ARTICLE 1

DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF GENERAL APPLICATION

SECTION 1.01.    Scope of Supplemental Indenture.

The changes, modifications and supplements to the Indenture effected by this Third Supplemental Indenture shall be applicable only with respect to, and shall govern only the terms of (and only the rights of the Holders, the obligations of the Company, the obligations of the Guarantor and the rights and obligations of the Trustee with respect to), the Securities, and shall not apply to any other securities that may be issued under the Base Indenture (or govern the rights of the holders or the obligations of the Company or the Guarantor with respect to any such other securities) unless a supplemental indenture with respect to such other securities specifically incorporates such changes, modifications and supplements. The provisions of this Third Supplemental Indenture shall, with respect to the Securities, supersede any corresponding provisions in the Indenture. Subject to the preceding sentence, and except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of the Indenture shall apply to the Securities and govern the rights of the Holders of the Securities, the obligations of the Company and the rights and obligations of the Trustee with respect thereto.

SECTION 1.02.    Definitions.

For all purposes of this Third Supplemental Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, all words, terms and phrases defined in the Indenture (but not otherwise defined herein) shall have the same meanings as in the Indenture.

ARTICLE 2

GUARANTEE

SECTION 2.01.    The Guarantee.

The Guarantor hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees to the Trustee and each Holder of a Security the full and prompt payment of all monetary obligations of the Company under the Security and the Indenture, whether for principal of, premium (if any) and interest on any such Security, expenses, indemnification or otherwise, including monetary obligations to the Trustee (such obligations being referred to herein as the “Obligations”), when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, on an interest payment date, by acceleration, redemption, repayment or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of such Security and of the Indenture (the “Guarantee”). In case of the failure of the Company punctually to pay any such Obligations, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, on an interest payment date, upon acceleration, redemption, repayment or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company. The Guarantor further agrees that its guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection).

2

SECTION 2.02.    Guarantee Unconditional, etc.

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of any Security or the Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of any Security or the Indenture, or any waiver, modification, consent or indulgence granted with respect thereto by the Holder of such Security or the Trustee, the recovery of any judgment against the Company or any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstances which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest or notice with respect to any such Security or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by payment in full of the Obligations. The Guarantor further agrees, to the fullest extent that it lawfully may do so, that, as between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or prohibition extant under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law of any jurisdiction preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby.

SECTION 2.03.    Subordination.

The Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that its obligation to make payments of the Obligations hereunder constitutes a senior unsecured obligation of the Guarantor ranking (a) equally in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Guarantor from time to time outstanding, (b) senior in right of payment with all existing and future expressly subordinated indebtedness of the Guarantor from time to time outstanding and (c) junior in right of payment with any future secured indebtedness of the Guarantor to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.

SECTION 2.04.    Reinstatement.

This Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment on any Security, in whole or in part, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored to the Company or the Guarantor upon the bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, the Guarantor or otherwise.

SECTION 2.05.    Subrogation.

The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holder of any Security against the Company in respect of any amounts paid to such Holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce, or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of, and premium (if any) and interest on all Securities and all other amounts due and owing under the Indenture shall have been paid in full.

SECTION 2.06.    No Waiver; Remedies.

No failure on the part of the Trustee or any Holder to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

State Tech. §§ 301-309), as amended from time to time, or other applicable law) on this Third Supplemental Indenture shall have the same validity and effect as a signature affixed by the party’s hand.
