(iv)    each Series of Additional Notes issued under this Agreement shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit 1 to Exhibit S with such variations, omissions and insertions as are necessary or permitted hereunder;
 
(v)     the minimum principal amount of any Note issued under a Supplement shall be U.S.$100,000, except as may be necessary to evidence the outstanding amount of any Note originally issued in a denomination of U.S.$100,000 or more;

Section 8.2.  Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount.  The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes, an amount not less than ten percent (10%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at one hundred percent (100%) of the aggregate principal amount so prepaid, and the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount.  The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment.  Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.4), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall also be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation.  Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.

No prepayment of the Notes pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall affect the obligation of the Company to pay Additional Payments in respect of any payment made on or prior to the date of such prepayment.  For purposes of this Section 8.3, any holder of more than one affected Note may act separately with respect to each affected Note so held (with the effect that a holder of more than one affected Note may accept such offer with respect to one or more affected Notes so held and reject such offer with respect to one or more other affected Notes so held).
 
The Company may not offer to prepay or prepay Notes pursuant to this Section 8.3 (a) if a Default or Event of Default then exists, (b) until the Company shall have taken commercially reasonable steps to mitigate the requirement to make the related Additional Payments or (c) if the obligation to make such Additional Payments directly results or resulted from actions taken by the Parent Guarantor, the Company or any Subsidiary (other than actions required to be taken under applicable law), and any Tax Prepayment Notice given pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall certify to the foregoing and describe such mitigation steps, if any.

Section 8.4.  Allocation of Partial Prepayments.  In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.1 or 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.  All partial prepayments made pursuant to Section 8.3 or Section 8.8 shall be applied only to the Notes of the holders who have elected to participate in such prepayment.  All regularly scheduled partial prepayments made with respect to any Series of Additional Notes pursuant to any Supplement shall be allocated as provided therein.
 
Section 8.5.  Maturity; Surrender, Etc.  In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount or Modified Make-Whole Amount, if any.  From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount or Modified Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue.  Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.
 
Section 8.6.  Purchase of Notes.  Neither the Parent Guarantor nor the Company will, nor will it permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes or any part or portion except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase all or any portion of the outstanding Notes made by the Company or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions.  Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least 10 Business Days.  If the holders of more than 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least 5 Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer.  The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.
 
“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (x) the Applicable Percentage plus (y) the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date.  In the case of each determination under clause (i) or clause (ii), as the case may be, of the preceding paragraph, such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life.  The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.3 or 12.1.
 
“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

Section 12.
Remedies on Default, Etc.
 
Section 12.1. Acceleration.  (a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Parent Guarantor or the Company described in Section 11(g), (h) or (i) (other than an Event of Default described in clause (i) of Section 11(g) or described in clause (vi) of Section 11(g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of Section 11(g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable.
 
(b)   If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Holders may at any time at their option, by notice or notices to the Parent Guarantor or the Company, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.
 
(c)   If any Event of Default described in Section 11(a) or (b) has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Parent Guarantor or the Company, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.
 
Upon any Note becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Note will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Note, plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, without limitation, interest accrued thereon at the Default Rate) and (y) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived.  The Parent Guarantor and the Company acknowledge, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Parent Guarantor or the Company (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.
 
Section 12.2. Other Remedies.  If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

Section 12.3. Rescission.  At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or (c), the Required Holders, by written notice to the Parent Guarantor or the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount or Modified Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount or Modified Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) neither the Company nor any other Person shall have paid any amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 19, and (d) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes.  No rescission and annulment under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
 
Section 12.4. No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc.  No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies.  No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.  Without limiting the obligations of the Parent Guarantor or the Company under Section 17, the Parent Guarantor and the Company agree, jointly and severally, to pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.
 
Section 13.
Tax Indemnification.
 
All payments whatsoever under this Agreement and the Notes will be made by the Parent Guarantor and the Company in lawful currency of the United States of America free and clear of, and without liability for withholding or deduction for or on account of, any present or future Taxes of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction other than the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such jurisdiction) (each such jurisdiction hereinafter a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Tax is compelled by law.
 
If any deduction or withholding for any Tax of a Taxing Jurisdiction shall at any time be required in respect of any amounts to be paid by the Parent Guarantor or the Company under this Agreement or the Notes, the Parent Guarantor or the Company will pay to the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction the full amount required to be withheld, deducted or otherwise paid before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon and pay to each holder of a Note such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts paid to such holder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Notes after such deduction, withholding or payment (including, without limitation, any required deduction or withholding of Tax on or with respect to such additional amount), shall be not less than the amounts then due and payable to such holder under the terms of this Agreement or the Notes before the assessment of such Tax, provided that no payment of any additional amounts shall be required to be made for or on account of:
 
 
-45-

 
 
(a)     any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between such holder (or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member of, shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such holder, if such holder is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation or any Person other than the holder to whom the Notes or any amount payable thereon is attributable for the purposes of such Tax) and the Taxing Jurisdiction, other than the mere holding of the relevant Note or the receipt of payments thereunder or in respect thereof, including, without limitation, such holder (or such other Person described in the above parenthetical) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof, or being or having been present or engaged in trade or business therein or having or having had an establishment, office, fixed base or branch therein, provided that this exclusion shall not apply with respect to a Tax that would not have been imposed but for the Parent Guarantor or the Company, after the date of the Closing, opening an office in, moving an office to, reincorporating in, or changing the Taxing Jurisdiction from or through which payments on account of this Agreement or the Notes are made to, the Taxing Jurisdiction imposing the relevant Tax;
 
(b)     any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the delay or failure by such holder (following a written request by the Parent Guarantor or the Company) in the filing with the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of Forms (as defined below) that are required to be filed by such holder to avoid or reduce such Taxes (including for such purpose any refilings or renewals of filings that may from time to time be required by the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction), provided that the filing of such Forms would not (in such holder’s reasonable judgment) impose any unreasonable burden (in time, resources or otherwise) on such holder or result in any confidential or proprietary income tax return information being revealed, either directly or indirectly, to any Person and such delay or failure could have been lawfully avoided by such holder, and provided further that such holder shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of this clause (b) upon the good faith completion and submission of such Forms (including refilings or renewals of filings) as may be specified in a written request of the Parent Guarantor or the Company no later than 60 days after receipt by such holder of such written request (accompanied by copies of such Forms and related instructions, if any, all in the English language or with an English translation thereof); or
 
(c)     any combination of clauses (a) and (b) above;
 
and provided further that in no event shall the Parent Guarantor or the Company be obligated to pay such additional amounts to any holder of a Note (i) not resident in the United States of America or any other jurisdiction in which an original Purchaser is resident for tax purposes on the date of the Closing in excess of the amounts that the Parent Guarantor or the Company would be obligated to pay if such holder had been a resident of the United States of America or such other jurisdiction, as applicable, for purposes of, and eligible for the benefits of, any double taxation treaty from time to time in effect between the United States of America or such other jurisdiction and the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or (ii) to any holder of a Note registered in the name of a nominee if under the law of the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (or the current regulatory interpretation of such law) securities held in the name of a nominee do not qualify for an exemption from the relevant Tax and the Parent Guarantor and the Company shall have given timely notice of such law or interpretation to such holder.
 
 
-46-

 
 
By acceptance of any Note, the holder of such Note agrees, subject to the limitations of clause (b) above, that it will from time to time with reasonable promptness (x) duly complete and deliver to or as reasonably directed by the Parent Guarantor or the Company all such forms, certificates, documents and returns provided to such holder by the Parent Guarantor or the Company (collectively, together with instructions for completing the same, “Forms”) required to be filed by or on behalf of such holder in order to avoid or reduce any such Tax pursuant to the provisions of an applicable statute, regulation or administrative practice of the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or of a tax treaty between the jurisdiction in which such holder is resident for tax purposes and such Taxing Jurisdiction and (y) provide the Parent Guarantor or the Company with such information with respect to such holder as the Parent Guarantor or the Company may reasonably request in order to complete any such Forms, provided that nothing in this Section 13 shall require any holder to provide information with respect to any such Form or otherwise if in the opinion of such holder such Form or disclosure of information would involve the disclosure of tax return or other information that is confidential or proprietary to such holder, and provided further that each such holder shall be deemed to have complied with its obligation under this paragraph with respect to any Form if such Form shall have been duly completed and delivered by such holder to the Parent Guarantor or the Company or mailed to the appropriate taxing authority, whichever is applicable, within 60 days following a written request of the Parent Guarantor or the Company (which request shall be accompanied by copies of such Form and English translations of any such Form not in the English language) and, in the case of a transfer of any Note, at least 90 days prior to the relevant interest payment date.
 
On or before the date of the Closing the Company will furnish each Purchaser with copies of the appropriate Form (and English translation if required as aforesaid) currently required to be filed in Barbados pursuant to clause (b) of the first paragraph of this Section 13, if any, and in connection with the transfer of any Note the Parent Guarantor or the Company will furnish the transferee of such Note with copies of any Form and English translation then required.
 
If any payment is made by the Parent Guarantor or the Company to or for the account of the holder of any Note after deduction for or on account of any Taxes, and increased payments are made by the Parent Guarantor or the Company pursuant to this Section 13, then, if such holder in its reasonable discretion determines that it has received or been granted a refund of such Taxes, such holder shall, to the extent that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such refund, reimburse to the Parent Guarantor or the Company such amount as such holder shall, in its reasonable discretion, determine to be attributable to the relevant Taxes or deduction or withholding.  Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of the holder of any Note to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit and, in particular, no holder of any Note shall be under any obligation to claim relief from its corporate profits or similar tax liability in respect of such Tax in priority to any other claims, reliefs, credits or deductions available to it or (other than as set forth in clause (b) above) oblige any holder of any Note to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof.
 
 
-47-

 
 
The Parent Guarantor or the Company will furnish the holders of Notes, promptly and in any event within 60 days after the date of any payment by the Parent Guarantor or the Company of any Tax in respect of any amounts paid under this Agreement or the Notes, the original tax receipt issued by the relevant taxation or other authorities involved for all amounts paid as aforesaid (or if such original tax receipt is not available or must legally be kept in the possession of the Parent Guarantor or the Company, a duly certified copy of the original tax receipt or any other reasonably satisfactory evidence of payment), together with such other documentary evidence with respect to such payments as may be reasonably requested from time to time by any holder of a Note.
 
If the Parent Guarantor or the Company is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of the taxation or other authority of any relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, to make any deduction or withholding of any Tax in respect of which the Parent Guarantor or the Company would be required to pay any additional amount under this Section 13, but for any reason does not make such deduction or withholding with the result that a liability in respect of such Tax is assessed directly against the holder of any Note, and such holder pays such liability, then the Parent Guarantor or the Company will promptly reimburse such holder for such payment (including any related interest or penalties to the extent such interest or penalties arise by virtue of a default or delay by the Parent Guarantor or the Company) upon demand by such holder accompanied by an official receipt (or a duly certified copy thereof) issued by the taxation or other authority of the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction.
 
If the Parent Guarantor or the Company makes payment to or for the account of any holder of a Note and such holder is entitled to a refund of the Tax to which such payment is attributable upon the making of a filing (other than a Form described above), then such holder shall, as soon as practicable after receiving written request from the Parent Guarantor or the Company (which shall specify in reasonable detail and supply the refund forms to be filed) use reasonable efforts to complete and deliver such refund forms to or as directed by the Parent Guarantor or the Company, subject, however, to the same limitations with respect to Forms as are set forth above.
 
The obligations of the Parent Guarantor and the Company under this Section 13 shall survive the payment or transfer of any Note and the provisions of this Section 13 shall also apply to successive transferees of the Notes.

(b)       The Parent Guarantor hereby agrees that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify the holders from time to time of the Notes immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability they incur as a result of any amount referred to in sub-paragraph (a) above not being paid which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable on the date when it would have been due.  The amount payable by the Parent Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Section 14.1 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.  The Parent Guarantor further indemnifies each holder from time to time of the Notes against any liability or loss arising, and any costs such holder suffers or incurs, (i) if such holder is obliged, or agrees, to pay an amount to a trustee in bankruptcy or liquidator (of an insolvent person) in connection with a payment by the Parent Guarantor or the Company or (ii) if the Parent Guarantor defaults under this guarantee and indemnity.  The Parent Guarantor agrees to pay amounts due under this indemnity on demand from such holder.

provided that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this paragraph that the obligations of the Parent Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except by the payment to the holders thereof of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount or Modified Make-Whole Amount (if any) and any additional amounts under Section 13 and interest on the Notes, and of all other sums due and owing to the holders of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement, and then only to the extent of such payments.  Without limiting any of the other terms or provisions hereof, it is understood and agreed that in order to hold the Parent Guarantor liable hereunder, there shall be no obligation on the part of any holder of any Note to resort, in any manner or form, for payment, to the Company or to any other Person or to the properties or estates of any of the foregoing.  All rights of the holder of any Note pursuant thereto or to this Agreement may be transferred or assigned at any time or from time to time and shall be considered to be transferred or assigned upon the transfer of such Note, whether with or without the consent of or notice to the Parent Guarantor or the Company.  Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Company shall default under the terms of the Notes or this Agreement and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Company under the Notes or this Agreement, the obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Section 14 shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent default.
 
Section 14.3. Subrogation.  To the extent of any payments made under this Agreement, the Parent Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder of the Notes receiving such payments, but the Parent Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of subrogation shall be subordinate in right of payment to the rights of any holders of the Notes for which full payment has not been made or provided for and, to that end, the Parent Guarantor agrees not to claim or enforce any such right of subrogation or any right of set-off or any other right which may arise on account of any payment made by the Parent Guarantor in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any right of reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any holder of the Notes against the Parent Guarantor or the Company, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statue or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Parent Guarantor or the Company, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Notes owned by Persons other than the Parent Guarantor or any of its Affiliates and all other sums due or payable under this Agreement have been fully paid and discharged or payment therefor has been provided.  If any amount shall be paid to the Parent Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to the indefeasible cash payment in full in Dollars of the Notes and all other amounts payable under this Agreement, such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Notes and shall forthwith be paid to the holders of the Notes to be credited and applied to the amounts due or to become due with respect to the Notes and all other amounts payable under this Agreement, whether matured or unmatured.
 
Section 14.4. Preference.  The Parent Guarantor agrees that to the extent the Company or any other Person makes any payment on the Notes, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered, rescinded or is required to be retained by or repaid to a trustee, liquidator, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy code, common law or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect with respect to the Parent Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, as if said payment had not been made.  The liability of the Parent Guarantor hereunder shall not be reduced or discharged, in whole or in part, by any payment to any holder of the Notes from any source that is thereafter paid, returned or refunded in whole or in part by reason of the assertion of a claim of any kind relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of contract, breach of warranty, preference, illegality, invalidity or fraud asserted by any account debtor or by any other Person.
 
 
-53-

 
 
Section 14.5. Marshalling.  None of the holders of the Notes shall be under any obligation (a) to marshal any assets in favor of the Parent Guarantor or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Company under or in respect of the Notes or the obligation of the Parent Guarantor hereunder or (b) to pursue any other remedy that the Parent Guarantor may or may not be able to pursue itself and that may lessen the Parent Guarantor’s burden or any right to which the Parent Guarantor hereby expressly waives.  The obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Agreement rank pari passu in right of payment with all other Indebtedness (actual or contingent) of the Parent Guarantor which is not secured or the subject of any statutory trust or preference or which is not expressly subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness.
 
Section 15.

(b)   Without limiting the foregoing, each Purchaser and each subsequent holder of any Note severely agrees that it will not, directly or indirectly, resell any Notes purchased by it to a Person which is, to its knowledge, a Competitor (it being understood that such Purchaser shall advise any broker or intermediary acting on its behalf that such resale to a Competitor is limited hereby).  The Company shall not be required to recognize any sale or other transfer of a Note to a Competitor and no such transfer shall confer any rights hereunder upon such transferee.
 
Section 15.3. Replacement of Notes.  Upon receipt by the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 20(iv)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and
 
(a)     in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least U.S. $100,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or
 
(b)     in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,
 
within ten Business Days thereafter the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.
 
Section 16.

-5-

 
 
Section 4.1.     Promissory Notes and Tangible Chattel Paper.  If either Credit Party shall, now or at any time hereafter, hold or acquire any promissory note relating to the Collateral, such Credit Party shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Security Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Security Agent may from time to time specify.  If either Credit Party shall, now or at any time hereafter, hold or acquire tangible chattel paper in respect of the Collateral, the Security Agent may request that such tangible chattel paper be stamped according to Section 7 of the Intercreditor Agreement to indicate the security interest granted to the Security Agent hereunder.  In addition, for purposes of Section 7 of the Intercreditor Agreement, the term “Lease Custodial Transfer” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the occurrence each of the following events (simultaneously): (x) an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, and (y) the requisite parties under the Intercreditor Agreement shall have determined that a “Lease Custodial Transfer” shall occur under the Intercreditor Agreement.  If a Lease Custodial Transfer shall occur under the immediately preceding sentence, the Security Agent shall promptly notify Union Bank, N.A., as Collateral Agent under the Intercreditor Agreement (or any successor thereto as Collateral Agent under the Intercreditor Agreement), of the occurrence thereof, in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 12.8 of the Intercreditor Agreement.
 
Section 4.2.     Deposit Accounts. Each Credit Party shall comply with its obligations under Section 9.13 of the Note Purchase Agreement and any comparable provision under any other Credit Agreement.  The Security Agent agrees with each Credit Party that the Security Agent shall not instruct the Collateral Agent to deliver a “Shifting Control Notice” (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
 
Section 4.3.     Investment Property.  If any Credit Party shall, now or at any time hereafter, hold or acquire any certificated securities in respect of or which constitute Collateral, such Credit Party shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Security Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Security Agent may from time to time specify.  If any such securities now or hereafter acquired by any Credit Party are uncertificated and are issued to such Credit Party or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such Credit Party shall immediately notify the Security Agent thereof and, at the Security Agent’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Security Agent, either (a) cause the issuer to agree to comply without further consent of such Credit Party or such nominee, at any time with instructions from the Security Agent as to such securities, or (b) arrange for the Security Agent to become the registered owner of the securities.  If any securities in respect of or which constitute Collateral, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other investment property now or hereafter acquired by any Credit Party are held by any Credit Party or its nominee through a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, such Credit Party shall immediately notify the Security Agent thereof and, at the Security Agent’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Security Agent, either (i) cause such securities intermediary or (as the case may be) commodity intermediary to agree to comply, in each case without further consent of such Credit Party or such nominee, at any time with entitlement orders or other instructions from the Security Agent to such securities intermediary as to such securities or other investment property, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account of any commodity contract as directed by the Security Agent to such commodity intermediary, or (ii) in the case of financial assets or other investment property held through a securities intermediary, arrange for the Security Agent to become the entitlement holder with respect to such investment property, with such Credit Party being permitted, only with the consent of the Security Agent, to exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal with such investment property.  The Security Agent agrees with each Credit Party that the Security Agent shall not give any such entitlement orders or instructions or directions to any such issuer, securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Credit Party, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights not otherwise permitted by the Note Documents or any other Credit Agreement, would occur.  The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any financial assets credited to a securities account for which the Security Agent is the securities intermediary.
 
 
-6-

 
 
Section 4.4.     Collateral in the Possession of a Bailee. If any Collateral is, now or at any time hereafter, in the possession of a bailee, the Credit Parties shall promptly notify the Security Agent thereof and, at the Security Agent’s request and option, shall promptly obtain an acknowledgement from the bailee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Security Agent, that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of the Security Agent and such bailee’s agreement to comply, without further consent of the Credit Parties, at any time with instructions of the Security Agent as to such Collateral.  The Security Agent agrees with each Credit Party that the Security Agent shall not give any such instructions unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Credit Party with respect to the bailee.
 
Section 4.5.     Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records.  If any Credit Party, now or at any time hereafter, holds or acquires an interest in any Collateral which is in the form of electronic chattel paper, any electronic document or any “transferable record,” as that term is defined in Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, in each case to the extent constituting Collateral (collectively, “Electronic Collateral”), such Credit Party shall promptly notify the Security Agent thereof and, at the request and option of the Security Agent, shall take such action as the Security Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Security Agent control, under §9-105 of the UCC of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction, of such Electronic Collateral, control, under §7-106 of the UCC of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction, of such electronic chattel paper or control under Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record; provided that Security Agent’s rights to such Electronic Collateral shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.  The Security Agent agrees with each Credit Party that the Security Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Security Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Security Agent’s loss of control, for such Credit Party to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper, electronic document or transferable record permitted under UCC §9-105, UCC §7-106, or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to make without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Credit Party with respect to such Electronic Collateral.  The provisions of this Section 4.5 relating to electronic documents and “control” under UCC §7-106 apply in the event that the 2003 revisions to Article 7, with amendments to Article 9, of the UCC, in substantially the form approved by the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws, are now or hereafter adopted and become effective in the State or in any other relevant jurisdiction.

Section 4.6.     Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Credit Party is, now or at any time hereafter, a beneficiary under a letter of credit constituting Collateral, such Credit Party shall promptly notify the Security Agent thereof and, at the request and option of the Security Agent, and so long as such arrangements would not expressly violate the terms of any agreement or instrument evidencing indebtedness to which such Credit Party is or becomes a party, such Credit Party shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Security Agent, either (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Security Agent of the proceeds of the letter of credit or (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the Security Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit.

Section 15.
Rights and Remedies.
 
(a)     If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Security Agent, without any other notice to or demand upon any Credit Party and whether or not the Obligations are due, shall have in any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, but subject at all times to the Intercreditor Agreement, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction and any additional rights and remedies as may be provided to a secured party in any jurisdiction in which Collateral is located, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose the Security Agent may, so far as any Credit Party can give authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the same therefrom (subject, in the case of Collateral consisting of leased Equipment, to the lessee’s right of quiet enjoyment).  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Security Agent may in its discretion require any Credit Party to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or locations within the jurisdiction(s) of such Credit Party’s principal office(s) or at such other locations as the Security Agent may reasonably designate.  Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Security Agent shall give to each Credit Party at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made.  Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges that ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice.  In addition, each Credit Party waives any and all rights that it may have to a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Security Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, its right following an Event of Default to take immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights and remedies with respect thereto.  The Security Agent agrees that it will give notice to each Credit Party and the Secured Parties of any enforcement action taken by it pursuant to this Section 15 promptly after commencing such action.

Section 16.2. Enforcement.  (a) The Creditors agree among themselves and for their own benefit alone that the liens and security interest granted and provided for in the Security Documents shall not be enforced as against any of the Collateral except at the direction of the Majority Creditors upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and in compliance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and the provisions hereof.  Each Creditor agrees that, as long as any Obligations exist or may become outstanding pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement and any other Credit Agreements, the provisions of this Agreement shall provide the exclusive method by which any Creditor may exercise rights and remedies under the Security Documents.
 
 
-19-

 
 
(b)  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Security Agent, at the direction of the Majority Creditors, shall seek to realize upon the security interests and liens granted to the Security Agent under the Security Documents in such manner (consistent with the Intercreditor Agreement, to the extent applicable) as shall be directed by the Majority Creditors.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Security Agent shall follow the instructions of the Majority Creditors with respect to the preservation, protection, collection or realization upon any Collateral.  If the Security Agent has requested instructions from the Majority Creditors and the Majority Creditors have not responded to such request within 30 days thereafter (excluding a notification that the Majority Creditors have not agreed upon the actions to be taken by the Security Agent, in which case, the Security Agent shall take no action until instructions of the Majority Creditors are received), the Security Agent may take, but shall have no obligation to take, any and all actions under the Security Documents or any of them or otherwise, including foreclosure of any lien or any other exercise of remedies, as the Security Agent, in good faith, shall determine to be in the best interests of the Creditors and to maximize both the value of the Collateral and the present value of the recovery by each of the Creditors on the Obligations; provided, however, that, if instructions are thereafter received from the Majority Creditors, then any subsequent actions of the Security Agent shall be subject to such instructions; provided, further, that the Security Agent shall not seek to realize upon the security interest and liens granted to it under the Security Documents unless an Event of Default shall have occurred.
 
Section 16.3. Independent Actions by Creditors.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit any Creditor from (a) accelerating the maturity of, or demanding payment from any of the Credit Parties on, any Obligation of the Credit Parties to such Creditor, (b) instituting legal action against any of the Credit Parties to obtain a judgment or other legal process in respect of such Obligation, (c) imposing a default rate of interest in accordance with the Note Purchase Agreement or other Credit Agreement, as applicable, or (d) raising any defenses in any action in which it has been made a party defendant or has been joined as a third party, except that the Security Agent may direct and control any defense to the extent directly relating to the Collateral or any one or more of the Security Documents, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
 
Section 17.
No Waiver by Security Agent, Etc.
 
The Security Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights and remedies in respect of the Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the Security Agent with the consent of the Majority Creditors.  No delay or omission on the part of the Security Agent in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy.  A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion.  All rights and remedies of the Security Agent with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successively or concurrently at such time or at such times as the Security Agent deems expedient.

Section 18.
Suretyship Waivers by Credit Parties.
 
Each Credit Party waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description.  With respect to both the Obligations and the Collateral, each Credit Party assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of or failure to perfect any security interest in any Collateral, to the addition or release of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to the acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or adjusting of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Security Agent may deem advisable.  The Security Agent shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of the Collateral or any income therefrom, the preservation of rights against prior parties, or the preservation of any rights pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof as set forth in Section 11.2.  Each Credit Party further waives any and all other suretyship defenses.
 
Section 19.
Marshalling.
 
Neither the Security Agent nor any Secured Party shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the rights and remedies of the Security Agent or any Secured Party hereunder and of the Security Agent or any Secured Party in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising.  To the extent that it lawfully may, each Credit Party hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Security Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, such Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
 
Section 20.
Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses.
 
The Credit Parties shall pay to the Security Agent on demand any and all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses for legal services of every kind, including, without limitation, reasonable allocated costs of staff counsel and disbursements, incurred or paid by the Security Agent in protecting, preserving or enforcing the Security Agent’s rights and remedies under or in respect of any of the Obligations or any of the Collateral.  After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any proceeds of collection or sale or other disposition of Collateral shall, to the extent actually received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in accordance with the provisions of Section 21.  Upon the final payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations and after making any payments required by Sections 9-608(a)(1)(C) or 9-615(a)(3) of the UCC of the State, any excess shall be returned to the Credit Parties.  In the absence of final payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations, the Credit Parties shall remain liable for any deficiency.
