This Note Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.
(b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes, the Original Indenture or the First Supplemental Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Companies, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

(f) The Guarantors shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.
(g) As between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Seven of the Indenture for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Seven of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee.
Section 2.02. Execution and Delivery. Each Guarantor agrees that the Note Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.
Section 2.03. Guarantor May Consolidate, Etc., on Certain Terms. A Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless either:
(a) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and
(b) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger is a corporation or limited liability company, organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Second Supplemental Indenture and its Note Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee; or

Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon
5
all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Second Supplemental Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Second Supplemental Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.
Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 6 of the First Supplemental Indenture, and notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in the Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor.

Section 2.05. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, stockholder or agent of the Guarantor (or any holder of an Equity Interest in the Guarantor), as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the Notes, any Note Guarantees, the Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture or this Second Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting the Note Guarantee waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Guarantee of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.
Article III. Events of Default
In addition to the Events of Default contained in Section 7.01 of the First Supplemental Indenture, occurrence of the following events shall constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture:
(a) any Note Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms of the Indenture) or is declared null and void in a judicial proceeding or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Note Guarantee; or

(ii) the Company or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any of them, denies or disaffirms, in writing, any obligation of the Company or any Guarantor set forth in or arising under any Note Lien Security Document, except to the extent of any Note Lien purported to be granted thereunder which purports to encumber Collateral that has been released in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Note Lien Security Documents.
Article IV. Note Lien Collateral
Section 4.01 Note Lien Collateral and Note Lien Security Documents. The due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an Interest Payment Date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes and performance of all other obligations of the Company to the Holders of Notes or the Trustee or the Note Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Notes, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder, are secured as provided in the Note Lien Security Documents.

No co-trustee or separate trustee or co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.08 and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee or co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent shall be required. Every separate trustee and co-trustee or separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(a) | all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee and/or the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (or by the Note Lien Collateral Agent and such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Trustee and/or the Note Lien Collateral Agent shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee or separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent; |
(b) | no trustee or collateral agent hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee or collateral agent hereunder or under any Note Lien Security Document; |
