The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, suffer to exist any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of such Restricted Subsidiary: (i) to pay, directly or indirectly, dividends or make any other distributions in respect of its Capital Stock or other ownership interests or pay any Debt or other obligation owed to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) to make loans or advances to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary, or (iii) to sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Company or any Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary, except, in any such case, any encumbrance or restriction existing pursuant to: (a) the Notes, the Indenture, the Senior Guarantees or any other agreement in effect on the date of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture; (b) the Credit Facility, including any Guarantees of or Liens securing the Debt Incurred thereunder; (c) an agreement relating to any Debt Incurred by such Subsidiary prior to the date on which such Subsidiary was acquired by the Company and outstanding on such date and not incurred in anticipation of becoming a Subsidiary; (d) an agreement which has been entered into for the pending sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock, other ownership interests or assets of such Subsidiary, provided that such restriction terminates upon consummation or abandonment of such disposition and upon termination of such agreement; (e) customary non-assignment provisions in leases and other agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business; (f) restrictions contained in any security agreement (including a capital lease) securing Debt permitted to be Incurred under this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture that impose restrictions of the nature described in clause (iii) above on the property subject to the Lien of such security agreement; (g) an agreement effecting a renewal, extension, refinancing or refunding of Debt incurred pursuant to an agreement referred to in clause (a), (b) or (f) above; provided, however, that the provisions relating to such encumbrance or restriction contained in such renewal, extension, refinancing or refunding agreement are no more restrictive in any material respect than the provisions contained in the agreement it replaces, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors; or (h) such encumbrance or restriction is the result of applicable corporate law or regulation relating to the payment of dividends or distributions.

Allied shall not, and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, Incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired to secure Debt of Allied, the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: (a) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and (b) the Company delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10 million, either: (i) a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (a) above and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors, or (ii) an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions: (a) customary directors’ fees, indemnification or similar arrangements or any employment agreement or other compensation plan or arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business including ordinary course loans to employees not to exceed: (i) $5 million outstanding in the aggregate at any time, and (ii) $2 million to any one employee and consistent with the past practice of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary; (b) loans by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to employees of Allied or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with management incentive plans not to exceed $25 million at any time outstanding; provided that such limitation shall not apply to loans the proceeds of which are used to purchase common stock of: (i) the Company from the Company, or (ii) Allied from Allied if and to the extent that Allied utilizes the proceeds thereof to acquire Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Interests) of the Company; (c) transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries; (d) payments of customary fees by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to investment banking firms and financial advisors made for any financial advisory, financing, underwriting or placement services or in respect of other investment banking activities, including, without limitation, in connection with acquisitions or divestitures which are approved by a majority of the Board of Directors in good faith; (e) any agreement as in effect on the date of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture or any amendment thereto (so long as such amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes in any material respect) or any transaction contemplated thereby; and (f) Restricted Payments that are permitted by the provisions of subsection 12(e) of this Section 1.01 of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture.

Whether or not Allied is required to be subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision thereto, the Company (or Allied for so long as the Company is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Allied) shall file with the Commission the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Company (or Allied for so long as the Company is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Allied) would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to such Section 13(a) or 15(d) or any successor provision thereto if the Company (or Allied for so long as the Company is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Allied) were so required, such documents to be filed with the Commission on or prior to the respective dates (the “Required Filing Dates”) by which the Company would have been required so to file such documents if the Company were so required. The Company shall also in any event: (a) within 15 days of each Required Filing Date file with the Trustee copies of the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Company (or Allied for so long as the Company is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Allied) filed with the Commission pursuant to such Section 13(a) or 15(d) or any successor provisions thereto or would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to such Section 13(a) or 15(d) or any successor provisions thereto if the Company (or Allied for so long as the Company is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Allied) were required to comply with such Sections, and (b) if filing such documents by the Company (or Allied for so long as the Company is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Allied) with the Commission is not permitted under the Exchange Act, promptly upon written request supply copies of such documents to any prospective Holder.

The Company at any time may designate any Person that is a Subsidiary, or after the date of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture becomes a Subsidiary, of the Company as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary,” whereupon (and until such Person ceases to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary) such Person and each other Person that is then or thereafter becomes a Subsidiary of such Person shall be deemed to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary. In addition, the Company may at any time terminate the status of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary and each other Subsidiary of the Company (if any) of which such Subsidiary is a Subsidiary shall be a Restricted Subsidiary.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no change in the status of a Subsidiary of the Company from a Restricted Subsidiary to an Unrestricted Subsidiary or from an Unrestricted Subsidiary to a Restricted Subsidiary will be effective, and no Person may otherwise become a Restricted Subsidiary, if:

(i) in the case of any change in status of a Restricted Subsidiary to an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the Restricted Payment resulting from such change, would violate the provisions of clause (3) of the first paragraph of subsection 12(e) of this Section 1.01 of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture; or

(ii) such change or other event would otherwise result (after the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both) in an Event of Default.

In addition and notwithstanding the foregoing, no Restricted Subsidiary of the Company may become an Unrestricted Subsidiary, and the status of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to have been immediately terminated (whereupon such Subsidiary and each other Subsidiary of the Company (if any) of which such Subsidiary is a Subsidiary will be a Restricted Subsidiary) at any time when:

(i) such Subsidiary (A) has outstanding Debt that is Unpermitted Debt (as defined below), or (B) owns or holds any Capital Stock of or other ownership interests in, or a Lien on any property or other assets of, the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(ii) the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary (A) provides credit support for, or a Guarantee of, any Debt of such Subsidiary (including any undertaking, agreement or instrument evidencing such Debt), or (B) is directly or indirectly liable on any Debt of such Subsidiary. Any termination of the status of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to the preceding sentence will be deemed to result in a breach of this covenant in any circumstance in which the Company would not be permitted to change the status of such Unrestricted Subsidiary to the status of a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to the preceding paragraph.

“Unpermitted Debt” means any Debt of a Subsidiary of the Company if: (x) a default thereunder (or under any instrument or agreement pursuant to or by which such Debt is issued, secured or evidenced) or any right that the Holders thereof may have to take enforcement action against such Subsidiary or its property or other assets, would permit (whether or not after the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both) the Holders of any Debt of the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary to declare the same due and payable prior to the date on which it otherwise would have become due and payable or otherwise to take any enforcement action against the Company or any such other Restricted Subsidiary, or (y) such Debt is secured by a Lien on any property or other assets of the Company and any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries.

Each Person that is or becomes a Subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed to be a Restricted Subsidiary at all times when it is a Subsidiary of the Company that is not an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Each Person that is or becomes a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed to be a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary at all times when it is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Company that is not an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(13) Mergers, Consolidations and Certain Sales of Assets. Section 7.1 of the Indenture is hereby superseded by the following in respect of the Notes:

“The Company (i) shall not consolidate with or merge into any Person; (ii) shall not permit any Person other than a Restricted Subsidiary to consolidate with or merge into the Company; and (iii) may not, directly or indirectly, in one or a series of transactions, transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; unless, in each case of (i), (ii) and (iii) above:

(1) immediately before and after giving effect to such transaction (or series) and treating any Debt Incurred by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company as a result of such transaction (or series) as having been incurred by the Company of such Subsidiary at the time of the transaction (or series), no Event of Default, or event that with the passing of time or the giving of notice, or both, will constitute an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing;

(2) in a transaction (or series) in which the Company does not survive or in which the Company transfers, conveys, sells, leases or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its properties and assets, the successor entity is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or trust and is organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and expressly assumes, by a supplemental indenture executed and delivered to the Trustee in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all the Company’s obligations under the Indenture and the Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture;

(3) if such transaction (or series) occurs prior to the occurrence of a Rating Event Date, either (x) the Company or the successor entity would, at the time of such transaction (or series) and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction (or series) had occurred at the beginning of the most recently ended four full fiscal quarter period for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of such transaction (or series), have been permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to the Consolidated EBITDA Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph under subsection 12(d) of this Section 1.01, or (y) the Consolidated EBITDA Coverage Ratio of the Company or the successor entity for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarter period for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of such transaction (or series), calculated on a pro forma basis as if such transaction (or series) had occurred at the beginning of such four full fiscal quarter period, would be no less than such Consolidated EBITDA Coverage Ratio, calculated without giving effect to such transaction or series or any other transactions (or series) that is subject to the provisions of the Indenture described in this paragraph and that occurred after the date that is twelve months before the date of such transaction (or series);

(4) if, as a result of any such transaction, property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company would become subject to a Lien prohibited by subsection 12(g) of this Section 1.01, the Company or the successor entity shall have secured the Notes as required by such covenant; and

(5) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as specified in the Indenture.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee prior to the proposed consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition an Officers’ Certificate to the foregoing effect and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the proposed consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition and such supplemental indenture comply with the Indenture and that all conditions precedent to the consummation of such transaction under this Section 7.1 have been met.”

The Security Agreements shall secure the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an interest payment date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest and Special Interest (to the extent permitted by law), if any, on the Notes and performance of all other obligations of the Company to the Holders of Notes or the Trustee under this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder. Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance thereof, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Agreements (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of the Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all documents delivered to the collateral trustee pursuant to the Security Agreements, and shall do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be necessary or proper, or as may be required by the provisions of the Security Agreements, to assure and confirm to the Trustee and the collateral trustee the security interest in the Collateral contemplated hereby, by the Security Agreements or any part thereof, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and of the Notes secured hereby, according to the intent and purposes herein expressed. The Company shall take, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to take, upon request of the Trustee, any and all actions reasonably required to cause the Security Agreements to create and maintain, as security for the obligations of the Company under this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, a valid and enforceable perfected first priority Lien in and on all the Collateral in favor of the collateral trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Notes.

(i) The Company shall furnish to the Trustee all opinions and certificates delivered by the Company in connection with the Security Agreements and such opinions and certificates shall be for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes.

(i) Subject to this subsection 14(b) of this Section 1.01 of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture, the Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by the Security Agreements at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Agreements. The collateral trustee shall execute, deliver or acknowledge any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture or the Security Agreements.

(ii) The release of any Collateral from the terms of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and the Security Agreements shall not be deemed to impair the security under this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreements. To the extent applicable, the Company shall cause TIA §313(b), relating to reports, and TIA §314(d), relating to the release of property or securities from the Lien and security interest of the Security Agreements and relating to the substitution therefor of any property or securities to be subjected to the Lien and security interest of the Security Agreements, to be complied with. The Company shall furnish to the Trustee and the collateral trustee, prior to each proposed release of Collateral pursuant to the Security Agreements, (i) all documents required by TIA §314(d) and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel, which may be rendered by internal counsel to the Company, to the effect that such accompanying documents constitute all documents required by TIA §314(d).

(iii) Any certificate or opinion required by TIA §314(d) may be made by an Officer of the Company except in cases where TIA §314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person, which Person shall be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert selected or approved by the Trustee and the collateral trustee in the exercise of reasonable care.

(iv) In the event that the Company wishes to obtain a release of any Collateral in accordance with the Security Agreements and has delivered the certificates and documents required by the Security Agreements and this subsection 14(b) of this Section 1.01 of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall determine whether it has received all documentation required by TIA §314(d) in connection with such release and, based on such determination and the Opinion of Counsel delivered pursuant to Section 10.03(b), shall deliver a certificate to the Collateral Trustee setting forth such determination. The Trustee may, to the extent permitted by the Indenture, accept as conclusive evidence of compliance with the foregoing provisions the appropriate statements contained in such documents and such Opinion of Counsel.

(c) Authorization of Actions to Be Taken by the Trustee Under the Security Agreements. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders of Notes, instruct, on behalf of the Holders of Notes, the Collateral Trustee to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to (a) enforce the rights of the Trustee and the Holders of Notes under any of the terms of the Security Agreements and (b) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the obligations of the Company under this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, provided, that in no event shall the Collateral Trustee be required to take any actions that violate the terms of the Security Agreements or the Credit Facility. The Trustee shall have power to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Trustee and the Holders of Notes in the Collateral.

(d) Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Agreements. The Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders of Notes distributed under the Security Agreements, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders of Notes according to the provisions of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture.

(e) Termination of Security Interest. Upon (1) the full and final payment and performance of all obligations of the Company under this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes; (2) the release of the Lien on the Collateral securing the BFI Notes, the Allied NA Senior Notes and all other indebtedness of Allied and its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than under the Credit Facility); or (3) the sale of any such Collateral in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall, at the request of the Company, deliver a certificate to the Collateral Trustee instructing the Collateral Trustee to release the Liens (or in the case of clause (3), the Liens on such Collateral) pursuant to this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and the Security Agreements.

(f) No Amendments to the Security Agreements. The Company shall not amend, waive or modify any provisions of the Security Agreements if such amendment, waiver or modification could reasonably be expected to adversely impact the Holder of Notes without the consent of a majority of Holder of Notes.

(g) Maintenance. The Company shall maintain as security for the obligations of the Company under this Seventeenth Supplement Indenture and the Notes, an equal and ratable sharing of the perfected security interest held by the collateral trustee under the uniform commercial code as in effect in the State of New York pursuant to the Security Agreements in the Collateral.

(15) Events of Default. (a) In addition to the Events of Default set forth in Section 5.1 of the Indenture, the Notes shall include the following additional Event of Default designated as clause (j) of such Section, which shall be deemed an Event of Default under Section 5.1 of the Indenture:

“(j) failure to perform or comply with the provisions of Section 7.1 of the Indenture (as superseded by subsection 13 of Section 1.01 of the Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture) or the provisions of subsection 12(a) or subsection 12(b) of Section 1.01 of the Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture.”

(b) In addition, Section 5.1 of the Indenture is further supplemented by adding the following paragraph thereto:

“If an Event of Default occurs at any time by reason of any willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of the Company with the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the Company would have had to pay if the Company then had elected to redeem the Notes pursuant to Article 11 of the Indenture and subsection 5 of Section 1.01 of the Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture, then, upon acceleration of the Notes, an equivalent premium shall also become and be immediately due and payable, to the extent permitted by law, anything in the Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding.”

(16) Section 8.1 of the Indenture is hereby supplemented by adding the following as subsection (m) thereof in respect of the Notes:

“(m) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes (as defined in the Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture) in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture as of the date thereof.”

(17) Section 15.4 of the Indenture is hereby supplemented to include the following as clause (d) of such Section in respect of the Notes:

“(d) In the event that any Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a guarantor under, or to pledge any of its assets to secure obligations under, the Credit Facility, such Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations under its Senior Guarantee endorsed on the Securities and under this Article 15.”

(19) Interest on any Note shall be payable only to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more predecessor Notes thereof) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

(21) The Notes shall not be issuable in definitive form except under the circumstances described in Section 2.1 of the Indenture.

(22) For all purposes, the Series A Notes and the Series B Notes shall be treated as one series of Securities under this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture.

(1) Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a true and correct copy of the Form of Note representing the Company’s Notes.

(2) Attached hereto as Exhibit B is a true and correct copy of a specimen certificate of transfer.

(3) Attached hereto as Exhibit C is a true and correct copy of a specimen certificate of exchange.

(4) Attached hereto as Exhibit D is a true and correct copy of a specimen certificate from acquiring institutional accredited investor.

(5) The form of Senior Guarantee shall be as set forth in Section 2.3 of the Indenture.

Sections 2.4, 3.2 and 3.3 of the Indenture are hereby modified and superseded as follows:

(a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.

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

(b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.02 of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture.

Section 3.5 of the Indenture is hereby modified and superseded in its entirety as follows in respect of the Notes:

(a) Transfers of Interests in Global Notes for Definitive Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes shall be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if (i) the Company delivers to the Trustee notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary, (ii) the Company in its sole discretion determines that the Global Notes (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes and delivers a written notice to such effect to the Trustee, or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default or an Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to the Notes. Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events in (i), (ii) or (iii) above, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the Participants and Indirect Participants and the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 3.6 and 3.4 of the Indenture. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.02 or Section 3.6 or 3.4 of the Indenture, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.02(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.02(b) or (c) of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture.

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth in this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require compliance with either subparagraph (i) or (ii) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

(i) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend; provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser.) Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.02(b)(i).

(ii) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.02(b)(i) above, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either (A)(1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase or (B)(1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above. Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer by the Company in accordance with Section 2.02(f) of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture, the requirements of this Section 2.02(b)(ii) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt by the Registrar of the instructions contained in the Letter of Transmittal delivered by the Holder of such beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.02(h) of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture.

(iii) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.02(b)(ii) above and the Registrar receives the following:

(A) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the 144A Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof;

(B) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof; and

(C) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the IAI Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications and certificates and Opinion of Counsel required by item (3) thereof, if applicable.

(iv) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in the Unrestricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any Holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.02(b)(ii) above and:

(A) such exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to the Exchange Offer in accordance with the applicable Registration Rights Agreement and the Holder of the beneficial interest to be transferred, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in the case of a transfer, certifies in the applicable Letter of Transmittal that it is not (1) a broker-dealer, (2) a Person participating in the distribution of the Exchange Notes or (3) a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144) of the Company;

(B) such transfer is effected pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with the applicable Registration Rights Agreement;

(C) such transfer is effected by a Broker-Dealer pursuant to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement in accordance with the applicable Registration Rights Agreement; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice; provided, however, that after such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes of such issue may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal, have been cured or waived as provided in the Indenture.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes.
