Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company or a Guarantor may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company or a Guarantor stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company or such Guarantor, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

SECTION 1.04. Acts of Holders; Record Dates. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent or proxy duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company or a Guarantor, as applicable. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent or proxy shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.04.

The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

The ownership of Securities shall be proved exclusively by the Security Register for all purposes.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, the Company or a Guarantor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities; provided, however, that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, however, that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Record Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), nor shall anything in this paragraph be construed to render ineffective any action taken pursuant to or in accordance with any other provision of this Indenture by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Record Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 1.06.

The Trustee may but need not set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 5.02, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.07(ii) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 5.12. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, however, that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Record Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), nor shall anything in this paragraph be construed to render ineffective any action taken pursuant to or in accordance with any other provision of this Indenture by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the matter(s) to be submitted for potential action by Holders and the applicable Record Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 1.06.

With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Record Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Record Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided, however, that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Record Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 1.06, on or before the existing Record Expiration Date. If a Record Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Record Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Record Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Record Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents or proxies each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

SECTION 1.05. Notices to Trustee, the Company or a Guarantor. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

(i)            the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or a Guarantor shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing and delivered electronically or mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or

(ii)           the Company or a Guarantor by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and delivered electronically or mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company or such Guarantor addressed to it at the address of the Company’s principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

SECTION 1.06. Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing (including facsimile and electronic transmissions in PDF format) and delivered electronically or mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, or, in the case of a Global Security, sent in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given electronically or by mail, neither the failure to deliver electronically, mail or receive such notice, nor any defect in any such notice, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency or validity of such notice. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice electronically or by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

SECTION 1.07. No Incorporation by Reference of Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no obligation or requirement under the Trust Indenture Act shall be applicable to the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligations of the Securities, except as specifically set forth in this Indenture.

SECTION 1.08. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

SECTION 1.09. Successors and Assigns. Without limiting Articles VIII and XIII, all covenants and agreements in this Indenture by each of the Company or the Guarantors shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

SECTION 1.10. Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

SECTION 1.11. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders of Securities, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

SECTION 1.12. Governing Law. This Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

SECTION 1.13. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Special Mandatory Redemption Date, Purchase Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect (including with respect to the accrual of interest) as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Special Mandatory Redemption Date, Purchase Date, or at the Stated Maturity, and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the intervening period.

SECTION 1.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE GUARANTORS, THE HOLDERS AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

SECTION 1.15. Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes, pandemics and epidemics, or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

SECTION 1.16. U.S.A. Patriot Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree that they shall provide the Trustee with such information as it may reasonably request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act. The Trustee acknowledges that it has received all information required pursuant to this Section 1.16 as of the date hereof.

SECTION 1.17. Copies of Transaction Documents. Upon written request from a Holder, the Company shall provide copies of this Indenture or the related Offering Memorandum to such Holder.

SECTION 1.18. Financial Calculations for Limited Condition Transactions. When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including the incurrence of Liens and the use of proceeds thereof and repayments), in each case, at the option of the Company (the Company’s election to exercise such option, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination for availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any Event of Default)) under this Indenture shall be deemed to be the date (the “LCT Test Date”) the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable notice, declaration of a dividend or similar event), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including the incurrence of Liens and the use of proceeds thereof and repayments) and any related pro forma adjustments, the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such actions or consummate such transactions on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied with (or satisfied) for all purposes; provided that (a) compliance with such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including the incurrence of Liens and the use of proceeds thereof and repayments) and (b) Consolidated Cash Flow Available for Fixed Charges for purposes of the Senior Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably determined by the Company in good faith.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has made an LCT Election, (i) if any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated Cash Flow Available for Fixed Charges or Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations (and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred due to such failure to comply), and (ii) in calculating the availability under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Condition Transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated and the date that the definitive agreement or date for redemption, purchase or repayment specified in an irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated, expires or passes, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be determined or tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction.

SECTION 1.19. Certain Compliance Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture under a restrictive covenant that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any Senior Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio test) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture that requires compliance with any such financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), in a single transaction or action or series of related transactions or actions (for the purposes of this Section 1.19, a “Relevant Transaction”), the Fixed Amounts (and any cash proceeds thereof and the uses of such proceeds) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence Based Amounts in connection with such Relevant Transaction.

The Securities shall be known and designated as the “6.125% Senior Notes due 2034” of the Company. Their Stated Maturity for payment of principal shall be March 15, 2034. Interest on the Securities shall accrue at the rate of 6.125% per annum and shall be payable semiannually in arrears on each March 15 and September 15, commencing September 15, 2024, to the Holders of record of Securities at the close of business on March 1 and September 1, respectively, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. Subject to Section 3.13(3), interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from March 11, 2024. Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

The Securities shall be redeemable as provided in Article XI and in the Securities.

The Securities shall be subject to satisfaction and discharge as provided in Article IV and to Legal Defeasance and/or Covenant Defeasance as provided in Article XII.

SECTION 3.02. Denominations. The Securities issued on the Issue Date shall be issued only in registered form without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

SECTION 3.03. Execution and Authentication. The terms and provisions contained in the Securities annexed hereto as Exhibit A shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby.

The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its Chief Executive Officer, its President or one of its Vice Presidents, its Chief Operating Officer, its Chief Financial Officer or any authorized signatory that is not a corporation. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual, facsimile or electronic.

Securities bearing the manual, facsimile or electronic signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, which shall specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities as provided in this Indenture and not otherwise.

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual, facsimile or electronic signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Authentication by counterpart shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.03 and the requirements of the Securities.

This Indenture shall be valid, binding, and enforceable against a party when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an original manual signature; (ii) a faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or (iii) any other electronic signature permitted by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law, including any relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (collectively, “Signature Law”), in each case to the extent applicable. Each faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Each party hereto shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, of any other party and shall have no duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but such counterparts shall, together, constitute one and the same instrument. For the avoidance of doubt, original manual signatures shall be used for execution or indorsement of writings when required under the Uniform Commercial Code or other Signature Law due to the character or intended character of the writings.

SECTION 3.04. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of Definitive Securities, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

If temporary Securities are issued, the Company shall cause Definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for Definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 10.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of Definitive Securities of authorized denominations and of a like tenor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Securities.

SECTION 3.05. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 10.02 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Company may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed (a) the initial “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided and (b) the Securities Custodian with respect to the Global Securities.

The Securities shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Security for registration of transfer and in compliance with the Appendix. When a Security is presented to the Security Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Security Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements therefor are met. When Securities are presented to the Security Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of other denominations, the Security Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Security Registrar’s request.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities except as provided in Section 3.06, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 9.06 or 11.08 or in accordance with any Change of Control Offer pursuant to Section 10.10, and in any such case not involving any transfer.

Neither the Company nor the Security Registrar shall be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the delivery of a notice of redemption of Securities selected for redemption under Section 11.05 or Section 11.09, as applicable, and ending at the close of business on the day of such delivery, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part or (iii) to register the transfer of any Securities other than Securities having a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, and the Security Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest, if any, on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, or the Security Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Any Holder of a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such Global Security, agree that transfers of beneficial interest in such Global Security may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Security (or its agent) or (b) any Holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Security, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Security shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. The transferor shall also provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to comply with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including without limitation any cost basis reporting obligations under Internal Revenue Code Section 6045. In connection with any proposed transfer outside the book entry only system, the Company or DTC shall be required to provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to comply with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including without limitation any cost basis reporting obligations under Internal Revenue Code Section 6045. The Trustee may rely on any such information provided to it and shall have no responsibility to verify or ensure the accuracy of such information.

The Trustee and the Security Registrar shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Global Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

SECTION 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute, and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.06, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 3.06 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 Securities.

SECTION 3.07. Payment of Interest; Rights Preserved. Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more predecessor securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest payment.

Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in paragraph (1) or (2) below:

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner: the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause (1) provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 15 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each Holder in the manner specified in Section 1.06, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so delivered or mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 and Section 3.05, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 3.08. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 3.09. Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or tendered and accepted pursuant to any Change of Control Offer pursuant to Section 10.10 shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 3.09, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be cancelled by the Trustee in its customary manner.

SECTION 3.10. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

SECTION 3.11. CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use the CUSIP or ISIN numbers in notices of redemption or repurchase as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption or repurchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption or repurchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers.

SECTION 3.12. Deposits of Monies. Except to the extent payment of interest is made by the Company’s check pursuant to Section 3.01, prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Special Mandatory Redemption Date, Stated Maturity, and Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds money sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Special Mandatory Redemption Date, Stated Maturity and Purchase Date, as the case may be, in a timely manner which permits the Paying Agent to remit payment to the Holders on such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Special Mandatory Redemption Date, Stated Maturity, and Purchase Date, as the case may be.

SECTION 3.13. Issuance of Additional Securities. The Company shall be entitled to issue Additional Securities under this Indenture which shall have identical terms as the Securities issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price; provided, however, that no Additional Securities shall be issued that are not fungible for U.S. Federal tax purposes with any other securities issued under this Indenture. The Securities issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Securities shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture and shall vote and consent, together with any Outstanding Securities as one class, on all matters that require their vote or consent under this Indenture, except in the case of any matter that affects only the Outstanding Securities.

With respect to any Additional Securities, the Company shall set forth in a resolution of its Board of Directors and an Officers’ Certificate, a copy of each of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information:

(1) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Securities which are to be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture;

(2) the issue price and issuance date of such Additional Securities, including the date from which interest on such Additional Securities shall accrue; and

(3) if applicable, that such Additional Securities shall be issuable in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities and, in such case, the respective depositaries for such Global Securities, the form of any legend or legends which shall be borne by such Global Securities in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Exhibit A hereto and any circumstances in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Section 2.3 of the Appendix in which any such Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Additional Securities registered, or any transfer of such Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name or names of Persons other than the depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

ARTICLE IV
Satisfaction and Discharge

SECTION 4.01. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Securities herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when:

(1) either:

(A)            all the Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or repaid as provided in Section 3.06 and (ii) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(B)            all Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (other than Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or repaid as provided in Section 3.06),

(i)            have become due and payable,

(ii)           will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or

(iii)          will become due and payable within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company,

and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Securities to the date of deposit (in the case of the Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, together with irrevocable instructions from the Company directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the deposit, with any deficit as of the Redemption Date only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the Redemption Date;

(2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company or the Guarantors; and

(3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to this Article IV, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.07, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section 4.01, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.02 and the last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.

SECTION 4.02. Application of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee.

ARTICLE V
Remedies

SECTION 5.01. Events of Default. “Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(1) default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, when due and payable, on any of the Securities (at Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, required purchase or otherwise);

(3) default in the performance of, or breach of, the provisions set forth in Article VIII;

(4) failure to comply with any of its obligations set forth in Section 10.10 in connection with a Change of Control (other than a default with respect to the failure to purchase the Securities), for a period of 30 days after written notice of such failure has been given to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30.0% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

(5) default in the performance of, or breach of, any covenant or agreement of the Company or the Guarantors under this Indenture (other than a default in the performance or breach of a covenant or agreement which is specifically dealt with in clauses (1), (2), (3) or (4)) and such default or breach shall continue for a period of 60 days after written notice has been given, by certified mail:

(A)            to the Company by the Trustee; or

(B)            to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 30.0% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

(6) default or defaults under one or more agreements, instruments, mortgages, bonds, debentures or other evidences of Indebtedness under which the Company or any Significant Subsidiary then has outstanding Indebtedness in excess of the Threshold Amount, in each case, either individually or in the aggregate, and either:

(A)            such Indebtedness is already due and payable in full; or

(B)            such default or defaults have resulted in the acceleration of the maturity of such Indebtedness;

provided that no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to occur with respect to any such accelerated Indebtedness that is paid or is otherwise acquired or retired within 20 Business Days after such acceleration;

(7) one or more judgments, orders or decrees of any court or regulatory or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction for the payment of money in excess of the Threshold Amount, in each case, either individually or in the aggregate, shall be entered against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or any of their respective properties and shall not be discharged and there shall have been a period of 90 days after the date on which any period for appeal has expired and during which a stay of enforcement of such judgment, order or decree, shall not be in effect;

(8) the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises:

(A)            for relief in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar law; or

(B)            adjudging the Company or any Significant Subsidiary bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary under the Bankruptcy Code or any other similar federal, state or foreign law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or of any substantial part of any of their properties, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of any of their affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days;

(9) the institution by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of a voluntary case or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other similar federal, state or foreign law or any other case or proceedings to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in any involuntary case or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other similar federal, state or foreign law or to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, or the filing by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under the Bankruptcy Code or any other similar federal, state or foreign law, or the consent by it to the filing of any such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or sequestrator (or other similar official) of any of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or

(10) any of the Guarantees of the Securities by a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect or any of such Guarantees is declared to be null and void and unenforceable or any of such Guarantees is found to be invalid or any of the Guarantors denies its liability under its Guarantee (other than by reason of release of a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Indenture) and such event continues for 10 Business Days.

SECTION 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default (other than those covered by clause (8) or (9) of Section 5.01 with respect to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary) shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee, acting at the direction of the Holders of not less than 30.0% in aggregate principal amount of Securities then Outstanding, by written notice to the Company specifying the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a “notice of acceleration,” may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all of the Outstanding Securities due and payable immediately; provided that a notice of Event of Default may not be given with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Holders, more than two years prior to such notice of Event of Default.

Any notice of Event of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Event of Default, notice of acceleration or to take any other action (a “Noteholder Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such Holder to the Company and the Trustee that such Holder is not (or, in the case such Holder is DTC or its nominee, that such Holder is being instructed solely by beneficial owners that have represented to such Holder that they are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction relating to a notice of Event of Default shall be deemed repeated at all times until the resulting Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist or the Securities are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder must, at the time of providing a Noteholder Direction, provide the Company with such other information as the Company may reasonably request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such Directing Holder’s Position Representation within five Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). The Trustee shall have no duty whatsoever to provide this information to the Company or to obtain this information for the Company. In any case in which the Holder is DTC or its nominee, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the beneficial owner of the Securities in lieu of DTC or its nominee.

If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Securities, the Company determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe a Directing Holder was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee evidence that the Company has filed papers with a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation and seeking to invalidate any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to such Event of Default shall be automatically stayed pending a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Securities, the Company provides to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that a Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant, the cure period with respect to any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction shall be automatically stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant. Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such Holder’s participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if, without the participation of such Holder, the percentage of Securities held by the remaining Holders that provided such Noteholder Direction would have been insufficient to validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio, with the effect that such Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred.

If an Event of Default specified in clause (8) or (9) of Section 5.01 with respect to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary occurs and is continuing, then the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Outstanding Securities shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities.

After a declaration of acceleration under this Indenture, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind such declaration if:

(1) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

(A)            all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel;

(B)            all overdue interest on all Securities;

(C)            the principal of and premium, if any, on any Securities which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by the Securities; and

(D)            to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest and overdue principal at the rate borne by the Securities which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration;

(2) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

(3) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company and each Guarantor covenants that if

(i)            default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or

(ii)           default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security on the due date for payment thereof, including, with respect to any Security required to have been purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company, at the Purchase Date thereof, the Company or such Guarantor shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate provided by the Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

The Trustee shall be entitled to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and of the Holders of the Securities allowed in any judicial proceeding relative to the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities, its creditors, or its property, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of its charges and expenses; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for compensation and expenses, including counsel fees incurred by it up to the date of such distribution.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem necessary to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

SECTION 5.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company, a Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Securities), any of their property or any of their creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07.

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee.

SECTION 5.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, distributions and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 5.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article V shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07;

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively;

THIRD: To the payment of any and all other amounts due under this Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees; and

FOURTH: To the Company (or such other Person as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct).

SECTION 5.07. Limitation on Suits. Subject to Section 5.08, no Holder of any Security shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

(i)            such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(ii)            the Holders of not less than 30.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(iii)            such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(iv)            the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

(v)            no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities; it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders), or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders.

SECTION 5.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the contractual right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date, in the case of a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and required to be accepted as to such Security, on the relevant Purchase Date or, in the case of a Special Mandatory Redemption, on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such contractual rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, each Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted, subject to the determination in such proceeding.

SECTION 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

SECTION 5.12. Control by Holders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee under this Indenture; provided that;

(i)            such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and

(ii)           the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default

(i)            in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security (including any Security which is required to have been redeemed or purchased pursuant to a Special Mandatory Redemption or a Change of Control Offer which has been made by the Company, as applicable); or

(ii)           in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article IX cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected.

Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. In the case of any such waiver, the Company, the Guarantors or any other obligor under the Securities, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Securities, respectively.

If a Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another Default (the “Initial Default”) occurs, then, at the time such Initial Default is cured, such Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another Default that resulted solely because of that Initial Default will also be cured without any further action. Any Default or Event of Default for the failure to comply with the time periods prescribed in Section 10.12 or otherwise to deliver any notice or certificate pursuant to any provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to be cured upon the delivery of any such report required by Section 10.12 or such notice or certificate, as applicable, even though such delivery is not within the prescribed period specified in this Indenture. Any time period in this Indenture to cure any actual or alleged Default or Event of Default may be extended or stayed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

SECTION 5.14. 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, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may in its discretion require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), and may in its discretion assess reasonable costs against any such party litigant, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant; provided that this Section 5.14 shall not be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company or a Guarantor, in any suit instituted by the Trustee, in any suit instituted by any Holder or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or in any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date, in the case of a Change of Control Offer, made by the Company and required to be accepted as to such Security, on the applicable Purchase Date, or, in the case of a Special Mandatory Redemption, on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, in each case as applicable).

SECTION 5.15. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company and each Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and each Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

(c)           No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent misconduct, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct except that no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers under this Indenture, unless the Trustee has received security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

(f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled (subject to reasonable confidentiality arrangements as may be proposed by the Company or any Guarantor) to make reasonable examination (upon prior notice and during regular business hours) of the books, records and premises of the Company or a Guarantor, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

(g) 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 or custodians or nominees and the Trustee shall not be responsible for the supervision of, or any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder;

(h) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

(i) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder;

(k) in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action;

SECTION 6.04. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 6.05. May Hold Securities. The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar, any Securities Custodian or any other agent of the Company or any Guarantor, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 6.08 and 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Company or a Guarantor with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar, Securities Custodian or such other agent.

SECTION 6.06. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company.

SECTION 6.07. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); (2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to promptly reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable and documented expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable and documented compensation and the reasonable and documented expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may have been caused by its negligence or willful misconduct; and (3) to indemnify the Trustee, its directors, officers, agents and employees for, and to hold them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the revenue or income of the Trustee), arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, a Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

The Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities as to all property and funds held by it hereunder for any amount owing to it pursuant to this Section 6.07, except with respect to funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(8) or Section 5.01(9), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section 6.07 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and any satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

SECTION 6.08. Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, this Indenture.

If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of a federal or state supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.09, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.09, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VI.

SECTION 6.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11.

(b)           The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Company and the resigning Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(c)           The Trustee may be removed at any time by (i) Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company, or (ii) except during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, the Company, by a Board Resolution. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Company and the Trustee being removed within 30 days after the giving of such notice of removal, the Trustee being removed may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(d)           If at any time:

(i)            the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

(ii)           the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company, any Guarantor or by any such Holder, or

(iii)          the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;

then, in any such case, (A) the Company or any Guarantor, in each case by a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 5.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(e)            If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(f)            The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in Section 1.06. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

(g)            The resignation or removal of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.10 shall not affect the obligation of the Company to indemnify the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.07(3) in connection with the exercise or performance by the Trustee prior to its resignation or removal of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

(h)            No Trustee under this Indenture shall be liable for any action or omission of any successor Trustee.

SECTION 6.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article VI.

SECTION 6.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided, however, that such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VI, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

SECTION 6.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company or a Guarantor. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company or a Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company or such Guarantor (or any such other obligor).

SECTION 6.14. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption or partial purchase or pursuant to Section 3.06, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.14, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.14, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 6.14.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent; provided that such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 6.14, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.14, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such appointment in the manner provided in Section 1.06, to all Holders as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.14.

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 6.14.

If an appointment is made pursuant to this Section 6.14, the Securities may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

This is one of the Securities described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

(x)            to make such provisions as necessary (as determined in good faith by the Company) for the issuance of Additional Securities; or

(xi)            to evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment under this Indenture of a successor Trustee pursuant to the requirements hereof.

provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and Officers’ Certificate stating that such action pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vii) or (viii) above is not prohibited by this Indenture. The Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such amendment, waiver or supplemental indenture that adversely affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 9.02. Modifications, Amendments and Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. With the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the Company and the Guarantors, when authorized by Board Resolutions, and the Trustee may together modify, amend or supplement this Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such modification, amendment or supplemental indenture may, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby:

(i)            reduce the principal amount of, extend the Stated Maturity of or alter the redemption provisions of, the Securities;

(ii)            change the currency in which any Securities or any premium or the interest thereon is payable;

(iii)            reduce the percentage in principal amount of Outstanding Securities that must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver or consent to take any action under this Indenture, the Securities or any Guarantee;

(iv)            impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to the Securities or any Guarantee;

(v)            waive a default in payment with respect to the Securities or any Guarantee; or

(vi)            reduce or change the rate or time for payment of interest on the Securities.

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed modification, amendment or supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

The Trustee shall join with the Company and each Guarantor in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion but shall not be obligated to enter into such amendment or supplemental indenture.

SECTION 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be given, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such supplemental indenture is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company and the Guarantors, as applicable, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to customary limitations and exceptions. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise; provided that the Trustee shall enter into and execute all other supplemental indentures which satisfy all applicable conditions under this Article IX.

SECTION 9.04. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article IX, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

SECTION 9.05. [Reserved].

SECTION 9.06. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures. Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture; provided that any failure by the Trustee to make such notation shall not affect the validity of the matter provided for in such supplemental indenture or any Security or Guarantee hereunder. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities or Guarantees so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee, the Guarantors and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company or Guarantor and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities.

SECTION 9.07. Waiver of Certain Covenants. The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Section 8.01, Sections 10.04 to 10.11, inclusive, and Section 10.13, and pursuant to Section 9.01(ii), if before the time for such compliance the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however, with respect to an Offer as to which an Offer to Purchase has been delivered electronically or mailed, no such waiver may be made or shall be effective against any Holder tendering Securities pursuant to such Offer, and the Company may not omit to comply with the terms of such Offer as to such Holder.

SECTION 9.08. No Liability for Certain Persons. No director, officer, employee, or stockholder of Holdings or the Company, nor any director, officer or employee of any Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture based on or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The foregoing waiver and release is an integral part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities and the Guarantees.

ARTICLE X

SECTION 10.01. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company shall pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. The Company shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Trustee or its nominee, no later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the date of the Stated Maturity of any Security or no later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the due date for any installment of interest, all payments so due, which payments shall be in immediately available funds on the date of such Stated Maturity or due date, as the case may be.

The Company shall 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 the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at a Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. In the event any such notice or demands are so made or served on the Trustee, the Trustee shall promptly forward copies thereof to the Company.

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

The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as Paying Agent and Security Registrar, and the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ #▇ – ▇^▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, as one such office or agency of the Company for each of the aforesaid purposes.

SECTION 10.03. Money for Security Payments to be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it shall, on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents, the Company shall, prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time on each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

The Company shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.03, that such Paying Agent shall: (i) 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 Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment and (ii) during the continuance of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment in respect of the Securities, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent as such.

The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent (other than the Company) to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 10.04. Existence; Activities. Subject to Article VIII, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights (charter and statutory) and material franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

SECTION 10.05. [Reserved].

SECTION 10.06. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. The Company shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and (2) all lawful material claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, would by law become a lien upon property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Permitted Lien; provided, however, that the Company shall not 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 proceedings.

SECTION 10.07. [Reserved].

SECTION 10.08. [Reserved].

SECTION 10.09. Limitation on Liens. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (the “Initial Lien”) of any kind (except for Permitted Liens) securing any Indebtedness, unless the Securities are equally and ratably secured (except that Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness shall be expressly subordinate to Liens securing the Securities to the same extent such Subordinated Indebtedness is subordinate to the Securities).

(b)           Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to Section 10.09(a) shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien.

(c)           For the purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness secured by a Lien for purposes of, this Section 10.09, in the event that such Lien meets the criteria of more than one type of Permitted Lien, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall classify, and may from time to time reclassify, such Lien and only be required to include the amount and type of Indebtedness secured by such Lien in one or a combination of Permitted Liens; provided that Liens securing Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the ABL Credit Agreement shall be treated as incurred pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”.

(d)           Except as provided in clause (e) below with respect to Liens securing Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the amount of any Indebtedness secured by a Lien outstanding as of any date shall be:

(i)            the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

(ii)           the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

(iii)          in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

(A)          the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and

(B)           the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person.

(e)            For purposes of determining compliance with any dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Liens securing Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness secured by Liens pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness secured by Liens, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness secured by Liens; provided that (x) the dollar-equivalent principal amount of any such Indebtedness secured by Liens outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date, (y) if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency (or in a different currency from such Indebtedness so being incurred), and such refinancing would cause the applicable dollar-denominated restriction on Liens to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness secured by ▇▇▇▇▇, calculated as described in the following sentence, does not exceed (i) the outstanding or committed principal amount (whichever is higher) of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing and (z) the dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness secured by Liens denominated in a foreign currency and incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on, at the Company’s option, (i) the Issue Date, (ii) any date on which any of the respective commitments under such Credit Facility shall be reallocated between or among facilities or subfacilities thereunder, or on which such rate is otherwise calculated for any purpose thereunder or (iii) the date of such incurrence. The principal amount of any Indebtedness secured by Liens incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

SECTION 10.10. Change of Control. (a) On or before the 30th day after the date of the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall make an Offer to Purchase (a “Change of Control Offer”) on a Business Day not more than 60 nor less than 10 days following the delivery to each Holder of the notice described in paragraph (b) below (the “Change of Control Purchase Date”), all of the then Outstanding Securities tendered at a purchase price in cash (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the Change of Control Purchase Date. The Company shall be required to purchase all Securities tendered into the Change of Control Offer and not withdrawn.

(b)           Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall deliver a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating all other information as set forth in the definition of “Offer to Purchase.”

(c)           On the Change of Control Purchase Date, the Company shall (i) accept for payment Securities or portions thereof (not less than $2,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent money, in immediately available funds, sufficient to pay the purchase price of all Securities or portions thereof so tendered and accepted and (iii) deliver to the Trustee the Securities so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Securities or portions thereof tendered to and accepted for payment by the Company. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail or deliver to the Holders of Securities so accepted payment in an amount equal to the purchase price, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and make available for delivery to such Holders a new Security of like tenor equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Security surrendered. Any Securities not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer not later than the third Business Day following the Change of Control Purchase Date.

(d)           The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (2) notice of redemption for all outstanding Securities has been given pursuant to Section 11.01 or Section 11.09, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price.

(e)           The Company shall comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder, to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable, in the event that a Change of Control occurs and the Company is required to purchase Securities as described above.

(f)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

SECTION 10.11. Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. The Company shall cause each Domestic Restricted Subsidiary, other than (unless otherwise determined by the Company) any Foreign Subsidiary Holding Company or Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary, that guarantees any Indebtedness of the Company or of any other Restricted Subsidiary incurred pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement to, within a reasonable time thereafter, execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guaranty Agreement pursuant to which such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary will Guarantee payment of the Securities on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture (subject to any limitations that apply to the guarantee of Indebtedness giving rise to the requirement to deliver a Guaranty Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.11). This Section 10.11 shall not apply to any of the Company’s Subsidiaries that have been properly designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

SECTION 10.12. Reporting Requirements. For so long as the Securities are outstanding, whether or not the Company is subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision thereto, the Company shall file with the Commission (if permitted by Commission practice and applicable law and regulations) the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Company would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to such Section 13(a) or 15(d) or any successor provision thereto if the Company were so subject, such documents to be filed with the Commission on or prior to the respective dates (the “Required Filing Dates”) by which the Company would have been required so to file such documents if the Company were so subject. If, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, filing such documents by the Company with the Commission is not permitted by Commission practice or applicable law or regulations, the Company shall transmit (or cause to be transmitted) electronically or by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, copies of such documents within 30 days after the Required Filing Date (or make such documents available on a website maintained by the Company or Holdings). In addition, to the extent not satisfied by the foregoing, the Company shall furnish to any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective investor of the Securities, upon their request, any information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act so long as the Securities are not freely transferable under the Securities Act.

SECTION 10.13. Compliance Certificates. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, prior to April 30 in each year commencing with the year beginning on January 1, 2024, an Officers’ Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder), and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which he may have knowledge.

SECTION 10.14. Suspension of Covenants. (a) During any period of time that:

(x) the Securities have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and

(y) no Default has occurred and is continuing (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clause (x) and this clause (y) being collectively referred to as a “Suspension Event”),

the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to Sections 10.10 and 10.11 of this Indenture (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”).

(b)           In the event that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Securities below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants with respect to future events.

(c)           The period of time between the occurrence of a Suspension Event and the Reversion Date is referred to in this Indenture as the “Suspension Period.”

(d)           In the event that during the Suspension Period, a transaction is announced or the Company enters into an agreement to effect a transaction, in each case that would result in a Change of Control, and either (i) one or both of the Rating Agencies indicate that if consummated, such transaction (alone or together with any related transactions) would cause such Rating Agency to withdraw its Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Securities below an Investment Grade Rating or (ii) one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraws its Investment Grade Rating or downgrades the rating assigned to the Securities below an Investment Grade Rating within 60 days following the consummation of such transaction (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Securities is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies as a result of such transaction) and such Rating Agency announces, publicly confirms or informs the Trustee upon the Company’s written request that the withdrawal or reduction was the result of such transaction, then the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be subject to Section 10.10 with respect to such transaction and the obligations under Section 10.10 will be reinstated until the occurrence of a Suspension Event.

(e)           Upon the Reversion Date, the obligations to grant Guarantees pursuant to Section 10.11 shall be reinstated (and the Reversion Date shall be deemed to be the date on which any guaranteed Indebtedness was incurred for purposes of Section 10.11).

(f)            During the Suspension Period, at the Company’s request, the Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from all obligations under its Guarantee pursuant to Section 13.05(vii). Any Guarantees that were released pursuant to Section 13.05(vii) shall be required to be reinstated reasonably promptly to the extent such Guarantees would otherwise be required to be provided hereunder.

(g)            Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred as a result of any failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during any Suspension Period and the Company and any subsidiary shall be permitted, following a Reversion Date, without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any of the Suspended Covenants (notwithstanding the reinstatement thereof), to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a Reversion Date and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

(h)            The Company shall give the Trustee prompt written notice of any Suspension Event. In the absence of such notice the Trustee shall assume and be fully protected in so assuming the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. The Company shall give the Trustee prompt written notice of any occurrence of a Reversion Date. After any such notice of the occurrence of a Reversion Date the Trustee shall assume the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no obligation to discover or verify the existence or termination of any Suspension Event or Reversion Date.

Notices of redemption pursuant to Section 11.01 may be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent established by the Company in its sole discretion. If a redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption was delivered) as any or all conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. In addition, the Company may provide in any notice of redemption for the Securities that payment of the Redemption Price and the performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

SECTION 11.06. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to or by 11:00 a.m. New York City time on any Redemption Date or Special Mandatory Redemption Date, as applicable, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price or the Special Mandatory Redemption Price, of, and (except if the Redemption Date or the Special Mandatory Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) any applicable accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

SECTION 11.07. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in Section 11.05, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and any applicable accrued interest), interest shall cease to accrue on such Securities or portions thereof. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with any applicable accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more predecessor securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant record dates according to their terms, the provisions of Section 3.07 and, in the case of a Special Mandatory Redemption, Section 11.09(d).

If any Security called for redemption in accordance with the election of the Company made pursuant to Section 11.01 shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate provided by the Security.

SECTION 11.08. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at an office or agency of the Company designated for that purpose pursuant to Section 10.02 (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount at Stated Maturity equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount at Stated Maturity of the Security so surrendered.

SECTION 11.09. Special Mandatory Redemption. (a) If (i) the Yak Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to June 3, 2024 or such later date as the parties to the Yak Purchase Agreement may agree as the “Drop Dead Date” thereunder (the “Acquisition Deadline”), (ii) Holdings has determined that the Yak Acquisition will not be consummated on or before the Acquisition Deadline and has given the Trustee a written notice to that effect or (iii) the Yak Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms or by agreement of the parties thereto, and the Yak Acquisition has not been consummated (each, a “Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), the Company shall be required to redeem the Securities (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a redemption price (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”), which will be the earliest to occur of (i) the Acquisition Deadline, if the Yak Acquisition is not consummated on or before such date, (ii) the 10th business day following written notification by the Company to the Trustee that Holdings has determined that the Yak Acquisition will not be consummated on or before the Acquisition Deadline, and (iii) the 10th business day following the termination of the Yak Purchase Agreement, if the Yak Acquisition has not been consummated.

(b)           If the Company is required to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Special Mandatory Redemption because the Yak Acquisition is not completed on or before the Acquisition Deadline, the Company shall cause a conditional notice of redemption to be delivered electronically or mailed, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of the Securities at its registered address at least five Business Days prior to the applicable Special Mandatory Redemption Date. Such redemption notice shall be conditioned upon failure to complete the Yak Acquisition on or before the Acquisition Deadline and any other conditions the Company may determine.

(c)            In all other cases, if the Company is required to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Special Mandatory Redemption, the Company shall cause the notice of redemption to be delivered electronically or mailed, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of the Securities at its registered address within five Business Days after the occurrence of the event that requires the Company to redeem such Securities. The notice of redemption will also specify the Special Mandatory Redemption Date.

(d)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Securities that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date shall be payable on such Interest Payment Dates to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record dates in accordance with the Securities and this Indenture. If funds sufficient to pay the Special Mandatory Redemption Price of the Securities to be redeemed on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date are deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent on or before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, on and after such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Securities shall cease to bear interest.

ARTICLE XII
Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

SECTION 12.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a Board Resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, elect to have either Section 12.02 or 12.03 be applied to all Outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article XII.

SECTION 12.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 12.01 of the option applicable to this Section 12.02, the Company and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 12.04, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Outstanding Securities (including the Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities (including the Guarantees), which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 12.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Securities, the Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on written demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(i)            the rights of Holders of Outstanding Securities to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, such Securities when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 12.04;

(ii)           the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Article II, Article III and Section 10.02;

(iii)          the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and

(iv)          this Article XII.

Subject to compliance with this Article XII, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 12.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 12.03.

SECTION 12.03. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 12.01 of the option applicable to this Section 12.03, the Company and each of the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 12.04, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 10.06, 10.09, 10.10, 10.11, 10.12 and any covenant provided pursuant to Section 9.01(ii) with respect to the Outstanding Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 12.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Securities shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Securities and Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities and Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 12.01 of the option applicable to this Section 12.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 12.04, Sections 5.01(3) through 5.01(5) shall not constitute Events of Default.

SECTION 12.04. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 12.02 or 12.03:

(i)            the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on, the Outstanding Securities on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Securities are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular Redemption Date; provided that upon any defeasance that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the deposit, with any deficit as of the Redemption Date only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the Redemption Date;

(ii)           in the case of an election under Section 12.02, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that:

(1) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

(2) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law,

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and shall be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(iii)            in the case of an election under Section 12.03, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and shall be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(iv)            no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

(v)            such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

(vi)            the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of Securities over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company or others; and

(vii)            the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

SECTION 12.05. Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 12.06, all money and non-callable U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 12.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 12.04 in respect of the Outstanding Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 12.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Securities.

Notwithstanding anything in this Article XII to the contrary, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 12.04 which are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

SECTION 12.06. Repayment to Company. Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 12.07. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 12.02 or 12.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Securities and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.02 or 12.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 12.02 or 12.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE XIII
Guarantee

SECTION 13.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (a) the full and prompt payment (within applicable grace periods) of principal of and interest on the Securities when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities and (b) the full and prompt performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranty Obligations”). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranty Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Guarantor, and that such Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article XIII notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranty Obligation.

To the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required to pay any amounts on account of the Securities pursuant to a Guarantee in excess of an amount calculated as the product of (i) the aggregate amount payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors on account of the Securities pursuant to their respective Guarantees times (ii) the proportion (expressed as a fraction) that such Subsidiary Guarantor’s net assets (determined in accordance with GAAP) at the date enforcement of the Subsidiary Guarantees is sought bears to the aggregate net assets (determined in accordance with GAAP) of all Subsidiary Guarantors at such date, then such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be reimbursed by the other Subsidiary Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based upon the respective net assets (determined in accordance with GAAP) of such other Subsidiary Guarantors at the date enforcement of the Subsidiary Guarantees is sought. This paragraph is intended only to define the relative rights of Subsidiary Guarantors as among themselves, and nothing set forth in this paragraph is intended to or shall impair the joint and several obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under their respective Subsidiary Guarantees.

The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under any Guarantee; provided, however, that if a Default has occurred and is continuing, the right to receive payment in respect of such right of contribution shall be suspended until the payment in full of all Guaranty Obligations hereunder.

Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranty Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Guaranty 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 the Company or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities 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 Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranty 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 Guaranty Obligations; or (f) any change in the ownership of any Guarantor (subject to Section 13.05).

Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guaranty of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guaranty 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 Guaranty Obligations.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, 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 Guaranty Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, 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 Securities 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 Guaranty 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 each 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 principal of or interest on any Guaranty Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company 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 each Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranty Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise (within applicable grace periods), or to perform or comply with any other Guaranty Obligation (within applicable grace periods), each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, 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 principal amount of such Guaranty Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranty Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary Guaranty Obligations to the Holders or the Trustee.

Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any Guaranty Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranty Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Guaranty Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article V for the purposes of its Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranty Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranty Obligations as provided in Article V, such Guaranty Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 13.01.

Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 13.01.

SECTION 13.02. Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations guaranteed hereunder by each 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 federal or state law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer.

SECTION 13.03. Execution and Delivery of Guarantees. The Guarantees to be endorsed on the Securities shall be in the form set forth in Exhibit B. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees to execute its Guarantee in such form, to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.

Each Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of each respective Guarantor by any one of such Guarantor’s Chairman of the Board of Directors, Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, President, Chief Financial Officer, Vice Presidents or any authorized signatories for any Guarantors that are not corporations. The signature of any or all of these officers on the Guarantee may be manual, facsimile or electronic.

A Guarantee bearing the manual, facsimile or electronic signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of a Guarantor shall bind such Guarantor, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of the Security on which such Guarantee is endorsed or did not hold such offices at the date of such Guarantee.

Each Guarantee shall be registered, transferred, exchanged and cancelled, and shall be held in definitive or global form, in the same manner and together with the Security to which it relates, in accordance with Article III.

The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee endorsed thereon on behalf of the Guarantors. Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 13.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse a Guarantee on any Security.

SECTION 13.04. Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc., on Certain Terms. Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities or any Guarantee shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or a Guarantor or the merger of a wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary with and into a Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the assets of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety or the Capital Stock of a Guarantor to the Company or a Guarantor.

SECTION 13.05. Release of Guarantors. The Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from all obligations under its Guarantee endorsed on the Securities and under this Article XIII without need for any further act or the execution or delivery or any document: (i) upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of all of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided such sale or disposition is not prohibited by this Indenture; (ii) upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided such sale or disposition is not prohibited by this Indenture; (iii) upon the liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor; provided that no Default or Event of Default shall occur as a result thereof or has occurred and is continuing; (iv) upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article XII or satisfaction and discharge in accordance with Article IV; (v) if the Company properly designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture as an Unrestricted Subsidiary; (vi) upon receipt of the consent of Holders of the requisite percentage of Securities in accordance with Article IX; (vii) at the Company’s request, during any Suspension Period; or (viii) (A) if such Subsidiary Guarantor is released from its obligations under Guarantees of payment by the Company of Indebtedness of the Company under the ABL Credit Agreement or (B) at such time as such Subsidiary Guarantor does not have any other Indebtedness outstanding that would have required such Subsidiary Guarantor to enter into a Guaranty Agreement pursuant to Section 10.11. Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such transaction was made in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee endorsed on the Securities and under this Article XIII.

SECTION 13.06. Successors and Assigns. This Article XIII 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 the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

SECTION 13.07. No Waiver, etc. 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 XIII 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 XIII at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

SECTION 13.08. Modification, etc. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article XIII, nor the consent to any departure by a 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 a Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor or any other guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.

(ii)            written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Securities Custodian to make, an adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Rule 144A Global Security (in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(A)) or Permanent Regulation S Global Security (in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(B)) to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Securities represented by the Rule 144A Global Security or Permanent Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase,

 (ii)          If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Security to a beneficial interest in another Global Security, the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Security to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Security from which such interest is being transferred.

 (iii)         Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.
