(ii) No service charge shall be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.06, 3.07, 3.08 and 9.05 hereof).

(iii) The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

(iv) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid and legally binding obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(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.

If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note.

(b) Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.09 Outstanding Notes.

(a) The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.10 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.

(b) If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

(c) If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4A.14 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

(a) 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 Definitive 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.

(b) Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

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. The Issuer 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. 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 deliver or cause to be delivered to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

Section 2.14 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 a 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.

(a) If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes for redemption as follows (i) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of such principal national securities exchange, or, (ii) if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, subject to adjustments so that no Notes of $1,000 or less will be redeemed in part.

(b) 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. No Notes in amounts of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000; 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 a multiple of $1,000, 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.

(a) At least 10 Business Days but not more than 30 Business Days before a redemption date, the Issuer shall deliver or cause to be delivered, by first class mail or electronic transmission, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address.

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

(i) the redemption date;

(ii) the redemption price;

(iii) if any Note is being redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note;

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

(v) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price and become due on the date fixed for redemption;

(viii) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

(b) At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 15 Business Days prior to the redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. The notice, if delivered in the manner provided herein shall be presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice.

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is delivered in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may be conditional provided that any preconditions to a redemption shall be set forth in the notice of redemption. If one or more conditions specified with respect to a redemption are not satisfied or waived, the date of redemption shall be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Indenture and the Issuer shall give written notice of such non-occurrence to the Holders of the applicable Notes and to the Trustee.

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption Price.

(a) One Business Day prior to 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 interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date and all Additional Amounts, if any.

(b) 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 an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest 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 not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4A.14 hereof.

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed in Part.

Upon surrender and cancellation 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.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

(a) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof, and its consequences, and waive any related existing Default or Event of Default (except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Additional Amounts, if any, or on the principal of the Notes) if:

Section 6.05 Control by Majority.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes.

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

(a) A Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

Such limitations do not apply to the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of the principal of, premium or Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on, such Note or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment, on or after the due date expressed in the Notes, which right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder.

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 Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other securities or 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 6.10 Priorities.

[This Section subject to change based on negotiations with any other first lien debt under a credit agreement or otherwise]

(a) In order to secure the due and punctual payment of the Notes, the Issuer and the Guarantors have entered into and delivered to the Collateral Trustee the Security Agreement and the other First Lien Security Documents, in each case, to which it is a party, to create the Liens on the Collateral securing their respective obligations under the Notes and the Note Guarantees, as well as any other First Lien Secured Debt, in accordance with the terms thereof Pursuant to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Collateral Trustee and the Holders of the Notes in the Collateral shall be equal and ratable to and pari passu with the other holders of the First Lien Secured Debt Obligations under the First Lien Secured Debt Documents and senior and prior to the holders of the Second Lien Notes. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement or any other First Lien Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement and other First Lien Security Documents shall control.

(b) The Issuer and the Guarantors shall comply with all covenants and agreements contained in the First Lien Security Documents the failure to comply with which would have a material and adverse effect on the Liens purported to be created thereby securing the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the other First Lien Secured Debt.

(c) Until the discharge in full of all the Notes and the other First Lien Secured Debt (whether pursuant to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise), all remedies and enforcement actions in respect of the Collateral and any foreclosure actions in respect of any Liens on the Collateral, and all actions, undertakings or consents by the Collateral Trustee in respect of the Collateral shall be undertaken solely at the instruction of the Requisite First Lien Secured Debtholders, including without limitation:

(i) the exercise or forbearance from exercise of rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral and enforcement of Liens securing First Lien Secured Debt;

(ii) the exercise or forbearance from exercise of rights and powers of a holder of capital stock included in the Collateral;

(iii) the acceptance of Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of the First Lien Secured Debt; and

(iv) the exercise and forbearance from exercise of all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any similar law of any applicable jurisdiction or equity;

provided, however, that any actions constituting a release of all or substantially all of the Collateral shall require the consent of all holders of First Lien Secured Debt, including the Holders of the Notes, and the holders of the Second Lien Notes.

(d) Until the Notes are discharged in full or are otherwise no longer outstanding, no First Lien Secured Party (including any Holder of Notes) shall have any right to:

(i) sue, ask or demand or join with any other party to cause the Issuer or any of its Guarantors to commence any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit the lawful exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy otherwise available to any First Lien Secured Party in respect of the Liens granted to the Collateral Trustee in the Collateral under the First Lien Security Documents for the Equal and Ratable benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties;

(ii) contest any lawful exercise by the Collateral Trustee, acting at the direction of, or as consented to by, the Requisite First Lien Secured Debtholders, of any remedy or foreclosure of the Liens on the Collateral;

(iii) contest any other request for judicial relief made in any court by the Collateral Trustee at the direction of, or as consented to by, the Requisite First Lien Secured Debtholders, or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any First Lien Secured Party or Debt Representative may take any actions and exercise any and all rights available to a holder of unsecured claims so long as not in contravention of the restrictions set forth above, including the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding against the Issuer or any of our Guarantors as an unsecured creditor or any suit to enforce payment of principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any of any First Lien Secured Debt, including the Notes.

(b) Each of the Collateral Trustee and the Trustee is authorized and empowered to receive for the benefit of the Holders of Notes any funds collected or distributed under the Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien Security Documents and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders of Notes according to the provisions of this Indenture.

(c) If an Event of Default occurs under this Indenture, the Trustee shall deliver to the Collateral Trustee a written notice of such Event of Default. [If, as a result of delivering such notice to the Collateral Trustee, the Trustee becomes the Controlling Debt Representative, then subject to Article Seven hereof and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee, pursuant to the direction of Holders representing a majority of principal amount of Notes outstanding, shall or, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders of Notes, may direct the Collateral Trustee with respect to any action, omission, forbearance, enforcement or exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral for purposes of any Enforcement Action. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, each of the Collateral Trustee and the Trustee is authorized and empowered to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to protect or enforce the Liens securing the Notes and the Note Guarantees or to prevent any impairment of Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of the First Lien Security Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders of Notes in the Collateral and the interests of any other First Lien Secured Parties, 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 Liens securing the First Lien Secured Debt or be prejudicial to the interests of Holders of Notes, any other First Lien Secured Parties, the Collateral Trustee or the Trustee.

The determination as to whether an independent Person needs to sign such certificate or opinion shall be made by the Issuer and the Collateral Trustee shall have no responsibility related thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 11, the Issuer shall not be required to comply with all or any portion of TIA Section 314(d) if it determines, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms of TIA Section 314(d) and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC or its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA Section 314(d) is inapplicable to one or a series of released Collateral.

(b) [To the extent that any Liens securing the Notes, the Note Guarantees and any other First Lien Secured Debt are not perfected as of the Issue Date (other than as permitted in the Intercreditor Agreement or any First Lien Security Document) the Issuer will take such action as to have such Liens perfected prior to the date that is [90] days from the Issue Date.]

Section 11.07 Release of Collateral.

(a) The Liens securing the Notes, the Note Guarantees and any other First Lien Secured Debt on the Collateral shall be automatically terminated and released without further action by any party, in whole or in part: (i) upon any sale or disposition of any portion of Collateral in compliance with the Security Documents and Sections 3.08(a)(iii) and 4B.04 hereof; (ii) upon payment in full of principal, interest and all other Obligations on the Notes issued under this Indenture; (iii) prior to an Enforcement Action, (x) with respect to a release of less than all or substantially all of the Collateral, with the consent Requisite First Lien Secured Debt Holders or as otherwise may be required by the terms of the Security Documents and (y) with respect to a release of all or substantially all of the Collateral, with the consent of all holders of First Lien Secured Debt, including the Holders of the Notes, and the holders of the Second Lien Notes; and (iv) to the extent any Collateral becomes Excluded Assets.

(c) The release of any Collateral from the Liens securing the Notes, the Note Guarantees and any other First Lien Secured Debt or the release of, in whole or in part, the Liens securing the First Lien Secured Debt created by any of the First Lien Security Documents, will not be deemed to impair the Liens securing the First Lien Secured Debt in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral or the Liens securing the First Lien Secured- Debt are released pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable First Lien Security Documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any portion of the Notes which is not paid when due or within any applicable grace or cure period shall automatically bear interest until paid in full at the Post-Default Rate, (ii) during the period when any Event of Default of the type described in clauses (g), (h) or (i) of Section 6.01 of the Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding principal balance of the Notes shall automatically bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Post-Default Rate, (iii) if there shall occur and be continuing any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of the type described in clauses (g) or (h) of Section 6.01 of the Indenture), following written notice delivered to the Issuer from the Trustee at the request of Holders representing 25% or more of the outstanding principal amount of Notes , the outstanding principal balance of the Notes shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Post-Default Rate during the period beginning on the date such Event of Default first occurred, and ending on the date such Event of Default is cured or waived. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

2. Method of Payment. The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) and Additional Amounts, if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the record date immediately 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 2.13 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest and Additional Amounts, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of and interest, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, on, all Global Notes and to any Holder of Notes 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 and Registrar. Initially, the Trustee under the Indenture shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer, the Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

4. Indenture. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of [●], 2010 (“Indenture”) among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act 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. The Indenture pursuant to which this Note is issued provides that an unlimited aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes may be issued thereunder.

5. Redemption. At any time, the Issuer shall have the option to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, pursuant to Section 3.07 of the Indenture. The Notes are subject to the mandatory redemption pursuant to Section 3.08 of the Indenture.

6. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1.00 and integral multiples of $1.00 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 is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption. Also, the Issuer is not required to transfer or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. Transfer may be restricted as provided in the Indenture.

7. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as its owner for all purposes.

8. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes), and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder.

A-4

9. Defaults and Remedies. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to any Obligor or any Subsidiary as provided in Section 6.01(g) and (h), all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately by notice in writing to the Issuer specifying the Event of Default. Holders of the Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes 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 Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, interest or Additional Amounts) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. Holders of 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, rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Indenture, and its consequences, and waive any related existing Default or Event of Default if certain conditions are satisfied.

10. Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

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

12. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

13. 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.

A-5

14. Guarantee. The Issuer’s obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors as provided in Article Ten of the Indenture.

15. Copies of Documents. The Issuer shall furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to:

FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS

Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of , among (the “Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a subsidiary of Haights Cross Operating Company (or its permitted successor), a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., (or its permitted successor), as trustee under the Indenture referred to below (the “Trustee”).

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the Issuer and the other Guarantors party thereto have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of [•], 2010 providing for the issuance of Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes due 2012 (the “Notes”);

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 (the “Note Guarantee”); and

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

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:

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

2. Agreement to Guarantee.

(a) In accordance with the terms of Article Ten of the Indenture, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, along with all other Guarantors, jointly and severally, and fully and unconditionally, guarantees 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, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Amounts, 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, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes, if lawful (subject in all cases to any applicable grace period provided herein), 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;

B-1

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, the 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 shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees that, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, its 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 that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor.

(c) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary, subject to Section 6.06 of the Indenture, 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 Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and the Indenture.

(d) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that 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 any of the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

(e) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that 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.

(f) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary 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 Six of the Indenture for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Six of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee.

B-2

(g) 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 Holders under the Note Guarantee.

(h) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary confirms, pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, that it is the intention of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary that its Note Guarantee 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 its Note Guarantee and, to effectuate the foregoing intention, hereby irrevocably agrees that the obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary 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 Article Ten of the Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

3. No Recourse Against Others. Pursuant to Section 12.07 of the Indenture, no director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have any liability for any obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.

4. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE TIA SHALL BE APPLICABLE.

5. Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement.

6. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

7. Trustee. The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Issuer.
