(iii) the net income of any Restricted Subsidiary to the extent that the declaration of dividends or similar distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary of that income is not at the time permitted, directly or indirectly, without prior approval (that has not been obtained), pursuant to the terms of its charter or any agreement, instrument and governmental regulation applicable to such Restricted Subsidiary or its stockholders;

(iv) any gain or loss realized upon the sale or other disposition of (x) any assets (including pursuant to Sale and Leaseback Transactions) which are not sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business or (y) any Capital Stock of any Person; and

(v) the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principles;

The Exchange Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication relating thereto shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules, agreements to which Parent or Terra Capital is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to Parent or Terra Capital, as the case may be). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. If required, the Notes may bear the appropriate legend regarding any original issue discount for federal income tax purposes. Each Note shall have an executed Guarantee from each of the Guarantors.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes, annexed hereto as Exhibits A and B, shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, Terra Capital, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby.

(b) Global Notes. The Notes offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A and Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of one or more permanent Global Notes (“Global Notes”) in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, in substantially the form of Exhibit A, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with the Trustee, at the Trustee’s office in New York City, as custodian for the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository, duly executed by Terra Capital (and having an executed Guarantee endorsed thereon) and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided and shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.13. The aggregate principal amount of the Global Notes may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depository or its nominee in the limited circumstances hereinafter provided.

Securities issued in exchange for interests in Global Notes pursuant to Section 2.6 may be issued in the form of permanent certificated Securities in registered form in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A (the “Physical Notes”).

SECTION 2.2. Execution and Authentication. An Officer of Terra Capital and each Guarantor shall sign the Notes and the Guarantees, respectively, by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless. A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery (i) Initial Notes for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of $330,000,000, (ii) Exchange Notes from time to time for issue only in exchange for a like principal amount of Initial Notes, in each case, upon a written order of Terra Capital signed

-32-

by an Officer of Terra Capital and (iii) subject to Section 4.9, Additional Notes. Such order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed $330,000,000 except as provided in Section 2.7. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to Terra Capital to authenticate the Notes, upon the consent of Terra Capital to such appointment. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

SECTION 2.3. Registrar and Paying Agent. Terra Capital shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar, acting on behalf of and as agent for Terra Capital, shall keep a register (the “Notes Register”) of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. Terra Capital may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents.

The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. Terra Capital shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. Terra Capital shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If Terra Capital fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.7. Terra Capital or a Subsidiary thereof may act as Paying Agent, Registrar, co-Registrar or transfer agent.

Terra Capital initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Notes, until such time as the Trustee has resigned or a successor has been appointed. Any of the Registrar, the Paying Agent or any other agent may resign upon 30 days’ notice to Terra Capital.

SECTION 2.4. Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust. On or prior to each due date of the principal and interest on any Note, Terra Capital shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due. Terra Capital shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee of any default by Terra Capital in making any such payment. If Terra Capital or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. Terra Capital at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

SECTION 2.5. Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, Terra Capital shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business

-33-

Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders; provided, however, that as long as the Trustee is the Registrar, no such list need be furnished.

SECTION 2.6. Transfer and Exchange. The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer. When a Note is presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Registrar shall record in the Notes Register the transfer as requested if the requirements of Section 8-401(1) of the UCC are met, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee or transferee and the old Note will be returned to Terra Capital. When Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested, in the same manner, if the same requirements are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, Terra Capital shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Notes and each of the Guarantors shall execute a Guarantee thereon at the Registrar’s or co-registrar’s request. Terra Capital may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section. Terra Capital shall not be required to make and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.

Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, Terra Capital, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar may deem and treat the person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of Terra Capital, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture will evidence the same debt and will be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

With respect to Global Notes:

(1) Each Global Note authenticated under this Indenture shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depository designated for such Global Note or a nominee thereof, (ii) be deposited with such Depository or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, (iii) bear legends as set forth in Section 2.13 and (iv) constitute a single Note for all purposes of this Indenture.

(2) Transfers of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers in whole but not in part to the Depository, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Note may be transferred or exchanged for Physical Notes in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the provisions of Section 2.14. In addition,

-34-

a Global Note is exchangeable for certificated Notes if (i) the Depository notifies Terra Capital that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depository for such Global Note or if at any time the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (ii) Terra Capital executes and delivers to the Trustee a notice that such Global Note shall be so transferable, registrable, and exchangeable, and such transfers shall be registrable or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default. Any Global Note that is exchangeable for certificated Notes pursuant to the preceding sentence will be transferred to, and registered and exchanged for, certificated Notes in authorized denominations, without legends applicable to a Global Note, and registered in such names as the Depository holding such Global Note may direct. Subject to the foregoing, a Global Note is not exchangeable, except for a Global Note of like denomination to be registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee. In the event that a Global Note becomes exchangeable for certificated Notes, (i) certificated Notes will be issued only in fully registered form in denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, (ii) payment of principal, any repurchase price, and interest on the certificated Notes will be payable, and the transfer of the certificated Notes will be registrable, at the office or agency of Terra Capital maintained for such purposes, and (iii) no service charge will be made for any registration or transfer or exchange of the certificated Notes, although Terra Capital may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

(3) Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note or any portion thereof shall have an aggregate principal amount equal to that of such Global Note or portion thereof to be so exchanged, shall be registered in such names and be in such authorized denominations as the Depository shall designate and shall bear the applicable legends provided for herein. Any Global Note to be exchanged in whole shall be surrendered by the Depository to the Trustee. With respect to any Global Note to be exchanged in part, either such Global Note shall be so surrendered for exchange or, if the Trustee is acting as custodian for the Depository or its nominee with respect to such Global Note, the principal amount thereof shall be reduced, by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Trustee. Upon any such surrender or adjustment, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Note issuable on such exchange to or upon the order of the Depository or an authorized representative thereof.

(4) Every Note authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section 2.6, Section 2.7, 2.9, 2.14 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, unless such Note is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository for such Global Note or a nominee thereof. Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Participants”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository or by the Trustee as the custodian of the Depository or under such Global Note, and the Depository may be treated by Terra Capital, the Trustee and any agent of Terra Capital or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent Terra Capital, the Trustee or any agent of Terra Capital or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Participants, the operation of customary practices of

-35-

such Depository governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note.

SECTION 2.7. Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, Terra Capital shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note and the Guarantors shall execute a Guarantee thereon if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met and the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee and Terra Capital. Such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of Terra Capital, the Guarantors and the Trustee to protect Terra Capital, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. Terra Capital and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note issued pursuant to the terms of this Section shall constitute an additional obligation of Terra Capital and the Guarantors under this Indenture.

The provisions of this Section 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. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.6, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because Terra Capital or an Affiliate of Terra Capital holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and Terra Capital receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date or, pursuant to Section 8.1(a), within 91 days prior thereto, money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that redemption or maturity date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, then on and after such date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and on and after such redemption or maturity date interest on them ceases to accrue.

SECTION 2.9. Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, Terra Capital may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that Terra Capital considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, Terra Capital shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes and deliver them in exchange for temporary Notes.

SECTION 2.10. Cancellation. Terra Capital at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and

-36-

deliver such canceled Securities to Terra Capital. The Trustee shall from time to time provide Terra Capital a list of all Securities that have been canceled as requested by Terra Capital. Terra Capital may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 2.11. Defaulted Interest. If Terra Capital defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, Terra Capital shall pay defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner in accordance with Section 4.1. Terra Capital may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. Terra Capital shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.

SECTION 2.12. CUSIP Numbers. Terra Capital in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of 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 redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. Terra Capital will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

SECTION 2.13. Restrictive Legends. Each Global Note and Physical Note that constitutes a Restricted Security or is sold in compliance with Regulation S shall bear the following legend (the “Private Placement Legend”) on the face thereof until after the second anniversary of the later of the Issue Date and the last date on which Terra Capital or any Affiliate of Terra Capital was the owner of such Note (or any predecessor note) (or such shorter period of time as permitted by Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereunder), or such longer period of time as may be required under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws in the opinion of counsel for Terra Capital, unless otherwise agreed by Terra Capital and the Holder thereof:

“This security (or its predecessor) has not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and, accordingly, may not be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons, except as set forth in the next sentence. By its acquisition hereof or of a beneficial interest herein, the Holder:

(1) Represents that (a) it is a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in rule 144A under the Securities Act) (a “QIB”), (b) it is acquiring this security in an offshore transaction in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act, or (c) it is an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act) (an “IAI”);

(2) Agrees that it will not resell or otherwise transfer this security except (a) to the company or any of its subsidiaries, (b) to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a QIB purchasing for its own account or for the account of a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (c) in an offshore transaction meeting the

-37-

requirements of Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (d) in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (e) to an IAI that, prior to such transfer, furnishes the Trustee a signed letter containing certain representations and agreements relating to the transfer of this security (the form of which can be obtained from the Trustee) and, if such transfer is in respect of an aggregate principal amount of securities less than $250,000, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the company, if the company so requests, that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, (f) in accordance with another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel acceptable to the company), or (g) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and, in each case, in accordance with the applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction; and

(3) agrees that it will deliver to each person to whom this security or an interest herein is transferred a notice substantially to the effect of this legend.

As used herein, the terms “offshore transaction” and “United States” have the meanings given to them by Rule 902 of Regulation S under the Securities Act. The indenture governing this security contains a provision requiring the trustee to refuse to register any transfer of this security in violation of the foregoing.”

Each Global Note shall also bear the following legend on the face thereof:

Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for securities in definitive form, this security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depository to a nominee of the depository, or by any such nominee of the depository, or by the depository or nominee of such successor depository or any such nominee to a successor depository or a nominee of such successor depository. Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), to an issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment hereon is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.

Transfers of this global note shall be limited to transfers in whole, but not in part, to nominees of Cede & Co. or to a successor thereof or such successor’s nominee and transfers of portions of this global note shall be limited to transfers made in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Section 2.14 of the Indenture referred to herein.

SECTION 2.14. Special Transfer Provisions.

(a) Transfers to Non-QIB Institutional Accredited Investors and Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of

-38-

a Security constituting a Restricted Security to any Institutional Accredited Investor which is not a QIB or to any Non-U.S. Person:

(i) the Registrar shall register the transfer of any Note constituting a Restricted Security whether or not such Note bears the Private Placement Legend, if (x) the requested transfer is after the second anniversary of the Issue Date (provided, however, that neither Terra Capital nor any Affiliate of Terra Capital has held any beneficial interest in such Note, or portion thereof, at any time on or prior to the second anniversary of the Issue Date) or (y) (1) in the case of a transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor which is not a QIB (excluding Non-U.S. Persons), the proposed transferee has delivered to the Registrar a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto and any legal opinions and certifications required thereby or (2) in the case of a transfer to a Non-U.S. Person, the proposed transferor has delivered to the Registrar a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto; and

(ii) if the proposed transferor is a Participant holding a beneficial interest in the Global Note, upon receipt by the Registrar of (x) the certificate, if any, required by paragraph (i) above and (y) written instructions given in accordance with the Depository’s and the Registrar’s procedures,

whereupon (a) the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and (if the transfer does not involve a transfer of outstanding Physical Notes) a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Global Note to be transferred, and (b) Terra Capital shall execute, the Guarantors shall execute the Guarantees on, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and amount.

(b) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Security constituting a Restricted Security to a QIB (excluding transfers to Non-U.S. Persons):

(i) the Registrar shall register the Transfer if such Transfer is being made by a proposed transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of Note stating, or has otherwise advised Terra Capital and the Registrar in writing, that the sale has been made in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the certification provided for on the form of Note stating, or has otherwise advised Terra Capital and the Registrar in writing, that it is purchasing the Note for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding Terra Capital as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; and

(ii) if the proposed transferee is a Participant, and the Notes to be transferred consist of Physical Notes which after transfer are to be evidenced by an interest in a Global Note, upon receipt by the Registrar of written instructions given in accordance with the Depository’s and the Registrar’s procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and

-39-

an increase in the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Notes to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Notes so transferred.

(c) Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Securities not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend unless (i) the requested transfer is after the second anniversary of the Issue Date (provided, however, that neither Terra Capital nor any Affiliate of Terra Capital has held any beneficial interest in such Note, or portion thereof, at any time prior to or on the second anniversary of the Issue Date), or (ii) there is delivered to the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to Terra Capital and the Trustee to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.

(d) General. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture.

The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.6 or this Section 2.14. Terra Capital shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time during the Registrar’s normal business hours upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

(e) Transfers of Notes Held by Affiliates. Any certificate (i) evidencing a Note that has been transferred to an Affiliate of Terra Capital within two years after the Issue Date, as evidenced by a notation on the Assignment Form for such transfer or in the representation letter delivered in respect thereof or (ii) evidencing a Note that has been acquired from an Affiliate (other than by an Affiliate) in a transaction or a chain of transactions not involving any public offering, shall, until two years after the last date on which either Terra Capital or any Affiliate of Terra Capital was an owner of such Note, in each case, bear a legend in substantially the form set forth in Section 2.13, unless otherwise agreed by Terra Capital (with written notice thereof to the Trustee).

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION

SECTION 3.1. Notices to Trustee. If Terra Capital elects to redeem Notes pursuant to paragraph 5 thereof, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the redemption date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the paragraph of the Notes pursuant to which the redemption will occur. Terra Capital shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section at least 45 days before the redemption date unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate from Terra Capital to the effect that such redemption will comply with the provisions herein.

-40-

SECTION 3.2. Selection of Notes To Be Redeemed. If fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed on a pro rata basis or by lot or by such other method that complies with applicable legal and securities exchange requirements, if any, and that the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate and in accordance with methods generally used at the time of selection by fiduciaries in similar circumstances. The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. Notes and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify Terra Capital promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes to be redeemed. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption relating to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. In the event Terra Capital is required to make an offer to purchase Notes pursuant to Section 4.8, 4.13 or 4.15 and the amount available for such offer is not evenly divisible by $1,000, the Trustee shall promptly refund to Terra Capital any remaining funds, which in no event will exceed $2,000.

SECTION 3.3. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Notes, Terra Capital shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to the registered address appearing in the Notes Register of each Holder of Notes to be redeemed. The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

(1) the redemption date;

(2) the redemption price;

(3) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(4) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(5) if fewer than all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification and principal amounts of the particular Notes to be redeemed;

(6) that, unless Terra Capital defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(7) the paragraph of the Notes pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;

(8) the CUSIP number, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed; and

(9) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

-41-

At Terra Capital’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in Terra Capital’s name and at Terra Capital’s sole expense. In such event, Terra Capital shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section.

SECTION 3.4. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest to the redemption date. Such notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

SECTION 3.5. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption date, Terra Capital shall deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent (or, if Parent or a Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest (if any) on all Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption which have been delivered by Terra Capital to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 3.6. Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part (with, if Terra Capital or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to Terra Capital and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), Terra Capital shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or Notes of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered, except that if a Global Note is so surrendered, Terra Capital shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Depository for such Global Note, without service charge, a new Global Note in denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Note so surrendered.

ARTICLE 4

COVENANTS

SECTION 4.1. Payment of Notes. Terra Capital shall promptly pay the principal of and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes and in this Indenture. Principal and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due. Terra Capital shall pay interest on overdue principal at 1% per annum in excess of the rate per annum set forth in the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on a basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

SECTION 4.2. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article 5 and Section 4.13, Parent shall do or caused to be done, at its own cost and expense, all things necessary to, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate or partnership existence and rights (charter and statutory), licenses and/or franchises of Parent and each Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that neither Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall be required to preserve any such rights, licenses or franchises if the Board of Directors shall reasonably determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of Terra Capital and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

SECTION 4.3. Maintenance of Office or Agency. Terra Capital shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency (which may be an office or agency of the Trustee, Registrar or co-Registrar), where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment and where notices and demands to or upon Terra Capital in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. Terra Capital will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time Terra Capital 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’s office located in New York City.

Terra Capital 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 Terra Capital of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, for such purposes. Terra Capital will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

Terra Capital hereby initially designates the Trustee’s office or agency in New York City as an agency of Terra Capital in accordance with Section 2.3.

SECTION 4.4. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. Parent shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon its or its Subsidiaries’ income, profits or property; provided, however, that none of Parent or its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate negotiations or proceedings and for which disputed amounts adequate reserves have been made in accordance with GAAP.

SECTION 4.5. Additional Guarantees.

(a) If Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary Transfers, acquires or creates another Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Foreign Subsidiary or any Immaterial Subsidiary) after the date of this Indenture, then that newly acquired or created Restricted Subsidiary shall, within ten Business Days of the date on which it was acquired or created, execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary

-43-

shall fully and unconditionally guarantee all of Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture on the terms set forth in this Indenture. Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture until released in accordance with Section 10.6.

(b) If TNCLP becomes a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, TNCLP and TNLP shall, execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to which TNCLP and TNLP shall fully and unconditionally guarantee all of Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture on the terms set forth in Article 10. Thereafter, each of TNCLP and TNLP shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture until released in accordance with Section 10.6.

SECTION 4.6. SEC Reports. Whether or not Terra Capital and the Guarantors are then subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, Terra Capital and the Guarantors shall electronically file with the Commission, so long as the Notes are outstanding, the annual reports, quarterly reports and other periodic reports that Terra Capital and the Guarantors would be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) if Terra Capital and the Guarantors were so subject, and such documents shall be filed with the Commission on or prior to the respective dates (the “Required Filing Dates”) by which Issuer and the Guarantors would be required so to file such documents if Terra Capital and the Guarantors were so subject, unless, in any case, if such filings are not then permitted by the Commission.

If such filings with Commission are not then permitted by the Commission, or such filings are not generally available on the Internet free of charge, Issuer and the Guarantors will, within 15 days of each Required Filing Date, transmit by mail to noteholders, as their names and addresses appear in the Note register, without cost to such noteholders, and file with the Trustee copies of the annual reports, quarterly reports and other periodic reports that Issuer and the Guarantors would be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if Issuer and the Guarantors were subject to such Section 13(a) or 15(d), and promptly upon written request, supply copies of such documents to any prospective holder or beneficial owner at Issuer’s cost.

So long as the rules and regulations of the Commission would allow (including pursuant to any applicable exemptive relief) the Issuer and the Guarantors to file periodic reports or information (if they were required by the Exchange Act to file such reports or information) on a consolidated or combined basis, the Issuer and the Guarantors will be deemed to have satisfied their requirements in the above paragraphs if Parent files the reports and other information of the types otherwise so required within the applicable time periods. Parent or the Issuer, as applicable, also will comply with other provisions of TIA § 314(a).

SECTION 4.7. Compliance Certificate. Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of Issuer an Officers’ Certificate, one of the signers of which shall be the principal executive, financial or accounting officer of Issuer, stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of Issuer they would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default that occurred during such period. If they do, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. Issuer and the Guarantors also shall comply with TIA Section 314(a)(4).

SECTION 4.8. Change of Control.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder shall have the right to require Terra Capital to purchase all or a portion (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the date fixed for redemption), in accordance with the terms contemplated in Section 4.8(b).

(b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, Terra Capital shall mail a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, stating

(1) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require Terra Capital to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the date fixed for purchase);

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

(3) the instructions as determined by Terra Capital, consistent with this Section 4.8, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased.

(c) On the purchase date, all Notes purchased by Terra Capital under this Section 4.8 shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, and Terra Capital shall pay the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Holders entitled thereto.

(d) Terra Capital shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 4.8. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.8, Terra Capital shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the covenant described hereunder by virtue thereof.

SECTION 4.9. Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness.

(a) Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, incur, directly or indirectly, any Indebtedness; provided that Issuer or any Guarantor may incur Indebtedness if, immediately after giving effect to such incurrence, the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is at least 2.0 to 1.0 (this proviso, the “Coverage Ratio Exception”).

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.9, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (1) through (19) above or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the Coverage Ratio Exception, Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness and may divide and classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described (except that Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facility on the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred under clause (3) above) and may later reclassify such item into any one or more of the categories of Indebtedness described in clauses (3) through (18) above (provided that at the time of reclassification it meets the criteria in such category or categories). The maximum amount of Indebtedness that Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.9 will not be deemed to be exceeded solely as the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies. In determining the amount of Indebtedness outstanding under one of the clauses above, the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness of any Person shall be counted only once and any obligation of such Person or any other Person arising under any guarantee, Lien, letter of credit or similar instrument supporting such Indebtedness shall be disregarded so long as it is permitted to be incurred by the Person or Persons incurring such obligation.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not, and shall not permit Issuer or any other Guarantor to, incur any Indebtedness that purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement or instrument governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to any other Indebtedness of Parent, Issuer or of such other Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is also by its terms made subordinated to the Notes or the Guarantee of such Guarantor, as applicable, to at least the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to such other Indebtedness of Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be.

SECTION 4.10. Limitation on Restricted Payments.

(a) Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, declare or make a Restricted Payment if

(1) a Default shall have occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom;

(2) Issuer could not incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Coverage Ratio Exception; or

(3) the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment together with all other Restricted Payments (the amount of any Restricted Payments made in assets other than cash to be valued at its Fair Market Value) declared or made since the Issue Date (other than any Restricted Payment described in clause (2), (3), (4), (5), (6) or (8) of Section 4.10(b)) would exceed the sum (the “Basket”) of:

(i) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income accrued during the period (treated as one accounting period) from December 31, 2006 to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter prior to the date of such Restricted Payment for which internal financial statements are available (or, in case such Consolidated Net Income shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit); plus

(ii) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by Parent from the issuance and sale (other than to a Subsidiary of Parent) of Qualified Stock subsequent to the Issue Date; plus

(iii) the amount by which Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock incurred or issued subsequent to the Issue Date is reduced on Parent’s consolidated balance sheet upon the conversion or exchange (other than by a Subsidiary of Parent) into Qualified Stock (less the amount of any cash, or the Fair Market Value of any other asset, distributed by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary upon such conversion or exchange); provided that such amount shall not exceed the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary from the issuance and sale (other than to a Subsidiary of Parent) of such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock; plus

(iv) to the extent not included in the calculation of the Consolidated Net Income referred to in (i), an amount equal to, without duplication;

(x) 100% of the aggregate net proceeds (including the Fair Market Value of assets other than cash) received by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary upon the sale or other disposition of any Investment (other than a Permitted Investment) made by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary since the Issue Date; plus

(y) the net reduction in Investments (other than Permitted Investments) in any Person resulting from dividends, repayments of loans or advances or other Transfers of assets subsequent to the Issue Date, in each case to Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary from such Person; plus

(z) to the extent that the Basket was reduced as the result of the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the portion (proportionate to Parent’s equity interest in such Subsidiary) of the Fair Market Value of the net

-49-

assets of such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is redesignated, or liquidated or merged into, a Restricted Subsidiary;

provided that the foregoing shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the amount of all Investments which previously reduced the Basket.

(b) The provisions of Section 4.10(a) shall not prohibit the following:

(1) dividends paid within 90 days after the date of declaration thereof if at such date of declaration such dividend would have been permitted under this Indenture;

(2) any repurchase, redemption, retirement or other acquisition of Capital Stock or Subordinated Obligations made in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent issuance and sale (other than to a Subsidiary of Parent) of, Qualified Stock or, with respect to any such Subordinated Obligations, in exchange for or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent incurrence and sale (other than to a Subsidiary of Parent) of Refinancing Indebtedness thereof; provided that (x) no such exchange or issuance and sale shall increase the Basket and (y) no Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof;

(3) the purchase, redemption, acquisition, cancellation or other retirement for a nominal value per right of any rights granted to all the holders of Common Stock of Parent pursuant to any shareholders’ rights plan adopted for the purpose of protecting shareholders from unfair takeover tactics; provided that any such purchase, redemption, acquisition, cancellation or other retirement of such rights shall not be for the purpose of evading the limitations of this Section (all as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors);

(4) payments by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of Indebtedness of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary owed to Parent or another Restricted Subsidiary;

(5) repurchases of Capital Stock deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock options or warrants if such Capital Stock represents a portion of the exercise price thereof and repurchases of Capital Stock deemed to occur upon the withholding of a portion of the Capital Stock granted or awarded to an employee to pay for the taxes payable by such employee upon such grant or award;

(6) if no Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof, the declaration and payment of dividends to holders of any class or series of Designated Preferred Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) issued after the Issue Date; provided that, at the time of the issuance of such Designated Preferred Stock and after giving pro forma effect thereto, Issuer could incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Coverage Ratio Exception;

(7) repurchases of the Capital Stock of the Parent pursuant to a stock buyback program of the Parent so long as before and after giving effect to such repurchases the Consolidated Leverage Ratio is less than 3.0 to 1.0; provided that any such repurchases of Capital

Stock shall not be exceed $25.0 million in any twelve month period and shall not exceed $75.0 million in the aggregate; or

(8) Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount since the Issue Date not to exceed the greater of $45.0 million and 3% of Total Assets at the time made.

SECTION 4.11. Limitation on Liens. Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, incur any Lien of any kind on any asset of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary (including Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, or any income or profits therefrom or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, except Permitted Liens, unless the Notes and the Guarantees are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien; provided that if the obligations so secured are subordinated by their terms to the Notes or a Guarantee, the Lien securing such obligations will also be so subordinated by its terms to the Notes and the Guarantees at least to the same extent.

SECTION 4.12. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates. (a) Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or series of related transactions, transfer any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any affiliate of Parent (an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless the terms thereof are no less favorable to Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained at the time of such transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person that is not such an affiliate; provided that the Board of Directors must approve each Affiliate Transaction that involves aggregate payments or other assets or services with a Fair Market Value in excess of $10.0 million. This approval must be evidenced by a board resolution that states that the Board of Directors has determined that the transaction complies with the foregoing provisions; provided, further that if Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary enters into an Affiliate Transaction that involves aggregate payments or other assets or services with a Fair Market Value in excess of $20.0 million, then prior to the consummation of such Affiliate Transaction, Parent must obtain a favorable opinion from an Independent Financial Advisor that it has determined such Affiliate Transaction to be fair, from a financial point of view, to the Holders, and deliver that opinion to the Trustee.

(b) The provisions of clause (a) above will not prohibit the following:

(1) transactions exclusively between or among (a) Parent and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or (b) Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, in each case, that no affiliate of Parent (other than another Restricted Subsidiary) owns Capital Stock in any such Restricted Subsidiary;

(2) customary director, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits (including retirement, health, stock option and other benefit plans) and indemnification arrangements, in each case approved by the Board of Directors;

(3) the entering into of a tax sharing agreement, or payments pursuant thereto, between Parent and/or one or more Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any other Person with which Parent or such Subsidiaries are required or permitted to file a consolidated tax return or

-51-

with which Parent or such Subsidiaries are part of a consolidated group for tax purposes, on the other hand, which payments by Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not in excess of the tax liabilities that would have been payable by them on a stand-alone basis;

(4) Restricted Payments which are made in accordance with Section 4.10 and Investments constituting Permitted Investments;

(5) any transaction with an affiliate where the only consideration paid by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary is Qualified Stock;

(6) the provision of management, financial and operational services by Parent and its Subsidiaries to affiliates of Parent in which Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary has an Investment and the payment of compensation for such services; provided that the Board of Directors has determined that the provision of such services is in the best interests of Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries;

(7) transactions between Parent or any Subsidiary and any Securitization Entity in connection with a Qualified Securitization Transaction, in each case provided that such transactions are not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture;

(8) transactions with a Person that is an affiliate solely because Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary owns Capital Stock in such Person; provided that no affiliate of Parent (other than a Restricted Subsidiary) owns Capital Stock in such Person; or

(9) purchases and sales of raw materials or inventory in the ordinary course of business on market terms.

SECTION 4.13. Limitation on Asset Sales.

(a) Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless:

(i) Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets included in such Asset Sale;

(ii) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the total consideration received in such Asset Sale consists of cash, Temporary Cash Investments or assets referred to in clause (c) below, in each case, valued at the Fair Market Value thereof, or a combination of the foregoing; and

(iii) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this provision that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 2% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-

-52-

cash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

(b) For purposes of Section 4.13(a)(ii) above, the following shall be deemed to be cash:

(x) the amount (without duplication) of any Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Obligations) of Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary that is expressly assumed by the Transferee in such Asset Sale and with respect to which Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is unconditionally released by the holder of such Indebtedness; and

(y) the amount of any obligations received from such Transferee that are within 60 days repaid, converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash or Temporary Cash Investments (to the extent of the cash or Temporary Cash Investments actually so received).

(c) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid, converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash or Temporary Cash Investments (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion, sale or other disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this Section 4.13.

(d) If Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary engages in an Asset Sale, Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary shall, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply an amount equal to all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom as follows:

(i) to repay borrowings owing under the Credit Facility in accordance with the Credit Facility;

(ii) to repay amounts owing under Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Obligations) that is secured by a Lien, which Lien is permitted by the Indenture, and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; and/or

(iii) to make (i) an investment in or expenditure for assets (including Capital Stock of any Person) that replace the assets that were the subject of the Asset Sale or in assets (including Capital Stock of any Person) that will be used in the Permitted Business and (ii) capital expenditures that will be used in the Permitted Business (or, in each case of (i) and (ii), enter into a binding commitment for any such investment or expenditure); provided that such binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Available Proceeds from the date of such commitment until and only until the earlier of (x) the date on which such investment or expenditure is consummated and (y) the 180th day following the expiration of the aforementioned 365-day period. If the investment or expenditure contemplated by such binding commitment is not consummated on or before the 180th day, such commitment shall be deemed not to have been a permitted application of Net Available Proceeds.

-53-

(e) The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.13(d) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”

(f) If at any time the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds not theretofore subject to a Net Proceeds Offer (as defined below) totals at least $20.0 million, Issuer shall, not later than 10 Business Days after the end of the period during which Issuer is required to apply such Excess Proceeds pursuant to Section 4.13(d) (or, if Issuer so elects, at any time within such period), make an offer (a “Net Proceeds Offer”) to purchase from the Holders of Notes (determined on a pro rata basis according to the accreted value or principal amount, as the case may be, of the Notes) that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds (rounded down to the nearest multiple of $1,000) on such date, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. Upon completion of a Net Proceeds Offer the amount of Excess Proceeds remaining after application pursuant to such Net Proceeds Offer (a “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) (including payment of the purchase price for Notes duly tendered) may be used by Issuer for general corporate purposes (to the extent not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture).

(g) Within 30 days after Issuer becomes obligated to make a Net Proceeds Offer, Issuer shall be obligated to deliver to the Trustee and send, by first-class mail to each Holder, at the address appearing in the Notes Register, a written notice stating that the Holder may elect to have his Securities purchased by Issuer either in whole or in part (subject to prorationing as hereinafter described in the event the Net Proceeds Offer is oversubscribed) in integral multiples of $1,000 of principal amount, at the applicable purchase price. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Net Proceeds Offer, shall include such disclosures as are required by law and shall specify (i) that the Net Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.13; (ii) the purchase price (including the amount of accrued interest, if any) for each Note and the purchase date not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice (the “Purchase Date”); (iii) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest in accordance with the terms thereof; (iv) that, unless Issuer defaults on making the payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Purchase Date; (v) that Holders electing to have Securities purchased pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer will be required to surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the Purchase Date and must complete any form letter of transmittal proposed by Issuer and acceptable to the Trustee and the Paying Agent; (vi) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than one Business Day prior to the Purchase Date, a telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Securities the Holder delivered for purchase, the Note certificate number (if any) and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Notes purchased; (vii) that if Notes in a principal amount in excess of the aggregate principal amount which Issuer has offered to purchase are tendered pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer, Issuer shall purchase Notes on a pro rata basis among the Notes tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by Issuer so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof shall be acquired); (viii) that Holders whose Notes are purchased only in part will be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered; and (ix) the instructions that Holders must follow in order to tender their Notes.

-54-

(h) Not later than the date upon which written notice of a Net Proceeds Offer is delivered to the Trustee as provided below, Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate as to (i) the amount of the Net Proceeds Offer (the “Net Proceeds Offer Amount”), (ii) the allocation of the Net Available Proceeds from the Asset Sales pursuant to which such Net Proceeds Offer is being made, and (iii) the compliance of such allocation with the provisions of Section 4.13(a). Upon the expiration of the period for which the Net Proceeds Offer remains open (the “Net Proceeds Offer Period”), Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes or portions thereof which have been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by Issuer. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Purchase Date, Issuer shall irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or with a paying agent (or, if Issuer is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust) an amount in cash sufficient to pay the Net Proceeds Offer Amount for all Notes properly tendered to and accepted by Issuer. The Trustee shall, on the Purchase Date, mail or deliver payment to each tendering Holder in the amount of the purchase price.

(i) Holders electing to have a Note purchased will be required to surrender the Note, together with all necessary endorsements and other appropriate materials duly completed, to Issuer at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the Purchase Date. Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election in whole or in part if the Trustee or Issuer receives not later than one Business Day prior to the Purchase Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note (which shall be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) which was delivered for purchase by the Holder, the aggregate principal amount of such Note (if any) that remains subject to the original notice of the Net Proceeds Offer and that has been or will be delivered for purchase by Issuer and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased. If at the expiration of the Net Proceeds Offer Period the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, Issuer shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by Issuer so that only securities in denominations of $2,000, or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased). Holders whose Notes are purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered.

(j) A Note shall be deemed to have been accepted for purchase at the time the Trustee, directly or through an agent, mails or delivers payment therefor to the surrendering Holder.

(k) In the event of the Transfer of substantially all (but not all) of the assets of Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries as an entirety to a Person in a transaction covered by and effected in accordance with Section 5.1 the Transferee shall be deemed to have sold for cash at Fair Market Value the assets of Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries not so Transferred for purposes of this Section 4.13, and shall comply with the provisions of this Section 4.13 with respect to such deemed sale as if it were an Asset Sale (with such Fair Market Value being deemed to be Net Available Proceeds for such purpose).

(l) Issuer shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with any purchase of Notes pursuant to this Indenture. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities

-55-

laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue thereof.

SECTION 4.14. Limitation on Dividend and Other Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(a) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary or pay any Indebtedness owed to Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary,

(b) make any loans or advances to, or guarantee any Indebtedness of, Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary, or

(1) any encumbrance or restriction (A) pursuant to an agreement in effect at or entered into on the Issue Date (including this Indenture and the Credit Facility), as such encumbrance or restriction is in effect on the Issue Date and (B) in the Credit Facility having the effect of restricting Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from taking any of the actions described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above with respect to, Parent or any intermediate holding company between Parent and Issuer;

(2) restrictions on the Transfer of assets subject to any Lien permitted under the Indenture imposed by the holder of such Lien;

(3) restrictions on the Transfer of assets imposed under any agreement to sell such assets permitted under this Indenture pending the closing of such sale;

(4) any instrument governing Acquired Indebtedness, which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the assets of any Person, other than the Person or the assets of the Person so acquired;

(5) customary provisions in partnership agreements, limited liability company organizational governance documents, joint venture agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business that restrict the Transfer of ownership interests in or the payment of dividends or distributions from such partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or similar Person;

(6) Purchase Money Indebtedness and Capital Lease Obligations incurred pursuant to clause (8) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” that impose restrictions of the nature described in clause (c) above on the assets acquired;

-56-

(7) any encumbrances or restrictions imposed by any amendments or Refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clause (1), (4) or (6) above; provided that such amendments or Refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, no more materially restrictive with respect to such encumbrances and restrictions than those prior to such amendment or Refinancing;

(8) covenants to maintain net worth, total assets or liquidity and similar financial responsibility covenants under contracts with customers or suppliers in the ordinary course of business;

(9) any such encumbrance or restriction consisting of customary provisions in leases governing leasehold interests to the extent such provisions restrict the transfer of the lease or the property leased thereunder; and

(10) any restriction imposed by applicable law.

SECTION 4.15. Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.

Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transaction; provided that Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a Sale and Leaseback Transaction if:

(1) Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary could have

(x) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction pursuant to Section 4.9, and

(y) incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.1l;

(2) the gross cash proceeds of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the asset that is the subject of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction; and

(3) the transfer of the asset in such Sale and Leaseback Transaction is permitted by, and Issuer applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with Section 4.13.

SECTION 4.16. [Reserved].

SECTION 4.17. Conduct of Business. Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than the Permitted Business.

SECTION 4.18. Maintenance of Properties; Insurance; Compliance with Law. (a) Subject to, and in compliance with, the provisions of Article Twelve, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, at all times cause all material assets used or useful in the conduct of their respective businesses to be maintained and kept in reasonably satisfactory condition, repair and working order (reasonable wear and tear excepted) and supplied with all necessary equipment, and shall cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements

-57-

thereto; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.18(a) shall prevent the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from discontinuing the operation and maintenance of any of such material assets if such discontinuance is, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

(b) The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, at all times maintain insurance with respect to such of its assets with responsible and reputable insurers, against such risks, casualties and contingencies and in such types and amounts, and with such deductibles, retentions and co-insurance provisions, as are consistent with sound business practice for businesses owning similar assets in the same general area in which the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary operates.

(c) The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, comply with all statutes, laws, ordinances or government rules and regulations to which they are subject the non-compliance with which would, individually or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

SECTION 4.19. Covenant Suspension

(a) If on any date following the Issue Date (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the covenants (the “Suspended Covenants”) described under:

(1) Section 4.9;

(2) Section 4.10

(3) Section 4.12;

(4) Section 4.13;

(5) Section 4.14;

(6) Section 4.15;

(7) Section 4.5;

(8) Section 5.1(d)(1);

(9) Section 4.17; and

(10) Section 4.8.

-58-

(b) In the event that Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the "Reversion Date") (a) one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating or (b) Parent or any of its affiliates enters into an agreement to effect a transaction that would result in a Change of Control and one or more of the Rating Agencies indicate that if consummated, such transaction (alone or together with any related recapitalization or refinancing transactions) would cause such Rating Agency to withdraw its Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the ratings assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants under the Indenture with respect to future events. The period beginning on the day of a Covenant Suspension Event and ending on a Reversion Date is called a “Suspension Period.”

(c) On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 4.9(b)(2). Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.10 will be made as though the covenant described under Section 4.10 had been in effect since the Issue Date and throughout the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of Section 4.10 (but will not reduce any amounts available to be made as Restricted Payments under the second paragraph of Section 4.10). However, no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred on the Reversion Date (or thereafter) under any Suspended Covenant solely as a result of any actions taken by Parent or its Restricted Subsidiaries, or events occurring, during the Suspension Period. For purposes of the Section 4.13, on the Reversion Date, the unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will be reset to zero.

(a) Parent will not, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, consolidate or merge with or into any Person, or transfer (or cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent to Transfer) all or substantially all of Parent’s assets (determined on a consolidated basis for Parent and its Subsidiaries) whether as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless

(1) either

(i) Parent is the surviving or continuing corporation; or

(ii) the Person (if other than Parent) formed by such consolidation or into which Parent is merged or the Transferee of such assets (the “Parent Surviving Entity”):

-59-

(x) is a corporation or limited liability company organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia; and

(y) expressly assumes, by supplemental indenture (in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee) executed and delivered to the Trustee, all of the Obligations of Parent under its Guarantee and the performance of every covenant under Parent’s Guarantee, this Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement on the part of Parent to be performed or observed; and

(2) each of the conditions specified in Section 5.1(d) is satisfied.

Upon any consolidation or merger in which Parent is not the continuing corporation, or any Transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Parent in accordance with the foregoing, the Parent Surviving Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, Parent under its Guarantee, this Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement with the same effect as if such Parent Surviving Entity had been named as such.

(b) Issuer shall not, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, consolidate or merge with or into any Person, or Transfer (or cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary of Issuer to Transfer) all or substantially all of Issuer’s assets (determined on a consolidated basis for Issuer and its Subsidiaries) whether as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless

-60-

Notes, this Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement on the part of Issuer to be performed or observed; and

(2) each of the conditions specified in Section 5.1(d) is satisfied.

For purposes of the foregoing, the Transfer in a single transaction or series of related transactions of all or substantially all of the assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of Issuer, the Capital Stock of which constitutes all or substantially all of the assets of Issuer (determined on a consolidated basis for Issuer and its Subsidiaries), shall be deemed to be the Transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Issuer

Upon any consolidation or merger in which Issuer is not the continuing corporation or any Transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Issuer in accordance with the foregoing, the Issuer Surviving Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement with the same effect as if such Issuer Surviving Entity had been named as such.

(c) No Guarantor (other than Parent) will, and Parent will not cause or permit any such Guarantor to, consolidate with or merge with or into any Person unless

(1) either

(i) such Guarantor shall be the surviving or continuing corporation; or

(ii) the Person (if other than such Guarantor) formed by such consolidation or into which such Guarantor is merged shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture (in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee) executed and delivered to the Trustee, all of the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee and the performance of every covenant under such Guarantor’s Guarantee, this Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement on the part of such Guarantor to be performed or observed; and

(2) each of the conditions specified in Section 5.1 (other than clause (1) thereof) is satisfied.

The requirements of this paragraph (c) shall not apply to (x) a consolidation or merger of any Guarantor with and into Issuer or any other Guarantor, so long as Issuer or a Guarantor survives such consolidation or merger, or (y) a Transfer of any Guarantor that complies with Section 4.13.

(d) The following additional conditions shall apply to each transaction described in paragraph (a), (b) or (c), except that clause (1) below shall not apply to a transaction described in paragraph (c):

(1) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption contemplated above (including giving effect to any Indebtedness incurred or anticipated to be incurred

SECTION 6.1. Events of Default. Any of the following shall constitute an Event of Default:

(i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on any Note;

(v) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness now exists or is created after the Issue Date, which

(x) is caused by a failure to pay such Indebtedness at Stated Maturity (after giving effect to any grace period related thereto) (a “Payment Default”); or

(y) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity;

and in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness as to which a Payment Default or acceleration shall have occurred, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $25.0 million or more;

(vi) one or more final and non-appealable judgments, orders or decrees for the payment of money of $25.0 million or more, individually or in the aggregate, shall be entered against Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective properties and which final and non-appealable judgments, orders or decrees are not covered by third party indemnities or insurance as to which coverage has not been disclaimed and are not paid, discharged, bonded or stayed within 60 days after their entry;

(vii) a court having jurisdiction in the premises enters (x) a decree or order for relief in respect of Issuer, Parent or any of its Significant Subsidiaries in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (y) a decree or order adjudging Issuer, Parent or any of its Significant Subsidiaries a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of Issuer, Parent or any of its Significant Subsidiaries under any applicable federal or state law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of Issuer, Parent or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period 60 consecutive days;

(viii) Terra Capital, Parent or any Significant Subsidiary:

(A) commences a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent; or

-63-

(B) consents to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of Issuer, Parent or any of its Significant Subsidiaries in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against Issuer, Parent or any of its Significant Subsidiaries; or

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, as amended, or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

Terra Capital shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any Event of Default under clause (v) of this Section 6.1 and any event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under clause (iv) or (vi) of this Section 6.1, its status and what action Terra Capital is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

SECTION 6.2. Acceleration. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default described in clause (vii) or (viii) of Section 6.1 with respect to Terra Capital, Issuer, Parent or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable

-64-

immediately. If an Event of Default described in clause (vii) or (viii) of Section 6.1 occurs with respect to Issuer, Parent or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, the principal of and interest on all the Notes will ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders of the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee 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 principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 6.3. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder 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, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative.

SECTION 6.4. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may waive any past or existing Default and its consequences except (i) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Note or (ii) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.2 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

SECTION 6.5. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes 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, subject to Section 7.1, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee shall have no duty to make such determination) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification from the Holders satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 6.6. Limitation on Suits. A Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

-65-

(3) such Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

(4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

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

SECTION 6.7. Rights of Holders To Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates therefor, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 6.8. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(i) or (ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against Terra Capital for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.7.

SECTION 6.9. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to Issuer, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7.

SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order, subject to applicable law:

FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.7;

SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, respectively; and

THIRD: to Terra Capital.

-66-

The Trustee may, upon prior written notice to Terra Capital, fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before such record date, Terra Capital shall mail to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

SECTION 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.7 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

ARTICLE 7

TRUSTEE

SECTION 7.1. Duties of Trustee.

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

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

(1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

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

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

-67-

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

(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Sections 6.2 and 6.5.

(d) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the TIA.

SECTION 7.2. Rights of Trustee. Subject to Section 7.1,

(a) The Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers’ Certificate, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

(b) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate.

(c) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, the Trustee may consult with counsel, and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(d) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(e) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and after the cure or waiver of all Events of Default, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, Officers’ Certificate, or other request, consent, order, approval, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, coupon, security or other paper or document unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding; provided that, if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigations, in the opinion of the Trustee, is not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expenses or liabilities as a condition to proceeding; the

-68-

reasonable expenses of every such examination shall be paid by Terra Capital or, if advanced by the Trustee, shall be repaid by Terra Capital on demand.

(f) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.

(g) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, or where information is required or necessary to be furnished by Terra Capital in order for the Trustee to act, the Trustee (unless otherwise evidence by herein specifically prescribed), shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance upon an Officers’ Certificate, or for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion, rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

(h) The Trustee shall not be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any covenants, conditions or agreements on the part of Terra Capital, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Indenture, but the Trustee may require of Terra Capital full information and advice as to the performance of the covenants, conditions and agreements contained herein.

(i) Except for (i) a default under Section 6.1(i) or 6.1(ii), (ii) the failure of Parent or Terra Capital to file any financial statements, documents or certificates specifically required to be filed with the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or (iii) any other event of which the Trustee has “actual knowledge” and which event constitutes a Default under this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any default or event unless specifically notified in writing by Terra Capital or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding; as used herein, the term “actual knowledge” means the actual fact of knowing, without a duty to make any investigation with regard thereto.

(j) The Trustee shall not be required to give any note, bond or surety in respect of the execution of the trusts and powers under this Indenture.

(k) The permissive rights of the Trustee to perform acts enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty.

(l) The Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with Terra Capital.

(m) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

-69-

(n) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.6 is for informational purposes only and the receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).

SECTION 7.3. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with Parent or its respective Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

SECTION 7.4. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for Terra Capital’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of Terra Capital in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

SECTION 7.5. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such Note, if any), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

SECTION 7.6. Reports by Trustee to Holders. As promptly as practicable after each January 1 beginning with the January 1 following the date of this Indenture, and in any event prior to July 15 in each year, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of May 15 that complies with TIA § 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b). Prior to delivery to the Holders, the Trustee shall deliver to Terra Capital a copy of any report it delivers to Holders pursuant to this Section 7.6.

SECTION 7.7. Compensation and Indemnity. Terra Capital shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable compensation for its services as Terra Capital and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. Terra Capital shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to such compensation for its services, except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Trustee shall provide Terra Capital reasonable notice of any expenditure not in the ordinary course of business. Terra Capital shall indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustees against any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) (other than taxes applicable to the Trustee’s compensation hereunder) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify Terra Capital promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity.

-70-

Failure by the Trustee to so notify Terra Capital shall not relieve Terra Capital of its obligations hereunder. Terra Capital shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense of such claim. The Trustee may have separate counsel at its own expense. If, however, representation in any defense by Terra Capital and its counsel would in the opinion of counsel to the Trustee create a conflict of interest, Terra Capital shall pay the expense of separate counsel to the Trustee. Terra Capital need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. Terra Capital need not pay for any settlement made without its written consent.

To secure Terra Capital’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes.

Terra Capital’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(vii) or (viii) with respect to Terra Capital, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 7.8. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time upon 30 days notice to Terra Capital. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. Terra Capital shall remove the Trustee if:

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

	(2)		the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

	(3)		a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

	(4)		the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns, or is removed by Terra Capital or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), Terra Capital shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to Terra Capital. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.7.

-71-

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, Terra Capital’s obligations under Section 7.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.9. 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 or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee, so long as such corporation is eligible under this Article 7 and TIA § 310(a).

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

SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Trustee 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. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of Terra Capital are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met.

SECTION 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Terra Capital. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

ARTICLE 8

DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE

SECTION 8.1. Discharge of Liability on Notes; Defeasance.

(a) When (i) Terra Capital delivers to the Trustee all outstanding Notes (other than Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.7) for cancellation or (ii) all outstanding Notes have become due and payable, whether at maturity or as a result of the mailing of a notice of redemption pursuant to

-72-

Article 3, and Terra Capital irrevocably deposits with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all outstanding Notes, including interest thereon, and if in either case Terra Capital pays all other sums payable hereunder by Terra Capital, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 8.1(c), cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on demand of Terra Capital accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with and at the cost and expense of Terra Capital.

(b) Subject to Sections 8.1(c) and 8.2, Terra Capital at any time may terminate (i) all its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its obligations under Sections 4.4 through 4.19, inclusive, and the operation of Sections 6.1(iv), 6.1(v), 6.1(vi), 6.1(vii) (but only with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), 6.1(viii) (but only with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), 6.1(ix) and 5.1(d)(1) and 5.1(d)(2) (“covenant defeasance option”). Terra Capital may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

If Terra Capital exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If Terra Capital exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated due to a failure to comply with any of Sections 4.4 through 4.19, inclusive, or the operation of Section 6.1(iv), 6.1(v), 6.1(vi), 6.1(vii) (but only with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), 6.1(viii) (but only with respect to Significant Subsidiaries) or 6.1(ix). If Terra Capital exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option, each Guarantor will be released from all of its obligations under Article 10.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of Terra Capital, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that Terra Capital terminates.

(c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, Terra Capital’s obligations in Sections 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 7.7, 7.8, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6 shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, Terra Capital’s obligations in Sections 7.7, 8.4 and 8.5 shall survive.

SECTION 8.2. Conditions to Defeasance. Terra Capital may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

(1) Terra Capital irrevocably deposits in trust (the “defeasance trust”) with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide cash (without reinvestment) at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal and interest on the Notes (except Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.7) to redemption or maturity, as the case may be;

(2) Terra Capital delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such

-73-

amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal and interest when due on all outstanding Notes (except Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.7) to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(3) 91 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 91-day period no Default specified in Section 6.1(vi) or (vii) with respect to Terra Capital occurs which is continuing at the end of the period;

(4) no default exists under any Indebtedness of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary;

(5) Terra Capital delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not constitute, or is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940;

(6) Terra Capital shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred (and, in the case of legal defeasance only, such Opinion of Counsel must be based on a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or change in applicable Federal income tax law);

(7) Terra Capital delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Notes as contemplated by this Article 8 have been complied with; and

(8) Terra Capital shall have paid or duly provided for payment under terms mutually satisfactory to Terra Capital and the Trustee all amounts then due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.7.

Opinions of Counsel required to be delivered under this Section may have qualifications customary for opinions of the type required and counsel delivering such Opinions of Counsel may rely on certificates of Terra Capital or government or other officials customary for opinions of the type required, including certificates certifying as to matters of fact.

Before or after a deposit, Terra Capital may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Notes at a future date in accordance with Article 3.

SECTION 8.3. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article 8. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations either directly or through the Paying Agent (including Terra Capital acting as its own Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine) and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes.

SECTION 8.4. Repayment to Terra Capital. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall notify Terra Capital of any excess money or securities held by them at any time and shall

-74-

promptly turn over to Terra Capital upon request any excess money or securities held by them at any time.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to Terra Capital upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to Terra Capital for payment as general creditors.

SECTION 8.5. Indemnity for Government Obligations. Terra Capital shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the defeased Notes; provided that the Trustee shall be entitled to charge any such tax, fee or other charge to such Holders’ account.

SECTION 8.6. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, Terra Capital’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided, however, that (a) if Terra Capital has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Notes following the reinstatement of its obligations, Terra Capital shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent and (b) unless otherwise required by any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall return all such money and U.S. Government Obligations to Terra Capital promptly after receiving a written request therefor at any time, if such reinstatement of Terra Capital’s obligations has occurred and continues to be in effect.

ARTICLE 9

AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

SECTION 9.1. Without Consent of Holders. Terra Capital and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Notes without notice to or consent of any Holder:

(1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

(2) to provide for the assumption by a successor Person of the obligations of Parent, Issuer or any Guarantor under this Indenture in accordance with Article 5;

(3) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of

-75-

Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code);

(4) to add a Guarantor;

(5) to release Parent or a Guarantor from its Guarantee when permitted by this Indenture;

(6) to add to the covenants of Parent or Terra Capital for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon Parent or Terra Capital;

(7) to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; or

(8) to make any other change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Holder.

The consent of the Holders is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment or waiver.

After an amendment or waiver under this Section becomes effective, Terra Capital is required to mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment or waiver. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of the amendment under this Section.

SECTION 9.2. With Consent of Holders. Terra Capital and the Trustee may amend this Indenture, the Notes with the consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for the Notes) and any past default or compliance with any provision may also be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. However, without the consent of each Holder of outstanding Notes affected thereby, no amendment may:

(1) reduce the principal amount of or change the fixed maturity of any Note;

(2) alter the provisions with respect to redemption or repurchase provisions of any Note or this Indenture in a manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes (other than the provisions of this Indenture relating to any offer to purchase required under Section 4.8);

(3) waive a redemption or purchase payment due with respect to any Note;

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

(5) waive a Default in the payment of principal or interest on the Notes (except that Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes

-76-

may (x) rescind an acceleration of the Notes that resulted from a nonpayment default and (y) waive the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(6) make the principal of or interest on any Note payable in money other than United States Dollars;

(7) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of or interest on the Notes;

(8) make the Notes or any Guarantee subordinated by their or its terms in right of payment to any other Indebtedness;

(9) release Parent or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary from its Guarantee except in compliance with this Indenture; or

(10) make any change in the amendment and waiver provisions of this Indenture.

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

After an amendment or waiver under this Section becomes effective, Terra Capital shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment or waiver. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment or waiver.

SECTION 9.3. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Notes shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

SECTION 9.4. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note. An amendment or waiver becomes effective once the requisite number of consents are received by Terra Capital or the Trustee. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder.

Terra Capital may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

-77-

SECTION 9.5. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder.

Alternatively, if Terra Capital or the Trustee so determines, Terra Capital in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

SECTION 9.6. Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article 9 (other than Section 9.1(4)) if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment complies with the provisions of this Article 9.

ARTICLE 10

GUARANTEES

SECTION 10.1. Guarantees. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns as primary obligor and not merely as a surety, on a senior basis, the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of Terra Capital under this Indenture and the Notes whether for payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all such obligations guaranteed by the Guarantors being herein called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantors will agree to pay, in addition to the amount stated above, any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under the Guarantees. Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Guarantor and that such Guarantor will remain bound under this Article 10 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.

Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to Terra Capital of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against Terra Capital or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (f) any change in the ownership of such Guarantor.

-78-

Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.2, 10.2 and 10.6, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Terra Capital or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of Terra Capital to pay any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of Terra Capital to the Holders and the Trustee.

Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of such Guarantor’s Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 6, the Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section.

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

-79-

SECTION 10.2. Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the obligations of each Guarantor (other than the Guarantee by Parent and each other parent company of Issuer) shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations hereunder, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal, state or foreign law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under a Guarantee shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount pro rata based on the net assets of each Guarantor.

SECTION 10.3. Successors and Assigns. This Article 10 shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.4. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 10 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 10 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

SECTION 10.5. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article 10, nor the consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 10.6. Release of Guarantor. A Guarantor will, by execution and delivery to the Trustee of a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee, be automatically and unconditionally released from its Guarantee upon either of the following:

(x) any sale, exchange or transfer by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary to any Person that is not an Affiliate of Parent of all of the Capital Stock of, or all or substantially all the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary, which sale, exchange or transfer is made in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture; or

-80-

(y) the designation of such Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or as an Immaterial Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture;

provided, in each such case, Parent has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transactions have been complied with and that such release is authorized and permitted under this Indenture.

SECTION 10.7. Execution of Supplemental Indenture for Future Guarantors. Each Subsidiary which is required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.5 shall, and Terra Capital shall cause each such Subsidiary to, promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit F hereto pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under this Article 10 and shall guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, Terra Capital shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Subsidiary and that, subject to the application of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and to the principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, the Guarantee of such Guarantor is a valid and legally binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms.

ARTICLE 11

SECTION 11.6. When Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by Terra Capital or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with Parent shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes which the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Also, subject to the foregoing, only Notes outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination.
