W  I  T  N  E  S  S  E  T  H

 

WHEREAS, the Company, the Reaffirming Parties and Speed Acquisition Vehicle, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Speed”), have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of November 2, 2010, providing for the issuance of an aggregate principal amount of up to $200,000,000 of 71/8% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “Notes”);

 

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Subsidiary Guarantee”);

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee and the Company are authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture; and

 



 

WHEREAS, on the date hereof Speed merged with and into ACP.

 

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

 

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

 

2.             Agreement to Guarantee.  Effective as of December 1, 2010, ACP and ACP Medical, and effective as of December 7, 2010, Liberty, hereby agrees, jointly and severally with all existing Subsidiary Guarantors, to unconditionally guarantee the Company’s Obligations under the Notes on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Article 10 of the Indenture and to be bound by all other applicable provisions of the Indenture and the Notes and to perform all of the obligations and agreements of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture.

 

3.             Execution and Delivery.  Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the Subsidiary Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

 

4.             No Recourse Against Others.  No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder or agent of each Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.  Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission that such a waiver is against public policy.

 

5.             Ratification of Indenture and Notation of Guarantee; Supplemental Indenture Part of Indenture.  Except as expressly amended hereby, the Indenture and the Notation of Guarantee, dated as of November 2, 2010, among the Company, the Reaffirming Parties and Speed, are in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, conditions and provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect. This Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for all purposes, and every holder of Notes heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered shall be bound hereby.

 

6.             New York Law to Govern.  THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

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

 

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

 

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