(c)“or” is not exclusive;

1.4Limited Condition Transactions. When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture or compliance with any provision of this Indenture in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the Incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness and the use of the proceeds thereof, the Incurrence of Liens, repayments and Restricted Payments), in each case, at the option of the Parent Guarantor (the Parent Guarantor’s election to exercise such

option, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination for availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any Default or Event of Default)) under this Indenture shall be deemed to be the date (the “LCT Test Date”) the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable notice, declaration of a dividend or similar event) and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the Incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof, the Incurrence of Liens, repayments and Restricted Payments) and any related pro forma adjustments, the Parent Guarantor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such actions or consummate such transactions on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied with (or satisfied) for all purposes; provided, that compliance with such ratios, tests or baskets (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the Incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof, the Incurrence of Liens, repayments and Restricted Payments).

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Parent Guarantor has made an LCT Election, (1) if any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations (and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred due to such failure to comply), and (2) in calculating the availability under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Conditional Transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or date for redemption, purchase or repayment specified in an irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated, expires or passes, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be determined or tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction.

1.5Financial Covenant Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein with respect to any amounts Incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture under a restrictive covenant that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Indenture that requires compliance with any such financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts (and any cash proceeds thereof) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence Based Amounts in connection with such substantially concurrent incurrence.

2
THE NOTES

2.1Amount of Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Original Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture on the Issue Date is $500,000,000.

The Company may from time to time after the Issue Date, without the consent of the Holders, issue Additional Notes under this Indenture in an unlimited principal amount, subject to compliance with the covenants contained in this Indenture. Additional Notes shall have the same terms as the Original Notes (other than the issue date, the issue price and, under certain circumstances, the first interest payment date and the first date from which interest accrues) and be part of the same issue as the Original Notes for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase; provided that if any such Additional Notes are not fungible with the Original Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes shall have a separate CUSIP number. With respect to any Additional Notes issued after the Issue Date (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Sections 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 2.10, 3.06, 3.08, 4.04 and 4.08 or the Appendix), the Company shall set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, copies of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information:

(a)the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture;

(b)the issue price and issuance date of such Additional Notes, including the date from which interest on such Additional Notes shall accrue; and

(c)the CUSIP number of such Additional Notes.

2.2Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Notes are set forth in the Appendix, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The (i) Original Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication and (ii) any Additional Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any, or usage; provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be issuable only in fully registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $200,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. Each Holder of (and Holder of beneficial interests in) any Note, by benefiting from such Note, agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Indenture. To the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

2.3Execution and Authentication. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery upon a written order of the Company signed by an Officer of the Company (an “Authentication Order”) (a) Original Notes for original issue on the date hereof in an aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 and (b) subject to the terms of this Indenture, Additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount to be determined at the time of issuance and specified therein. Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated. Notwithstanding anything to the

contrary in this Indenture or the Appendix, any issuance of Additional Notes after the Issue Date shall be in a principal amount of $200,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Prior to the authentication of the Original Notes or any Additional Notes, the Trustee shall also receive an Officer’s Certificate.

One Officer of the Company shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual, facsimile or electronic signature.

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

A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

2.4Registrar and Paying Agent.

(a)The Company shall maintain (i) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and (ii) a Paying Agent. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars. The term “Paying Agent” includes the Paying Agent and any additional paying agents. The Company may change the Paying Agent without notice to any Holder. The Company initially appoints the Trustee as (i) Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Notes and (ii) the Securities Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

(b)The Company shall enter into an appropriate and customary agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall receive appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.06. The Company or any of its domestically-organized wholly owned subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

(c)The Company may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) if applicable, acceptance of an appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Company and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) written notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Company and the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as Paying Agent or Registrar only if the Trustee also

resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08. Any resignation or removal of the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.08 shall automatically constitute a resignation or removal of the Trustee as Paying Agent or Registrar.

2.5Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each due date of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on any Note, the Company shall deposit with each Paying Agent (or if the Company or a domestically-organized wholly owned subsidiary is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium and interest when so becoming due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that a Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company acts or a domestically-organized wholly owned subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. During the continuance of a Default under this Indenture, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.05, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

2.6Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish, or cause the Registrar to furnish, to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders.

2.7Transfer and Exchange. The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with the Appendix. When a Note is presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements therefor are met. When Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section 2.07. The Company shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or of any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed or tendered and not withdrawn in connection with a Change of Control Offer or Asset Disposition Offer or to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date or interest payment date.

Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, each Paying Agent and the Registrar shall deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, a Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Any Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such beneficial interest, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note shall be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent) or (b) any Holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

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

The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. Neither the Trustee nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the depositary with which the Global Note is registered.

2.8Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate (upon receipt of an Authentication Order) a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Company or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company or the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Company and the Trustee. Such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of (i) the Trustee to protect the Trustee or (ii) the Company, to protect the Company, the Trustee, a Paying Agent and the Registrar, from any loss or liability that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge the Holder for the Company’s or Trustee’s expenses in replacing a Note (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements in replacing such Note). In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof. Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company.

The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes.

2.9Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, those replaced pursuant to Section 2.08, those described in this Section 2.09 and those paid in accordance with Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Subject to Section 12.05, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; provided that Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Paragraph 5(d) of the Notes.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.08.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue from and after the date of such payment.

If a Paying Agent (other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and no Paying Agent is prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

2.10Temporary Notes. In the event that Definitive Notes are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee upon receipt of an Authentication Order shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and make them available for delivery in exchange for temporary Notes upon surrender of such temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company, without charge to the Holder. Until such exchange, temporary Notes shall be entitled to the same rights, benefits and privileges as Definitive Notes.

2.11Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and each 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, replacement, payment or cancellation and shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its then customary procedures. Certification of the cancellation of all canceled Notes shall be delivered to the Company, upon written request of the Company. The Company shall not issue new Notes to replace Notes they have redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Trustee shall not authenticate Notes in place of canceled Notes other than pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

2.12Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Company shall pay the defaulted interest then borne by the Notes (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful), in any lawful manner. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date and shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed or electronically delivered to each affected Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.

2.13CUSIP Numbers and ISINs. The Company in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers and ISINs (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers and

ISINs in notices of redemption or exchange or offers to purchase as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no liability for any defect in any CUSIP numbers as they appear on the Notes, on any notice or elsewhere; provided further 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, exchange or offer to purchase, that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes and that any such redemption, exchange or offer to purchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The CUSIP numbers and ISINs, if any, for any Additional Notes will contain a 3(c)(7) security indicator. The Company shall advise the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers or ISINs.

2.14Calculation of Specified Percentage of Notes. With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the Holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Notes, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Notes, the Holders of which have so consented by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination, of the Notes then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, Section 2.09 and Section 12.05 of this Indenture. Any such calculation made pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be made by the Company and communicated to the Trustee in an Officer’s Certificate.

3
REDEMPTION

3.1Redemption. The Notes may be redeemed, in whole, or from time to time in part, subject to the conditions and at the redemption prices set forth in Paragraph 5 of the form of Notes set forth in Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date.

3.2Applicability of Article. Redemption of Notes at the election of the Company or otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision of this Indenture (including the optional redemption provisions of Paragraph 5 of the Notes), shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article 3.

3.3Notices to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Paragraph 5 of the Notes, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of (i) the particular provision of Paragraph 5 of the Notes pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, (iv) the redemption price, if then ascertainable and (v) any condition precedent to such redemption pursuant to Section 3.05(c). The Company shall give written notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section 3.03 at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date if the redemption is pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Notes, unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee. Any such notice may be canceled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being sent to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect.

3.4Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time or purchased in a Change of Control Offer, the applicable Notes will be selected for redemption in compliance with the requirements of DTC, or if such Notes are not held through DTC or DTC prescribes no method of selection, by lot or on a pro rata basis, or such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems fair and appropriate; provided, however, that no Note of $200,000 in aggregate principal amount or less shall be redeemed or purchased in part. The Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected from outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. Notes and portions of them selected shall be in

amounts of $200,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

After the redemption date, upon surrender of a Note to be redeemed in part only, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note, representing the same debt to the extent not redeemed, shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note (or appropriate book entries shall be made to reflect such partial redemption).

3.5Notice of Optional Redemption.

(a)At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Notes, the Company shall send or cause to be delivered, electronically or by first-class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed to such Holder’s registered address, with a copy to the Trustee, or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depository, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if such notice is issued in connection with a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance pursuant to Article 8 hereof or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 10 hereof.

Any such notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

(i)the redemption date;

(ii)the redemption price and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date; provided that in connection with a redemption pursuant to Paragraph 5(b) of the Notes, the notice need not set forth the redemption price but only the manner of calculation thereof;

(iii)the name and address of a Paying Agent;

(iv)that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to a Paying Agent to collect the redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date;

(v)if fewer than all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the certificate numbers (if applicable) and principal amounts of the particular Notes to be redeemed, the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after such partial redemption;

(vi)that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or any Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Notes (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(vii)the Paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;

(viii)if applicable, any condition to such redemption;

(ix)the CUSIP number and ISIN, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed; and

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

(b)At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 15 days (unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee) prior to the redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice. In such event, the Company shall provide the Trustee in writing with the information required by this Section 3.05.

(c)Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a transaction or an event (including an Equity Offering, an incurrence of Indebtedness, tender offer, defeasance, satisfaction, discharge, Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control) may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or occurrence thereof and any such redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, including, the completion or occurrence of the related transaction or event. If such redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until any or all such conditions shall have been satisfied or waived or the redemption may be rescinded in the event any such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the original redemption date or the redemption date so delayed.

3.6Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is provided in accordance with Section 3.05, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice (except to the extent such redemption is conditional as set forth in Section 3.05(c)). Upon surrender to any Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date; provided, however, that if the redemption date is after a regular record date and on or prior to the interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant record date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

3.7Deposit of Redemption Price.

(ii)in any such Asset Disposition, or series of related Asset Dispositions (except to the extent the Asset Disposition is a Permitted Asset Swap), at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset Disposition received by the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; and

(iii)an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be:

(A)to the extent the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary elects (or is required by the terms of any Indebtedness) within 365 days from the later of (A) the date of such Asset Disposition and (B) the receipt of such Net Available Cash, (x) to prepay, repay or purchase any Indebtedness of a Non-Guarantor, Indebtedness that is secured by a Lien or Permitted Funding Indebtedness (in each case, other than Indebtedness owed to the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary); provided that, in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (1), the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related commitment (if any) to be reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased; or (y) to prepay, repay or purchase Pari Passu Indebtedness; provided that, to the extent the Company redeems, repays or repurchases Pari Passu Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (y), the Company shall equally and ratably reduce obligations under the Notes pursuant to Article 3 herein and Paragraph 5 of the Notes, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Disposition Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes

at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid; or

(B)to the extent the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary elects, to invest in Additional Assets (including Financeable Assets and by means of an investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with Net Available Cash received by the Parent Guarantor or another Restricted Subsidiary) within 365 days from the later of (x) the date of such Asset Disposition and (y) the receipt of such Net Available Cash; provided, however, that any such reinvestment in Additional Assets made pursuant to a definitive binding agreement or a commitment approved by the Board of Directors of the Parent Guarantor that is executed or approved within such time will satisfy this requirement, so long as such investment is consummated within 180 days of such 365th day;

provided that, pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash in accordance with clause (1) or clause (2) above, the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness (including Permitted Funding Indebtedness) or otherwise use such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

(b)Any Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions that is not applied or invested or committed to be applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds” under this Indenture. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds under this Indenture exceeds the greater of (i) $25.0 million and (ii) 2.0% of Consolidated Total Assets, the Company shall within 10 Business Days be required to make an offer (“Asset Disposition Offer”) to all Holders of Notes issued under this Indenture and, to the extent required by the terms of any other outstanding Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of such other outstanding Pari Passu Indebtedness, to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Asset Disposition Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in respect of the Notes in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase.

(c)To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. Upon completion of any Asset Disposition Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

(d)To the extent that any portion of Net Available Cash payable in respect of the Notes is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the amount thereof payable in respect of the Notes shall not exceed the net amount of funds in U.S. dollars that is actually received by the Company upon converting such portion into U.S. dollars.

(e)For the purposes of clause (ii) of Section 4.08(a), the following will be deemed to be cash:

(i)the assumption by the transferee of Indebtedness or other liabilities contingent or otherwise of the Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or a Guarantor) and the release of the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on such Indebtedness or other liability in connection with such Asset Disposition;

(c)For purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to and in compliance with, this Section 4.09:

(i)in the event that all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.09(a) and Section 4.09(b), the Parent Guarantor, in its sole discretion, will classify such Indebtedness and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of the clauses of Section 4.09(a) or Section 4.09(b). Indebtedness outstanding on the date of this Indenture under the Credit Agreement, if any, shall be treated at all times as Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(b)(i);

(ii)additionally, all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness may later be reclassified as having been Incurred pursuant to any type of Indebtedness described in Section 4.09(a) and Section 4.09(b) so long as such Indebtedness is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to such provision and any related Liens are permitted to be Incurred at the time of reclassification;

(iii)Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments relating to, or Liens securing, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included;

(iv)if obligations in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments are Incurred pursuant to any Credit Facility and relate to other Indebtedness, then such letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments shall be treated as Incurred pursuant to such Credit Facility and such other Indebtedness shall not be included;

(v)the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary, or Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof;

(vi)Indebtedness permitted by this Section 4.09 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 4.09 permitting such Indebtedness; and

(vii)the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined on the basis of GAAP.

(d)Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred

Stock or Disqualified Stock or the reclassification of commitments or obligations not treated as Indebtedness due to a change in GAAP will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.09. The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (i) the accreted value thereof in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount and (ii) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, or liquidation preference thereof, in the case of any other Indebtedness.

(e)If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 4.09, the Company shall be in default of this Section 4.09).

(f)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

(g)The Parent Guarantor shall not, and shall not permit the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor, the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to other Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor, the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be.

(h)Under this Indenture, (1) unsecured Indebtedness will not be treated as subordinated or junior to secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured or (2) senior Indebtedness will not be treated as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral or is secured by different collateral or because it is guaranteed by different obligors.

4.10Limitation on Restricted Payments

(a)The Parent Guarantor shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to:

Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor), whether owned on the Issue Date or acquired after that date, which Lien secures any Indebtedness (such Lien, the “Initial Lien”), without effectively providing that the Notes shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) the obligations so secured for so long as such obligations are so secured.

(b)The provisions of Section 4.12(a) will not prohibit:

(i)any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to (1) any Credit Facilities or (2) any other agreement or instrument, in each case, in effect at or entered into on the Issue Date;

transactions pursuant to which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by the Parent Guarantor or the Company or was merged, consolidated or otherwise combined with or into the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary or entered into in contemplation of or in connection with such transaction) and outstanding on such date; provided that, for the purposes of this clause, if another Person is the Successor Company or Successor Parent Guarantor, any Subsidiary thereof or agreement or instrument of such Person or any such Subsidiary shall be deemed acquired or assumed by the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary when such Person becomes the Successor Company or Successor Parent Guarantor, as applicable;

(xii)any encumbrance or restriction arising pursuant to an agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness permitted to be Incurred subsequent to the Issue Date pursuant to Section 4.09 if the encumbrances and restrictions contained in any such agreement or instrument, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the Holders than in comparable financings (as determined in good faith by the Parent

Guarantor) and where either (a) the Parent Guarantor determines at the time of issuance of such Indebtedness that such encumbrances or restrictions will not adversely affect, in any material respect, the Company’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes or (b) such encumbrance or restriction applies only during the continuance of a default relating to such Indebtedness;

4.13Limitation on Affiliate Transactions.

(a)The Parent Guarantor shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million unless:

(i)the terms of such Affiliate Transaction taken as a whole are not materially less favorable to the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction or the execution of the agreement providing for such transaction in arm’s length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate (as determined by the Parent Guarantor in good faith); and

(ii)in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate value in excess of $20.0 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Parent Guarantor .

(x)any transaction between or among the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Person that is an Affiliate of the Parent Guarantor (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) solely because the Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

(xi)issuances or sales of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Parent Guarantor or options, warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock and the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith or any contribution to capital of the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary;

(xiii)any purchases by the Parent Guarantor’s Affiliates of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of the Parent Guarantor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries the majority of which Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock is purchased by Persons who are not the Parent Guarantor’s Affiliates; provided that such purchases by the Parent Guarantor’s Affiliates are on the same terms as such purchases by such Persons who are not the Parent Guarantor’s Affiliates.

4.14Suspension of Covenants on Achievement of Investment Grade Status.

Following the first day:

(a)the Notes have achieved Investment Grade Status; and

(b)no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, then, beginning on that day (the “Suspension Date”) and continuing until the Reversion Date (as defined below), the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the following provisions of this Indenture (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”):

(i)Section 4.08;

(ii)Section 4.09;

(iii)Section 4.10;

(iv)Section 4.12;

(v)Section 4.13;

(vi)Section 4.15; and

(vii)clause (iii) of Section 5.01(a).

If at any time the Notes cease to have such Investment Grade Status or if a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then the Suspended Covenants will thereafter be reinstated as if such covenants had never been suspended (the “Reversion Date”) and be applicable pursuant to the terms of this Indenture (including in connection with performing any calculation or assessment to determine compliance with the terms of this Indenture), unless and until the Notes subsequently attain Investment Grade Status and no Default or Event of Default is in existence with respect to the Notes (in which event the Suspended Covenants shall no longer be in effect for such time that the Notes maintain an Investment Grade Status and no Default or Event of Default is in existence); provided, however, that no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to exist under this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees with respect to the Suspended Covenants based on, and none of the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for, any actions taken or events occurring during the

Suspension Period (as defined below) or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising during the Suspension Period (provided that such contractual obligation is not entered into in connection with, or in contemplation of, a Reversion Date), regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. The period of time between the Suspension Date and the Reversion Date is referred to as the “Suspension Period.” During the Suspension Period, no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

On the Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or one of the clauses set forth in Section 4.09(b) (to the extent such Indebtedness would be permitted to be Incurred thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to the Indebtedness Incurred prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness would not be so permitted to be Incurred pursuant to the Sections 4.09(a) and (b), such Indebtedness will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted under clause (iv)(2) of Section 4.09(b). On and after the Reversion Date, all Liens created during the Suspension Period will be considered Permitted Liens. Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.10 will be made as though the provisions of Section 4.10 had been in effect since the Issue Date and throughout the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.10(a). For purposes of Section 4.08, on the Reversion Date, the unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will be reset to zero.

The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any Suspension Date or Reversion Date. The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor the ratings of the Notes, shall not be deemed to have any knowledge of the ratings of the Notes, and shall have no duty to inform the Holders if the Notes achieve Investment Grade Status or of the occurrence of a Reversion Date or to independently determine if such events have occurred.

4.15Additional Note Guarantees.

(a)If the Parent Guarantor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary that is a Restricted Subsidiary, other than an Excluded Subsidiary, and such Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary Guarantees any Indebtedness under a Credit Facility (including the Revolving Credit Facility) or Guarantees any Capital Markets Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor or any Guarantor in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $50.0 million, such Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days shall execute and deliver a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for a Note Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary. If a Restricted Subsidiary ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary, such Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days shall execute and deliver a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for a Note Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

(b)The Parent Guarantor or the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor. The Parent Guarantor or the Company may also elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Parent to become a Guarantor.

(c)Any Guarantor that makes a payment under its Note Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all obligations that are Guaranteed under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment, determined in accordance with GAAP.

(d)Each Note Guarantee shall be released in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.06.

4.16Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a)Except for during a Suspension Period, the Board of Directors of the Parent Guarantor may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as Unrestricted will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.10 or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Parent Guarantor. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(b)Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Parent Guarantor giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complies with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.10. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09, the Company will be in default of such covenant.

(c)The Board of Directors of the Parent Guarantor may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor if that redesignation would not cause a Default; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09; (2) all Liens of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such designation would, if Incurred at such time, have been permitted to be Incurred for all purposes of this Indenture; and (3) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. Any such designation by the Board of Directors of the Parent Guarantor shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Parent Guarantor giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate.

4.17Payment of Additional Amounts.

(a)All payments made by or on behalf of any of the Guarantors under or with respect to its Guarantee will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction in which any Guarantor, is then incorporated, organized, engaged in business for tax purposes or resident for tax purposes, or any

political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by or on behalf of any Guarantor (each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”), will at any time be required to be made from any payments made by or on behalf of any of the Guarantors with respect to any Guarantee, including, without limitation, payments of principal, redemption price, purchase price, interest or premium, the relevant Guarantor will pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by each Holder or beneficial owner of a Note (including payments of Additional Amounts) after such withholding, deduction will equal the respective amounts that would have been received in respect of such payments in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to:

(i)any Taxes imposed by the United States or any political subdivision therein or any authority thereof or therein having the power to tax;

(ii)any Taxes that would not have been imposed but for the Holder or beneficial owner (or a fiduciary, settler, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation) of the Notes being a resident of, incorporated in or carrying on a business in the relevant Tax Jurisdiction in which such Taxes are imposed, or due to the existence of a permanent establishment, a dependent agent, or a fixed place of business, present or deemed present in the Tax Jurisdiction or having any other present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction in which such Taxes are imposed other than by the mere acquisition or holding of any Note or the enforcement or receipt of payment under or in respect of any Note or any Guarantee;

(iii)any Taxes imposed or withheld as a result of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to comply with any written request, made to that Holder or beneficial owner in writing before any such withholding or deduction would be payable, by any of the Guarantors to provide timely or accurate information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such holder or beneficial owner or to make any valid or timely declaration or similar claim or satisfy any certification information or other reporting requirements (to the extent such holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to do so), which is required or imposed by a statute, regulation or administrative practice of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from deduction or withholding of such Taxes;

(iv)any Taxes that are imposed or withheld as a result of the presentation of any note for payment more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the holder (except to the extent that the holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period);

(v)any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property, wealth, capital gains or similar Taxes;

(vi)any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments made under or with respect to the Notes or any Guarantee;

(vii)any Taxes that were imposed with respect to any payment on a Note to any holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that no Additional Amounts would have been payable had the beneficial owner of the applicable Note been the holder of such Note;

(viii)any Taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that would not have been imposed but for a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;

(ix)any Taxes imposed or withheld pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code as in effect on the date of issuance of the Notes or any successor or amended version of these provisions, any regulations promulgated thereunder, any official interpretations thereof, any similar law or regulation adopted pursuant to an intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States with respect to the foregoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code; or

(x)any combination of items (i) through (ix) above.

(b)The Guarantors will pay and indemnify the Holder or beneficial owner for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, transfer, court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise, property or similar Taxes levied by any jurisdiction on or in connection with the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any Guarantee (other than on or in connection with a transfer of a Note that occurs after the initial sales thereof by the Initial Purchaser) or any other document or instrument referred to therein, or the receipt of any payments with respect thereto (limited, solely in the case of Taxes attributable to the receipt of any payments with respect thereto, to any such Taxes imposed in a relevant Tax Jurisdiction that are not excluded under Section 4.17(i) through (v) and (vii) through (ix) or any combination thereof).

(c)If any Guarantor becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to any Guarantee, the relevant Guarantor will deliver to the Trustee on a date at least 30 days prior to the date of payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the relevant Guarantor shall notify the Trustee promptly thereafter) an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable. The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agent to pay Additional Amounts on the relevant payment date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely on such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary. The relevant Guarantor will provide the Trustee with documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts.

(d)The relevant Guarantor will make all withholdings and deductions required by law and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with applicable law. The relevant Guarantor will use its reasonable efforts to obtain Tax receipts from each Tax authority evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld. The relevant Guarantor will furnish to the Trustee, within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld is made, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing payment by the Guarantor or if, notwithstanding such entity’s efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are not obtained, other evidence of payments by such entity.

(e)Whenever this Indenture mentions the payment of amounts based on the principal amount, interest of any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any Guarantee, such mention shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

(f)The obligations set forth in this Section 4.17 will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture, any transfer by a Holder or beneficial owner of its

Notes, and will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to any Guarantor is then incorporated, organized, engaged in business or resident for tax purposes or any jurisdiction from or through which any payment under, or with respect to any Guarantee) is made by, or on behalf of, such Person and any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein having the power to tax.

(iii)immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions, either (x) the Successor Company would be able to Incur at least an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or (y) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Successor Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be no less than it was immediately prior to such transaction; and

(ii)results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its stated final maturity;

6.2Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e) or (f) with respect to the Company or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by written notice to the Company or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Company and the Trustee may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be due and payable immediately. In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d) has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if the event of default or payment default triggering such Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d) shall be remedied or cured, or waived by the holders of the Indebtedness, or the Indebtedness that gave rise to such Event of Default shall have been discharged in full, in each case, within 30 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if (a) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (b) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium or interest, if any, on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e) or (f) with respect to the Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.

6.3Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes, the Note Guarantees or this Indenture.

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

6.4Waiver of Past Defaults. Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes outstanding under this Indenture by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders waive all past or existing Defaults or Events of Default and rescind any such acceleration with respect to such Notes and its consequences if (1) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Defaults and Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived, except (a) a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on a Note held by a non-consenting Holder or (b) a Default or Event

of Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default is waived, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

6.5Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (provided that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any direction is unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee shall receive indemnification satisfactory to it against all fees, losses, liabilities and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

6.6Limitation on Suits.

(a)Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

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

(ii)the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding have requested in writing the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(iii)such Holder or Holders have offered in writing and, if requested, provided to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

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

(v)the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a written direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

(b)A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder (it being understood that the Trustee has no affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders).

6.7Rights of the Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the contractual 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 or provided for in the Notes, 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.

6.8Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and (to the extent lawful) on any

unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Notes) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.06.

6.9Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation, costs, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee (including counsel, accountants, experts or such other professionals as the Trustee deems reasonably necessary, advisable or appropriate)) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes, including any Guarantors), its creditors or its property, shall be entitled to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matters and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, costs, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06.

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

6.10Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee, its agents and its counsel for amounts due under this Indenture;

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 and interest, respectively; and

THIRD: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct, including a Guarantor, if applicable.

The Trustee, upon prior written notice to the Company, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall send to each Holder and the Company a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

6.11Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to

Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

6.12Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.08, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy is, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

6.13Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding has been instituted.

6.14Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

6.15Noteholder Direction.

(a)Any notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take any other action (a “Noteholder Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (other than any Holder that is a Regulated Bank) (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such Holder to the Company and the Trustee that such Holder is not (or, in the case such Holder is the DTC or its nominee, that such Holder is being instructed solely by beneficial owners that have represented to such Holder that they are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction relating to a notice of Default shall be deemed repeated at all times until the resulting Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist or the Notes are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder is deemed, at the time of providing a Noteholder Direction, to covenant to provide the Company with such other information as the Company may reasonably request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such Directing Holder’s Position Representation within five Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). In any case in which the Holder is the nominee of the DTC, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the beneficial owner of such Notes in lieu of the nominee of the DTC and the DTC shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Position Representation and Verification Covenant in delivering its direction to the Trustee. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to the acceleration of the Notes, the Company determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe a Directing Holder providing such Noteholder Direction was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and the Company provides to the Trustee (i) an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the Company has (x) a good faith reasonable basis to believe that one or more Directing Holders were at any relevant time in breach of their Position Representation or their Verification Covenant and (ii) evidence that the Company has filed

papers with a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation, and seeking to invalidate any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to such Event of Default shall be automatically stayed pending a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company provides to the Trustee such Officer’s Certificate stating that a Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant, the cure period with respect to any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction shall be automatically stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant. Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such Directing Holder’s participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if, without the participation of such Directing Holder, the percentage of Notes held by the remaining Holders that provided such Noteholder Direction would have been insufficient to validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio (other than any indemnity and/or security such Directing Holder may have offered or provided to the Trustee), with the effect that such Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred and the Trustee shall be deemed not to have received such Noteholder Direction. If the Directing Holder has satisfied its Verification Covenant (and the Company has not determined in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe such Verification Covenant has not been satisfied as set forth above), then the Trustee shall be permitted to act in accordance with such Noteholder Direction. Notwithstanding the above, if such Directing Holder’s participation is not required to achieve the requisite level of consent of Holders required under this Indenture to give such Noteholder Direction, the Trustee shall be permitted to act in accordance with such Noteholder Direction notwithstanding any action taken or to be taken by the Company (as described above). In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.15(a) shall not apply to any Holder that is a Regulated Bank; provided that if a Regulated Bank is a Directing Holder or a beneficial owner directing the DTC, it shall provide a written representation to the Company that it is a Regulated Bank.

(b)For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Noteholder Direction delivered to it in accordance with this Indenture, shall have no duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any Position Representation, enforce compliance with any Verification Covenant, verify any statements in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments, Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise. The Trustee shall have no liability to the Company, any Holder or any other Person in acting in good faith on a Noteholder Direction, or Officer’s Certificate.

TRUSTEE

7.1Duties of Trustee.

(a)If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will 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.

100

(c)Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) shall be entitled to, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, request and conclusively rely upon a Board Resolution, an Opinion of Counsel or an Officer’s Certificate.

(e)The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered and, if requested, provided to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(f)The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, judgement, bond, debenture, note, coupon or other paper or document, but the Trustee may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times during normal business hours to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney.

(g)The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any act, omission, misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.

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

Nothing herein shall require the Trustee to provide a notice to the Company in accordance with Section 6.01(c) absent a direction from Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (subject to the Trustee’s rights to be indemnified as provided hereunder).

(j)The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder.

101

majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to such Notes.

(m)Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate (unless other evidence is specifically prescribed herein), an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

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

(p)Anything in this Indenture notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to loss of profit), even if the Trustee has been advised as to the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(q)The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder.

(r)The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(s)If any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture, requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively and without liability rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred.

(t)The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire, no duty to determine and no duty to monitor as to the performance of the Company’s covenants in this Indenture or the financial performance of the Company; the Trustee shall be entitled to assume, until it has received written notice in accordance with this Indenture, that the Company is properly performing its duties hereunder.

7.3Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any authenticating agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its obligations hereunder. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Company’s or any Guarantor’s use of the proceeds from the sale of Notes, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent (other than itself as Paying Agent) or any money paid to the Company or any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

102

Neither the Trustee nor any authenticating agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Company of the Notes or the proceeds from the issuance thereof.

7.4May Hold Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Registrar, authenticating agent or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar, authenticating agent or such other agent. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act), it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.07.

7.5Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company.

7.6Compensation and Reimbursement and Indemnification of Trustee.

(a)The Company agrees:

(i)To pay to the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee from time to time such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder as has been agreed upon from time to time in writing (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust).

(ii)Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the costs, expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(iii)To indemnify each of the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any losses, liabilities, claims (whether involving the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person), costs and expense (including attorneys fees and expenses), arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder or of enforcing this Indenture (including this indemnity). The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend such claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel of its selection and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision.

(b)To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this section 7.06, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, particular Notes. Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this

103

Indenture, the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination for any reason of this Indenture.

(c)When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e) and (f) occurs, the expenses and compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration for purposes of priority under Title 11, U.S. Code, or any similar Federal, State or analogous foreign law for the relief of debtors.

(d)The provisions of this Section 7.06 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the satisfaction, termination or discharge of this Indenture.

If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of Federal, State, Territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.

7.8Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

(ii)the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case, the

104

Company by or pursuant to a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to all Notes, or any Holder of a Note who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Notes and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

(e)If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of a notice of resignation or the delivery of an act of removal, the Trustee resigning or being removed may petition any court of competent jurisdiction at the expense of the Company for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(f)If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause with respect to the Notes, the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Notes. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall be appointed by act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and the address of the Corporate Trust Office.

7.9Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

(a)In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, every such successor Trustee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on written request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for in Section 7.06.

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided that such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes. In case any Notes shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any such successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Notes, in either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee, with the full force and effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

7.11Notice of Default. If a Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives written notice of such occurrence by the Company or any Holder, the Trustee must give notice of the Default to the Holders within 60 days after being notified by the Company or any Holder. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice from the Holders if the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders.

DEFEASANCE

8.1Option To Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may, at its option, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof applied to all outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

8.2Legal Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to this Indenture, all outstanding Notes and the Note Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). 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 provisions of this Indenture referred to in (a) through (c) below (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes), and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture, including those of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, upon written request of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute such instruments reasonably requested by the Company acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

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

106

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

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

(d)this Article 8.

Following the Company’s exercise of its Legal Defeasance option, 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 hereof.

8.3Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16 and clause (iii) of Section 5.01(a) with respect to the outstanding Notes, and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Note Guarantees, on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the 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 hereof, but, except as specified in this Section 8.03, the remainder of this Indenture and the Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(c) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance), Section 6.01(d), Section 6.01(e) (other than with respect to the Parent Guarantor or the Company), Section 6.01(f) (other than with respect to Parent Guarantor and the Company), Section 6.01(g) and Section 6.01(h).

(i)the Company shall irrevocably deposit in trust (the “defeasance trust”) with the Trustee cash in dollars or U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof, as will be sufficient, without reinvestment, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be; provided, that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited in respect of the Applicable Premium shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is

107

deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption and that the obligation to deposit any deficit as of the date of redemption (any such amount, the “Applicable Premium Deficit”) with the Trustee on or prior to the date of redemption shall survive (any Applicable Premium Deficit shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit (unless otherwise required by applicable DTC procedures) that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption); provided that the Trustee shall have no liability whatsoever in the event that such Applicable Premium Deficit is not in fact paid after any legal defeasance or covenant defeasance;

(ii)the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States stating that beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred (and in the case of Legal Defeasance only, such Opinion of Counsel in the United States must be based on a ruling of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or change in applicable U.S. federal income tax law since the Issue Date);

(iii)no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness) (and the incurrence of Liens associated with any such borrowings));

(iv)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 and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiaries is bound;

(v)the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying, defrauding or preferring any creditors of the Company; and

(vi)the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion of counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to legal defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

(b)Before or after a deposit, the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of the Notes at a future date in accordance with Article 3.

8.5Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations (including proceeds thereof) deposited with it pursuant to this Article 8.

Each of the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Company upon request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article 8 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance in accordance with this Article 8.

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

8.7Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations. The Company shall pay and shall jointly and severally indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.

8.8Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes so discharged or defeased shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the Trustee or any Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest with respect to the Notes because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of the Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent.

However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of the Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date on which the consent or waiver becomes effective. After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder.

Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

GUARANTEES

11.1Guarantees.

(a) Subject to this Article 11, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (1) the principal, premium, if any, and interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Failing payment by the Company when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b)The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the extent it may lawfully do so) diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture, or pursuant to Section 11.06.

(c)Each of the Guarantors also agrees, jointly and severally, to pay the Trustee’s ordinary and extraordinary fees and expenses and the costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 11.01.

(d)If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

(e)Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as

114

between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantees.

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

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

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

11.2Limitation on Guarantor Liability. Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance or a fraudulent transfer for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 11, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Note Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment, determined in accordance with GAAP.

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

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

(e)If required by Section 4.15, the Company shall cause any newly created or acquired Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 and this Article 11, to the extent applicable.

11.4Subrogation.

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.01; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Company under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full.

11.5Benefits Acknowledged.

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