(a) has Incurred any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period that remains outstanding on such date of determination or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio includes an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period (except that in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving Credit Facility outstanding on the date of such calculation will be deemed to be (i) the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such four fiscal quarters or such shorter period for which such facility was outstanding or (ii) if such facility was created after the end of such four fiscal quarters, the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of such facility to the date of such calculation) and the discharge of any other Indebtedness repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged with the proceeds of such new Indebtedness as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such period; or

(b) has repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness since the beginning of the period that is no longer outstanding on such date of determination or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio includes a discharge of Indebtedness (in each case, other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving Credit Facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and the related commitment terminated and not replaced), Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such discharge of such Indebtedness, including with the proceeds of such new Indebtedness, as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such period;

(2) if since the beginning of such period, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary will have disposed of any assets or disposed of or discontinued (as defined under GAAP) any company, division, operating unit, segment, business, group of related assets or line of business or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio includes such a transaction:

(a) the Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets that are the subject of such disposition or discontinuation for such period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) directly attributable thereto for such period; and

(b) Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly attributable to any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged (to the extent the related commitment is permanently reduced) with respect to the Issuer and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such transaction for such period (or, if the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary is sold, the Consolidated Interest Expense for such period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Issuer and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale);

-5-

(3) if since the beginning of such period the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) will have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is merged with or into the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets, including any acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes all or substantially all of a company, division, operating unit, segment, business, group of related assets or line of business, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition occurred on the first day of such period; and

(4) if since the beginning of such period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) will have Incurred any Indebtedness or discharged any Indebtedness, made any disposition or any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above if made by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction occurred on the first day of such period.

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any calculation under this definition, the pro forma calculations will be determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer (including pro forma expense and cost reductions calculated on a basis consistent with Regulation S-X under the Securities Act). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such Interest Rate Agreement has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect bears an interest rate at the option of the Issuer, the interest rate shall be calculated by applying such optional rate chosen by the Issuer.

-6-

representing an accrual or reserve relating to any legal, administrative or governmental claim, litigation, investigation or proceedings, even if cash charges may be anticipated in any future period, so long as adding back such non-cash charges is consistent with the Issuer’s past practice in its publicly reported “EBITDA” or “Adjusted EBITDA” included in its annual or quarterly earnings reports) and non-cash compensation expense recorded from grants of stock appreciation or similar rights, stock options, restricted stock or other rights to officers, directors or employees; plus

While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee.

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Where Notes of a series are presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of the same series of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s request.

(b) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer and/or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.10, 2.15, 3.06 or 9.04).

(c) The Issuer need not issue, and the Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of, (i) any Note of a particular series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes of that series for redemption under Section 3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, or (ii) any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note of that series being redeemed in part.

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes.

If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or if a Holder claims that its Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken and the Trustee and the Issuer receive evidence to their satisfaction of the ownership and loss, destruction or theft of such Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are otherwise met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be provided by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and/or the Trustee may charge the Holder for the expenses of the Issuer and the Trustee in replacing a Note. Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07, in case any mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes.

(a) 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 Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.

(b) 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 protected purchaser, as such term is defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York.

(c) 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 from and after the date of such payment.

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

In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes of each series have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer, or by any Affiliate of the Issuer, shall be considered as though not outstanding with respect to such series, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, the Trustee may rely on the list of Holders it is required to maintain in accordance with Section 2.05 in determining what Notes are so owned. 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 Issuer or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor.

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes.

Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer 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 Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 2.02, 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 Issuer 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 destroy cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall, upon the written request of the Issuer, be delivered to the Issuer. The Issuer 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.

(a) If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. The Issuer 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 Issuer 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 Issuer of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to each Holder a notice at its 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.

(b) 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 interest, which were carried by such other Note.

Section 2.13 CUSIP and ISIN Numbers

The Issuer in issuing any series of Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, the Trustee shall have no liability for any defect in the CUSIP number as they appear on any

-33-

Notes, notice or elsewhere, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on such Notes or as contained in any notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on such Notes, and any such action relating to such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers in such notice. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Section 2.14 Special Record Dates.

(a) The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, set a record date for the purpose of determining the identity of Holders of any series of Notes entitled to consent to any supplement, amendment or waiver permitted by this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, the Holders of Notes of that series outstanding on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to consent to such supplement, amendment or waiver or revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date unless consents from Holders of the principal amount of Notes of that series required hereunder for such amendment or waiver to be effective shall have also been given and not revoked within such 90-day period.

(b) The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of any series of Notes entitled to join in the giving or making of any notice of Default, any declaration of acceleration, any request to institute proceedings or any other similar direction. If a record date is fixed, the Holders of Notes of that series outstanding on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, however, that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the date 90 days after such record date. In setting such record date, the provisions of the last sentence of Trust Indenture Act Section 316(c) shall not apply.

Section 2.15 Global Notes.

(a) A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers’ Certificate shall establish whether the Notes of a series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes and the Depositary for such Global Notes or Notes.

(b) Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.06 of this Indenture and in addition thereto, any Global Note shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.06 of this Indenture for securities registered in the names of Holders other than the Depositary for such Note or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Issuer fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days of such event,(ii) the Issuer executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such Global Note shall be so exchangeable, or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes represented by such Global Note has occurred and is continuing. Any Global Note that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Notes with like tenor and terms.

(c) Except as provided in this paragraph (b) of this Section, a Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such Global Note to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary.

-34-

(d) Members of, or participants in, the Depositary shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under the Global Note, and the Depositary may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and participants, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Note.

(e) Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee is responsible or liable for the actions or inactions or the rules and procedures of the Depositary.

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 Notes (including any transfers between or among the Participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation, as is 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.

(g) None of the Trustee or any Agent shall have any responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner in a Global Note, a Participant or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any Participant, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any Participant, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary or its nominee) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes and this Indenture shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of the Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in the Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable procedures of such Depositary. The Trustee and the Agents shall be entitled to rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, Participant and any beneficial owners. The Trustee and the Agents shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary, and any nominee thereof, that is the registered holder of any Global Note for all purposes of this Indenture relating to such Global Note (including the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest and additional amounts, if any, and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the owner or holder of a beneficial ownership interest in such Global Note) as the sole holder of such Global Note and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof. None of the Trustee or any Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of the Depositary with respect to such Global Note for the records of any such Depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of any such Global Note, for any transactions between the Depositary and any Participant or between or among the Depositary, any such Participant and/or any holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Note.

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased.

(a) If less than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed at any time, the Notes of such series to be redeemed or purchased will be selected (1) if the Notes of such series are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which such Notes of such series are listed, (2) if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable, or (3) by lot or by such other similar method in accordance with the procedures of DTC, subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days (subject to Section 3.03(a)) prior to the redemption date from the then outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase.

(b) Notes of a series and portions of Notes of a series selected for redemption or purchase shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a series of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes of such series held by such Holder shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

(c) After the redemption date, upon surrender of a Note of a series to be redeemed in part only, a new Note or Notes of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note of such series representing the same Indebtedness 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).

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption.

(a) The Issuer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered (or, in the case of Notes held in book-entry form, by electronic transmission) notices of redemption of Notes at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Article at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, except that redemption notices may be delivered more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 12.

(4) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

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

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is delivered 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 delivered 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 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 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 of Notes called for redemption.

-38-

(b) If the Issuer complies with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), 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 on the relevant interest payment date 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 Issuer to comply with Section 3.05(a), 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 and in Section 4.01.

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver to the Holder (or cause to be transferred by book entry) at the expense of the Issuer 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 shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of any failure to make required filings of reports via the EDGAR filing system within the deadlines set forth in this Section 4.03.

This Section 4.08 shall apply to any series of Notes only if Guarantees of such series have been established pursuant to Article 10.

At any time prior to the Collateral Release Date, if any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer other than a Guarantor (i) guarantees any Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facility, any other First Lien Obligations or any Junior Lien Obligations or (ii) if the Issuer or the Guarantors have no Indebtedness outstanding, and all commitments thereunder have been terminated under the Senior Credit Facility, any other First Lien Obligations or any Junior Lien Obligations, guarantees any Additional Indebtedness, then within 30 days thereof, the Issuer shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit C hereto, pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will unconditionally guarantee, on a joint and several basis, payment of the Notes of such series on the same terms and conditions as those applicable to the Guarantors under this Indenture and will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel that such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, and an Opinion of Counsel that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and constitutes a legally valid and enforceable obligation (subject to customary qualifications and exceptions). Any such Guarantor shall be an Unsecured Guarantor unless such Restricted Subsidiary grants any Lien to secure any Indebtedness described in clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence, in which case, and only such case, such Restricted Subsidiary shall grant a first-priority perfected security interest in the Collateral as security for the Notes of such series, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee joinders to any applicable Security Document for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes of such series and shall be a “Secured Guarantor” for all purposes under this Indenture.

In addition, the Issuer may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Restricted Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor by complying with the applicable provisions of the preceding paragraph until such Restricted Subsidiary’s Guarantee with respect to the Notes of such series is released in accordance with the Indenture.

Each Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Secured Guarantor on or after the issue date of the Notes of the particular series shall also, as promptly as practicable, execute and deliver such other security instruments, financing statements and certificates and opinions of counsel (to the extent, and substantially in the form, delivered on the issue date of the Notes of the particular series as may be necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a security interest that is pari passu in priority to the Senior Credit Facility and the other First Lien Obligations (subject to Permitted Liens)) in the manner and to the extent set forth in the Security Documents and this Indenture in properties and assets of the type constituting Collateral as security for the Notes or the Guarantees of such series, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such properties and assets to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

-42-

The obligations of each Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor (including, without limitation, any Guarantees under the Senior Credit Facility) and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law.

Each Guarantee shall be released in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06. Upon the release of any Secured Guarantor from its Guarantee, the Liens granted by such Secured Guarantor under the Security Documents will also be automatically released, and the Trustee, subject to Section 11.05(f), and the Collateral Agent will execute such documents confirming such release as the Issuer or such Secured Guarantor may request (such documents to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Person being requested to execute the same).

Section 4.09 Limitation on Mortgages.

(a) Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes of any particular series shall in any way restrict or prevent the Issuer or any Subsidiary from incurring any Indebtedness; provided, however, that subject to Section 4.11, neither the Issuer nor any of its Subsidiaries will issue, assume or guarantee any indebtedness or obligation secured by Mortgages (other than Permitted Liens) upon any Principal Property, unless the Notes of such series shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Indebtedness. This restriction will not apply to:

(1) Mortgages securing all or any part of the purchase price of property acquired or cost of construction of property or cost of additions, substantial repairs, alterations or improvements or property, if the Indebtedness and the related Mortgages are incurred within 12 months of the later of the acquisition or completion of construction and full operation or additions, repairs, alterations or improvements;

(2) Mortgages existing on property at the time of its acquisition by the Issuer or a Subsidiary or on the property of a Person at the time of the acquisition of such Person by the Issuer or a Subsidiary (including acquisitions through merger or consolidation);

(3) Mortgages to secure Indebtedness on which the interest payments to holders of the related indebtedness are excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Code;

(4) Mortgages in favor of the Issuer or any Subsidiary;

(5) Mortgages existing on the date of this Indenture;

(6) Mortgages in favor of a government or governmental entity that (i) secure Indebtedness which is guaranteed by the government or governmental entity, (ii) secure Indebtedness incurred to finance all or some of the purchase price or cost of construction of goods, products or facilities produced under contract or subcontract for the government or governmental entity, or (iii) secure Indebtedness incurred to finance all or some of the purchase price or cost of construction of the property subject to the Mortgage;

(7) Mortgages incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds where such funds are used to repay, within 120 days after entering into such Mortgage, Indebtedness in the same principal amount secured by other Mortgages on Principal Property with at least the same appraised fair market value; and

-43-

(8) any extension, renewal or replacement of any Mortgage referred to in clauses (1) through (7) above; provided the amount secured is not increased and such extension, renewal or replacement Mortgage relates to the same property.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 4.09(a), the Issuer and its Subsidiaries may issue, assume or guarantee Indebtedness secured by Mortgages pursuant to Section 4.11.

Section 4.10 Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions.

(a) Subject to Section 4.11, neither the Issuer nor any Subsidiary will, after the issue date of the Notes of the particular series, enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction with respect to any Principal Property with another person (other than with the Issuer or a Subsidiary) unless either:

(1) the Issuer or such Subsidiary could incur indebtedness secured by a mortgage on the property to be leased without equally and ratably securing the Notes of such series; or

(2) within 150 days, the Issuer applies the greater of the net proceeds of the sale of the leased property or the fair value of the leased property, net of all Notes of such series delivered under this Indenture, to the voluntary retirement of the Funded Debt of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries and/or the acquisition or construction of a Principal Property.

(b) Section 4.10(a) shall not apply to any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction that is in effect on the issue date of the Notes of the particular series and any renewals or extensions thereof; provided that if any Principal Property is substituted for a Principal Property that is a subject of a Sale and Lease-Back Transaction that is in effect on the issue date of the Notes of the particular series, for purposes of Section 4.11, any increase in Attributable Indebtedness shall be counted as Indebtedness for purposes of the calculation set forth thereunder.

Section 4.11 Exempted Transactions.

Notwithstanding Sections 4.09 and 4.10, if the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries that is subject to and not otherwise permitted under Sections 4.09 and 4.10 does not exceed 15.0% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, then:

(1) the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may issue, assume or guarantee Indebtedness secured by Mortgages without any requirement to equally and ratably secure the Notes of a particular series; and

(2) the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction.

Section 4.12 Release of Collateral and Guarantees Upon Investment Grade Rating Event.

This Section 4.12 shall apply to any series of Notes only if Guarantees of such series have been established pursuant to Article 10 and Collateral securing such series has been established pursuant to Article 11, as applicable.

-44-

If on any date following the issue date of the Notes of the particular series, (i)(1) the Notes of such series have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies; and (2) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (1) and (2) being collectively referred to as an “Investment Grade Rating Event”) and (ii) the terms of all other First Lien Obligations and Junior Lien Obligations provide that the Liens on the Collateral securing such First Lien Obligations and Junior Lien Obligations shall be, and substantially concurrently are, released, then, beginning on that day (such date, the “Collateral Release Date”), the Guarantees of such series shall be released (to the extent the guarantees by the Guarantors of all other First Lien Obligations and Junior Lien Obligations are also released, whether or not such other guarantees can be reinstated), the Liens on the Collateral securing the Notes, the Notes Obligations and the Guarantees of the Secured Guarantors, in each case with respect to such series, shall be released, and the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to Section 4.08 or Section 11.04. In the event the Liens on the Collateral securing the Notes and the Notes Obligations and the Guarantees of such series are released and Section 4.08 is no longer in effect upon an Investment Grade Rating Event, the Collateral securing the Notes, the Notes Obligations and the Guarantees of the Secured Guarantors, and the Guarantees of the Guarantors, in each case with respect to such series, shall not be reinstated upon any subsequent downgrade or withdrawal of the Investment Grade Ratings, even if the collateral and the guarantees are reinstated with respect to other First Lien Obligations and Junior Lien Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, an Investment Grade Rating Event has occurred as of the date hereof.

Section 5.02 Successor Entity Substituted.

(a) Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer in accordance with Section 5.01, the Issuer will be released from its obligations under this Indenture, and the Successor Person formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Issuer is merged or wound up or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, winding up, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the Issuer shall refer instead to the Successor Person and not to the Issuer applicable), and may exercise every right and power of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes with the same effect as if such Successor Person had been named as the Issuer herein or therein; provided that (1) subject to clause (2) below, the predecessor Issuer shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes except in the case of a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all of the Issuer’s assets that meets the requirements of Section 5.01 and (2) in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the Issuer will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes.

(C) orders the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Issuer and any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days;

(9) to the extent applicable, with respect to any Collateral having a Fair Market Value in excess of $100.0 million, individually or in the aggregate, (a) the security interest under the Security Documents, at any time, ceases to be in full force and effect for any reason other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Security Documents, (b) any security interest created thereunder or under this Indenture is declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or (c) the Issuer or any Secured Guarantor asserts, in any pleading in any court of competent jurisdiction, that any such security interest is invalid or unenforceable.

Section 6.02 Acceleration.

(a) If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (6) or (7) of Section 6.01(a)) with respect to the Notes of a series occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series may declare the principal amount of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes of such series to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default constituting an event under clause (6) or (7) of Section 6.01(a) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes of such series will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.

(b) In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes of a series because an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a)(4) has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes of such series shall be automatically annulled if the default triggering such Event of Default shall be remedied or cured by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if (1) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes of such series would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes of such series that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes of such series, have been cured or waived.

Section 6.03 Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes of a series, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of such series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes of such series, this Indenture or the Security Documents with respect to the Notes of such series.

-49-

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes of such series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note of such series 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. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all Holders of such series waive any existing Default and its consequences hereunder, except:

(1) a continuing Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note of such series held by a non-consenting Holder; and

(2) a Default with respect to a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder of Notes of such series affected,

and the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of such series that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived, and (3) all amounts due to the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder have been paid in full. Upon any such waiver, 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 right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05 Control by Majority.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee or the Collateral Agent. However, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, the Security Documents, the Notes of such series or the Guarantees, or that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of such series (it being understood that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee or Collateral Agent in personal liability or expense for which the Trustee or the Collateral Agent has not received an indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it.

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

Subject to Section 6.07, no Holder of a Note of a series may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture with respect to such series or the Notes of such series unless:

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

(2) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

-50-

(3) such Holders have offered the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

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

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

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

Section 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on its Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note, 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.

Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes of a series, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer and any other obligor on the Notes of such series for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes of such series, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09 Restoration 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 Issuer, the Guarantors, 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.

Section 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, 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 are, 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.

-51-

Section 6.11 Delay 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.

Section 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee may file 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 the compensation and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and is entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims. Any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such 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 or the Collateral Agent any amount due to it for the compensation and the reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained 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, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.13 Priorities.

For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes of such series, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture, including that of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

-59-

(1) the rights of Holders to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes of such series when such payments are due, solely out of the trust referred to in Section 8.04;

(c) Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03.

In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, Sections 6.01(a)(3) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance), 6.01(a)(4), 6.01(a)(5), 6.01(a)(6) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries or a group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), 6.01(a)(7) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries or a group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), 6.01(a)(8) and 6.01(a)(9), in each case shall not constitute Events of Default as to the Notes of such series.

ARTICLE 10

GUARANTEES

Any series of Notes may be guaranteed by one or more of the Guarantors. The terms and the form of any such Guarantee will be as set forth in this Article 10 unless otherwise established in the manner contemplated by Section 2.01 for that particular series of Notes.

Section 10.01 Guarantee.

(a) Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably 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 of such series or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: (1) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of such series shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes of such series, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes of such series 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 of such series 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. Failing payment by the Issuer 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 of such series 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 Issuer, 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 diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes of such series and this Indenture, or pursuant to Section 10.06.

(c) Each of the Guarantors also agrees, jointly and severally, to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.

(d) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this 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 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 Guarantee, notwithstanding

-68-

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 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 Guarantees.

(f) Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation or reorganization, should the Issuer 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 Issuer’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 of such series 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 Guarantees of such series, 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 of such series 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 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 Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

(i) As used in this Section 10.01, the term “Trustee” shall also include each Agent, as applicable.

Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes of such series, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the 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 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 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall 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.

For the avoidance of doubt, upon the issuance of the Notes of such series, the Guarantee of each such Guarantor shall be deemed delivered without the execution and delivery by such Guarantor of any supplemental indenture or other instrument with respect to such series of Notes.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes of such series.

(d) Following the issue date of the Notes of a particular series, the delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

(e) If required by Section 4.11, the Issuer shall cause any newly created or acquired Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.11 and this Article 10, to the extent applicable.

Section 10.04 Subrogation.

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01; 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 Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes of such series shall have been paid in full.

Section 10.05 Benefits 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 Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Section 10.06 Release of Guarantees.

(1) (a) any sale, exchange or transfer (by merger or otherwise) of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (including any sale, exchange or transfer), after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or all or substantially all the assets of such Guarantor, which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with any applicable provisions of this Indenture;

(b) The Liens on the Collateral securing the Notes of such series and the applicable Guarantees also will be released upon (i) payment in full of the principal of, together with accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes of such series and all other Obligations under this Indenture, the Guarantees and the Security Documents that are due and payable at or prior to the time such principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, are paid or (ii) a defeasance under this Indenture pursuant to Article 8 or discharge of the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ Obligations under this Indenture with respect to the Notes of such series in accordance with this Indenture.

(c) The Issuer and each applicable Secured Guarantor will furnish to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to the Trustee), prior to each proposed release of Collateral pursuant to Section 11.05(a)(1) through (7), Section 11.05(b) or pursuant to the Security Documents:

-73-

(d) Upon compliance by the Issuer or applicable Secured Guarantor, as the case may be, with Section 11.05(c), the Collateral Agent shall promptly cause to be released and reconveyed to the Issuer or the Secured Guarantor, as the case may be, the released Collateral, and take all other actions reasonably requested by the Issuer in connection therewith.

(e) If the Liens securing the Senior Credit Facility Obligations are released in connection with the repayment (including cash collateralization of letters of credit) of the Senior Credit Facility Obligations in full and termination of the commitments thereunder, the Liens on the Collateral securing the Notes, the Notes Obligations and the Guarantees of the Secured Guarantors, in each case with respect to such series, will not be released, except to the extent the Collateral or any portion thereof was disposed of in order to repay the Senior Credit Facility Obligations secured by the Collateral. From and after any such time when all the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations other than the Notes and the Notes Obligations of such series are released and the Liens on the Collateral securing the Notes of such series remain in existence, if the Issuer or any Secured Guarantor acquires any property or asset constituting Collateral, it shall grant a first-priority perfected security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) upon such property as security for the Notes of such series to the extent then required under Section 11.04.

(f) To the extent the Trustee is required to execute or direct the Collateral Agent to execute any release, discharge or termination under this Indenture, including without limitation under this Section 11.05 or under Section 10.06, prior thereto the Trustee shall have received an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that all conditions precedent to such a release in this Indenture and the Security Documents have been complied with.

(g) Any certificate or opinion required by Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act in connection with obtaining the release of Collateral may be made by an Officer of the Issuer, except in cases where Section 314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, after such time as this Indenture is qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, the Issuer and the Secured Guarantors will not be required to comply with all or any portion of Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act if they determine, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms of that section and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act is inapplicable to the released Collateral.

Section 11.06 Authorization of Actions to be Taken by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent Under the Security Documents.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Article 7 of this Indenture and the provisions of the Security Documents, each of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may (but shall in no event be required to), at its sole determination and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to (i) enforce any of its rights or any of the rights of the Holders under the Security Documents and (ii) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral in respect of the obligations of the Issuer and the Secured Guarantors hereunder and thereunder. Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have the power, but not the obligation, to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of the Security Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee or

-74-

the Collateral Agent may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interest and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral (including the power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest hereunder or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders or the Trustee).

(b) The Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value (or diminution of value) of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Issuer to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for recording, filing, re-recording or refiling any financing statement, continuation statement, document, instrument or other notice in any public office at any time or times or to otherwise take any action to perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest granted to it under the Security Documents or otherwise. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in their possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in their possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which they accord their own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in good faith. The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents or any other First Lien Documents by the Issuer, the Secured Guarantors, the Holders or the Collateral Agent.

(c) Where any provision of this Indenture requires that additional property or assets be added to the Collateral, the Issuer and each Secured Guarantor, as applicable, shall deliver to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to the Trustee) the following:

-75-

(d) The Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to comply with any provision of, nor shall be charged with knowledge of, any document governing Additional First Lien Obligations to which it is not a party.

Section 11.07 Security Documents.

The provisions in this Indenture relating to Collateral in respect of any applicable series of Notes and any applicable related Guarantees are subject to the provisions of the Security Documents. The Issuer, the Secured Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent acknowledge and agree to be bound by the provisions of the Security Documents.

ARTICLE 12

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 12.01 Satisfaction and Discharge.

(a) This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes of a series issued thereunder, when either:

(1) all Notes of such series that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes of such series that have been replaced or paid and Notes of such series for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuer, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(2) (A) all Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the giving of a notice of redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable within one year or will be called for redemption within one year under irrevocable arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes of such series, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;

(B) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit or will occur as a result of the deposit (other than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowing) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Senior Credit Facility or any other material agreement or material instrument to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;

(C) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture with respect to the Notes of such series; and

-76-

(D) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes of such series at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

(b) In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (A) of clause (2) of Section 12.01(a), the provisions of Section 12.02 and Section 8.06 shall survive.

Section 12.02 Application of Trust Money.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 12.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes of the applicable series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(b) If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 12.01 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 Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, the Notes of such series and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.01; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes of such series because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes of such series to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent, as the case may be.

(b) All notices and communications (other than those delivered to Holders) shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; on the first date of which publication is made, if by publication; five calendar days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed by first-class mail; the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if mailed by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery; when receipt acknowledged, if delivered by facsimile or electronic transmission; provided that any notice or communication delivered to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent or shall be deemed effective upon actual receipt thereof.

Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders.

(d) Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

-78-

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Note, where this Indenture provides for notice of any event (including any notice of redemption) to a Holder of a Global Note (whether by mail or otherwise) such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Note (or its designee), pursuant to the applicable rules and procedures of such Depositary, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice.
