(c)                                  Terms.  The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this 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 Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuers pursuant to an Offer as provided in Section 4.07 or a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.09.  The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article 3.

Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Issuers without notice to or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise (other than with respect to the purchase price thereof and the date from which the interest accrues) as the Initial Notes; provided that the Issuers’ ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Issuers’ compliance with Section 4.03 and Section 4.06.  The Notes and any Additional Notes shall be substantially identical other than the issuance dates, offering price, transfer restrictions and, if applicable, the date from which interest shall accrue.  The Additional Notes shall be secured, equally and ratably with the Notes and any Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations, by the Note Lien on the Collateral.  Except as described under Article 9, the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes subsequently issued under this Indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase, and shall vote together with any Exchange Notes.  Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Notes” for all purposes of this Indenture include any Additional Notes that are actually issued.  Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture.

(d)                                 Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable.  The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and

34

the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

Section 2.02                                      Execution and Authentication.

At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuers by manual or facsimile signature.

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

A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form provided for in Exhibit A attached hereto, by the manual signature of the Trustee.  The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.

On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of the Issuers’ order (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes.  In addition, at any time, from time to time, the Trustee shall upon an Authentication Order authenticate and deliver any (i) Additional Notes and (ii) Exchange Notes or private exchange notes for issue only in an Exchange Offer or a private exchange, respectively, pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, for a like principal amount of Initial Notes.  Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.01, shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with Section 4.03 and Section 4.06.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuers to authenticate Notes.  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 an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuers.

Section 2.03                                       Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Issuers shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”), including an office or agency for such purposes in the City of New York, which shall initially be the corporate trust office of the Trustee located in the City of New York.  The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their transfer and exchange.  The Issuers may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents.  The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent.  The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder.  The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture.  If the Issuers fail to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such.  Either Issuer or any of their Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

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

The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee to act as the Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Notes and the Registrar to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

35

Section 2.04                                       Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

The Issuers shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or Additional Interest, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment.  While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee.  The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee.  Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than an Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money.  If an Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent.  Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.05                                       Holder 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 all Holders and shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a).  If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee at least two 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 the Holders of Notes and the Issuers shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a).

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuers and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met.  An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.  The Issuers and/or the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuers and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.08                                       Outstanding Notes.

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the 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 hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding.  Except as set forth in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

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

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

49

Section 2.09                                       Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuers, or by any Affiliate of the Issuers, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.  Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuers or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuers or of such other obligor.

Section 2.10                                       Temporary Notes.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes.  Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.  Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture.

Section 2.11                                       Cancellation.

The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act).  The Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12                                       Defaulted Interest.

If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes.  The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12.  The Trustee shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest.  The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers of such special record date.  At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder a notice at his or her

50

address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

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

Section 2.13                                       CUSIP and ISIN Numbers

The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, 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 redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Issuers will as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers.

The Issuers shall mail or cause to be mailed by first-class mail notices of redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address 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 the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 14.  Notices of redemption may not be conditional, except that any notice of redemption pursuant to Section 3.07(c) may, at an Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions, including, without limitation, completion of an Equity Offering.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers) and shall state:

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

At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the name of each Issuer and at their expense; provided that the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 5 Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph.

Section 3.04                                       Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the redemption price.  The notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice.  In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity

52

of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.  Subject to Section 3.05, on and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

Section 3.05                                       Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date.  The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuers any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuers in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

If the Issuers comply with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.  If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption or purchase date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date.  If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuers to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest accrued to the redemption or purchase date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes.

Section 3.06                                       Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuers a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.  It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

(5)                                 With respect to any dollar denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the dollar equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that such Indebtedness was incurred;

(6)                                 The outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness shall be counted only once and any obligations arising under any guarantee, Lien, letter of credit or similar instrument supporting such Indebtedness shall not be double counted; and

(7)                                 The amount of Indebtedness issued at a price less than the amount of the liability thereof shall be determined in accordance with GAAP.

Section 4.06                                       Limitation on Liens.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens of any kind, on or with respect to any of its properties other than Permitted Liens.  Additionally, neither Issuer will, and will not permit any Guarantor, to grant or suffer to exist any Lien (other than pursuant to clause (a), (d), (g), (j) or (p) of the definition of “Permitted Lien”) on any leasehold interest (as lessee) in real property of an Issuer or any Guarantor for purposes of securing any Indebtedness for money borrowed unless the Issuers shall have granted a Lien on such leasehold interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the holders of Notes and the holders of Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations ranking prior to any other Liens.

Section 4.07                                       Limitation on Sale of Assets.

(a)                                 The Company will not, and will not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate an Asset Sale unless (1) at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset Sale is received in cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets, (2) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares or assets subject to such Asset Sale, and (3) if such Asset Sale involves the disposition of Notes Priority Collateral or, after the Discharge of ABL Obligations, the disposition of ABL Priority Collateral, the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be paid directly by the purchaser of the Collateral to the Collateral Agent for deposit into the Collateral Account pending application in accordance with the provisions described below, and, if any property other than cash or Cash Equivalents is included in such Net Cash Proceeds, substantially all of such property shall be made subject to the Note Liens.

For purposes of Section 4.07(a)(1) above, the following will be deemed to be cash:

(A)                               the amount of any liabilities (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is actually assumed by the transferee in such Asset Sale and from which the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are fully and unconditionally released

65

(excluding any liabilities that are incurred in connection with or in anticipation of such Asset Sale and contingent liabilities);

(B)                               the amount of any notes, securities or other similar obligations received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that is converted, sold or exchanged within 180 days of the related Asset Sale by the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries into cash in an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds realized upon such conversion, sale or exchange; and

(C)                               the amount of any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Asset Sale; provided that the aggregate of such Designated Non-cash Consideration received in connection with Asset Sales (and still held) shall not exceed the greater of (x) $10.0 million and (y) 2.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets at any one time (with the Fair Market Value in each case being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value).

(b)                                 All or a portion of an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale may be applied by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects (or is required by the terms of any Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement or any Credit Facility):

(i)                                 to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds constitute proceeds from the sale of (x) ABL Priority Collateral or assets that are not Collateral, to repay permanently any Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Facility then outstanding as required by the terms thereof (and to effect a permanent reduction in the availability under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Facility) or (y) assets of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, to repay Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor;

(ii)                                   to acquire (or enter into a legally binding agreement to acquire), all or substantially all of the assets of, or a majority of the Voting Stock of, a Permitted Business (or in the case of an Asset Sale of ABL Priority Collateral, to acquire additional Collateral); provided that to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are received in respect of Notes Priority Collateral, such Net Cash Proceeds are applied to acquire assets substantially all of which constitute Notes Priority Collateral;

(iii)                                    to make a capital expenditure; provided that to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are received in respect of Notes Priority Collateral, such expenditures shall relate to Notes Priority Collateral; or

(iv)                                  to invest the Net Cash Proceeds (or enter into a legally binding agreement to invest) in Replacement Assets; provided that to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are received in respect of Notes Priority Collateral, substantially all of such Replacement Assets constitute Notes Priority Collateral.

Pending the final application of any such Net Cash Proceeds (other than Trust Monies), the Issuers may temporarily reduce Indebtedness or otherwise invest such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.  If any such legally binding agreement to invest such Net Cash Proceeds is entered into and the Issuers shall have not consummated such investment (or a replacement investment) within 180 days of the date of such binding agreement or within 365 days of such Asset Sale, whichever is later, such Net Cash Proceeds which were to be invested shall constitute “Excess Proceeds”.  The amount of such Net Cash Proceeds not used or invested in accordance with the preceding clauses (i)

66

through (iv) within 365 days (or such later number of days as provided in the preceding sentence) of the Asset Sale constitutes “Excess Proceeds.”

When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million, within 30 days thereof, or earlier at the option of the Issuers, the Issuers will make an offer (an “Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and (x) in the case of Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale of Notes Priority Collateral, to the holders of any other Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Section 4.07 with respect to asset sales or (y) in the case of any other Net Cash Proceeds, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Section 4.07 with respect to asset sales, in each case, equal to the Excess Proceeds.  The offer price in any Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes (and 100% of the principal amount or, if different, the accreted value of any Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations or Pari Passu Indebtedness) plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash.  If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Offer, the Issuers may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture and such remaining amount shall not be added to any subsequent Excess Proceeds for any purpose under this Indenture.  If the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and principal amount or, if different, accreted value of other Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations (in the case of Net Cash Proceeds from Notes Priority Collateral) or Notes and other Pari Passu Indebtedness (in the case of any other Net Cash Proceeds) tendered into such Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and other Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations or other Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, to be purchased on a pro rata basis.  Upon completion of each Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

(c)                                  The Company shall determine in good faith whether, and to what extent, an Asset Sale is in respect of Notes Priority Collateral and to what extent the Net Cash Proceeds in respect of an Asset Sale of Notes Priority Collateral are used to acquire or are invested in Notes Priority Collateral taking into account all relevant factors, including without limitation, the existence of structurally senior claims against the Notes Priority Collateral and the assets of an entity whose Capital Stock is subject to such Asset Sale or acquired with such Net Cash Proceeds.

(d)                                 The Issuers will comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws or regulations in connection with an Offer.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.07, the Company, or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.07 by virtue of such conflict.

Section 4.08                                       Additional Guarantees.

The Issuers will cause within ten Business Days any Restricted Subsidiary formed or acquired after the Issue Date (other than a Foreign Subsidiary, a Securitization Entity and any Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary if the Fair Market Value of such Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary, together with the Fair Market Value of all other Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries, as of such date, does not exceed in the aggregate $30.0 million) to execute and deliver a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit D providing for a Guarantee of the Notes and supplements to the applicable Security Documents in order to grant a Lien in the Collateral owned by such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent required by the Security Documents and take all actions required by the Security Documents to perfect such Lien.  In addition, to the extent the collective Fair Market Value of the Company’s Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries, as of the date of the creation of, acquisition of or Investment in a Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary, exceeds $30.0 million, the Company shall cause, within ten Business Days after such date, one or more of such Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries to similarly execute and deliver a supplemental indenture

67

in the form of Exhibit D providing for a Guarantee of the Notes and a supplement to the applicable Security Documents in order to grant a Lien in the Collateral owned by such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent required by the Security Documents such that the collective Fair Market Value of all remaining Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries does not exceed $30.0 million and take all actions required by the Security Documents to perfect such Lien.  In addition, the Company will not permit any Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Company or any other Guarantor unless such Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously delivers a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit D providing for a Guarantee of the Notes by such Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary and a joinder agreement related to the Security Documents, providing for a pledge of its assets as Collateral for the Notes to the extent required by the Security Documents and take all actions required by the Security Documents to perfect such Lien.

Section 4.09                                       Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control.

(a)                                 If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require that the Issuers purchase all or any part (in integral multiples of $1,000 except that no Note will be purchased in part if the remaining principal amount of such Note would be less than $2,000) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (a “Change of Control Offer”).  In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuers will offer to purchase all of the Notes, at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Purchase Date”) (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date).

(b)                                 Unless an Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed a notice of redemption with respect to all of the outstanding Notes pursuant to Section 3.03 within 30 days of any Change of Control or, at the Issuers’ option, prior to such Change of Control but after it is publicly announced, the Issuers must notify the Trustee and give written notice (a “Change of Control Purchase Notice”) of the Change of Control to each Holder of Notes, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at its address appearing in the Note Register.  The notice must state:

(i)                                     that a Change of Control has occurred or will occur, the date of such event, and that such Holder has the right to require the Issuers to repurchase such Holder’s Notes at the Change of Control Purchase Price;

(ii)                                  that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.09 and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment at the Change of Control Purchase Price;

(iii)                               the Change of Control Purchase Date, which shall be fixed by the Issuers on a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, or such later date as is necessary to comply with requirements under the Exchange Act; provided that the Change of Control Purchase Date may not occur prior to the Change of Control;

(iv)                              the Change of Control Purchase Price;

(v)                                 that the Change of Control Purchase Price for any Notes which has been properly tendered and not withdrawn will be paid promptly following the Change of Control Purchase Date;

68

(vi)                              that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Purchase Date;

(vii)                           that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuers to purchase such Notes, provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the 30th day following the date of the Change of Control Purchase Notice, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased;

(viii)                        that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest; and

(ix)                              that, unless the Issuers default in the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price, any Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Purchase Date.

(c)                                  On the Change of Control Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent permitted by law:

(i)                                     accept for payment all Notes issued by it or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(ii)                                  deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered; and

(iii)                               deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuers.

(d)                                 Subject to applicable escheat laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Issuers any cash that remains unclaimed, together with interest or dividends, if any, thereon, held by them for the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price; provided, however, that, (x) to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Issuers pursuant to clause (ii) of clause (c) above exceeds the aggregate Change of Control Purchase Price of the Notes or portions thereof to be purchased, then the Trustee shall hold such excess for the Issuers and (y) unless otherwise directed by the Issuers in writing, promptly after the Business Day following the Change of Control Purchase Date the Trustee shall return any such excess to the Issuers together with interest, if any, thereon.

(e)                                  The Issuers shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws or regulations in connection with a Change of Control Offer.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.09, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this Section 4.09 by virtue of such conflict.

(f)                                   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer, in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.09 applicable

69

to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

(g)                                  The Issuers’ obligation to make a Change of Control Offer to repurchase the Notes may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding pursuant to Section 9.02.

(2)                                 encumbrance or restriction with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Restricted Subsidiary on the Issue Date, in existence at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary and not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary, provided that such encumbrances and restrictions are not applicable to any Restricted Subsidiary or the properties or assets of any Restricted Subsidiary other than such Subsidiary which is becoming a Restricted Subsidiary or such Subsidiary’s Subsidiaries;

(3)                                 encumbrance or restriction pursuant to any agreement governing any Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations or Purchase Money Obligations permitted to be incurred under Section 4.03;

(8)                                 customary restrictions contained in (A) asset sale agreements that limit the transfer of such assets pending the closing of such sale and (B) any other agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition;

Section 4.12                                       Limitation on Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

The Issuers may designate after the Issue Date any Subsidiary as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” under this Indenture only if:

(a)                                 no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such designation;

71

(b)                                 either (i) such Subsidiary has total assets of less than $1,000 or (ii) the Issuers would be permitted to make an Investment at the time of designation (assuming the effectiveness of such designation) pursuant to Section 4.04 in an amount (the “Designation Amount”) equal to the Fair Market Value of the Company’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Investments in such Subsidiary (including any guarantee of the obligations of such Unrestricted Subsidiary that will not be released concurrently with such designation but excluding any amounts attributable to Investments made prior to the Issue Date);

(c)                                  such Unrestricted Subsidiary does not own any Capital Stock in any Restricted Subsidiary which is not simultaneously being designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary;

(d)                                 such Unrestricted Subsidiary is not liable, directly or indirectly, with respect to any Indebtedness other than Non-recourse Indebtedness, provided that an Unrestricted Subsidiary may provide a Guarantee for the Notes; and

(e)                                  such Unrestricted Subsidiary is not a party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding at such time with the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary unless the terms of any such agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that might be obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuers or, in the event such condition is not satisfied, the value of such agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding to such Unrestricted Subsidiary from and after the date of designation shall be deemed a Restricted Payment.

In the event of any such designation, the Issuers shall be deemed to have made an Investment pursuant to Section 4.04 for all purposes of this Indenture in an amount equal to the Designation Amount.  For purposes of the foregoing, the designation of a Subsidiary of an Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be the designation of all of the Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.  Unless so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of an Issuer will be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary.

The Issuers may revoke any designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if:

(a)                                 no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such revocation;

(b)                                 all Liens and Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such revocation would, if incurred at such time, have been permitted to be incurred for all purposes of this Indenture; and

(c)                                  unless such redesignated Subsidiary shall not have any Indebtedness outstanding (other than Indebtedness that would be Permitted Indebtedness), (x) if prior to such revocation the Company could incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a) immediately after giving effect to such proposed revocation, and after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of any such Indebtedness of such redesignated Subsidiary as if such Indebtedness was incurred on the date of the revocation, the Company could incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or (y) if prior to such revocation the Company could not incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a) the Company’s Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio does not decline as a result of such revocation.

All designations and revocations must be evidenced by a resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors delivered to the Trustee certifying compliance with the foregoing provisions.
