Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified in the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto and each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal amount of Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as applicable, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.

(c) Temporary Global Notes. Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided.

Following the termination of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note shall be exchanged for beneficial interests in the Regulation S Permanent Global Note pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Simultaneously with the authentication of the Regulation S Permanent Global Note, the Trustee shall cancel the Regulation S Temporary Global Note. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided.

(d) Terms. The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuer pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer as provided in Section 4.10 hereof or a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.14 hereof. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article 3.

Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Issuer without notice to or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Initial Notes; provided, that the Issuer’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Issuer’s compliance with Section 4.09 hereof. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture.

(e) Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Notes that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication.

At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, as the case may be, by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.

On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes. In addition, at any time, from time to time, the Trustee shall upon an Authentication Order authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes for an aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order for such Additional Notes issued hereunder.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to

authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuer.

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.05 Holder Lists.

The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes.

(v) The Issuer shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

Section 2.09 Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer, or by any Affiliate of the Issuer, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with

respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor.

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture.

The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which proposed date must conform to the requirements of this Section 2.12), and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Trustee shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided, that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall send or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid or electronically sent, to each Holder a notice at his or her address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note.

Section 2.13 CUSIP Numbers.

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

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; no Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not in an amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption.

Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, the Issuer shall sent or cause to be sent electronically or mailed by first-class mail notices of redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address (or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC), except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 14 hereof. Notices of redemption may be conditional.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

(a) the redemption date;

(b) the redemption price;

(c) if any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note;

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

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

(f) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

The notice, if sent in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject to Section 3.05 hereof, on and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption Price.

Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.

If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest accrued to the redemption date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed; provided, that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(xx) Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor incurred in connection with or in contemplation of, or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, the acquisition by the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor of property used or useful in a Similar Business (whether through the direct purchase of assets or the purchase of Capital Stock of, or merger, amalgamation or consolidation with, any Person owning such assets); provided, that, after giving pro forma effect to such transaction and any related transactions, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, for the most recently ended four fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such Indebtedness is incurred, (A) would have had a Leverage Ratio of not greater than the Leverage Ratio on the Issue Date and (B) would have had a Leverage Ratio lower than the Leverage Ratio for such period immediately prior to giving pro forma effect to such transaction and any related transactions; and

(xxi) incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50.0 million at any time outstanding.

(i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in clauses (i) through (xxi) of Section 4.09(b) hereof or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof, the Issuer, in its sole discretion, shall classify or reclassify such item. of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) and shall only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in one of the above clauses; provided, that all Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facilities on the Issue Date shall be treated as incurred on the Issue Date under clause (i) of Section 4.09(b) hereof; and

(ii) at the time of incurrence, the Issuer shall be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.09(a) and Section 4.09(b) hereof.

Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09.

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided, that if such Indebtedness is

incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced.

The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

Section 4.10 Asset Sales.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause, make or suffer to exist an Asset Sale, unless:

(i) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(ii) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided, that the amount of:

(A) any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s, as applicable, most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes, that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets and for which the Issuer and all of its Restricted Subsidiaries have been validly released by all creditors in writing,

(B) any securities received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received) within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale, and

(C) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 2.5% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value,

shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this provision and for no other purpose.

(b) Within 390 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale.

(i) to permanently reduce:

(A) Obligations under the Senior Indebtedness, and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(B) Obligations under Senior Subordinated Indebtedness (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto); provided, that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth under Section 4.10(c) hereof) to all Holders of Notes to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid, or

(C) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary,

(ii) to make (A) an Investment in any one or more businesses, provided, that such Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) capital expenditures or (C) acquisitions of other assets, in each of (A), (B) and (C), used or useful in a Similar Business, or (iii) to make an investment in (A) any one or more businesses, provided, that such Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) properties or (C) acquisitions of other assets that, in each of (A), (B) and (C), replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale;

provided, that, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as the Issuer or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds shall be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”); provided further that if any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.

(c) The Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to comply with this Section 4.10 if the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is required to transfer any asset into a trust for FCC regulatory purposes and such trust is then required by the FCC or other governmental entity to sell or otherwise dispose of such asset, so long as in each case any Net Proceeds received by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries are applied in accordance with this Section 4.10.

(d) Any Net Proceeds from the Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) hereof shall be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Issuer shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required by the terms of any Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes (“Pari Passu Indebtedness”), to the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness that is an integral multiple of $1,000 that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. The Issuer shall commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $10.0 million by sending the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee.

To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Issuer shall select such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset to zero.

(e) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.10, the holder of such Net Proceeds may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

(f) The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof.

Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $2.0 million, unless:

(i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; and

(ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee:

(A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $5.0 million, a resolution adopted by the majority of the board of directors of the Issuer approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) of this Section 4.11(a); and

(B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $20.0 million, a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view.

(b) The provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof shall not apply to the following:

(i) transactions between or among the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(ii) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.07 hereof and the definition of “Permitted Investments”;

(iii) the payment to the applicable Affiliates of members of the Consortium pursuant to the Advisory Services Agreement of (A) co-advisory fees in an aggregate amount in any fiscal year not to exceed the amount of the ongoing advisory fee set forth in the Advisory Services Agreement as in effect on the Issue Date for such fiscal year, (B) related expenses payable thereunder (calculated, solely for the purpose of this clause (iii), assuming that such fees and related expenses had not been paid, when calculating Net Income), (plus any unpaid advisory fees within such amount, accrued interest thereon and related expenses accrued in any prior year), and (C) any termination fees pursuant to the Advisory Services Agreement not to exceed the amount set forth in the Advisory Services Agreement as in effect on the Issue Date;

(iv) the payment of reasonable and customary fees paid to, and indemnities provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Issuer, any of its direct or indirect parent companies or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(v) transactions in which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis;

(vi) any agreement as in effect as of the Issue Date, or any amendment thereto (so long as any such amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders when taken as a whole as compared to the applicable agreement as in effect on the Issue Date);

(vii) the Transaction and the payment of all fees and expenses related to the Transaction;

(viii) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the board of directors of the

Issuer or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party;

(ix) the issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to any Permitted Holder or to any director, officer, employee or consultant;

(x) payments by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to any member of the Consortium made for any financial advisory, financing, underwriting or placement services or in respect of other investment banking activities, including, without limitation, in connection with acquisitions or divestitures which payments are approved by a majority of the board of directors of the Issuer in good faith;

(xi) payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees or consultants of the Issuer, any of its direct or indirect parent companies or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and employment agreements, stock option plans and other similar arrangements with such employees or consultants which, in each case, are approved by the Issuer in good faith;

(xii) investments by any member of the Consortium in securities of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries so long as (A) the investment is being offered generally to other investors on the same or more favorable terms and (B) the investment constitutes less than 5% of the proposed or outstanding issue amount of such class of securities;

(xiii) any transaction with a joint venture or similar entity which would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such joint venture or similar entity; provided, that no Affiliate of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary shall have a beneficial interest in such joint venture or similar entity; and

(xiv) transactions with Cumulus or any of its Affiliates involving or for the benefit of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, including without any limitation any transactions regarding use of programming, network programming and sales, sales commissions, compensation to radio stations or the employment or compensation of personnel and contractors, including on air talent, in each case, (A) in the ordinary course of business, which are fair to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the majority of disinterested members of the board of directors of the issuer, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party or (B) which would not constitute a Change of Control because it meets the conditions of the proviso to the definition of “Change of Control” in Section 1.01 hereof.

Section 4.12 Liens.

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures obligations under any Indebtedness ranking pari passu with or subordinated to the Notes or any related Guarantee, on any asset or property of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, unless:

(a) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and related Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Liens; or

(b) in all other cases, the Notes or the Guarantees are equally and ratably secured, except that the foregoing shall not apply to (i) Liens securing the Notes and the related Guarantees and (ii) Liens securing Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor.

Section 4.13 Corporate Existence.

Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (a) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary and (b) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted

Subsidiaries, if the Issuer in good faith shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 4.14 Offer to Repurchase upon Change of Control.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently sent a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under Section 3.07 hereof, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer shall send notice of such Change of Control Offer electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder to the registered address of such Holder (or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary) with the following information:

(i) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment by the Issuer,

(ii) the purchase price and the purchase date, which will be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(iii) that any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest;

(iv) that unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;

(v) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;

(vi) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuer to purchase such Notes, provided, that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the 30th day following the date of the Change of Control notice, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased;

(vii) that if the Issuer is redeeming less than all of the Notes, the Holders of the remaining Notes will be issued new Notes and such new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (which must be equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof); and

(viii) the other instructions, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Section 4.14, that a Holder must follow.

The notice, if sent in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (1) the notice is sent in a manner herein provided and (2) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that, properly received such notice without defect.

The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.14, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations in this Section 4.14 by virtue thereof.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent permitted by law,

(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer,

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered, and

(iii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuer.

(c) In the event a Change of Control occurs at a time when the Issuer is prohibited by the terms of any Senior Indebtedness from purchasing Notes, then prior to the sending of the notice of a Change of Control to holders of Notes but in any event within 45 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer shall undertake to (i) repay in full all Obligations, and terminate all commitments, under the Senior Credit Facilities and all other Senior Indebtedness, the terms of which require repayment and/or termination of commitments upon a Change of Control or offer to repay in full all Obligations, and terminate all commitments, under the Senior Credit Facilities and all other such Senior Indebtedness and to repay the Obligations owed to (and terminate all commitments of) each lender which has accepted such offer or (ii) obtain the requisite consents under the agreements governing such Senior Indebtedness to permit the repurchase of the Notes. If such a consent is not obtained or borrowings repaid, the Issuer will remain prohibited from purchasing the Notes.

(d) The Issuer shall first comply with Section 4.14(c) hereof before it shall be required to repurchase Notes pursuant to Section 4.14(a) hereof. The Issuer’s failure to comply with Section 4.14(c) hereof (and any failure to send a notice of Change of Control as a result of the prohibition in Section 4.14(c)) may (with notice and lapse of time) constitute an Event of Default described in clause (iii), but shall not constitute an Event of Default described in clause (i) under Section 6.01(a) hereof.

(e) The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

(f) The provisions of this Section 4.14 relative to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of a Change of Control may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes.

(g) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.14, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.14 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06 hereof.

Section 4.15 Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries.

The Issuer shall not permit any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries guarantee other capital markets debt securities), other than a Subsidiary Guarantor, to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any other Subsidiary Guarantor unless:

(a) such Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor:

(i) if the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee are subordinated in right of payment to such Indebtedness, the Guarantee under the supplemental indenture shall be subordinated to such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee with respect to such Indebtedness substantially to the same extent as the Notes are subordinated to such Indebtedness; and

(ii) if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes;

(b) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and shall not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Guarantee; and

(i) such Guarantee has been duly executed and authorized; and

(ii) such Guarantee constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including, without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity;

provided, that this Section 4.15 shall not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary.

Section 4.16 Limitation on Layering.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinate in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is either.

(a) equal in right of payment with the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee of the Notes, as the case may be; or

(b) expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee of the Notes, as the case may be.

For purposes of this Indenture, Indebtedness that is unsecured shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, and Senior Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.

(i) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged; or

(ii) holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or

(iii) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

Section 6.02 Acceleration.

(a) If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) hereof with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes may declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately; provided, however, that so long as any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Indenture as part of the Senior Credit Facilities shall be outstanding, no such acceleration shall be effective until the earlier of

(i) acceleration of any such Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities; or

(ii) five Business Days after the giving of written notice of such acceleration to the Issuer and the Representative under the Senior Credit Facilities.

Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) hereof with respect to the Issuer, all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately without further action or notice. The Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default, except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. In addition, the Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if in the judgment of the Trustee acceleration is not in the best interest of the Holders of the Notes.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest, or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

(b) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes because of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(iv) shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the Holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by the Holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such Holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

Section 6.03 Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. Delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences hereunder except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note held by a non-consenting Holder (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer); provided, subject to Section 6.02 hereof, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05 Control by Majority.

Holders of a majority in principal amount of the total outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law, the Intercreditor Agreement or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of a Note or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

Subject to Section 6.07 hereof, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

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

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

(c) Holders of the Notes have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

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

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

(f) such action is not inconsistent with the Intercreditor Agreement.

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

Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(i) or (ii) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

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

Section 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07 hereof, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.13 Priorities.

If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit; having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture including that of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(a) the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

(b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of such Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith; and

(d) this Section 8.02.

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.

Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15 and 4.16 hereof and clauses (iv) and (v) of Section 5.01(a), Sections 5.01(c) and 5.01(d) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood

that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(a)(iii), 6.01(a)(iv), 6.01(a)(v), 6.01(a)(vi) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(a)(vii) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(a)(viii) and 6.01(a)(ix) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default.

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes:

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Notes:

(a) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on the Notes on the date of Stated Maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be, of such principal, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes and the Issuer must specify whether such Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(b) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions,

(i) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or

(ii) since the issuance of the Notes, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law,

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

(c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to such tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(d) no Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other indebtedness, and in each case the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit;

(e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the Senior Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which, the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make the deposit required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(f) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion and subject to customary assumptions and exclusions following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of Section 547 of Title 11 of the United States Code;

(g) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or any Guarantor or others; and

(h) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

The Collateral will be released from the Lien securing the Notes, as provided in Section 10.06 hereof, upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8.

Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. Money and Government Securities so held in trust are not subject to Article 11 or Article 13 hereof

The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06 Repayment to Issuer.

Subject to applicable law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

Section 8.07 Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium,

if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 9

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuer, any Guarantor (with respect to a Guarantee or this Indenture) and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, any Guarantee or Notes and any Security Document without the consent of any Holder:

(a) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency;

(b) to provide for uncertificated Notes of such series in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

(d) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders;

(e) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder;

(f) to add covenants for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer or any Guarantor;

(g) to enter into an Intercreditor Agreement (including any amendments or supplements thereto) and additional or supplemental Security Documents;

(h) to evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment under this Indenture of a successor Trustee thereunder pursuant to the requirements thereof;

(i) to provide for the issuance of exchange notes or private exchange notes, which are identical to exchange notes except that they are not freely transferable, or to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes as provided in Section 2.01(d) hereof;

(j) to add a Guarantor under this Indenture;

(k) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of New Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in such “Description of New Notes” section was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Guarantee or the Notes; or

(l) making any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including, without limitation to facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes; provided, however, that (i) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes.

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its board of directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the addition of a Guarantor under this Indenture upon execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, and delivery of an Officer’s Certificate. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture.

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes.

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.14 hereof), the Notes, the Guarantees, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Guarantees, the Notes, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Sections 2.08 and 2.09 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02.

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its board of directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

Without the consent of each Holder of Notes, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not:

(a) reduce the principal amount of such Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed final maturity of any such Note or alter or waive the provisions with respect to the redemption of such Notes except as provided above with respect to Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.14 hereof;

(d) waive a Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration, or in respect of a covenant or provision contained in this Indenture or any Guarantee which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all Holders;

(e) make any Note payable in money other than that stated therein;

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

(g) make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions;

(h) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes;

(i) make any change in the subordination provisions hereof that would adversely affect the Holders; or

(j) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify the Guarantees of any Significant Subsidiary in any manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes.

Section 9.03 With Consent of Representatives of Designated Senior Indebtedness.

Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Indenture may make or result in any change to this Section 9.03 or any provision of Articles 10, 11 or 13 hereof (or any of the component definitions used therein) without express written consent of each Representative of Designated Senior Indebtedness.

Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the identity of Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement, or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been obtained.

Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuer may not sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until the board of directors approves it. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 15.04 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel will be required for the Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture.

ARTICLE 10

COLLATERAL AND SECURITY

Section 10.01 Collateral and Security Documents.

The due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an interest payment date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes and performance of all other Obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors to the Holders, the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent under this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Security Documents, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder (the “Secured Obligations”), shall be secured as provided in the Security Documents, which define the terms of the Liens that secure the Secured Obligations, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. The Trustee and the Issuer hereby acknowledge and agree that the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, as the case may be, holds the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, in each case pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents. Each Holder, by accepting a Security, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and this Indenture, and authorizes and directs the Notes Collateral Agent and, as applicable, the Trustee to enter into the Security Documents and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee (if it is not then the Notes Collateral Agent) copies of all documents delivered to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents, and will do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be reasonably required by the next sentence of this Section 10.01, to assure and confirm to the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent the security interests in the Collateral contemplated hereby, by the Security Documents or any part thereof, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes secured hereby, according to the intent and purposes herein expressed. The Issuer shall take, and shall cause the Subsidiaries of the Issuer to take, and Holdings shall take, at their sole expense, any and all actions reasonably required, or which the Trustee or Notes Collateral Agent may (at the direction of the Required Holders) request, to cause the Security Documents to create and maintain, as security for the Secured Obligations, a valid, duly created and enforceable and perfected Lien and security interest in and on all of the Collateral (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), in favor of the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders under the Security Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Security Documents may be amended from time to time to add other parties holding Parity Lien Debt and (in the case of the Intercreditor Agreement) other Parity Lien Debt and other Priority Lien Obligations, in each case to the extent permitted to be incurred under Sections 4.09 and 4.12 of this Indenture or as otherwise permitted by the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 10.02 Equal and Ratable Sharing of Collateral by Holders of Parity Lien Debt.

Notwithstanding: (i) anything to the contrary contained in the Security Documents; (ii) the time of incurrence of any series of Parity Lien Debt; (iii) the order or method of attachment or perfection of any Liens securing any series of Parity Lien Debt; (iv) the time or order of filing or recording of financing statements, mortgages or other documents filed or recorded to perfect any Lien upon any Collateral; (v) the time of taking possession or control over any Collateral; (vi) that any Parity Lien may not have been perfected or may be or have become subordinated, by equitable subordination or otherwise, to any other Lien; or (vii) the rules for determining priority under any law governing relative priorities of Liens:

(a) all Parity Liens granted at any time by the Issuer or any other Pledgor will secure, equally and ratably, all present and future Parity Lien Debt; and

(b) all proceeds of all Parity Liens granted at any time by the Issuer or any other Pledgor will be allocated and distributed equally and ratably on account of the Parity Lien Debt.

This Section 10.02 is intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable as a third party beneficiary by, each present and future holder of Parity Lien Debt, each present and future Parity Lien Representative and the Note Collateral Agent as holder of Parity Liens.

Section 10.03 Ranking of Parity Liens.

Notwithstanding: (i) anything to the contrary contained in the Security Documents; (ii) the time of incurrence of any Secured Indebtedness; (iii) the order or method of attachment or perfection of any Liens securing Secured Indebtedness; (iv) the time or order of filing or recording of financing statements, mortgages or other documents filed or recorded to perfect any Lien upon any Collateral; (v) the time of taking possession or control over any Collateral; (vi) that any Lien securing Priority Lien Obligations may not have been perfected or may be or have become subordinated, by equitable subordination or otherwise, to any other Lien; or (vii) the rules for determining priority under any law governing relative priorities of Liens, all Parity Liens at any time granted by the Issuer or any other Pledgor will be subject and subordinate to all Liens securing Priority Lien Obligations.

This Section 10.03 is intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable as a third party beneficiary by, each present and future holder of Priority Lien Obligations, each present and future Representative for holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the Bank Collateral Agent as holder of the Liens securing the Priority Lien Obligations. No other Person will be entitled to rely on, have the benefit of or enforce those provisions.

In addition, this Section 10.03 is intended solely to set forth the relative ranking, as Liens, of the Liens securing Parity Lien Debt as against the Liens securing Priority Lien Obligations. Neither the Notes, nor any other Parity Lien Debt nor the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy for the payment or collection thereof are intended to be, or will ever be, by reason of this Section 10.03, in any respect subordinated, deferred, postponed, restricted or prejudiced (it being understood that the forgoing shall not be construed to limit any rights of the Bank Collateral Agent or any other holder of Priority Lien Obligations arising under the Intercreditor Agreement or Article 11 or 13 of this Indenture).

Section 10.04 Relative Rights.

Nothing in this Indenture, the Notes or the Security Documents will:

(a) impair, as between the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer to pay principal of, premium and interest, if any, on the Notes in accordance with their terms or any other obligation of the Issuer or any other Pledgor;

(b) affect the relative rights of Holders of Notes as against any other creditors of the Issuer or any other Pledgor (other than (i) holders of Liens securing Priority Lien Obligations, Permitted Prior Liens or other Parity Liens and (ii) as provided in Articles 11 and 13 of this Indenture); or

(c) restrict or prevent any Holder of Notes or any other Parity Lien Debt, the Notes Collateral Agent or any Parity Lien Representative from taking any lawful action in an insolvency or liquidation proceeding not specifically restricted or prohibited by the Intercreditor Agreement or Articles 11 and 13 of this Indenture.

Section 10.05 Perfection; Insurance.

(a) The Issuer and each of the other Pledgors will do or cause to be done all acts and things that may be required to assure and confirm that the Notes Collateral Agent holds, for the benefit of the Holders and the holders of Parity Lien Debt, duly created and enforceable and perfected Liens upon the Collateral (including any property or assets that are acquired or otherwise become Collateral after the Notes are issued), in each case, as contemplated by, and with the Lien priority required under, (i) the Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) the indenture, credit agreement or other agreement governing each other series of Parity Lien Debt, the Security Documents (other than any Security Documents that do not secure Parity Lien Debt) and the Intercreditor Agreement (collectively, the “Parity Lien Documents”).

Upon the reasonable request of the Notes Collateral Agent or any Parity Lien Representative at any time and from time to time, the Issuer and each of the other Pledgors will, at their sole expense, promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver such Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement, instruments, certificates, notices and other documents, and, at their sole expense, take such other actions as will be reasonably required, or that the Notes Collateral Agent may reasonably request, to create, perfect, protect, assure or enforce the Liens and benefits intended to be conferred, in each case as contemplated by the Parity Lien Documents for the benefit of the holders of Parity Lien Debt.

If the Issuer or any of the Pledgors fail to do as provided in this Section 10.05(a), the Trustee is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered, with full power of substitution, to execute, acknowledge and deliver such Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement, instruments, certificates, notices and other documents and, subject to the provisions of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, take such other actions in the name, place and stead of the Issuer, Holdings or such Guarantor.

(b) The Issuer and the other Pledgors will:

(i) maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance with respect to their properties and business against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by Persons engaged in the same or similar business, of such types and in such amounts (after giving effect to any self-insurance reasonable and customary for similarly situated Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses as the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries) as are customarily carried under similar circumstances by such other Persons.

(ii) maintain such other insurance as may be required by law; and

(iii) maintain such other insurance as may be required by the Security Documents.

(c) Upon the request of the Notes Collateral Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Issuer and the other Pledgors will furnish to the Notes Collateral Agent full information as to their property and liability insurance carriers. Unless otherwise provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, the Issuer will cause the Holders and the holders of Parity Lien Debt, as a class, to be named as additional insureds, with a waiver of subrogation, on all insurance policies of the Issuer and the other Pledgors and the Notes Collateral Agent to be named as loss payee, with 30 days’ notice of cancellation or material change (except 10 days in case of non-payment), on all property and casualty insurance policies of the Issuer and the other Pledgors.

Section 10.06 Release of Collateral.

(a) Subject to subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 10.06, Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by the Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or as otherwise provided hereby. Upon the request of the Issuer pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent hereunder have been met, the Issuer, Holdings and the Subsidiary Guarantors will be entitled to a release of property and assets included in the Collateral from the Liens securing the Notes, and the Trustee shall release, or instruct the Notes Collateral Agent to release, as applicable, the same from such Liens at the Issuer’s sole cost and expense, under one or more of the following circumstances (whether prior to or after the discharge of the Priority Lien Obligations):

(i) to enable the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries to consummate the disposition of such property or assets to the extent not prohibited under Section 4.10;

(ii) if a Guarantor is released from a Guarantee with respect to the Notes, the release of the property and assets of such Guarantor; or

(iii) pursuant to an amendment or waiver in accordance with Article 9 of this Indenture.

In addition, the Lien on the Collateral securing the Notes will terminate and be released automatically (and without regard to the requirements described in the preceding sentence) if the Liens on the Collateral securing Priority Lien Obligations are released by the Bank Collateral Agent (unless, at the time of such release of such first-priority Liens, a Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture), except if any such release is the result of payment in full and termination of the Priority Lien Obligations; provided, however, that if there is reinstated a lien securing any Priority Lien Obligations on any such Collateral, then the lien securing the Notes with regard to such Collateral will also be deemed reinstated on a second-priority basis in favor of the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding the existence of a Default, the Lien on the Collateral securing the Notes shall also terminate and be released automatically to the extent the Liens on the Collateral securing Priority Lien Obligations are released by the Bank Collateral Agent in connection with a sale, transfer or disposition of Collateral that is either (1) not prohibited under this Indenture or (2) occurs in connection with the foreclosure of, or other

exercise of remedies with respect to, such Collateral by the Bank Collateral Agent (a “Foreclosure Release”), in either case except with respect to any proceeds of such sale, transfer or disposition that remain after satisfaction in full in cash of the Priority Lien Obligations. The Liens on the Collateral securing the Notes that otherwise would have been released pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph will be released when such Default and all other Defaults under this Indenture cease to exist.

The security interests in all Collateral securing the Notes also will be released upon (1) payment in full of the principal of, together with accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes and all other Obligations hereunder, the Guarantees and the Security Documents that are due and payable at or prior to the time such principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, are paid or (2) a legal defeasance or covenant defeasance pursuant to Article 8 of this Indenture or a discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 14.

Upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture and the Security Documents, if any, to such release have been met and any necessary or proper instruments of termination, discharge, satisfaction or release prepared by the Issuer, the Notes Collateral Agent shall execute, deliver or acknowledge (at the Issuer’s expense) such instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Notes Collateral Agent may execute, deliver and acknowledge any such acknowledgement or release without previously receiving an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel in connection with a Foreclosure Release.

(b) At any time when a Default has occurred and is continuing and the maturity of the Notes has been accelerated (whether by declaration or otherwise) and the Trustee (if not then the Notes Collateral Agent) has delivered a notice of acceleration to the Notes Collateral Agent, no release of Collateral pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or the Security Documents will be effective as against the Holders, except as otherwise provided in the Intercreditor Agreement or as otherwise contemplated under this Indenture.

Section 10.07 Permitted Releases Not To Impair Lien.

The release of any Collateral from the terms hereof and of the Security Documents or the release of, in whole or in part, the Liens created by the Security Documents, will not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral or Liens are released pursuant to the applicable Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or the terms of this Article 10. The Trustee and each of the Holders acknowledge that a release of Collateral or a Lien strictly in accordance with the terms of the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or this Article 10 will not be deemed for any purpose to be in contravention of the terms of this Indenture.

Section 10.08 Certificates of the Trustee.

In the event that the Issuer wishes to release Collateral in accordance with this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents at a time when the Trustee is not itself also the Notes Collateral Agent and the Issuer has delivered the certificates and documents required by the Security Documents, the Trustee will deliver a certificate to the Notes Collateral Agent confirming such delivery. The Trustee, however, shall have no duty to confirm the legality or validity of such documents, its sole duty being to confirm the delivery of such documents which, on their face, conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

Section 10.09 Suits To Protect the Collateral.

Subject to the provisions of Article 7 hereof and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, may or may direct the Notes Collateral Agent to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:

(a) enforce any of the terms of the Security Documents; and

(b) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Secured Obligations of the Issuer, Holdings and each Guarantor under this Indenture and the Security Documents.

Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement and Articles 11 and 13 of this Indenture, the Trustee shall have power to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem

expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of any of the Security Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral (including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the Lien on the Collateral or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders or the Trustee).

Section 10.10 Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Documents.

Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and Articles 11 and 13 of this Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 10.11 Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee.

In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article 10 upon the Issuer, Holdings or any Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Issuer, Holdings or any Guarantor or of any officer or officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article 10; and if the Trustee shall be in the possession of the Collateral under any provision of this Indenture (including in its capacity as the Notes Collateral Agent), then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee.

Section 10.12 Release upon Termination of the Company’s Obligations.

In the event that the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying that all the obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents have been satisfied and discharged by complying with the provisions of Article 8 and Section 7.07 or by payment in full of the principal of, together with accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes and all other Obligations under this Indenture, the Guarantees under this Indenture and the Security Documents that are due and payable at or prior to the time such principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, are paid, and all such obligations have been so satisfied and discharged, the Trustee shall deliver to the Issuer and the Notes Collateral Agent a notice stating that the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, disclaims and gives up any and all rights it has in or to the Collateral (other than with respect to funds held by the Trustee pursuant to Article 8), and any rights it has under the Security Documents, and upon receipt by the Notes Collateral Agent of such notice, the Notes Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to hold a Lien in the Collateral on behalf of the Trustee and shall do or cause to be done all acts reasonably necessary to release such Lien as soon as is reasonably practicable.

Section 10.13 Notes Collateral Agent.

(a) The Trustee shall initially act as Notes Collateral Agent and shall be authorized to appoint co-Notes Collateral Agents as necessary in its sole discretion. In the event the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent shall at any time not be the same Person, the Notes Collateral Agent shall take such actions under the Security Documents as are requested by the Trustee and as are not inconsistent with or contrary to the provisions of any Security Document. Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in the Security Documents, neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

(b) The Trustee, as Notes Collateral Agent, is authorized and directed to (i) enter into the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Security Documents and the

Intercreditor Agreement and (iii) perform and observe its obligations under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) If the Issuer, Holdings or any Guarantor (i) incurs Priority Lien Obligations at any time when no Intercreditor Agreement is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting Priority Lien Obligations entitled to the benefit of any existing Intercreditor Agreement is concurrently retired, and (ii) delivers to the Notes Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel so stating and requesting the Notes Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor agreement (on substantially the same terms as the Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the Priority Lien Obligations so incurred, the Notes Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor agreement, bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder.

Section 10.14 Designations.

For purposes of the provisions hereof and the Intercreditor Agreement requiring the Issuer to designate Indebtedness for the purposes of the term “Parity Lien Debt” or any other such designations hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreement, any such designation shall be sufficient if the relevant designation is set forth in an Officer’s Certificate and delivered to the Trustee, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Bank Collateral Agent.

Section 10.15 Intercreditor Agreement Governs.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Bank Collateral Agent shall enter into an Intercreditor Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, which shall provide, among other things, that:

(a) the Bank Collateral Agent may determine the time and method by which the security interests in the Collateral will be enforced;

(b) all Liens securing the Priority Lien Obligations shall be and remain senior in right, priority, operation, effect and all other respects to all Liens held by the Holders of the Notes; and

(c) the amount of Priority Lien Obligations may be increased, extended, renewed, replaced, restated, supplemented, restructured, repaid, refunded, refinanced or otherwise amended or modified from time to time, all without affecting the subordination of the Liens held by the holders of the Notes.

In addition, the Intercreditor Agreement shall contain payment subordination provisions consistent with the provisions of Article 11 hereof.

Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Note, (x) consents to the subordination of Liens provided for in the Intercreditor Agreement, (y) agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and (z) authorizes and instructs the Trustee to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement as Trustee and on behalf of such Holder.

In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Article 10 and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. In addition, nothing in this Article 10 shall (or shall be construed to) limit or modify in any manner the subordination provisions contained in Articles 11 and 13 of this Indenture.

ARTICLE 11

SUBORDINATION

Section 11.01 Agreement To Subordinate.

The Issuer agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the payment of all Obligations owing in respect of the Notes is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 11, to the prior payment in full in cash of all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer and that the subordination is for the benefit of and enforceable by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. The Notes shall in all respects rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the

Issuer and will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer; and only Indebtedness of the Issuer that is Senior Indebtedness shall rank senior to the Notes in accordance with the provisions set forth herein. All provisions of this Article 11 shall be subject to Section 11.12.

Section 11.02 Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy.

Upon any payment or distribution of the assets of the Issuer to creditors upon a total or partial liquidation or a total or partial dissolution of the Issuer or in a reorganization of or similar proceeding relating to the Issuer or its property:

(a) the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of such Senior Indebtedness before Holders shall be entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any kind or character with respect to any Obligations on, or relating to, the Notes; and

(b) until the Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is paid in full in cash, any payment or distribution to which Holders would be entitled but for the subordination provisions of this Indenture shall be made to holders of such Senior Indebtedness as their interests may appear, except that Holders may receive Permitted Junior Securities.

To the extent any payment of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer (whether by or on behalf of the Issuer, as proceeds of security or enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise) is declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be paid to any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other similar Person under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, fraudulent conveyance or similar law, then, if such payment is recovered by, or paid over to, such receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or similar Person, the Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as if such payment had not occurred. It is further agreed that any diminution (whether pursuant to court decree or otherwise, including without limitation for any of the reasons described in the preceding sentence) of the Issuer’s obligation to make any distribution or payment pursuant to any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, except to the extent such diminution occurs by reason of the repayment (which has not been disgorged or returned) of such Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer in cash, shall have no force or effect for purposes of the subordination provisions contained in Article 11, with any turnover of payments as otherwise calculated pursuant to this Article 11 to be made as if no such diminution had occurred. The Issuer shall promptly give written notice to the Trustee of any such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, or reorganization of the Issuer; provided, that any delay or failure to give such notice shall have no effect on the subordination provisions contained herein.

Section 11.03 Default on Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer.

Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor shall pay principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (or pay any other Obligations relating to the Notes, fees, costs, expenses, indemnities and rescission or damage claims) or make any deposit pursuant to Article 8 or Article 14 hereof and may not purchase, redeem or otherwise retire or acquire for cash or property any Notes (collectively, “pay the Notes”) (except in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) if either of the following occurs (a “Payment Default”):

(a) any Obligation on any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is not paid in full in cash when due; or

(b) any other default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer occurs and the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its terms;

unless, in either case, the Payment Default has been cured or waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash; provided, however, that the Issuer shall be entitled to pay the Notes without regard to the foregoing if the Issuer and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the Representatives of all Designated Senior Indebtedness with respect to which the Payment Default has occurred and is continuing.

During the continuance of any default (other than a Payment Default) (a “Non-Payment Default”) with respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated without further notice (except such notice as may be required to effect such acceleration) or the expiration of any

applicable grace periods, the Issuer shall not pay the Notes (except in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) for a period (a “Payment Blockage Period”) commencing upon the receipt by the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer) of written notice (a “Blockage Notice”) of such Non-Payment Default from the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness specifying an election to effect a Payment Blockage Period and ending 179 days thereafter. So long as there shall remain outstanding any Senior Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities, a Blockage Notice may be given only by the applicable Representative. The Payment Blockage Period shall end earlier if such Payment Blockage Period is terminated (i) by written notice to the Trustee and the Issuer from the Person or Persons who gave such Blockage Notice; (ii) because the default giving rise to such Blockage Notice is cured, waived or otherwise no longer continuing; or (iii) because such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been discharged or repaid in full in cash.

Notwithstanding the provisions described in the immediately preceding two sentences (but subject to the provisions contained in the first sentence of this Section 11.03 and Section 11.02 hereof), unless the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness or the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have accelerated the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness or a Payment Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuer shall be entitled to resume paying the Notes after the end of such Payment Blockage Period. The Notes shall not be subject to more than one Payment Blockage Period in any consecutive 360-day period irrespective of the number of Non-Payment Defaults with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer during such period. However, in no event shall the total number of days during which any Payment Blockage Period or Periods on the Notes is in effect exceed 179 days in the aggregate during any consecutive 360-day period, and there must be at least 181 days during any consecutive 360-day period during which no Payment Blockage Period is in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no Non-Payment Default that existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any Payment Blockage Period shall be, or be made, the basis for the commencement of a subsequent Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days (it being acknowledged that any subsequent action, or any breach of any financial covenants during such initial Payment Blockage Period, that, in either case, would give rise to a Non-Payment Default pursuant to any provisions under which a Non-Payment Default previously existed or was continuing shall constitute a new Non-Payment Default for this purpose).

Section 11.04 Acceleration of Payment of Notes.

If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Issuer shall promptly notify the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness of the acceleration; provided, that any failure to give such notice shall have no effect whatsoever on the provisions of this Article 11. So long as there shall remain outstanding any Senior Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities, a Blockage Notice may be given only by the Representative thereunder. If any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is outstanding, the Issuer may not pay the Notes until five Business Days after the Representatives of all the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness receive notice of such acceleration and, thereafter, may pay the Notes only if this Indenture otherwise permits payment at that time.

Section 11.05 When Distribution Must Be Paid Over.

If a distribution is made to Holders that, due to the subordination provisions, should not have been made to them, such Holders are required to hold it in trust for the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer and pay it over to their Representative, if any.

Section 11.06 Subrogation.

After all Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is paid in full in cash and until the Notes are paid in full, Holders shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Indebtedness. A distribution made under this Article 11 to holders of such Senior Indebtedness which otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between the Issuer and Holders, a payment by the Issuer on such Senior Indebtedness.

Section 11.07 Relative Rights.

This Article 11 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

(a) impair, as between the Issuer and Holders, the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with their terms;

(b) prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a Default, subject to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer to receive payments or distributions otherwise payable to Holders and such other rights of such holders of Senior Indebtedness as set forth herein; or

(c) affect the relative rights of Holders and creditors of the Issuer other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Indebtedness.

Section 11.08 Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Issuer.

No right of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Issuer or by its failure to comply with this Indenture.

Section 11.09 Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.

Notwithstanding Section 11.03 hereof, the Trustee or any Paying Agent may continue to make payments on the Notes and shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any payments unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives written notice satisfactory to him that payments may not be made under this Article 11; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the subordination of the Obligations under the Notes to Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer shall not be affected and the Holders receiving any payments in contravention of Section 11.02 and/or 11.03 (and such respective payments) shall otherwise be subject to the provisions of this Article 11. The Issuer, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer shall be entitled to give the notice; provided, however, that, if an issue of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer has a Representative, only the Representative shall be entitled to give the notice.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity shall be entitled to hold Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 11 with respect to any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of such Senior Indebtedness; and nothing in Article 7 shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article 11 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof or any other Section of this Indenture.

Section 11.10 Distribution or Notice to Representative.

Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their Representative (if any).

Section 11.11 Article 11 Not To Prevent Events of Default or Limit Right To Accelerate.

The failure to make a payment pursuant to the Notes by reason of any provision in this Article 11 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default. Nothing in this Article 11 shall have any effect on the right of the Holders or the Trustee to accelerate the maturity of the Notes.

Section 11.12 Trust Moneys Not Subordinated.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, payments from money or the proceeds of Government Securities held in trust by the Trustee for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes pursuant to Article 8 or Article 14 hereof shall not be subordinated to the prior payment of any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or subject to the restrictions set forth in this Article 11, and none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any such amount to the Issuer or any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or any other creditor of the Issuer, provided, that the subordination provisions of this Article 11 were not violated at the time the applicable

amounts were deposited in trust pursuant to Article 8 or Article 14 hereof and the respective deposit in the trust was otherwise made in accordance with Article 8 or Article 14 hereof, as the case may be.

Section 11.13 Trustee Entitled To Rely.

Upon any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 11, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 11.02 hereof are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders or (c) upon the Representatives of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Issuer, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 11. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 11, the Trustee shall be entitled to request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 11, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee shall be entitled to defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. The provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof shall be applicable to all actions or omissions of actions by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 11.

Section 11.14 Trustee To Effectuate Subordination.

A Holder by its acceptance of a Note agrees to be bound by this Article 11 and authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee, on his behalf, to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination between the Holders and the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer as provided in this Article 11 and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

If the Trustee does not file a Proper Proof of Claim in such proceeding prior to 15 days before the expiration of the time to file a Proof of Claim in such proceeding, then the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer (or their Representative) are hereby authorized to have the right to file and are (or is) hereby authorized to file, in the name of the Trustee, a Proof of Claim for and on behalf of the Holders; provided, that (a) if the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer (or their Representative) file any Proof of Claim as contemplated above and the Trustee shall subsequently file a Proper Proof of Claim in such proceeding before the expiration of the time to file a Proof of Claim in such proceeding, such subsequent Proper Proof of Claim filed by the Trustee shall supersede any such Proof of Claim theretofore filed by the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer (or their Representative), and such Proof of Claim theretofore filed by the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer (or their Representative) shall thereupon deemed to be withdrawn, and (b) the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to authorize the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness (or their Representative) to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes, or to authorize the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness (or their Representative) to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. This paragraph is intended solely to permit the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer to preserve their “turnover right” pursuant to the applicable subordination provisions in this Article 11 in circumstances where a Proper Proof of Claim has not been filed by the Trustee before the expiration of the time to file a Proof of Claim in a bankruptcy proceeding, and nothing herein is intended to impair the rights of the Trustee under Section 6.13 and 7.07.

Section 11.15 Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer.

The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders or the Issuer or any other Person, money or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 11 or otherwise.

Section 11.16 Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer on Subordination Provisions.

Each Holder by accepting a Note acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Notes, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders, without incurring responsibility to the Trustee or the Holders and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article 11 or the obligations hereunder of the Holders to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, do any one or more of the following; (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer is outstanding; (b) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer; (c) release any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer; and (d) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Issuer and any other Person.

ARTICLE 12

GUARANTEES

Section 12.01 Guarantee.

Subject to this Article 12, from and after the consummation of the Transaction, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, subject to Article 13, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, interest and premium, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 12.01.

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any

amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantees.

Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

The Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be a second-priority senior subordinated secured obligation of such Guarantor and shall be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior Indebtedness (including all Priority Lien Obligations) of such Guarantor, if any.

Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

The obligations of each Guarantor to the Holders and to the Trustee pursuant to the Guarantee of such Guarantor and this Indenture are expressly subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, to the extent and in the manner provided in Article 13.

Section 12.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor (including, without limitation, all Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor) that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 12, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

Section 12.03 Execution and Delivery.

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by its President, one of its Vice Presidents or one of its Assistant Vice Presidents.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

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

If required by Section 4.15 hereof, the Issuer shall cause any newly created or acquired Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article 12, to the extent applicable.

Section 12.04 Subrogation

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders of Notes against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.01 hereof; provided, that no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full.

Section 12.05 Benefits Acknowledged.

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Section 12.06 Release of Guarantees.

A Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and no further action by such Guarantor, the Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee, upon:

(a) (i) any sale, exchange or transfer (by merger or otherwise) of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (including any sale, exchange or transfer), after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary (in the case of Subsidiary Guarantors) or all or substantially all the assets of such Guarantor which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

(ii) the release or discharge of the guarantee by such Guarantor of the Senior Credit Facilities or the guarantee which resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee;

(iii) the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in, compliance with Section 4.07 hereof; or

(iv) the Issuer exercising its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option in accordance with Article 8 hereof or the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture being discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and

(b) delivery by such Guarantor to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.

ARTICLE 13

SUBORDINATION OF GUARANTEES

Section 13.01 Agreement To Subordinate.

Each Guarantor agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee are subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 13, to the prior payment in full in cash of all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor and that the subordination is for the benefit of and enforceable by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. A Guarantor’s obligations under its Guarantee shall in all respects rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of such Guarantor, and will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of such Guarantor; and only Indebtedness of such Guarantor that is Senior Indebtedness shall rank senior to the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee in accordance with the provisions set forth herein. All provisions of this Article 13 shall be subject to Section 13.12.

Section 13.02 Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy.

Upon any payment or distribution of the assets of a Guarantor to creditors upon a total or partial liquidation or a total or partial dissolution of such Guarantor or in a reorganization of or similar proceeding relating to such Guarantor or its property:

(a) the holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of such Senior Indebtedness before Holders shall be entitled to receive any payment; and

(b) until the Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor is paid in full in cash, any payment or distribution to which Holders would be entitled but for the subordination provisions of this Indenture shall be made to holders of such Senior Indebtedness as their interests may appear, except that Holders may receive Permitted Junior Securities.

To the extent any payment of Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor (whether by or on behalf of the Issuer, as proceeds of security or enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise) is declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be paid to any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other similar Person under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, fraudulent conveyance or similar law, then, if such payment is recovered by, or paid over to, such receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or similar Person, the Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as if such payment had not occurred. It is further agreed that any diminution (whether pursuant to court decree or otherwise, including without limitation for any of the reasons described in the preceding sentence) of any Guarantor’s obligation to make any distribution or payment pursuant to any Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, except to the extent such diminution occurs by reason of the repayment (which has not been disgorged or returned) of such Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor in cash, shall have no force or effect for purposes of the subordination provisions contained in this Article 13, with any turnover of payments as otherwise calculated pursuant to this Article 13 to be made as if no such diminution had occurred. The Issuer shall promptly give written notice to the Trustee of any such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of any Guarantor, provided, that any delay or failure to give such notice shall have no effect on the subordination provisions contained herein.

Section 13.03 Default on Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor.

A Guarantor shall not make any payment pursuant to its Guarantee (or pay any other Obligations relating to its Guarantee, fees, costs, expenses, indemnities and rescission or damage claims) and may not purchase, redeem or otherwise retire any Notes (collectively, “pay its Guarantee”) (except in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) if either of the following occurs (a “Guarantor Payment Default”):

(a) any Obligation on any Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor is not paid in full in cash when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period); or

(b) any other default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor occurs and the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its terms;

unless, in either case, the Guarantor Payment Default has been cured or waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall be entitled to pay its Guarantee without regard to the foregoing if such Guarantor and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the Representatives of all Designated Senior Indebtedness with respect to which the Guarantor Payment Default has occurred and is continuing.

During the continuance of any default (other than a Guarantor Payment Default) (a “Non-Guarantor Payment Default”) with respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated without further notice (except such notice as may be required to effect such acceleration) or the expiration of any applicable grace periods, such Guarantor shall not pay its Guarantee (except in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) for a period (a “Guarantee Payment Blockage Period”) commencing upon the receipt by the Trustee (with a copy to such Guarantor and the Issuer) of written notice (a “Guarantee Blockage Notice”) of such Non-Guarantor Payment Default from the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness specifying an election to effect a Guarantee Payment Blockage Period and ending 179 days thereafter. So long as there shall remain outstanding any Senior Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities, a Guarantee Blockage Notice may be given only by the applicable Representative. The Guarantee Payment Blockage Period shall end earlier if such Guarantee Payment Blockage Period is terminated (x) by written notice to the Trustee, the relevant Guarantor and the Issuer from the Person or Persons who gave such Guarantee Blockage Notice; (y) because the default giving rise to such Guarantee Blockage Notice is cured, waived or otherwise no longer continuing; or (z) because such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been discharged or repaid in full in cash.

Notwithstanding the provisions described in the immediately preceding two sentences (but subject to the provisions contained in the first sentence of this Section 13.03 and Section 13.02 hereof), unless the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness or the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have accelerated the maturity of such Designated. Senior Indebtedness or a Guarantor Payment Default has occurred and is continuing, the relevant Guarantor shall be entitled to resume paying its Guarantee after the end of such Guarantee Payment Blockage Period. Each Guarantee shall not be subject to more than one Guarantee Payment Blockage Period in any consecutive 360-day period irrespective of the number of Non-Payment Defaults with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness of the relevant Guarantor during such period. However, in no event shall the total number of days during which any Guarantee Payment Blockage Period or Periods on a Guarantee is in effect exceed 179 days in the aggregate during any consecutive 360-day period, and there must be at least 181 days during any consecutive 360-day period during which no Guarantee Payment Blockage Period is in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no Non-Payment Default that existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any Guarantee Payment Blockage Period shall be, or be made, the basis for the commencement of a subsequent Guarantee Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days (it being acknowledged that any subsequent action, or any breach of any financial covenants during such initial Guarantee Payment Blockage Period, that, in either case, would give rise to a Non-Guarantor Payment Default pursuant to any provisions under which a Non-Guarantor Payment Default previously existed or was continuing shall constitute a new Non-Guarantor Payment Default for this purpose).

Section 13.04 Demand for Payment.

If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default and a demand for payment is made on a Guarantor pursuant to Article 12 hereof, the Issuer or such Guarantor shall promptly notify the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor or the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness of such demand; provided, that any failure to give such notice shall have no effect whatsoever on the provisions of this Article 13. So long as there shall remain outstanding any Senior Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities, a Blockage Notice may be given only by the Representative thereunder. If any Designated Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor is outstanding, such Guarantor may not pay its Guarantee until five Business Days after the Representatives of all the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness receive notice of such acceleration and, thereafter, may pay its Guarantee only if this Indenture otherwise permits payment at that time.

Section 13.05 When Distribution Must Be Paid Over.

If a distribution is made to Holders that, due to the subordination provisions, should not have been made to them, such Holders are required to hold it in trust for the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the relevant Guarantor and pay it over to them as their interests may appear.

Section 13.06 Subrogation.

After all Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor is paid in full in cash and until the Notes are paid in full, Holders shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Indebtedness. A distribution made under this Article 13 to holders of such Senior Indebtedness which otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between the relevant Guarantor and Holders, a payment by such Guarantor on such Senior Indebtedness.

Section 13.07 Relative Rights.

This Article 13 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

(a) impair, as between such Guarantor and Holders, the obligation of such Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, to make payments under its Guarantee in accordance with its terms;

(b) prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a default by such Guarantor under its obligations with respect to its Guarantee, subject to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor to receive payments or distributions otherwise payable to Holders and such other rights of such holders of Senior Indebtedness as set forth herein; or

(c) affect the relative rights of Holders and creditors of such Guarantor other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Indebtedness.

Section 13.08 Subordination May Not Be Impaired by a Guarantor.

No right of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor to enforce the subordination of the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by such Guarantor or by its failure to comply with this Indenture.

Section 13.09 Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.

Notwithstanding Section 13.03 hereof, the Trustee or any Paying Agent may continue to make payments on the Notes and shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any payments unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives notice satisfactory to him that payments may not be made under this Article 13; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the subordination of the Guarantees to Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantors shall not be affected and the Holders receiving any payments in contravention of Section 13.02 and/or 13.03 (and such respective payments) shall otherwise be subject to the provisions of this Article 13. A Guarantor, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor shall be entitled to give the notice; provided, however, that, if an issue of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor has a Representative, only the Representative shall be entitled to give the notice.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity shall be entitled to hold Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 13 with respect to any Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of such Senior Indebtedness; and nothing in Article 7 shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article 13 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof or any other Section of this Indenture.

Section 13.10 Distribution or Notice to Representative.

Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their Representative (if any).

Section 13.11 Article 13 Not To Prevent Events of Default or Limit Right To Demand Payment.

The failure of a Guarantor to make a payment pursuant its Guarantee by reason of any provision in this Article 13 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a default by such Guarantor under its Guarantee. Nothing in this Article 13 shall have any effect on the right of the Holders or the Trustee to make a demand for payment on a Guarantor pursuant to Article 12 hereof.

Section 13.12 Trust Moneys Not Subordinated.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, payments from money or the proceeds of Government Securities held in trust by the Trustee for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes pursuant to Article 8 or Article 14 hereof shall not be subordinated to the prior payment of any Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor or subject to the restrictions set forth in this Article 13, and none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any such amount to such Guarantor or any holder of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor or any other creditor of such Guarantor, provided, that the subordination provisions of this Article 13 were not violated at the time the applicable amounts were deposited in trust pursuant to Article 8 or Article 14 hereof, as the case may be

Section 13.13 Trustee Entitled To Rely.

Upon any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 13, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 13.02 hereof are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders or (c) upon the Representatives of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of such Guarantor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 13. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 13, the Trustee shall be entitled to .request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 13, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee shall be entitled to defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. The provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof shall be applicable to all actions or omissions of actions by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 13.

Section 13.14 Trustee To Effectuate Subordination.

A Holder by its acceptance of a Note agrees to be bound by this Article 13 and authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee, on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination between the Holders and the holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor as provided in this Article 13 and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

If the Trustee does not file a Proper Proof of Claim in such proceeding prior to 15 days before the expiration of the time to file a Proof of Claim in such proceeding, then the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor (or their Representative) are hereby authorized to have the right to file and are (or is) hereby authorized to file, in the name of the Trustee, a Proof of Claim for and on behalf of the Holders; provided, that (a) if the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor (or their Representative) file any Proof of Claim as contemplated above and the Trustee shall subsequently file a Proper Proof of Claim in such proceeding before the expiration of the time to file a Proof of Claim in such proceeding, such subsequent Proper Proof of Claim filed by the Trustee shall supersede any such Proof of Claim theretofore filed by the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor (or their Representative), and such Proof of Claim theretofore filed by the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor (or their Representative) shall thereupon deemed to be withdrawn, and (b) the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to authorize the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness (or their Representative) to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes, or to authorize the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness (or their Representative) to vote in respect of the claim of any

Holder in any such proceeding. This paragraph is intended solely to permit the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor to preserve their “turnover right” pursuant to the applicable subordination provisions in this Article 13 in circumstances where a Proper Proof of Claim has not been filed by the Trustee before the expiration of the time to file a Proof of Claim in a bankruptcy proceeding, and nothing herein is intended to impair the rights of the Trustee under Section 6.13 and 7.07.

Section 13.15 Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness of Guarantors.

The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders or such Guarantor or any other Person, money or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 13 or otherwise.

Section 13.16 Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor on Subordination Provisions.

Each Holder by accepting a Note acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Notes, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of a Guarantor may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders, without incurring responsibility to the Trustee or the Holders and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article 13 or the obligations hereunder of the Holders to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, do any one or more of the following: (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor is outstanding; (b) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor; (c) release any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor; and (d) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against such Guarantor and any other Person.

ARTICLE 14

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 14.01 Satisfaction and Discharge.

This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect as to all Notes, when either:

(a) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(b) (i) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise, shall become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer and the Issuer or any Guarantor have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;

(ii) no Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness) with respect to this Indenture or the Notes

shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the Senior Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(iii) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and

(iv) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (i) of clause (b) of this Section 14.01, the provisions of Section 14.02 and Section 8.06 hereof shall survive.

Section 14.02 Application of Trust Money.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 14.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 14.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 14.01 hereof; provided, that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. INTEREST. CMP SUSQUEHANNA CORP., a Delaware corporation, promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note from March 26, 2009 until maturity at a per annum rate for each Interest Period equal to LIBOR applicable to such Interest Period, as determined by the Calculation Agent on the Interest Determination Date for such Interest Period, plus 3.00%. The initial Interest Period for the Notes shall be one month. Thereafter, no later than two Business Days prior to the end of an Interest Period, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the Issuer’s selection of the next Interest Period, which notice shall include the LIBOR applicable to such Interest Period and the duration of such Interest Period; provided, that if the Issuer shall fail to give such notice to the Trustee, the next Interest Period shall be a period identical in length to the Interest Period then in effect. Promptly after receipt of notice thereof, the Trustee shall notify the Holders of a change in the Interest Period. Upon request from any Holder, the Trustee shall provide notice of the interest rate in effect on this Note for the current Interest Period and, if it has been determined, the interest rate to be in effect for the next Interest Period. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be May 15, 2009. The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes, if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 1 or November 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest and premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

3. PAYING AGENT, CALCULATION AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent, Calculation Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Calculation Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

4. INDENTURE. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of March 26, 2009 (the “Indenture”), among CMP Susquehanna Corp., the Guarantors named therein and the Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer designated as its Variable Rate Senior Subordinated Secured Second Lien Notes due 2014. The Issuer shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.01 and 4.09 of the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

A-5

the registered address of each Holder or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

(b) Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph 5 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture.

6. MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Issuer shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

7. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Subject to Section 3.03 of the Indenture, notice of redemption will be sent electronically or mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date (except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 14 of the Indenture) to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the redemption date interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

8. OFFERS TO REPURCHASE.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). The Change of Control Offer shall be made in accordance with Section 4.14 of the Indenture.

(b) If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries consummates an Asset Sale, within 10 Business Days of each date that Excess Proceeds exceed $10.0 million, the Issuer shall commence, an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required by the terms of any Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes (“Pari Passu Indebtedness”), to the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and, at the direction of the Issuer, such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Issuer prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes.

9. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.

10. SECURITY. The Notes and the Guarantees are secured by a second-priority lien on and security interest in the Collateral as set forth in the Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement.

A-6

11. SUBORDINATION. The Notes and the Guarantees are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer and the Guarantors on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture. To the extent provided in the Indenture, Senior Indebtedness must be paid before the Notes and Guarantees may be paid. The Issuer agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, to the subordination provisions contained in the Indenture and authorizes the Trustee to give it effect and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for such purpose.

12. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

13. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture, the Guarantees, the Notes, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

14. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.01(a) of the Indenture with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately; provided, however, that so long as any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the Indenture as part of the Senior Credit Facilities shall be outstanding, no such acceleration shall be effective until the earlier of: (1) acceleration of any such Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities; or (2) five Business Days after the giving of written notice of such acceleration to the Issuer and the administrative agent under the Senior Credit Facilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default in payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any of the Notes held by a non-consenting Holder. The Issuer and each Guarantor (to the extent that such Guarantor is so required under the Indenture) is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuer is required within five (5) Business Days after becoming aware of any Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default and what action the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto.

15. AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee.

16. GOVERNING LAW. THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES, THE GUARANTEES AND THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS.

17. CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

The Issuer will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement. Requests may be made to the Issuer at the following address:

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuer’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein and under the Indenture (the “Guarantee”); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

2. Agreement to Guarantee. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees as follows:

(a) Along with all Guarantors named in the Indenture, to jointly and severally unconditionally guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

(i) the principal of and interest, premium, if any, on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. This is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

D-1

(c) The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding fast against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever.

(f) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.

(g) As between the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary for the purpose of this Guarantee.

(h) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this Guarantee.

(j) This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes and Guarantee, whether as a “voidable preference”, “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Note shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

(k) In case any provision of this Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(l) This Guarantee shall be a second-priority senior subordinated secured obligation of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary, and shall be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, if any.

Notwithstanding the date, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations granted on the Collateral or of any Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations granted on the Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the UCC, any other applicable law, this Agreement, the First-Lien Documents or the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents to the contrary, or any other circumstance whatsoever (including any non-perfection of any Lien purporting to secure the First-Lien Obligations and/or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations), the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents) hereby agrees that: (a) any Lien on the Collateral securing any First-Lien Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditor or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects and prior to any Lien on the Collateral securing any of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations; (b) any Lien on the Collateral now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, any Second-Lien Creditor or any agent or trustee therefor regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the Collateral securing any First-Lien Obligations, and (c) it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or effect of which is, or could be, to make any Lien securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations pari passu with, or to give the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or Second-Lien Creditors any preference or priority relative to, any Lien securing the First-Lien Obligations with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that (i) the First-Lien Obligations (and the security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations (and the security therefor) and (ii) the grant of Liens securing payment and performance of the First-Lien Obligations and the grant of Liens securing payment and performance of the Second-Lien

E-9

Subordinated Obligations create two separate and distinct Liens with each such Lien securing only the corresponding Obligations.

2.2 Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Second-Lien Creditor, and the First-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each First-Lien Creditor, agrees that it shall not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), (i) the validity or enforceability of any Security Document or any Obligation thereunder, (ii) the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens, mortgages, assignments and security interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents with respect to the First-Lien Obligations or the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations or (iii) the relative rights and duties of the holders of the First-Lien Obligations and the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations granted and/or established in this Agreement or any other Security Document with respect to such Liens, mortgages, assignments, and security interests; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditor to enforce this Agreement, including the priority of the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations as provided in Section 2.1 hereof.

So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not occurred, the parties hereto agree that the Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any other Grantor to, grant or permit any additional Liens, or take any action to perfect any additional Liens, on any asset or property to secure any Second-Lien Subordinated Obligation unless it has also granted or contemporaneously grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the First-Lien Obligations and has taken all actions to perfect such Liens. To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the First-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the other First-Lien Creditors, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2 hereof.

2.4 Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that it is their intention that the Second-Lien Collateral shall not be more expansive than the First-Lien Collateral, and shall not include any Excluded Collateral. In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 8.9 hereof, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:

(i) upon request by the First-Lien Collateral Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the Second-Lien Collateral and the steps taken to perfect the Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents; and

(ii) that the guarantors for the First-Lien Obligations and the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations shall be identical.

Section 3. Enforcement.

3.1 Exercise of Remedies. (a) So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Grantor: (i) the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors will not exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral (including, without limitation, the exercise of any right under any lockbox agreement, control account agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor is a party) or institute or commence, or join with any Person in commencing, any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure, enforcement, collection or execution and any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), and will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor or any other exercise by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor, of any rights and remedies relating to the Collateral under the First-Lien Credit Documents or otherwise, or object to the forbearance by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Collateral; and (ii) the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive

E-10

right, and the Required First-Lien Creditors shall have the exclusive right to instruct the First-Lien Collateral Agent, to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including setoff and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, all as though the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations did not exist; provided, that, (A) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Grantor, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent may file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, (B) the Second-Lien Collateral Agent may take any action (not adverse to the prior Liens on the Collateral securing the First-Lien Obligations, or the rights of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to preserve or protect its Lien on the Shared Collateral in a manner not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, and (C) the Second-Lien Creditors shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleading in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second-Lien Creditors, including any claim secured by the Shared Collateral, if any, in each case in a manner not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien Creditors may enforce the provisions of the First-Lien Credit Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

(b) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, agrees that it will not take or receive any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral, unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the sole right of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors with respect to the Collateral is to hold a Lien on the Shared Collateral pursuant to the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred in accordance with the terms of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents and applicable law (it being understood that at no time shall the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors have any rights with respect to the Excluded Collateral).

(c) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), (i) agrees that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors will not take any action that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit any exercise of remedies under the First-Lien Credit Documents, including any collection, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, or that would limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Lien or Security Document or subordinate the priority of the First-Lien Obligations to the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations or grant the Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations equal ranking to the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations and (ii) hereby waives any and all rights it or the Second-Lien Creditors may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise (whether arising under the UCC or under any other law) to object to the manner in which the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors seek to enforce or collect the First-Lien Obligations or the Liens granted in any of the First-Lien Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or First-Lien Creditors is adverse to the interest of the Second-Lien Creditors.

(d) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents or any other Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the First-Lien Documents.

E-11

(e)

The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors, and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents) agrees that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors will not, without the prior written consent of the Required First-Lien Creditors (or the First-Lien Collateral Agent at their direction or with their consent), issue any payment blockage or similar notice with respect to any obligations that are subordinated in right of payment to any First-Lien Obligations before the Discharge of First-Lien Credit Agreement Obligations has occurred.

3.2 Actions Upon Breach. (a) If any Second-Lien Creditor, contrary to this Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against any Grantor or the Collateral, any First-Lien Creditor may intervene and interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, in its name or in the name of such Grantor.

(b) Should any Second-Lien Creditor, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to or threaten to take any action with respect to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or take any other action in violation of this Agreement or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor (in its own name or in the name of the relevant Grantor), with the prior written consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, (i) may obtain relief against such Second-Lien Creditor by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Second-Lien Creditor that (x) the First-Lien Creditors’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (y) each Second-Lien Creditor waives any defense that the First-Lien Creditors cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages, and (ii) shall be entitled to damages, as well as reimbursement for all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with any action to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.

Upon the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent any proceeds of Shared Collateral held by it in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, to be applied by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent to the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations in such order as specified in the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents.

4.2 Payments Over. Until such time as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, any Collateral or proceeds thereof (together with assets or proceeds subject to Liens referred to in the final sentence of Section 2.3 hereof) (or any distribution in respect of the Collateral, whether or not expressly characterized as such) received by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff) relating to the Collateral or that is otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to the First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

Unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors) shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First-Lien Credit Documents, to adjust settlement for any insurance

E-13

policy covering the Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First-Lien Security Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) in respect to the Collateral shall be paid to the First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors pursuant to the terms of the First-Lien Credit Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of commitments, letters of credit and Secured Hedge Agreements) and, after the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Second-Lien Creditors (in respect of any Shared Collateral) to the extent required under the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents and then, to the extent no Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, to such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor shall, at any time, receive from the insurer any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the First-Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2 of this Agreement. Unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the First-Lien Collateral Agent will have the sole and exclusive right to be named an additional insured and loss payee under any such insurance policy.

5.3 Amendments to Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents. (a) Without the prior written consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors), no Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document may be amended, restated, supplemented, modified and/or Refinanced or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement, restatement, modification and/or Refinancing, or the terms of any new Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document, would contravene the provisions of this Agreement, the First-Lien Credit Agreement or any other First-Lien Credit Document (it being understood that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Trustee may rely upon an opinion of counsel to the Borrower to make any determination as to whether the requirements of this Section 5.3 have been complied with). The Borrower, each other Grantor and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent each agree that each Second-Lien Subordinated Security Document shall include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the First-Lien Collateral Agent):

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of March [ ], 2009 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among CMP Susquehanna Radio Holdings Corp., CMP Susquehanna Corp., the other Grantors from time to time party thereto, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, in its capacity as the initial First-Lien Collateral Agent, and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., in its capacity as the initial Second-Lien Collateral Agent thereunder. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”

In addition, each of the Borrower, each other Grantor and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent each agree that each Second-Lien Security Document covering any Shared Collateral constituting real property shall contain such other language as the First-Lien Collateral Agent may reasonably request to reflect the subordination of such Second-Lien Security Document to the First-Lien Security Document covering such Shared Collateral.

(b) In the event the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors and the relevant Grantor(s) enter into any amendment, restatement, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First-Lien Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First-Lien Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, the other First-Lien Creditors, the Borrower or any other Grantor thereunder, then such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Second-Lien Subordinated Security Document without the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or the other Second-Lien Creditors and without any action by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, the Borrower or any other Grantor, provided, that (A) no such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall have the effect of (i) removing assets subject to the Lien of the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is

E-14

permitted or required by Section 5.1 of this Agreement, or (ii) imposing additional duties on the Second-Lien Collateral Agent without its consent, and (B) written notice of such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall have been given to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (although the failure to give any such notice shall in no way affect the effectiveness of any such amendment, waiver or consent).

(c) The Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations may be Refinanced, in whole or in part, without the consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the First-Lien Creditors, all without affecting the Lien priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided, that (A) any such Refinancing shall be permitted pursuant to the terms of the First-Lien Credit Documents, (B) the aggregate principal amount of the Refinancing Indebtedness shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations then being Refinanced plus accrued interest, fees and other amounts outstanding in respect thereof, and the cash yield or cash interest on the Refinanced Indebtedness shall be at then current market rates, (C) the Refinanced Indebtedness shall be secured and guaranteed only to the same extent securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations on the date of such Refinancing and (D) the terms of any such Refinanced Indebtedness shall not (i) result in an earlier maturity date or decreased weighted average life thereof, (ii) change any event of default or condition to an event of default with respect thereto (other than to eliminate any such event of default or increase any grace period related thereto) or add any event of default, (iii) add any mandatory prepayments thereto, (iv) change the lien subordination provisions thereof (or of any guaranty thereof) or (v) make any other amendment thereof or change thereto, if the effect of such other amendment or change, together with all other amendments or changes made, is to increase materially the obligations of the obligors thereunder or to confer any additional rights on the Second-Lien Creditors or other holders of Indebtedness (or a representative on their behalf) under the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents or any document governing such Refinanced Indebtedness that would be adverse to the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor under the First-Lien Credit Documents or any First-Lien Creditor.

5.4 Rights As Unsecured Creditors. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against Holdings, the Borrower or any other Grantor that has guaranteed the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents, the First-Lien Documents and applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement (and subject in any event to the subordination provisions in the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture and the other Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of the required payments of interest and principal on the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including setoff) or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them. In the event the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Collateral as a result of any enforcement of its rights, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing First-Lien Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing First-Lien Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors may have with respect to the First-Lien Collateral. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that the rights of the Second-Lien Creditors to (i) receive payments of principal, interest and other amounts owing in respect of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations and (ii) exercise rights and remedies as creditors against the Borrower or any other Grantor that has guaranteed the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations are further subject to the subordination provisions set forth in the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture and the other Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents.

5.5 Bailee for Perfection. (a) The First-Lien Collateral Agent agrees to acquire, and acknowledges it holds, the Pledged Collateral or other Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (it being understood that with respect to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, it holds solely the Pledged Collateral or other Collateral constituting Shared Collateral) and, in each case, any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under

E-15

the First-Lien Credit Documents and the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5.

(b) Until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral in accordance with the terms of the First-Lien Credit Documents as if the Liens of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent under the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents did not exist. The rights of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the First-Lien Collateral Agent’s rights under the First-Lien Credit Documents.

(c) The First-Lien Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the First-Lien Creditors and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor to assure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties or responsibilities of the First-Lien Collateral Agent under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee in accordance with this Section 5.5.

(d) The First-Lien Collateral Agent, acting pursuant to this Section 5.5, shall not have by reason of the First-Lien Security Documents, the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents, this Agreement or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of the First-Lien Creditors, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor.

(e) Upon the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) (or proceeds thereof) together with any necessary endorsements, first, to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (solely to the extent such Pledged Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral), if any Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations remain outstanding, and second, to the Borrower or the relevant Grantor if no First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The First-Lien Collateral Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by such Person in connection with such Person’s obtaining a first-priority interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

5.6 When Discharge of First-Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If at any time after the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the Borrower immediately thereafter enters into any Refinancing of any First-Lien Credit Document evidencing a First-Lien Obligation, then such Discharge of First-Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement, and the obligations under such Refinanced First-Lien Credit Document shall automatically be treated as First-Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the first-lien collateral agent under such First-Lien Credit Documents shall be the First-Lien Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice in writing stating that the Borrower has entered into a new First-Lien Credit Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the Second-Lien Collateral Agent shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Borrower or such New Agent may reasonably request in order to provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement.

5.7 Option to Purchase First-Lien Debt

(a) Without prejudice to the enforcement of remedies by the First-Lien Creditors, any Person or Persons (in each case who must meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant First-Lien Credit Documents) at any time or from time to time designated by the holders of more than 50% in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations as being entitled to exercise all default purchase options as to the Second-Lien Obligations then outstanding (an “Eligible Purchaser”) shall have the right to purchase by way of assignment (and shall thereby also assume all commitments and duties of the First-Lien Creditors), at any time during the exercise period described in clause (c) below of this Section 5.7, all, but not less than all, of the First-Lien Obligations (other than the First-Lien Obligations of a Defaulting Creditor), including all principal of and accrued and unpaid interest and fees on and all prepayment or acceleration penalties and premiums in respect of all First-Lien Obligations outstanding at the time of purchase; provided that at the time of (and as a condition to) any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7, all commitments pursuant to any then outstanding First-Lien Credit

E-16

Agreement shall have terminated, and all Secured Hedge Agreements constituting First-Lien Documents and Cash Management Services entered into with any First-Lien Creditor shall also have been terminated in accordance with their terms. Any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7(a) shall be made as follows:

(1) for (x) a purchase price equal to the sum of (A) in the case of all loans, advances or other similar extensions of credit that constitute First-Lien Obligations (including unreimbursed amounts drawn in respect of Letters of Credit, but excluding the undrawn amount of then outstanding Letters of Credit), the greater of (I) 100% and (II) the then current market-based price, of the principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (without regard, however, to any acceleration prepayment penalties or premiums other than customary breakage costs), (B) in the case of any Secured Hedge Agreement, the aggregate amount then owing to each Hedge Bank thereunder pursuant to the terms of the respective Secured Hedge Agreement, including without limitation all amounts owing to such Hedge Bank as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof, (C) in the case of any Cash Management Services, the aggregate amount then owing to each Cash Management Bank providing such Cash Management Services pursuant to the terms of the respective documents governing such Cash Management Services, including without limitation all amounts owing to such Cash Management Bank as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof, plus (D) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts through the date of purchase; and (y) an obligation on the part of the respective Eligible Purchasers (which shall be expressly provided in the assignment documentation described below) to (i) reimburse each issuing lender (or any First-Lien Creditor required to pay same) for all amounts thereafter drawn with respect to any Letters of Credit constituting First-Lien Obligations which remain outstanding after the date of any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7, together with all facing fees and other amounts which may at any future time be owing to the respective issuing lender with respect to such Letters of Credit, and (ii) pay over to the First-Lien Creditors any amounts recovered by such Eligible Purchasers on account of any acceleration prepayment premiums or penalties with respect to the First-Lien Obligations;

(2) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) payable in cash on the date of purchase against transfer to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers (without recourse and without any representation or warranty whatsoever, whether as to the enforceability of any First-Lien Obligation or the validity, enforceability, perfection, priority or sufficiency of any Lien securing, or guarantee or other supporting obligation for, any First-Lien Obligation or as to any other matter whatsoever, except the representation and warranty that the transferor owns free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances (other than participation interests not prohibited by the First-Lien Credit Agreement, in which case the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) shall be appropriately adjusted so that the Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers do not pay amounts represented by any participation interest which remains in effect), and has the right to convey, whatever claims and interests it may have in respect of the First-Lien Obligations); provided that the purchase price in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit that remains undrawn on the date of purchase shall be payable in cash as and when such Letter of Credit is drawn upon (i) first, from the cash collateral account described in clause (a)(3) below, until the amounts contained therein have been exhausted, and (ii) thereafter, directly by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers;

(3) with such purchase accompanied by a deposit of cash collateral under the sole dominion and control of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or its designee in an amount equal to 110% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit pursuant to the First-Lien Credit Documents and the aggregate facing and similar fees which will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the Letters of Credit (assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity), as security for the respective Eligible Purchaser’s or Eligible Purchasers’ obligation to pay amounts as provided in preceding clause (a)(1)(y), it being understood and agreed that (x) at the time any facing or similar fees are owing to an issuer with respect to any Letter of Credit, the First-Lien Collateral Agent may apply amounts deposited with it as described above to pay same and (y) upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall apply amounts deposited with it as described above to repay the respective unpaid drawing. After giving effect to any payment made as described above in this clause (3), those amounts (if any) then on deposit with the First-Lien Collateral Agent as described in this clause (3) which exceed 110% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate facing and similar fees (to the respective issuers) which

E-17

will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the then outstanding Letters of Credit (assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity), shall be returned to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers (as their interests appear). Furthermore, at such time as all Letters of Credit have been cancelled, expired or been fully drawn, as the case may be, and after all applications described above have been made, any excess cash collateral deposited as described above in this clause (3) (and not previously applied or released as provided above) shall be returned to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers, as their interests appear;

(4) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) accompanied by a waiver by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors) of all claims arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as a result of exercising the purchase option contemplated by this Section 5.7;

(5) with all amounts payable to the various First-Lien Creditors in respect of the assignments described above to be distributed to them by the First-Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with their respective holdings of the various First-Lien Obligations; and

(6) with such purchase to be made pursuant to assignment documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and prepared by counsel for, the First-Lien Collateral Agent (with the cost of such counsel to be paid by the Grantors or, if the Grantors do not make such payment, by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers, who shall have the right to obtain reimbursement of same from the Grantors); it being understood and agreed that the First-Lien Collateral Agent and each other First-Lien Creditor shall retain all rights to indemnification as provided in the relevant First-Lien Credit Documents for all periods prior to any assignment by them pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.7. The relevant assignment documentation shall also provide that, if for any reason (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the First-Lien Collateral Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment)), the amount of cash collateral held by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or its designee pursuant to preceding clause (a)(3) is at any time less than the full amounts owing with respect to any Letter of Credit described above (including facing and similar fees) then the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers shall promptly reimburse the First-Lien Collateral Agent (who shall pay the respective issuing bank) the amount of deficiency.

(b) The right to exercise the purchase option described in Section 5.7(a) above shall be exercisable and legally enforceable upon at least seven Business Days’ prior written notice of exercise (which notice, once given, shall be irrevocable and fully binding on the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers) given to the First-Lien Collateral Agent by an Eligible Purchaser. Neither the First-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First-Lien Creditor shall have any disclosure obligation to any Eligible Purchaser, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor in connection with any exercise of such purchase option.

(c) The right to purchase the First-Lien Obligations as described in this Section 5.7 may be exercised (by giving the irrevocable written notice described in preceding clause (b)) during the period that (1) begins on the date occurring three Business Days after the first to occur of (x) the date of the acceleration of the final maturity of the Loans under the First-Lien Credit Agreement, (y) the occurrence of the final maturity of the Loans under the First-Lien Credit Agreement or (z) the occurrence of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to the Borrower which constitutes an event of default under the First-Lien Credit Agreement (in each case, so long as the acceleration, failure to pay amounts due at final maturity or such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding constituting an event of default has not been rescinded or cured within such three Business Day period, and so long as any unpaid amounts constituting First-Lien Obligations remain owing); provided that if there is any failure to meet the condition described in the proviso of preceding clause (a) hereof, the aforementioned date shall be extended until the first date upon which such condition is satisfied, and (2) ends on the 30th day after the start of the period described in clause (1) above.

(d) The obligations of the First-Lien Creditors to sell their respective First-Lien Obligations under this Section 5.7 are several and not joint and several. To the extent any First-Lien Creditor (a “Defaulting Creditor”) breaches its obligation to sell its First-Lien Obligations under this Section 5.7, nothing in this Section 5.7 shall be deemed to require the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor to purchase such Defaulting Creditor’s First-Lien Obligations for resale to the holders of Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations and in all cases,

E-18

the First-Lien Collateral Agent and each First-Lien Creditor complying with the terms of this Section 5.7 shall not be deemed to be in default of this Agreement or otherwise be deemed liable for any action or inaction of any Defaulting Creditor; provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall require any Eligible Purchaser to purchase less than all of the First-Lien Obligations.

(e) Each Grantor irrevocably consents to any assignment effected to one or more Eligible Purchasers pursuant to this Section 5.7 (so long as they meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant First-Lien Credit Documents, other than obtaining the consent of any Grantor to an assignment to the extent required by such First-Lien Credit Documents) for purposes of all First-Lien Credit Documents and hereby agrees that no further consent from such Grantor shall be required.

Section 6. Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.

6.1 Finance and Sale Issues. (a) Until the Discharge of the First-Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Borrower or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors) shall desire to permit the use of Cash Collateral on which the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other creditor of the Borrower or any other Grantor has a Lien or agrees, along with the Required First-Lien Creditors, to permit the Borrower or any other Grantor to obtain post-petition financing (including on a priming basis), whether from the First-Lien Creditors or any other third party under Section 362, 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law (each, a “Post-Petition Financing”), then the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees that it will not oppose or raise any objection to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting), such use of Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith that is inconsistent with Section 6.3 (except as expressly agreed in writing by the First-Lien Collateral Agent) and, to the extent the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such Post-Petition Financing incurred in compliance with this Section 6.1, the Liens of the Second-Lien Creditors on the Collateral shall be deemed to be subordinated, without any further action on the part of any person or entity, to the Liens securing such Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), and the Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations shall have the same priority with respect to the Collateral relative to the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations as if such Post-Petition Financing had not occurred; provided that the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the First-Lien Creditors acknowledge and agree that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the Second-Lien Creditors shall retain the right to raise any objection to the Post-Petition Financing that could be raised by any unsecured creditor of the Borrower, so long as such objections are not based on the Second-Lien Creditors’ status as secured creditors.

(b) Until the Discharge of the First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees that it will raise no objection to, oppose or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting), a sale or other disposition of any Collateral free and clear of its Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code if the First-Lien Creditors have consented to such sale or disposition of such assets; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, may raise objections to any such disposition of Collateral that could be raised by any creditor of the Borrower whose claims were not secured by any Liens on the Collateral, so long as such objections are not based on the Second-Lien Creditors’ status as secured creditors.

6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees that none of them shall seek relief, pursuant to Section 362(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, from the automatic stay of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or from any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, unless a motion for adequate protection permitted under Section 6.3 has been denied by the Bankruptcy Court.

E-19

6.3 Adequate Protection. (a) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees that none of them shall (i) oppose, object to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting) (a) any request by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors for adequate protection in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (or any granting of such request) or (b) any objection by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors claiming a lack of adequate protection or (ii) seek or accept any form of adequate protection under any of Sections 362, 363 and/or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Collateral, except as expressly provided in this Section 6.3.

(b) In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding:

(i) if the First-Lien Creditors (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral in connection with any use of Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing, then the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the other Second-Lien Creditors, may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a Lien on such additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations, such use of Cash Collateral and/or any Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations are so subordinated to the First-Lien Obligations under this Agreement, the First-Lien Security Documents and the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents; and

(ii) the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors shall only be permitted to seek adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in the form of (A) additional collateral, including replacement Liens on post-petition collateral, provided, that, as adequate protection for the First-Lien Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First-Lien Creditors, is also granted a security interest in and Lien upon such additional collateral, which is senior and prior to the security interest and Lien granted to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the Second-Lien Creditors; (B) replacement Liens on the Collateral, provided, that, as adequate protection for the First-Lien Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First-Lien Creditors, is also granted a security interest in and replacement Lien upon such additional collateral, which is senior and prior to the security interest and Lien granted to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the Second-Lien Creditors; and (C) an administrative expense claim, provided, that, as adequate protection for the First-Lien Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First-Lien Creditors, is also granted an administrative expense claim that is senior and prior to the administrative expense claim granted to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the Second-Lien Creditors; and provided, further, that unless the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred prior to, or occurs on, the effective date of any plan of reorganization, any adequate protection payments that may otherwise be payable to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditors in respect of any of the foregoing shall be paid to the First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors for application to the First-Lien Obligations.

6.4 No Waiver; Voting Rights; Reorganization Securities. (a) Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditor from objecting on any basis in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, including the seeking by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of adequate protection on terms inconsistent with Section 6.3 or the assertion by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of any of its rights and remedies under the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents or otherwise.

(b) In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, neither the Second-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other Second-Lien Creditor shall (i) oppose or object to the proposed treatment of First-Lien Obligations or the relative treatment of the First-Lien Obligations to the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations in any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement, or join with or support any third party in doing so, to the extent the terms of such plan or disclosure statement comply with the following clause (ii) and are otherwise consistent with the rights of the First-Lien Creditors under this Agreement or (ii) support any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement of any Grantor unless (x) such plan provides for the payment in full in cash of all First-Lien Obligations (including all post-

E-20

petition interest, fees and expenses as provided in Section 6.6 hereof) on the effective date of such plan of reorganization, or (y) such plan provides on account of the First-Lien Obligations for the retention by the First-Lien Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors, of the Liens on the Collateral securing the First-Lien Obligations, and on all proceeds thereof, and such plan also provides that any Liens retained by, or granted to, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent are only on assets or property securing the First-Lien Obligations and shall have the same relative priority with respect to the Collateral or other assets or property, respectively, as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Collateral, and to the extent such plan provides for deferred cash payments, or for the distribution of any other property of any kind or nature, on account of the First-Lien Obligations or the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, such plan provides that any such deferred cash payments or other distributions in respect of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations shall be delivered to the First-Lien Collateral Agent and distributed in accordance with the priorities provided in Sections 4.1(a) and 5.4 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second-Lien Creditors shall remain entitled to vote their claims in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(c) If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, the Second-Lien Creditors may receive Junior Permitted Securities (as defined in the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture) to the extent permitted in the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture.

6.5 Preference Issues. If any First-Lien Creditor is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Borrower or any other Grantor any amount (a “Recovery”), then the First-Lien Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and the First-Lien Creditors shall be entitled to a reinstatement of First-Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement. Any amounts received by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor on account of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations after the termination of this Agreement shall, in the event of a reinstatement of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.5, be held in trust for and paid over to the First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors, for application to the reinstated First-Lien Obligations. This Section 6.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

6.6 Post-Petition Interest. (a) Neither the Second-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other Second-Lien Creditor shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First-Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations (it being understood and agreed that such value shall be determined without regard to the existences of any Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations). Regardless of whether any such claim for post-petition interest, fees or expenses is allowed or allowable, and without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement is expressly intended to include and does include the “rule of explicitness” in that this Agreement expressly entitles the First-Lien Creditors, and is intended to provide the First-Lien Creditors with the right, to receive payment of all post-petition interest, fees or expenses through distributions made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement even though such interest, fees and expenses are not allowed or allowable against the bankruptcy estate of the Borrower or any other Grantor under Section 502(b)(2) or Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or under any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that (and to the maximum extent permitted by law the parties hereto agree that) the First-Lien Obligations (and the security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations (and the security therefor).

6.7 Waiver. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second-Lien Creditors, waives any claim it may hereafter have against any First-Lien Creditor arising out of the election by any First-Lien Creditor of the application to the claims of any First-Lien Creditor of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or out of any Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

E-21

6.8 Limitations. So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not occurred, without the express written consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, none of the Second-Lien Creditors shall (or shall join with or support any third party making, opposing, objecting or contesting, as the case may be), in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding involving any Grantor, (i) make an election for application to its claims of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) oppose, object to or contest the determination of the extent of any Liens held by any of the First-Lien Creditors or the value of any claims of First-Lien Creditors under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) oppose, object to or contest the payment to the First-Lien Creditors of interest, fees or expenses under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 7. Reliance; Waivers; Etc.

7.1 Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First-Lien Creditors under the First-Lien Documents, acknowledges that it and the other First-Lien Creditors have, independently and without reliance on the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into such First-Lien Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under any First-Lien Document or this Agreement. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, acknowledges that it and the other Second-Lien Creditors have, independently and without reliance on the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own analysis and decision to enter into each of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own decision in taking or not taking any action under the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents or this Agreement.

7.2 No Warranties or Liability. The First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First-Lien Creditors under the First-Lien Documents, acknowledges and agrees that each of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents, the ownership of any Shared Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, acknowledges and agrees that each of the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the First-Lien Creditors have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the First-Lien Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The First-Lien Creditors will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under their respective First-Lien Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The First-Lien Collateral Agent and the First-Lien Creditors shall have no duty to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the Second-Lien Creditors, to act or refrain from acting in a manner which allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreements with the Borrower or any other Grantor (including under the First-Lien Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.

7.3 No Waiver of Lien Priorities. (a) No right of the First-Lien Creditors, the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of them to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any First-Lien Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Borrower or any other Grantor or by any act or failure to act by any First-Lien Creditor or the First-Lien Collateral Agent, or by any noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, any of the First-Lien Documents or any of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the First-Lien Creditors, or any of them, may have or be otherwise charged with.

(b) Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph (but subject to the rights of the Borrower and the other Grantors under the First-Lien Documents), the First-Lien Creditors, the First-Lien Collateral Agent and any of them may, at any time and from time to time in accordance with the First-Lien Documents and/or applicable law, without the consent of, or notice to, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, without incurring any liabilities to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor and without impairing or releasing the Lien priorities and other benefits provided in this

E-22

(i) make loans and advances to any Grantor or issue, guaranty or obtain letters of credit for account of any Grantor or otherwise extend credit to any Grantor, in any amount and on any terms, whether pursuant to a commitment or as a discretionary advance and whether or not any default or event of default or failure of condition is then continuing;

(ii) change the manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of, or amend, renew, exchange, increase or alter, the terms of any of the First-Lien Obligations or any Lien on any First-Lien Collateral or guaranty thereof or any liability of the Borrower or any other Grantor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof (including any increase in or extension of the First-Lien Obligations, without any restriction as to the amount, tenor or terms of any such increase or extension) or otherwise amend, renew, exchange, extend, modify or supplement in any manner any Liens held by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the First-Lien Creditors, the First-Lien Obligations or any of the First-Lien Documents;

(iii) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, enforce or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any part of the First-Lien Collateral or any liability of the Borrower or any other Grantor to the First-Lien Creditors or the First-Lien Collateral Agent, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof;

(iv) settle or compromise any First-Lien Obligation or any other liability of the Borrower or any other Grantor or any security therefor or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof and apply any sums by whomsoever paid and however realized to any liability (including the First-Lien Obligations) in any manner or order;

(v) exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Grantor or any other Person or with respect to any security, elect any remedy and otherwise deal freely with the Borrower, any other Grantor or any First-Lien Collateral and any security and any guarantor or any liability of the Borrower or any other Grantor to the First-Lien Creditors or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof; and

(vi) release or discharge any First-Lien Obligation or any guaranty thereof or any agreement or obligation of any Grantor or any other person or entity with respect thereto.

(c) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees not to assert and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the Collateral or any other similar rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable law.

7.4 Waiver of Liability; Indemnity. (a) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, also agrees that the First-Lien Creditors and the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall have no liability to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors, and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, hereby waives any claim against any First-Lien Creditor or the First-Lien Collateral Agent, arising out of any and all actions which the First-Lien Creditors or the First-Lien Collateral Agent may take or permit or omit to take with respect to: (i) the First-Lien Documents (including, without limitation, any failure to perfect or obtain perfected security interests in the First-Lien Collateral), (ii) the collection of the First-Lien Obligations or (iii) the foreclosure upon, or sale, liquidation or other disposition of, any First-Lien Collateral. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, agrees that the First-Lien Creditors and the First-Lien Collateral Agent have no duty, express or implied, fiduciary or otherwise, to them in respect of the maintenance or preservation of the First-Lien Collateral, the First-Lien Obligations or otherwise. Neither the First-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First-Lien Creditor nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents will be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, or will be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Borrower or any other Grantor or upon the request of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, any

E-23

other holder of Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, each Second-Lien Creditor by accepting the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents agrees that neither the First-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First-Lien Creditor (in directing the Collateral Agent to take any action with respect to the Collateral) shall have any duty or obligation to realize first upon any type of Collateral or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral in any manner, including as a result of the application of the principles of marshaling or otherwise, that would maximize the return to any class of Creditors holding Obligations of any type (whether First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations), notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by such class of Creditors from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation.

(b) With respect to its share of the Obligations, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (“DBTCA”) shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder as, and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for, any other Creditor, all as if DBTCA were not the First-Lien Collateral Agent. The term “Creditors” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include DBTCA in its individual capacity as a Creditor. DBTCA and its affiliates may lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Grantors or any of their Affiliates as if DBTCA were not acting as the First-Lien Collateral Agent and without any duty to account therefor to any other Creditor.

7.5 Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien Creditors and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors, respectively, hereunder (including the Lien priorities established hereby) shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any First-Lien Document or any Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of any First-Lien Document or any Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document;

(c) any exchange of any security interest in any Collateral or any other collateral, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations or any guarantee thereof;

(d) the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Borrower or any other Grantor; or

(e) any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any other Grantor in respect of the First-Lien Obligations, or of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor in respect of this Agreement.

Any such additional party and each party hereto shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate delivered by an officer of the Borrower certifying that any Parity Lien Debt was issued or borrowed in compliance with the First-Lien Documents and the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents. Any amendment of this Agreement that is proposed to be effected without the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent as permitted by the proviso to the second preceding sentence shall be submitted to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent for its review at least five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed effectiveness of such amendment.

(b) Each waiver of the terms of this Agreement, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall not impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Grantor shall have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent the liabilities, duties or obligations of such Grantor are increased or expanded, as the case may be, as a result of such amendment, modification or waiver.
