Upon the issuance of any new Notes under this Section 2.7, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee or the Registrar) connected therewith.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.7 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 2.7 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 2.8. Outstanding Notes; Determinations of Holders’ Action.

Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee, except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, and those described in this Section 2.8 as not outstanding. If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7, the replaced Note ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser unaware that such Note has been replaced.

Subject to Section 2.12(f), a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate thereof holds the Note; provided, however, that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have given or concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, or other Act hereunder, Notes owned by the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or such other obligor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected conclusively in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, only Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Subject to the

foregoing, only Notes outstanding at the time of such determination shall be considered in any such determination.

If the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, on a redemption date, Fundamental Change Purchase Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed, repurchased or maturing, as the case may be, then on and after that date, such Notes (or portions thereof) shall cease to be outstanding and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on such Notes (or portions thereof) shall cease to accrue.

Section 2.9. Temporary Notes.

Pending the preparation of definitive Notes, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Officers executing such Notes may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

If temporary Notes are issued, the Company shall cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

Section 2.10. Cancellation.

All Notes surrendered for payment, repurchase by the Company pursuant to Article V, redemption or registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 2.10, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with the Trustee’s customary procedure.

Section 2.11. Persons Deemed Owners.

Prior to due presentment of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the person in whose name such Note is

registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, Fundamental Change Purchase Price, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Note, and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 2.12. Additional Transfer and Exchange Requirements.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities.

(i) Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for interests in the Global Securities only if (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Securities or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act, if so required by applicable law or regulation, and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 calendar days or (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar receives a request from the Depository that the notes be issued in definitive form. In any such case, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to deliver promptly), authenticate and deliver Certificated Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Securities in exchange therefor. Only Restricted Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Restricted Global Securities, and only Unrestricted Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Unrestricted Global Securities. Certificated Securities issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities shall be registered in such names and shall be in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver or cause to be delivered such Certificated Securities to the Persons in whose name such Notes are so registered. Such exchange shall be effected in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

(ii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.12(a)(i), a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Certificated Securities. In the event that Certificated Securities are issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities in accordance with Section 2.12(a)(i), and, on or after such event, Certificated Securities are presented by a Holder to the Registrar with a request:

(x) to register the transfer of the Certificated Securities to a person who will take delivery thereof in the form of Certificated Securities only; or

(y) to exchange such Certificated Securities for an equal principal amount of Certificated Securities of other authorized denominations,

such Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested; provided, however, that the Certificated Securities presented or surrendered for register of transfer or exchange:

(i) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in accordance with the proviso in the first paragraph of Section 2.6(a); and

(ii) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security, such request shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable:

(A) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, or such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate);

(B) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to a person the Holder reasonably believes is a QIB in compliance with Rule 144A, pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 (if available) or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or

(C) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to an Institutional Accredited Investor (other than to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A), that, prior to such transfer, furnishes to the Trustee a certificate containing certain representations and warranties by such Institutional Accredited Investor (in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B), an Opinion of Counsel if required by the Company or the Trustee and a certification to that effect from the Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate).

(c) Transfer of a Beneficial Interest in a Restricted Global Security for a Beneficial Interest in an Unrestricted Global Security. Any person having a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security may upon request, subject to the Applicable Procedures, transfer such beneficial interest to a person who is required or permitted to take delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Global Security. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions, or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depositary, from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of any person having a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security and the following additional information and documents in such form as is customary for the Depositary

from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of the person having such beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security (all of which may be submitted by facsimile or electronically):

(i) if such beneficial interest is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from the Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or

(ii) if such beneficial interest is being transferred pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144, a certification to that effect from the Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate), the Trustee, as the Registrar, shall reduce or cause to be reduced the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Global Security by the appropriate principal amount and shall increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the Unrestricted Global Security by a like principal amount. Such transfer shall otherwise be effected in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. If no Unrestricted Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to deliver promptly), authenticate and deliver an Unrestricted Global Security.

(d) Transfers of Certificated Securities for Beneficial Interests in Global Securities. In the event that Certificated Securities are issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities and, thereafter, the events or conditions specified in Section 2.12(a)(i) which required such exchange shall cease to exist, the Company shall mail notice to the Trustee and to the Holders stating that Holders may exchange Certificated Securities for interests in Global Securities by complying with the procedures set forth in this Indenture and briefly describing such procedures and the events or circumstances requiring that such notice be given. Thereafter, if Certificated Securities are presented by a Holder to a Registrar with a request:

(x) to register the transfer of such Certificated Securities to a person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Security, which request shall specify whether such Global Security will be a Restricted Global Security or an Unrestricted Global Security, or

(y) to exchange such Certificated Securities for an equal principal amount of beneficial interests in a Global Security, which beneficial interests shall be owned by the Holder transferring such Certificated Securities (provided that in the case of such an exchange, Restricted Certificated Securities may be exchanged only for Restricted Global Securities and Unrestricted Certificated Securities may be exchanged only for Unrestricted Global Securities), the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested by canceling such Certificated Security and causing, or directing the Registrar to cause, the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Security to be increased accordingly and, if no such Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to deliver promptly) authenticate and deliver a new Global Security;

provided, however, that the Certificated Securities presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange:

(1) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in accordance with the proviso in the first paragraph of Section 2.6(a);

(2) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security to be transferred for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, such request shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable:

(i) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or

(ii) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate);

(3) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security to be transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security, such request shall be accompanied by a certification from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) to the effect that such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to a person the Holder reasonably believes is a QIB (which, in the case of an exchange, shall be such Holder) in compliance with Rule 144A or, in the case of a transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor (other than to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A), by a certificate containing certain representations and warranties by such Institutional Accredited Investor (in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B), an Opinion of Counsel if required by the Company or the Trustee and a certification to that effect from the Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); and

(4) in the case of an Unrestricted Certificated Security to be transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, such request need not be accompanied by any additional information or documents.

(e) Legends.

(1) Except as permitted by the following paragraphs (2), (3) and (4), each Global Security and Certificated Security (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or upon registration of transfer or replacement thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the form called for by footnote 2 to Exhibit A attached hereto (each a “Transfer Restricted Security”), for so long as it is required by this Indenture to bear such legend. Each Transfer Restricted Security shall have attached thereto a certificate (a “Transfer Certificate”) in substantially the form called for by footnote 4 to Exhibit A attached hereto.

(2) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (x) pursuant to Rule 144 or (y) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act:

(i) in the case of any Restricted Certificated Security, any Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Restricted Certificated Security for an Unrestricted Certificated Security, or (under the circumstances described in Section 2.12(d)) to transfer such Restricted Certificated Security to a transferee who shall take such Note in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, and in each case shall rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Note; and

(ii) in the case of any beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security, the Trustee shall permit the beneficial owner thereof to transfer such beneficial interest to a transferee who shall take such interest in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security and shall rescind any restriction on transfer of such beneficial interest; provided, that such Unrestricted Global Security shall continue to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(a)(ii).

(3) Upon the expiration of the holding period pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, the Company shall remove any restriction of transfer on such Note, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Notes that do not bear such legend and that do not have a Transfer Certificate attached thereto.

(f) Transfers to the Company. Nothing contained in this Indenture or in the Notes shall prohibit the sale or other transfer of any Notes (including beneficial interests in Global Securities) to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company shall ensure that if any such Notes shall be reissued, such reissuance shall comply with applicable law and any Notes reissued as Transfer Restricted Securities shall be assigned a different “CUSIP” number than any other Notes.

(g) Amendments to Rule 144. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, if Rule 144 as promulgated under the Securities Act is amended to shorten the one-year period under Rule 144, then the references to “one year” in the restrictive legend of each Transfer Restricted Security shall be deemed to refer to such shorter period from and after receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 2.12(d)(2) from the Company or from a Holder of a Transfer Restricted Security; provided that a Transfer Restricted Security shall not be deemed to refer to such shorter period if to do so would be prohibited by, or would otherwise cause a violation of, the U.S. federal securities laws applicable at the time. As soon as practicable after a Responsible Officer of the Company receives notice of the effectiveness of any such amendment to shorten the one-year period under Rule 144, unless causing the Transfer Restricted Securities to refer to such shorter period would otherwise be prohibited by, or would otherwise cause a violation of, the U.S. federal securities laws applicable at the time, the Company shall provide to the Trustee the documents described in Section 2.12(d)(2) respecting the effectiveness of such amendment.

Section 2.13. CUSIP Numbers.

The Company may issue the Notes with one or more “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of repurchase or redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a repurchase or redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such repurchase or redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

Section 2.14. Payment of PIK Interest .

(a) The Company shall be entitled make a payment of PIK Interest under this Indenture, at its option, either in cash or by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Notes or issuing PIK Notes.

(b) With respect to the issuance of any PIK Notes, no later than the relevant Interest Payment Date, the Company shall deliver to the trustee and the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee), (i) if such PIK Notes are definitive Notes, the required amount of new definitive Notes (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar) and an order to authenticate and deliver such PIK Notes or (ii) if such PIK Notes are Global Notes, an order to increase the outstanding principal amount of Notes by the required amount (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar) (or, if necessary pursuant to the requirements of the Depositary or otherwise, new Global Notes and an order to authenticate and deliver such new Global Notes). Any PIK Notes shall, after being executed and authenticated pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, be (i) if such PIK Notes are definitive Notes, mailed to the person entitled thereto as shown on the Register for the definitive Notes as of the relevant Record Date or (ii) if such PIK Notes are Global Notes, deposited into the account of the Holder or Holders thereof as of the relevant Record Date.

(c) Alternatively, in connection with any payment of PIK Interest, the Company may direct the Paying Agent to make appropriate amendments to the schedule of principal amounts of the relevant Global Notes outstanding for which PIK Notes will be issued and arrange for deposit into the account specified by the Holder or Holders thereof as of the relevant Record Date.

(d) Following an increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Global Notes as a result of a payment of PIK Interest, the Global Notes will bear interest on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such payment. Any PIK Notes issued in certificated form or as new Global Notes will be dated as of the applicable interest payment date and will bear interest from and after such date. All Notes issued pursuant to a payment of PIK Interest will mature on June 1, 2011 and will be governed by, and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of, this Indenture and shall have the same rights and benefits as the Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date. Any PIK Notes will be issued with the description “PIK” on the face of such PIK Note.

(e) Payment shall be made in such form and terms as specified in this Section 2.14 and the Company shall and the Paying Agent may take additional steps as is necessary to effect such payment.

(a) In the event that a Fundamental Change shall occur at any time prior to the Stated Maturity, each Holder shall have the right, at the Holder’s option, but subject to the provisions of this Section 5.1, to require the Company to purchase, and upon the exercise of such right, the Company shall purchase, all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion of the principal amount thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, as directed by such Holder pursuant to this Section 5.1, on the date designated by the Company (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Date”) that is a Business Day no later than 35 Business Days after the date of notice pursuant to Section 5.1(b) of the occurrence of a Fundamental Change (subject to extension to comply with applicable law). The Company shall be required to purchase such Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Purchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Price”). In the event that a Fundamental Change Purchase Date is a date that is after any Regular Record Date but on or before the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Company shall be required to pay accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the holder of the repurchased Note on the Regular Record Date if different from the Holder on the Regular Record Date.

(b) No later than 20 Business Days after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall mail a written notice of the Fundamental Change by first class mail to the Trustee (and the Paying Agent if the Trustee is not then acting as Paying Agent) and to each Holder at its address shown in the Register of the Registrar, and to beneficial owners as required by applicable law. The notice shall include a form of Fundamental Change Purchase Notice to be completed by the Holder and shall briefly state, as applicable:

(i) the date of such Fundamental Change and, briefly, the events constituting such Fundamental Change;

(ii) the date by which the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice must be delivered to the Paying Agent in order for a Holder to exercise the purchase right pursuant to this Section 5.1;

(viii) the procedures the Holder must follow to exercise rights under this Section 5.1;

(ix) the procedures for withdrawing a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, including a form of notice of withdrawal;

(x) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such Fundamental Change Purchase Price, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on Notes surrendered for purchase by the Company shall cease to accrue on and after the Fundamental Change Purchase Date; and

(xi) the CUSIP number(s) of the Notes.

At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the Company’s notice of a Fundamental Change at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Company makes such request at least five Business Days (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to the date by which such notice of purchase right must be given to the Holders in accordance with this Section 5.1(b); provided, further, that the text of such notice shall be prepared by the Company.

If any of the Notes is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord with the procedures of the Depositary applicable to the purchase of Global Securities.

Simultaneously with delivering the written notice pursuant to this Section 5.1(b), the Company shall make a Public Notice containing all information specified in such written notice.

(c) A Holder may exercise its rights specified in clause (a) of this Section 5.1 upon delivery of a written notice (which shall be in substantially the form included on the reverse side of the Notes entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” hereto and which may be delivered by letter, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Global Securities, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the Applicable Procedures) of the exercise of such rights (a “Fundamental Change Purchase Notice”) to the Paying Agent at any time on or before the 20th Business Day after the date of the Company’s notice of the Fundamental Change (subject to extension to comply with applicable law).

The Fundamental Change Purchase Notice delivered by a Holder shall state (i) if Certificated Securities, the serial number or numbers of the Note or Notes which the Holder shall deliver to be purchased (if not certificated, the notice must comply with Applicable Procedures), (ii) the portion of the principal amount of the Note which the Holder shall deliver to be purchased, which portion must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof (or the entire principal amount of the Notes held by such Holder) and (iii) that such Note shall be purchased pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Notes and this Indenture.

Delivery of a Note (together with all necessary endorsements) to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfer or physical delivery prior to, on or after the Fundamental Change Purchase Date at the offices of the Paying Agent (or otherwise complying with the Applicable Procedures in the case of the Global Securities) is a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price therefor; provided, however, that such Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this Section 5.1 only if the Note so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform in all respects to the description thereof in the related Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, as determined by the Company.

The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this Section 5.1, a portion of a Note if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Provisions of the Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a Note also apply to the purchase of such portion of such Note.

Such Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall be paid to such Holder, subject to receipt of cash by the Paying Agent, promptly following the later of (i) the Fundamental Change Purchase Date with respect to such Note (provided the conditions in Section 5.1(c) have been satisfied) and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or delivery of such Note to the Paying Agent by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 5.1(c).

(b) A Fundamental Change Purchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice (which may be delivered by letter, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Global Securities, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the Applicable Procedures) of withdrawal delivered by the Holder to the Paying Agent at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date (or such later time as may be required by applicable law), specifying (i) the principal amount of the Note or portion thereof (which must be a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, (ii) if certificated Notes have been issued, the serial numbers of the withdrawn Notes, or if not certificated, such notice must comply with Applicable Procedures, and (ii) the principal amount, if any, which remains subject to the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice. If a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice has been properly withdrawn pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) prior to the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Company shall not be obligated to purchase those Notes so identified in such notice of withdrawal.

Section 5.3. Deposit of Fundamental Change Purchase Price.

Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Company shall irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on such Business Day) sufficient to pay the aggregate Fundamental Change Purchase Price of all the Notes or portions thereof which are to be purchased as of such Fundamental Change Purchase Date.

whether or not such Notes are delivered to the Paying Agent, and the rights of the Holders in respect thereof shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Purchase Price upon delivery of such Notes).

The Company shall make a Public Notice of the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased as a result of such Fundamental Change on or as soon as practicable after the Fundamental Change Purchase Date.

Section 5.4. Certificated Securities Purchased in Part.

Any Certificated Security that is to be purchased only in part shall be surrendered at the office of the Paying Agent (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing) and promptly after the Fundamental Change Purchase Date the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note, without charge, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the Note so surrendered that is not purchased.

Section 5.5. Covenant to Comply With Securities Laws Upon Purchase of Notes.

When complying with the provisions of Article V, and subject to any exemptions available under applicable law, the Company shall:

(a) if such offer or purchase constitutes an “issuer tender offer” for purposes of Rule 13e-4 (which term, as used herein, includes any successor provision thereto) under the Exchange Act at the time of such offer or purchase, (i) if applicable, comply with Rule 13e-4 and Rule 14e-1 (or any successor provision) under the Exchange Act and (ii) file the related Schedule TO (or any successor schedule, form or report) if required under the Exchange Act; and

(b) otherwise comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws so as to permit the rights and obligations under this ARTICLE V to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified therein.

Section 5.6. Repayment to the Company.

To the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 5.3 exceeds the aggregate Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the Notes or portions thereof which the Company is obligated to purchase as of the Fundamental Change Purchase Date then, promptly after the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Paying Agent shall return any such excess to the Company together with interest, if any, thereon.

The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, pay interest on overdue principal and overdue installments of interest and Additional Interest, if any, at the rate borne by the Notes per annum.

PIK Interest shall be paid in the manner provided in Section 2.14. Any payment of PIK Interest shall be considered paid, if not paid in cash, on the date it is due if on such date (1) if PIK Notes (including PIK Notes that are Global Notes) have been issued therefor, such PIK Notes have been authenticated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and (2) if the payment of PIK Interest is made by increasing the principal amount of Global Notes then authenticated, the Trustee has increased the principal amount of Global Notes then authenticated by the required amount.

The Company will not be required to make any payment on the Notes due on any day which is not a Business Day until the next succeeding Business Day. The payment made on the next Business Day will be treated as though it were paid on the original due date and no interest will be payable on the payment date for the additional period of time.

Subject to Section 5.1, the Company shall pay interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes to the Person in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date next preceding the corresponding Interest Payment Date. Any such interest and Additional Interest, if any, not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may be paid (a) to the Person in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest and Additional Interest, if any, to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the Holders not less than 10 calendar days prior to such Special Record Date or (b) at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange.

In the event the Company or Parent is at any time no longer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it shall continue to provide the Trustee with reports containing substantially the same information as would have been required to be filed with the SEC had the Company or Parent continued to have been subject to such reporting requirements. In such event, such reports shall be provided at the times the Company or Parent would have been required to provide reports had it continued to have been subject to such reporting requirements. The Company and Parent also shall comply with the other provisions of TIA Section 314(a). Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s or Parent’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively on Officers’ Certificates). The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to review such reports, information or documents. In the event that the Company or Parent shall provide the Trustee with any such report and shall not have filed such report on EDGAR, the Trustee shall promptly mail copies of such reports to each Holder (other than reports provided solely pursuant to TIA Section 314(a)).

(b) Each of the Company and Parent intends to file the reports referred to in paragraph (a) above in this Section 6.2 hereof with the SEC in electronic form pursuant to Regulation S-T of the SEC using the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) system. Compliance with the foregoing shall constitute delivery by the Company or Parent of such reports to the Trustee in compliance with the provisions of Section 6.2(a) and TIA Section 314(a). The Trustee shall have no duty to search for or obtain any electronic or other filings that the Company or Parent makes with the SEC, regardless of whether such filings are periodic, supplemental or otherwise. Delivery of the reports, information and documents to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.2(b) shall be solely for the purposes of compliance with this

Section 6.2(b) and with TIA Section 314(a). The Trustee’s receipt of such reports, information and documents shall not constitute notice to it of the consent thereof or of any matter determinable from the content thereof, including the Company’s or Parent’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder, as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely upon Officers’ Certificates.

Section 6.3. Compliance Certificate.

The Company and Parent shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 calendar days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company or Parent, as applicable, an Officers’ Certificate, stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof, the Company is in compliance with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture.

The Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, an office or agency of the Trustee, Registrar and Paying Agent where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, repurchase or redemption and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The office of the Trustee presently located at 100 Wall Street, Suite 1600, New York 10005, shall initially be such office or agency for all of the aforesaid purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and of any change in the location, of any such office or agency (other than a change in the location of the office of the Trustee). If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the address of the Trustee set forth in Section 14.2.

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan.

Section 6.6. Delivery of Information Required Under Rule 144A.

Prior to the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales of the Notes under Rule 144 of the Securities Act (or any successor provision), upon the request of a Holder or any beneficial owner of Notes, the Company shall, during any period in which it is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, promptly furnish or cause to be furnished the information required pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to such Holder or any beneficial owner of Notes, or to a prospective purchaser of any such security designated by any

such holder, as the case may be, to the extent required to permit compliance by such Holder or holder with Rule 144A under the Securities Act in connection with the resale of any such security. Whether a person is a beneficial owner shall be determined by the Company to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction.

Section 6.7. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal amount or Fundamental Change Purchase Price in respect of Notes, or any interest and Additional Interest, if any, on such amounts, as contemplated herein, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 6.8. Statement by Officers as to Default.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as practicable and in any event within five Business Days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default that is continuing, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the details of such Default or Event of Default and the action which the Company proposes to take with respect thereto.

(b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(c) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, sale, lease or other disposition and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, comply with this ARTICLE VII and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been satisfied.

For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise) of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries, which, if such assets were owned by the Company, together with the assets of all of the other Subsidiaries of the Company, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company unless such transfer is to the Company or another Subsidiary.

The successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, is merged or the successor Person to which such conveyance, transfer, sale, lease or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor had been named as the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, herein; and thereafter, except in the case of a conveyance, transfer, sale, lease or other disposition and any obligations the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, may have under a supplemental indenture, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, shall be discharged from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees, as applicable. Subject to Section 11.6, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, the Trustee and the successor Person shall enter into a supplemental indenture to evidence the

succession and substitution of such successor Person and such discharge and release of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Indenture or in the Notes or the Note Guarantees will prevent:

(1) any consolidation or merger of a Subsidiary Guarantor with or into the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor;

(2) any sale or conveyance of the property of a Subsidiary Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor; or

(3) any Subsidiary Guarantor may consolidate with or merge with or into any other person or convey, transfer, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company so long as such Subsidiary or Affiliate (1) shall be organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia, (2) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the obligations of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, under the Notes, the Note Guarantees (in the case of the Subsidiary Guarantors), this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Registration Rights Agreement and (3) such Subsidiary or Affiliate is an entity whose sole permitted business purpose is to own the real property and other assets now owned by such Subsidiary Guarantor.

(ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of the property of either; or

(iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary,

and the order of decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days; and

Section 8.2. Acceleration.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(i) or Section 8.1(j) with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing (including an Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(i) or Section 8.1(j) with respect to one or more Significant Subsidiaries), the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of (including any principal on account of PIK Interest), and accrued and unpaid interest (including any accrued PIK Interest) and Additional Interest, if any, on, all the Notes to be immediately due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such accelerated amount shall be due and payable immediately.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(i) or Section 8.1(j) occurs with respect to the Company and is continuing, the principal of (including any principal on account of PIK Interest), and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, (including any accrued PIK Interest) on, all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, by notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other Holder) may rescind an

acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, or any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, that have become due solely as a result of acceleration and if all amounts due to the Trustee under Section 9.7 have been paid. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 8.3. Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of the principal plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, 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 the Trustee does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of the Notes in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder 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 available remedies are cumulative.

Section 8.4. Waiver of Past Defaults.

Subject to Section 8.7 and Section 11.2, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, by notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other Holder), may waive an existing Default and its consequences except:

(a) a Default described in Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(b); or

(b) a Default in respect of any provision of this Indenture or the Notes, which, under Section 11.2, cannot be amended or modified without the consent of each Holder affected thereby.

When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. This Section 8.4 shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)1(B) of the TIA and such Section 316(a)1(B) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.

Section 8.5. Control by Majority.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines in good faith is prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability unless the Trustee is offered indemnity satisfactory to it. This Section 8.5 shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)1(A) of the TIA and such Section 316(a)1(A) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.

Section 8.6. Limitation on Suits.

A Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(a) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing;

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

(c) such Holder or Holders offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably 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 such notice, request and offer of security or indemnity; and

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

A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of any other Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders).

Section 8.7. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of the principal, Fundamental Change Purchase Price, interest and Additional Interest, if any, in respect of the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes and in this Indenture, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected adversely without the consent of such Holder.

Section 8.8. Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default described in Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company or another obligor on the Notes for the whole amount owing with respect to the Notes and the amounts provided for in Section 9.7.

Section 8.9. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal, Fundamental Change Purchase Price, interest and Additional Interest, if any, in respect of the Notes shall then be due

and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of any such amount) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal, Fundamental Change Purchase Price, interest and Additional Interest, if any, and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel or any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 9.7) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official 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 the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 9.7.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 8.10. Priorities.

FIRST: to the Trustee and Collateral Trustee for amounts due under Section 9.7;

SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for the principal, Fundamental Change Purchase Price, interest and Additional Interest, if any as the case may be, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to such amounts due and payable on the Notes; and

THIRD: the balance, if any, to the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 8.10. At least 10 calendar days prior to such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Company a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.

Section 8.11. 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 Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant (other than the Trustee) 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 8.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 8.7 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding. This Section 8.11 shall be in lieu of Section 315(e) of the TIA and such Section 315(e) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.

If a Default occurs and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall give to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 calendar days after it occurs or, if later, within 15 calendar days after it is known to the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except in the case of a Default described in Section 8.1(a), Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(k), 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 interest of the Holders.

Section 9.7. Compensation and Indemnity.

The Company agrees to:

(a) pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited (to the extent permitted by law) by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

(b) reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the compensation and the reasonable expenses, advances and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its own negligence or willful misconduct; and

With regard to its indemnification rights under this Section 9.7(c) where the Company has assumed the defense in any action or proceeding, the Trustee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or proceeding and participate in the investigation and defense thereof, and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel; provided, however, that the Trustee may only employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company if in the judgment of the Trustee (i) a conflict of interest exists by reason of common representation or (ii) there are legal defenses available to the Trustee that are different from or are in addition to those available to the Company or if all parties commonly represented do not agree as to the action (or inaction) of counsel.

Section 9.8. Replacement of Trustee.

The Trustee or Collateral Trustee may resign by so notifying the Company; provided, however, that no such resignation shall be effective until a successor Trustee or Collateral Trustee has accepted its appointment pursuant to this Section 9.8. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may remove the Trustee or Collateral Trustee by so notifying the Trustee or Collateral Trustee and the Company. The Company shall remove the Trustee or Collateral Trustee if:

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 9.10;

(b) the Trustee or Collateral Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(d) the Trustee or Collateral Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee or Collateral Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee or Collateral Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint, by resolution of its Board of Directors, a successor Trustee or Collateral Trustee.

A successor Trustee or Collateral Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or Collateral Trustee and to the Company satisfactory in form and substance to the retiring Trustee or Collateral Trustee and the Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or Collateral Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee or Collateral Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee or Collateral Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee or Collateral Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee or Collateral Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee or Collateral Trustee to the successor Trustee or Collateral Trustee, upon payment of all the retiring Trustee’s or Collateral Trustee’s fees and expenses then due and payable and subject to the lien provided for in Section 9.7.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 9.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Section 9.9. Successor Trustee by Merger.

If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

Section 9.10. Eligibility; Disqualification.

The Trustee and any successor Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Sections 310(a)(1) and 310(b). The Trustee (or its parent holding company) shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the SEC the application referred to in the penultimate paragraph of TIA Section 310(b). If at any

time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.10, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

Section 9.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

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

The due and punctual payment of principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on the Notes when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether on an Interest Payment Date, at the Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, interest on the overdue principal of and interest (to the extent permitted by law), if any, on the Notes and the performance of all other obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder, shall be secured a first-priority Lien (collectively, the “Note Liens”) in the Collateral as provided in the Security Documents to which the Subsidiary Guarantors has entered into simultaneously with the execution of this Indenture and will be secured by all of the Collateral pledged pursuant thereto and pursuant to any Security Documents hereafter delivered as permitted by this Indenture. The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree that the Collateral Trustee shall hold the Collateral in trust for the benefit of all of the Holders and the Trustee, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the Security Documents, and the Collateral Trustee is hereby authorized to execute and deliver the Security Documents.

(b) The collateral shall initially be comprised of a perfected first-priority Lien on the Mortgaged Property and the Personal Property, subject to Permitted Liens (the “Collateral”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral shall not include any other property of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors.

(c) Each Holder, by its acceptance of any Notes and the related Note Guarantees, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and authorizes and directs the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee to perform their respective obligations and exercise their respective rights under the Security Documents in accordance therewith.

(d) The Trustee and each Holder, by accepting the Notes and the related Note Guarantees, acknowledges that, as more fully set forth in the Security Documents, the Collateral as now or hereafter constituted shall be held for the benefit of all the Holders and the Trustee, and that the Note Liens and the Security Documents in respect of the Trustee and the Holders are subject to and qualified and limited in all respects by the Security Documents and actions that may be taken thereunder.

Section 12.2. Maintenance of Collateral. The Subsidiary Guarantors shall use their best efforts to maintain the Collateral in good, safe and insurable operating order, condition and repair (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and do all other acts as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to maintain and preserve the value of the Collateral, except where the failure to maintain such value would not have a material adverse effect on the Collateral. The Subsidiary

Guarantors shall pay all real estate and other taxes (except for those being contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been made), and maintain in full force and effect all material permits and certain insurance coverages, except to the extent that the failure to maintain such permits and coverages follows the sale, in accordance with this Indenture, of the assets to which such permits or coverages relate or where such failure would not have a material adverse effect on the Collateral.

Section 12.3. Further Assurances; Insurance.

(a) The Subsidiary Guarantors shall, at their sole expense, do all acts reasonably requested by the Collateral Trustee which may be reasonably necessary to confirm that the Collateral Trustee holds, for the benefit of the Holders and the Trustee, duly created, enforceable and perfected Note Liens and security interests in the Collateral as contemplated by this Indenture and the Security Documents.

(b) The Subsidiary Guarantors shall, at their sole expense, execute, acknowledge and deliver such documents and instruments and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents), (i) that may be required under any applicable law or regulation to cause the Collateral Requirement to be and remain satisfied at all times or (ii) that the Trustee or Collateral Trustee may reasonably request for purposes of implementing or effectuating the provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents, or of more fully perfecting or renewing the rights of the Collateral Trustee in the Collateral or ensuring the priority of the Note Liens, all at the expense of the Subsidiary Guarantors.

(1) keep the Collateral adequately insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers;

(2) maintain such other insurance, to such extent and against such risks (and with such deductibles, retentions and exclusions), including fire and other risks insured against by extended coverage and coverage for acts of terrorism, as is customary with companies in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations, including public liability insurance against claims for personal injury or death or property damage occurring upon, in, about or in connection with the use of any Collateral;

(3) maintain such other insurance as may be required by law; and

(4) maintain such other insurance as may be required by the Security Documents.

Each such policy of insurance shall (a) name the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of Holders, as an additional insured thereunder, (b) in the case of each casualty insurance policy, contain a loss payable clause or endorsement, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Trustee, that names the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of Holders, as the loss payee thereunder and (c) provide for at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Trustee of any cancellation of such policy.

(d) The Company will otherwise comply with the provisions of TIA §314(b).

(e) To the extent applicable, the Company will cause TIA §313(b), relating to reports, and TIA §314(d), relating to the release of property and the substitution therefore of any property to be pledged as Collateral for the Notes and the Note Guarantees thereof, to be complied with. Any certificate or opinion required by TIA §314(d) may be made by an Officer of the Company except in cases where TIA §314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person, which Person will be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert selected or reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.03(e), the Company will not be required to comply with all or any portion of TIA §314(d) if it determines, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms of TIA §314(d) and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA §314(d) is inapplicable to one or a series of released Collateral.

Section 12.4. Impairment of Security Interest. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantors shall take or omit to take any action which would materially adversely affect or impair the Note Liens in favor of the Collateral Trustee and the Holders with respect to the Collateral. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantors shall grant to any Person, or permit any Person to retain (other than the Collateral Trustee), any interest whatsoever in the Collateral, other than the Permitted Liens. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantors shall enter into any agreement that requires the proceeds received from any sale of Collateral to be applied to repay, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire any Indebtedness of any Person, other than as permitted by this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents. The Company shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to, at its sole cost and expense, execute and deliver all such agreements and instruments as necessary or as the Collateral Trustee or Trustee shall reasonably request to more fully or accurately describe the assets and property intended to be Collateral or the obligations intended to be secured by the Security Documents.

Section 12.5. Release of Note Liens.

(a) The Note Liens will be released with respect to the Notes and/or a Note Guarantee, as applicable:

(v) in part, as to any asset constituting Collateral other than the Mortgaged Property with a fair market value of less than $1,000,000 that is sold or otherwise disposed in a transaction or series of transactions that are part of a common plan by the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors to any Person, other than the Company or any Subsidiary (but excluding any transaction subject to Article VII where the recipient is required to become the obligor of the Notes or the Note Guarantees, as applicable), to the extent of the interest sold or disposed of;

(vi) in whole with respect to a Subsidiary Guarantor, upon a sale/leaseback, other financing, sale or other disposition of substantially all of the Mortgaged Property or other Collateral of such Subsidiary Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Subsidiary or other Affiliate of the Company (but excluding any transaction subject to Article VII where the recipient is required to become the obligor of the Notes or the Note Guarantees, as applicable); provided, however, that (1) in the case of the Mortgaged Property, (a) the total proceeds received by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor in connection with such transaction are at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) of such Collateral and (b) Net Available Cash of at least $50,000,000 in immediately available funds is received by the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor at closing of such sale/leaseback, other financing, sale or other disposition; and (2) in the case of the Mortgaged Property and any other Collateral not subject to Section 12.5(a)(v) above, all Net Available Cash received is used within 60 days of receipt to make a partial or full redemption of the Notes pursuant to Article IV of this Indenture; and

(vii) automatically upon the release thereof by the consent of at least 66-2/3% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding;

provided, that, in the case of any release in whole pursuant to clause (a)(iii) above, all amounts owing to the Trustee under this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents have been paid.

(b) To the extent required pursuant to Section 314(d) of the TIA, the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor will furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee, prior to each proposed release of Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents and this Indenture:

(ii) all documents required by TIA §314(d), this Indenture and the Security Documents.

Upon compliance by the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, with the conditions precedent set forth above, and if required by this Indenture upon delivery by the

Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors to the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such conditions have been complied with, the Trustee or the Collateral Trustee shall promptly cause to be released and reconveyed to the Company, or the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, the released Collateral, and the Trustee and Collateral Trustee shall promptly execute and deliver to the Company or the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, such instruments of release or reconveyance and other documents as the Company or the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor may request.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to comply with all or any portion of TIA §314(d) if they determine, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms of that section and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the Commission and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA §314(d) is inapplicable to the released Collateral.

(d) The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors may, among other things, without any release or consent by the Trustee, conduct ordinary course activities with respect to Collateral as provided for in the Collateral Agreement. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee, within 30 calendar days following the end of each six-month period beginning on June 1 and December 1 of any year, an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that all releases and withdrawals during the preceding six-month period (or since the Issue Date, in the case of the first such certificate) pursuant to this Section 12.5(d) in which no release or consent of the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee was obtained in the ordinary course of the Company’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ business were not prohibited by this Indenture.

Section 12.6. Acknowledgment by Holders. By acceptance of the benefits hereof, each Holder (i) irrevocably appoints the Collateral Trustee and authorizes the Collateral Trustee to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Trustee by the terms of the Security Documents and this Indenture, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (ii) acknowledges and consents to the provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents, and that it shall not be entitled to the benefits of the Security Documents or this Indenture except pursuant to the terms and conditions thereof.

Section 12.7. Trust Indenture Act. For purposes of this Article XII only, “TIA” or “Trust Indenture Act” shall mean the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the Issue Date to the extent permitted by law.
