          (b) Compliance With Laws. The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply in all material respects with all material applicable statutes, regulations, orders and restrictions of the United States, any state, municipality or other governmental division thereof, and agencies and instrumentalities of the foregoing, in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its property (including, without limitation, applicable statutes, regulations, orders and restrictions relating to equal employment opportunities and environmental standards and controls), except such as are being contested in good faith.

          (c) Limitation on Restricted Payments. The Company will not, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, declare, order, make or set apart any sum for or pay any Restricted Payment, except as expressly permitted under the Senior Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof.

          (d) Transactions With Affiliates. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into any transaction (including the purchase, sale or exchange of property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate except upon fair and reasonable terms which are at least as favorable to the Company as would be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a non-Affiliate.

     SECTION 4. Events of Default; Suits for Enforcement.

          (a) An “Event of Default” shall occur if:

               (i) the Payor shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest payable on this Note, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by acceleration or otherwise and such default with respect to the payment of interest shall continue unremedied for five (5) days;

               (ii) the Payor shall fail to observe or perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Note or in any certificate, writing or other document delivered pursuant hereto (including, without limitation, the Warrants and the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement), and such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after Payor receives notice of such failure;

               (iii) any representation, warranty, certification or statement made by or on behalf of the Payor in this Note or in any certificate, writing or other document delivered pursuant hereto (including, without limitation, the Warrants and the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement) shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made;

               (iv) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary petition shall be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking (A) relief in respect of Payor or of a substantial part of Payor’s respective property or assets, under Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law (any such law, a “Bankruptcy Law”), (B) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for a substantial part of the property or assets of the Payor, or (C) the winding up or liquidation of the Payor, and such proceeding or petition shall continue undismissed for sixty (60) days, or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be entered; or

               (v) the Payor shall (A) voluntarily commence any proceeding or file any petition seeking relief under a Bankruptcy Law, (B) consent to the institution of or the entry of an order for relief against it, or fail to contest in a timely and appropriate manner, any proceeding or the filing of any petition described in clause (iv) of this Section 4(a), (C) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or

similar official for a substantial part of the property or assets of the Payor, (D) file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any such proceeding, (E) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (F) become unable, admit in writing its inability or fail generally to pay its debts as they become due or (G) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing.

          (b) Subject to Section 5, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 4(a)(iv) or 4(a)(v)) occurs and is continuing, the holders of at least a Majority in Interest, by written notice to the Company, may declare all unpaid principal of, and accrued interest on, all of the Notes to be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 4(a)(iv) or 4(a)(v) occurs, all principal of, and interest on, the Notes then outstanding shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of any holder. The holders of at least a Majority in Interest, by written notice to the Company, may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if (i) all existing Events of Default, other than nonpayment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes which have become due solely because of the acceleration, have been cured or waived, and (ii) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

          (c) Subject to Section 4(d)and Section 5, upon the occurrence of any one or more Events of Default, the holder of this Note may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in equity, action at law or by other appropriate proceeding in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Note, or may proceed to enforce the payment of this Note, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right it may have as holder of this Note.

          (d) The holders of a Majority in Interest may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the holders of the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on them. The holder of this Note may not pursue a remedy with respect to this Note unless the holders of at least a Majority in Interest consent to the pursuit of the remedy. A holder may not use the provision hereof to prejudice the rights of another holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another holder.

          (e) In case of any Event of Default, the Payor will pay to the holder of this Note such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses of such holders due to such Event of Default, including without limitation, costs of collection and reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel incurred in connection with any action in which the holder prevails.

          (f) A delay or omission by the holder of this 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. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

          (g) Subject to Sections 4(b) and 4(c), the holders of a Majority in Interest by notice to the Company may waive an existing Event of Default and its consequences, except an Event of Default under Sections 4(a)(iv) or 4(a)(v). Upon any such waiver, such Event of Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have

been cured for every purpose of the Notes, including this Note, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

     SECTION 5. Subordination.

          (a) The Indebtedness evidenced by this Note is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash or securities acceptable to holders of the Senior Indebtedness of all of the Company’s Senior Indebtedness. “Senior Indebtedness” shall mean (i) the Bank Indebtedness and (ii) Indebtedness of the Company, the guarantors under the Senior Credit Agreement or any of their respective Subsidiaries incurred to provide all or a portion of the purchase price or cost of construction of an asset to the extent expressly permitted under the Senior Credit Agreement.

          (b) Upon any receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors, bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement with creditors (whether or not pursuant to bankruptcy laws), sale of all or substantially all of the assets, dissolution, liquidation or any other marshaling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or in the event this Note shall be declared due and payable before its stated maturity, (i) no amount shall be paid by the Company, whether in cash or property in respect of this Note or the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, unless and until the full amount of any Senior Indebtedness then outstanding shall be paid in full in cash or securities acceptable to holders of the Senior Indebtedness, and (ii) no claim or proof of claim shall be filed with the Company by or on behalf of the holder of this Note which shall assert any right to receive any payments in respect of the principal of and interest on this Note except (x) as requested by the Bank Agent or (y) subject to the payment in full in cash or securities acceptable to holders of the Senior Indebtedness of all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding.

          (c) Until the Bank Indebtedness is paid in full in cash or securities acceptable to holders of the Senior Indebtedness, (i) no liens or security interests shall be taken to secure the obligations under this Note or the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement and any liens taken in violation of this provision shall be subject to release by the Bank Agent in its sole discretion, without notice, and the Bank Agent is appointed as the holder’s attorney-in-fact to effectuate such release, and (ii) no payment shall be made in respect of this Note or the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement.

          (d) Upon the payment in full in cash or securities acceptable to holders of the Senior Indebtedness of all Senior Indebtedness, the holder of this Note shall be subrogated to all rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive any further payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until this Note shall have been paid in full, and such payments or distributions received by the holder of this Note by reason of such subrogation, of cash, securities or other property which otherwise would be paid or distributed to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, shall between the Company and its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the one hand, and the holder of this Note, on the other hand, be deemed to be a payment by the Company on account of the Senior Indebtedness and not on account of this Note.

          (e) Until (i) the Bank Indebtedness is paid in full in cash or securities acceptable to holders of the Bank Indebtedness or (ii) the occurrence or commencement of any Event of Default under Sections 4(a)(iv) or 4(a)(v), provided that such Event of Default was not instigated, prosecuted or initiated by or with the participation and cooperation of the holder of this Note, the holder of this Note shall not, without the prior written consent of the Bank Agent, take any Enforcement Action with respect to this Note, and, upon the occurrence of an event contemplated by the foregoing clause (ii), the holder of this Note shall not, without the prior written consent of the Bank Agent, vote to accept a plan of liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, composition or extension that conflicts with this Section 5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Note shall limit the rights of the holder of this Note to initiate any suit or other action solely to prevent the running of any applicable statute of limitations or other similar restriction on claims. Any proceeds of any Enforcement Action obtained by the holder of this Note or payments received in violation of this Section 5 shall in any event be held in trust by it for the benefit of the Bank Agent and promptly paid or delivered to the Bank Agent in the form received until all Bank Indebtedness is paid in full. The Bank Agent may interpose the terms of this Agreement to enjoin or obtain dismissal of any Enforcement Actions initiated in violation of this Section 5(e).

          (f) The failure to make a payment on account of principal of or interest on this Note by reason of any provision of this Section 5 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 4. This Section 5 defines the relative rights of the holder of this Note and the holders of Senior Indebtedness. Nothing in this Section 5 shall (i) impair, as between the Company and the holder of this Note, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on this Note in accordance with its terms; (ii) effect the relative rights of the holder of this Note and creditors of the Company other than holders of Senior Indebtedness; or (iii) prevent the holder of this Note from exercising its available remedies upon an Event of Default, subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 5 of holders of Senior Indebtedness.

          (g) Upon any distribution of assets of the Company referred to in Section 5(b), the holder of this Note shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors, bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings are pending or a certificate of the receiver, trustee, custodian, agent or other Person making any distribution to the holder of this Note for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Company.

          (h) No rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination provisions contained in this Note shall at any time be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by an act of non-compliance by the Company with the terms of this Note. The holders of Senior Indebtedness may extend, renew, modify or amend the terms of the documents evidencing the Senior Indebtedness or any security therefor and release, sell or exchange such security and otherwise deal freely with the Company, all without affecting the liabilities and obligations of the parties to the Notes.

          (i) The holders of Bank Indebtedness have agreed to an amendment of the Senior Credit Agreement in reliance on this Section 5 and are entitled to the benefits of the provisions thereof. The holder of this Note acknowledges and agrees that each holder of the Senior Indebtedness and any representative of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the Bank Agent) are, and the Company, any guarantors of the Senior Indebtedness, their Subsidiaries and the holder of this Note hereby name such parties as, third party beneficiaries of the covenants and agreements of the Company and the holder of this Note set forth in this Section 5. Accordingly, any holder of Senior Indebtedness (or any representative thereof) shall be entitled to enforce any provisions of this Section 5 against the Company, any guarantors of the Senior Indebtedness and their Subsidiaries and the holder of this Note.
