ARTICLE 2 THE NOTES Section 2.01 Form and Dating. (a) General. The
Notes and the Trustee's certificate of authentication will be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have
notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange
rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its
authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of $1,000 and
integral multiples thereof. The terms and provisions contained in
the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of
this Indenture and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution
and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and
provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any
provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this
Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be
controlling. 23 (b) Rule 144A Global Notes. Notes offered and sold
in reliance on Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of
one or more notes in registered, global form, without interest
coupons, and will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto
(including the Global Note Legend thereon and the "Schedule of
Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note" attached thereto). Notes
offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A and issued in definitive
form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but
without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the "Schedule of
Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note" attached thereto). Each
144A Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes
offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A as will be specified
therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed
thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding
Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or
increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions.
Any endorsement of a 144A Global Note to reflect the amount of any
increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of
outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee
or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance
with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by
Section 2.06 hereof. (c) Regulation S Global Notes. Notes offered
and sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S shall

registered, global form, without interest coupons (the "Temporary
Regulation S Global Note") and will be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the
"Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note" attached
thereto). During the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the
Temporary Regulation S Global Note may be held only through
Euroclear and Clearstream (as indirect participants in the
Depositary), unless transferred to a Person that takes delivery
through a Rule 144A Global Note in accordance with Section 2.06
hereof. Within a reasonable time period after the expiration of the
Restricted Period, upon receipt by the Trustee and the Company of a
duly executed certificate certifying that the Holder of the
beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note is a
Non-U.S. Person, substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto from
the Depositary, a single permanent global Note in registered form
substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the "Permanent
Regulation S Global Note", and together with the Temporary
Regulation S Global Note, the "Regulation S Global Note") duly
executed by the Company (and having an executed Guarantee from each
of the Guarantors endorsed thereon) and authenticated by the
Trustee as hereinafter provided for shall be deposited with the
Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, and the Registrar shall
reflect on its books and records the cancellation of the Temporary
Regulation S Global Note and the issuance of the Permanent
Regulation S Global Note. Notes offered and sold in offshore
transactions in reliance on Regulation S and issued in definitive
form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but
without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the "Schedule of
Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note" attached thereto). Each
Regulation S Global Note will represent such of the outstanding
Notes offered and sold in offshore transaction in reliance on
Regulation S as will be specified therein and each shall provide
that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding
Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from
time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect
exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Regulation S Global
Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the
aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby
24 will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction
of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder
thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof. (d) Euroclear and
Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the "Operating
Procedures of the Euroclear System" and "Terms and Conditions
Governing Use of Euroclear" and the "General Terms and Conditions
of Clearstream Banking" and "Customer Handbook" of Clearstream will
be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the
Regulation S Global Note that are held by Participants through
Euroclear or Clearstream. Section 2.02 Execution and
Authentication. At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the
Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose
signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a
Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be valid. A Note
will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of
the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the
Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. The Trustee will,
upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by at least
two Officers (an "Authentication Order"), authenticate Notes for
original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture,
including any Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of
Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate
principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Company
pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided
in Section 2.07 hereof. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating
agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes. An
authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee
may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by
the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An
authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with
Holders or an Affiliate of the Company. Section 2.03 Registrar and
Paying Agent. The Company will maintain an office or agency where
Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
("Registrar") and an office or agency where Notes may be presented
for payment ("Paying Agent"). The Registrar will keep a register of
the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may
appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying
agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term
"Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent. The Company
may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any
Holder. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the name
and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the
Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or
Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of
its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. The Company
initially appoints The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") to act as
Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. 25 The Company
initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying
Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.
Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Company will
require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in
writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of
Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the
payment of principal, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or
interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default
by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default
continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money
held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a
Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon
payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the
Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the
money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will
segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the
Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy
or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee
will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. Section 2.05 Holder
Lists. The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is
reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the
names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with
TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the
Company will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days
before each interest payment date and at such other times as the
Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such
date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and
addresses of the Holders of Notes and the Company shall otherwise
comply with TIA Section 312(a). Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange.
(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be
transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the
Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to
another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such
nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor
Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for
Definitive Notes if: (1) the Company delivers to the Trustee notice
from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to
act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency
registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor
Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 120 days after
the date of such notice from the Depositary; (2) the Company in its
sole discretion determines that the Global Notes (in whole but not
in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes and delivers a
written notice to such effect to the Trustee; or (3) there has
occurred and is continuing a Default or Event of Default with
respect to the Notes. 26 Upon the occurrence of either of the
preceding events in (1) or (2) above, Definitive Notes shall be
issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee.
Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in
part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note
authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a
Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06
or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and
delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global
Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided
in this Section 2.06(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global
Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section
2.06(b), (c) or (f) hereof. (b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial
Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of
beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through
the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture
and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the
Restricted Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer
comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the
Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global
Notes also will require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or
(2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other
following subparagraphs, as applicable: (1) Transfer of Beneficial
Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any
Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take
delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same
Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions
set forth in the Private Placement Legend; provided, however, that
prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers of
beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note may not be
made to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S.
Person (other than an Initial Purchaser). Beneficial interests in
any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take
delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an
Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall
be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the
transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(1). (2) All Other
Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In
connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests
that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(1) above, the transferor of
such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either: (A)
both: (i) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect
Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause
to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an
amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or
exchanged; and (ii) instructions from the Depositary given in
accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information
regarding the Participant account to be credited with such
increase; or 27 (B) both: (i) a written order from a Participant or
an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with

issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the beneficial
interest to be transferred or exchanged; and (ii) instructions
given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information
regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be
registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1)
above. Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer by the Company in
accordance with Section 2.06(f) hereof, the requirements of this
Section 2.06(b)(2) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon
receipt by the Registrar of the instructions contained in the
Letter of Transmittal delivered by the Holder of such beneficial
interests in the Restricted Global Notes. Upon satisfaction of all
of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial
interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes
or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall
adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant
to Section 2.06(h) hereof. (3) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to
Another Restricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any
Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes
delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another
Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the
requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2) above and the Registrar receives

Unrestricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted
Global Note may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial
interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person

when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the
Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in
accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate
one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial
interests transferred pursuant to subparagraph (B) or (D) above.

are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the
Securities Act. (3) Unrestricted Definitive Notes to Unrestricted
Definitive Notes. A Holder of Unrestricted Definitive Notes may
transfer such Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the
form of an Unrestricted Definitive Note. Upon receipt of a request
to register such a transfer, the Registrar shall register the
Unrestricted Definitive Notes pursuant to the instructions from the
Holder thereof. (f) Exchange Offer. Upon the occurrence of the
Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights
Agreement, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the
Trustee will authenticate: (1) one or more Unrestricted Global

amount of the beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes
accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer by Persons that certify
in the applicable Letters of Transmittal that (A) they are not
Broker-Dealers, (B) they are not participating in a distribution of
the Exchange Notes and (C) they are not affiliates (as defined in

Persons designated by the Holders of Definitive Notes so accepted
Unrestricted Definitive Notes in the appropriate principal amount.
(g) Legends. The following legends will appear on the face of all
Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued under this Indenture
unless specifically stated otherwise in the applicable provisions

SHALL PROVIDE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THAT THE TRANSFEREE IS AN
INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR AND THAT IT IS ACQUIRING THE
SECURITIES FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN
VIOLATION OF THE SECURITIES ACT." (B) Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any Global Note or Definitive Note issued pursuant to
subparagraphs (b)(4), (c)(2), (c)(3), (d)(2), (d)(3), (e)(2),

Global Note Legend. In addition to the legend in subparagraph (1)
above, prior to the end of the 40 day distribution compliance
period referenced in Regulation S, each Temporary Regulation S
Global Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following
form: "BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THIS REGULATION S GLOBAL

REPRESENTING AN INTEREST IN THE NOTES REPRESENTED HEREBY WHICH DO
NOT CONTAIN A LEGEND CONTAINING RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, UNTIL THE

ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE
UNITED STATES. HOLDERS OF INTERESTS IN THIS REGULATION S GLOBAL
NOTE WILL NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER OF SUCH RESALE RESTRICTIONS, IF THEN
APPLICABLE." (h) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At
such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note
have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global
Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in
part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and
canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At
any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in
a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will
take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in
another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount
of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced
accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by
the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to
reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being
exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery
thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global
Note, such other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an
endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by
the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such
increase. (i) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and
Exchanges. (1) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges,
the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate Global
Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order
in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof or at the Registrar's
request. (2) No service charge will be made to a Holder of a
beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive
Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax
or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
(other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge
payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06,
3.09, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.05 hereof). 39 (3) The Registrar will not be
required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note
selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
portion of any Note being redeemed in part. (4) All Global Notes
and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes will be the valid
obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled
to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or
Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or
exchange. (5) Neither the Registrar nor the Company will be
required: (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange
any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under
Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day
of selection; (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any
Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the
unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or (C) to
register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record
date and the next succeeding interest payment date. (6) Prior to
due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the
Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in
whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such
Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and
interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the
Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to
the contrary. (7) The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and
Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02
hereof. (8) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of
Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this
Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may
be submitted by facsimile. Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. If any
mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the Trustee,
upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a
replacement Note if the Trustee's requirements are met. If required
by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied
by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and
the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any
authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a
Note is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in
replacing a Note. 40 Every replacement Note is an additional
obligation of the Company and will be entitled to all of the
benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all
other Notes duly issued hereunder. Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes.
The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated
by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to
it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global
Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions
hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not
outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note
does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an
Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; however, Notes held by the
Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed to be
outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(a) hereof. If a Note is
replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it will be deemed
outstanding only if the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it
that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser within the
meaning of Section 8-303 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code.
If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under
Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it
ceases to accrue. If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a
Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption
date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on
that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to
be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest. Section
2.09 Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the
required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction,
waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company or any Guarantor, or
by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by
or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any
Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except
that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be
protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only
Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned
will be so disregarded. Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. Until
certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company
may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication
Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be
substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have
variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary
Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without
unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare and the Trustee will
authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.
Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits
of this Indenture. 41 Section 2.11 Cancellation. The Company at any
time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The
Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes
surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or
payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes
surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment,
replacement or cancellation and will dispose of canceled Notes in
accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record
retention requirement of the Exchange Act). The Company may not
issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. Section 2.12 Defaulted
Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the
Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner
plus, to the extent law
