.  Each Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) notice of any default under the Notes or the Guarantor Obligations.

81

(c)           Each Guarantor further agrees that its Note Guarantee constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Guarantor Obligations.

(d)           Except as set forth in Section 10.02 and Article 8, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Guarantor Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not (to the extent lawful) be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guarantor Obligations or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not (to the extent lawful) be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of any Holder 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, the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent for the Guarantor Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; (vi) any change in the ownership of the Issuer; (vii) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guarantor Obligations; or (viii) 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 such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

(e)           Each Guarantor agrees that its Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guarantor Obligations or such Guarantor is released from its Note Guarantee in compliance with Section 5.01, Section 10.02, Section 12.01 or Article 8.  Each Guarantor further agrees that its Note Guarantee 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, premium, if any, or interest or Additional Interest, if any, on any of the Guarantor Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.

(f)            In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any of the Guarantor Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Trustee or the Trustee on behalf of the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) (including interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding relating to the Issuer or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding).

(g)           Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guarantor Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guarantor Obligations guaranteed and (ii) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Guarantor Obligations, such Guarantor Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee.

82

(h)           Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.

(i)            Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantors shall be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect any Note Guarantee or any release, termination or discharge thereof and any such notation shall not be a condition to the validity of any Note Guarantee.

Section 10.02.                  Limitation on Liability; Termination, Release and Discharge.

(a)           Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Note Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

(b)           A Note Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and each Guarantor and its obligations under the Note Guarantee and this Indenture shall be released and discharged:

(i)            in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (by way of merger, consolidation, or otherwise,) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Guarantor, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10;

(ii)           in connection with any sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Guarantor, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 and the Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer as a result of the sale or other disposition;

(iii)          if the Issuer designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.20; or

(iv)          upon legal defeasance, covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section 8.02, Section 8.03, or Section 12.01.

(c)           If any Guarantor is released from its Note Guarantee, any of its Subsidiaries that are Guarantors will be released from their Note Guarantees, if any, and it and any of its Subsidiaries will be released from their obligations under the Security Documents.

(d)           In the case of any transaction described in Section 10.02(b)(i) or (b)(ii), the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.

(e)           The release of a Guarantor from its Note Guarantee and its obligations under this Indenture in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.02 shall not preclude the future application of Section 4.20 to such Person.

83

Section 10.03.                  Right of Contribution.

Subject to Section 10.04, each Guarantor agrees that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) in respect of the Guarantor Obligations, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the relative net worth of each Guarantor (including the Funding Guarantor) as of the date of such payment or distribution for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by that Funding Guarantor in discharging the Guarantor Obligations.  The provisions of this Section 10.03 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 10.04.                  No Subrogation.

Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any Guarantor hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Collateral Agent, the Trustee or any Holder for the payment of the Guarantor Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Issuer or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until the Guarantor Obligations are paid in full.  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guarantor Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Guarantor Obligations.

84

Intercreditor Agreement and such Security Documents.  As set forth in Section 5.7 of the Intercreditor Agreement, Holders of the Notes and other holders of Second Lien Obligations shall in certain circumstances have the right to purchase the First Lien Obligations from the holders thereof.

(d)           The Trustee and each Holder, by accepting the Notes and the Note Guarantees, acknowledges that, as more fully set forth in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral as now or hereafter constituted shall be held for the benefit of all the Holders, the Collateral Agent, the Trustee and the other Secured Parties, and that the Lien of this Indenture and the Security Documents in respect of such Persons is subject to and qualified and limited in all respects by the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and actions that may be taken thereunder.  The Issuer shall, and shall cause the Guarantors to, and each Guarantor shall, make all filings (including filings of continuation statements and amendments to financing statements that may be necessary to continue the effectiveness of such financing statements) or recordings and take all other actions as are necessary or required by the Security Documents to maintain (at the sole cost and expense of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries) the security interest created by the Security Documents in the Collateral (other than with respect to any Collateral the security interest in which is not required to be perfected under the Security Documents) as a perfected second-priority security interest subject only to Permitted Liens.

Section 11.02.                  Release of Liens on the Collateral.

(a)           Subject to the requirements of applicable law, including the TIA, the Liens on the Collateral shall automatically and without the need for any further action by any Person be released:

(i)            in whole or in part, as applicable, as to all or any portion of Property subject to such Liens which has been taken by eminent domain, condemnation or other similar circumstances;

(ii)           in whole upon:

(A)          satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as set forth in Section 12.01; or

(b)           The Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Issuer or any Guarantor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.  The Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for recording, filing, re-recording or refiling any financing statement,

86

continuation statement, document, instrument or other notice in any public office at any time or times or to otherwise take any action to perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest granted to it under the Security Documents or otherwise.

(c)           Where any provision of the Security Documents requires that additional property or assets be added to the Collateral, the Issuer shall, or shall cause the applicable Guarantors to, take any and all actions reasonably required to cause such additional property or assets to be added to the Collateral and, to the extent required, to create and maintain a valid and enforceable perfected second-priority security interest in such property or assets (subject to Permitted Liens) in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Holders and the other Secured Parties, in each case in accordance with and to the extent required under the Security Documents.

(d)           In taking any action under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, if requested, as a condition to take any action, an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such action does not violate this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement and the Trustee shall be fully protected relying thereon.

(e)           In acting under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee shall have all the protections, rights, indemnities and immunities given to it under this Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 11.04.                  Compliance With TIA.

(a)           To the extent applicable, the Issuer shall cause TIA § 313(b), relating to reports, and TIA § 314(d), relating to the release of property or securities from the lien and security interest of this Indenture and relating to the substitution thereof of any property or securities to be subjected to the lien and security interest of this Indenture, to be complied with.  Following qualification of this Indenture pursuant to the TIA, to the extent the Issuer is required to furnish to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to TIA § 314(b)(2), the Issuer shall furnish such opinion not more than 60 but not less than 30 days prior to each May 1.

The Collateral Agent is an intended third party beneficiary of this Article 11.

Section 11.06.                  Collateral Agent.

Wilmington Trust, National Association is appointed as Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and shall initially act as Collateral Agent under this Indenture and the Security Documents.  Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent will hold (directly or through co-trustees or agents), and will be entitled to enforce on behalf of the Holders of the Notes and holders of the other Second Lien Obligations, all Liens on the Collateral.  Except as provided in this Indenture or the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent will not be obligated:

(1)           to act upon directions purported to be delivered to it by any Person;

(2)           to foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any Lien; or

(3)           to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any or all of the Security Documents, the Liens created thereby or the Collateral.

87

For the avoidance of doubt, all of the rights, protections and immunities granted to the Trustee hereunder shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent acting hereunder and under the Security Documents.

Section 11.07.                  Replacement of Collateral Agent.

The Collateral Agent may resign by so notifying the Issuer in writing. The Holder or Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Collateral Agent by so notifying the Issuer and the Collateral Agent in writing and may appoint a successor Collateral Agent with the Issuer’s consent. The Issuer may remove the Collateral Agent if:

(a)           the Collateral Agent is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(b)           a receiver, Custodian or other public officer takes charge of the Collateral Agent or its property; or

(c)           the Collateral Agent becomes incapable of acting.

If the Collateral Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Collateral Agent for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Collateral Agent.  A successor Collateral Agent shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Collateral Agent and to the Company. Immediately after that and provided that all sums owing to the retiring Collateral Agent provided for in this Indenture have been paid, the retiring Collateral Agent shall transfer all property held by it as Collateral Agent to the successor Collateral Agent, subject to the Lien, if any, provided in Section 7.07, the resignation or removal of the retiring Collateral Agent shall become effective, and the successor Collateral Agent shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Collateral Agent under this Indenture. A successor Collateral Agent shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder.  If a successor Collateral Agent does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Collateral Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Collateral Agent (at the Issuer’s cost and expense), the Company or the Holder or Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent.  Notwithstanding replacement of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 11.07, the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Collateral Agent.

ARTICLE 12.
SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

(ii)           all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably

88

deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, and Additional Interest, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;

(b)           the Issuer or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture (including amounts payable under Section 7.07);

(c)           other than with respect to a discharge when the Notes have become due and payable, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and any similar deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of the Lien to secure such borrowings) and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than with respect to the borrowing of funds to be applied concurrently to make the deposit required to effect such satisfaction and discharge and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and in each case the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings); and

(d)           the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of this Section 12.01, the provisions of Section 12.02 and Section 8.06 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.

Section 12.02.                  Application of Trust Money.
