5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE OBLIGORS.

The Company as to itself and the Guarantor as to itself and as to its Subsidiaries represents and warrants to each Purchaser that:

5.1. Organization; Power and Authority.

Each Obligor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and, where legally applicable, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and, where legally applicable, is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Obligor has the corporate power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Notes (in the case of the Company) and this Agreement and the Guarantees (in the case of the Guarantor), and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof.

5.2. Authorization, etc.

This Agreement and the Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, and this Agreement and the Guarantees have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Guarantor, and this Agreement constitutes and, upon execution and delivery thereof, each Guarantee will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except, in each case, as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

5.3. Disclosure.

The Obligors, through their agents, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and X.X. Xxxxxx Securities Inc., have delivered to each Purchaser a copy of a Private Placement Memorandum, dated October 2009 (the “Memorandum”), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby.  The Memorandum fairly describes, in all Material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries.  This Agreement, the Memorandum and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Obligors in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in Schedule 5.3, and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 (this Agreement, the Memorandum and such documents, certificates or other writings and financial statements delivered to each Purchaser being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligors do not make any representations or warranties with respect to any projections or forward looking

6

statements contained in any of the Disclosure Documents, other than such projections and forward looking statements are based on information that the Obligors believe to be accurate and such projections and forward looking statements were calculated or arrived at in a manner that the Obligors believe to be reasonable.  Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since June 30, 2009 there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of either Obligor or any Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  There is no fact known to the Obligors that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Disclosure Documents.

5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries; Affiliates.

(a)  Schedule 5.4 contains as of the First Closing Date (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists (i) of the Guarantor’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Guarantor and each other Subsidiary and whether such Subsidiary is on the First Closing Date a Subsidiary Guarantor and/or a Material Subsidiary, (ii) of the Guarantor’s Affiliates, other than Subsidiaries, and (iii) of each of the Guarantor’s directors and senior officers.

(b)  All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of each Material Subsidiary owned by the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Guarantor or another Subsidiary free and clear of any Lien (except as otherwise disclosed in Schedule 5.4 as of the First Closing Date and except for Liens incurred after the First Closing Date that are permitted pursuant to Section 10.3).

(c)  Each Material Subsidiary is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and, where legally applicable, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is, if applicable, in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Material Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact.

(d)  No Material Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to any legal restriction or any agreement (other than this Agreement, the agreements listed in Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law statutes) restricting the ability of such Material Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of profits to the Guarantor or any of its Material Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Subsidiary.

7

5.5. Financial Statements; Material Liabilities.

The Obligors have delivered to each Purchaser copies of the consolidated financial statements of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries listed in Schedule 5.5.  All of said financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes) fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule and their financial performance and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with Applicable GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments).  The Guarantor and its Subsidiaries do not have any Material liabilities that are not disclosed in such financial statements or otherwise disclosed in the Disclosure Documents.

5.6. Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, etc.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes and by the Guarantor of this Agreement and the Guarantees will not (a) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of either Obligor or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, or any other agreement or instrument to which either Obligor or any Subsidiary is bound or by which either Obligor or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, (b) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to either Obligor or any Subsidiary or (c) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to either Obligor or any Subsidiary.

5.7. Governmental Authorizations, etc.

account, records, reports and other papers, to make copies and extracts therefrom, and to discuss their respective affairs, finances and accounts with their respective officers and independent chartered accountants (and by this provision the Parent Guarantor and the Obligors authorize said accountants to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Parent Guarantor, the Obligors and their Subsidiaries), all at such times and as often as may be requested.

Any inspection made pursuant to this Section 7.3 is subject to the confidentiality requirements of Section 22.

7.4. Limitation on Disclosure Obligation.

(a) information that the Parent Guarantor or the Obligors determine after consultation with counsel qualified to advise on such matters (which may be in-house counsel) that, notwithstanding the confidentiality requirements of Section 22, the Parent Guarantor or such Obligor would be prohibited from disclosing by applicable law or regulations without making public disclosure thereof; or

(b) information that, notwithstanding the confidentiality requirements of Section 22, the Parent Guarantor or such Obligor is prohibited from disclosing by the terms of an obligation of confidentiality contained in any agreement with any non-Affiliate binding upon the Parent Guarantor or such Obligor and not entered into in contemplation of this clause (b), provided that the Parent Guarantor or the Obligors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain consent from the party in whose favor the obligation of confidentiality was made to permit the disclosure of the relevant information and provided further that the Parent Guarantor or the Obligors have received a written opinion of counsel (which may be in-house counsel) confirming that disclosure of such information without consent from such other contractual party would constitute a breach of such agreement.

Promptly after a request therefor from any holder of Notes that is an Institutional Investor, the Parent Guarantor or the Obligors will provide such holder with a written opinion of counsel (which may be in-house counsel and which may be addressed to the Parent Guarantor or the Obligors) relied upon as to any requested information that the Parent Guarantor or the relevant Obligor is prohibited from disclosing to such holder under circumstances described in this Section 7.4.

8.2. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount.

The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided in Section 8.6, prepay on any Business Day all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, plus the applicable Make-Whole Amounts determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount.

8.3. Prepayment in Connection with a Payment under Section 13.

(a)  Subject to Subsection (b) below, if, as a result of the occurrence of any Tax Event, the Company or the Guarantor (assuming that the Guarantor is required to make a payment pursuant to Section 14 or any Guarantee) on any date shall have (i) made a payment under Section 13 with respect to any Note or become obligated to make a payment under Section 13 with respect to any Note on the next date on which a payment of interest is scheduled to be made (such payment in either case being in excess of the amount that the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, would have been required to pay but for the occurrence of such Tax Event) (in either case, any such Note being herein referred to as an “Affected Note”) and (ii) furnished to each holder of any Affected Note a notice from a Responsible Officer of the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of such Tax Event and an explanation of the basis on which the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, is then so obligated to make payment under Section 13, the Company may, upon notice given as provided in Section 8.6, prepay the Affected Notes in whole (and not in part) on any Business Day at a price equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Notes, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for such prepayment, plus the applicable Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount.

(b)  Notwithstanding Subsection (a) above, no Affected Note shall be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.3 if the holder thereof, at least ten Business Days prior to the prepayment date under this Section 8.3, shall have delivered a notice to the Obligors stating that such holder waives any right to any future payment under Section 13 in respect of the specific Tax Event that shall have given rise to the Company’s prepayment right under this Section 8.3; provided that

(1)  no such waiver (x) shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any right to receive a payment in full under Section 13 in respect of any other Tax Event that shall have given rise to the Company’s prepayment right under this Section 8.3 or (y) preclude the Company from exercising any such right of prepayment in respect of such other Tax Event; and

22

(2)  if on any date the amount of any payment that a holder of a Note would be entitled to receive under Section 13 shall increase (in proportion to the total amount in respect of which the amount payable under Section 13 is determined),

(x)  the occurrence of any such increase shall be deemed to be a new Tax Event giving rise to a prepayment right under this Section 8.3, and

(y)  such holder thereafter shall be entitled to receive the full amount of any future payment provided under Section 13, notwithstanding any waiver previously delivered pursuant to this Section 8.3, unless such holder shall have delivered a notice under Section 8.3(b) in respect of any such prepayment.

In addition, no prepayment of any Note shall be permitted pursuant to Section 8.3(a) (i) if a Default or Event of Default then exists, (ii) until the Obligors shall have taken commercially reasonable steps to mitigate the requirement to make the underlying Tax payment under Section 13 or (iii) if the underlying Tax payment under Section 13 arises as a result of the failure of either Obligor to make any request specified in Section 13(a)(ii) or any other act or omission by either Obligor (other than actions required to be taken under applicable law), and any prepayment notice given pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall certify to the foregoing and describe such mitigation steps, if any.

8.4. Prepayments in Connection with a Change of Control.

If a Change of Control shall occur, the Company shall within five days thereafter give written notice thereof (a “Change of Control Prepayment Notice”) to each holder of Notes, which notice shall (i) refer specifically to this Section 8.4 and describe in reasonable detail such Change of Control and (ii) offer to prepay on a Business Day not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such Change of Control Prepayment Notice (the “Change of Control Prepayment Date”) the Notes of such holder, at 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with interest accrued thereon to the Change of Control Prepayment Date, and specify the Change of Control Response Date (as defined below).  Each holder of a Note shall notify the Obligors of such holder’s acceptance or rejection of such offer by giving written notice of such acceptance or rejection to the Obligors on a date at least ten days prior to the Change of Control Prepayment Date (such date ten days prior to the Change of Control Prepayment Date being the “Change of Control Response Date”). The Company shall prepay on the Change of Control Prepayment Date all of the Notes held by each holder that has accepted such offer in accordance with this Section 8.4 at a price in respect of each such Note held by such holder equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with interest accrued thereon to the Change of Control Prepayment Date. The failure by a holder of any Note to respond to such offer in writing on or before the Change of Control Response Date shall be deemed to be a rejection of such offer.

8.5. Prepayments in Connection with Dispositions of Assets.

If the Company is required to offer to prepay Notes in accordance with (and in the aggregate amount calculated pursuant to) Section 10.8(d), the Company will give written notice

23

thereof to the holders of all Notes then outstanding, which notice shall (i) refer specifically to this Section 8.5 and Section 10.8(d) and describe in reasonable detail the Disposition giving rise to such offer to prepay Notes, (ii) specify the principal amount of each Note held by such holder offered to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.7 and Section 10.8(d), the “Ratable Amount”), (iii) specify a Business Day for such prepayment not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such notice (the “Disposition Prepayment Date”) and specify the Disposition Response Date (as defined below) and (iv) offer to prepay on the Disposition Prepayment Date the Ratable Amount of each Note together with interest accrued thereon to the Disposition Prepayment Date (the “Prepayment Amount”).  Each holder of a Note shall notify the Company of such holder’s acceptance or rejection of such offer by giving written notice of such acceptance or rejection to the Company on a date at least ten days prior to the Disposition Prepayment Date (such date ten Business Days prior to the Disposition Prepayment Date being the “Disposition Response Date”). The Company shall prepay on the Disposition Prepayment Date the Prepayment Amount with respect to each Note held by the holders who have accepted such offer in accordance with this Section 8.5. The failure by a holder of any Note to respond to such offer in writing on or before the Disposition Response Date shall be deemed to be a rejection of such offer.  If any holder of a Note rejects or is deemed to have rejected any offer of prepayment with respect to such Note in accordance with this Section 8.5, then, for purposes of determining compliance with Section 10.8(d), the Company nevertheless shall be deemed to have made a prepayment of Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Ratable Amount with respect to such Note.

8.6. Notices, Etc.

The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under Section 8.2 or 8.3, in each case not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment.  Any such notice shall specify such date (which date shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Notes or Affected Notes, as the case may be, to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note or Affected Note (if such holder is a holder of any Affected Notes), as the case may be, held by such holder to be prepaid, and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid.  Any such notice shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated applicable Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation, and two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes or Affected Notes, as the case may be, a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.

8.7. Allocation of Partial Prepayments and Offers of Partial Prepayments.

In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2 and in the case of each offer of partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.5, the Company shall prepay (or, in the case of Section 8.5, offer to prepay) the same percentage of the unpaid principal amount of the Notes of each series, and the principal amount of the Notes of each series so to be prepaid (or, in the case of Section 8.5, offered to be prepaid) shall be allocated among all of

24

the Notes of such series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.

8.8. Maturity; Surrender, etc.

In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any.  From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue.  Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and canceled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

8.9. Purchase of Notes.

Neither Obligor will, and neither Obligor will permit any Affiliate to, purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by either Obligor or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions.  Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least 20 Business Days.  If the holders of more than 50% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least five Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer.  The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it, the Guarantor or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

8.10. Make-Whole Amount.

The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero.  For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.3 or Section 26(b) or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

25

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (x) (i) if such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.3, 1.00% or (ii) if such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or 26(b) or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, 0.50% plus (y) the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported, as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” on Bloomberg Financial Markets (or such other display as may replace Page PX1 on Bloomberg Financial Markets) for the most recently issued, actively traded, on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the remaining term of such Note as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in U.S. Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the remaining term of such Note as of such Settlement Date.  Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury xxxx quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than the remaining term of such Note and (2) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than the remaining term of such Note.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.3, 12.1 or 26(b).

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.3 or 26(b) or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

9.3. Maintenance of Properties.

The Parent Guarantor and the Obligors will, and will cause each of their Subsidiaries to, maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, provided that this Section shall not prevent the Parent Guarantor or either Obligor or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Parent Guarantor has concluded that such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)  The Parent Guarantor will at all times own, directly or indirectly, 100% of the capital stock of the Guarantor and the Company.

9.6. Ranking.

The Parent Guarantor and each Obligor will ensure that, at all times, all of its liabilities under this Agreement and the Notes (in the case of the Company) and under this Agreement and the Guarantees (in the case of the Guarantor) and under this Agreement (in the case of the Parent Guarantor) will rank in right of payment either pari passu or senior to all other unsecured, unsubordinated Indebtedness of such Obligor or the Parent Guarantor, as the case may be, except for Indebtedness which is preferred by operation of bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, administration or similar laws of general application.

9.7. Subsidiary Guarantees.

(a)  The Parent Guarantor and the Obligors will ensure that at all times each Subsidiary (other than the Company and the Guarantor) that has outstanding a Guaranty with respect to any Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor outstanding under any Credit Facility (or is otherwise a co-obligor on, or jointly liable with respect to, any such Indebtedness) is a Subsidiary Guarantor.

28

(b)  The Parent Guarantor and the Obligors will cause each Subsidiary which is or becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor to execute and deliver a Subsidiary Guarantee and to provide, together with an executed copy thereof, the following to each holder of a Note:

The failure by such Affected Noteholder to respond to such offer in writing on or before the Sanctions Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to be a rejection of such offer.  If such Affected Noteholder has accepted the Company’s prepayment offer in accordance with this Section 10.10(b), the Company shall prepay on the Sanctions Prepayment Date all of

38

the Notes held by such Affected Noteholder at a price in respect of each such Note held by such Affected Noteholder equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with interest accrued thereon to the Sanctions Prepayment Date.

(ii) The foregoing provisions of clause (i) of this Section 10.10(b) shall be in addition to any rights or remedies available to any holder of Notes that may arise under this Agreement as a result of any breach of Section 10.10(a)(ii)(x); provided, that, if the Notes shall have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1 as a result of such breach, the remedies set forth in Section 12 shall control.

(iii) Promptly, and in any event within five Business Days, after the Company’s receipt of notice from any Affected Noteholder that a Noteholder Sanctions Violation shall have occurred with respect to such Affected Noteholder, the Company shall forward a copy of such notice to each other holder of Notes.

(iv) Section 8.8 shall be deemed to apply to each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 10.10(b).

(v) Clause (b) of this Section 10.10 may be amended, and the observance of any term thereof may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Parent Guarantor, both Obligors and the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby.

42

paragraph (g) or described in clause (F) of paragraph (g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (A) of paragraph (g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable.

(b)  If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Holders may at any time at their option, by notice or notices to the Obligors, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

(c)  If any Event of Default described in paragraph (a) or (b) of Section 11 has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Obligors, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.

No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies.  No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note or Guarantee upon any holder thereof or by any Subsidiary Guarantee shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.  Without limiting the obligations of the Obligors under Section 17, the Obligors will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

13. TAX INDEMNIFICATION.

(a)  Any and all payments under this Agreement, the Notes or the Guarantees to or for the account of any holder of a Note shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Tax, except to the extent such deduction or withholding is required by law.  If any Tax is required by law to be deducted or withheld by the Company from any such payments made by the Company hereunder or under the Notes or by the Guarantor from any such payments made by the Guarantor hereunder or under the Guarantees, such Obligor will make such deductions or withholding and pay to the relevant taxing authority the full amount deducted or withheld before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon.  In the event of the imposition by or for the account of any Applicable Taxing Authority or of any Governmental Authority of any jurisdiction (other than the United States) in which either Obligor resides for tax purposes or any jurisdiction (other than the United States) from or through which such Obligor is making any payment in respect of any Note or Guarantee, as the case may be, of any Tax, other than any Excluded Tax, upon or with respect to any payments in respect of any Note or Guarantee, as the case may be, whether by withholding or otherwise, the applicable Obligor hereby agrees to pay forthwith from time to time in connection with each payment on the Notes or the Guarantees, as the case may be, to each holder of a Note such amounts as shall be required so that every payment received by such holder in respect of the Notes or Guarantees, as the case may be, and every payment received by such holder under this Agreement will not, after such withholding or deduction or other payment for or on account of such Tax and any interest or penalties relating thereto, be less than the amount due and payable to such holder in respect of such Note or Guarantee or under this Agreement before the assessment of such Tax; provided, however, that neither Obligor shall be obliged to pay such amounts to any holder of a Note in respect of Taxes to the extent such Taxes exceed the Taxes that would have been payable:

(i) had such holder not had any connection with Australia or any territory or political subdivision thereof other than the mere holding of a Note (or the

44

receipt of any payments in respect thereof) or activities incidental thereto (including enforcement thereof);

(ii) but for the delay or failure by such holder (following a written request by either Obligor) in the filing with an appropriate Governmental Authority or otherwise of forms, certificates, documents, applications or other reasonably required evidence (collectively “Forms”), that is required to be filed by such holder to avoid or reduce such Taxes and that in the case of any of the foregoing would not result in any confidential or proprietary income tax return information being revealed, either directly or indirectly, to any Person and such delay or failure could have been lawfully avoided by such holder, provided that such holder shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of this clause (ii) upon the good faith completion and submission of such Forms as may be specified in a written request of either Obligor no later than 60 days after receipt by such holder of such written request (provided, that if such Forms are Forms required pursuant to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America or any political subdivision thereof, such written request shall be accompanied by such Forms); or

(iii) had such holder not breached any representation or warranty contained in Section 6.2(a), (c) or (d).

(b)  Within 60 days after the date of any payment by either Obligor of any Tax in respect of any payment under the Notes or the Guarantees or this Section 13, such Obligor shall furnish to each holder of a Note the original tax receipt for the payment of such Tax (or if such original tax receipt is not available, a duly certified copy of the original tax receipt), together with such other documentary evidence with respect to such payments as may be reasonably requested from time to time by any holder of a Note.

(c)  If either Obligor has made a payment to or on account of any holder of a Note pursuant to clause (a) above and such holder is entitled to a refund of the Tax to which such payment is attributable from the Governmental Authority to which the payment of the Tax was made and such refund can be obtained by filing one or more Forms, then (i) such holder shall, as soon as practicable after receiving a written request therefor from either Obligor (which request shall include a copy of such Forms to be filed), use its reasonable efforts to promptly file such Forms and (ii) upon receipt of such refund, if any, promptly pay over such refund to the applicable Obligor (net of any costs incurred in complying with such request).

(d)  The obligations of the Obligors under this Section 13 shall survive the transfer or payment of any Note and the provisions of this Section 13 shall also apply to successive transferees of the Notes.

14. GUARANTEE, ETC.

14.1. Guarantee.

The Guarantor hereby guarantees to each holder of any Note at any time outstanding (a) the prompt payment in full, in Dollars, when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by

45

mandatory or optional prepayment or otherwise) of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest on the Notes (including, without limitation, any post-petition interest and interest on any overdue principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on any overdue interest and on payment of additional amounts described in Section 13) and all other amounts from time to time owing by the Company under this Agreement and the Notes (including, without limitation, costs, expenses and taxes in accordance with the terms hereof), and (b) the prompt performance and observance by the Company of all covenants, agreements and conditions on its part to be performed and observed hereunder, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such payments and other obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  The Guarantor hereby further agrees that if the Company shall default in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantor will (x) promptly pay or perform the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory or optional prepayment or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal and (y) pay to the holder of any Note such amounts, to the extent lawful, as shall be sufficient to pay the costs and expenses of collection or of otherwise enforcing any of such holder’s rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees.

All obligations of the Guarantor under Sections 14.1 and 14.2 shall survive the transfer of any Note, and any obligations of the Guarantor under Sections 14.1 and 14.2 with respect to which the underlying obligation of the Company is expressly stated to survive the payment of any Note shall also survive payment of such Note.

14.2. Obligations Unconditional.

(a) The obligations of the Guarantor under Section 14.1 constitute a present and continuing guaranty of payment and not collectibility and are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any Guaranty of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 14.2 that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall remain absolute, unconditional and irrevocable as described above:

(1) any amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement (other than Section 14.1 or 14.2) or any of the Notes or any assignment or transfer thereof, including without limitation the renewal or extension of the time of payment of any of the Notes or the granting of time in respect of such payment thereof, or of any furnishing or acceptance of security or any additional guarantee or any release of any security or guarantee so furnished or accepted for any of the Notes;

(2) any waiver, consent, extension, granting of time, forbearance, indulgence or

46

other action or inaction under or in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee, or any exercise or non-exercise of any right, remedy or power in respect hereof or thereof;

(3) any bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceedings with respect to the Company or any other Person or the properties or creditors of any of them;

(4) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default under, or any invalidity or any unenforceability of, or any misrepresentation, irregularity or other defect in, this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(5) any transfer of any assets to or from the Company, including without limitation any transfer or purported transfer to the Company from any Person, any invalidity, illegality of, or inability to enforce, any such transfer or purported transfer, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any Person, any change in the ownership of any shares of capital stock of the Company, or any change whatsoever in the objects, capital structure, constitution or business of the Company;

(6) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, on the part of the Company or any other Person to perform or comply with, or the impossibility or illegality of performance by the Company or any other Person of, any term of this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(7) any suit or other action brought by, or any judgment in favor of, any beneficiaries or creditors of, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation any suit or action in any way attacking or involving any issue, matter or thing in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(8) any lack or limitation of status or of power, incapacity or disability of the Company, and other person providing a Guaranty of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations; or

(9) any novation by the Company pursuant to Section 26; or

(10) any other thing, event, happening, matter, circumstance or condition whatsoever, not in any way limited to the foregoing (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations).

(b) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever and any requirement that any holder of a Note exhaust any right, power or remedy against the Company under this Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein (including, without limitation, marshalling of assets), or against any other Person under any other Guaranty of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

47

(c) In the event that the Guarantor shall at any time pay any amount on account of the Guaranteed Obligations or take any other action in performance of its obligations hereunder, the Guarantor shall not exercise any subrogation or other rights hereunder or under the Notes and the Guarantor hereby waives all rights it may have to exercise any such subrogation or other rights, and all other remedies that it may have against the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in respect of any payment made hereunder unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full.  Prior to the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, if any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights or other remedy, notwithstanding the waiver thereof, such amount shall be received in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Notes and shall forthwith be paid to such holders to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.  The Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Section 14 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment (including payment in full) by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of a Note, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid.

(d) If an event permitting the acceleration of the maturity of the principal amount of the Notes shall at any time have occurred and be continuing and such acceleration (and the effect thereof on the Guaranteed Obligations) shall at such time be prevented by reason of the pendency against the Company or any other Person (other than the Guarantor as to itself) of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, the Guarantor agrees that, for purposes of the guarantee in this Section 14 and the Guarantor’s obligations under this Agreement and the Guarantees, the maturity of the principal amount of the Notes shall be deemed to have been accelerated (with a corresponding effect on the Guaranteed Obligations) with the same effect as if the holders of the Notes had accelerated the same in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Guarantor shall forthwith pay such principal amount, any interest thereon, any Make-Whole Amounts and any other amounts guaranteed hereunder without further notice or demand.

(e)  The guarantee in Section 14.1 is a continuing guarantee and shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.  Each default in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall give rise to a separate claim and cause of action hereunder, and separate claims or suits may be made and brought, as the case may be, hereunder as each such default occurs.

14.3. Guarantees Endorsed on the Notes.

Each Note shall have endorsed thereon a Guarantee of the Guarantor in the form of Exhibit 2.

15. REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES.

15.1. Registration of Notes.

The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes.  The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more

48

Notes shall be registered in such register.  Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.  The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes.

15.2. Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the Company for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or his attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within 10 Business Days thereafter the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes of the same series (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note.  Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1-A, 1-B or 1-C, as applicable, and shall have the Guarantee of the Guarantor endorsed thereon.  Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.  The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes.  Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than U.S.$500,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of a series of Notes, one Note of such Series may be in a denomination of less than U.S.$500,000.  Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by the provisions contained herein expressed to be, or that otherwise are, applicable to holders of Notes and to have made the representations set forth in Sections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3.  The Company shall not be required to effect any transfer or exchange of a Note within five Business Days of any date on which a payment is scheduled to be made thereon.

15.3. Replacement of Notes.

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and

(a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least U.S.$10,000,000 in excess of the outstanding principal amount of such Note, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

49

(b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,

the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same series, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon, and having the Guarantee of the Guarantor endorsed thereon.

Subject to Section 16.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in New York, New York at the principal office of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in such jurisdiction.  The Company may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

16.2. Home Office Payment.

So long as any Purchaser or any nominee of such Purchaser shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 16.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest and all other amounts payable hereunder by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Obligors in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Obligors made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 16.1.  Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by any Purchaser or any nominee of such Purchaser, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 15.2.  The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 16.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by any Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 16.2.

18. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by each Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of any Purchaser or any other holder of a Note.  All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Parent Guarantor or either Obligor pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Parent Guarantor or such Obligor under this Agreement.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the Notes and the Guarantees embody the entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Parent Guarantor and the Obligors and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

19. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

19.1. Requirements.

This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of both Obligors and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 23 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount on, the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Sections 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 13, 14, 19, 22, 25 or 26.  For purposes of any amendment or waiver or other action taken on or after the First Closing Date but prior to the Second Closing Date pursuant to this Section 19.1, the calculation of the Required Holders shall include the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be sold as of the Second Closing Date and the holders of such Notes shall be entitled to vote such Notes as if such Notes were outstanding on such date.

19.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

(a) Solicitation.  The Obligors will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes.  The Obligors will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 19 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

19.3. Binding Effect, etc.

Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 19 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Obligors without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver.  No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon.  No course of dealing between either Obligor and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note or under any Guarantee or under any Subsidiary Guarantee shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note.  As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

19.4. Notes held by Obligors, etc.

Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Notes or in any Guarantee or Subsidiary Guarantee, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes or in any Guarantee or Subsidiary Guarantee to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by either Obligor or any Affiliate of either Obligor shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

22. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

For the purposes of this Section 22, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of either Obligor or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is

25. OBLIGATION TO MAKE PAYMENTS IN DOLLARS.

Any payment on account of an amount that is payable hereunder or under the Notes or the Guarantees in Dollars which is made to or for the account of any holder of Notes in any other currency, whether as a result of any judgment or order or the enforcement thereof or the realization of any security or the liquidation of either Obligor, shall constitute a discharge of the obligation of the Company or the Guarantor under this Agreement, the Notes or the Guarantees, as the case may be, only to the extent of the amount of Dollars which such holder could purchase in the foreign exchange markets in London, England, with the amount of such other currency in accordance with normal banking procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the London Banking Day following receipt of the payment first referred to above.  If the amount of Dollars that could be so purchased is less than the amount of Dollars originally due to such holder, the Obligors agree to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and save harmless such holder from and against all loss or damage arising out of or as a result of such deficiency.  This indemnity shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement, the Notes and the Guarantees, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by such holder from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder, under the Notes or under the Guarantees or under any judgment or order.  As used herein the term “London Banking Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a day on which commercial banks are required or authorized by law to be closed in London, England.

26. NOVATION.

(a) The Company may, upon not less than 30 days written notice to each holder of Notes, novate its rights and obligations under this Agreement and all Notes from itself to either the Guarantor or Amcor UK Finance Limited (as applicable, the “Successor”), provided that, the Guarantor or Amcor UK Finance Limited, as the case may be, shall be organized and existing under the laws of Australia, the United States of America or any State or political subdivision of either thereof (including, in the case of the United States, the District of Columbia) or the laws of England and Wales at such time.  Upon any such novation, the Successor shall assume all rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the Notes and such Successor shall become the Company under and for all purposes this Agreement and the Notes, and the Company shall be relieved and released of all such rights and obligations.  Each holder of Notes agrees to execute and deliver such documents, agreements or certificates as may reasonably be required by the Company and the Successor to effect such novation, assumption and release; provided that, as a condition precedent to any such novation:

(i) the Successor shall have delivered to each holder of a Note an irrevocable and unconditional assumption of this Agreement and the Notes reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders, and an undertaking of the Successor, on the request of any such holder, to deliver to such holder, in the manner provided in Section 15, a new Note, executed by Successor, with the Guarantee of the Guarantor affixed thereto;

57

(ii) the Guarantor shall have delivered to each holder of a Note an unconditional affirmation by (i) the Guarantor of its obligations under this Agreement and the Guarantees and (ii) each Subsidiary Guarantor of its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee;

(iii) the Guarantor and the Successor shall have delivered to each holder of a Note opinions reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders, and subject only to customary qualifications, conditions, assumptions and limitations, of independent counsel of recognized standing, relating to the matters contemplated hereby;

(iv) immediately after giving effect to such assumption, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(v) immediately after giving effect to such assumption, either

(x) no additional amount would be payable under Section 13 (assuming that the Successor then had to make a payment under the Notes) and no prepayment right shall exist under Section 8.3, or

(y) the Guarantor and the Successor shall have effectively and irrevocably waived any right to prepay the Notes under Section 8.3 that arises as a result of the Successor having the ability to make payment of any such additional amount under Section 13 in the future pursuant to any withholding tax requirement in existence at the time of such assumption in the jurisdiction of the Successor.

(b) In the event that such novation, assumption and release shall result in any tax payable by, or any tax liability of, any holder of a Note (whether local, state, federal or foreign) with respect to any Note thereof (a “Relevant Note”) that would not have arisen but for such novation, assumption or release (any such tax, the “Holder Tax Amount”), such holder shall provide written notice thereof to the Obligors prior to the date of such novation, assumption and release, with the relevant tax analysis set forth in reasonable detail.  If any such notice is received by the Obligors prior to the date of such novation, assumption and release, the Obligors at their election shall either have (i) paid or indemnified such holder for such Holder Tax Amount or (ii) provided that no Holder Tax Amount shall have become payable, prepaid the Relevant Notes of such holder in whole (and not in part) at a price equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Relevant Notes, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of prepayment and the Make-Whole Amount determined for the date of prepayment with respect to such principal amount.

(c) The Guarantor shall at all times own, directly or indirectly, 100% of the capital stock of any Successor.

(d) Neither Obligor nor any other Person shall be required to pay to any holder of a Note any form of consent or similar fee in connection with the assumption by any Successor of the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 26.

27. PARENT GUARANTEE; OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT APPLICABLE TO THE PARENT GUARANTOR.

27.1. Guarantee.

The Parent Guarantor hereby guarantees to each holder of any Note at any time outstanding (a) the prompt payment in full, in Dollars, when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory or optional prepayment or otherwise) of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount and interest on the Notes (including, without limitation, any post-petition interest and interest on any overdue principal, Make-Whole Amount and to the extent permitted by applicable law, on any overdue interest and on payment of additional amounts described in Section 13) and all other amounts from time to time owing by the Company under this Agreement and the Notes (including, without limitation, costs, expenses and taxes in accordance with the terms hereof), and (b) the prompt performance and observance by the Company and the Guarantor of all covenants, agreements and conditions on its part to be performed and observed hereunder, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such payments and other obligations being herein collectively called the “Parent Guaranteed Obligations”).  The Parent Guarantor hereby further agrees that if the Company or the Guarantor shall default in the payment or performance of any of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations, the Parent Guarantor will (x) promptly pay or perform the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory or optional prepayment or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal and (y) pay to the holder of any Note such amounts, to the extent lawful, as shall be sufficient to pay the costs and expenses of collection or of otherwise enforcing any of such holder’s rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees.

All obligations of the Parent Guarantor under Sections 27.1 and 27.2 shall survive the transfer of any Note, and any obligations of the Parent Guarantor under Sections 27.1 and 27.2 with respect to which the underlying obligation of the Company or the Guarantor is expressly stated to survive the payment of any Note shall also survive payment of such Note.

27.2. Obligations Unconditional.

(a) The obligations of the Parent Guarantor under Section 27.1 constitute a present and continuing guaranty of payment and not collectibility and are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor under this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any Guaranty of or security for any of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 27.2 that the obligations of the Parent Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Parent Guarantor hereunder which shall remain absolute, unconditional

59

and irrevocable as described above:

(1) any amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement (other than Section 27.1 or 27.2) or any of the Notes or any assignment or transfer thereof, including without limitation the renewal or extension of the time of payment of any of the Notes or the granting of time in respect of such payment thereof, or of any furnishing or acceptance of security or any additional guarantee or any release of any security or guarantee so furnished or accepted for any of the Notes;

(2) any waiver, consent, extension, granting of time, forbearance, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of this Agreement, the Notes, the Guarantees or any Subsidiary Guarantee, or any exercise or non-exercise of any right, remedy or power in respect hereof or thereof;

(3) any bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceedings with respect to the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person or the properties or creditors of any of them;

(4) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default under, or any invalidity or any unenforceability of, or any misrepresentation, irregularity or other defect in, this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(5) any transfer of any assets to or from the Company or the Guarantor, including without limitation any transfer or purported transfer to the Company or the Guarantor from any Person, any invalidity, illegality of, or inability to enforce, any such transfer or purported transfer, any consolidation or merger of the Company or the Guarantor with or into any Person, any change in the ownership of any shares of capital stock of the Company or the Guarantor, or any change whatsoever in the objects, capital structure, constitution or business of the Company or the Guarantor;

(6) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, on the part of the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person to perform or comply with, or the impossibility or illegality of performance by the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person of, any term of this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(7) any suit or other action brought by, or any judgment in favor of, any beneficiaries or creditors of, the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation any suit or action in any way attacking or involving any issue, matter or thing in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(8) any lack or limitation of status or of power, incapacity or disability of the Company, the Guarantor and any other person providing a Guaranty of, or security for, any of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations; or

(9) any novation by the Company pursuant to Section 26; or

60

(10) any other thing, event, happening, matter, circumstance or condition whatsoever, not in any way limited to the foregoing (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations).

(b) The Parent Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever and any requirement that any holder of a Note exhaust any right, power or remedy against the Company or the Guarantor under this Agreement, the Notes or the Guarantees of the Guarantor or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein (including, without limitation, marshalling of assets), or against any other Person under any other Guaranty of, or security for, any of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations.

(c) In the event that the Parent Guarantor shall at any time pay any amount on account of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations or take any other action in performance of its obligations hereunder, the Parent Guarantor shall not exercise any subrogation or other rights hereunder or under the Notes and the Parent Guarantor hereby waives all rights it may have to exercise any such subrogation or other rights, and all other remedies that it may have against the Guarantor, the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in respect of any payment made hereunder unless and until the Parent Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full.  Prior to the payment in full of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations, if any amount shall be paid to the Parent Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights or other remedy, notwithstanding the waiver thereof, such amount shall be received in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Notes and shall forthwith be paid to such holders to be credited and applied upon the Parent Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.  The Parent Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Section 27 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment (including payment in full) by or on behalf of the Guarantor, the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of a Note, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid.

(d) If an event permitting the acceleration of the maturity of the principal amount of the Notes shall at any time have occurred and be continuing and such acceleration (and the effect thereof on the Parent Guaranteed Obligations) shall at such time be prevented by reason of the pendency against the Guarantor, the Company or any other Person (other than the Parent Guarantor as to itself) of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, the Parent Guarantor agrees that, for purposes of the guarantee in this Section 27 and the Parent Guarantor’s obligations under this Agreement, the maturity of the principal amount of the Notes shall be deemed to have been accelerated (with a corresponding effect on the Guaranteed Obligations) with the same effect as if the holders of the Notes had accelerated the same in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Parent Guarantor shall forthwith pay such principal amount, any interest thereon, any Make-Whole Amounts and any other amounts guaranteed hereunder without further notice or demand.

(e) The guarantee in Section 27.1 is a continuing guarantee and shall apply to the Parent Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.  Each default in the payment or performance of any of the Parent Guaranteed Obligations shall give rise to a separate claim and cause of action hereunder, and separate claims or suits may be made and brought, as the case may be, hereunder as

61

each such default occurs.

27.3. Other Provisions of this Agreement Applicable to the Parent Guarantor.

Each reference to an Obligor or the Guarantor in Section 12.1, Section 13, Section 19, Section 25, Section 26 and Section 28.8 shall also be deemed to be a reference to, and each such Section shall also be deemed to be applicable to, the Parent Guarantor, mutatis mutandis.

27.4. Amendments.

This Section 27 may be amended, and the observance of any term thereof may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Parent Guarantor, both Obligors and the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby.

28. MISCELLANEOUS.

28.1. Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

28.2. Payments Due on Non-Business Days.

Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8 that notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as the date fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Note is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

28.3. Matters Relating to Applicable GAAP.

(a) If the Parent Guarantor and the Obligors notify the holders of Notes that, in the Parent Guarantor’s reasonable opinion, or if the Required Holders notify the Parent Guarantor and the Obligors that, in the Required Holders’ reasonable opinion, as a result of changes in Applicable GAAP after the date of this Agreement (“Subsequent Changes”), any of the covenants contained in Sections 10.3 through 10.8, inclusive,  or any of the defined terms used therein no longer apply as intended such that such covenants are materially more or less restrictive to the Parent Guarantor and the Obligors than as at the date of this Agreement, the Parent Guarantor and the Obligors and the holders of Notes shall negotiate in good faith to reset

62

or amend such covenants or defined terms so as to negate such Subsequent Changes, or to establish alternative covenants or defined terms.  Until the Parent Guarantor, the Obligors and the Required Holders so agree to reset, amend or establish alternative covenants or defined terms, the covenants contained in Sections 10.3 through 10.8, inclusive, together with the relevant defined terms, shall continue to apply and compliance therewith shall be determined assuming that the Subsequent Changes shall not have occurred (“Static GAAP”).  During any period that compliance with any covenants shall be determined pursuant to Static GAAP, the Parent Guarantor and the Obligors shall include relevant reconciliations in reasonable detail between Applicable GAAP and Static GAAP with respect to the applicable covenant compliance calculations contained in each certificate of a Senior Financial Officer delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(a) during such period.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants contained in this Agreement, any election by the Parent Guarantor or either Obligor to measure an item of financial liability using fair value (as permitted by International Accounting Standard 39 or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made.

(c) Subject to clause (d) below and notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to any treatment of any lease (or similar arrangement conveying the right to use) as a Capital Lease where such lease (or similar arrangement) would not have been required to be so treated under Applicable GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2017, as a result of the effectiveness of the United States Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 842 (or any other United States Accounting Standards Codification having a similar result or

effect) (and related interpretations) or as a result of the effectiveness of the Australian Accounting Standards Board AAS 16 (Leases) (or any other Australian Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) (and related interpretations) (the “Change in Lease Accounting Standard”).  The Parent Guarantor and the Obligors shall include relevant reconciliations in reasonable detail with respect to the Change in Lease Accounting Standard for the applicable covenant compliance calculations contained in each certificate of a Senior Financial Officer delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(a) between Applicable GAAP in effect at such time and Applicable GAAP in effect as of December 31, 2017.

(d) Notwithstanding clauses (a) or (c) above, if at any time any Principal Facility Agreement shall include a provision giving effect to or otherwise addressing the Change in Lease Accounting Standard that shall result in any lease being treated as a Capital Lease (the “Relevant Lease Treatment”), then the Company shall promptly provide notice thereof to the holders of Notes, which notice shall refer specifically to this Section 28.3(d) and set forth the relevant provision from such Principal Facility Agreement, whereupon the Relevant Lease Treatment shall apply for all purposes of this Agreement.

63

28.4. Severability.

Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

28.5. Construction.

Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant.  Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

28.6. Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.  Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

28.7. Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law

principles of the law of such State that would require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.

28.8. Consent in Contemplation of Transfer.

Any consent made pursuant to Section 19.2 by a holder of Notes that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Note to either of the Obligors, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of either of the Obligors pursuant to an offer made pursuant to clause (b) of the first sentence of Section 8.9 and has provided or has agreed to provide such written consent in connection with such transfer shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other holders of Notes that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such transferring holder.

Section 1.  Definitions.  Except as otherwise provided herein, terms defined in the Note and Guarantee Agreement are used herein as defined therein.

Section 2.  The Guarantee.

2.01  The Guarantee.  The Company will use the proceeds from the sale of the Notes to repay indebtedness and for general corporate purposes of the group of Persons comprised of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, and the undersigned (individually, a “Subsidiary Guarantor,” and collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) are Subsidiaries of the Parent Guarantor.  For such valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees to each holder of a Note (each, a “holder”) the prompt (a) payment in full, in Dollars, when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by optional prepayment or otherwise) of the principal of, Make-Whole Amounts (if any), and interest on the Notes (including, without limitation, post-petition interest and interest on any overdue principal, Make-Whole Amount and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on any overdue interest) and all other amounts from time to time owing by the Company under the Note and Guarantee Agreement or the Notes (including, without limitation, costs, expenses and taxes) and (b) performance and observance by the Company of all covenants, agreements and conditions on its part to be performed and observed under the Note and Guarantee Agreement, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such payment and other obligations being referred to herein collectively as the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby further agrees that if the Company shall default in the payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by optional prepayment or otherwise) or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Subsidiary Guarantor will (x) promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by

1

acceleration, by optional prepayment or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal and (y) pay to any holder such amounts, to the extent lawful, as shall be sufficient to pay the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of collection or of otherwise enforcing any of such holder’s rights under the Note and Guarantee Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees.

All obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 2.01 shall survive the transfer of any Note and any obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 2.01 relating to obligations of the Company under the Note and Guarantee Agreement that are expressly stated to survive the payment of any Note shall also survive the payment of such Note.

2.02  Obligations Unconditional. (a)  The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 2.01 constitute a present and continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not collectibility and are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Company under the Note and Guarantee Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 2.02 that the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, under any and all circumstances.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

(1)  any amendment or modification of any provision of the Note and Guarantee Agreement, the Notes or any assignment, transfer or assumption thereof (including any novation pursuant to Section 26 of the Note and Guarantee Agreement), including, without limitation, any increase in the interest rate on, principal amount of or Make-Whole Amount in respect of, the Notes, the renewal or extension of the time of payment of the Notes or the granting of time in respect of such payment thereof, or of any furnishing or acceptance of security or any additional guarantee or any release of any security or guarantee (including any addition or release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor) so furnished or accepted for the Notes;

(2)  any waiver, consent, extension, granting of time, forbearance, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of the Note and Guarantee Agreement or the Notes, or any exercise or non-exercise of any right, remedy or power in respect hereof or thereof;

(3)  any bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceedings with respect to the Company or any other Person or the properties or creditors of any of them;

(4)  the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default under, or any invalidity or any unenforceability of, or any misrepresentation, irregularity or other defect in, the Note and

2

Guarantee Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(5)  any transfer of any assets to or from the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company, including, without limitation, any transfer or purported transfer to the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company from any Person, any invalidity, illegality of, or inability to enforce, any such transfer or purported transfer, any consolidation or merger of the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company with or into any Person, any change in the ownership of any shares of capital stock of the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company, or any change whatsoever in the objects, capital structure, constitution or business of the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company;

(6)  any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, on the part of the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company or any other Person to perform or comply with, or the impossibility or illegality of performance by the Company or any other Person of, any term of the Note and Guarantee Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(7)  any suit or other action brought by, or any judgment in favor of, any beneficiaries or creditors of, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, any suit or action in any way attacking or involving any issue, matter or thing in respect of the Note and Guarantee Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement;

(8)  any lack or limitation of the status or the power of, or the incapacity or disability of, the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company or any trustee or agent thereof; or

(9) any novation by the Company pursuant to Section 26 of the Note and Guarantee Agreement; or

(10) any other thing, event, happening, matter, circumstance or condition whatsoever, not in any way limited to the foregoing (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations).

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever and any requirement that any holder proceed against or exhaust any right, power or remedy against the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company under the Note and Guarantee Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein (including, without limitation, marshalling of assets), or against any other Subsidiary Guarantor, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(c)  In the event that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall at any time pay any amount on account of the Guaranteed Obligations or take any other action in performance of its obligations hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall not exercise any subrogation or other rights hereunder, under the Notes or under the Note and Guarantee Agreement, and such Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives all rights it may have to exercise any such subrogation or other rights and all other remedies that it may have against the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company  or any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of any payment made hereunder, unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full.  If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on

3

account of any such subrogation rights or other remedy, notwithstanding the waiver thereof, such amount shall be received in trust for the benefit of the holders and shall forthwith be paid to the holders to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Guarantee shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment (including payment in full) by or on behalf of the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company to any holder is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid.

The guarantee in this Section 2 is a continuing guarantee and shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.  Each default in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall give rise to a separate claim and cause of action hereunder, and separate claims or suits may be made and brought, as the case may be, hereunder as each such default occurs.

If an event permitting the acceleration of the maturity of the principal amount of the Notes shall at any time have occurred and be continuing, and such acceleration (and the effect thereof on the Guaranteed Obligations) shall at such time be prevented by reason of the pendency against the Parent Guarantor, the Guarantor or the Company or any other Person of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that, for purposes of this Guarantee and its obligations hereunder, the maturity of the principal amount of the Notes shall be deemed to have been accelerated (with a corresponding effect on the Guaranteed Obligations) with the same effect as if the holders had accelerated the same in accordance with the terms of the Note and Guarantee Agreement, and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall forthwith pay such principal amount, any interest thereon, any Make-Whole Amount, and any other amounts guaranteed hereunder without further notice or demand.

(i) had such holder not had any connection with the Applicable Jurisdiction or any territory or political subdivision thereof other than the mere holding of a Note with the benefit of this Guarantee (or the receipt of any payments in respect thereof) or activities incidental thereto (including enforcement thereof);

(ii) but for the delay or failure by such holder (following a written request by such Subsidiary Guarantor) in the filing with an appropriate Governmental Authority or otherwise of forms, certificates, documents, applications or other reasonably required evidence (collectively “Forms”), that are required to be filed by such holder to avoid or reduce such Taxes and that in the case of any of the foregoing would not result in any confidential or proprietary income tax return information being revealed, either directly or indirectly, to any Person and such delay or failure could have been lawfully avoided by such holder, provided that such holder shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of this clause (ii) upon the good faith completion and submission of such Forms as may be specified in a written request of such Subsidiary Guarantor no later than 60 days after receipt by such holder of such written request (provided that if such Forms are required

(iii) had such holder not breached any representation or warranty contained in Section 6.2(a), (c) or (d) of the Note and Guarantee Agreement.

(c)  If any Subsidiary Guarantor has made a payment to or on account of any holder of a Note pursuant to clause (a) above and such holder is entitled to a refund of the Tax to which such payment is attributable from the Governmental Authority to which the payment of the Tax was made and such refund can be obtained by filing one or more Forms, then (i) such holder shall, as soon as practicable after receiving a written request therefor from such Subsidiary Guarantor (which request shall include a copy of such Forms to be filed), use its reasonable efforts to promptly file such Forms and (ii) upon receipt of such refund, if any, promptly pay over such refund to such Subsidiary Guarantor (net of any costs incurred in complying with such request).
