CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION

This Security is one of the Securities of the series referred to herein issued pursuant to the within-mentioned Indenture.

[__________________________________],

as Trustee

By: ______________________________

In addition, the Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, rule or usage to which the Issuer is subject.

The terms and provisions contained in the Securities shall constitute, and are expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Issuer, the Guarantors

and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and agree to be bound thereby. If there is a conflict between the terms of the Securities and this Indenture, the terms of this Indenture shall govern.

The Securities may be presented for registration of transfer and exchange at the offices of the Registrar.

SECTION 2.02. Execution and Authentication.

The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by one Officer of the Issuer.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security was an Officer at the time of such execution but no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

Unless otherwise established pursuant to Section 2.03 for the Securities of any series, no Security or Guarantee endorsed thereon shall be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. Such signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuer, and the Issuer shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.13, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Securities. Unless otherwise provided in the appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate the Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Issuer and Affiliates of the Issuer. Each Paying Agent is designated as an authenticating agent for purposes of this Indenture and the Issuer hereby confirms that such appointment is acceptable to it.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Issuer having endorsed xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx executed by the Guarantors to the Trustee for authentication together with the applicable documents referred to below in this Section 2.02, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver such Securities to or upon the written order of the Issuer. In authenticating the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive prior to the first authentication of any Securities of such series, and (subject to Article Seven) shall be fully

protected in relying upon, in addition to the Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel required by Section 11.04:

(b) an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer or the Guarantors, as appropriate, setting forth the form or forms and terms of the Securities or such Guarantees and stating that the form or forms and terms of the Securities of such series or such Guarantees have been, or will be when established in accordance with such procedures as shall be referred to therein, established in compliance with this Indenture;

(i) to the effect that the form or forms and terms of such Securities or such Guarantees have been established by or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or by a supplemental indenture as permitted by Section 2.01 and 2.03 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(ii) to the effect that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Issuer in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Issuer, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally, general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) or an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and such other matters as shall be specified therein;

(iii) to the effect that such Guarantees, when the Securities upon which they shall have been endorsed have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Issuer in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Guarantors, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally, general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) or an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and such other matters as shall be specified therein; and

(iv) and covers such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request.

Unless the terms established pursuant to Section 2.03 for the Securities of a series or portion thereof provide that any such Securities are to be issued in any form other than as Global Securities, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities that (i) shall state the aggregate principal amount of all of the Securities of such series issued in such form and not yet cancelled, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the nominee of the Common Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Common Depositary and (iv) shall bear the Global Security Legend.

In the event that definitive Securities are issued and the Paying Agent informs the Issuer that it is unable to perform its obligations under this Indenture, the Issuer shall forthwith appoint another or an additional agent in accordance with Section 7.13 which is able to perform such obligations and satisfy the requirements set forth in this Section 2.05.

The Issuer shall be responsible for making calculations called for under the Securities of each series, including but not limited to determination of redemption price, premium, if any, and any additional amounts or other amounts payable on the Securities of such series.

Subject to Sections 2.17 and 2.18, when Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request from the Holder of such Securities to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of the same series of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested. Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorneys duly authorized in writing. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall issue and execute and, upon receipt of a written order of the

Issuer in the form of an Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate new Securities (and the Guarantors shall execute the Guarantees thereon) evidencing such transfer or exchange at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made to the Holders for any registration of transfer or exchange. The Issuer or the Trustee may require from the Holder payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer taxes or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to a transfer or exchange, but this provision shall not apply to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.12, 3.07, 4.08 or 8.05 (in which events the Issuer shall be responsible for the payment of such taxes). The Registrar shall not be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Security of a series for a period of 15 days immediately preceding the mailing of notice of redemption of Securities of such series to be redeemed or of any Security of such series selected, called or being called for redemption except the unredeemed portion of any Security of such series being redeemed in part.

Any Holder of a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such Global Security, agree that transfers of the beneficial interests in such Global Security may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by the Holder of such Global Security (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the Global Security shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

SECTION 2.09. Replacement Securities.

If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or the Trustee, or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security of the same series (and the Guarantors shall execute the Guarantees thereon) if the Holder of such Security furnishes to the Issuer and the Trustee evidence reasonably acceptable to them of the ownership and the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code as in effect on the applicable Issue Date are met. If required by the Trustee, the Agents or the Issuer, an indemnity bond shall be posted, sufficient in the judgment of all to protect the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Registrar, and any Paying Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if such Security is replaced. The Issuer may charge such Holder for the Issuer’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in replacing such Security and the Trustee may charge the Issuer for the Trustee’s out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in replacing such Security and may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment, fee or other charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the Trustee incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and the out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the Trustee incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default) connected therewith. Every replacement Security shall constitute a contractual obligation of the Issuer. The provisions of this Section 2.09 are exclusive and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of lost, destroyed, mutilated or wrongfully taken Securities.

SECTION 2.10. Outstanding Securities.

The Securities of a series outstanding at any time are all Securities of such series that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for (a) those canceled by or on behalf of the Trustee, (b) those accepted by the Trustee for cancellation, (c) to the extent set forth in Sections 9.01 and 9.02, on or after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 9.01 or 9.02 have been satisfied, those Securities theretofore authenticated by the Trustee hereunder and (d) those described in this Section 2.10 as not outstanding. Subject to Section 2.11, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or one of its Affiliates holds the Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Security is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer.

If a Paying Agent holds, in its capacity as such, on any Maturity Date, U.S. Dollars or other applicable currency sufficient to pay all accrued interest and principal with respect to the Securities payable on that date and is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders thereof pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Securities shall cease to be outstanding and interest on them shall cease to accrue.

SECTION 2.11. Treasury Securities.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of a series of Securities have concurred in any declaration of acceleration or notice of default or direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, Securities of such series owned by the Issuer or any other Affiliate of the Issuer shall be disregarded as though they were not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, only Securities of a series as to which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actually received an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Securities are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee established to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to the Securities of such series and that the pledgee is not the Issuer, a Guarantor, any other obligor on the Securities of such series or any of their respective Affiliates.

SECTION 2.12. Temporary Securities.

Until definitive Securities of any series are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare, and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities of such series. Temporary Securities of any series shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities of such series, having endorsed thereon Guarantees duly executed by the Guarantors substantially in the form of definitive Guarantees, but may have insertions, substitutions, omissions and other variations determined to be appropriate by the officers of the Issuer executing the temporary Securities and Guarantees, as evidenced by their execution of such temporary Securities and Guarantees. If

temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Issuer will cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series and tenor, each such Security having endorsed thereon a Guarantee duly executed by the Guarantors, upon surrender of such temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Issuer designated for such purpose, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series the Issuer and the Guarantors shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of such series and tenor and authorized denominations, each such Security having endorsed thereon a Guarantee duly executed by the Guarantors. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and tenor.

SECTION 2.13. Cancellation.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such canceled Securities in its customary manner. The Issuer may not reissue or resell or issue new Securities to replace Securities that the Issuer has redeemed or paid, or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 2.14. Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuer defaults on a payment of interest on a series of Securities on any Interest Payment Date, the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest then borne by such series of Securities plus (to the extent permitted by law) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, in accordance with the terms hereof, to the Persons who are Holders thereof on a subsequent special record date, which date shall be at least five Business Days prior to the payment date. If such default continues for thirty (30) days, the Issuer shall fix such special record date and payment date in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee. At least ten (10) days before such special record date, the Issuer (or upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail to each affected Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest, and interest payable on defaulted interest, if any, to be paid. The Issuer may make payment of any defaulted interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements (if applicable) of any securities exchange on which the applicable series of Securities may be listed and, upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this sentence, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. If the Issuer elects for the Trustee to send such notice to the Holders then the Issuer shall provide such notice to the Trustee at least ten (10) days (or such shorter time as may be agreed by the Trustee in its discretion) before such notice is required to be mailed to the Holders of the applicable series of Securities.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any interest which is paid prior to the expiration of the 30-day period set forth in Section 6.01(1) shall be paid to Holders of such series of Securities as of the record date for the Interest Payment Date for which interest has not been paid.

SECTION 2.15. CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.

The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers, and if so used, such CUSIP and ISIN numbers shall be included in notices as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN numbers printed in the notice or on the Securities, that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such CUSIP or ISIN numbers. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee, in writing, of any such CUSIP or ISIN number used by the Issuer in connection with the issuance of the Securities and of any change in any such CUSIP or ISIN number.

SECTION 2.16. Deposit of Moneys.

Except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03 for Securities of any series, prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on each Interest Payment Date and Maturity Date of a series of Securities (but not prior to the Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as applicable), the Issuer shall have deposited with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds U.S. Dollars sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date with respect to such series of Securities, as the case may be, in a timely manner which permits such Paying Agents to remit payment to the Holders on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. The principal and interest on Global Securities shall be payable to the Depository or its nominee, as the sole registered owner and the sole Holder of the Global Securities represented thereby. The principal and interest on Physical Securities shall be payable, either in person, by wire transfer or by mail, at the office of the Paying Agent. Final payment of principal at maturity will only be made by the Trustee upon surrender of the related Security to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office.

SECTION 2.17. Book-Entry Provisions for Global Securities.

(a) The Securities of an applicable series initially shall be represented by one or more Securities of such series in registered, global form without interest coupons (“Global Securities”). The Global Securities initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the nominee of the Depository for credit to an account of an Agent Member and (ii) be delivered to the Depository. Members of, or direct or indirect participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depository or under the Global Securities. The Depository may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Securities for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as

between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security. None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor the Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of the Depository with respect to such Global Security, for the records of the Depository, including records in respect of the beneficial owners of any such Global Security, for any transactions between the Depository and any Agent Member or between or among the Depository, any such Agent Member and/or any Holder or beneficial owner of such Global Security, or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Security.

(b) Transfers of Global Securities shall be limited to transfer in whole, but not in part, to the Depository, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Securities may be transferred or exchanged for Physical Securities only in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository and the provisions of Section 2.18. In addition, a Global Security shall be exchangeable for Physical Securities (i) if requested by a holder of such interests upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions from the Depository or its nominee on behalf of any beneficial owner and in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and provisions of this Section 2.17 or (ii) if the Depository notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for such Global Security and the Issuer thereupon fail to appoint a successor depository within 120 days or (iii) if the Depository has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act or (iv) if there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Security and the Depository has requested such exchange. In all cases, Physical Securities delivered in exchange for any Global Security or beneficial interests therein shall be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depository in accordance with its customary procedures.

(c) In connection with the transfer of a Global Security as an entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to Section 2.16(b), such Global Security shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute and, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depository in writing in exchange for its beneficial interest in such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Securities of authorized denominations.

(d) The Holder of any Global Security may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities.

SECTION 2.18. Transfer and Exchange of Securities.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.18, a Global Security may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of the Depository or to a successor thereto or a nominee of such successor thereto. A beneficial interest in a Global Security may not be exchanged for a Physical Security of the same series unless (A) the Depository notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to

continue as Depository for such Global Security and a successor Xxxxxxxxxx is not appointed by the Issuer within 120 days or (B) upon the request of a Holder if there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities. Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (A) above, Physical Securities delivered in exchange for any Global Security of the same series or beneficial interests therein will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depository (in accordance with its customary procedures). Global Securities also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Section 2.09 and Section 2.12 hereof. Every Security authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Security of the same series or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.18 or Section 2.09 or Section 2.12 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, except for Physical Securities issued subsequent to any of the preceding events in (A) or (B) above and pursuant to Section 2.18(c) hereof. A Global Security may not be exchanged for another Security other than as provided in this Section 2.18(a); provided, however, beneficial interests in a Global Security may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.18(b) or (c) hereof.

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Securities shall be effected through the Depository in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Securities also shall require compliance with either subparagraph (i) or (ii) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

(i) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Security. Beneficial interests in any Global Security may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Global Security. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.18(b)(i).

(ii) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.18(b)(i) hereof, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either (A) (1) a written order from an Agent Member given to the Depository in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depository to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Agent Member account to be credited with such increase or (B) (1) a written order from an Agent Member given to the Depository in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depository to cause to be issued a Physical Security of the same series in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given by the Depository to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Physical Security shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Securities contained in this Indenture and the

Securities or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Registrar shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Securitie(s) pursuant to Section 2.18(g) hereof.

(c) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities for Physical Securities. If any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Physical Security or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a Physical Security, then, upon the occurrence of any of the events in subsection (A) of Section 2.18(a) hereof and satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.18(b)(ii) hereof, the Registrar shall cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Security to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 2.18(g) hereof, and the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail to the Person designated in the instructions a Physical Security in the applicable principal amount. Any Physical Security issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 2.18(c) shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized denomination or denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest shall instruct the Registrar through instructions from or through the Common Depositary and the Agent Member. The Registrar shall mail such Physical Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

(d) Transfer and Exchange of Physical Securities for Beneficial Interests in Global Securities. A Holder of a Physical Security may exchange such Security for a beneficial interest in a Global Security or transfer such Physical Securities to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Security of the same series at any time. Upon receipt of a request for such an exchange or transfer, the Registrar shall cancel the applicable Physical Security and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of the Global Securities of the same series.

If any such exchange or transfer from a Physical Security to a beneficial interest is effected pursuant to this Section 2.18(d) above at a time when a Global Security has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Global Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of Physical Securities so transferred.

(e) Transfer and Exchange of Physical Securities for Physical Securities. Upon request by a Holder of Physical Securities and such Holder’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.18(e), the Registrar shall register the transfer or exchange of Physical Securities. Prior to such registration of transfer or exchange, the requesting Holder shall present or surrender to the Registrar the Physical Securities duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by such Holder or by its attorney, duly authorized in writing. Upon receipt of a request to register such a transfer, the Registrar shall register the Physical Securities pursuant to the instructions from the Holder thereof. In addition, the requesting Holder shall provide any additional certifications, documents and information, as applicable, that the Registrar may reasonably request.

(f) Global Security Legend. Each Global Security shall bear the Global Security Legend.

(g) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Securities. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Security have been exchanged for Physical Securities or a particular Global Security has been redeemed, repurchased or cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Security shall be returned to or retained and cancelled by the Registrar in accordance with Section 2.13 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security of the same series or for Physical Securities of the same series, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the Registrar or by the Depository at the direction of the Registrar to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security of the same series, such other Global Security shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the Registrar or by the Depository at the direction of the Registrar to reflect such increase.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate, authenticate Physical Securities and Global Securities at the Registrar’s request

(ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

(iii) The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of (a) any Security selected for redemption in whole or in part pursuant to Article Three, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part, or (b) any Security for a period beginning 15 days before the mailing of a notice of an offer to repurchase or redeem Securities or 15 days before an Interest Payment Date (whether or not an Interest Payment Date or other date determined for the payment of interest), and ending on such mailing date or Interest Payment Date, as the case may be.

(iv) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the 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 on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(v) All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

SECTION 3.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed.

If less than all of a series of Securities is to be redeemed at any time, selection of Securities of such series for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Securities to be redeemed are listed or, if such Securities are not so listed, on a pro rata basis; provided that no Securities with a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. For all purposes of this Indenture unless the context otherwise requires, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities of a series called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities of such series called for redemption.

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

The Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

If any notice of redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent, any such redemption may be rescinded in whole and not in part at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date if the Issuer delivers an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee describing the failure of the condition in reasonable detail and rescinding the redemption. The Trustee shall promptly provide a copy of such Officer’s Certificate to the Holders in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given.

The Issuer’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

SECTION 3.05. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once the notice of redemption described in Section 3.04 is sent and subject to the proviso to this sentence, Securities of the applicable series called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the redemption price, including any premium, plus interest accrued to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that any redemption and notice thereof pursuant to this Indenture may, in the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent described in such notice, including, but not limited to, the completion of any related transaction, and in which case if and/or to the extent such condition(s) precedent is/are not satisfied the Issuer shall have no obligation to redeem Securities on such Redemption Date. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price, including any premium, plus interest accrued to the Redemption Date; provided that if the Redemption Date is after a regular record date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date, the accrued interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Securities registered on the relevant record date; and provided, further, that if a Redemption Date is a Legal Holiday, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the period from such Redemption Date to such succeeding Business Day.

On and after any Redemption Date, if money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, including premium, if any, and accrued interest on all Securities of a series called for redemption shall have been made available in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph, the Securities of such series called for redemption will cease to accrue interest and the only right of the Holders of the Securities of such series will be to receive payment of the redemption price of and, subject to the second proviso in Section 3.05, accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of such series to the Redemption Date. If any Security surrendered for redemption shall not be so paid, interest will be paid, from the Redemption Date until such redemption payment is made, on the unpaid principal of the Security and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate and in the manner provided in the applicable Securities.

Upon surrender of a Security of a series that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall execute and, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer in the form of an Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder thereof a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security of such series surrendered.

(9) any other Event of Default established pursuant to Section 2.03 for the Securities of such series.

SECTION 6.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission.

If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to a series of Securities, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of any series of Securities then outstanding under this Indenture may declare all Securities of such series to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Issuer and the Trustee, in the case of notice by Holders of the Securities of such series, specifying the respective Event of Default and that it is a “notice of acceleration” and the same shall become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) occurs with respect to the Issuer, all outstanding Securities shall become due and payable without further action or notice. The Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Securities except as provided in this Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after such acceleration but before a judgment or decree based on such acceleration is obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities of such series may rescind and annul such acceleration if:

(1) all Events of Default with respect to such series of Securities, other than nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration, have been cured or waived;

(2) to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid;

(3) the Issuer has paid the Trustee its compensation and reimbursed the Trustee for its expenses, disbursements, indemnities and advances (including attorneys’ fees); and

(4) in the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default of the type described in Section 6.01(7), the Trustee shall have received an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that such Event of Default has been cured or waived.

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

SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on the applicable series of Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the series of Securities or this Indenture and may take any necessary action requested by the Holders of a majority of the principal amount outstanding of the Securities of such series to settle, compromise, adjust or otherwise conclude any proceedings to which it is a party.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the applicable series of Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative. Any costs associated with actions taken by the Trustee under this Section 6.03 shall be reimbursed to the Trustee by the Issuer and the Guarantors.

SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Existing Defaults and Events of Default.

(a) Subject to Sections 2.11, 6.02, 6.08 and 8.02, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of a series of Securities then outstanding shall have the right to waive past Defaults under this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities except a Default in the payment of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on any Securities as specified in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 6.01 or in respect of a covenant or a provision which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of all Holders as provided for in Section 8.02. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of Holders of such series of Securities have consented to such waiver and attaching copies of such consents. In case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Securities of such series, respectively. This Section 6.04(a) shall be in lieu of TIA § 316(a)(1)(B), and TIA § 316(a)(1)(B) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture and the Securities, as permitted by the TIA.

(b) 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 Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority.

Subject to Sections 2.10 and 7.01, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of a series have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee by this Indenture with respect to such series. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder not taking part in such direction, and the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer, determine that the proceedings so directed may involve it in personal liability; provided that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. In the event the Trustee takes any action or follows any direction pursuant to this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it against any cost, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and

all attorneys’ fees incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default) that might be caused by taking such action or following such direction. This Section 6.05 shall be in lieu of TIA § 316(a)(1)(A), and TIA § 316(a)(1)(A) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture and the Securities, as permitted by the TIA.

SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits.

Subject to Section 6.08, a Holder of any Security of any series may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities of such series unless:

(1) the Holder has given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series;

(2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liability or expense;

(4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity against any cost, liability or expense that might be caused by complying with such request; and

(5) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such series do not give the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with the request.

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

SECTION 6.07. No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders.

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or of any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Securities, this Indenture, the Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Securities by accepting a Securities waives and releases all such liability. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

SECTION 6.08. Rights of Holders To Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security to receive payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on such Security on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment, on or after such respective due dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder.

SECTION 6.09. Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or any Guarantor (or any other obligor on the Securities) for the whole amount of unpaid principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate set forth in the applicable Securities, and such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel (including attorneys’ fees).

SECTION 6.10. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same after deduction of its charges and expenses to the extent that any such charges and expenses are not paid out of the estate in any such proceedings and any custodian 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 to 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 7.07.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan or 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 proceedings.

SECTION 6.11. Priorities.

If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article Six, and after an Event of Default any money or other property distributable in respect of the Issuer’s or Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture, such money or property shall be paid out or distributed in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;

SECOND: to the Paying Agent and any predecessor Paying Agent (other than the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries) for amounts due under Section 7.07;

THIRD: to Holders of the applicable series of Securities for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities of such series for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities of such series; and

FOURTH: to the Issuer or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amount from any Guarantor, to such Guarantor.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of the applicable series of such Securities pursuant to this Section 6.11.

SECTION 6.12. Undertaking for Costs.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and all costs incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and all such fees and expenses incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.12 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.08 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities of a series then outstanding.

ARTICLE SEVEN

TRUSTEE

SECTION 7.01. Duties of Trustee.

(a) If a Default or Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person under the circumstances would exercise or use under the same circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

Except for an Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.01(1) or 6.01(2) (upon the occurrence of which the Trustee if then acting as Paying Agent will be deemed to have knowledge thereof), the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer or by the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of the applicable series by written notice of such event sent to the Trustee in accordance with Section 11.02 at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities of such series and this Indenture.

(b) Except during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of:

(1) the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(2) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may require and, in the absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely upon an Officer’s Certificate, subject to the requirement in the preceding sentence, if applicable.

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

(1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of Section 7.01(b);

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

(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it from a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities outstanding pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, Section 7.01(a), (b), (c) and (e) hereof shall govern every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee.

(e) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction (including, but in no way limited to, the fees and disbursements of agents and attorneys). The Trustee’s fees, expenses and indemnities (including, but in no way limited to, the fees and disbursements of agents and attorneys) are included in the amounts guaranteed by the Guarantees.

(f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer or any Guarantor. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by the law.

(g) 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 rights, powers or duties. The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers or duties hereunder.

SECTION 7.02. Rights of Trustee.

Subject to Section 7.01:

(1) the Trustee may conclusively rely on any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document;

(2) before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require and shall be entitled to receive an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, or both, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 11.05.

(5) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel;

(6) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be compensated, reimbursed and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent (including but not limited to the Registrar and the Paying Agent), custodian and other person employed to act hereunder;

(7) the right of the Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such act;

(8) the Trustee may from time to time request that the Issuer deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any persons authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any Person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded;

(9) 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;

(10) the Trustee will 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, or inquire as to the performance by the Issuer or the Guarantors of any of their covenants in this Indenture but may make its own investigation or inquiry without incurring liability;

(11) the Trustee may retain professional advisers, at the reasonable expense of the Issuer, to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture. The Trustee may consult with such professional advisors or with counsel, and the advice or opinion of such professional advisors or counsel with respect to legal or other matters within their professional competence relating to this Indenture and the Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by them hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice and opinion of such professional advisor or counsel;

(12) the Trustee is not required to give any bond or surety with respect to the performance or its duties or the exercise of its powers under this Indenture; and

SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may make loans to, accept deposits from, perform services for or otherwise deal with either the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any Affiliates thereof, with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall also be subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

SECTION 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities or any Guarantee, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s use of the proceeds from the sale of Securities, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent (other than itself as Paying Agent) or any money paid to the Issuer or any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and it shall not be responsible for any statement in the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any statement in any document utilized by the Issuer in connection with the sale of the Securities, and shall not be responsible for any rating on the Securities or any action or omission of any Rating Agency.

SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing (which shall not be cured or waived) and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee (pursuant to Section 7.01(a) hereof), the Trustee shall give to each Holder of the applicable series of Securities a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs in the manner and to the extent provided in the TIA and otherwise as provided in this Indenture. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of a series (including payments pursuant to a redemption or repurchase of the Securities of such series pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture) or relating to Article Five of this Indenture, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the Board of Directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders of such series.

SECTION 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders.

If required by TIA § 313(a), within 60 days after March 1 of any year, commencing on the March 1 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such date that complies with TIA § 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c) and TIA § 313(d).

Reports pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall be transmitted by mail:

(1) to all Holders of Securities, as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on the Registrar’s books; and

(2) to such Holders of Securities as have, within the two years preceding such transmission, filed their names and addresses with the Trustee for that purpose.

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the Commission and each stock exchange on which the applicable series of Securities are listed. The

Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee, in writing, when the Securities of such series are listed on any stock exchange or delisted therefrom.

SECTION 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity.

The Issuer and the Guarantors shall pay to the Trustee and the Agents from time to time compensation as agreed upon for its services hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust). The Issuer and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all disbursements, expenses and advances (including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and all attorneys’ fees incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default) incurred or made by it in connection with the Trustee’s duties under this Indenture, including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and external counsel incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and all compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and external counsel incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default.

In the event of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default or the Trustee considering it expedient or necessary or being requested by the Issuer to undertake duties which the Trustee and the Issuer agree to be of an exceptional nature or agree to otherwise be outside the scope of the normal duties of the Trustee under this Indenture, the Issuer shall pay on demand to the Trustee such additional remuneration as shall be agreed between them. For the avoidance of doubt, any duties in connection with investments, the granting of consents or waivers, concurring in modifications, substitution of the Issuer or enforcement, or during the period post such enforcement, shall be deemed to be of an exceptional nature.

In the event of the Trustee and the Issuer failing to agree:

(a) (in a case to which the first paragraph of this Section 7.07 applies) upon the amount of the remuneration; or

(b) (in a case to which the second paragraph of this Section 7.07 applies) upon whether such duties shall be of an exceptional nature or otherwise outside the scope of the normal duties of the Trustee under these presents, or upon such additional remuneration, such matters shall be determined by an independent financial institution or person with experience of the capital markets and of working with trustees (acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator) selected by the Trustee and approved by the Issuer and the determination of any such independent financial institution or person with experience of the capital markets and of working with trustees shall be final and binding upon the Trustee and the Issuer.

The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify each of the Trustee, the Agents and their respective agents, employees, stockholders, directors and officers and any predecessor Trustee for, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense, including without limitation taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred prior to the

occurrence of an Event of Default and all attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by each of them in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or the performance of its duties under this Indenture or the exercise of its rights and powers under the Securities and the Guarantees, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this Section 7.07), the Securities and the Guarantees or otherwise arising under this Indenture and including the costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and all attorneys’ fees incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default) of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer, any Guarantor or otherwise) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its rights, powers or duties hereunder (including, without limitation, settlement costs). The Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Guarantors in writing promptly of any third-party claim of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge asserted against the Trustee for which it may seek indemnity (each, a “Third-Party Claim”); provided that the failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the Guarantors shall not relieve the Issuer and Guarantors of their obligations hereunder except to the extent the Issuer and the Guarantors are actually prejudiced thereby. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement or provide any indemnification for any other Losses associated therewith to the extent such settlement is made in connection with any Third-Party Claim without its consent, which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion. The Trustee shall have the right to its own counsel and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and all attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default of such counsel in connection with any Third-Party Claim to the extent the Trustee reasonably determines that a conflict of interest exists or is required in connection with the performance of its duties under this Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and the Guarantors need not reimburse the Trustee for any expense or indemnify it against any loss or liability to have been incurred by the Trustee through its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

To secure the payment obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee and the Agents shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee except for such money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities. Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and the Agents and each predecessor Trustee and predecessor Agent and to pay or reimburse the Trustee and the Agents and each predecessor Trustee and predecessor Agent for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be joint and several liabilities of the Issuer and each of the Guarantors and shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Agents and the satisfaction, discharge or other termination of this Indenture, including any termination or rejection hereof under any Bankruptcy Law.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Bankruptcy Law.

For purposes of this Section 7.07, the term “Trustee” shall include any trustee appointed pursuant to this Article Seven, provided, however, that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee hereunder. The provisions of this Section 7.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any Person other than the Trustee acting as the Paying Agent, and Registrar, and any other Agent under this Indenture.

SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee.

The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer and the Guarantors in writing and without bearing any costs incurred with respect to such resignation. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may remove the Trustee by notifying the Issuer and the removed Trustee in writing and may appoint a successor Trustee with the Issuer’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Issuer may remove the Trustee at its election if:

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

(2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

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

(4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

If a successor Xxxxxxx does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may petition at the expense of the Issuer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 with respect to any series of Securities, Holders holding at least 10% in principal amount of the Securities of any series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the applicable series of Securities.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Immediately following such delivery, the retiring Trustee shall, subject to its rights under Section 7.07, transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and

the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.09. Successor Trustee by Consolidation, Merger, etc.

If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust assets to, another corporation, subject to Section 7.10, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee; provided that such entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article Seven.

SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification.

This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5) in every respect. The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 as set forth in the most recent applicable published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met.

SECTION 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer.

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

SECTION 7.12. Paying Agents.

The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent (other than the initial Paying Agent appointed hereunder) to execute and deliver to it and the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.12:

(A) that it will hold all sums held by it as agent for the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Issuer or by any obligor on the Securities) in trust for the benefit of Holders of the Securities or the Trustee;

(B) that it will at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon written request from the Trustee, deliver to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by it together with a full accounting thereof; and

(C) that it will give the Trustee written notice within three Business Days of any failure of the Issuer (or by any obligor on the Securities) in the payment of any installment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities when the same shall be due and payable.

The Paying Agent and the Issuer undertake to respect and protect the confidentiality of all information acquired as a result of or pursuant to this Indenture and will not, without the other party’s written consent, disclose any such confidential information to a third party, unless it is required to do so by applicable law or regulation or is specifically authorized to do so under this Indenture, especially where the provision of such information is the object or part of the services to be provided by the Paying Agent. The Paying Agent will only ask for the information needed to fulfill its obligations in providing the services required of such Paying Agent under this Indenture. The Issuer may, at its request, access the data relating to it and will be entitled to have it amended. The data will be kept for the period which the Paying Agent is required to keep it by law. The Issuer expressly authorizes the transfer of such data to third parties or to the head office of the Paying Agent if such transmission is required to allow the Paying Agent to provide its services to Issuer, provided, however, that such third parties must be subject to obligations substantially similar to those contained in this Indenture regarding maintenance of confidentiality of such data. The Paying Agent shall be responsible for disclosure of such confidential information by any such third party in violation of those obligations.

SECTION 7.13. Agents.

The rights, powers, duties and obligations and actions of each Agent under this Indenture are several and not (i) joint or (ii) joint and several.

Any Agent, including the Paying Agent hereunder, may resign and be discharged from its duties under this Indenture at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice of such resignation to the Trustee and the Issuer. The Trustee and the Issuer may remove any Agent at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to such Agent; provided, however, that no prior notice shall be required for any removal of any Agent for good cause. Upon such notice, a successor Agent shall be appointed by the Issuer, who shall provide written notice of such to the Trustee. Such successor Agent shall become the Agent hereunder upon the resignation or removal date specified in such notice. If the Issuer is unable to replace the resigning Agent within 30 days after such notice (or, immediately upon removal in connection with any removal of an Agent for good cause), the Agent shall deliver any funds then held hereunder in its possession to the Trustee or may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Agent or for other appropriate relief. The costs and expenses (including its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and all attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred following the occurrence of an Event of Default) incurred by the Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by the Issuer. Upon receipt of the identity of the successor Agent, the Agent shall deliver any funds then held hereunder to the successor Agent, less the Agent’s fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owed to the Agent. Upon its resignation and delivery of any funds, the Agent shall be discharged of and from any and all further obligations arising in connection with this Indenture, but shall continue to enjoy the benefit of Section 7.07. The Issuer and the Agents acknowledge and agree that in the event of a Default or Event of Default, the Trustee may, by notice in writing to the Issuer and the Agents, require that the Agents act as agents of, and take instructions exclusively

from, the Trustee. Until they have received such written notice from the Trustee, the Agents shall act solely as agents of the Issuer.

No Agent shall be liable for interest on any money received by it. Moneys held by Agents need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

Notwithstanding Section 8.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may modify and amend or supplement this Indenture, any series of Securities or the Guarantees without the consent of any Holder for any of the following purposes:

(1) to evidence the succession pursuant to this Indenture of another Person to the Issuer or a Guarantor and the assumption by that Person of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as applicable, in this Indenture and in the Securities, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

(2) to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer, to add further covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions for the protection of the Holders, and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any of such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions a Default or an Event of Default permitting the enforcement of all or any of the remedies provided in this Indenture;

(3) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained in this Indenture, or any supplemental indenture, or in any Security that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained in this Indenture, or any supplemental indenture, or in any Security;

(11) to conform this Indenture or the Securities of any series to any provision of the “Description of the Notes” (or comparable) section of any document utilized by the Issuer in connection with the sale of the Securities to the extent that such provision in such “Description of the Notes” (or comparable) section of such document utilized by the Issuer in connection with the sale of the Securities was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture or the Securities of such series, which intent may be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to that effect.

After an amendment under this Section 8.01 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders, by first-class mail or electronically if held by The Depository Trust Company, to the address of such Holders appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depository, a notice briefly describing the amendment. However, the Issuer’s failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect in such notice, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment.

SECTION 8.02. With Consent of Holders.

(a) Except to the extent provided in Section 8.01 and Section 8.2(b), with respect to each series of Securities, (a) this Indenture, (b) such series of Securities or (c) any Guarantee issued under this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities, in each case, may be amended only with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the respective series of Securities then outstanding and issued under this Indenture voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, tender offer or exchange offer for such series of Securities). In addition, with respect to each series of Securities, any existing Default or compliance with (x) any provision of this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities, (y) such series of Securities, or (z) any Guarantee issued under this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities, in each case, may be waived only with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the respective series of Securities then outstanding and issued under this Indenture voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, tender offer or exchange offer for such series of Securities).

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.02(a), without the consent of each Holder of the respective series of Securities then outstanding and issued under this Indenture affected thereby voting as a single class with respect to such series of Securities (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, tender offer or exchange offer for

Securities), an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any Security held by a non-consenting Holder):

(1) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, modification, supplement or waiver to this Indenture or any Security;

(2) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Security;

(3) reduce the principal of or extend the stated maturity of any Security;

(4) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Security or change the time at which any Security may or shall be redeemed in accordance with this Indenture;

(5) make any Security payable in a currency other than that stated in such Security;

(6) release any security that may have been granted in respect of the Securities following the initial issuance of the Securities in compliance with the terms of this Indenture;

(7) other than in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, eliminate any existing Guarantee;

(8) impair the right to receive, and to institute suit for the enforcement of, any payment with respect to any Security; or

(9) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to the rights of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities to direct the Trustee in the exercise of remedies or to waive defaults or in the provisions of this Indenture relating to modification of this Indenture with the consent of the Holders of the Securities.

(c) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

(d) After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 8.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders of the applicable series of Securities a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 8.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

SECTION 8.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents.

(a) After an amendment, supplement, waiver or other action becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security is a continuing consent conclusive and binding upon such Holder and every subsequent Holder of the same Security or portion thereof, and of any Security issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in place thereof, even if notation of the consent is not made on any such Security.

(b) The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been obtained.

(c) After an amendment, supplement, waiver or other action under Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (1) through (9) of Section 8.02(b). In that case the amendment, supplement, waiver or other action shall bind each Holder of the applicable series of such Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security.

SECTION 8.05. Notation on or Exchange of Securities.

If an amendment, supplement, or waiver changes the terms of a Security of any series, the Trustee (in accordance with the specific written direction of the Issuer) shall request the Holder of the series of such Security (in accordance with the specific written direction of the Issuer) to deliver it to the Trustee. In such case, the Trustee shall place an appropriate notation on the Security about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Security shall issue, the Guarantors shall endorse and, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer in the form of an Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Security shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 8.06. Trustee To Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article Eight if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not affect the rights, duties,

liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee, the Trustee may in its absolute discretion, but need not, sign such amendment, supplement or waiver. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in signing or refusing to sign an amendment, supplement or waiver the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Section 7.01, shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating, in addition to the matters required by Section 11.05, that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and the Guarantors, enforceable against the Issuer and the Guarantors in accordance with its terms (subject to customary exceptions).

DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE

SECTION 9.01. Discharge of Indenture.

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to a series of Securities and Guarantees, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, will execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities and the associated Guarantees when all amounts due to the Trustee shall have been paid and either:

(2) (a) all Securities of such series outstanding under this Indenture (I) have become due and payable, whether at maturity or as a result of the sending of a notice of redemption, or (II) will become due and payable within one year, or are to be called for redemption within one year, under arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer or any Guarantor irrevocably deposits with the Paying Agent such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such series outstanding under this Indenture on the maturity date or on the applicable optional redemption date, as the case may be; (b) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound; (c) the Issuer or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by the Issuer or any Guarantor under this Indenture with

respect to such series of Securities; and (d) the Issuer have delivered (I) irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Securities of such series at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be, and (II) an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with and that such satisfaction and discharge does not result in a default under any agreement or instrument then known to such counsel which binds or affects the Issuer.

The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Issuer in Article Two and in Sections 4.01, 4.02, 7.07, 9.05 and 9.06 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.

SECTION 9.02. Legal Defeasance.

The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have all of its obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to a series of Securities outstanding on a date the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the outstanding Securities of the applicable series and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such series of Securities and this Indenture insofar as such series of Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall, subject to Section 9.06, execute instruments in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(1) the rights of the Holders of a series of Securities outstanding under this Indenture to receive solely from the trust described in Section 9.04 and as more fully set forth in Section 9.04, payments in respect of the principal amount of, premium, if any, and interest on such series of Securities when such payments are due,

(2) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Article Two and Sections 4.02, 4.03 and 4.05,

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties, and immunities of the Trustee hereunder (including claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07) and the Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith, and

(4) this Article Nine.

Concurrently with any Legal Defeasance, the Issuer may, at its further option, cause to be terminated, as of the date on which such Legal Defeasance occurs, all of the obligations under any or all of the Guarantees with respect to such series of Securities, if any,

then existing and obtain the release of the Guarantees of any or all Guarantors with respect to such series of Securities. In order to exercise such option regarding a Guarantee, the Issuer shall provide the Trustee with written notice of its desire to terminate such Guarantee prior to the delivery of the Opinions of Counsel referred to in Section 9.04.

Subject to compliance with this Article Nine, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 9.02 with respect to the Securities of a series notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 9.03 below with respect to the Securities of such series.

SECTION 9.03. Covenant Defeasance.

The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have its obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under Sections 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, and 5.01(a) released with respect to the outstanding Securities of a series on a date the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities of such series, the Issuer may fail 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 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise of the option in this Section 9.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.04, Sections 6.01(3), (4), (5) and (6) shall not constitute Events of Default with respect to such series of Securities.

Notwithstanding any discharge or release of any obligations under this Indenture pursuant to Section 9.02 or this Section 9.03, the Issuer’s obligations in Article Two and Sections 7.07, 9.05, 9.06, 9.07 and 9.08 shall survive until such time as the Securities of such series have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 9.05, 9.07 and 9.08 shall survive.

SECTION 9.04. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 9.02 or Section 9.03 to such series of Securities outstanding:

and the Issuer must specify whether such Securities are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States (upon which the Trustee shall have no liability in relying) confirming that (a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the applicable Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable United States federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of such series of Securities outstanding under this Indenture will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to United States 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;

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States (upon which the Trustee shall have no liability in relying) confirming that the beneficial owners of such series of Securities outstanding under this Indenture will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to United States 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;

(4) 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) or insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit;

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will 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 Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;

(6) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate (upon which the Trustee shall have no liability in relying) stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of Securities of such series issued under this Indenture over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Issuer or others; and

(7) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel upon which the Trustee shall have the right to rely, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

All money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or such entity appointed or designated (as Agent) by the Trustee for this purpose pursuant to Section 9.04 in respect of the outstanding Securities of a series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agents, to the Holders of the Securities of such series, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Issuer and the Guarantors shall (on a joint and several basis) pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 9.04 or the principal, premium, if any, 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 of the applicable series.

Anything in this Article Nine to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon a request of the Issuer any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 9.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

SECTION 9.06. Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 9.01, 9.02 or 9.03 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or Governmental Authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and each Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, the applicable series of the Securities and the associated Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article Nine until such time as the Trustee or such Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligation in accordance with Section 9.01; provided that if the Issuer or the Guarantors have made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or accrued interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuer or the Guarantors, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent.

SECTION 9.07. Moneys Held by Paying Agent.

In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, all moneys and U.S. Government Obligations then held by any Paying Agent under the provisions of this Indenture shall, upon written demand of the Issuer, be paid or delivered to the Trustee, or if sufficient moneys and U.S. Government Obligations have been deposited pursuant to Section

9.04, to the Issuer upon a request of the Issuer (or, if such moneys and U.S. Government Obligations had been deposited by the Guarantors, to such Guarantors), and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys.

SECTION 9.08. Moneys Held by Trustee.

Any moneys and U.S. Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent or then held by the Issuer or the Guarantors in trust for the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Security that are not applied but remain unclaimed by the Holder of such Security for two years after the date upon which the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on such Security shall have respectively become due and payable shall be repaid or returned to the Issuer (or, if appropriate, the Guarantors) upon a request of the Issuer, or if such moneys and U.S. Government Obligations are then held by the Issuer or the Guarantors in trust, such moneys and European Obligations shall be released from such trust; and the Holder of such Security entitled to receive such payment shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer and the Guarantors for the payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust moneys and U.S. Government Obligations shall thereupon cease; provided that the Trustee or any such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Issuer and the Guarantors, either mail to each Holder affected, at the address shown in the register of the Securities of the applicable series maintained by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.07, or cause to be published once a week for two successive weeks, in one newspaper published in the English language, customarily published each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, the State of New York, a notice that such moneys and/or U.S. Government Obligations remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such mailing or publication, any unclaimed balance of such moneys and/or U.S Government Obligations then remaining will be repaid or returned to the Issuer. After payment or return to the Issuer or the Guarantors or the release of any moneys and U.S. Government Obligations held in trust by the Issuer or any Guarantors, as the case may be, Holders entitled thereto must look only to the Issuer and the Guarantors for payment as general creditors unless applicable abandoned property law designates another Person.

The Guarantors, by execution of this Indenture, jointly and severally, guarantee to each Holder and to the Trustee (i) the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each Security, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the due and punctual payment of interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Securities, to the extent lawful, and the due and punctual payment of all other obligations and due and punctual performance of all obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee all in accordance with the terms of such Security and this Indenture and (ii) in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or

any of such other obligations, that the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Each Guarantor, by execution of this Indenture, agrees that, subject only to the applicable provisions, if any, of Section 10.06, its obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of any such Security or this Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of any such Security or this Indenture, any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Issuer with respect thereto by the Holder of such Security, or any other circumstances which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or such Guarantor. Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection).

Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand for payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest or notice with respect to any such Security or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged as to any such Security except by payment in full of the principal thereof and interest thereon. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Six, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee.

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 Trustee or any Holder under the Guarantees.

SECTION 10.02. Execution and Delivery.

To further evidence the Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer thereof.

Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall be in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Guarantee.

If an Officer of a Guarantor whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security or at any time thereafter, such Guarantor’s Guarantee of such Security shall be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of any Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor.

SECTION 10.03. Release of Guarantors.

A Guarantor will be released and relieved from all its obligations under a Guarantee, without any action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, upon such Guarantor ceasing to guarantee or to be an obligor with respect to the Senior Unsecured Credit Agreement, the CAD Note, and any other Credit Facility Debt or Capital Markets Debt. In addition, a Guarantor will be released and relieved from all its obligations under a Guarantee in the following circumstances, each of which is permitted by this Indenture:

(1) upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of a majority of the total Voting Stock of such Guarantor (other than to the Issuer or any of its Affiliates); or

(2) upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the Property of such Guarantor (other than to any of the Issuer’s Affiliates or another Guarantor);

provided, however, that, in each case, after giving effect to such transaction, such Guarantor is no longer liable for any Guarantee or other obligations in respect of any of the Issuer’s or its Subsidiaries’ Credit Facility Debt or Capital Markets Debt.

The Guarantee of a Guarantor also will be released upon legal defeasance, covenant defeasance or discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article Nine.

If the Guarantee of any Guarantor is deemed to be released or is automatically released, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating the identity of the released Guarantor, the basis for release in reasonable detail, and that such release complies with this Indenture. At the request of the Issuer, and upon delivery to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that a Guarantor has been released and that execution by the Trustee of an appropriate instrument evidencing the release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee complies with this Indenture, the Trustee shall, at the expense of the Issuer, execute any documents reasonably requested by either the Issuer or a Guarantor in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee endorsed on the Securities and under this Article Ten (it being understood that the failure to obtain any such instrument shall not impair any automatic release pursuant to this Section 10.03).

SECTION 10.04. Waiver of Subrogation.

Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against the Issuer that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under its Guarantee and this Indenture, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Holder of Securities

against the Issuer, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Issuer, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or Security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Securities shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall have been deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Holders of the Securities, and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders to be credited and applied upon the Securities, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the waiver set forth in this Section 10.04 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

SECTION 10.05. Notice to Trustee.

The Issuer or any Guarantor shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact known to such Issuer or any such Guarantor which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office in respect of the Guarantees. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article Ten or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Guarantees, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Issuer no later than three Business Days prior to such payment; and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.05, and subject to the provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice referred to in this Section 10.05 at least three Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any such payment may become payable for any purpose under this Indenture (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose for which such money was received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it less than three Business Days prior to such date.

SECTION 10.06. Limitation on Liability of Guarantors.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance hereof, each Holder and the Trustee, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of a Guarantor does not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar U.S. Federal or state or other applicable law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Holder and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of a Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor result in the obligations of such Guarantor not constituting such a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

[_____________________________]

The Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, or the Registrar by written notice to the others may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

All notices and communications (other than those sent to Holders) shall be deemed to have been duly given at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; five (5) calendar days after mailing if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid (except that a notice of change of address shall not be deemed to have been given until actually received by the addressee); when answered back, if telecopied; and the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery.

The Trustee shall accept and act upon instructions, directions, reports, notices and other communications or information pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured electronic transmissions (including email and .pdf attachments); provided that (i) the Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to verify or confirm that the Person sending instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information by electronic transmission is, in fact, a Person authorized to give such instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information on behalf of the party purporting to send such electronic transmission; and the Trustee shall not have any liability for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or sustained by any party as a result of such reliance upon or compliance with such instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information and (ii) each other party agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of electronic methods to submit instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information to the Trustee, including the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, notices, reports or other communications or information, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

Any notice or communication to a Holder shall be mailed by first class mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, or by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery to its address shown on the register kept by the Registrar. Any notice or communication shall also be so mailed to any Person described in TIA § 313(c), to the extent required by the TIA. Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture or any Security provides for notice of any event (including any notice of redemption or repurchase) to a Holder of a Global Security (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depository (or its designee) pursuant to the standing instructions from the Depository or its designee, including by electronic mail in accordance with applicable Depository procedures.

If a notice or communication to a Holder is mailed in the manner provided above, it shall be deemed duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impossible to mail any notice as required by this Indenture, then such method of notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient mailing of such notice.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any notice to the Trustee shall be deemed given when actually received.

SECTION 11.02. Communications by Holders with Other Holders.

Within 5 Business Days after the receipt by the Trustee of written notice by any three or more Holders stating that such Holders desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities, and such notice is accompanied by (i) a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such Holders propose to transmit, and (ii) reasonable proof that each such Holder has owned a Security for a

period of at least six months preceding the date of such notice, the Trustee shall, at its election, either:

(A) afford to such Holders access to all information so furnished to or received by the Trustee; or

(B) inform such Holders as to the approximate number of other Holders of Securities according to the most recent information so furnished to or received by the Trustee, and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in the notice.

If the Trustee elects not to afford to such Holders access to such information, the Trustee will, upon the written request of such Holders, mail to all such Holders copies of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such notice, with reasonable promptness after receipt by the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of such mailing, unless within five days after such receipt, the Trustee shall mail to such Holder a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the Holders or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion.

The disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.02, regardless of the source from which such information was derived, shall not be deemed to be a violation of any existing law, nor shall the Trustee, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Registrar, and Paying Agent or any other Agent hereunder be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under this Section 11.02.

SECTION 11.03. Other Communications by Holders with Other Holders.

Holders may communicate pursuant to TIA § 312(b) with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Securities. The Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, each Agent and anyone else shall have the protection of TIA § 312(c)

SECTION 11.12. Table of Contents, Headings, etc.

The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

SECTION 11.13. Separability.
