(1) if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary 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 is an Incurrence of Indebtedness, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall 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 and the discharge of any other Indebtedness repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged 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 Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have made any Asset Disposition, the EBITDA for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets that are the subject of such Asset Disposition for such period or increased by an amount equal to the EBITDA (if negative) directly attributable thereto for such period and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly attributable to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged (to the extent the related commitment is permanently reduced) with respect to the Company and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such Asset Disposition 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 Company and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale),

(3) if since the beginning of such period the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an Investment in any Restricted

6

Subsidiary (or any Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets, including any Investment in a Restricted Subsidiary or any acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes all or substantially all of an operating unit of a business, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness and including the pro forma expenses and cost reductions calculated on a basis consistent with Regulation S-X of the Securities Act) as if such Investment or acquisition occurred on the first day of such period and without regard to clause (ii) of the definition of Consolidated Net Income, and

(4) if since the beginning of such period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) shall have made any Asset Disposition or any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (2) or (3) above if made by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Asset Disposition, Investment or acquisition of assets occurred on the first day of such period. For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting Officer of the Company. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall 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 as at the date of determination in excess of 12 months).

“Consolidated Interest Expense” means, for any period, the total consolidated cash and non-cash interest expense (excluding capitalized interest and any non-cash interest expense arising from the adoption of FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1) of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, determined in accordance with GAAP, plus, to the extent incurred by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in such period but not included in such interest expense, (i) interest expense attributable to Capitalized Lease Obligations and imputed interest with respect to Attributable Debt, (ii) amortization of debt discount and debt issuance cost (other than those debt discounts and debt issuance costs incurred with respect to the Convertible Notes, the Senior Notes due 2009, the Senior Notes due 2011, the Senior Notes due 2013 and the Senior Notes due 2017 and on the Issue Date), (iii) capitalized interest, (iv) non-cash interest expense (other than any non-cash interest expense arising from the adoption of FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1), (v) commissions, discounts and other fees and charges attributable to letters of credit and bankers’ acceptance financing, (vi) interest actually paid by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary under any Guarantee of Indebtedness or other obligation of any other Person, (vii) net gains associated with Hedging Obligations (or minus net losses associated with Hedging Obligations), (viii) the product of (A) Preferred Stock dividends in respect of all Preferred Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries and Disqualified Stock of the Company held by

7

Persons other than the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is one minus the then current combined federal, state and local statutory tax rate of the Company, expressed as a decimal, in each case, determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP; and (ix) the cash contributions to any employee stock ownership plan or similar trust to the extent such contributions are used by such plan or trust to pay interest or fees to any Person (other than the Company) in connection with Indebtedness Incurred by such plan or trust and (x) Receivables Fees. For purposes of the foregoing, gross interest expense shall be determined after giving effect to any net payments made or received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to Interest Rate Agreements.

“Consolidated Net Income” means, for any period, without duplication, the consolidated net income (loss) of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that there shall not be included in such Consolidated Net Income:

(i) any net income (loss) of any Person if such Person is not a Restricted Subsidiary, except that (A) subject to the limitations contained in clauses (iii) through (v) below, the Company’s equity in the net income of any such Person for such period shall be included in such Consolidated Net Income up to the aggregate amount of cash actually distributed by such Person during such period to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary as a dividend or other distribution (subject, in the case of a dividend or other distribution to a Restricted Subsidiary, to the limitations contained in clause (ii) below) and (B) the Company’s equity in a net loss of any such Person for such period shall be included in determining such Consolidated Net Income,

(ii) any net income (loss) of any Restricted Subsidiary if such Restricted Subsidiary is subject to restrictions, directly or indirectly, on the payment of dividends or the making of distributions by such Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to the Company, except that (A) subject to the limitations contained in clauses (iii) through (v) below, the Company’s equity in the net income of any such Restricted Subsidiary for such period shall be included in such Consolidated Net Income up to the aggregate amount of cash distributed by such Restricted Subsidiary during such period to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary as a dividend (subject, in the case of a dividend that could have been made to another Restricted Subsidiary, to the limitation contained in this clause) and (B) the Company’s equity in a net loss of any such Person for such period shall be included in determining such Consolidated Net Income,

(iii) any gain or loss realized upon the sale or other disposition of any asset of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries (including pursuant to any Sale/Leaseback Transaction) that is not sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business and any gain or loss realized upon the sale or other disposition of any Capital Stock of any Person, provided that this clause (iii) shall not be applicable with respect to calculating the amount of Consolidated Net Income in clause (3)(B) of Section 3.4(a).

(iv) any extraordinary gain or loss, and

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

If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

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

(h) No Obligation of the Trustee. 8.1.1.1.1.2.The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in, the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice or the payment of any amount or delivery of any Securities (or other security or property) under or with respect to such Securities.

The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

44

as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Notes to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Notes prior to the date that is one year after the later of the date of original issue and the last date on which the Company or any affiliate of the Company was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) only (a) to the Company, (b) pursuant to a registration statement which has been declared effective under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”), (c) in a transaction complying with the requirements of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, to a person we reasonably believe is a qualified institutional buyer under Rule 144A (a “QIB”) that purchases for its own account or for the account of a QIB and to whom notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (d) pursuant to offers and sales that occur outside the United States within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (e) to an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act that is purchasing for its own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor,” in each case in a minimum principal amount of Notes of $250,000 or (f) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject in each of the foregoing cases to any requirement of law that the disposition of our property or the property of such investor account or accounts be at all times within our or their control and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws. The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction Termination Date. If any resale or other transfer of the Notes is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (e) above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Company and the Trustee, which shall provide, among other things, that the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act) and that it is acquiring such Notes for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act. Each purchaser acknowledges that the Company and the Trustee reserve the right prior to any offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Termination Date of the Notes pursuant to clauses (d), (e) or (f) above to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications and/or other information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee.

SECTION 2.9. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities. If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon Company Order, shall authenticate a replacement Security if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met such that the Holder (a) notifies the Company and the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar has not registered a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company prior to the Company having notice that the Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Company and the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced, then, in the absence of notice to the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require that such Holder pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) in connection therewith.

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor and any other obligor upon the Securities, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

48

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

SECTION 2.10. Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding in the event the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security except that the Company or an Affiliate of the Company shall not obtain voting rights with respect to such Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.9, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser.

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

SECTION 2.11. Temporary Securities. In the event that Definitive Securities are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities. After the preparation of Definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for Definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose and such exchange shall be without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Securities representing an equal principal amount of Securities. Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of Definitive Securities.

SECTION 2.12. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel and return to the Company all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and deliver a certificate of such cancellation to the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

49

At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for Definitive Securities, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for Definitive Securities, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Security, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the Global Security and on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Securities Custodian for such Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

SECTION 2.13. Payment of Interest; Defaulted Interest. Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any interest payment date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or one or more predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3.

Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not paid when the same becomes due and payable and such nonpayment continues for a period of 30 days shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the regular record date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such defaulted interest and (to the extent lawful) interest on such defaulted interest at the rate borne by the Securities (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below:

(a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date (as defined below) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date (not less than 30 days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the “Special Interest Payment Date”), and at the same time the Company 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 in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the Special Interest Payment Date and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date and Special Interest Payment Date therefor to be given in the manner provided for in Section 12.1, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the

50

proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date and Special Interest Payment Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid on the Special Interest Payment Date to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b).

(b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

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

SECTION 2.14. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

SECTION 2.15. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use). The Trustee shall not be responsible for the use of CUSIP numbers, and the Trustee makes no representation as to their correctness as printed on any Security or notice to Holders. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

ARTICLE III

Covenants

SECTION 3.1. Payment of Securities. The Company shall promptly pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities and in this Indenture. Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Securities, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful.

51

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Company may, to the extent it is required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States of America from principal or interest payments hereunder.

SECTION 3.2. SEC Reports. Notwithstanding that the Company may not remain subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will file (if then permitted to do so) with the SEC and provide (whether or not so filed with the SEC) the Trustee and Holders and prospective Holders (upon request) within 15 days of the date of filing with the SEC or, if not filed, on the date that such reports would be required to be filed with the SEC if the Company were a reporting company, with the annual reports and the information, documents and other reports, which are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act (which requirement may be satisfied by posting such reports, documents and information on its website within the time periods specified by this Section 3.2); provided, however, that the Company shall (upon request) provide one copy of the exhibits of the foregoing to the Trustee and shall (upon request) provide additional copies of such exhibits to any Holder or prospective Holder.

SECTION 3.3. Limitation on Indebtedness. 8.1.2.The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness); provided, however, that the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors may Incur Indebtedness if on the date of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness the Consolidated Coverage Ratio for the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be equal to or greater than 2.00:1.00.

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph (a), the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries, as set forth below, may Incur the following Indebtedness:

(i) (A) Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to the Debt Facilities and (B) the Incurrence by a Receivables Entity of Indebtedness in a Qualified Receivables Transaction that is nonrecourse to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (except for Standard Securitization Undertakings) in an aggregate principal amount for Indebtedness Incurred under clauses (A) and (B) not to exceed the greater of (x) $2,375.0 million, less the aggregate amount of all repayments of principal actually made under the ABL Credit Facility since the Issue Date with Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions pursuant to clause (b)(iii)(A) of Section 3.7 and all repayments of principal under Indebtedness actually made since the Issue Date with Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions of Collateral pursuant to Collateral Disposition Offers and (y) the Borrowing Base;

(ii) Indebtedness of the Company owing to and held by any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by the Company or any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary; provided, however,

| (A) | if the Company is the obligor on such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness and a Subsidiary Guarantor is not the obligee, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Securities;

52

| (B) | if a Subsidiary Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor is not the obligee, such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Subsidiary Guarantees of such Subsidiary Guarantor; and

| (C) | (x) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such Indebtedness ceasing to be held by the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Company and (y) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Company,

shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be.

(iii) any Indebtedness (other than the Indebtedness described in clauses (i), (ii) (iv), (v), (vi) or (viii)) outstanding on the Issue Date, including the Convertible Notes, the Senior Notes due 2009, the Senior Notes due 2011, the Senior Notes due 2013 and the Senior Notes due 2017 then in existence, and any Guarantees related thereto, and any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred in respect of any Indebtedness described in this clause (iii) or paragraph (a) of this Section 3.3;

(iv) Guarantees by (x) the Company or Subsidiary Guarantors of Indebtedness Incurred by the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, provided that in the event such Indebtedness that is being Guaranteed is a Subordinated Indebtedness or a Guarantor Subordinated Indebtedness, then the related Guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantee, as the case may be, and (y) the Company (solely with respect to Indebtedness of Foreign Subsidiaries) and Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness Incurred by Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture;

(v) Indebtedness in respect of performance, surety or appeal bonds provided in the ordinary course of business;

(vi) Indebtedness under Hedging Obligations; provided, however, that such Hedging Obligations are entered into for bona fide hedging purposes of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;

(vii) Indebtedness (in addition to Indebtedness described in clauses (i) and (iii)) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary attributable to Capitalized Lease Obligations, or Incurred to finance the acquisition, construction or improvement of fixed or capital assets, or constituting Attributable Debt in respect of Sale/Leaseback

53

Transactions, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding, since the Issue Date, together with any Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to any such Indebtedness Incurred under this clause (vii), not in excess of $75.0 million;

(viii) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary issued and outstanding on or prior to the date on which such Restricted Subsidiary was acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness Incurred (A) as consideration in, or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or (B) otherwise in connection with, or in contemplation of, such acquisition) and any Refinancing Indebtedness with respect thereto; provided, however, that on the date of any such acquisition of a Restricted Subsidiary, the Company shall have been able to Incur at least an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness under paragraph (a) above after giving effect to such acquisition and the Incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (viii);

(ix) Indebtedness of Foreign Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (ix) since the Issue Date and then outstanding, together with any Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to any such Indebtedness Incurred under this clause (ix), will not in the aggregate exceed $200.0 million; and

(x) Indebtedness (in addition to Indebtedness described in clauses (i)-(ix)) in an aggregate principal amount which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (x) since the Issue Date and then outstanding, together with any Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to any such Indebtedness Incurred under this clause (x), will not in the aggregate exceed $75.0 million.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not Incur any Indebtedness pursuant to the foregoing paragraph (b) if the proceeds thereof are used, directly or indirectly, to refinance any Subordinated Indebtedness unless such Indebtedness (i) will be subordinated to the Securities to at least the same extent as such Subordinated Indebtedness and (ii) will not mature prior to the Stated Maturity of the Indebtedness to be refinanced or refunded, and the Average Life of such new Indebtedness is at least equal to the remaining Average Life of the Indebtedness to be refinanced or refunded.

(c) No Subsidiary Guarantor will Incur any Indebtedness if the proceeds thereof are used, directly or indirectly, to refinance any Guarantor Subordinated Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor unless such Indebtedness will be subordinated to the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee to at least the same extent as such Guarantor Subordinated Indebtedness. No Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary Guarantor) may Incur any Indebtedness if the proceeds are used to refinance Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor, except to the extent that the Indebtedness of the Company so refinanced consists of the Guarantee of Indebtedness of a Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary.

54

(d) The Company will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to Incur any Indebtedness other than Non-Recourse Indebtedness; provided, however, if any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Indebtedness, such event shall be deemed to constitute an Incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary.

(e) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 3.3, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in the above clauses, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall classify such item of Indebtedness on the Issue Date or on the date of Incurrence and may later reclassify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this covenant and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of such clauses. The incurrence of Indebtedness represented by the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees issued on the Issue Date and all Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the ABL Credit Facility, the European Credit Facility and the Rabobank Term Loan shall be deemed initially Incurred on the Issue Date under clause (b)(i) of this Section 3.3.

(f) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar- denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.3, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company may Incur pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

SECTION 3.4. Limitation on Restricted Payments. 8.1.3. The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on or in respect of its Capital Stock, as applicable, (including any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries) except: (x) dividends or distributions payable solely in Capital Stock of the Company, as applicable, (other than Disqualified Stock) or in options, warrants or other rights to purchase such Capital Stock of the Company and (y) dividends or distributions payable

SECTION 3.6. Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries.

SECTION 3.7. Limitation on Sales of Assets. 8.1.4. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Disposition of Collateral unless: (i) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the fair market value (such fair market value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition), as determined in good faith by the Company’s management, or if such Asset Disposition involves consideration in excess of $20.0 million, by a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, (including as to the value of all non-cash consideration), of the Collateral subject to such Asset

60

Disposition; (ii) at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset Disposition received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents and 100% of the Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions relating to Non-ABL Collateral is deposited directly into the Collateral Accounts; and (iii) the remaining consideration from such Asset Disposition that is not in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents is thereupon with its acquisition pledged as Non-ABL Collateral to secure the Securities, in the case of an Asset Disposition of Non-ABL Collateral, or as ABL Collateral, in the case of an Asset Disposition of ABL Collateral.

Any Net Available Cash deposited into the Collateral Accounts from any Asset Dispositions of Non-ABL Collateral or Recovery Events (as described below) may be withdrawn by the Company to be invested by the Company in Additional Assets within 360 days of the date of such Asset Disposition or Recovery Event, which Additional Assets are thereupon with their acquisition added to the Collateral securing the Securities.

All of the Net Available Cash received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from any Recovery Event shall be deposited directly into the Collateral Accounts and may be withdrawn by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to be invested in Additional Assets (which may include performance of a restoration of the affected Collateral) in accordance with the preceding paragraph within 360 days of the date of such Recovery Event.

Any Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions of Collateral or Recovery Events that are not applied or invested as provided in this subsection (a) or in accordance with the Collateral Documents will be deemed to constitute “Excess Collateral Proceeds.” On or before the 361st day after an Asset Disposition or Recovery Event pursuant to this subsection (a), if the aggregate amount of Excess Collateral Proceeds exceeds $5.0 million, the Company will be required to make an offer (“Collateral Disposition Offer”) to all Holders and to the lenders under the Rabobank Term Loan to purchase the maximum principal amount of the Securities and Rabobank Term Loan (on a pro rata basis) to which the Collateral Disposition Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Collateral Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities and Rabobank Term Loan, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture in integral multiples of $1,000; provided, however, that to the extent the Excess Collateral Proceeds relate to Asset Dispositions of ABL Collateral, the Company may, prior to making a Collateral Disposition Offer, make a prepayment with respect to the maximum principal amount of Indebtedness that is secured by such Collateral on a first-priority basis that may be prepaid out of such Excess Collateral Proceeds, at a price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Indebtedness, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of prepayment, with any Excess Collateral Proceeds not used to prepay such Indebtedness offered to Holders and to the lenders under the Rabobank Term Loan in accordance with this Section. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Securities and Rabobank Term Loan so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to a Collateral Disposition Offer is less than the Excess Collateral Proceeds (after giving effect to the prepayment of Indebtedness secured on a first-priority basis in the case of an Asset Disposition of ABL Collateral), the

61

Company may use any remaining Excess Collateral Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Securities surrendered by Holders and Rabobank Term Loans surrendered by lenders under the Rabobank Term Loan requesting prepayment exceeds the amount of Excess Collateral Proceeds, the Securities and Rabobank Term Loan to be purchased shall be selected on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of tendered Securities and Rabobank Term Loan. Upon completion of such Collateral Disposition Offer, the amount of Excess Collateral Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Asset Disposition (other than Asset Dispositions of Collateral which shall be treated in the manner set forth in paragraph (a)) unless: (i) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration (including by way of relief from, or by way of any other Person assuming sole responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise) at least equal to the fair market value (such fair market value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition) (as determined in good faith by the Company’s management, or if such Asset Disposition involves consideration in excess of $20.0 million, by a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of the assets subject to such Asset Disposition; (ii) at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset Disposition received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents (except such requirement of cash or Cash Equivalents shall not apply to any property, plant, equipment or other facility closed and designated as unused, idle or obsolete by either Senior Management or by resolution of the Board of Directors, and in either case set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee); and (iii) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) as follows (it being understood that actions under clause (B) may occur prior to actions under clause (A)): (A) to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects (or is required by the terms of any Indebtedness), to prepay, repay or purchase Indebtedness (other than Disqualified Stock, Subordinated Indebtedness and Guarantor Subordinated Indebtedness) (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto) within 365 days after the date of such Asset Disposition; (B) to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, to reinvest in Additional Assets (including by means of an Investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with Net Available Cash received by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) within 365 days from the date of such Asset Disposition; provided, that, at the option of the Company, to the extent that the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary has (x) at or before the consummation of an acquisition of Additional Assets, announced its intention to make an Asset Disposition in connection with such acquisition (an “Announced Asset Disposition”) and (y) consummated such acquisition of Additional Assets during the period six months prior to the consummation of the Announced Asset Disposition, then the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may deem the Net Available Cash from such Announced Asset Disposition to be reinvested for purposes of determining compliance with this clause (B) to the extent of the investment in such Additional Assets; (C) to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after

62

application in accordance with clauses (A) and (B), to make an offer to purchase Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the Senior Notes due 2009, the Senior Notes due 2011, the Senior Notes due 2013, the Senior Notes due 2017 and the Rabobank Term Loan) with similar asset sale provisions, pro rata at 100% of the tendered principal amount thereof (or 100% of the accreted value of such other Pari Passu Indebtedness so tendered, if such Pari Passu Indebtedness was offered at a discount) plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the purchase date and (D) fourth, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application in accordance with clauses (A), (B) and (C) above, to fund (to the extent consistent with any other applicable provision of this Indenture) any corporate purpose; provided, however, that in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to clause (A) or (C) above, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related loan commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (b) of this covenant, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to apply any Net Available Cash in accordance with paragraph (b) of this covenant except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions that is not yet applied in accordance with this Section 3.7 exceeds $10.0 million.

(b) In the case of the second paragraph of paragraph (a) or clause (b)(iii)(B) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Available Cash from the date of such commitment; provided that (A) such Net Available Cash is applied to acquire Additional Assets within 540 days of the Asset Disposition and (B) in the event such binding commitment is later canceled or terminated for any reason before such Net Available Cash is so applied, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may satisfy its obligations as to any Net Available Cash by entering into another binding commitment within 90 days of such cancellation or termination of the prior binding commitment or termination of the prior binding commitment and applying the Net Available Cash within 180 days of such subsequent binding commitment; provided further that the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may only enter into such a commitment under the foregoing provision one time with respect to each Asset Disposition.

(c) In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of Securities pursuant to clause (b)(iii)(C) above, the Company will be required to apply such Excess Proceeds (as defined below) to the repayment of the Securities and any other Pari Passu Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the Senior Notes due 2009, the Senior Notes due 2011, the Senior Notes due 2013 and the Senior Notes due 2017) outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Company to make an offer to purchase such Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Disposition as follows: (A) the Company will make an offer to purchase (an “Offer”) within ten days of such time from all Holders in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture in the maximum principal amount (expressed as a multiple of $1,000) of Securities that may be purchased out of an amount (the “Note Amount”) equal to the product of such Excess Proceeds multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Securities and the denominator

63

of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Securities and such Pari Passu Indebtedness and (B) to the extent required by such Pari Passu Indebtedness to permanently reduce the principal amount of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, the Company will make an offer to purchase or otherwise repurchase or redeem such Pari Passu Indebtedness (a “Pari Passu Offer”) in an amount equal to the excess of the Excess Proceeds over the Note Amount at a purchase price of 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest (or 100% of the accreted value of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, if such Pari Passu Indebtedness was offered at a discount) to the purchase date in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in this Indenture with respect to the Offer and in the documentation governing such Pari Passu Indebtedness with respect to the Pari Passu Offer. If the aggregate purchase price of the Securities and Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to the Offer and Pari Passu Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the remaining Excess Proceeds will be available to the Company for use in accordance with clause (b)(iii)(D) above. The Company shall not be required to make an Offer for Securities pursuant to Section 3.7 if the Net Available Cash available therefor (after application of the proceeds as provided in clauses (b)(iii)(A) and (b)(iii)(B) above) (“Excess Proceeds”) is less than $10.0 million (which lesser amounts shall be carried forward for purposes of determining whether an Offer is required with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition).

(d) The Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Disposition Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Disposition Offer Period (the “Disposition Purchase Date”), the Company will purchase the principal amount of Securities (and other Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.7(a)) and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 3.7 (the “Disposition Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Disposition Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Securities (and other Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.7(a)) and Pari Passu Indebtedness, if applicable, validly tendered in response to the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, as applicable.

Upon the commencement of a Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, as applicable, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders of the Securities. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Securities pursuant to the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, as applicable. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, as applicable, will state:

(i) that the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.7 and the length of time the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer will remain open;

(ii) the Disposition Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Disposition Purchase Date;

64

(iii) that any Security not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest;

(iv) that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Security accepted for payment pursuant to the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Disposition Purchase Date;

(v) that Holders electing to have a Security purchased pursuant to a Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, as applicable, may elect to have Securities purchased in denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof only;

(vi) that Holders electing to have a Security purchased pursuant to any Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, as applicable, will be required to surrender the Security, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Security completed, or transfer its interest in such Security by book-entry transfer, to the Company or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days before the Disposition Purchase Date;

(vii) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Disposition Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Security purchased;

(viii) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Securities, Rabobank Term Loans and, if applicable, other Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Disposition Offer Amount, the Company will select the Securities, Rabobank Term Loans and, if applicable, other Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Securities, Rabobank Term Loans and such other Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate so that only Securities in denominations of $2,000, or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased); and

(ix) that Holders whose Securities were purchased only in part will be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer) but no less than an aggregate principal amount of $2,000.

If the Disposition Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid on such Disposition Purchase Date to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Securities pursuant to the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer.

65

On or before the Disposition Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Disposition Offer Amount of Securities (and Rabobank Term Loans, and other Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.7(a)) and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Securities (and Rabobank Term Loans, and other Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.7(a)) and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, or if less than the Disposition Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Securities (and Rabobank Term Loans, and other Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.7(a)) and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Securities or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.7 and, in addition, the Company will deliver all certificates and notes and loans required, if any, by the agreements governing the other Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.7(a) and the terms of the Rabobank Term Loans and other the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Company or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Disposition Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder of Securities or holder or lender of the Rabobank Term Loans or such other Indebtedness or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Securities, the Rabobank Term Loans or such other Indebtedness or Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Security, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers’ Certificate from the Company, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Security to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Security surrendered; provided that each such new Security will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Company will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the other Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.7(a) and the terms of the Rabobank Term Loans and other Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Security not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Collateral Disposition Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, as applicable, on the Disposition Purchase Date.

(e) For the purposes of this Section 3.7, the following are deemed to be cash: (x) the assumption of Indebtedness of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock, Subordinated Indebtedness, Junior Lien Collateral Indebtedness or Senior Unsecured Pari Passu Indebtedness) or Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Guarantor Subordinated Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, Junior Lien Collateral Indebtedness or Senior Unsecured Pari Passu Indebtedness of any Subsidiary Guarantor) and the release of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition, (y) securities received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted within 30 days by the Company or such

Upon the completion of the application of the Net Available Cash from any Asset Disposition pursuant to paragraph (b) above, the amount of Net Available Cash attributable to such Asset Disposition shall be deemed to be zero.

(f) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to this Section 3.7.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction or series of transactions (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or assets or the rendering of any service or the making of any Investment) with any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) on terms: (i) that are less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained at the time of such transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person who is not an Affiliate and (ii) that, in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate amount in excess of $10.0 million, are not in writing and have not been approved or negotiated and entered into on behalf of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary by Senior Management acting pursuant to authorizing resolutions adopted by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors or by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors having no personal stake in such Affiliate Transaction (and such majority or majorities, as the case may be, determines that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria in clause (i) above). In addition, any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate payments or other transfers by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in excess of $20.0 million will also require an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or appraiser, as appropriate, of national prominence, to the effect that the terms of such transaction are either (i) no less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained at the time of such transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person who is not an Affiliate or (ii) fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from a financial point of view.

(a) The provisions of Section 3.8(a) shall not prohibit (i) any Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment permitted to be paid pursuant to Section 3.4, (ii) the

67

performance of the Company’s or its Restricted Subsidiary’s obligations under any collective bargaining agreement, employee benefit plan, related trust agreement or any other similar arrangement heretofore or hereafter entered into in the ordinary course of business, (iii) payment of reasonable fees and compensation to employees, officers or directors as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or Senior Management (including indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, directors’ and officers’ insurance and similar arrangements, employment contracts, non-competition and confidentiality agreements and similar instruments or payments) and entered into in the ordinary course of business, (iv) maintenance in the ordinary course of business of reasonable benefit programs or arrangements for employees, officers or directors, including vacation plans, health and life insurance plans, SERPs, split-dollar life insurance plans, deferred compensation plans, and retirement or savings plans and similar plans as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or Senior Management, (v) any transaction between the Company and a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary or between Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries, (vi) transactions effected as part of a Qualified Receivables Transaction, (vii) any issuance by the Company of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) or other payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, stock options and stock ownership plans to the extent reasonable, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors in the ordinary course of business, and loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries consistent with past practices, (viii) transactions with customers, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case, in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated third party, in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors of the Company or Senior Management, (ix) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that in the reasonable determination of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company or Senior Management, such transactions are on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person, and (x) any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date or any amendment thereto (so long as any such amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect).

SECTION 3.9. Change of Control. 8.1.6. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date) provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to repurchase the Securities pursuant to this Section 3.9 to the extent that the Company has exercised its right to redeem Securities pursuant to the terms of Section 5.1.

68

(a) In the event that at the time of such Change of Control the terms of any Indebtedness restrict or prohibit the repurchase of Securities pursuant to Section 3.9(a), then prior to the mailing of the notice to Holders provided for in Section 3.9(c) but in any event within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall either (i) repay in full all such Indebtedness or offer to repay in full all such Indebtedness and repay the Indebtedness of each lender who has accepted such offer or (ii) obtain the requisite consent under the agreements governing such Indebtedness to permit the repurchase of the Securities as provided for in Section 3.9(c). The Company will first comply with the preceding sentence of this Section 3.9(b) before the Company will be required to make the Change of Control Offer or to purchase the Securities pursuant to this Section 3.9; provided, that compliance with this clause (b) will not extend the time periods set forth in Section 3.9(c) for the Company to make an offer to repurchase the Securities in connection with a Change of Control.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.9(b), within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee stating:

(1) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a Regular Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date);

(2) the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Change of Control;

(3) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed) (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(4) that any Security not tendered will continue to accrue interest pursuant to its terms;

(5) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the purchase price, any Security accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date; and

(6) the instructions determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 3.9, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities purchased or to cancel a previous order of purchase.

(c) Holders electing to have a Security purchased will be required to surrender the Security, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Company at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the purchase date. Each Holder will be entitled to withdraw its election if the Company receives, not later than one Business Day prior to the purchase date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter from such

69

Holder setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of the Security or Securities which were delivered for purchase by such Holder and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Security or Securities purchased.

(d) On or before the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company must: (i) accept for payment Securities or portions of Securities tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the purchase price of all Securities or portions of the Securities so accepted and (iii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee, all Securities or portions of the Securities so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate specifying the Securities or portions of the Securities accepted for payment by the Company. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail, to the Holders of Securities so accepted, payment in an amount equal to the purchase price, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail to such Holders a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered; provided that each Security purchased and each new Security issued shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(e) The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(f) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be paid to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

(g) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to this Section 3.9. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 3.9, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue thereof.

SECTION 3.10. Limitation on the Sale or Issuance of Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries. The Company (i) will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, transfer, convey, lease, sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary to any Person (other than to the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary), and (ii) will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to issue or sell any shares of its Capital Stock (other than directors’ qualifying shares) to any Person (other than to the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary); provided, however, that (x) the Company is permitted to sell all the Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary as long as the Company is in compliance with the terms of Section 3.7 and (y) the Company is permitted to sell less than all of the Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary if (A) immediately after giving effect to such sale such Restricted Subsidiary either continues to be a Restricted Subsidiary or if such Restricted Subsidiary would no longer constitute a Restricted Subsidiary then the Investment in such Person remaining after

70

giving effect to such sale would have been permitted to be made under Section 3.4 if made on the date of such issuance or sale and (B) the Company is in compliance with the terms of Section 3.7. In the case of clause (x), such Restricted Subsidiary, if a Subsidiary Guarantor, will be automatically released from all its obligations under this Indenture, its Subsidiary Guarantee, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Liens (if any) on the Collateral pledged by such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the Collateral Documents shall be released with respect to the Securities if all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Guarantee under all other Debt Facilities, the Rabobank Term Loan and related documentation and any other agreements relating to any other Indebtedness of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries terminate upon consummation of such sale.

SECTION 3.11. Limitation on Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) that secures obligations under any Indebtedness on any asset or property of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, including any Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom.

SECTION 3.12. Future Guarantors.

(a) The Company will cause each Restricted Subsidiary that Guarantees, on the Issue Date or any time thereafter, any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to execute and deliver to the Trustee a Subsidiary Guarantee, in the form of a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Securities on a senior secured basis and all other obligations under this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (i) a Subsidiary Guarantor is released and discharged in full from all of its obligations under its Guarantees of (1) the ABL Credit Facility and (2) all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, and (ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor has not Incurred any Indebtedness in reliance on its status as a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 3.3 or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under such Indebtedness are satisfied in full and discharged or are otherwise permitted to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary Guarantor) under Section 3.3(b) then the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released or discharged.

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

71

(c) Each Subsidiary Guarantee shall be released in accordance with Article X.

(d) Each Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor on or after the Issue Date shall also become a party to the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and shall as promptly as practicable execute and deliver such security instruments, financing statements, mortgages, deeds of trust (in substantially the same form as those executed and delivered with respect to the First Priority Collateral and the Second Priority Collateral) and certificates and opinions of counsel ( to the extent, and substantially in the form, delivered on the Issue Date (but no greater scope)) as may be necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected first or second priority security interest, as the case may be, (subject to Permitted Liens) upon all its properties and assets (other than Excluded Property) as security for the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees and as may be necessary to have such property or asset added to the Collateral as required under the Collateral Documents and this Indenture, 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; provided, however, that if granting such first or second priority security interest, as the case may be, in any such property or asset requires the consent of a third party, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent for the benefit of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Holders; provided, further, however, that if after the use of commercially reasonable efforts, such third party does not consent, to the first or second priority security interest on an asset or property that would constitute an immaterial portion of the Collateral, the Subsidiary Guarantor will not be required to provide such security interest.

SECTION 3.13. Limitation on Lines of Business. The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than a Related Business.

SECTION 3.14. Effectiveness of Covenants. The covenants described under Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.10, 3.12 and 3.13 will no longer be in effect upon the Company’s reaching Investment Grade Status.

SECTION 3.15. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in The City of New York, an office or agency where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where, if applicable, the Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The corporate trust office of the Trustee, which initially shall be located at U.S. Bank National Association 1349 West Peachtree St. NW, Suite 1050, Atlanta, Georgia 30309 (the “Corporate Trust Office”) shall be such office or agency of the Company, unless the Company shall designate and maintain some other office or agency for one or more of such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change in the location of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address

72

thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or outside of The City of New York) where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind any such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in The City of New York for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

SECTION 3.16. Money for Security Payments to Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure to so act.

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for the Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Securities, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum in same day funds (or New York Clearing House funds if such deposit is made prior to the date on which such deposit is required to be made) that shall be available to the Trustee by 10:00 a.m. New York City time on such due date sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of such action or any failure to so act.

The Company will cause each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

(a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

(b) give the Trustee written notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest; and

(c) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

73

The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Order, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment to the Company, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a leading daily newspaper (if practicable, The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition)) printed in the English language and of general circulation in New York City, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication nor shall it be later than two years after such principal (or premium, if any) or interest shall have become due and payable, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 3.17. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article IV, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and that of each Restricted Subsidiary and the corporate rights (charter and statutory) licenses and franchises of the Company and each Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such existence (except the Company), right, license or franchise if the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not, and will not be, disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

SECTION 3.18. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. The Company shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary and (ii) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid, might by law become a material liability or lien upon the property of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which appropriate reserves, if necessary (in the good faith judgment of management of the Company) are being maintained in accordance with GAAP.

74

SECTION 3.19. Maintenance of Properties. The Company will cause all material properties owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or used or held for use in the conduct of its business or the business of any Restricted Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in normal condition, repair and working order and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from discontinuing the maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Restricted Subsidiary and not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

SECTION 3.20. Insurance. To the extent available at commercially reasonable rates, the Company will maintain, and will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance with responsible carriers against such risks and in such amounts, and with such deductibles, retentions, self-insured amounts and co-insurance provisions, as are customarily carried by similar businesses, of similar size in their country of organization, including professional and general liability, property and casualty loss, workers’ compensation and interruption of business insurance. In the event the Company determines that insurance satisfying the first sentence of this Section 3.20 is not available at commercially reasonable rates, it shall provide an Officers’ Certificate to such effect to the Trustee and the Trustee may conclusively rely on the determinations set forth therein.

SECTION 3.21. Compliance with Laws. The Company shall comply, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply, with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of the United States of America, all states and municipalities thereof, and of any governmental regulatory authority, in respect of the conduct of their respective businesses and the ownership of their respective properties, except for such noncompliances as would not in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

SECTION 3.22. Compliance Certificate. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each Fiscal Year of the Company an Officers’ Certificate stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Company they would normally have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default or Event of Default that occurred during such period. If they do, the certificate shall describe the Default or Event of Default, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Officers’ Certificate shall also notify the Trustee should the then current Fiscal Year be changed to end on any date other than on the date as herein defined.

SECTION 3.23. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

75

SECTION 3.24. Statement by Officers as to Default. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 10 days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default or default, its status and the actions which the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

(a) Prior to July 15, 2012, the Company may, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the original principal amount of the Securities with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Public Equity Offerings at a redemption price of 110% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided that:

(i) at least 65% of the original principal amount of the Securities (exclusive of Additional Notes) remains outstanding after each such redemption; and

(ii) the redemption occurs within 60 days after the closing of such Public Equity Offering.

If the optional redemption date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the person in whose name the Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Securities will be subject to redemption by the Company.

At any time prior to the Maturity Date of the Securities, the Securities may be redeemed or purchased by the Company, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at a price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to, the date of such redemption or purchase (the “Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). Such redemption or purchase may be made upon notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date. The Company may provide in such notice that payment of the Redemption Price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption or purchase may be performed by another Person. Any such redemption, purchase or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction or one or more conditions precedent, including but not limited to the occurrence of a Change of Control.

SECTION 5.2. Applicability of Article. Redemption of Securities at the election of the Company or otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article.

79

SECTION 5.3. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities pursuant to Section 5.1 shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company, the Company shall, upon not later than the earlier of the date that is 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company or the date on which notice is given to the Holders (except as provided in Section 5.5 or unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and shall deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to select the Securities to be redeemed pursuant to Section 5.4.

SECTION 5.4. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to an optional redemption, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, in compliance with the requirements of the principal securities exchange, if any, on which such Securities are listed, or, if such Securities are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements) and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal of the Securities; provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Security not redeemed to less than $1,000.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 5.5. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided for in Section 12.1 not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed. The Trustee shall give notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice at the Company’s expense and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the following items.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(a) the Redemption Date,

(b) the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 5.7, if any,

80

(c) if less than all outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Securities (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be outstanding after such partial redemption,

(d) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed,

(e) that on the Redemption Date the redemption price (and accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 5.7) will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and, unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, that interest on Securities called for redemption (or the portion thereof) will cease to accrue on and after said date,

(f) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any,

(g) the name and address of the Paying Agent,

(h) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price,

(i) the CUSIP number, and that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities, and

(j) the paragraph of the Securities pursuant to which the Securities are to be redeemed.

SECTION 5.6. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.4) an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

SECTION 5.7. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified (together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the redemption price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

81

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Securities.

SECTION 5.8. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article) shall be surrendered at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 3.15 (with, if the Company so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder of such Security at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered, provided, that each such new Security will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or integral multiple thereof.

ARTICLE VI

Defaults and Remedies

SECTION 6.1. Events of Default.

An “Event of Default” occurs if:

(1) the Company defaults in any payment of interest on any Security when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of 30 days;

(2) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on any Security when the same becomes due and payable at its Stated Maturity, upon required repurchase, upon declaration or otherwise;

(3) the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor fails to comply with Article IV;

(4) the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary fails to comply with Section 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 or 3.13 (in each case other than a failure to repurchase Securities when required pursuant to Section 3.7 or 3.9, which failure shall constitute an Event of Default under Section 6.1(2)) and such failure continues for 30 days after the notice specified below;

(5) the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor defaults in the performance of or a breach by the Company of any other covenant or agreement in this Indenture or under the Securities (other than those referred to in (1), (2), (3) or (4) above), the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and such default continues for a period of 60 days after the notice specified below;

82

(6) the failure by any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary (if any) to comply with its obligations under any Subsidiary Guarantee, Collateral Document or Intercreditor Agreement to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party, after any applicable grace period;

(7) Indebtedness of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary is not paid within any applicable grace period after final maturity or is accelerated by the holders thereof if the total amount of such unpaid or accelerated Indebtedness exceeds $25.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time;

(8) the Company or a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (as defined below):

(A) commences a voluntary case;

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;

(C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian (as defined below) of it or for any substantial part of its property; or

(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency;

(9) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(A) is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or

(C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary;

or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order, decree or relief remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days;

(10) any judgment or decree for the payment of money in excess of $25.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time in the aggregate for all such final judgments or orders against the Company or a Significant Subsidiary if (A) an enforcement proceeding thereon is commenced and not discharged within ten days or (B) such judgment or decree remains outstanding for a period of 60 days following such judgment or decree and is not discharged, waived, stayed or bonded;

83

(11) the failure of any Subsidiary Guarantee or Collateral Document entered into by a Subsidiary Guarantor (if any) which is a Significant Subsidiary to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms thereof) or the denial or disaffirmation by any such Subsidiary Guarantor of its obligations under any Subsidiary Guarantee or Collateral Document if such Default continues for 30 days; and

(12) with respect to any Collateral having a fair market value in excess of $25.0 million, individually or in the aggregate, (A) the failure of the security interest with respect to such Collateral under the Collateral Documents, at any time, to be in full force and effect for any reason other than in accordance with their terms and the terms of this Indenture and other than the satisfaction in full of all obligations under this Indenture and discharge of this Indenture if such Default continues for 60 days, (B) the declaration that the security interest with respect to such Collateral created under the Collateral Documents or under this Indenture is invalid or unenforceable, if such Default continues for 60 days or (C) the assertion by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in any pleading in any court of competent jurisdiction, that any such security interest is invalid or unenforceable.

The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Default under clause (4), (5) or (12)(A) or (B) of this Section 6.1 will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities notify the Company of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in said clause (4) or (5) after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default”.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any Event of Default under clauses (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (10) or (11) of this Section 6.1.

SECTION 6.2. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(8) or (9) with respect to the Company or a Significant Subsidiary) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and interest shall, subject to Section 9.4, be

84

immediately due and payable. In the event of a declaration of acceleration because an Event of Default set forth in Section 6.1(7) above has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the event of default or payment default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.1(7) shall be remedied or cured by the Company and/or the relevant Significant Subsidiaries or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 60 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(8) or (9) with respect to the Company or a Significant Subsidiary occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may waive all past defaults (except with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Securities and its consequences if (i) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any and interest on the Securities that has become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived and (ii) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 6.3. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities, this Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements.

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

SECTION 6.4. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences except (i) a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Security or (ii) a Default or Event of Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.2 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequent right.

SECTION 6.5. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for 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 and the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, or, subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.2, that the Trustee or the Collateral

85

Agent determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee or the Collateral Agent in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 6.6. Limitation on Suits. A Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless:

(1) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) the Holders of at least 25% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

(4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during 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 6.7. 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) or interest on the Securities held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Securities, 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 6.8. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.6.

SECTION 6.9. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective creditors or properties and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial

86

proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.6.

SECTION 6.10. Priorities. (a) With respect to the First Priority Collateral, the Trustee shall pay out any money or property received by it from the Collateral Agent, whether pursuant to the foreclosure or other remedial provisions contained in the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements (including any money or property deposited into the Non-ABL Collateral Account in connection therewith) or otherwise, in the following order:

First: to the Trustee for amounts due to it under Section 7.6 and to the Collateral Agent for fees and expenses incurred under the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements;

Second: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Third: to the Company or, to the extent the Trustee receives any amount for any Subsidiary Guarantor, to such Subsidiary Guarantor; and

(b) With respect to the Second Priority Collateral, the Trustee shall pay out any money or property received by it from the Collateral Agent, whether pursuant to the foreclosure or other remedial provisions contained in the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements (including any money or property deposited into the ABL Collateral Account in connection therewith) or otherwise, in the following order:

First: to the Trustee for amounts due to it under Section 7.6 and to the Collateral Agent for fees and expenses incurred under the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements;

Second: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Third: to the Company or, to the extent the Trustee receives any amount for any Subsidiary Guarantor, to such Subsidiary Guarantor;

provided, however, that the payments set forth above shall with respect to the Second Priority Collateral be made only after the satisfaction and discharge in full of the security interest and lien of the administrative agent under the ABL Credit Facility pursuant to the ABL Credit Facility and related documents.

87

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

SECTION 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by the Company, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.7 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities.

ARTICLE VII

Trustee

SECTION 7.1. Duties of Trustee. 8.1.7. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs; provided that if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered the Trustee or the Collateral Agent reasonable indemnity or security against loss, liability or expense.

(a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, as applicable. However, in the case of any such certificates or

88

opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, as the case may be (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

(b) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section;

(2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer or Trust Officers unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.5.

(c) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company.

(d) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(e) No provision of this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(f) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

(g) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

SECTION 7.2. Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond or any other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person or Persons. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

89

(b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

(c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or negligence.

(e) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder or under the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(f) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond or other paper or document; but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit.

(g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default except (i), during any period it is serving as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Securities, any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Section 6.1(1) and 6.1(2), or (ii) any Default or Event of Default of which a Trust Officer shall have received written notification or obtained “actual knowledge.” “Actual knowledge” shall mean the actual fact or statement of knowing by a Trust Officer without independent investigation with respect thereto.

SECTION 7.3. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11. In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions with the Company; provided, however, that if the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest the Trustee must (i) eliminate such conflict within 90 days of acquiring such conflicting interest, (ii) apply to the SEC for permission to continue acting as Trustee or (iii) resign.

90

SECTION 7.4. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the Securities or the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication or for the use or application of any funds received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee.

SECTION 7.5. Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if a Trust Officer has actual knowledge thereof, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium (if any), or interest on any Security (including payments pursuant to the required repurchase provisions of such Security, if any), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its board of directors, a committee of its board of directors or a committee of its Trust Officers and/or a Trust Officer of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

SECTION 7.6. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its services as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including, but not limited to, costs of collection, costs of preparing and reviewing reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel retained by the Trustee in connection with the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel or otherwise, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company shall indemnify the Collateral Agent, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder (including Paying Agent, and Registrar), and each of their officers, directors, employees, counsel and agents, against any and all loss, liability or expense (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder and under the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this Section 7.6), the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Company or otherwise). The Collateral Agent and the Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Collateral Agent and the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Collateral Agent and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Collateral Agent and the Trustee through their own wilful misconduct, negligence or bad faith, subject to the exceptions contained in Section 7.1(c) hereof.

91

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities. The right of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee to receive payment of any amounts due under this Section 7.6 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the Company.

The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section and any lien arising hereunder shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.1(8) or (9) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 7.7. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Company and the Trustee in writing and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.9;

(2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.6.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition, at the Company’s expense, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

92

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.9, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.7, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.6 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.8. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

SECTION 7.9. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million as set forth in its most recent filed annual report of condition.

ARTICLE VIII

Discharge of Indenture; Defeasance

SECTION 8.1. Discharge of Liability on Securities; Defeasance. (a) When (i) the Company delivers to the Trustee all outstanding Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.9) for cancellation or (ii) all outstanding Securities not theretofore delivered for cancellation have become due and payable whether at maturity or upon redemption pursuant to Article V hereof and the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor irrevocably deposits or causes to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders money in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity and the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this

93

Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of such Securities at maturity, and the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor pays all other sums payable under this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 8.1(c), cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and release of all Liens on the Collateral with respect to the Securities on demand of the Company (accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent specified herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with) and at the cost and expense of the Company.

(b) Subject to Sections 8.1(c) and 8.2, the Company at its option and at any time may terminate (i) all the obligations of the Company and any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Securities, this Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, and cause the release of all Liens on the Collateral granted under the Collateral Documents (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) the obligations of the Company and any Subsidiary Guarantor under Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 4.1(a)(iii), 4.1(a)(v) and 4.2(iv) and the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant or provision, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or provision or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply with such covenants or provisions shall no longer constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.1(3) and 6.1(4) (“covenant defeasance option”), but except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, the Securities, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements shall be unaffected thereby. The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, the Subsidiary Guarantees in effect at such time shall terminate and the Liens on Collateral shall terminate and shall be released with respect to the Securities.

If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.1(4), 6.1(6), 6.1(7), 6.1(8) (but only with respect to a Significant Subsidiary), 6.1(9) (but only with respect to a Significant Subsidiary), 6.1(10), 6.1(11) or 6.1(12) or because of the failure of the Company to comply with Sections 4.1(a)(iii), 4.1(a)(v) and 4.2(iv).

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 8.1(a) and (b), the Company’s obligations in Sections 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 6.7, 6.8, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6 shall survive until the Securities have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Company’s obligations in Sections 6.7, 8.4 and 8.5 shall survive.

94

SECTION 8.2. Conditions to Defeasance. The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

(1) the Company irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders money in U.S. dollars or U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof the principal of and interest (without reinvestment) on which will be sufficient, or a combination thereof sufficient, for the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities to maturity;

(2) the Company delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal and interest when due on all the Securities to maturity;

(3) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default with respect to this Indenture resulting from the incurrence of Indebtedness, all or a portion of which will be used to defease the Securities concurrently with such incurrence);

(4) such legal defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default under this Indenture, the Securities, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

(5) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) the Securities and (B) assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Company between the date of deposit and the 91st day following the deposit and that no Holder of the Securities is an insider of the Company, after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ right generally;

(6) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other agreement binding on the Company;

(7) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not constitute, or is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940;

95

(8) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States stating that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such legal defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such legal defeasance had not occurred;

(9) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and

(10) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Securities and this Indenture as contemplated by this Article VIII have been complied with.

SECTION 8.3. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article VIII. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities.

SECTION 8.4. Repayment to Company. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Order any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article VIII which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect legal defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, provided that the Trustee shall not be required to liquidate any U.S. Government Obligations in order to comply with the provisions of this paragraph.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors.

SECTION 8.5. Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations. The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.

96

SECTION 8.6. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII 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 obligations of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII; provided, however, that, if the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors have made any payment of interest on or principal of any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE IX

Amendments

SECTION 9.1. Without Consent of Holders. The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements without notice to or consent of any Holder:

(1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

(2) to comply with (i) Article IV in respect of the assumption by a Successor Company of an obligation of the Company under this Indenture, the Securities, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and (ii) Article X in respect of the assumption by a Person of the obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee, this Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements;

(3) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; provided, however, that the uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code or in a manner such that the uncertificated Securities are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code;

(4) to add Guarantees with respect to the Securities, to secure the Securities or to release a Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

97

(5) to pledge or grant a security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent as additional security for the payment and performance of the Company’s and Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations with respect to the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees thereof, in any property or assets, including any that are required to be mortgaged, pledged or hypothecated or in which a security interest is required to be granted, to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents or otherwise;

(6) to release Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral as provided under Section 11.6;

(7) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; and

(8) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder.

After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

SECTION 9.2. With Consent of Holders. The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. Subject to clause (a)(vi) of Section 11.6, any past default or compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities). However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment may not:

(1) reduce the principal amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment;

(2) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Security;

(3) reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Security;

(4) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption or repurchase of any Security or change the time at which any Security may or shall be redeemed or repurchased in accordance with Section 3.7, 3.9 or Article V;

(5) make any Security payable in money other than that stated in the Security;

98

(6) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Holder’s Securities on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Securities;

(7) release any Subsidiary Guarantor, if any, from any of its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture, except in compliance with the terms thereof;

(8) modify the Subsidiary Guarantees in any manner, taken as a whole, materially adverse to the Holders;

(9) modify any Collateral Document or the provisions in this Indenture dealing with Collateral Documents or application of trust moneys in any manner, taken as a whole, materially adverse to the Holders or otherwise release any Collateral other than in accordance with this Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements;

(10) modify the Intercreditor Agreements in any manner adverse to the Holders in any material respect other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements; and

(11) make any change in the amendment provisions which require each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

SECTION 9.3. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver made pursuant to Section 9.2 shall become effective upon receipt by the Trustee of the requisite number of written consents.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above

99

or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall become valid or effective more than 120 days after such record date.

SECTION 9.4. Notation on or Exchange of Securities. If an amendment changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

SECTION 9.5. Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment does not, in the sole determination of the Trustee, adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

ARTICLE X

Subsidiary Guarantee

SECTION 10.1. Subsidiary Guarantee.

Subject to the provisions of this Article X, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Subsidiary Guarantor, to each Holder of the Securities, to the extent lawful, and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities and all other obligations and liabilities of the Company under this Indenture (including without limitation interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding and the obligations under Section 7.6), the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Obligations”). Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that the Obligations will rank equally in right of payment with other Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor, except to the extent such other Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the Obligations, in which case the Obligations will rank senior in right of payment to such other Indebtedness. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees (to the extent lawful) that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound under this Article X notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.

100

Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Obligations and also waives (to the extent lawful) notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) notice of any default under the Securities or the Obligations.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein constitutes a Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Obligations.

Except as set forth in Section 4.2, Section 10.2 and Article VIII, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not (to the extent lawful) be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor herein shall not (to the extent lawful) be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Collateral Agent for the Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Subsidiary Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Company; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or (h) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Obligations or such Subsidiary Guarantor is released from its Subsidiary Guarantee upon the merger or the sale of all the Capital Stock or assets of the Subsidiary Guarantor or otherwise in compliance with Section 4.2, Section 10.2 and Article VIII. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure

101

of the Company to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Trustee or the Trustee on behalf of the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law).

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Subsidiary Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section.

Neither the Company nor the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be required to make a notation on the Securities to reflect any Subsidiary Guarantee or any release, termination or discharge thereof and any such notation shall not be a condition to the validity of any Subsidiary Guarantee.

SECTION 10.2. Limitation on Liability; Termination, Release and Discharge.

(a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including, without limitation, any guarantees under all Debt Facilities) and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

(b) Upon the sale or disposition of a Subsidiary Guarantor (by merger, consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets (other than by lease)) and whether or not the Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving corporation in such transaction, to a Person which is not the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiary Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released from all its obligations under this Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee, the Collateral Documents to

102

which it is a party and the Intercreditor Agreements, such Subsidiary Guarantee will terminate and the Liens, if any, on the Collateral pledged by such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the Collateral Documents shall be released with respect to the Securities if (x) the sale or other disposition is in compliance with this Indenture, including Section 3.7 (it being understood that only such portion of the Net Available Cash as is required to be applied on or before the date of such release in accordance with the terms of this Indenture needs to be applied in accordance therewith at such time), Section 3.10 and Section 4.2 and (y) all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under all Debt Facilities and related documentation and any other agreements relating to any other Indebtedness of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries terminate upon consummation of such transaction.

(c) Each Subsidiary Guarantor will be deemed released from all its obligations under this Indenture, its Subsidiary Guarantee, the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and the Intercreditor Agreements, and such Subsidiary Guarantee will terminate, upon the legal defeasance of the Securities or upon satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, in each case pursuant to the provisions of Article VIII hereof.

(d) In the event that a Subsidiary Guarantor is released and discharged in full from all of its obligations under its Guarantees of the ABL Credit Facility and all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and such Subsidiary Guarantor has not Incurred any Indebtedness in reliance on its status as a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 3.3 or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under such Indebtedness are satisfied in full and discharged or are otherwise permitted to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary Guarantor) under Section 3.3(b) then the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released or discharged from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee (subject to the future application of Section 3.12).

(e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor will be released from its obligations under this Indenture, its Subsidiary Guarantee, the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and the Intercreditor Agreements if the Company designates such Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation complies with the other applicable provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.3. Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made on the obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantees, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. The provisions of this Section 10.3 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of each Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

103

SECTION 10.4. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder against the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee or any Holder for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Subsidiary Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustee and the Holders by the Company on account of the Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Subsidiary Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Subsidiary Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Subsidiary Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Obligations.

ARTICLE XI

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]

10% Senior Secured Note, due 2014

1. | Interest

Smithfield Foods, Inc., a Virginia corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above.

The Company will pay interest semiannually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, with the first interest payment to be made on January 15, 2010. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the Securities or, if no interest has been paid, from July 2, 2009. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal or premium, if any (plus interest on such interest to the extent lawful), at the rate borne by the Securities to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. | Method of Payment

By no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security is due and payable, the Company shall irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest. The Company will pay interest (except Defaulted Interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the close of business on the January 1 and July 1 next preceding the interest payment date even if Securities are cancelled, repurchased or redeemed after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by the transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary. The Company will make all payments in respect of a Definitive Security (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on the Securities may also be made, in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Securities, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 15 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

3. | Paying Agent and Registrar

Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America and having a corporate trust office in Atlanta, Georgia (“Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

A-3

4. | Indenture

The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of July 2, 2009 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms.

The Securities are senior secured obligations of the Company. The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture is unlimited, provided that to the extent not applied to refinance Indebtedness, the Net Cash Proceeds from any issuance of Additional Notes are invested in Additional Assets in accordance with the Indenture. This Security is one of the 10% Senior Secured Notes, due 2014 referred to in the Indenture. The Securities include (i) $625,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Notes, due 2014 issued under the Indenture on July 2, 2009 (herein called “Initial Notes”) and (ii) if and when issued, additional 10% Senior Secured Notes due 2014 of the Company that may be issued from time to time under the Indenture subsequent to July 2, 2009 (herein called “Additional Notes”). The Initial Notes and Additional Notes are treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture and shall be secured by first and second priority Liens and security interests, subject to Permitted Liens, in the Collateral. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the Incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company and its Subsidiaries, the payment of dividends and other distributions on the Capital Stock of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the purchase or redemption of Capital Stock of the Company and Capital Stock of such Subsidiaries, certain purchases or redemptions of Junior Lien Collateral Indebtedness, Senior Unsecured Pari Passu Indebtedness, Subordinated Indebtedness or Guarantor Subordinated Indebtedness, the sale or transfer of assets and Capital Stock of Subsidiaries, certain Sale/Leaseback Transactions involving the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, the issuance or sale of Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries, the incurrence of certain Liens, future Subsidiary Guarantors, the business activities and investments of the Company and its Subsidiaries and transactions with Affiliates, provided, however, certain of such limitations will no longer be in effect if the Securities receive a rating of “BBB-” or higher from Standard & Poor’s Rating Services (or its successors) and “Baa3” or higher from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (or its successors). In addition, the Indenture limits the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to enter into agreements that restrict distributions and dividends from Subsidiaries. The Indenture also imposes requirements with respect to the provision of financial information.

To guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest (including post-filing or post-petition interest) on the Securities and all other amounts payable by the Company under the Indenture, the Securities, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, the

A-4

Subsidiary Guarantors have unconditionally guaranteed (and future guarantors, together with the Subsidiary Guarantors, will unconditionally Guarantee), jointly and severally, such obligations on a senior, secured basis pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

5. | Redemption

Prior to July 15, 2012, the Company may, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the original principal amount of the Securities with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Public Equity Offerings at a redemption price of 110% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided that:

(i) at least 65% of the original principal amount of the Securities (exclusive of Additional Notes) remains outstanding after each such redemption; and

(ii) the redemption occurs within 60 days after the closing of such Public Equity Offering.

If the optional redemption date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the person in whose name the Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Securities will be subject to redemption by the Company.

At any time prior to the Maturity Date of the Securities, the Securities may be redeemed or purchased by the Company, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at a price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to, the date of such redemption or purchase (the “Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). Such redemption or purchase may be made upon notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date. The Company may provide in such notice that payment of the Redemption Price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption or purchase may be performed by another Person. Any such redemption, purchase or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction or one or more conditions precedent, including but not limited to the occurrence of a Change of Control.

In the case of any partial redemption, selection of the Securities for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed or, if the Securities are not listed, then on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate, although no Securities of $1,000 in original principal amount or less will be redeemed in part. If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption relating to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Security in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be

A-5

issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Security. On and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on Securities or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Company has deposited with the Paying Agent funds in satisfaction of the applicable redemption price pursuant to the Indenture.

6. | Put Provisions

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, any Holder of Securities will have the right to offer to cause the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Securities of such Holder at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture.

(b) In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of Securities pursuant to Section 3.7(a) or Section 3.7(b) of the Indenture, the Company will be required to apply such Excess Collateral Proceeds or Excess Proceeds, as applicable, to the repayment of the Securities, the Rabobank Term Loan and, in the case of Excess Proceeds, any Pari Passu Indebtedness in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.7 of the Indenture.

7. | Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of principal amount of $2,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities for a period beginning 15 Business Days before an interest payment date and ending on such interest payment date.

8. | Persons Deemed Owners

The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

9. | Unclaimed Money

If money for the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment.

10. | Defeasance

Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Securities and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to maturity.

A-6

11. | Amendment, Waiver

Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture, the Securities, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities and (ii) any default (other than (x) with respect to nonpayment or (y) in respect of a provision that cannot be amended without the written consent of each Holder affected or (z) with respect to Section 11.6(a)(vi) of the Indenture) or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend the Indenture, the Securities, the Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, or to comply with Article IV or Article X of the Indenture in respect of the assumption by a Successor Company of an obligation of the Company under the Indenture, or to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities, or to add guarantees with respect to the Securities or to secure the Securities, or to release a Subsidiary Guarantor upon its designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or otherwise in accordance with the Indenture, to release Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral as provided under the collateral release provisions, or to add additional covenants or surrender rights and powers conferred on the Company, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder.

12. | Defaults and Remedies

A-7

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities then outstanding may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee and the Collateral Agent may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

13. | Trustee Dealings with the Company

Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

14. | No Recourse Against Others

A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Securities, the Indenture, the Collateral Documents, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Subsidiary Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

Pursuant to the Indenture (the “Indenture”) dated as of July 2, 2009 among Smithfield Foods, Inc., the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto (each a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and collectively the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), each Subsidiary Guarantor, subject to the provisions of Article X of the Indenture, hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Subsidiary Guarantor, to each Holder of the Securities, to the extent lawful, and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities and all other obligations and liabilities of the Company under the Indenture (including without limitation interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding and the obligations under Section 7.6 of the Indenture), the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Obligations”). Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that the Obligations will rank equally in right of payment with other Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor, except to the extent such other Indebtedness is subordinate to the Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees (to the extent lawful) that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound under this Subsidiary Guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Obligations and also waives (to the extent lawful) notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Obligations.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein constitutes a Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Obligations.

Except as set forth in Section 4.2, Section 10.2 and Article VIII of the Indenture, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not (to the extent lawful) be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor herein shall not (to the extent lawful) be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other person under the Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the

A-14

Collateral Agent for the Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Subsidiary Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Company; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or (h) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

B-1

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor, the Company, the other Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities as follows:

ARTICLE I

Definitions

SECTION 1.1 Defined Terms. As used in this Supplemental Indenture, terms defined in the Indenture or in the preamble or recital hereto are used herein as therein defined, except that the term “Holders” in this Guarantee shall refer to the term “Holders” as defined in the Indenture and the Trustee acting on behalf or for the benefit of such Holders. The words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereby” and other words of similar import used in this Supplemental Indenture refer to this Supplemental Indenture as a whole and not to any particular section hereof.

ARTICLE II

Agreement to be Bound; Guarantee

SECTION 2.1 Agreement to be Bound. The Guarantor hereby becomes a party to the Indenture as a Subsidiary Guarantor and as such will have all of the rights and be subject to all of the obligations and agreements of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture. The Guarantor agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of the Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements applicable to a Subsidiary Guarantor and to perform all of the obligations and agreements of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture, the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.

SECTION 2.2 Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Subsidiary Guarantor, to each Holder of the Securities, to the extent lawful, and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities and all other obligations and liabilities of the Company under this Indenture (including without limitation interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), the Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Obligations”). Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that the Obligations will rank equally in right of payment with other Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor, except to the extent such other Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the Obligations, in which case the Obligations will rank senior in right of payment to such other Indebtedness. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees (to the extent lawful) that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound under this Supplemental Indenture notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Obligations and also waives (to the extent lawful) notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities, the Obligations or the Indenture. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor herein shall not (to the extent lawful) be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure

B-2

of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Collateral Agent for the Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Subsidiary Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Company; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; or (h) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein constitutes a Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Obligations.

Except as set forth in Section 4.2, Section 10.2 and Article VIII of the Indenture, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (to the extent lawful) shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and (to the extent lawful) shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor herein shall not (to the extent lawful) be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Collateral Agent for the Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Subsidiary Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Company; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or (h) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Subject to the provisions of Section 3.12 of the Indenture, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Obligations or such Subsidiary Guarantor is released from its Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance with the Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and the other provisions of the Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary shall automatically and unconditionally be released and discharged upon (1) any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person not an Affiliate of the Company, of all of the Company’s Capital Stock in, or all or substantially all the assets of, whether by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, such Restricted Subsidiary (which sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited by the Indenture), (2) such Restricted Subsidiary being designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Indenture by the Board of Directors or

B-3

(3) (x) the Subsidiary Guarantor is released and discharged in full from all of its obligations under its Guarantees of the ABL Credit Facility and all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and (y) such Subsidiary Guarantor has not Incurred any Indebtedness in its reliance on its status as a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 3.3 of the Indenture or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under such Indebtedness are satisfied in full and discharged or are otherwise permitted to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary Guarantor) under Section 3.3(b) or (4) any legal defeasance of the Securities or any satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law).

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Subsidiary Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section.

SECTION 2.3 Limitation on Liability. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including, without limitation, any guarantees under all Debt Facilities) and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture or applicable law, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

SECTION 2.4 Release and Discharge. Each Subsidiary Guarantor will be deemed released from all its obligations under this Indenture, its Subsidiary Guarantee, the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and the Intercreditor Agreements, and such Subsidiary Guarantee will terminate, upon the legal defeasance of the Securities or upon satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, in each case pursuant to the provisions of Article VIII hereof.

B-4

SECTION 2.5 Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made on the obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantees, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. The provisions of this Section 2.5 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of each Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 2.6 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder against the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee or any Holder for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Subsidiary Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustee and the Holders by the Company on account of the Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Subsidiary Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Subsidiary Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Subsidiary Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Obligations.

ARTICLE III

(a) Except as may be otherwise provided in the Indenture and the Term Loan Credit Agreement, and subject to Grantor’s right to contest same, prior to delinquency, Grantor shall pay and discharge all taxes, charges and assessments of every kind and nature, all charges for any easement or agreement maintained for the benefit of any of the Trust Property, all general and special assessments, levies, permits, inspection and license fees, all water and sewer rents and charges, vault taxes, and all other public charges even if unforeseen or extraordinary, imposed upon or assessed against, and in each case which may become a lien on any of the Trust Property, together with any penalties or interest on any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing are collectively referred to as the “Impositions”), except where (i) the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, and (ii) Grantor has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP. Upon request by Beneficiary, Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary evidence reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary showing the payment of any such Imposition. If by law any Imposition, at Grantor’s option, may be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Grantor may elect to pay such Imposition in such installments and shall be responsible for the payment of such installments with interest, if any.

(b) Subject to the terms of the Indenture and the Term Loan Credit Agreement, nothing herein shall affect any right or remedy of Trustee or Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust or otherwise, without notice or demand to Grantor, to pay any Imposition after the date such Imposition shall have become delinquent (unless Grantor is in compliance with clause (a) of this Section 2 in connection with such delinquency), and to add to the Secured Obligations the amount so paid, together with interest from the time of payment at the Default Rate. Any sums paid by Trustee or Beneficiary in discharge of any Impositions shall be (i) a lien on the Premises secured hereby prior to any right or title to, interest in, or claim upon the Premises subordinate to the lien of this Deed of Trust, and (ii) payable on written demand by Grantor to Beneficiary together with interest at the Default Rate as set forth above.

3. Damage or Destruction. If the Trust Property, or any material part thereof, shall be destroyed or damaged, Grantor shall give immediate notice thereof to Beneficiary. All insurance proceeds payable in connection with such destruction or damage shall be applied in the manner set forth in the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement.

5

4. Condemnation/Eminent Domain. Immediately upon obtaining knowledge of the institution of any proceedings for the condemnation of the Trust Property, or any material portion thereof, Grantor shall notify Beneficiary of the pendency of such proceedings. All amounts and proceeds payable in connection with any such condemnation shall be applied in the manner set forth in the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement.

5. Further Assurances. To the extent permitted under applicable law, and to further assure Beneficiary’s and Trustee’s rights under this Deed of Trust, Grantor agrees, within fifteen (15) business days after demand of Beneficiary or Trustee, to do any act or execute any additional documents (including, but not limited to, security agreements on any personalty included or to be included in the Trust Property and a separate assignment of each Lease in recordable form) as may be reasonably required by Beneficiary or Trustee to confirm the lien of this Deed of Trust and all other rights or benefits conferred on Beneficiary or Trustee by this Deed of Trust.

6. Beneficiary’s Right to Perform. If Grantor fails to perform any of the covenants or agreements of Grantor set forth in this Deed of Trust within the applicable notice and grace period, if any, provided for in the Indenture and the Term Loan Credit Agreement, then Beneficiary or Trustee, without waiving or releasing Grantor from any obligation or default under this Deed of Trust, may, at any time (but shall be under no obligation to) pay or perform the same, and the amount or cost thereof, with interest at the Default Rate, shall immediately be due from Grantor to Beneficiary or Trustee. To the extent that any such amounts or costs paid by Beneficiary or Trustee shall constitute payment of (i) real estate taxes and assessments, (ii) premiums on insurance policies covering the Premises, (iii) expenses incurred in upholding or enforcing the lien of this Deed of Trust, including, but not limited to, the expenses of any litigation to prosecute or defend the rights and lien created by this Deed of Trust or (iv) any amount, costs or charge to which Beneficiary or Trustee becomes subrogated, upon payment, whether under recognized principles of law or equity, or under express statutory authority, then, and in each such event, such amounts or costs, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, shall (x) be added to the Secured Obligations, (y) be secured by this Deed of Trust and (z) be a lien on the Trust Property prior to any right, title to, interest in, or claim upon the Trust Property attaching subsequent to the lien of this Deed of Trust. No payment or advance of money by Beneficiary or Trustee under this Section shall be deemed or construed to cure Grantor’s default or waive any right or remedy of Beneficiary or Trustee. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default or if Grantor fails to make any payment or to do any act as herein provided, Beneficiary may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Grantor and without releasing Grantor from any obligation hereunder, make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as Beneficiary may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Beneficiary is authorized to enter upon the Real Estate for such purposes and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Real Estate, (ii) foreclose this Deed of Trust or (iii) collect the Secured Obligations, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest at the Default Rate. All other costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law) shall bear interest at the

6

Default Rate, for the period after notice from Beneficiary that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Beneficiary. All such other costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Secured Obligations and be secured by this Deed of Trust and the other Financing Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Beneficiary therefor.

7. Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in addition to any other rights and remedies Beneficiary may have pursuant to the Financing Documents, or as provided by law, and without limitation, Beneficiary may immediately take such action, without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Grantor and in and to the Trust Property, including, but not limited to, the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such manner as Beneficiary may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Beneficiary:

(i) Beneficiary may elect to foreclose under power of sale, in which case it shall be lawful for, and the duty of, Trustee, upon receipt by Trustee of a written declaration of default and demand for sale by Beneficiary, to sell (and, in case of any default of any purchaser, resell) the Trust Property, in whole or in part or parcels (without regard to the right of any party to a marshalling of assets, Grantor hereby expressly waiving any such right), such sale in whole or in part or parcels to be determined by Trustee in his sole discretion (Grantor hereby expressly consenting thereto), at public venue to the highest bidder for cash at the door of the court house then customarily employed for that purpose in the county where the Real Estate is located, after having given such notice of hearing as to commencement of foreclosure proceedings and having obtained such findings or leave of court as may then be required by law and then having given such notice of the time and place of sale and a description of the property to be sold and by advertisement published as is provided by the applicable law then in effect, and by such other methods, if any, as Beneficiary may deem desirable or as may be required or permitted by applicable law. Trustee shall receive the proceeds of such sale and, after retaining a reasonable commission for his services, together with reasonable attorneys fees incurred by Trustee in such proceeding, apply such proceeds to the cost of sale, including, but not limited to, costs of collection, taxes, assessments, costs of recording, service fees and incidental expenditures, the amount due on the Secured Obligations and advancements and other sums expended by Beneficiary according to the provisions hereof and otherwise as required by the then existing law relating to foreclosures. If permitted by the then existing law relating to foreclosures, Trustee may sell and convey the Trust Property under the power aforesaid, although Trustee has been, may now be or may hereafter be an attorney or agent or employee of Beneficiary with respect to the indebtedness secured hereby, or the Secured Obligations or with respect to any matter or business whatsoever. If permitted by the then existing law relating to foreclosures, Trustee may adjourn from time to time any sale by him to be made under or by virtue or this Deed of Trust by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable

7

provision of law, Trustee, without further notice or publication except for any notice or publication as may be required by the then existing law, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be adjourned.

In the event a sale hereunder should be commenced by Trustee, or his substitute or successor, Beneficiary may at any time before the sale of all or any part of the Trust Property direct Trustee to cancel the scheduled sale and re-schedule the sale or to abandon the sale, whereupon Beneficiary may then institute suit for the collection of the Secured Obligations and other sums secured hereby, and for the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust lien; it is further agreed that if Beneficiary should institute a suit for the collection of the Secured Obligations and other sums secured hereby, and for a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust lien, then Beneficiary may at any time before the entry of a final judgment in said suit dismiss the same and request Trustee, his substitute or successor, to sell the Trust Property in accordance with the provisions of this Deed of Trust.

Grantor and any guarantor of the Secured Obligations shall be liable for any deficiency remaining subsequent to any sale described in this Section 7.

(ii) Beneficiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (A) institute and maintain an action of judicial foreclosure against all or any part of the Trust Property, (B) institute and maintain an action under the Indenture, the Term Loan Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document on behalf of the Secured Parties, (C) sell all or part of the Trust Property (Grantor expressly granting to Trustee the power of sale), or (D) take such other action at law or in equity for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust or any of the Financing Documents as the law may allow. Beneficiary may proceed in any such action to final judgment and execution thereon for all sums due hereunder, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate and all costs of suit, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Interest at the Default Rate shall be due on any judgment obtained by Beneficiary from the date of judgment until actual payment is made of the full amount of the judgment.

(iii) Beneficiary may personally, or by its agents, attorneys and employees and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Trust Property or any other collateral as security for the Secured Obligations, enter into and upon the Trust Property and each and every part thereof and exclude Grantor and its agents and employees therefrom without liability for trespass, damage or otherwise (Grantor hereby agreeing to surrender possession of the Trust Property to Beneficiary upon demand at any such time) and use, operate, manage, maintain and control of the Trust Property and every part thereof. Following such entry and taking of possession, Beneficiary shall be entitled, without limitation, (x) to lease all or any part or parts of the Trust Property for such periods of time and upon such conditions as Beneficiary may, in its discretion, deem proper, (y) to enforce, cancel or modify any Lease and (z) generally to execute, do and perform any other act, deed, matter or thing concerning the Trust Property as Beneficiary shall deem appropriate as fully as Grantor might do.

8

(iv) Beneficiary may, with or without entry, to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure of this Deed of Trust for the portion of the Secured Obligations then due and payable, subject to the continuing lien and security interest of this Deed of Trust for the balance of the Secured Obligations not then due, unimpaired and without loss of priority.

(v) Beneficiary may sell for cash or upon credit the Real Estate or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Grantor therein and rights of redemption thereof, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law.

(vi) Beneficiary may recover judgment on the Secured Obligations either before, during or after any proceedings for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust or the other Financing Documents.

(vii) The rights granted to Grantor under Section 12 hereof shall automatically be revoked and Beneficiary may enter into or upon the Real Estate, either personally or by its agents, nominees or attorneys, and dispossess Grantor and its agents and servants therefrom, without liability for trespass, damages or otherwise and exclude Grantor and its agents or servants wholly therefrom, and take possession of all books, records and accounts relating thereto and Grantor agrees to surrender possession of the Real Estate and of such books, records and accounts to Beneficiary upon demand, and thereupon Beneficiary may (i) use, operate, manage, control, insure, maintain, repair, restore and otherwise deal with all and every part of the Trust Property and conduct the business thereat; (ii) complete any construction on the Real Estate in such manner and form as Beneficiary deems advisable; (iii) make alterations, additions, renewals, replacements and improvements to or on the Real Estate; (iv) exercise all rights and powers of Grantor with respect to the Trust Property, whether in the name of Grantor or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, sue for, collect and receive all Rents of the Real Estate and every part thereof; (v) require Grantor to vacate and surrender possession of the Real Estate to Beneficiary or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Grantor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise; and (vi) apply the receipts from the Trust Property to the payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order, priority and proportions as Beneficiary shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion after deducting therefrom all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the aforesaid operations and all amounts necessary to pay the taxes, other charges, insurance and other expenses in connection with the Trust Property, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of Beneficiary, its counsel, agents and employees.

(b) In case of Trustee’s sale or foreclosure sale, the Real Estate and the related personal property may be sold in one parcel or in more than one parcel and Trustee is specifically empowered (without being required to do so, and in its sole and absolute discretion) to cause successive sales of portions of the Trust Property to be held.

9

(c) In the event of any breach of any of the covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Deed of Trust beyond the applicable notice and grace period provided for in the Indenture or the Term Loan Credit Agreement, if any, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be entitled to enjoin such breach and obtain specific performance of any covenant, agreement, term or condition and Beneficiary and Trustee shall have the right to invoke any equitable right or remedy as though other remedies were not provided for in this Deed of Trust.

(d) Subject to the terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and the requirements of applicable law, the proceeds or avails of foreclosure sale and all moneys received by Beneficiary pursuant to any right given or action taken under this Deed of Trust shall be applied in accordance with the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement.

8. Right of Beneficiary to Credit Sale. Upon the occurrence of any sale made under this Deed of Trust, whether made under the power of sale or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, Beneficiary may bid for and acquire the Trust Property or any part thereof. In lieu of paying cash therefor, Beneficiary may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Secured Obligations or other sums secured by this Deed of Trust the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of sale and the cost of the action and any other sums which Beneficiary is authorized to deduct under this Deed of Trust. In such event, this Deed of Trust, the Indenture, the Term Loan Credit Agreement and documents evidencing expenditures secured hereby may be presented to the person or persons conducting the sale in order that the amount so used or applied may be credited upon the Secured Obligations as having been paid.

9. Appointment of Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Beneficiary as a matter of right and without notice to Grantor, unless otherwise required by applicable law and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Trust Property or any other collateral as security for the Secured Obligations or the interest of Grantor therein and without regard for the solvency of Grantor any guarantor, indemnitor with respect to the Secured Obligations or of any person otherwise liable for the payment of the Secured Obligations, shall have the right to apply to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a receiver trustee, liquidator or conservator of the Trust Property, and Grantor hereby irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives notice of any application therefor (except as may be required by law). Any such receiver or receivers shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases and all the powers and duties of Beneficiary in case of entry as provided in this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation and to the extent permitted by law, the right to enter into leases of all or any part of the Trust Property, and shall continue as such and exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the Trust Property unless such receivership is sooner terminated.

10. Extension, Release, etc.

(a) Without affecting the lien or charge of this Deed of Trust upon any portion of the Trust Property not then or theretofore released as security for the full amount of the Secured Obligations, any Lien upon the Trust Property granted hereunder shall be automatically released to the extent the requirements of Section 5.12 of the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement have been met, and to the extent provided by Section 4.2 of the Intercreditor Agreement, all without

10

delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party. In connection therewith, at the request and sole expense of the Grantor, the Beneficiary shall execute and deliver to the Grantors all releases or other documents, including, without limitation, releases, reconveyances and termination statements, reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of such Lien. If at any time this Deed of Trust shall secure less than all of the principal amount of the Secured Obligations, it is expressly agreed that any repayments of the principal amount of the Secured Obligations shall not reduce the amount of the lien of this Deed of Trust until the lien amount shall equal the principal amount of the Secured Obligations outstanding. No recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Trust Property or upon any other property of Grantor shall affect the lien of this Deed of Trust or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Beneficiary or Trustee hereunder, and such liens, rights, powers and remedies shall continue unimpaired.

(b) If Beneficiary shall have the right to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to direct Trustee to exercise its power of sale, Grantor authorizes Beneficiary at its option to foreclose the lien created by this Deed of Trust (or direct Trustee to sell the Trust Property, as the case may be) subject to the rights of any tenants of the Trust Property. The failure to make any such tenants parties to or defendant in any such foreclosure proceeding and to foreclose their rights, or to provide notice to such tenants as required in any statutory procedure governing a sale of the Trust Property by Trustee, or to terminate such tenant’s rights in such sale will not be asserted by Grantor as a defense to any proceeding instituted by Beneficiary to collect the Secured Obligations or to foreclose the lien created by this Deed of Trust.

(c) Unless expressly provided otherwise, in the event that Beneficiary’s interest in this Deed of Trust and title to the Trust Property or any estate therein shall become vested in the same person or entity, this Deed of Trust shall not merge in such title but shall continue as a valid lien on the Trust Property for the amount secured hereby.

11. Security Agreement under Uniform Commercial Code; Fixture Filing.

(a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Deed of Trust shall constitute a “security agreement” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code (the “Code”) of the State in which the Premises are located. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then in addition to having any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, Beneficiary shall have the option of either (i) proceeding under the Code and exercising such rights and remedies as may be provided to a secured party by the Code with respect to all or any portion of the Trust Property which is personal property (including, without limitation, taking possession of and selling such property) or (ii) treating such property as real property and proceeding with respect to both the real and personal property constituting the Trust Property in accordance with Beneficiary’s rights, powers and remedies with respect to the real property (in which event the default provisions of the Code shall not apply). If Beneficiary shall elect to proceed under the Code, then ten (10) days’ notice of sale of the personal property shall be deemed reasonable notice and the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like incurred by Beneficiary shall include, but not be limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses. At Beneficiary’s request, Grantor shall assemble the personal property and make it available to Beneficiary at a place designated by Beneficiary which is reasonably convenient to both parties.

11

(b) Grantor and Beneficiary agree, to the extent permitted by law, that: (i) all of the goods described within the definition of the word “Equipment” are or are to become fixtures on the Real Estate; (ii) this Deed of Trust shall constitute a financing statement filed as a “fixture filing” within the meaning of Sections 9-334 and 9-502 of the Code covering the fixtures included within the Premises and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Premises (including said fixtures) is located; (iii) the real property to which the fixtures relate is described in Schedule A attached hereto; (iv) Grantor is the record owner of the Land; (v) the name, type of organization and jurisdiction of organization of the debtor for purposes of this financing statement are the name, type of organization and jurisdiction of organization of Grantor set forth in the first paragraph on the first page of this Deed of Trust, and the name of the secured party for purposes of this financing statement is the name of Beneficiary set forth in the first paragraph on the first page of this Deed of Trust; (vi) Grantor’s state organizational identification number is set forth in the first paragraph on the first page of this Deed of Trust; and (vii) the mailing addresses of Grantor and Beneficiary are as set forth in the first paragraph on the first page of this Deed of Trust.

12. Assignment of Rents. Grantor hereby assigns to Beneficiary the Rents as further security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, and Grantor grants to Trustee and Beneficiary the right to enter the Trust Property for the purpose of collecting the same and to let the Trust Property or any part thereof, and to apply the Rents on account of the Secured Obligations. The foregoing assignment and grant is present and absolute and shall continue in effect until the Secured Obligations are paid and performed in full, but Beneficiary and Trustee hereby waive the right to enter the Trust Property for the purpose of collecting the Rents and Grantor shall be entitled to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents until the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default; such right of Grantor to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents may be revoked by Beneficiary upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default under this Deed of Trust by giving not less than five (5) days’ written notice of such revocation to Grantor; in the event such notice is given, Grantor shall pay over to Beneficiary, or to any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, any lease security deposits, and shall pay monthly in advance to Beneficiary, or to any such receiver, the fair and reasonable rental value as determined by Beneficiary for the use and occupancy of the Trust Property or of such part thereof as may be in the possession of Grantor or any affiliate of Grantor, and upon default in any such payment, Grantor and any such affiliate will vacate and surrender the possession of the Trust Property to Beneficiary or to such receiver, and in default thereof, may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.

13. Additional Rights. The holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust on the Trust Property shall have no right to terminate any Lease whether or not such Lease is subordinate to this Deed of Trust nor shall Grantor consent to any holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust joining any tenant under any Lease in any trustee’s sale or action to foreclose the lien or modify, interfere with, disturb or terminate the rights of any tenant under any Lease. By recordation of this Deed of Trust, all subordinate lienholders and the trustees and beneficiaries under subordinate deeds of trust are subject to and notified of this provision, and any action taken by any such lienholder or trustee or beneficiary contrary to this provision shall be null and void. Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion and without regard to the adequacy of its security under

12

this Deed of Trust, apply all or any part of any amounts on deposit with Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust against all or any part of the Secured Obligations. Any such application shall not be construed to cure or waive any Event of Default or invalidate any act taken by Beneficiary on account of such Event of Default.

14. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be given in accordance with the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement.

15. Modifications. This Deed of Trust may not be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in writing signed by the Beneficiary and in compliance with the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. Any agreement made by Grantor and Beneficiary after the date of this Deed of Trust relating to this Deed of Trust shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any intervening or subordinate deed of trust, lien or encumbrance. Trustee’s execution of any written agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary shall not be required for the effectiveness thereof as between Grantor and Beneficiary.

16. Partial Invalidity. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Deed of Trust shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but each shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Deed of Trust or in any provisions of any of the Financing Documents, the obligations of Grantor and of any other obligor under the any of the Financing Documents shall be subject to the limitation that Beneficiary shall not charge, take or receive, nor shall Grantor or any other obligor be obligated to pay to Beneficiary, any amounts constituting interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by Beneficiary.

17. Grantor’s Waiver of Rights. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor waives the benefit of all laws now existing or that may subsequently be enacted providing for (i) any appraisement before sale of any portion of the Trust Property, (ii) any extension of the time for the enforcement of the collection of the Secured Obligations or the creation or extension of a period of redemption from any sale made in collecting such debt and (iii) exemption of the Trust Property from attachment, levy or sale under execution or exemption from civil process. To the fullest extent Grantor may do so, Grantor agrees that Grantor will not at any time insist upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, exemption, extension or redemption, or requiring foreclosure of this Deed of Trust before exercising any other remedy granted hereunder and Grantor, for Grantor and its successors and assigns, and for any and all persons ever claiming any interest in the Trust Property, to the extent permitted by law and except as otherwise provided herein or in the other Financing Documents, hereby waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, notice of election to mature or declare due the whole of the secured indebtedness and marshalling in the event of exercise by Trustee or Beneficiary of the foreclosure rights, power of sale or other rights hereby created.

18. Remedies Not Exclusive. Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to enforce payment and performance of the Secured Obligations and to exercise all rights and powers under

13

this Deed of Trust or under any of the other Financing Documents or other agreement or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding some or all of the Secured Obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this Deed of Trust nor its enforcement, shall prejudice or in any manner affect Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary and Trustee, it being agreed that Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to enforce this Deed of Trust and any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary or Trustee in such order and manner as Beneficiary or Trustee may determine in its absolute discretion. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Trustee or Beneficiary is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Financing Documents to Beneficiary or Trustee or to which either may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Beneficiary or Trustee as the case may be. In no event shall Beneficiary or Trustee, in the exercise of the remedies provided in this Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, in connection with the assignment of Rents to Beneficiary, or the appointment of a receiver and the entry of such receiver on to all or any part of the Trust Property), be deemed a “mortgagee in possession,” and neither Beneficiary nor Trustee shall in any way be made liable for any act, either of commission or omission, in connection with the exercise of such remedies except gross negligence or willful misconduct after Beneficiary takes possession or title.

19. Multiple Security. (a) If (i) the Premises shall consist of one or more parcels, whether or not contiguous and whether or not located in the same county, or (ii) in addition to this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary shall now or hereafter hold or be the beneficiary of one or more additional mortgages, liens, deeds of trust or other security (directly or indirectly) for the Secured Obligations upon other property in the State in which the Premises are located (whether or not such property is owned by Grantor or by others) or (iii) both the circumstances described in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be true, then to the fullest extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, commence or consolidate in a single trustee’s sale or foreclosure action all trustee’s sale or foreclosure proceedings against all such collateral securing the Secured Obligations (including the Trust Property), which action may be brought or consolidated in the court of, or sale conducted in, any county in which any of such collateral is located. Grantor acknowledges that the right to maintain a consolidated trustee’s sale or foreclosure action is a specific inducement to Beneficiary to extend the indebtedness evidenced by the Indenture, the Term Loan Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document, and Grantor expressly and irrevocably waives any objections to the commencement or consolidation of the foreclosure proceedings in a single action and any objections to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens which it may now or hereafter have.

(b) Grantor agrees that if Trustee or Beneficiary shall be prosecuting one or more foreclosure or other proceedings against a portion of the Trust Property or against any collateral other than the Trust Property, which collateral directly or indirectly secures the Secured Obligations, or if Beneficiary shall have obtained a judgment of foreclosure and sale or similar judgment against such collateral (or, in the case of a trustee’s sale, shall have met the statutory

14

requirements therefor with respect to such collateral), then, whether or not such proceedings are being maintained or judgments were obtained in or outside the State in which the Premises are located, Beneficiary may commence or continue any trustee’s sale or foreclosure proceedings and exercise its other remedies granted in this Deed of Trust against all or any part of the Trust Property and Grantor waives any objections to the commencement or continuation of a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or exercise of any other remedies hereunder based on such other proceedings or judgments, and waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate either any action under this Deed of Trust or such other proceedings on such basis. Neither the commencement nor continuation of proceedings to sell the Trust Property in a trustee’s sale, to foreclose this Deed of Trust nor the exercise of any other rights hereunder nor the recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary or the occurrence of any sale by Trustee in any such proceedings shall prejudice, limit or preclude Beneficiary’s right to commence or continue one or more trustee’s sales, foreclosure or other proceedings or obtain a judgment against (or, in the case of a trustee’s sale, to meet the statutory requirements for, any such sale of) any other collateral (either in or outside the State in which the Premises are located) which directly or indirectly secures the Secured Obligations, and Grantor expressly waives any objections to the commencement of, continuation of, or entry of a judgment in such other sales or proceedings or exercise of any remedies in such sales or proceedings based upon any action or judgment connected to this Deed of Trust, and Grantor also waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate either such other sales or proceedings or any sale or action under this Deed of Trust on such basis.

(c) It is expressly understood and agreed that to the fullest extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, cause the sale of all collateral which is the subject of a single trustee’s sale or foreclosure action at either a single sale or at multiple sales conducted simultaneously and take such other measures as are appropriate in order to effect the agreement of the parties to dispose of and administer all collateral securing the Secured Obligations (directly or indirectly) in the most economical and least time-consuming manner.

20. Successors and Assigns. All covenants of Grantor contained in this Deed of Trust are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Beneficiary and Trustee and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person or entity shall have standing to require compliance with such covenants or be deemed, under any circumstances, to be a beneficiary of such covenants, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Beneficiary or Trustee at any time if in the sole discretion of either of them such waiver is deemed advisable. All such covenants of Grantor shall run with the land and bind Grantor, the successors and assigns of Grantor (and each of them) and all subsequent owners, encumbrancers and tenants of the Trust Property, and shall inure to the benefit of Beneficiary, Trustee and their respective successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any successor to Trustee appointed by Beneficiary shall succeed to all rights of Trustee as if such successor had been originally named as Trustee hereunder. The word “Grantor” shall be construed as if it read “Grantors” whenever the sense of this Deed of Trust so requires and if there shall be more than one Grantor, the obligations of Grantors shall be joint and several.

21. No Waivers, etc. Any failure by Beneficiary to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust shall not be deemed to be a

15

waiver of any of the terms and provisions hereof, and Beneficiary or Trustee, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any and all of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust to be performed by Grantor.

22. Governing Law, etc. This Deed of Trust shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State in which the Premises are located, and applicable United States Federal Law.

23. Certain Definitions. Unless the context clearly indicates a contrary intent or unless otherwise specifically provided herein, words used in this Deed of Trust shall be used interchangeably in singular or plural form and the word “Grantor” shall mean “each Grantor or any subsequent owner or owners of the Trust Property or any part thereof or interest therein,” the word “Beneficiary” shall mean “Beneficiary or any successor “collateral agent” under the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement,” the word “Trustee” shall mean “Trustee and any successor hereunder,” the word “person” shall include any individual, corporation, partnership, trust, unincorporated association, government, governmental authority, or other entity, and the words “Trust Property” shall include any portion of the Trust Property or interest therein.

24. Last Dollars Secured; Priority. To the extent that this Deed of Trust secures only a portion of the indebtedness owing or which may become owing by Grantor, the parties agree that any payments or repayments of such indebtedness shall be and be deemed to be applied first to the portion of the indebtedness that is not secured hereby, it being the parties’ intent that the portion of the indebtedness last remaining unpaid shall be secured hereby.

25. Trustee’s Powers (and Liabilities). (a) Beneficiary may substitute, for any reason whatsoever, a successor trustee or successor trustees for Trustee hereunder from time to time by an instrument in writing in any manner now or hereafter provided by law. Such right of substitution may be exercised at any time and more than once until the Secured Obligations and other sums hereby secured have been paid in full and the Indenture and the Term Loan Credit Agreement have terminated pursuant to its express terms or until the Trust Property is sold hereunder. Such writing, upon recordation, shall be conclusive proof of proper substitution of each such successor Trustee or Trustees, who shall thereupon and without conveyance from the predecessor Trustee, succeed to all its title, estate, rights, powers and duties hereunder. The making of oath and giving bond by Trustee or any successor Trustee is hereby expressly waived by Grantor. The Trustee may sell and convey said property under the power set out herein, to any person, firm or corporation, although said Trustee has been, may now be or may hereafter be attorney for or agent of Beneficiary.

(b) At any time or from time to time upon Beneficiary’s request, without liability therefor, and without notice, upon the written request of Beneficiary and presentation of this Deed of Trust for endorsement, without affecting the liability of any person for the payment of the Secured Obligations secured hereby, and without affecting the lien created by the Deed of Trust upon the Trust Property for the full amount of all amounts secured hereby, Trustee may (i)

16

release all or any part of the Trust Property, (ii) consent to the making of any map or plat thereof, (iii) join in granting any easement thereon or in creating any covenants or conditions restricting use or occupancy thereof, or (iv) join in any extension agreement or in any agreement subordinating the lien or charge hereof.

(c) If more than one (1) Trustee is appointed hereunder, either Trustee may act in the execution of this Deed of Trust, the authority and power of any Trustee so acting shall be as full and complete as if the powers and authority granted to Trustees herein jointly had been granted to such Trustee alone, and either Trustee may act by agent or attorney. It is not necessary for either Trustee to be personally present at any foreclosure sale.

(d) Except for gross negligence or willful misconduct, Trustee shall not be liable for any act or omission or error of judgment. Trustee may rely on any document believed by it in good faith to be genuine. All money received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust, and Trustee shall not be liable for interest thereon. Grantor shall indemnify Trustee against all liability and expenses that it may incur in the performance of its duties hereunder except for gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(e) Trustee hereby accepts its duties and obligations under this Deed of Trust and the Financing Documents when this Deed of Trust, duly executed and acknowledged, is made a public record as provided by law.

26. The Collateral Agent. U.S. Bank National Association has been appointed Beneficiary for the Secured Parties hereunder pursuant to Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties to this Deed of Trust that any authority conferred upon Beneficiary hereunder is subject to the terms of the delegation of authority made by the Secured Parties to Beneficiary pursuant to the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement, and that Beneficiary has agreed to act (and any successor Beneficiary shall act) as such hereunder only on the express conditions contained in the Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement. Any successor Collateral Agent appointed pursuant to Term Debt Intercreditor Agreement shall be entitled to all the rights, interests and benefits of Beneficiary hereunder.

27. Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Deed of Trust, the liens, security interests and rights granted pursuant to this Deed of Trust or any other Financing Document shall be as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of (and the exercise of any right or remedy by Beneficiary hereunder or thereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of), the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Deed of Trust or any other Financing Document and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement shall control, and no right, power, or remedy granted to Beneficiary hereunder or under any other Financing Document shall be exercised by Beneficiary, and no direction shall be given by Beneficiary in contravention of the Intercreditor Agreement.

28. State Specific Provisions.

(a) Conflicts. To the extent of any inconsistency between this Section and the other provisions of this Deed of Trust, the terms and provisions of this Section shall govern and control.

17

(b) Future Secured Obligations. This Deed of Trust is made and executed to comply with the provisions of N.C.G.S. Section 45-67 et seq., and shall secure the payment of all present and future Secured Obligations which may now or may hereafter be owing, including, without limitation, any future loans and advances and re-advances made pursuant to the Indenture and the Term Loan Credit Agreement up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time of ONE BILLION FIVE HUNDRED MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,500,000,000). The amount of present Secured Obligations secured hereby is in the sum of [EIGHT HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($850,000,000)] as of the date hereof, and the maximum principal amount of all present and future Secured Obligations secured hereby at any one time is $1,500,000,000, plus interest, costs and advances made by Beneficiary to protect or preserve the Premises or the lien hereof on the Premises, or for taxes, assessments or insurance premiums as herein provided. The time period within which such future Secured Obligations may be incurred is the period between the date hereof and the date fifteen (15) years from the date hereof. Pursuant to N.C.G.S. Section 45-68(2), Grantor and Beneficiary agree that at the time each Obligation is incurred, it shall not be necessary for each Obligation to be evidenced by any written instrument or notation signed by Grantor and stipulating that such Obligation is secured by this Deed of Trust.

(c) Attorneys’ Fees. All references to “attorneys’ fees” herein and in the other Financing Documents shall be deemed to be “reasonable attorneys’ fees,” and as used herein, and in any other Financing Documents to the extent North Carolina law applies thereto, the phrase “reasonable attorneys’ fees” and similar phrases shall mean attorneys’ fees at standard hourly rates actually incurred, without giving effect to the statutory presumption set forth in Section 6-21.2 of the North Carolina General Statutes.
