(2)

If a Definitive Security is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Security, the Trustee will (x) cancel such Definitive Security, (y) record an increase in the principal amount of such Global Security equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) in the event that such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Definitive Security, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, to the transferring Holder a new Definitive Security representing the principal amount not so transferred.

The Issuers shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA to the extent required.  The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent.  The Issuers shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of each such agent.  If the Issuers fail to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 6.7.  The Issuers or any of their wholly owned Subsidiaries organized in the United States may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or transfer agent; provided that upon any Bankruptcy Event, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Securities.

The Issuers initially appoint DTC to act as depositary with respect to the Global Securities.  The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Securities.  The Issuers may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) acceptance of any appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuers and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, is delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above.  The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Issuers and the Trustee.

Issuers shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities (whether such assets have been distributed to it by the Issuers or other obligors on the Securities), shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Issuers or any Guarantor in making any such payment and shall during the continuance of any default by the Issuers (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment in respect of the Securities, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith deliver to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Securities together with a full accounting thereof.  If the Issuers or a Subsidiary of the Issuers acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund.  The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds or assets disbursed by such Paying Agent.  Upon complying with this Section 2.4, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuers or a Subsidiary of the Issuers) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.  Upon any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Securities.

SECTION 2.5.

Holder Lists.  The Trustee, as Registrar, shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a) to the extent required.  If the Trustee is not the Registrar, or to the extent otherwise required under the TIA, the Issuers, on their own behalf and on behalf of each of the Guarantors, shall furnish or cause the Registrar to furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five 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 Holders and the Issuers shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a) to the extent required.

SECTION 2.6.

Transfer and Exchange.

(a)

A Holder may transfer a Security (or a beneficial interest therein) to another Person or exchange a Security (or a beneficial interest therein) for another Security or Securities of any authorized denomination by presenting to the Registrar  a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, accompanied by any certification, opinion or other document required by this Section 2.6 or Section 2.1(e) or Section 2.1(f), as applicable.  The Registrar  will promptly register any transfer or exchange by noting the same in the Securities Register maintained by the Registrar for the purpose, and no transfer or exchange will be effective until it is registered in the Securities Register.  The transfer or exchange of any Security (or a beneficial interest therein) may only be made in accordance with this Section 2.6 and Section 2.1(e) and Section 2.1(f), as applicable, and, in the case of a Global Security (or a beneficial interest therein), the applicable rules and procedures of DTC.  The Registrar  shall refuse to register any requested transfer or exchange that does not comply with this paragraph.

(b)

Retention of Written Communications.  The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.1 or this Section 2.6.  The Issuers shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable prior written notice to the Registrar.

(c)

Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Securities.

(1)

To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers shall, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article II, execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities and Global Securities at the Registrar’s request.

(2)

No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuers or the Trustee may require the Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax assessments or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Section 2.2, Section 2.6, Section 2.7, Section 2.9, Section 2.15, Section 6.8 or Section 8.5).

(3)

The Issuers (and the Registrar) shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Security (A) for a period beginning (1) 15 days before the mailing of a notice of an offer to repurchase or redeem Securities and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or (2) 15 days before an Interest Payment Date and ending on such Interest Payment Date or (B) called for redemption.

(4)

Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, including without limitation the transfer or exchange of such Security, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.



20






(5)

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

(d)

No Obligation of the Trustee.

 (b) 

The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in, DTC or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of DTC or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than DTC) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or purchase) or the payment of any amount or delivery of any Securities (or other security or property) under or with respect to such Securities.  All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders in respect of the Securities shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be DTC or its nominee in the case of a Global Security).  The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Security shall be exercised only through DTC subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC.  The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by DTC with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

(2)

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

(e)

Affiliate Holders.  When acquiring a beneficial interest in a Global Security, any Person that is an Affiliate of the Issuers agrees to give notice to the Issuers, the Trustee and the Registrar of the acquisition and its Affiliate status.

SECTION 2.7.

Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities.  If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Issuers or the Trustee that such Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar has not registered a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuers or Trustee prior to the Security being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee; provided, however, if after the delivery of such replacement Security, a protected purchaser of the Security for which such replacement Security was issued presents for payment or registration such replaced Security, the Trustee or the Issuers shall be entitled to recover such replacement Security from the Person to whom it was issued and delivered or any Person taking therefrom, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuers or the Trustee in connection therewith.  If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Issuers and the Trustee to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced, and, in the absence of notice to the Issuers, any Guarantor or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Issuers shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

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

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 2.7, the Issuers may require that such Holder pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and of the Trustee) in connection therewith.

Subject to the proviso in the initial paragraph of this Section 2.7, every new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuers, any Guarantor (if applicable) and any other obligor upon the Securities, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 2.7 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.


21






SECTION 2.8.

Outstanding Securities.  Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding.  A Security does not cease to be outstanding in the event the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers holds the Security; provided, however, that (i) for purposes of determining which are outstanding for determining whether the Holder has concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, the provisions of Section 11.6 shall apply and (ii) in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in making a determination whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities are present at a meeting of Holders for quorum purposes or have consented to or voted in favor of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, amendment or modification hereunder, or relying upon any such quorum, consent or vote, only Securities which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be held by the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers shall not be considered outstanding.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7 (other than a mutilated Security surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuers receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.  A mutilated Security ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Security and replacement pursuant to Section 2.7.

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

SECTION 2.9.

Temporary Securities. In the event that Definitive Securities are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities.  Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form, and shall carry all rights and limitations, of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Securities.  Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities.  After the preparation of Definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for Definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency maintained by the Issuers for that purpose and such exchange shall be without charge to the Holder.  Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Securities representing an equal principal amount of Securities.  Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of Definitive Securities.

SECTION 2.10.

Cancellation.  The Issuers at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and dispose of such Securities in accordance with its internal policies and customary procedures including delivery of a certificate describing such Securities disposed (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) or deliver canceled Securities to the Issuers pursuant to written direction by an Authorized Officer of each Issuer.  If the Issuers or any Guarantor acquire any of the Securities, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.10.  The Issuers may not issue new Securities to replace Securities they have paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for any reason other than in connection with a transfer or exchange.

At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for Definitive Securities, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned by DTC to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee.  At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for Definitive Securities, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Security, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Securities Custodian for such Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

SECTION 2.11.

Payment of Interest.  Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular Record Date for such payment at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3.



22






Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of, transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 2.12.

Apportionment of Payments.

(a)

All payments of principal and cash interest in respect of outstanding Securities and all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligations, shall be allocated by the Trustee among such of the Holders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as provided herein or, in respect of payments not made on account of Securities, as designated by the Person making payment when the payment is made.

(b)

After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee may, and upon the direction of the Required Holders, shall, apply all cash payments in respect of any Obligations and all proceeds of the Collateral, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, (i) first, ratably to pay the Obligations in respect of any fees, expense reimbursements, indemnities and other amounts then due to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent until paid in full; (ii) second, ratably to pay interest due in respect of the Securities until paid in full; (iii) third, ratably to pay principal of the Securities (or, to the extent such Obligations are contingent, to provide cash collateral in respect of such Obligations) until paid in full; and (iv) fourth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations then due and payable.

(c)

In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.12 and other provisions contained in any other Note Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that both such priority provisions in such documents shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other.

SECTION 2.13.

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

SECTION 2.14.

Optional Redemption of Securities.

(a)

 Optional Redemption of Securities.  On or after the Issue Date, the Issuers may redeem the Securities, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the Holders and the Trustee, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount thereof) equal to 110.0% of the principal amount of the Securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the Redemption Date.

(b)

Applicability of Article.  Redemption of Securities at the election of the Issuers or otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made in accordance with this Section.

(c)

Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.  The election of the Issuers to redeem any Securities pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall be evidenced by board resolutions of the Issuers.  In case of any redemption at the election of the Issuers, the Issuers shall, upon not later than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Issuers (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and shall deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable selection of the Securities to be redeemed pursuant to this Indenture.  Any such notice may be cancelled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect.

(d)

 Notice of Redemption.  Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided for in this Indenture not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed.  At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee shall give notice of redemption in the Issuers’ names and at the Issuers’ expense; provided, however, that the Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice at the Issuers’ expense and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the following items.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(1)

the Redemption Date,

(2)

the amount of accrued interest to the Redemption Date payable as provided below, if any,

(3)

that on the Redemption Date the redemption price (and accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date payable as provided below) will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed, and, unless the Issuers default in making the redemption payment, that interest on Securities called for redemption will cease to accrue on and after said date,



23






(4)

the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price and accrued interest, if any,

(5)

the name and address of the Paying Agent,

(6)

that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price, and

(7)

the CUSIP, Common Code and ISIN numbers, if applicable, and that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP, Common Code and ISIN numbers, if applicable, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities.

(e)

Deposit of Redemption Price.  Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Issuers or any of the Issuers’ Subsidiaries are acting as their own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in this Indenture) an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date, other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption that are beneficially owned by the Issuers and have been delivered by the Issuers to the Trustee for cancellation.

(f)

Securities Payable on Redemption Date.  Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities or portions of Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified (together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the Issuers shall default in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest and the only right of the Holders thereof will be to receive payment of the redemption price and, subject to the next sentence, unpaid interest on such Securities to the Redemption Date.  Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Issuers at the redemption price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date.

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the unpaid principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Securities.

SECTION 2.15.

Mandatory Prepayment of Securities; Offers to Purchase Securities

(a)

On the 35th day (or the next succeeding Business Day if the 35th day is not a Business Day) after the end of each Fiscal Quarter, the Issuers shall make principal payments on the Securities, commencing with the Fiscal Quarter ending March 31, 2014, in an aggregate amount equal to the ECF Percentage of the Excess Cash Flow (if any) of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries for such quarterly period; provided, that, the Issuers may, in their sole discretion, reduce the amount of such principal payments, but not in excess of 50% of any such principal amount required to be repaid, by the net amount paid to one or more Holders for the acquisition of their Securities by bid in the open market in such Fiscal Quarter and the 35 days thereafter (for the avoidance of doubt, any such net amounts may only reduce the amount of such principal payments in a single Fiscal Quarter); provided, further, that, so long as no Issuer has acquired any Securities by bid in the open market during such period, the amount of any such principal payments shall be reduced by an amount, if any, necessary to avoid violating Section 3.3(a), but the Issuers shall make principal payments equal to the amount of any such reduction within 35 days (or the next succeeding Business Day if the 35th day is not a Business Day) after the end of the immediately succeeding Fiscal Quarter (or the next subsequent Fiscal Quarter) to the extent such payment would not cause a violation of Section 3.3(a).  Such principal repayments from Excess Cash Flow shall be paid in cash equal to 110% (or, for the first $25,000,000 of principal amount repaid during the first year after the Issue Date, 105%) of the principal amount repaid plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the date of repayment.  The Issuers will provide written notice to the Trustee describing the amount of any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 2.15(a) no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the date any payment is required to be made pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b)

Upon the occurrence of any Change of Control, each Holder of Securities will have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Securities pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price to be paid in cash equal to 110.0% of the unpaid aggregate principal amount thereof plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”), to the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Purchase Date”).  If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who validly tender Securities pursuant to the Change of Control Offer in respect of such Interest Payment Date.



24






Within thirty days following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall provide a notice to the Holders and the Trustee.  The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer, shall state, among other things:

(i)

that a Change of Control has occurred and a Change of Control Offer is being made as provided for herein, that each Holder has the right to require the Issuers to purchase such Holder’s Securities at the Change of Control Purchase Price, and that, although Holders are not required to tender their Securities, all Securities that are validly tendered shall be accepted for payment;

(ii)

the circumstances giving rise to the Change of Control;

(iii)

the Change of Control Purchase Price and the Change of Control Payment Date, which will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days after the date such notice is mailed;

(iv)

unless the Issuers default in making such payment, any Security accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer (and duly paid for on the Change of Control Payment Date) shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date;

(v)

that any Securities (or portions thereof) not validly tendered shall continue to accrue interest;

(vi)

that any Holder electing to have a Security purchased pursuant to any Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender the Securities, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Security completed, or transfer by book entry transfer, to the Issuers, a depositary, if appointed by the Issuers, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three (3) Business Days before the Change of Control Payment Date;

(vii)

that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuers, the depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receive, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Security purchased;

(viii)

the instructions and any other information necessary to enable Holders to tender their Securities (or portions thereof) and have such Securities (or portions thereof) purchased pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

(ix)

that Holders whose Securities are being purchased only in part will be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities; provided that such new Security must be equal to $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1.00 in addition thereto.

A Holder of a Global Security may exercise its option to elect for the purchase of its Global Security pursuant to a Change of Control Offer through the facilities of the DTC subject to its rules and regulations.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful, (1) accept for payment all Securities or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Securities or portions thereof so tendered and (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions thereof being repurchased by the Issuers.  The Paying Agent shall promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Change of Control Payment Date) mail to each Holder of Securities so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Securities, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unrepurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Security shall be in a principal amount of $1,000 or integral multiples of $1.00 in addition thereto.

Upon surrender and cancellation of a Definitive Security that is purchased in part pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, the Issuers shall promptly issue and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to the surrendering Holder of such Definitive Security, a new Definitive Security equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of such surrendered Definitive Security; provided that each such new Definitive Security shall be in a principal amount of $1,000 or integral multiples of $1.00 in addition thereto.  Upon surrender of a Global Security that is purchased in part pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, the Paying Agent shall forward such Global Security to the Trustee who shall make a notation on Schedule of Exchanges of Interests thereof to reduce the principal amount of such Global Security to an amount equal to the unpurchased portion of such Global Security, as provided in Section 2.6 hereof.  The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on the Change of Control Payment Date.  For purposes of this Section 2.15(b), the Trustee shall act as the Paying Agent.


25






Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.15(b), the Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon 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 2.15(b) hereof and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

(c)

Within 30 days of the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Issuer will be required to make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Securities (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase in accordance with Section 2.15(e) the maximum principal amount of Securities that may be purchased out of such Net Cash Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to (i) 110% of their principal amount if the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale or a series of related Asset Sales equals or exceeds $25,000,000, which shall be paid to the Holders, and (ii) 100% of their principal amount if the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale is less than $25,000,000, which shall be paid to the Holders, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture).  To the extent that any Net Cash Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers may use such Net Cash Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture.  If the aggregate principal amount of Securities tendered pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer and surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Net Cash Proceeds allocated for the Securities (the “Offer Amount”), the Securities to be purchased shall be selected, if listed on any securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal securities exchange on which the Securities are listed or by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the procedures of DTC.

(d)

In the event of an Event of Loss with respect to any Collateral, the Issuers or the affected Guarantor, as the case may be, will apply the Net Loss Proceeds from such Event of Loss, within 180 days after receipt, to the rebuilding, repair, replacement or construction of improvements to the affected property (the “Subject Property”); provided, that if during such 180-day period an Obligor enters into a definitive agreement committing it to apply such Net Loss Proceeds in accordance with the requirements of this clause (d) or if the application of such Net Loss Proceeds is part of a project authorized by the Board of Directors of FFN in good faith that will take longer than 180 days (but in no event longer than 270 days in the aggregate) to complete, and such project has begun, such 180-day period will be extended with respect to the amount of Net Loss Proceeds so committed until required to be paid in accordance with  such agreement (or, if earlier, until termination of such agreement) or until completion of such project.  Pending the final application of Net Loss Proceeds, the Obligors shall deposit such Net Loss Proceeds in the Collateral Account.

Any Net Loss Proceeds from an Event of Loss in excess of $1,000,000 that are not applied or invested as provided in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph and within the time specified in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph will be deemed to constitute “Excess Loss Proceeds.”  The Issuers will make an offer to all Holders (a “Loss Proceeds Offer”) to purchase in accordance with Section 2.15(e) the maximum principal amount of Securities that may be purchased out of such Excess Loss Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture).

the instructions and any other information necessary to enable Holders to tender their Securities (or portions thereof) and have such Securities (or portions thereof) purchased pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer or the Loss Proceeds Offer; and

SECTION 2.16.

Additional Amounts.

(a)

All payments that the Issuers make under or with respect to the Securities or that the Guarantors make under or with respect to the Guaranties shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge (including, without limitation, penalties, interest and other similar liabilities related thereto) of whatever nature (collectively, “Taxes”) imposed or levied by or on behalf of (1) any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having power to tax, (2) any jurisdiction from or through which payment on the Securities or the relevant Guaranty is made on behalf of the Issuers or any Guarantor, or any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, or (3) any other jurisdiction in which the Issuers or any Guarantor is organized or resident, or any political or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (each of clauses (1), (2) and (3), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the Issuers or such Guarantor, as the case may be, is required to withhold or deduct Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration of law. If the Issuers or a Guarantor is required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from any payment made under or with respect to the Securities, the Issuers or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall, subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 2.16(b), pay additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount received by each Holder of the Securities after such withholding or deduction (including withholding or deduction attributable to Additional Amounts payable hereunder) shall not be less than the amount the Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted.

(b)

Neither the Issuers nor any Guarantor will, however, be required to pay Additional Amounts to a Holder or beneficial owner of a Security:

(1)

to the extent the Taxes giving rise to such Additional Amounts would not have been imposed but for the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (other than the acquisition, ownership, holding or disposition of a Security or by reason of the receipt of payments thereunder or under any Guaranty or the exercise or enforcement of rights under any Securities or this Indenture or under any Guaranty);

(2)

to the extent the Taxes giving rise to such Additional Amounts would not have been imposed but for the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of Securities, following the Issuers’ written request addressed to the Holder, to the extent such Holder or beneficial owner is legally entitled to do so, to comply with any certification, identification, information or other reporting requirements, whether required by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, Taxes imposed by the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including, without limitation, a certification that the Holder or beneficial owner is not resident in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction);

(3)

with respect to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property tax or any similar Taxes (other than stamp, issue, registration, court, documentation, excise or other similar Taxes referred to in Section 2.16(f));

(4)

if such Holder is a fiduciary or partnership or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment and the Taxes giving rise to such Additional Amounts would not have been imposed on such payment had such Holder been the beneficiary, partner or sole beneficial owner, as the case may be, of such Security (but only if there is no material cost or expense associated with transferring such Security to such beneficiary, partner or sole beneficial owner and no restriction on such transfer that is outside the control of such beneficiary, partner or sole beneficial owner);

(5)

with respect to any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments on, or in respect of, the applicable Security or Guaranty;

(6)

with respect to any Taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Holder or beneficial owner at the time such Holder becomes a party to this Indenture, except to the extent that such Holder’s transferor or assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive Additional Amounts with respect to such Taxes pursuant to Section 2.16(a); and

(7)

with respect to any combination of the items listed above.

(c)

The Issuers and the Guarantors will (1) make such withholding or deduction required by applicable law and (2) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law.  The Issuers and the Guarantors will provide to the Trustee either a certified copy of tax receipts evidencing such payment or, if such tax receipts are not reasonably available to the Issuers or such Guarantor, such other documentation that provides reasonable evidence of such payment by the Issuers or such Guarantor.



29






(d)

At least 30 calendar days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Securities is due and payable, if the Issuers or the Guarantors shall be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to the date on which payment under or with respect to the Securities is due and payable, in which case it shall be promptly thereafter), the Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Additional Amounts shall be payable and the amounts so payable and shall set forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall promptly publish a notice in accordance with Section 11.2 stating that such Additional Amounts will be payable and describing the obligation to pay such amounts.

(e)

The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and the Holders of Securities, and, upon written request of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities, reimburse the Trustee or such Holder for the amount of (1) any Taxes levied or imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction and payable by the Trustee or such Holder in connection with payments made under or with respect to the Securities held by such Holder or any Guaranties; and (2) any Taxes levied or imposed with respect to any reimbursement under the foregoing clause (1) or this clause (2), so that the net amount received by the Trustee or such Holder after such reimbursement shall not be less than the net amount the Trustee or such Holder would have received if the Taxes giving rise to the reimbursement described in clauses (1) and/or (2) had not been imposed; provided, however, that the indemnification obligation provided for in this Section 2.16(e) shall not extend to Taxes imposed for which the eligible Holder of the Securities would not have been eligible to receive payment of Additional Amounts hereunder or to the extent such Holder received Additional Amounts with respect to such payments.

(f)

The Issuers and the Guarantors shall pay and jointly and severally shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and the Holders of Securities, and upon written request of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities, reimburse the Trustee or such Holder for the amount of any present or future stamp, issue, registration, court, documentation, excise or other similar taxes, charges and duties, including interest and penalties with respect thereto, imposed by any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in respect of the execution, issue, registration or delivery of the Securities or any Guaranties or any other document or instrument referred to thereunder and any such taxes, charges or duties imposed by any jurisdiction as a result of, or in connection with, the enforcement of the Securities or any Guaranty and/or any other such document or instrument.

The provisions of this Section 2.16 shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture and will apply mutatis mutandis to any successor Person to the Issuers or any Guarantor and to any jurisdiction in which such successor is organized or is otherwise resident for tax purposes or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by such successor or its respective agents. Whenever this Indenture refers to, in any context, the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Security, such reference includes the payment of Additional Amounts or indemnification payments as described hereunder, if applicable.

SECTION 2.17.

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

SECTION 2.18.

The Issuers and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither the Issuers nor any ERISA Affiliate have incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code relating to employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any such liability by the Issuers or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of the Issuers or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax provisions or to Section 436(f)(1) or 412 of the Internal Revenue Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be material individually or in the aggregate.



41






(2)

The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of the end of such Plan’s most recently ended plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities.  The term “benefit liabilities” has the meaning specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have the meaning specified in section 3 of ERISA.

(3)

The Issuers and their ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal liabilities (and are not subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities) under section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that individually or in the aggregate are material.

(4)

The expected post-retirement benefit obligation (determined as of the last day of the Issuers’ most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 106, without regard to liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code) of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries is not material.

(5)

The execution and delivery of this Indenture and the issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder will not involve any transaction that is subject to the prohibitions of section 406 of ERISA or in connection with which a tax could be imposed pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A) through (D) of the Internal Revenue Code.

(6)

Each Obligor is not presently and since December 31, 2012 has not been a party to, or bound by, any collective bargaining agreement or union contract with respect to employees.  There are no pending or, to the knowledge of the Obligors, threatened representation questions respecting any employees.  The Obligors are neither involved in nor, to the knowledge of the Obligors, threatened with, any labor dispute, arbitration or lawsuit that is material in nature and relates to labor and employment matters involving employees.  There are no pending or, to the knowledge of the Obligors, threatened labor organizing activities, whether within or without the United States.

(7)

The Obligors are in compliance in all material respects with all material applicable international, federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations respecting employment, classification of employees, employment practices, terms and conditions of employment, wages, hours and withholding, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, and payment of all required amounts (including, without limitation, income and employment taxes).

(8)

Except as set on Schedule 4.1(g), the Obligors do not have any material liability (and to the knowledge of the Obligors, there is no basis for any present or future action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand against it giving rise to any material liability) arising out of any discrimination against or harassment of employees or prospective employees based on race, sex, religion, ethnicity, sexual preference or handicap or other physical or mental impairment or disability.

SECTION 5.2.

Acceleration.  If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (f) or (g) of Section 5.1) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Issuers, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities by notice to the Issuers and the Trustee, may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, the Applicable Prepayment Premium and any Additional Amounts and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Securities to be due and payable.  Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable immediately.



50






If an Event of Default described in clause (f) or (g) of Section 5.1 occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.  Holders of the Securities may not enforce this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Securities except as provided in this Indenture.  In the event of a declaration of acceleration because an Event of Default set forth in clause (e) of Section 5.1 has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the event of default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (e) of Section 5.1 shall be remedied or cured or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 30 days after such event of default; provided that no judgment or decree for the payment of the money due on Securities has been obtained by the Trustee as provided in this Indenture.

If the Obligations are accelerated for any reason, including, without limitation, because of default, sale, transfer or encumbrance (including that by operation of law or otherwise), the Applicable Prepayment Premium and Additional Amounts and any unamortized discount on the Securities will also be due and payable as though said indebtedness was voluntarily prepaid and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Holder’s lost profits as a result thereof.  Any Applicable Prepayment Premium and Additional Amounts and unamortized discount on the Securities payable above shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as the result of the early termination and the Issuers agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing.  The Applicable Prepayment Premium and Additional Amounts and any unamortized discount on the Securities shall also be payable in the event the Obligations (and/or this Indenture or the Securities evidencing the Obligations) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means.  THE ISSUERS EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW WHICH PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING APPLICABLE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM AND ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS AND ANY UNAMORTIZED DISCOUNT ON THE SECURITIES IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION.  The Issuers expressly agree that: (A) the Applicable Prepayment Premium and Additional Amounts and any discount on the Securities provided for herein is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Applicable Prepayment Premium and Additional Amounts and any unamortized discount on the Securities shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Holders and the Issuers giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium and Additional Amounts and any unamortized discount on the Securities; and (D) the Issuers shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph.  The Issuers expressly acknowledge that their agreement to pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium and Additional Amounts and any unamortized discount on the Securities to the Holders as herein described is a material inducement to the Holders to purchase the Securities.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Issuers and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

(1)

The Issuers have paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

(A)

the principal of any Securities which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration (including any Securities required to have been purchased on a Change of Control Payment Date or a Purchase Date pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, an Offer to Purchase or a Loss Proceeds Offer, as applicable, made by the Issuers) and Additional Amounts, if any, and the Applicable Prepayment Premium and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, any interest thereon at the rate provided therefor in the Securities;

(B)

to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate provided therefor in the Securities, and all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amount due under Section 6.7; and

(2)

all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of or interest on, the Notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.5.

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

SECTION 5.3.

Other Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities, this Indenture, the Guaranty or the Security Documents.



51






The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.  A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.  No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy.  All available remedies are cumulative.

SECTION 5.4.

No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc.  No course of dealing and no delay on the part of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder of any Security in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies.  No right, power or remedy conferred by this Indenture or by any Security upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise, it being understood that all rights and remedies shall be exercised by the Trustee as instructed pursuant to this Indenture.

SECTION 5.5.

Waiver of Past Defaults.  Subject to Section 5.2, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities by notice to the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuers, but the applicable waiver or rescission shall be effective when the notice is given to the Trustee) may (a) waive, by their consent (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities), an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences except (i) a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on a Security or (ii) a Default or Event of Default in respect of a provision that under Section 8.2 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected and (b) rescind any acceleration with respect to the Securities and its consequences if (1) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.  When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequent right.

SECTION 5.6.

Control by Majority.  The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities 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.  However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents or, subject to Section 6.1 and Section 6.2, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.  Prior to taking any such action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 5.7.

Limitation on Suits.  Subject to Section 5.8, a Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless:

(a)

such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing;

(b)

Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities have requested that the Trustee pursue the remedy;

(c)

such Holders have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense;

(d)

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

(e)

the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities have not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request during such 60-day period.

A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder, except that no Holder shall have the right to institute any such suit, if and to the extent that the institution or prosecution thereof or the entry of judgment therein would under applicable law result in the surrender, impairment, waiver, or loss of the Liens of the Security Documents upon any property or assets subject to the Liens.


52






SECTION 5.8.

Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 5.7), the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium (if any), or interest on the Securities held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in the Securities, 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, except that no Holder shall have the right to institute any such suit, if and to the extent that the institution or prosecution thereof or the entry of judgment therein would under applicable law result in the surrender, impairment, waiver, or loss of the Liens of the Security Documents upon any property or assets subject to the Liens.

SECTION 5.9.

Collection Suit by Trustee.  If an Event of Default specified in clause (a) of Section 5.1 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuers for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 6.7.

SECTION 5.10.

Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.  The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers, their Subsidiaries or their respective creditors or properties and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may be entitled and empowered to participate as a member of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.7.

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 5.11.

Priorities.

(a)

If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article V, or pursuant to the foreclosure or other remedial provisions contained in the Security Documents (including any money or property deposited into any Collateral Account in connection therewith), it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST:  to the Trustee for fees and expenses incurred under this Indenture and any Note Document and the Collateral Agent for fees and expenses incurred under the Security Documents;

SECOND:  to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, in accordance with the amounts then owing to the Holders; and

THIRD:  to the Issuers.

(b)

The Trustee may fix a Record Date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section.  At least 15 days before such Record Date, the Issuers shall mail to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the Record Date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

SECTION 5.12.

Undertaking for Costs.  In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, 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 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by the Issuers, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 5.8 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities.

ARTICLE VI

TRUSTEE

SECTION 6.1.

Duties of Trustee.

 ii)

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs; provided that the Trustee and the Collateral Agent will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents or at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered the Trustee or the Collateral Agent indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to each of them in their sole discretion against loss, liability or expense.

(b)

Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(1)

the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(2)

in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates, opinions or orders furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents, as applicable.  However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents, as the case may be (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

(c)

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

(1)

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

(2)

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

(3)

the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 5.6 or Section 6.12; and

(4)

No provision of this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(d)

Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section.

(e)

The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuers.

(f)

Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law or the Security Documents.

Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the TIA to the extent required.

(h)

Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuers shall be sufficient if signed by an Authorized Officer of each Issuer.



54






SECTION 6.2.

Rights of Trustee.  Subject to Section 6.1:

(a)

The Trustee may conclusively rely on any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person.  The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.  The Trustee shall receive and retain financial reports and statements of the Issuers as provided herein, but shall have no duty to review or analyze such reports or statements to determine compliance with covenants or other obligations of the Issuers.

(b)

Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate and/or an Opinion of Counsel.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

(c)

The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

(d)

The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers, unless the Trustee’s conduct constitutes willful misconduct or negligence.

(e)

The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or Opinion of Counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder or under the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(f)

The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references such Default, the Securities and this Indenture.

(g)

The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(h)

The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby.

(i)

The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any fact or matter unless such fact or matter is known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee.

(j)

Whenever in the administration of this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder or thereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may request and in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate.

(k)

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

(l)

The permissive rights, powers and authorizations of the Trustee set forth herein shall not be construed as duties.

SECTION 6.3.

Individual Rights of Trustee.  The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuers, Guarantors or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.  Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights.  However, the Trustee must comply with Section 6.10 and Section 6.11.  In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions with the Issuers; provided, however, that if the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest under the TIA, the Trustee must (i) eliminate such conflict within 90 days of acquiring such conflicting interest or (ii) resign.



55






SECTION 6.4.

Trustee’s Disclaimer.  The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Guaranty, the Security Documents, the Securities, or any other Note Documents, shall not be accountable for the Issuers’ use of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities, shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee or any money paid to the Issuers pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuers in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.  

SECTION 6.5.

Notice of Defaults.  If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if a Trust Officer has actual knowledge thereof (pursuant to Section 6.2(f)), the Trustee shall mail by first class mail to each Holder at the address set forth in the Securities Register notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it is actually known to a Trust Officer.  Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium (if any), Additional Amounts or interest on any Security (including payments pursuant to the optional redemption or required repurchase provisions of such Security), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

SECTION 6.6.

Reports by Trustee to Holders.  Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning May 15, 2014, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such May 15 that complies with TIA § 313(a) if and to the extent required thereby.  The Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b) and TIA § 313(c) to the extent required.

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Securities are listed.  The Issuers agree to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof and the Trustee shall comply with TIA § 313(d) to the extent required.

SECTION 6.7.

Compensation and Indemnity.  The Issuers shall jointly and severally pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services hereunder and under the Securities, the Guaranty and the Security Documents as the Issuers and the Collateral Agent shall from time to time agree in writing.  The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  The Issuers shall jointly and severally reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including, but not limited to, costs of collection, costs of preparing reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders.  Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts.  The Issuers shall jointly and severally indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability, damages, claims or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it without willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith on its part in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder and under the Securities, the Guaranty and the Security Documents, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this Section 6.7), the Securities, the Guaranty and the Security Documents and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuers or otherwise).  The Trustee shall notify the Issuers promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity of which it has received written notice.  Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers of their obligations hereunder.  The Issuers may defend the claim and the Trustee shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Issuers’ expense in the defense.  The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuers shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel; provided that the Issuers shall not be required to pay the fees and expenses of such separate counsel if they assume the Trustee’s defense, and, in the reasonable judgment of outside counsel to the Trustee, there is no conflict of interest between the Issuers and the Trustee in connection with such defense and such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

To secure the Issuers’ payment obligations in this Section 6.7, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities.  Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.  The Trustee’s right to receive payment of any amounts due under this Section 6.7 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or Indebtedness of the Issuers.

The Issuers’ payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture or any resignation or removal of the Trustee hereunder.  Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in clauses (f) or (g) of Section 5.1, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 6.8.

Replacement of Trustee or Collateral Agent.  The Trustee or the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuers in writing.  The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may remove the Trustee or the Collateral Agent by so notifying the removed Trustee or Collateral Agent in writing and may appoint a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent with, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuers’ written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.  The Issuers shall remove the Trustee if:



56






(a)

the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.10 hereof;

(b)

the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(c)

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

(d)

the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

(i) If the Trustee or the Collateral Agent resigns or the Trustee or the Collateral Agent is removed by the Issuers or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities, the Holders may appoint a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent and if such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent (with, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuers’ written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), or (ii) if a vacancy exists in the office of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent for any reason (the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent) and the Holders fail to promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent (with, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuers’ written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), the Issuers shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent.

A successor Trustee or Collateral Agent shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent and to the Issuers.  Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent shall become effective, and the successor Trustee or Collateral Agent shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee or Collateral Agent under this Indenture.  The successor Trustee or Collateral Agent shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders.  The retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee or Collateral Agent to the successor Trustee or Collateral Agent, subject to the lien provided for in Section 6.7, and execute any documents reasonably requested by the successor Trustee or Collateral Agent or the Required Holders with respect to the Security Documents and the Collateral.

If a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, Collateral Agent or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition, at the Issuers’ expense, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.10, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided in TIA § 310(b), any Holder, who has been a bona fide holder of a Security for at least six months, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8, the Issuers’ obligations under Section 6.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 6.9.

Successor Trustee by Merger.  If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; provided that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall only apply to its successor or successors by merger, consolidation or conversion.

SECTION 6.10.

Eligibility; Disqualification.  This Indenture shall always have a Trustee that satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5) in every respect to the extent required.  The Trustee (together with its corporate parent that wholly owns the Trustee) shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.  The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b) to the extent required; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuers are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met.

SECTION 6.11.

Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuers.  The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a) to the extent required, excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b).  A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent required.



57






SECTION 6.12.

Trustee’s Application for Instruction from the Issuers.  Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Issuers may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than three Business Days after the date any Authorized Officer of the Issuers actually receives such application, unless any such Authorized Officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

SECTION 6.13.

Separate Trustee and Collateral Agent.  It is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as trustee or collateral agent in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Indenture, and in particular in case of the enforcement thereof on default, or in the case the Trustee or Collateral Agent deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee or Collateral Agent or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted or take any action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that the Trustee or Collateral Agent appoint an individual or institution as a separate trustee, separate collateral agent or co-trustee or co-collateral agent. The following provisions of this Section are adopted to these ends.

In the event that the Trustee or Collateral Agent appoints an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee or co-collateral agent, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate or co-trustee or co-collateral agent but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate or co-trustee or co-collateral agent to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and only to the extent that the Trustee or Collateral Agent by the laws of any jurisdiction is incapable of exercising such powers, rights and remedies and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or co-trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.  The exercise of any such remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest or lien by a co-trustee or co-collateral agent shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture and the Security Documents to the extent applicable.

Every separate and co-trustee or co-collateral agent shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

(a)

all rights and powers, conferred or imposed upon the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be conferred or imposed upon and may be exercised or performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee; and

(b)

no trustee or collateral agent hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder.

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee or Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate and co-trustees or co-collateral agents, as effectively as if given to each of them.  Every instrument appointing any separate or co-trustee or co-collateral agent shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article.  Any separate or co-trustee or co-collateral agent may at any time appoint the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate or co-trustee or co-collateral agent shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee or collateral agent, as applicable.

Discharge of Liability on Securities; Defeasance.

iii)

58





discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and any Additional Amounts and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; (ii) (1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (except as a result of obtaining the funds to finance the deposit or funds to effect such a discharge) or shall occur as a result of such deposit and (2) such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Issuers or any Guarantor are a party or by which the Issuers or any Guarantor are bound (other than this Indenture and the Securities); (iii) the Issuers or any Guarantor have paid or caused to be paid all sums payable under this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty and the Security Documents (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which a claim has not yet been asserted); and (iv) the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of such Securities at maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be, then the Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and release of all Liens on the Collateral with respect to the Securities on demand of the Issuers (accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent specified herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and release of Liens on Collateral have been complied with) and at the cost and expense of the Issuers.  If U.S. Government Obligations shall have been deposited in connection with such satisfaction and discharge, then as a further condition to such satisfaction and discharge, the Trustee shall have received a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants to the effect set forth in Section 7.2(b).

(b)

Subject to Section 7.1(c) and Section 7.2, the Issuers at any time may terminate (i) all their obligations under the Securities, this Indenture and the Security Documents (including all Liens on the Collateral) (“Legal Defeasance Option”), and after giving effect to such legal defeasance, any omission to comply with such obligations shall no longer constitute a Default or Event of Default or (ii) their obligations under Section 2.15(b), Section 3.1(b) (other than clauses (6) and (7) therein), Section 3.1(d)(ii), Section 3.1(e), Section 3.1(f), Section 3.1(g), Section 3.1(h), Section 3.1(i), Section 3.1(k), Section 3.1(l), Section 3.1(m), Section 3.1(n), Section 3.1(p), Section 3.1(q), Section 3.1(r), Section 3.2(a), Section 3.2(b), Section 3.2(c) (but excluding any wind-ups, liquidations, dissolutions, mergers, consolidations or amalgamations involving any Issuer), Section 3.2(d), Section 3.2(e), Section 3.2(f), Section 3.2(g), Section 3.2(h), Section 3.2(j), Section 3.2(l), Section 3.2(m), Section 3.2(n), Section 3.2(o), Section 3.2(p), Section 3.2(q), Section 3.2(r), Section 3.3 and Section 10.6 and the Issuers 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 with such covenants shall no longer constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.1(c) and Section 5.1(d) (to the extent applicable to such defeased covenants), Section 5.1(e), Section 5.1(h), Section 5.1(j), Section 5.1(l) and Section 5.1(n) and the events specified in such Sections shall no longer constitute an Event of Default (clause (ii) being referred to as the “Covenant Defeasance Option”), but except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, the Securities and the Security Documents shall be unaffected thereby.  The Issuers may exercise their Legal Defeasance Option notwithstanding their prior exercise of their Covenant Defeasance Option.  If the Issuers exercise their Legal Defeasance Option, the Guaranty in effect at such time shall terminate and the Liens on the Collateral shall terminate and shall be released with respect to the Securities.

If the Issuers exercise their Legal Defeasance Option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.  If the Issuers exercise their Covenant Defeasance Option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 2.15(b), Section 3.1(b) (other than clauses (6) and (7) therein), Section 3.1(d)(ii), Section 3.1(e), Section 3.1(f), Section 3.1(g), Section 3.1(h), Section 3.1(i), Section 3.1(k), Section 3.1(l), Section 3.1(m), Section 3.1(n), Section 3.1(p), Section 3.1(q), Section 3.1(r), Section 3.2(a), Section 3.2(b), Section 3.2(c) (but excluding any wind-ups, liquidations, dissolutions, mergers, consolidations or amalgamations involving any Issuer), Section 3.2(d), Section 3.2(e), Section 3.2(f), Section 3.2(g), Section 3.2(h), Section 3.2(j), Section 3.2(l), Section 3.2(m), Section 3.2(n), Section 3.2(o), Section 3.2(p), Section 3.2(q), Section 3.2(r), Section 3.3 and Section 10.6.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request and expense of the Issuers, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Issuers terminate.

(c)

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1(a) and Section 7.1(b) to the extent relating to a legal defeasance, the Issuers’ obligations in Section 2.2, Section 2.3, Section 2.4, Section 2.5, Section 2.6, Section 2.7, Section 2.8, Section 2.9, Section 2.10, Section 3.1(a), Section 3.1(c), Section 3.1(d)(i), Section 3.1(o), Section 5.8, Section 5.10, Section 6.7 and Section 6.8 and in this Article VII shall survive until the Securities have been paid in full.  Thereafter, the Issuers’ obligations in Section 6.7, Section 7.4 and Section 7.5 shall survive.

SECTION 7.2.

59






(a)

the Issuers irrevocably deposit in trust with the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders money in U.S. dollars in an amount, or U.S. Government Obligations, which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or a combination of U.S. dollars or such U.S. Government Obligations, sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(b)

the Issuers deliver to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(c)

no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) or, with respect to Events of Default under Section 5.1(f) and Section 5.1(g), on the later of (i) a year and a day after such date of deposit or (ii) the day ending on the day following the expiration of the longest preference period under any bankruptcy law applicable to the Issuers in respect of such deposit;

(d)

such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default under, this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty, the Security Documents or any other agreement or instrument to which the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries is bound (other than this Indenture and the Securities);

(e)

the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) to the effect that (A) the Securities and (B) assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Issuers between the date of deposit and the 91st day following the deposit and that no Holder is an insider of the Issuers, after a year and a day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ right generally;

(f)

the Issuers deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not constitute, or is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940;

(g)

the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) stating that (i) the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and 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 deposit and defeasance had not occurred and (ii) in the case of the Legal Defeasance Option, such Opinion of Counsel must be based on a ruling by the Internal Revenue Service or other change in the applicable U.S. law;

(h)

if the Securities are to be redeemed prior to Stated Maturity, notice of such redemption shall have been duly given pursuant to this Indenture or provision therefor satisfactory to the Trustee shall have been made; and

(i)

the Issuers deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein have been complied with relating to either the Legal Defeasance Option or Covenant Defeasance Option, as the case may be, as contemplated by this Article VII.

SECTION 7.3.

Application of Trust Money.  The Trustee shall hold in trust all money or U.S. Government Obligations (including proceeds thereof) deposited with it pursuant to this Article VII.  It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture and the Securities to the Holders of all sums due in respect of the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Securities.

SECTION 7.4.

Repayment to the Issuers.  The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Issuers upon request any excess money, U.S. Government Obligations or securities held by them upon payment of all the Obligations.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuers upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Securities that remains unclaimed by the Holders thereof for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuers for payment as unsecured general creditors and the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such money.


60






SECTION 7.5.

Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations.  The Issuers shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.

SECTION 7.6.

Reinstatement.  If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VII 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 obligations of the Issuers and each Guarantor under this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty, the Security Documents and the other Note Documents shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VII until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VII; provided, however, that, if the Issuers or the Guarantors have made any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuers or Guarantors, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

The Trustee’s rights under this Article VII shall survive termination of this Indenture.

ARTICLE VIII

61






SECTION 8.2.

With Consent of Holders.

(a)

Except as provided in Section 8.1, no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty and the Security Documents, and no consent to any departure by any Obligor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by (a) the Issuers, (b) the Required Holders or by the Trustee with the consent of the Required Holders and (c) with respect to Article IX, the Guarantors, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that, no amendment, waiver or consent shall:

(vi)  (A) make any change to any provisions of this Indenture described under Section 2.16 hereof that adversely affects the rights of any Holder of the Securities or (B) amend the terms of the Securities or this Indenture in a way that would result in a loss of an exemption from any of the Taxes described thereunder or an exemption from any obligation to withhold or deduct Taxes so described thereunder unless the Issuers and the Guarantors agree to pay Additional Amounts (if any) in respect thereof, in each case, without the prior written consent of each Holder affected thereby; and

(vii)  amend the last sentence of Section 2.1(b)(iv) as to the wire transfer election or the second sentence of Section 2.1(f)(1), without in each case the written consent of the Required Holders.

(b)

In connection with any amendments, supplements or waivers to be executed by the Trustee based on these provisions, the Issuers shall certify in an Officers’ Certificate that the appropriate Required Holder consent has been obtained under this Indenture.

(c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Trustee, affect the rights or duties of the Trustee (but not in its capacity as a Holder) under this Indenture or the other Note Documents.

SECTION 8.3.

Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.  Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture, the Securities, the Guaranty or the Security Documents shall comply with the TIA, as then in effect, to the extent required.

SECTION 8.4.

Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers.  A consent to an amendment, supplement or a waiver by a Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Security.  Any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective or otherwise in accordance with any related solicitation documents.  After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder unless it makes a change described in any of subclauses (i) through (iv) and subclause (vii) of Section 8.2(a), in that case the amendment, supplement, waiver or other action shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Securities.  An amendment, supplement or waiver shall become effective upon receipt by the Trustee of the requisite number of written consents under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 as applicable.



62






The Issuers may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a Record Date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture.  If a Record Date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such Record Date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such Record Date.  No such consent shall become valid or effective more than 120 days after such Record Date.

SECTION 8.5.

Notation on or Exchange of Securities.  If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee.  The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder.  Alternatively, if the Issuers or the Trustee so determine, the Issuers in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms.  Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

SECTION 8.6.

Trustee to Sign Amendments.  The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article VIII if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.  If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it.  In signing any amendment, supplement or waiver the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the documents required by Section 11.4, indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and shall be provided with, and (subject to Section 6.1 and Section 6.2) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuers and any Guarantors, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 8.3).

ARTICLE IX

GUARANTY

SECTION 9.1.

Guaranty.  Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, each Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, to each Holder of the Securities, to the extent lawful, and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations will rank equally in right of payment with other Indebtedness of such Guarantor, except to the extent such other Indebtedness is subordinate to the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor further agrees (to the extent permitted by law) that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound under this Article IX notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.

Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuers of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment.  Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Guaranteed Obligations.

Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranty herein constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Except as set forth in Section 9.2, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Guaranteed Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuers or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Collateral Agent for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Issuers or the Guarantors; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or (h) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.


63






Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranty herein shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations or such Guarantor is released from the Guaranty upon the merger or the sale of all the Capital Stock or assets of the Guarantor or otherwise, in each case in compliance with Section 9.2 or Article VII.  Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranty herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuers or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuers to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Trustee or the Trustee on behalf of the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law).

Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of the Guaranty herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of this Guaranty.

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

Neither the Issuers nor the Guarantors shall be required to make a notation on the Securities to reflect the Guaranty or any release, termination or discharge thereof and any such notation shall not be a condition to the validity of the Guaranty.

SECTION 9.2.

Limitation on Liability; Termination, Release and Discharge.

(a)

Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under the Guaranty or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under the Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Upon the sale or disposition of a Guarantor (by merger, consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets (other than by lease)) and whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving corporation in such transaction, to a Person which is not one of the Issuers or a Subsidiary, such Guarantor will be automatically released from all its obligations under this Indenture, the Guaranty and the Security Documents to which it is a party, its obligations under the Guaranty will terminate and the Liens, if any, on the Collateral pledged by such Guarantor pursuant to the Security Documents shall be released with respect to the Securities if the sale or other disposition is in compliance with this Indenture, including this Section 9.2.

(b)

Each Guarantor will be deemed released from all its obligations under this Indenture, the Guaranty and the Security Documents to which it is a party, and its obligations under the Guaranty will terminate, upon the legal defeasance of the Securities or upon satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, in each case pursuant to the provisions of Article VII hereof.

SECTION 9.3.

Right of Contribution.  Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made on the obligations under the Guaranty, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the Issuers or any other Guarantor who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment.  The provisions of this Section 9.3 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 9.4.

No Subrogation.  Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by each Guarantor hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder against the Issuers or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Issuers or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder (including, without limitation, under Section 9.3), until all amounts owing to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders by the Issuers on account of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full.  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust



64





for the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Obligations.

SECTION 9.5.

Waiver.  Each Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Article IX, and all notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations and any requirement that the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders exhaust any right or take any action against any Obligor or any other Person or any Collateral.  Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated herein and that the waiver set forth in this Section 9.5 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.  Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Article IX, and acknowledges that this Article IX is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.  Each Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which such Guarantor otherwise may have against the Issuers, the Holders or others, or against Collateral, and that, under the circumstances, the waivers and consents herein given are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law.  If any of the waivers or consents herein are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by law.

SECTION 9.6.

Continuing Guaranty; Assignments.  This Article IX is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the cash payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been made which will continue) and all other amounts payable under this Article IX, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders and their successors, pledgees, transferees and assigns.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Holder may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Indenture to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted such Holder herein or otherwise.

SECTION 9.7.

Liens on Real Property; Other Waivers.  In the event that all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations at any time are secured by any one or more deeds of trust or mortgages creating or granting Liens on any interests in real property, each Guarantor authorizes the Trustee, and at the direction of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at its sole option, without notice or demand and without affecting any Guaranteed Obligations, the enforceability of this Guaranty, or the validity or enforceability of any Liens of any of the Holders on any collateral, to foreclose any or all of such deeds of trust or mortgages by judicial or nonjudicial sale.  Insofar as the Liens created herein secure the obligations of other Persons, (i) each Guarantor expressly waives any defenses to the enforcement of this Guaranty or any Liens created or granted hereby or to the recovery by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders against the Issuers or any other Person liable therefor of any deficiency after a judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale, even though such a foreclosure or sale may impair the subrogation rights of such Guarantor and may preclude such Guarantor from obtaining reimbursement or contribution from any other Person, (ii) each Guarantor expressly waives any defenses or benefits that may be derived from California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 580a, 580b, 580d or 726, or comparable provisions of the laws of any other jurisdiction, and all other suretyship defenses it otherwise might or would have under California law or other applicable law, (iii) each Guarantor expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution and any other rights and defenses that are or may become available to such Guarantor or any other surety by reason of §§ 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code and (iv) each Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders, even though that election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for any Guaranteed Obligations has destroyed such Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of § 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure.  Each Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that such Guarantor may have because the Guaranteed Obligations are secured by real property.  This means, among other things (i) the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders may collect from any Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged to secure the Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) if the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders forecloses on any real property collateral pledged to secure the Guaranteed Obligations (A) the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price and (B) the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders may collect from any Guarantor even if the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right such Guarantor may have to collect from the Issuers or any other Obligor.  This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each Guarantor may have because the Guaranteed Obligations are secured by real property.  These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to any rights or defenses based upon California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 580a, 580b, 580d or 726.  Each Guarantor expressly waives any right to receive notice of any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of any real property or interest therein subject to any such deeds of trust or mortgages and such Guarantor’s failure to receive any such notice shall not impair or affect such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty or any Liens created or granted hereby.

SECTION 9.8.

Condition of Issuers and their Subsidiaries.  Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Trustee and the Holders that such Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from Issuers and their Subsidiaries, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to the businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of each of Issuers and their Subsidiaries and their properties, and each Guarantor now is and hereafter will be completely familiar with the businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries and their properties.  Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders to disclose to any Guarantor any matter, fact or thing related to the businesses, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Issuers or their Subsidiaries or their properties, whether now known or hereafter known by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders during the life of this Indenture.  With respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Holders need not inquire into the powers of the Issuers or any Subsidiaries thereof or the officers or employees acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and all Guaranteed Obligations made or created in good faith reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be secured hereby.

The Issuers will otherwise comply with the provisions of TIA §314(b).  Promptly after the effectiveness of this Indenture the Issuers shall deliver the opinion(s) required by TIA §314(b)(1).  Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Indenture the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent within two months after each anniversary of the Issue Date, an Opinion of Counsel, dated as of such anniversary date, stating either that (i) in the opinion of such counsel, all action has been taken with respect to any filing, re-filing, recording or re-recording with respect to the Collateral as is necessary to maintain the Lien on the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent or (ii) in the opinion of such counsel, that no such action is necessary to maintain such Lien; provided, however, the opinion of counsel need not opine as to Collateral consisting of material Intellectual Property that is registered under the laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States of America unless the Collateral Agent at the direction of the Required Holders has required that the Liens on such material Intellectual Property be perfected under the laws of such foreign jurisdiction pursuant to the terms of the Security and Pledge Agreement  and the Issuers have been requested in writing to furnish such an Opinion of Counsel.

(d)

The Issuers will cause TIA §313(b), relating to reports, and TIA §314(d), relating to the release of property and the substitution therefor of any property to be pledged as Collateral for the Securities and the Guaranties therefor, to be complied with.  Any certificate or opinion required by TIA §314(d) may be made by an Authorized Officer of the Issuers except in cases where TIA §314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person, which Person will be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, the Issuers will not be required to comply with all or any portion of TIA §314(d) if they determine, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms of TIA §314(d) and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA §314(d) is inapplicable to one or a series of released Collateral.

(c)

the Issuers shall, or shall cause the Guarantors to, deliver to the Collateral Agent with respect to each of (x) the Premises owned on the Issue Date and (y) the Premises acquired after the Issue Date, (A) American Land Title Association/American Congress on Surveying and Mapping form surveys (including any updates or affidavits that the title company may reasonably require in connection therewith), (B) local counsel opinions for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Holders, and the Trustee, (C) fixture filings and (D) such other documents, instruments, certificates and agreements as are identified in the closing or annual Opinion of Counsel to the Issuers in order to comply with clauses (1) and (2) above and to perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such covered Premises.

(5)

with the consent of Holders of 66% or more of the outstanding principal amount of the Securities, unless such release involves all or substantially all of the Collateral, in which case such release will require the consent of each Holder affected thereby (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, Securities).



68






(b)

To the extent applicable, the Issuers and each Guarantor will furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, prior to each proposed release of Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents and this Indenture:

Upon compliance by the Issuers or the Guarantors, as the case may be, with the conditions precedent set forth above, and upon delivery by the Issuers or such Guarantor to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such conditions precedent have been complied with, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be authorized to release and reconvey to the Issuers, or the Guarantors, as the case may be, the released Collateral, unless otherwise specified in the Security Documents.

(c)

For purposes of the TIA, the release of any Collateral from the terms of the Security Documents will not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof or affect the Lien of this Indenture or the Security Documents if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents or upon the termination of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.8.

Authorization of Actions to be Taken by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent Under the Security Documents.

(a)

Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, each of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Trustee) may (but is not obligated to), in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to (a) enforce any of its rights or any of the rights of the Holders under the Security Documents and (b) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral in respect of the obligations of the Issuers and the Subsidiaries hereunder and thereunder.  Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have the 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 that may be unlawful or in violation of the Security Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interest 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 security interest hereunder or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders or the Trustee).

(b)

The Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes negligence (or, in the case of the Collateral Agent, gross negligence), bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent (it being understood that this sentence shall not imply that the Trustee or Collateral Agent has any duties, other than those explicitly set forth herein, with regards to the Collateral or Liens in any of the Collateral), for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Issuers to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.  The Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for recording, filing, re-recording or refiling any financing statement, continuation statement, document, instrument or other notice in any public office at any time or times or to otherwise take any action to perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest granted to it under the Security Documents or otherwise for protecting the Collateral against the acts of third parties or for preserving the value of the Collateral.

(3)

an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture to the addition of such Collateral have been complied with, which Opinion of Counsel shall also opine as to the creation and perfection of the Collateral Agent’s or the Trustee’s Lien on such Collateral and as to the due authorization, execution, delivery, validity and enforceability of the Collateral Document being entered into; and

(4)

such financing statements, if any, as the Issuers shall deem necessary to perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Collateral.

(d)

The Trustee or the Collateral Agent, in giving any consent or approval under the Security Documents, shall be entitled to receive, as a condition to such consent or approval, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the action or omission for which consent or approval is to be given does not adversely affect the interests of the Holders or impair the security of the Holders in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents, and the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in giving such consent or approval on the basis of such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel.

SECTION 10.9.

Additional Collateral Agent Terms.

(a)

The Collateral Agent shall only have the duties explicitly set forth herein and in the Security Documents and no duties or responsibilities shall be implied against the Collateral Agent.

(b)

With regards to any action or refusal to act that involves discretion, whether in the exercise of its rights, powers, authorizations or otherwise hereunder or under the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action hereunder or under any of the Security Documents or from the exercise of any power or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received written instructions from the Trustee, or if applicable, the Required Holders, and shall not be liable for any such delay in acting and shall be fully protected in, and shall incur no liability in connection with, acting (or failing to act) pursuant to such instructions.  Subject to Section 6.1 and Section 6.2, in providing such written instructions, the Trustee shall act in accordance with the written direction of Holders (pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Indenture).

(c)

The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the enforcement of the rights of the Holders under the Security Documents.  Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Security Documents to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to be a fiduciary to any Holder or any other party.

(d)

In acting as Collateral Agent or co-Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent and each co-Collateral Agent may (i) rely upon and enforce for its own benefit each and all of the rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and benefits of the Trustee under Article 6 hereof, each of which shall also be deemed to be for the benefit of the Collateral Agent; provided, however, any references to “negligence” shall be deemed to be references to “gross negligence” with respect to the rights, duties, liabilities, indemnities and immunities of the Collateral Agent.

71






In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such eligible and qualified Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

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

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

SECTION 11.5.

(c)

a statement that, in the opinion of such individual, he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not there has been compliance with such covenant or condition; and

(d)

a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such individual, there has been compliance with such covenant or condition.

In giving such Opinion of Counsel, counsel may rely as to factual matters on an Officers’ Certificate or on certificates of public officials.

SECTION 11.6.

SECTION 11.22.

Indemnification.

(a)

General Indemnity.  In addition to each Obligor’s other Obligations under this Indenture, each Obligor agrees to, jointly and severally, defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and each Holder and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively called the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) incurred by such Indemnitees, whether prior to or from and after the Issue Date, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or relating to or in connection with any of the following:  (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution or performance or enforcement of this Indenture, any other Note Document or of any other document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Indenture, (ii) the Trustee’s, the Collateral Agent’s or any Holder’s furnishing of funds to the Issuers under this Indenture or the other Note Documents, (iii) any matter relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Indenture or the other Note Documents or by any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Indenture or the other Note Documents, or (iv) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that the Obligors shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee under this subsection (a) for any Indemnified Matter caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b)

Payment; Survival.  To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 11.22 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, each Obligor shall, jointly and severally, contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.  The indemnities set forth in this Section 11.22 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and discharge of any Liens granted under the Note Documents.



74






SECTION 11.23.

Binding Effect.  This Indenture shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each Obligor and the Trustee, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Obligor, the Trustee and each Holder, and their respective successors and assigns, except the Issuers and each Guarantor shall not have the right to assign their rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Holder.

SECTION 11.24.

Interest.  It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Trustee and each Holder shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it.  Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Note Document would be usurious as to the Trustee or any Holder under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to the Trustee or such Holder notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or any other Note Document or any agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Obligations, it is agreed as follows:  (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to the Trustee or any Holder that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by the Trustee or such Holder under this Indenture or any other Note Document or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Obligations shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, any excess shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by the Trustee or such Holder on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the Trustee or such Holder, as applicable, to the Issuers); and (ii) in the event that the maturity of the Obligations is accelerated by reason of any Event of Default under this Indenture or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to the Trustee or any Holder may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Indenture or otherwise shall be canceled automatically by the Trustee or such Holder, as applicable, as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by the Trustee or such Holder, as applicable, on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the Trustee or such Holder to the Issuers).  All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Trustee or any Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to the Trustee or such Holder, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Securities until payment in full.  If at any time and from time to time (x) the amount of interest payable to the Trustee or any Holder on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to the Trustee or such Holder pursuant to this Section 11.24 and (y) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to the Trustee or such Holder would be less than the amount of interest payable to the Trustee or such Holder computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to the Trustee or such Holder, then the amount of interest payable to the Trustee or such Holder in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to the Trustee or such Holder until the total amount of interest payable to the Trustee or such Holder shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to the Trustee or such Holder if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 11.24.

For purposes of this Section 11.24, the term “applicable law” shall mean that law in effect from time to time and applicable to the loan transaction between the Issuers, on the one hand, and the Trustee and the Holders, on the other, that lawfully permits the charging and collection of the highest permissible, lawful non-usurious rate of interest on such loan transaction and this Indenture, including laws of the State of New York and, to the extent controlling, laws of the United States of America.

In furtherance of the foregoing, each Issuer and each Guarantor covenants (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and each Issuer and each Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

SECTION 11.25.

USA Patriot Act Compliance.  To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Person who opens an account.  For a non-individual Person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, the Trustee will ask for documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity.  The Trustee may also ask to see financial statements, licenses, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation.  Each Obligor agrees to provide all such information and documentation as to themselves as requested by the Trustee to ensure compliance with federal law.

10.

Defeasance

Subject to certain exceptions and conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Issuers at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Securities, the Indenture and the Security Documents if the Issuers deposit with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

FORM OF CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

[Date]

[Name and address]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with the execution of that certain Indenture, dated as of December [__], 2013 by and among Interactive Network, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“INI”), FriendFinder Networks Inc., a Nevada corporation (“FFN”), the guarantors from time to time party thereto (the “Guarantors,” and together with FFN and INI, the “Company”) and certain other parties referenced in the preamble therein (the “Indenture”), the Company is prepared to make available to you and your Representatives (as defined below) certain information which is material non-public, confidential or proprietary in nature (the “Confidential Information”).  In consideration of our furnishing you with the Confidential Information, and as a condition to such disclosure, you agree as follows:

1.

You will keep the Confidential Information confidential and will not disclose the Confidential Information to anyone except to your Representatives under the terms and conditions referred to in this letter agreement (the “Agreement”).

2.

You recognize and acknowledge the competitive value and confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the damage that could result to the Company if any information contained therein is disclosed to a third party.  The Confidential Information will be used by you solely for the purpose of analyzing and evaluating the operations of the Company and for no other purpose.  You will permit your employees, affiliates, officers, directors, partners, members, managers, agents, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”) access to the Confidential Information only to the extent necessary to allow them to assist you in such analysis or evaluation.  Prior to granting such Representatives access to the Confidential Information, you will inform them of its confidential nature and of the terms of this Agreement.  You agree to be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any of your Representatives.  You further agree to reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each employee, affiliate, officer, director, agent, advisor and representative of the Company (collectively, the “Company Representatives”) from any damage, loss or expense incurred as a result of the use of the Confidential Information by you or your Representatives or other recipients contrary to the terms of this Agreement, (i) other than punitive, exemplary or consequential damages or any other damages of any kind or nature in excess of compensatory damages and (ii) except to the extent such damage, loss or expense is due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Company or the Company Representatives.

3.

Unless required by applicable law (in which case you will promptly advise and consult with the Company and its counsel prior to such disclosure to the extent practical), without the prior written consent of the Company and approval of the contents thereof, you will not, and will cause your Representatives not to, disclose to any person any information disclosed to you by the Company for which the Indenture expressly requires the execution of this Agreement and limited to such Confidential Information which you have requested from the Company.

4.

Confidential Information includes (a) information transferred or transmitted in writing, orally, visually, electronically or by any other means, whether prior to, on or after the date hereof, (b) information provided to you by third parties under circumstances where you have an obligation not to disclose that information as required by this Agreement, and (c) any memoranda, reports, analyses, extracts or notes you or your Representatives produce that are based on, reflect or contain any of the Confidential Information (the items referred to in this clause (c) collectively referred to as “Analyses”).  Confidential Information does not include any information that (i) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by you or any of your Representatives in violation of this Agreement, (ii) was in your possession prior to the disclosure of the Confidential Information pursuant to this Agreement and was not otherwise subject to any confidentiality restrictions, and/or (iii) becomes available to you or your Representatives on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or any Company Representative.

5.

If you or your Representatives are requested to disclose any Confidential Information (including, but not limited to, any Analyses) in connection with any legal or administrative proceeding or investigation, you will endeavor to notify the Company immediately in writing of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such a request so that the Company may, in its sole discretion, seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or take steps to resist or narrow the scope of the disclosure sought by such request.  You agree to assist the Company in seeking a protective order or other remedy, if requested by the Company, provided that any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing such assistance shall be paid by the Company.  If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained and, upon the advice of your counsel, disclosure is required, you may make such disclosure without liability under this Agreement, provided that you or your Representatives furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which is legally required to be disclosed, you give the Company notice of the information to be disclosed as far in advance of its disclosure as practicable and you use your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that confidential treatment will be accorded to all such disclosed information.


B-1





6.

As of the Maturity Date (as such term is defined in the Indenture), you and your Representatives will promptly delete, or at your option destroy, all Confidential Information from any computer and backup storage system in which the Confidential Information has been stored and will turn over to the Company, or at your option destroy, (i) all documents and other materials (including without limitation all copies or reproductions of such documents or materials, tapes, floppy disks, backup copies, and other forms of electronic storage media) which constitute, contain or are derived from the Confidential Information, and (ii) all other documents, Analyses, and other materials connected with or arising out of your right to receive such information pursuant to the respective terms and conditions of the Indenture, and no copy thereof will be retained by you or your Representatives; provided, however, that one copy of all materials constituting Confidential Information may be kept for archival purposes only.  Upon the Company’s request, you will deliver to the Company a certificate that you and your Representatives have complied with the requirements of this Paragraph 6. Notwithstanding the return, deletion or destruction of the Confidential Information, you and your Representatives will continue to be bound by your obligations of confidentiality and other obligations under this Agreement.

7.

You acknowledge and agree that the Company would be damaged irreparably if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached.  Accordingly, the Company will be entitled to equitable relief, including, without limitation, an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and its provisions in any action or proceeding instituted in any state court located in the State of New York, in the County of New York or any federal court sitting in the Southern District of New York having jurisdiction over you and the matter, in addition to any other remedy to which we may be entitled, at law or in equity.  Except as expressly provided herein, the rights, obligations and remedies created by this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any other rights, obligations or remedies otherwise available at law or in equity.  Except as expressly provided herein, nothing herein will be considered an election of remedies.

8.

Any action, suit or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement may be brought in any state court located in the State of New York in the County of New York or any federal court sitting in the Southern District of New York, and you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such action, suit or proceeding and irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that you may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding in any such court or that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

9.

This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law principles.  This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by a writing signed by all of the parties.

10.

We may in our sole discretion (a) extend the time for the performance of any of your obligations under this Agreement, and/or (b) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for our benefit contained herein.  Any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in a writing signed by us.

11.

The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof; provided that if any provision of this Agreement, as applied to any party or to any circumstance, is judicially determined not to be enforceable in accordance with its terms, the parties agree that the court judicially making such determination may modify the provision in a manner consistent with its objectives such that it is enforceable, and/or delete specific words or phrases, and in its modified form, such provision will then be enforceable and will be enforced.

12.

You acknowledge that you are aware, and will inform your Representatives, that the securities laws of the United States (as well as stock exchange regulations) prohibit any person who has material, non-public information concerning FFN or a possible transaction involving FFN from purchasing or selling FFN’s securities when in possession of such information and from communicating such information to any other person or entity under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person or entity is likely to purchase or sell such securities in reliance upon such information.

13.

The obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate ninety days after the Maturity Date.

14.

This Agreement, together with the Indenture and the other Note Documents (as such term is defined in the Indenture) constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof.


B-2





15.

No party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other parties, and any such assignment by a party without prior written approval of the other parties will be deemed invalid and not binding on such other parties.

16.

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party, which delivery may be made by exchange of copies of the signature page by facsimile transmission.

Reference is made to the Indenture, dated as of December [__], 2013 (the “Indenture”), made by and among Interactive Network, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and FriendFinder Networks Inc., a Nevada corporation, as issuers (the “Issuers”) of the Securities described therein, each Subsidiary of the FriendFinder Networks, Inc. listed as a “Guarantor” on the signature pages thereto (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”), and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee and Collateral Agent thereunder.  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms, whether directly or indirectly by reference, in the Indenture.

The Issuers have created or acquired [name of entity], a [type of entity] as a new direct or indirect Subsidiary.  Pursuant to Section 10.6 of the Indenture, that new Subsidiary (the “New Obligor”) hereby joins as a party to the Indenture as a Guarantor and Obligor and the other Note Documents to which a Guarantor is party including, without limitation, the Security and Pledge Agreement.

3.

This Joinder Agreement shall be effective as of the date first written above.  Upon the execution of this Joinder Agreement, a copy hereof shall be delivered to the Trustee.

4.

The new Obligor agrees to execute and deliver such other Security Documents, as may be necessary or appropriate to create and ensure the attachment, perfection, priority and enforceability of the Liens on all of its assets provided required by the Note Documents.

5.

Except to the extent that certain matters may be governed by federal law, this Joinder Agreement shall be deemed to have been entered into in the State of New York and shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements executed and to be performed therein by each party hereto.

6.

The existing Obligors each acknowledge this Joinder Agreement, ratify and confirm their obligations under all of the Note Documents, and agree that the provisions of Article IX apply to the New Obligor as a Guarantor.

9.

Except as prohibited by applicable law, New Obligor hereby waives any right that it may have to claim or recover in any dispute arising under this Joinder Agreement or the Indenture any punitive, exemplary, consequential, incidental, indirect, special or speculative damages (including loss of profits).  New Obligor (a) certifies that neither the Trustee, the Collateral Agent nor any of the Holders has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such Person would not, in the event of any such dispute, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers and (b) acknowledges that, in entering into the Note Documents, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders are relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications contained in this Section 9.
