The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

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

(c) The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes, and the Trustee hereby agrees so to initially act.

The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all funds held by it relating to the Notes to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all funds held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for such funds. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all funds held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any Event of Default under Sections 6.01(f) and (g) hereof relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee at least seven (7) Business Days before each Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date or such shorter time as the Trustee may allow, as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. When Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to register their transfer or to exchange them for an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met; provided that any Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the holder thereof. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes.

(b) Global Note Legend. Each Global Note shall bear the following legend unless specifically stated otherwise in the applicable provisions of this Indenture.

“THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06 OF THE INDENTURE, (II) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06(a) OF THE INDENTURE, (III) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.11 OF THE INDENTURE AND (IV) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE COMPANY.

UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR NOTES IN DEFINITIVE FORM, THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY. UNLESS THIS NOTE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”), TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY NOTE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.”

(c) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such increase.

(i) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06 and 9.05 hereof).

(ii) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

(iii) Neither the Registrar nor the Company shall be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the date of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date (including a Regular Record Date) and the next succeeding Payment Date.

(iv) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Note and for all other purposes, in each case regardless of any notice to the contrary.

(v) The Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to enter into a letter of representation with the Depositary in the form provided by the Company and to act in accordance with such letter.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note. If required by the Trustee or the Company, the Holder of such Note shall provide indemnity that is sufficient, in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company, to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer in connection with such replacement. The Company and the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note issued in accordance with this Section 2.07 shall be the valid obligation of the Company, evidencing the same debt as the destroyed, lost or stolen Note, and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

(a) The Notes outstanding at any time shall be the entire principal amount of Notes represented by all of the Global Notes and Definitive Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those subject to reductions in beneficial interests effected by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.06 hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note shall not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note.

(b) If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it shall cease to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

(c) If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it shall cease to be outstanding and interest on it shall cease to accrue.

(d) If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date, a Purchase Date or a maturity date, funds sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes or Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes, as applicable. After preparation of Definitive Notes, the Temporary Note will be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the Temporary Notes.

Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act or other applicable laws) unless by written order, signed by an Officer of the Company, the Company directs them to be returned to it. Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered (at the expense of the Company) to the Company from time to time upon request. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case, at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12.

The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related Payment Date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice at his or her address as it appears in the Security Register that states the special record date, the related Payment Date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

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

The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” and/or “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” and/or “ISIN” numbers in notices of redemption or Offers to 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 Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption or notice of an offer to purchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or notice of an offer to purchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” and/or “ISIN” numbers.

The record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders of Notes entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent or permitted under this Indenture shall be determined as provided for in TIA Section 316(c).

If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date (or such shorter period as allowed by the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (a) the applicable section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (b) the redemption date, (c) the series and principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed and (d) the redemption price.

If less than all of the Notes of a particular series are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes of such series to be redeemed among the Holders of such Notes in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes of such series are listed or, if the Notes of such series are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as may be required by DTC procedures. In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes of such series to be redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes of such series not previously called for redemption.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof (or, if a PIK Note, in denominations of $1.00 and integral multiples of $1.00 in excess thereof), except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not in the amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

At least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to a redemption date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address appearing in the Security Register, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance pursuant to Article 8 hereof or a satisfaction and discharge pursuant to Article 11 hereof.

(c) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, if applicable, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Note;

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

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

(g) the applicable section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

(h) that no representation is made as to the correctness of the CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days (or such shorter period allowed by the Trustee), prior to the redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice (in the name and at the expense of the Company) and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in this Section 3.03.

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption shall become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional.

On or prior to 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on the Business Day prior to any redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and, if applicable, accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes to be redeemed.

If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for purchase or redemption in accordance with Section 2.08(d) hereof, whether or not such Notes are presented for payment. If a Note is redeemed on or after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the related Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed; provided that each new Note (other than PIK Notes) shall be in a principal amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof (except if all remaining Notes of a Holder are less than $100,000). It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary only an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officers’ Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

(a) (i) Beginning on the Issue Date, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the 2019 Notes, at once or over time, after giving the notice required pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Payment Date), if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on, as applicable, the Issue Date or August 2 of the years indicated below:

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the EPC Agreement is amended or modified to delay the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date for both Units 1 and 2 at the Facilities beyond August 31, 2014 (other than for any delay caused by the EPC Contractor as evidenced by an obligation by the EPC Contractor to pay liquidated damages under the EPC Agreement) (a “Delay Amendment”), or Substantial Completion does not occur for both Units 1 and 2 at the Facilities as a result of the termination of the EPC Agreement by the EPC Agreement Obligor, the redemption price for the 2019 Notes shall not be less than 107.5% for any period prior to Substantial Completion; and provided further that after any Delay Amendment, on and after the date that Substantial Completion for both Units 1 and 2 at the Facilities has occurred, the redemption price shall be as set forth above for the applicable periods.

(ii) Beginning on the Issue Date, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the 2026 Notes, at once or over time, after giving the notice required pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Payment Date), if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on, as applicable, the Issue Date or August 2 of the years indicated below:

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Delay Amendment occurs, or Substantial Completion does not occur for both Units 1 and 2 at the Facilities as a result of the termination of the EPC Agreement by the EPC Agreement Obligor, the redemption price for the 2026 Notes shall not be less than 107.5% for any period prior to Substantial Completion; and provided further that after any Delay Amendment, on and after the date that Substantial Completion for both Units 1 and 2 at the Facilities has occurred, the redemption price shall be as set forth above for the applicable periods.

(b) Any prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

The Notes will be subject to mandatory redemption upon the occurrence of a Recovery Event with respect to the Facilities, other than with respect to amounts received by the Company in connection with a Recovery Event for which the Company elects to restore or replace the asset or assets in respect of which such Recovery Event occurred and a Reinvestment Notice is provided to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee within 45 days of such Recovery Event (provided that, with respect to any Recovery Event of $50 million or more, the Independent Engineer shall have certified as to the reasonableness, in light of Prudent Industry Practice, of the Company’s repair and replacement plans as set forth in the Company’s Reinvestment Notice relating to such Recovery Event). An amount equal to 100% of the net proceeds from such Recovery Event shall be paid directly by the insurer or Governmental Authority providing such proceeds to the Collateral Agent to be held in trust pending application in accordance with this Section 3.08. Any mandatory redemption of the Notes will be without premium or penalty at a redemption price equal to the unpaid principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

The Company shall pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Company or a Subsidiary thereof, holds as of 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the due date money deposited by the Company in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. PIK Interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the Trustee is directed on or prior to such date to issue PIK Notes in an amount equal to the amount of the PIK Interest. Such Paying Agent shall return to the Company promptly, and in any event, no later than five (5) Business Days following the date of payment, any money (including accrued interest) that exceeds such amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest paid on the Notes. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the intervening period.

The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not allowed in any such proceeding) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the interest rate for the payment of interest then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not allowed in any such proceeding) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful.

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

(a) The Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) where Notes may be presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

(b) The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations, provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

(c) The Company hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Company in accordance with Section 2.03 hereof.

Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Trustee and to the Holders as provided in clause (d) of this Section 4.03:

(f) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). The Trustee is under no duty to examine such reports, information or documents to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Indenture or to ascertain the correctness or otherwise of the information or the statements contained therein.

The Company shall pay, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments and governmental levies, except such as are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to, at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and each Subsidiary that is a 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.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder of any Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid or is paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “Incur” and collectively an “Incurrence”) any Indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness.

“Permitted Indebtedness” means any of the following items of Indebtedness:

(a) the incurrence of Indebtedness pursuant to the Working Capital Facility by the Company and the issuance and creation of letters of credit and banker’s acceptances thereunder (with letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the face amount thereof) up to an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $75.0 million;

(b) Indebtedness represented by the Notes issued on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed $[ ] in the case of the 2019 Notes and $[ ] in the case of the 2026 Notes, and any PIK Notes issued pursuant to a PIK Payment;

(c) Indebtedness represented by Hedging Obligations incurred (i) for the purpose of fixing a rate of interest on floating rate Indebtedness of the Company, so long as such Hedging Obligations relate to Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred by the Company hereunder and (ii) in connection with Permitted Trading Activities;

(d) the incurrence by the Company of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under clauses (b) and (d) of this Section 4.08;

(e) Indebtedness in respect of letters of credit, surety bonds or performance bonds issued in the ordinary course of the Company’s business;

(g) Subordinated Indebtedness of a Wholly Owned Subsidiary to the Company or another Wholly Owned Subsidiary.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.08, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (a) through (g) above as of the date of incurrence thereof, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, be entitled to classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.08. Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.08.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any guarantee or other material contingent obligations except: (a) guarantees with respect to Permitted Trading Activities, (b) Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 4.08, (c) by reason of endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of the Company’s business, (d) indemnities in respect of unfiled mechanics’ liens and other liens permitted by clause (d) of the definition of “Permitted Liens,” (e) contingent obligations and indemnities incurred in connection with the Transaction Documents or in the ordinary course of business, and (f) customary indemnities in favor of the title insurers providing the title policies covering the Facility Site or any portion thereof or any easement or appurtenant right relating thereto in respect of claims by the holder of mechanics’ liens.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind against or upon any of its assets now owned or hereafter acquired, or upon any income or profits therefrom, except Permitted Liens.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Sale, unless:

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

(iii) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; and

(iv) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale is deposited by the Company or such Subsidiary into the Asset Sale Proceeds Account to be used in accordance with this Section 4.11.

(b) Within 365 days after the receipt of such Net Proceeds, the Company or such Subsidiary may use the Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale at its option to do any one or more of the following:

(i) redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof or to make one or more Asset Sale Offers;

(ii) to the extent the property that is subject to such Asset Sale constitutes Working Capital Facility Collateral, to repay Indebtedness and other Obligations under the Working Capital Facility;

(iii) acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Subsidiary of the Company;

(iv) acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business (including expenditures for maintenance, repair or improvement of existing properties and asset); or

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.11(b), if during the 365-day period described in this Section 4.11(b), the Company or a Subsidiary enters into a binding agreement committing it to apply such Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale in the manner set forth in Section 4.11(b)(iii), (iv) or (v), such 365-day period will be extended with respect to the amount of Net Proceeds so committed until such Net Proceeds are required to be applied in accordance with such agreement (or, if earlier, until termination of such agreement) (but such extension will in no event be for a period longer than 180 days).

(c) Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.11(b) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Company shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes that is at least

$100,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof (or, if PIK Notes, that is at least $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof) that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or accreted value, if less), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. The Company will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten (10) Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $10.0 million by mailing the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee.

To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the balance of such Net Proceeds shall be released by the Collateral Agent to the Company or such Subsidiary for use by the Company or such Subsidiary for any purpose not prohibited by the terms of this Indenture and shall cease to constitute Net Proceeds of Asset Sales subject to the provisions of this Section 4.11. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount so tendered. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset to zero.

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

(e) The Company shall follow the procedures specified below with respect to any Asset Sale Offer required by the terms of this Section 4.11:

(i) The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement (the “Offer Period”). Not later than five (5) Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Company shall apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes (on a pro rata basis, if applicable), or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

(ii) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, up to but excluding the Purchase Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

(iii) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company shall send a notice to each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

(A) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to Section 4.11 of this Indenture and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open;

(D) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the purchase price, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Purchase Date;

(E) that any Holder electing to have less than all of the aggregate principal amount of its Notes purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in denominations of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof (or, if PIK Notes, $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof);

(F) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with any applicable forms duly completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, the Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent, at the address specified in the notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Purchase Date;

(G) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Note purchased;

(H) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Trustee so that only Notes in denominations of $100,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess (or, if PIK Notes, $1.00 or whole multiples of $1.00 in excess) thereof are purchased); and

(I) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer) representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased.

(iv) On or before the Purchase Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful, (A) accept for payment, on a pro rata basis as described in this Section 4.11, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof validly tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered and (B) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof so tendered.

(v) On the Purchase Date, the purchase price will become due and payable on each Note accepted by the Company for purchase, and interest on Notes purchased will cease to accrue on and after the Purchase Date. The Trustee shall promptly return to Holders any Notes not accepted for purchase and shall send to Holders new Notes equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes accepted for purchase in part.

(vi) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.11, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.11 shall be made pursuant to the applicable provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof, and references therein to “redeem,” “redemption” and similar words shall be deemed to refer to “purchase,” “repurchase” and similar words, as applicable.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or

purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $5.0 million in the aggregate during any fiscal year, unless:

(i) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Company or the applicable Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Subsidiary with an unaffiliated third Person; and

(ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving consideration in excess of $25.0 million a Board Resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.12(a) and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the Board of Directors.

(i) Restricted Payments that are permitted by the provisions of this Indenture described in Section 4.14 and the definition of Permitted Investments;

(ii) transactions between or among the Company and/or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company acquired or created in compliance with Section 4.13 hereof or any entity that becomes a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company as a result of such transaction;

(iii) any reasonable employment, compensation, benefit or indemnification arrangement entered into by the Company in the ordinary course of business with directors, officers or employees and the payment of reasonable and customary fees paid to, and indemnities provided for the benefit of, former, current or future officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Company or any Parent;

(iv) transactions under (or related to) the Working Capital Facility; provided that any waivers, amendments, modifications or other changes thereto shall be made in compliance with Section 4.12(a);

(v) any transaction or agreement between the Company, on the one hand, and any Affiliates of the Company, on the other hand, in connection with or contemplated by the Transaction Documents set forth on Schedule 4.12(b), or any amendment thereto (so long as such amendment is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders when taken as a whole as compared to the applicable agreement as in effect on the Issue Date); and

(vi) any transaction for which an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or any Subsidiary of such transaction from a financial point of view has been issued to the Company or such Subsidiary by an independent investment banking firm of nationally recognized standing.

If on or after the Issue Date, the Company acquires or creates a Subsidiary, the Company and such Subsidiary shall:

(a) promptly notify the Trustee and the Holders (in accordance with Section 4.03(d)) that the Company acquired or created a Subsidiary;

(b) if such Subsidiary is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company (or, a non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary, unless prohibited by contract, law or such non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary’s organizational documents), execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall fully and unconditionally

guarantee, on the terms set forth in Article 12, all of the Company’s Obligations under this Indenture and the Notes, and concurrently with the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Subsidiary and that, subject to customary exceptions, assumptions and qualifications, the Guarantee of such Guarantor is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms;

(c) execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such amendments or supplements to the Collateral Documents necessary in order to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, a perfected security interest in the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary owned directly or indirectly by the Company and any intercompany Indebtedness of such Subsidiary between it and the Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company, subject to Permitted Liens;

(d) if the Subsidiary is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company (or, a non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary, unless prohibited by contract, law or such non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary’s organizational documents), (i) execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, the Notes Security Documents, pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, (A) a perfected first priority security interest, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, in the Notes Collateral of such Subsidiary, and (B) a perfected second priority security interest, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, in the Working Capital Facility Collateral of such Subsidiary, in each case subject to Permitted Liens, and (ii) take such actions as are reasonably necessary to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, a perfected first priority or second priority, as applicable, security interest, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, in the After-Acquired Property of such Subsidiary, subject to Permitted Liens as and when required pursuant to the Notes Security Documents; and

(e) in the event such Subsidiary shall at any time issue or have outstanding any intercompany Indebtedness between it and the Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company, the Company shall take or cause such Subsidiary to take all such actions as shall be necessary to cause such intercompany debt to constitute Subordinated Indebtedness.

(a) Except for payments contemplated by the Transaction Documents to be made on the Issue Date, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any Restricted Payments prior to October 1, 2014. On and after October 1, 2014, the Company may make Restricted Payments so long as each of the following conditions is satisfied:

(i) Substantial Completion for both Units 1 and 2 of the Facilities has occurred;

(ii) the date of such payment is a Restricted Payment Date (or within five (5) Business Days thereafter);

(iii) at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(iv) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as of the applicable Restricted Payment Date is equal to or greater than 1.70 to 1.0, as set forth in an Officer’s Certificate; and

(v)(A) the Debt Service Reserve Account shall be funded in cash in an amount equal to the then-applicable Debt Service Reserve Amount, or (B) the requirement to so fund such account shall be satisfied by the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit, which shall be in full force and effect (and the amount available for drawing thereunder shall be at least equal to the Debt Service Reserve Amount), or (C) any combination of (A) and (B) (and in either case, no reimbursement obligation (including any deferred loan with respect thereto) shall then be outstanding with respect to the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit).

(i) the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of any Capital Stock of the Company or any Parent in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company) of, Capital Stock of the Company (and any distribution, loan or advance of such net cash proceeds to any Parent for such purpose) or out of contributions to the equity capital of the Company;

(ii) the payment of dividends or other distributions or the making of loans or advances to any Parent in amounts required for any Parent to pay franchise taxes and other fees required to maintain its existence and provide for all other operating costs of any Parent to the extent attributable to the ownership or operation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, if any, including, without limitation, in respect of director fees and expenses, administrative, legal and accounting services provided by third parties and other costs and expenses plus any indemnification claims made by directors or officers of any Parent attributable to the ownership or operation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, if any; provided, that the Company may not pay dividends or make distributions in excess of $3 million per fiscal year in reliance on this clause (b)(ii);

(iii) beginning the first day after the later of (x) the date on which the first cash payment of interest shall have been paid on the Notes and (y) the date on which Substantial Completion for both Units 1 and 2 of the Facilities shall have occurred (the “Start Date”), the payment of dividends or other distributions to any Parent in amounts required for any Parent to pay its taxes; provided that,

(A) the Company is a partnership or disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes of which any Parent is a partner or member; and

(iv) the redemption, repurchase, defeasance, or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary made in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of Capital Stock of the Company or such Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall at no time be required to maintain a specific rating on the Notes.

The Company and its Subsidiaries shall not engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses.

Except as permitted under Section 5.01, the Company will, at its own cost and expense, (a) do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect the legal existence of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and (b) keep and maintain all property material to the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in (i) good working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), (ii) in compliance with all Requirements of Law of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, including without limitation, all Environmental Laws, and (iii) in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice, in each case unless such failure or noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or was attributable to an Event of Force Majeure; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve the legal existence of any Subsidiary, if the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes, or that such preservation is not necessary in connection with any transaction not prohibited by this Indenture.

Subject to Article 10, promptly following the acquisition by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company of any After-Acquired Property, the Company or such Subsidiary shall execute and deliver such mortgages, deeds of trust, security instruments, financing statements and certificates and opinions of counsel as shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected security interest in such After-Acquired Property and to have such After-Acquired Property added to the Notes Collateral or the Working Capital Facility Collateral, as applicable, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Notes Collateral or the Working Capital Facility Collateral, as applicable, shall be deemed to relate to such After-Acquired Property to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

The Company, at its own cost and expense, shall promptly perform or cause to be performed any and all acts and execute or cause to be executed any and all documents (including financing statements and continuation statements) as may be necessary in order to carry out the intent and purposes of this Indenture and the Notes Security Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including those documents necessary for filing under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code or any Requirement of Law which are necessary or advisable in order to establish, preserve, protect and perfect the first priority Lien or second priority Lien, as applicable, created by this Indenture and the Notes Security Documents. The Company shall promptly from time to time furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent such information with respect to the Facilities or the Facility Site as may be required to enable the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to timely file with any governmental entity any reports and obtain any licenses or permits required to be filed or obtained by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent.

The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain with one or more financially sound insurance companies of national standing business interruption insurance, physical damage insurance, including flood and earthquake coverage, and primary and excess liability insurance, as well as customary worker’s compensation and automobile insurance and such other insurance, if any, as is customarily maintained by companies of established repute engaged in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations. The Company will cause each insurance policy to name the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Holders as additional insured and loss payee as their interest may appear.

Neither the Company nor the EPC Agreement Obligor will modify, waive, amend or otherwise change the EPC Agreement in any manner (a) to materially amend the definition of Substantial Completion in a manner materially adverse to the Holders, or (b) that would reasonably be interpreted to have been made in order to

circumvent the provisions of this Indenture related to the EPC Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or the EPC Agreement Obligor may modify, waive, amend or otherwise change the EPC Agreement to extend the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date without the consent of the Holders; provided, that if such extension is for a period in excess of 90 days, the PIK Interest rate shall increase as set forth in paragraph 1 of each Note.

The Company will not, and will not allow any Subsidiary to, permit the occurrence of any event or condition with respect to a Pension Plan if such event or condition, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or involve any (a) material risk of foreclosure, sale, forfeiture or loss of, or imposition of a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on, the Facilities, the Company’s ownership interest in the Facilities or the Facility Site or the impairment of the use, operation or maintenance of the Facilities or the Facility Site in any material respect, or (b) material risk of any material adverse effect on the ownership interests of the Company or such Subsidiary.

At its own expense, the Company will comply, and will cause each Subsidiary to comply, with all Requirements of Law, such compliance to include, without limitation (a) those relating to pollution control, environmental protection, equal employment opportunity plans, ERISA plans and employee safety and (b) with respect to the Company, the Facilities or the Facility Site whether or not compliance therewith shall require structural changes in the Facilities or any part thereof or require major changes in operational practices or interfere with the use and enjoyment of the Facilities or any part thereof, except, in each of (a) and (b), where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of FERC imposed on it as a public utility with authorization to sell electric power at wholesale at market-based rates. As of the Issue Date and thereafter, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, duly file all notices, as and when required, related filings required by 18 C.F.R. Part 366 with the FERC.

The Company shall provide the Trustee prompt written notice of any anticipated change in its or any of its Subsidiaries’ jurisdiction of organization, form of corporate organization, chief executive office, principal place of business, or name, or the place where it maintains its business records concerning the Facilities or the Facility Site, which notice shall, in any event, be provided no later than 10 days prior to such change.

The Company agrees to obtain and maintain, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to obtain and maintain, all patents, licenses and other proprietary rights and technology necessary in connection with the operation and maintenance of the Facilities except where the failure to so maintain such rights or technology could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain good and valid fee, leasehold title to, or easement or other surface rights in, the Facility Site, subject only to Permitted Liens.

(b) The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain good and valid title to all of its other properties and assets (other than properties and assets disposed of in the ordinary course of business

including any sale, transfer or other disposition of any obsolete, surplus or worn out equipment, parts, supplies or other materials or assets), subject only to Permitted Liens or to the extent that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Company agrees that, except as required by any Transaction Document, it will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any Trading Activities other than Permitted Trading Activities.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, voluntarily permanently abandon the operation, maintenance or repair of the Facilities.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, modify, waive, amend or otherwise change the Working Capital Facility in any manner that would increase the applicable interest rate margin by more than 1.0%, increase commitment fees by more than 0.5%, impose an unreasonable fee for any forbearance, consent, waiver or amendment, make any financial maintenance covenants or events of default materially more restrictive than those set forth in the Indenture or any supplement thereto (or if not so set forth, than those existing on the Issue Date) or add additional financial maintenance covenants or events of default that are not contained in the Indenture or any supplement thereto, or expressly limit in any material respect any payments in respect of the Notes required to be made hereunder. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make payments to any lender under the Working Capital Facility, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property, by set-off or in any other manner, of all or any of its Obligations under the Working Capital Facility unless such payment is made from the Proceeds of the Working Capital Facility Collateral.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, incur or permit to exist any agreement or other arrangement that prohibits, restricts or imposes any condition upon the ability of any of its Subsidiaries to (i) pay dividends or make other distributions to holders of its Equity Interests; (ii) make loans or advances to, or pay any Indebtedness or other obligation owed to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iii) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(b) Section 4.31(a) shall not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of (i) any law, rule, regulation or order or any requirement of any regulatory body; (ii) agreements in effect on the Issue Date, including the Working Capital Facility; (iii) any Security Document, the Indenture or the Notes; (iv) any agreement relating to (A) asset sales that limit the transfer of such assets pending the closing of such sale or (B) the sale of a Subsidiary pending such sale, provided that such restrictions and conditions apply only to the Subsidiary that is to be sold and such sale is permitted hereunder; (v) any agreement relating to Indebtedness permitted to be incurred by Section 4.08 or 4.09 of this Indenture if such restrictions or conditions are customary for Indebtedness of the type incurred; provided that the restrictions therein are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents; (vi) any agreement of any Person or related to any asset acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary, so long as such restriction or condition (A) was not entered into in contemplation of the acquisition transaction, and (B) is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or such Person’s Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person or such Persons’ Subsidiaries, so acquired; (vii) customary provisions in leases and other contracts restricting the assignment thereof; (viii) Liens permitted to be incurred by Section 4.10 of this Indenture that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; and (ix) any agreement that amends, extends, renews, refinances or replaces the agreements containing restrictions or conditions in the foregoing clause (i) through (viii), or in this clause; provided that such agreement is, in the good faith judgment of the Company, no more restrictive with respect to such encumbrances and other restrictions, taken as a whole, than those prior to such amendment, extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement.

Subject to the rights of the holders of Permitted Liens, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, take or knowingly or negligently omit to take, any action which action or omission would or could reasonably be expected to have the result of materially impairing the security interest with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries party thereto to, amend, modify or supplement, or permit or consent to any amendment, modification or supplement of, the Security Documents in any way that would be adverse to the Holders, the Collateral Agent or the Trustee in any material respect, except as permitted under Articles 9 or 10 hereof or the Intercreditor Agreement.

With respect to any real property (individually and collectively, the “Premises”) owned by the Company or a Subsidiary on the Issue Date with a fair market value in excess of $500,000 (such delivery to be on the Issue Date) and with respect to any such property to be acquired by the Company or a Subsidiary after the Issue Date with a purchase price in excess of $500,000 (within 90 days of the acquisition thereof), the Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent:

(a) fully executed counterparts of mortgages, duly executed by the Company or the applicable Subsidiary, together with evidence of the completion (or satisfactory arrangements for the completion), of all recordings and filings of such mortgage as may be necessary to create a valid, perfected Lien (subject to no liens other than Permitted Liens) against the properties purported to be covered thereby;

(b) mortgagee’s title insurance policies in favor of the Collateral Agent, as mortgagee for the ratable benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Trustee and the Holders in an amount equal to (i) with respect to real property owned by the Company or a Subsidiary on the Issue Date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, and (ii) with respect to any real property to be acquired by the Company or a Subsidiary after the Issue Date with a purchase price in excess of $500,000, the fair market value of such real property, insuring that title to such property is indefeasible and that the interests created by the Mortgage constitute valid Liens thereon free and clear of all Liens, defects and encumbrances other than Permitted Liens together with typical endorsements, coinsurance and reinsurance and shall be accompanied by evidence of the payment in full of all premiums thereon; and

(c) with respect to each of the covered Premises, the most recent ALTA survey of such Premises, together with either (i) an updated survey certification in favor of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent from the applicable surveyor stating that, based on a visual inspection of the property and the knowledge of the surveyor, there has been no change in the facts depicted in the survey or (ii) an affidavit from the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, stating that there has been no change solely to the extent that the same is sufficient for the title insurance company to remove all standard survey exceptions and issue the endorsements.

(a) The Company will not (i) consolidate or merge with or into, any other Person or (ii) sell, assign, convey, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any Person or Persons in one or a series of transactions, unless, after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and:

(A) the transferee or the entity resulting from such consolidation, surviving such merger or succeeding to such properties or assets (X) shall be organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume, pursuant to an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, all of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents; and (Y) shall be a corporation, limited liability company or limited partnership;

(B) the Company shall provide to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such sale, assignment, conveyance, lease, transfer or other disposition and the supplemental indenture in respect thereof comply with this Indenture and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transactions have been complied with;

(C) other than with respect to an Exempted Change of Control Transaction, either (X) the Project Cost Threshold has been reached on or prior to the consummation of the applicable consolidation, merger or other disposition, the proposed transferee or surviving entity commits to complete the Project on the timeline contemplated by the EPC Agreement, and the Company’s Board of Directors has reasonably determined in good faith that such transferee or surviving entity has the reasonable financial wherewithal to do so; or (Y) Substantial Completion for both Units 1 and 2 of the Facilities have occurred; and

(D) after giving effect to such consolidation, merger or sale of all or substantially all of such properties or assets, the Notes shall have at least two of the following three credit ratings: at least BBB- from S&P; at least Baa3 from Moody’s and at least BBB- from Fitch; and prior to the consummation of any such transaction, the Company shall have provided to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to such effect or a copy of the letters from such applicable rating agencies confirming such ratings.

(b) Upon the consummation of such transaction described in Section 5.01(a), the resulting, surviving or succeeding entity, if other than the Company, shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power and shall perform every obligation of, the Company under this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents with the same effect as if such entity had been named herein and therein.

The Surviving Person shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture and the Security Documents.

(a) failure to make the payment of any interest on the Notes when the same becomes due and payable, and such failure continues for a period of five (5) days;

(b) failure to make the payment of any principal of, or premium, if any, on, any of the Notes when the same becomes due and payable at its Stated Maturity, upon acceleration, redemption, optional redemption, required repurchase or otherwise;

(c) failure to comply with any other covenant or agreement in this Indenture or the Notes (other than a failure that is the subject of the foregoing clause (a) or (b)), and such failure continues uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice is given to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding specifying the default, demanding that it be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”;

(d) a default under any Indebtedness by the Company or any Subsidiary that results in acceleration of the maturity of such Indebtedness, or failure to pay any such Indebtedness at maturity, in an aggregate amount greater than $5.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time;

(e) any judgment or judgments for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of $5.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent at the time) that shall be rendered against the Company or any Subsidiary and that shall not be waived, satisfied or discharged for any period of 30 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement shall not be in effect;

(f) the Company, any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries, that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, the General Partner or the EPC Agreement Obligor pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(i) commences a voluntary case or gives notice of intention to make a proposal under any Bankruptcy Law;

(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or consents to its dissolution or winding up;

(iii) consents to the appointment of a receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, liquidator, trustee or custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property;

(g) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(i) is for relief against the Company, any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries, that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; or

(ii) appoints a receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, liquidator, trustee or custodian of the Company, any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries, that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company; or

(iii) orders the liquidation of the Company, any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries, that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

(iv) and such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days;

(h) (i) any security interest purported to be created by any Notes Security Document with respect to any Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having a fair market value in excess of $10.0 million, shall cease to be a valid, binding and enforceable, perfected security interest in the securities, assets or properties covered thereby or (ii) the Company or any Subsidiary shall assert, in any pleading in any court of competent jurisdiction, that any such security interest is invalid or unenforceable and, in the case of any such Subsidiary, the Company fails to cause such Subsidiary to rescind assertions within 30 days of such assertions; except, in the case of each of (i) and (ii), to the extent that any such loss of perfection results from the failure of the Trustee or Collateral Agent to maintain possession of certificates actually delivered to it representing securities pledged under the Notes Security Documents;

(i) the failure by the Company or any Subsidiary party thereto to comply with its other agreements contained in the Notes Security Documents for a period of 60 days after receipt of a Notice of Default;

(j) the occurrence of a payment default under the EPC Agreement, the termination of the EPC Agreement or delivery of a notice of intended termination of the EPC Agreement, in any case, at any time before the Project Cost Threshold has been reached, provided that if such termination is the result of a change in Environmental Laws following which the Facilities are operating and are reasonably projected to operate in the future at or above the Operating Threshold and in material compliance with Environmental Laws, then no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder;

(k) (i) the Guarantee of the Notes by a Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect or (ii) any such Guarantor denies or disaffirms in writing its obligations under this Indenture or any such Guarantee (except, in the case of each of (i) and (ii), as contemplated by the terms thereof or by this Indenture) and such Default continues for a period of ten (10) days; and

(l) the occurrence of a Change of Control, other than an Exempted Change of Control Transaction.

(a) If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g)), the Trustee may, and upon written direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes shall, declare, by notice in writing to the Company specifying the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a notice of acceleration (the “Acceleration Notice”), the principal of all of the Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and the premium described in clause 6.02(b) hereof to be due and payable immediately. In the case of an Event of Default arising under Section 6.01(f) or (g), all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately without further action or notice (including an Acceleration Notice). Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Indenture. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their best interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

(b) As of the time of any acceleration of the Notes, the Redemption Premium applicable as of such time, as described in Sections 1.01 and 3.07, shall be due and payable, regardless of whether the Notes are actually called for redemption (which Redemption Premium is stipulated and agreed to constitute liquidated damages for the Holders for the loss of their investment opportunity and not a penalty), except with respect to any acceleration of the Notes resulting from:

(i) a failure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to comply with any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or the Notes that may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, voting as a single class, pursuant to Section 9.02 of this Indenture, other than those covenants and agreements set forth in (A) Section 4.08, 4.09, 4.14, 4.21 and 5.01 of this Indenture, or (B) Section 4.03, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.16, 4.24, 4.30 or 4.32 of this Indenture, to the extent such failure to comply resulted from intentional breach, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Company or such Subsidiary and such failure continues uncured for a period of sixty (60) days after receipt of a Notice of Default;

(ii) an Event of Default described in clauses (a) or (b) of Section 6.01 or a failure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to comply with any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or the Notes not covered by clause (b)(i) above, if (A) such default occurs at such time as $75 million of the Working Capital Facility has been advanced and remains outstanding (including in the form of undrawn letters of credit) and the Company has a cash balance of less than $50 million (excluding any amounts reserved for Debt Service Obligations), (B) such default may not reasonably have been avoided through the Company’s exercise of its option to pay PIK Interest, and (C) no less than $325 million in reasonable and documented costs and expenses, including without limitation, any cancellation charges, shall have been incurred and paid by General Electric Capital Corporation or any Affiliate thereof or by the EPC Agreement Obligor in connection with the installation of the Equipment (including all such reasonable and documented costs and expenses arising in connection with the BOP Agreements) (such amount being the “Project Cost Threshold”); or

(iii) a voluntary or involuntary filing for bankruptcy protection by or against any entity comprising the Company as a result of the Company’s inability to pay its trade payables as they become due at any time after Substantial Completion for both Unit 1 and Unit 2 of the Facilities has occurred if such filing occurs at such time as $75 million of the Working Capital Facility has been advanced and remains outstanding (including in the form of undrawn letters of credit) and the Company has a cash balance of less than $50 million (excluding any amounts reserved for Debt Service Obligations).

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, may each pursue any respective available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes, this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents.

The Trustee or the Collateral Agent may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent 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 shall be cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

The Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any existing Default or Event of Default, and its consequences, except a continuing Default or Event of Default (1) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes, (2) specified in clause (f) or (g) of Section 6.01 hereof and (3) in respect of a covenant or provision which under this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected by such modification or amendment. In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (d) of Section 6.01, such Event of Default and all consequences of that Event of Default, including without limitation any acceleration or resulting payment default, shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, if within 60 days after the Event of Default arose:

(a) the Indebtedness that is the basis for the Event of Default has been discharged;

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

Upon any waiver of a Default or Event of Default, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed cured for every purpose of this Indenture but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Subject to Section 7.01, Section 7.02(f) (including the Trustee’s receipt of the security or indemnification described therein) and Section 7.07 hereof, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have the right to direct (which direction shall be in writing to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent) the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee or the Collateral Agent with respect to the Notes. However, the Trustee

or the Collateral Agent may refuse to follow any direction that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent believes conflicts with law, this Indenture, the Notes or the Notes Security Documents, or that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in good faith determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of the other Holders of the Notes or that may involve the Trustee or Collateral Agent in personal liability. The Trustee or the Collateral Agent may take any other action consistent with this Indenture relating to any such direction.

No Holder shall have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy thereunder, unless:

(a) such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default or the Trustee receives the notice from the Company,

(b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding have made written request to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and such Holder or Holders have offered and, if requested, provided to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense, and

(c) the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days of the request and the offer, and if requested, the provision of security and indemnity.

The preceding limitations shall not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder for enforcement of payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, a Note on or after the respective due dates for such payments set forth in such Note.

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

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture (including Section 6.06), the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase), 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.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01 (a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and (i) in the case of the Trustee, as trustee of an express trust, or (ii) in the case of the Collateral Agent, as collateral agent on behalf of each of the Holders, in each case against the Company or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest) and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under or in connection with the Notes Security Documents and this Indenture.

The Trustee and the Collateral Agent are authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent

(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, and their respective agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent any amount due to it for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under or in connection with the Security Documents and this Indenture. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, moneys, securities and any other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise, and such Lien in favor of a predecessor Trustee or Collateral Agent shall be senior to the Lien in favor of the current Trustee or Collateral Agent. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

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

First: to the Trustee (including any predecessor Trustee), the Collateral Agent, any Agent, their respective agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, fees, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

Second: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee or the Collateral Agent for any action taken or omitted by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 shall not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by the Collateral Agent, a suit by the Company, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

If the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder has instituted any proceedings to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has

been determined adversely to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or to such Holder, then in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and any applicable Holder shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the applicable Holder shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee and of the Collateral Agent shall be as provided in the TIA and as set forth herein or in any Notes Security Document.

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs.

(i) the duties of the Trustee and of the Collateral Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee or the Collateral Agent; and

(ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

(c) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent may be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

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

(ii) neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of such Person, unless it is proved that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii) neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall 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 6.05 hereof.

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (e) and (f) of this Section 7.01.

(e) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture, the Notes or the Notes Security Documents at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered, and if requested, provided, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to each of them against any loss, liability or expense.

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

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, in no event shall the Trustee or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable under or in connection with this Indenture, the Notes or the Notes Security Documents for indirect, special, incidental, punitive or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits), whether or not foreseeable, irrespective of whether the Trustee or the Collateral Agent has or had been advised of the possibility or likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action in which such damages are sought.

(h) The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for the failure to perform their duties and obligations hereunder to the extent that such failure is found by a final nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be directly caused by the failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder.

(a) Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely upon any document (whether in its original, electronic or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent need investigate any fact or matter stated in any such document, but each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and if the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company personally or by agent or attorney.

(b) Before the Trustee or the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for any action it suffers, takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(c) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

(d) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company.

(e) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default (or any cure or waiver thereof) unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default (or cure or waiver thereof) is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee from the Company or the Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, and such notice references the specific Default or Event of Default (or cure or waiver thereof), the Notes and this Indenture.

(f) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its power and duties hereunder.

(g) No permissive right of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to act hereunder or under any Notes Security Document shall be construed as a duty to so act;

(h) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty to inquire as to the performance of the Company’s covenants herein.

(i) Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may execute any of its trusts or powers hereunder or perform any of its duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.

(j) Each of the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent and custodian of the Trustee or Collateral Agent and other Person employed by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, to act hereunder.

(k) The Trustee or the Collateral Agent may request that the Company deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any persons authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee or resign. Any Agent or the Collateral Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee shall also be subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Notes Security Documents or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if the Trustee shall have received notice thereof, the Trustee shall (at the expense of the Company) mail to Holders a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs unless such Default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, and the Trustee shall have received notice thereof. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders.

Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall (at the expense of the Company) mail to the Holders

a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA Section 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA Section 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA Section 313(c).

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA Section 313(d). The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange and any delisting thereof.

The Company shall pay to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and any Agent (each an “Indemnified Party”) from time to time compensation as agreed upon by such Indemnified Party and the Company, and, in the absence of any such agreement, reasonable compensation for such Indemnified Party’s acceptance of this Indenture and their respective services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse each Indemnified Party promptly upon request for all disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the compensation, disbursements and reasonable expenses of each such Indemnified Party’s agents and counsel.

The Company shall indemnify each Indemnified Party, including any predecessor Trustee or Collateral Agent (in its capacity as Trustee or Collateral Agent), and its agents, employees and directors and officers for, and shall hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, liabilities or expenses, including incidental and out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees (for purposes of this Article, “losses”) incurred by such Indemnified Party arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of such Indemnified Party’s duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company (including this Section 7.07) and defending such Indemnified Party against any claim (whether asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any power or duty hereunder, except to the extent such losses are found by a final nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be attributable to such Indemnified Party’s negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Indemnified Party shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Section 7.07. The Company shall defend the claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in the defense. Each Indemnified Party may have separate counsel if such Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Company and in the judgment of such counsel it is advisable for such Indemnified Party to engage separate counsel, and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss incurred by an Indemnified Party through the Indemnified Party’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

The obligations of the Company to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent under this Indenture shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, and payment in full of the Notes through the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, in its capacity as such, except that held in trust to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

When an Indemnified Party incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

A resignation or removal of the Trustee or Collateral Agent and appointment of a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s or Collateral Agent’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.

The Trustee or the Collateral Agent may resign in writing at any time upon 30 days’ prior notice to the Company and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee or Collateral Agent at any time by so notifying the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the Company in writing. The Company may by Board Resolution remove the Trustee or the Collateral Agent if:

(b) the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under any Bankruptcy Law;

(c) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, or its property; or

(d) the Trustee or Collateral Agent becomes incapable of acting as Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder.

If the Trustee or the Collateral Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent for any reason (the Trustee or Collateral Agent in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable. Within one year after the successor Trustee or Collateral Agent takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent to replace the successor Trustee or Collateral Agent appointed by the Company.

If a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, provides notice of its resignation to the Company or is removed, the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent, the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable.

If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee or Collateral Agent shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent and to the Company. 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, as applicable, under this Indenture. The successor Trustee or Collateral Agent shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. Subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof, the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable to the successor Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable; provided, however, that all sums owing to the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent hereunder shall have been paid. Notwithstanding replacement of the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent.

In the case of an appointment hereunder of a separate or successor Trustee or Collateral Agent with respect to the Notes, the Company, any retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent and each successor or separate Trustee or Collateral Agent with respect to the Notes shall execute and deliver an Indenture supplemental hereto (1) which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights,

powers, trusts and duties of any retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent with respect to the Notes as to which any such retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent is not retiring shall continue to be vested in such retiring Trustee or Collateral Agent and (2) that shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustee co-trustees of the same trust and that each such separate, retiring or successor Trustee shall be Trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any such other Trustee.

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or banking association, the successor corporation or banking association without any further act shall, if such successor corporation or banking association is otherwise eligible under Section 7.10 hereof, be the successor Trustee.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities, and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0 million (or a wholly owned subsidiary of a bank or trust company, or of a bank holding company, the principal subsidiary of which is a bank or trust company having a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0 million) as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA Section 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA Section 310(b).

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

All references in this Indenture to the Trustee shall be deemed to refer to the Trustee in its capacity as Trustee and in its capacities as any Agent and the Collateral Agent, to the extent acting in such capacities, and every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability or offering protection, immunity or indemnity to the Trustee shall be deemed to apply with the same force and effect to the Trustee acting in its capacities as any Agent and the Collateral Agent.

In no event shall the Trustee or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear, environmental or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee and Collateral Agent shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

The Company may, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Article 8.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”) and any Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations under its Guarantee. For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of Outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.04, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Sections 4.01 and 4.02, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee and any Agent hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and (d) this Article 8. If the Company exercises under Section 8.01 the option applicable to this Section 8.02, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.08 through 4.16 and 4.18 through 4.33 hereof, and the operation of Section 5.01, with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”) and any Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations under its Guarantee with respect to such covenants in connection with such outstanding Notes and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. If the Company exercises under Section 8.01 the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clauses (c) through (e) and (h) through (l) of Section 6.01.

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

(a) the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee, in trust (the “defeasance trust”), for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable U.S. Government Securities, in an amount sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the next redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company shall specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to such particular redemption date;

(b) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) subsequent to the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

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

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

(e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Subsidiary that is a Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Subsidiary that is a Guarantor is bound;

(f) the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding such other creditors; and

(g) the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Section 8.05. Deposited Cash and U.S. Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 8.06, all cash and non-callable U.S. Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest but such cash and securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

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

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

The Trustee shall promptly pay to the Company after request therefor, any excess money held with respect to the Notes at such time in excess of amounts required to pay any of the Company’s Obligations then owing with respect to the Notes.

Any cash or non-callable U.S. Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder shall thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such cash and securities, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such cash and securities remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such cash and securities then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any cash or non-callable U.S. Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such cash and securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the cash and securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Company and the Trustee, and, if such amendment or supplement relates to any Notes Security Document, the Collateral Agent, may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes Security Documents or the Notes without the consent of any Holder to:

(b) provide for the assumption by a Surviving Person of the obligations of the Company under this Indenture pursuant to Section 5.01 of this Indenture;

(c) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code);

(d) evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment under this Indenture of a successor Trustee or Collateral Agent pursuant to the requirements of this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents;

(e) add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company;

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

(g) to add additional assets as Collateral or to provide for the release of Collateral from the Liens and the Notes Security Documents, in each case, when permitted or required by any of the Notes Security Documents or this Indenture;

(h) comply with Section 4.13 of this Indenture or add any Guarantor under the Indenture;

(i) make any other change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any such Holder; or

(j) make any change to comply with any requirement of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in formulating its opinion in regards to this Section 9.01, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, is entitled to conclusively rely on such evidence as it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, solely on an Opinion of Counsel.

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee, or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may amend or supplement this Indenture and the Notes with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, then outstanding voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, any existing Default or Event of Default (except a continuing Default or Event of Default (i) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes, (ii) an Event of Default specified in clause (f) or (g) of Section 6.01 hereof and (iii) in respect of a covenant or provision which under this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected by such modification or amendment) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, then outstanding voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes).

Without the consent of each Holder, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

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

(b) reduce the principal of, or change the Stated Maturity of, any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes;

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

(f) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on, such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes;

(g) make any change to or modify the ranking of the Notes that would adversely affect the Holders; or

(h) reduce or waive the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed, as described under Section 3.07.

In addition, (x) any modification or amendment to, or waiver of, the provision of this Indenture or any Notes Security Document that has the effect of releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens, or (y) other than as expressly permitted by this Indenture, any modification or amendment to or release of the Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary in any manner adverse to the Holders, will require consent of the Holders of at least 66 ²/₃% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes).

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any supplemental indenture. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that unless such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 120 days after such record date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect.

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

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holder of each Note affected thereby to such Holder’s address appearing in the Security Register a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article 9 shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

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

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

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

The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be. The Company may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until its Board of Directors (or committee serving a similar function) approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amended or supplemental indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions and that such amended or supplemental indenture complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03). Such Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent and shall be paid by the Company.

The due and punctual payment of the principal of, interest (including additional interest, if any) and premium, if any, on the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an Payment Date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest (including additional interest, if any) on the Notes and performance of all other Obligations of the Company to the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under this Indenture and the Notes, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder, are secured as provided in the Notes Security Documents. The Trustee and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, holds the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders, in each case pursuant to the terms of the Notes Security Documents. Each Holder, by its acceptance of any Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Notes Security Documents (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into this Indenture and the Notes Security Documents and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder as a Secured Party in accordance therewith. The Company

shall deliver to the Trustee (if it is not itself then the Collateral Agent) copies of all documents delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Notes Security Documents. The Company and each Subsidiary party thereto will do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be necessary or proper, or as may be required by the provisions of the Notes Security Documents, to assure and confirm to the Collateral Agent the security interest in the Collateral contemplated hereby, by the Notes Security Documents or any part thereof, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes secured hereby, according to the intent and purposes herein expressed. The Company and each Subsidiary party thereto will take any and all actions reasonably required to cause the Notes Security Documents to create and maintain, as security for the Obligations of the Company hereunder, a valid and enforceable perfected first priority Lien in and on all the Collateral (other than the Working Capital Facility Collateral securing the Notes, which shall be subject to a second priority lien), in favor of the Collateral Agent, as Secured Party, for the benefit of the Holders, superior to and prior to the rights of all third Persons, except to the extent set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, and subject to no other Liens than Permitted Liens. If required for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any domestic jurisdiction in which any of the Collateral may at the time be located, the Company, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have the power to appoint, and shall take all reasonable power to appoint, one or more Persons approved by the Trustee and reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as co-Collateral Agent with respect to any such Collateral, with such rights and powers limited to those deemed necessary for the Company, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to comply with any such legal requirements with respect to such Collateral, and which rights and powers shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any Notes Security Document. The Company shall from time to time pay all reasonable financing and continuation statement recording and/or filing fees, charges and taxes relating to this Indenture, the Notes Security Documents and any amendments hereto or thereto, and any other insurance or further assurance required hereto or thereto.

(a) The Company will comply with the provisions of TIA Sections 314(b), 314(c) and 314(d), in each case following qualification of this Indenture pursuant to the TIA and except to the extent not required as set forth in any SEC regulation or interpretation (including any no-action letter issued by the SEC, whether issued to the Company or any other Person).

(b) The Company will furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent on [ ] in each year beginning with [ ], an Opinion of Counsel, dated as of such date, either: (i) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, action has been taken with respect to the recording, registering, filing, re-recording, re-registering and re-filing of all supplemental indentures, financing statements, continuation statements or other instruments of further assurance as is necessary to maintain the Lien of the Security Agreement and reciting with respect to the security interest in the Collateral the details of such action or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which such details are given, and (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, based on relevant laws as in effect on the date of such Opinion of Counsel, all financing statements and continuation statements have been executed and filed that are necessary as of such date and during the succeeding 12 months fully to preserve and protect, to the extent such protection and preservation are possible by filing, the rights of the Holders, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee hereunder and under the Notes Security Documents with respect to the security interest in the Collateral; or (ii) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to maintain such Lien and assignment, and, in each case, subject to customary assumptions and qualifications.

(a) Subject to subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 10.03, Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by the Notes Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Notes Security Documents and this Indenture. The Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall release any Lien against any Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of pursuant to a transaction permitted under this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents. Upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall promptly execute, deliver or acknowledge any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents.

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

(c) The release of any Collateral from the terms of this Indenture and the Security Agreement will not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement and hereof. To the extent applicable, the Company will cause TIA Section 313(b), relating to reports, and TIA Section 314(d), relating to the release of property or securities from the Lien and security interest of the Security Agreement and relating to the substitution therefor of any property or securities to be subjected to the Lien and security interest of the Security Agreement, to be complied with. Any certificate or opinion required by TIA Section 314(d) may be made by an Officer of the Company except in cases where TIA Section 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 selected or approved by the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in the exercise of reasonable care.

The Company will furnish to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, prior to each proposed release of Collateral pursuant to the Security Agreement:

(b) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such accompanying documents constitute all documents required by TIA Section 314(d).

The Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may, to the extent permitted by Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof, accept as conclusive evidence of compliance with the foregoing provisions the appropriate statements contained in such documents and such Opinion of Counsel.

In the event that the Company wishes to release Collateral in accordance with the Security Agreement and has delivered the certificates and documents required by the Security Agreement and Sections 10.01, and 10.03 hereof, the Trustee will determine whether it has received all documentation required by TIA Section 314(d) in connection with such release.

Section 10.06. Authorization of Actions to Be Taken by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent Under the Security Agreement.

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and 7.02 hereof, each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, take, on behalf of the Holders, all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:

(b) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Obligations of the Company hereunder.

Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have the power to institute and 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 Notes 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 respective interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral (including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the

enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest hereunder or be prejudicial to the respective interests of the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent).

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 on 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 that such action or omission constitutes negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Company 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. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have any responsibility for recording, filing, re-recording or re-filing 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 Notes Security Documents or otherwise.

Section 10.07. Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent Under the Security Agreement.

The Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Notes Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture. The Collateral Agent is authorized, to the extent permitted under the Intercreditor Agreement, to receive any funds distributed under the Notes Security Documents for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders, and to receive such funds for turnover to the Trustee to make further distributions of such funds to itself, the Collateral Agent and the Holders in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Upon the payment in full of all Obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes, or upon Legal Defeasance, the Trustee will, at the request of the Company, release the Liens pursuant to this Indenture and the Notes Security Documents.

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

The Trustee and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby designates and appoints the Collateral Agent as its agent under this Indenture and the Notes Security Documents and the Trustee and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Indenture and the Notes Security Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture, and the Notes Security Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein or therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Holder, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities,

duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents, or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or obligation to any Holder or any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company or any Guarantor or is cared for, protected or insured, or has been encumbered, or that the liens granted on the Collateral pursuant to the Notes Security Documents have been properly, sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority.

The Collateral Agent may consult with the counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall constitute full and complete authorization for, and protection from liability in respect of, any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder or under the Notes Security Documents in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under this Indenture or the Notes Security Documents (i) with the consent or at the request of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect, except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, as to all Notes issued hereunder, when:

(i) all Notes that have been previously authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has previously been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and is thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from the trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(ii) (A) all Notes that have not been previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, have become due and payable by their terms or have been called for redemption or will become due and payable within one year, including as a result of a redemption notice properly given pursuant to this Indenture, and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or redemption for principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the date of deposit, in the case of Notes that have become due and payable, or to the Stated Maturity or redemption date, as the case may be; (B) the Company has paid all other sums payable by the Company with respect to the Notes under this Indenture; (C) the Company has paid all other sums payable by the Company pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof; and (D) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at Stated Maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be.

(x) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound; and

(y) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been satisfied.

Section 11.02. Deposited Cash and U.S. Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 11.03, all cash and non-callable U.S. Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 11.02, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest but such cash and securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

Any cash or non-callable U.S. Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder shall thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such cash and securities, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such cash and securities remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such cash and securities then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

(a) Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety on a senior basis, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and their respective successors and assigns (i) the full and punctual payment when due, subject to applicable grace periods, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of all obligations of the Company (including obligations to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent) under this Indenture, the Notes and the Notes Security Documents, whether for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes and all other monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture, the Notes and the Notes Security Documents, and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company whether for fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise under this Indenture, the Notes and the Notes Security Documents (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guaranteed Obligations of a Guarantor will be secured by security interests in the Collateral owned by such Guarantor to the extent provided for in the Notes Security Documents and as required pursuant to Sections 4.13 and 4.18.

(b) Each Guarantor, to the extent permitted by law, waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) 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 Company or any other

Person under this Indenture, the Notes, any Notes Security Document or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of this Indenture, the Notes, any Notes Security Document or any other agreement; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes, any Notes Security Document or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent for the Guaranteed Obligations or any Guarantor; (v) the failure of any Holder, Trustee or the Collateral Agent to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (vi) any change in the ownership of such Guarantor, except as provided in Section 12.02(b).

(c) Subject to Section 12.02(a), each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have its obligations hereunder divided among the Guarantors, such that such Guarantor’s obligations would be less than the full amount claimed. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Company or any other Guarantor first be used and depleted as payment of the Company’s or such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid by such Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to require that the Company be sued prior to an action being initiated against such Guarantor.

(d) Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance 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.

(e) Except as expressly set forth in Article 12, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, 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.

(f) Except as expressly set forth in Article 12, each Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations. Except as expressly set forth in Article 12, each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee 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 or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

(g) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee or Collateral Agent has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders, the Trustee or Collateral Agent an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by applicable law) and (iii) all other monetary obligations of the Company then due to the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(h) Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of any Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 6, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 12.01. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under any Guarantee.

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

(j) The Guarantee set forth in this Article 12 shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose with respect to a Note until such Note has been duly authenticated pursuant to this Indenture.

(k) Upon request of the Trustee, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

(a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount, 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 Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to Section 12.01, that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable Bankruptcy, Federal or State laws relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

(b) A Guarantee as to any Guarantor shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and such Guarantor shall be deemed to be automatically released from all obligations under this Article 12 upon:

(i) the sale, disposition or other transfer (including through merger or consolidation) of the Capital Stock (including any sale, disposition or other transfer following which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of the Company), or all or substantially all the assets, of the applicable Guarantor if such sale, disposition or other transfer is made in compliance with this Indenture, in each case other than to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company; provided, however, that such Guarantor is released from its guarantees, if any, of, and all pledges and security, if any, granted in connection with, the Working Capital Facility and any other Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; or

(ii) the Company’s exercise of the Company’s legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option in accordance with Section 8.01 or if the obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee, Collateral Agent or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 12 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee, Collateral Agent and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 12 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Each Person which is required to become a Guarantor after the Issue Date pursuant to Section 4.13 shall promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit C hereto pursuant to which such Person shall become a Guarantor under this Article 12 and shall guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations.

(a) Subject to Section 12.02 and the limitations set forth in this Article 12, no Guarantor will, and the Company will not permit any Guarantor to, consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into or wind up into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to any Person unless:

(b) (i) such Guarantor is the surviving Person or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, amalgamation or merger (if other than such Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made is a Person organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor, as applicable, or the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (such surviving Guarantor or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the “Successor Person”);

(ii) the Successor Person, if other than such Guarantor, expressly assumes all the obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture and such Guarantor’s related Guarantee pursuant to supplemental indentures or other agreements in form satisfactory to the Trustee;

(iv) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indentures, if any, comply with this Indenture.

(c) In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Guarantee and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor.

(d) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, any Guarantor may (i) merge, amalgamate or consolidate with or into, wind up into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to another Guarantor or the Company, (ii) merge with an Affiliate of the Company solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Guarantor in the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) convert into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability corporation or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor or (iv) liquidate or dissolve or change its legal form if the Company determines in good faith that such action is in the best interests of the Company.

If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision which is required to be included in this Indenture by the TIA, the provision required by the TIA shall control.

Any notice or communication by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Trustee to the others is duly given if in writing and delivered in person or mailed by first class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), facsimile transmission or overnight air courier guaranteeing next-day delivery, to the other’s address:

The Company or the Trustee, by notice to the other, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

All notices and communications (other than those sent to the Trustee or Holders) shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; five (5) Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when receipt acknowledged, if sent by facsimile transmission; and the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next-day delivery.

Any notice or communication to a Holder shall be mailed by first class mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, or by overnight air courier guaranteeing next-day delivery to its address shown on the Security Register. Any notice or communication shall also be so mailed to any Person described in TIA Section 313(c), to the extent required by the TIA. Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders.

If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

If the Company mails a notice or communication to Holders, it shall mail a copy to the Trustee and each Agent at the same time.

Holders may communicate pursuant to TIA Section 312(b) with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Notes. The Company, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Registrar and anyone else shall have the protection of TIA Section 312(c).

Upon any request or application by the Company to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or any Notes Security Document, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be:

(a) an Officers’ Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 13.05 hereof) stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and

Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than a certificate provided pursuant to TIA Section 314(a)(4)) shall comply with the provisions of TIA Section 314(e) and shall include:

(a) a statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;

(b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

With respect to matters of fact, an Opinion of Counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate, certificates of public officials or reports or opinions of experts.

The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders. The Registrar or Paying Agent may make reasonable rules and set reasonable requirements for its functions.

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

1. Interest. Homer City Generation, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 2019 Note at a rate per annum set forth below from [ ], 2012 until maturity. The Company shall pay interest semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on , 20 , or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each a “Payment Date”). The Company will make each interest payment to the Holder of record of this 2019 Note on the immediately preceding March 15 and September 15, commencing on March 15, 2013 (each, a “Record Date”). Interest on this 2019 Note shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including [ ], 2012; provided, however, that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this 2019 Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Payment Date. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the interest rate then in effect under the Indenture and this 2019 Note; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

For any interest period after [ ], 2012 and through and including April 1, 2014 or such earlier date as provided in the last sentence of this paragraph (the “PIK Interest Period”), the Company may, at its option, elect to pay interest on this 2019 Note (i) entirely in cash at a rate of 8.137% per annum (the “Cash Rate”) or (ii) by issuing PIK Notes (“PIK Interest”) at a rate of 8.637% per annum provided that, if the EPC Agreement is amended or modified to delay the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date for both Units 1 and 2 at the Facilities beyond November 29, 2014 (other than for any delay caused by the EPC Contractor as evidenced by an obligation by the EPC Contractor to pay liquidated damages under the EPC Agreement), the PIK Interest rate shall increase to 9.137% per annum, effective on the first day of the period during which such amendment or modification was made. During the PIK Interest Period, the Company must elect the form of interest payment with respect to each interest period by delivering a notice to the Trustee (and to the Holders as provided in Section 4.03(d) of the Indenture) at least 15 days prior to the beginning of each interest period stating its election. In the absence of such an election for any interest period, interest on this 2019 Note will be payable in the form of the interest payment for the prior interest period. Interest for the first period commencing on [ ], 20[ ] shall be payable in the form of [ ]. Beginning October 1, 2014, the Company will make all interest payments on this 2019 Note entirely in cash. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the payment of accrued interest in connection with any redemption of 2019 Notes pursuant to Section 3.07 or 3.08 of the Indenture shall be made solely in cash. The PIK Interest Period shall terminate if the EPC Agreement terminates, except where such termination is the result of a change in Environmental Laws following which the Facilities are operating at or above the Operating Threshold and in material compliance with Environmental Laws.

PIK Interest on this 2019 Note will be payable by issuing PIK Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for the applicable interest period (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar) and the Trustee will, at the request of the Company and subject to the conditions of Section 2.02 of the Indenture, authenticate and deliver such PIK Notes for original issuance to the Holder of this 2019 Note on the relevant Record Date, as shown by the records of the Note Register. Any PIK Notes will be dated as of the applicable Payment Date and will bear interest from and after such date. All PIK Notes issued pursuant to a PIK Payment will mature on

October 1, 2019 and will be governed by, and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of, the Indenture and shall have the same rights and benefits as the 2019 Notes issued on [ ], 2012. Any PIK Notes will be issued with the description “PIK” on the face of such PIK Note.

2. Principal. The principal on this 2019 Note shall be due and payable in consecutive semi-annual installment payments on each Payment Date, commencing on October 1, 2014, and ending on the Payment Date for the final installment of principal set forth above, and each such installment of principal shall be in the amount set forth in Schedule I attached hereto in the column headed “Schedule of Scheduled Payments of Principal” with respect to the date of such installment, provided that the final installment of principal shall be equal to the then unpaid principal balance of this 2019 Note.

3. Method of Payment. The Company shall pay principal and interest due on this 2019 Note to the Persons in whose name this 2019 Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Payment Date, even if this 2019 Note is cancelled after such Record Date and on or before such Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Cash payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the Security Register, provided that [all cash payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on, this 2019 Note will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holder or Holders thereof]¹ [all cash payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on, this 2019 Note will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion)]². Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

4. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon, the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

5. Indenture. The Company issued the 2019 Notes under an Indenture dated as of [ ], 2012 (“Indenture”) between the Company, the guarantors named therein, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent. The terms of the 2019 Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The 2019 Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Trust Indenture Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this 2019 Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

Holders of the 2019 Notes and holders of the Company’s 8.734% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) will be treated as a single class for all purposes hereunder and under the Indenture, including without limitation, for purposes of voting, consents, waivers, amendments and redemptions. Holders of the 2019 Notes and holders of the 2026 Notes shall have no right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter.

(a) Beginning on [ ], 2012, the Company may redeem all or any portion of the 2019 Notes, at once or over time, after giving the required notice under the Indenture. The 2019 Notes may be redeemed at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 2019 Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Payment Date), if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on, as applicable, [ ], 2012 or August 2 of the years indicated below:

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Delay Amendment occurs, or Substantial Completion does not occur for both Units 1 and 2 at the Facilities as a result of the termination of the EPC Agreement by the EPC Agreement Obligor, the redemption price for the 2019 Notes shall not be less than 107.5% for any period prior to Substantial Completion; and provided further that after any Delay Amendment, on and after the date that Substantial Completion for both Units 1 and 2 at the Facilities has occurred, the redemption price shall be as set forth above for the applicable periods.

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

7. Mandatory Redemption. The 2019 Notes will be subject to mandatory redemption upon the occurrence of a Recovery Event with respect to the Facilities, other than with respect to amounts received by the Company in connection with a Recovery Event for which the Company elects to restore or replace the asset or assets in respect of which such Recovery Event occurred and a Reinvestment Notice is provided to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee within 45 days of such Recovery Event (provided that, with respect to any Recovery Event of $50 million or more, the Independent Engineer shall have certified as to the reasonableness, in light of Prudent Industry Practice, of the Company’s repair and replacement plans as set forth in the Company’s Reinvestment Notice relating to such Recovery Event). Any mandatory redemption of the 2019 Notes will be without premium or penalty at a redemption price equal to the unpaid principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

8. Notice of Redemption. Subject to Section 3.03 of the Indenture, notice of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date (except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 11 of the Indenture) to each Holder whose 2019 Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. 2019 Notes in denominations larger than $100,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000 (or if a PIK Payment has been made, in denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof with respect to a PIK Note or a portion of a Global Note constituting PIK Interest), unless all of the 2019 Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the redemption date interest ceases to accrue on 2019 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

9. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The 2019 Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or, if a PIK Payment has been made, in denominations of $1.00 and integral multiples of $1.00 in excess thereof). The transfer of 2019 Notes may be registered and 2019 Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any 2019 Note or portion of a 2019 Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any 2019 Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any 2019 Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of 2019 Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Payment Date.

10. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a 2019 Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

11. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

12. Defaults and Remedies. The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency described in the Indenture, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Notes. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee, may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any existing Default or Event of Default, except a continuing Default or Event of Default (1) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any or interest, on the Notes, (2) specified in clause (f) or (g) of Section 6.01 of the Indenture and (3) in respect of a covenant or provision which under the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected by such modification or amendment. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is required within 30 days after the occurrence of any Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default.

13. Restrictive Covenants. The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and any Subsidiary to make restricted payments, to incur indebtedness, to create liens, to sell assets, to make investments, to engage in transactions with affiliates, and to consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets. The limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions. The Company must annually report to the Trustee on compliance with such limitations.

14. Trustee Dealings with Company. Subject to certain limitations, the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

15. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, or limited partner, general partner, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or the General Partner, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company under the Indenture, the Notes or the Security Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver and release may not be effective to waive or release liabilities under the federal securities laws.

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

17. Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

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

19. Security. The Note will be secured by the Collateral on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture and the Notes Security Documents. The Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hold the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Holders, in each case pursuant to the Notes Security Documents. Each Holder, by accepting this Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Notes Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the foreclosure and release of Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and the Indenture and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Notes Security Documents, and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith.

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