Item 1.01 - Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
6.500% Senior Notes due 2023
On April 1, 2015, Townsquare Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), completed the previously announced sale of $300 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.500% senior notes due 2023 (the “New Notes”) at an issue price of 100.0%.
The New Notes were issued and sold in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The New Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior basis by certain of the Company’s direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries.
A copy of the press release announcing the closing of the offering of the New Notes is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
Indenture
The terms of the New Notes are governed by the indenture, dated as of April 1, 2015 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the guarantors named therein and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).
Interest and Maturity
The New Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.500% and mature on April 1, 2023. Interest is payable on the New Notes on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on October 1, 2015.
Guarantees
The Company’s obligations under the New Notes are guaranteed by certain of its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries. The New Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations, will rank equally with all of its existing and future senior unsecured debt and will be senior to all of its existing and future subordinated debt.
Covenants
The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional debt or issue preferred stock; create liens; create restrictions on the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to make payments to the Company; pay dividends and make other distributions in respect of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ capital stock; make certain investments or certain other restricted payments; guarantee indebtedness; designate unrestricted subsidiaries; sell certain kinds of assets; enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; and effect mergers and consolidations.
Certain of these covenants will be suspended if the New Notes are assigned an investment grade rating by Standard & Poor’s Investors Ratings Services, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Fitch, Inc. and no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing.
Events of Default
The Indenture provides for events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), which include, among others, nonpayment of principal or interest when due, breach of covenants or other agreements in the Indenture, defaults in payment of certain other indebtedness and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs, the Trustee or the Holders of 30% in principal amount of the outstanding New Notes may declare the principal of and unpaid interest on all of the New Notes to be due and payable immediately.
Redemption
At any time prior to April 1, 2018, the Company may redeem the New Notes in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the New Notes plus the “applicable premium” set forth in the Indenture. At any time on or after April 1, 2018, the Company may redeem the New Notes at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to April 1, 2018, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the New Notes with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings, as described

2



in the Indenture, at a price equal to 106.500% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, holders of the New Notes may require it to repurchase all or part of their New Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.
The foregoing summary of the Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual Indenture, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
Senior Secured Credit Facility
On April 1, 2015, the Company entered into a $325 million credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders and financial institutions party thereto. The New Credit Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, provides for a new seven-year, $275 million term loan facility (the “New Term Loan Facility”) and a five-year, $50 million revolving credit facility (the “New Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the New Term Loan Facility, the “New Senior Secured Credit Facility”).
The New Senior Secured Credit Facility replaces the Company’s exiting $111.2 million senior secured term loan facility and its existing senior secured revolving credit facility (together, the “Existing Senior Secured Credit Facility”) under the Company’s existing credit agreement dated April 2, 2012, among Townsquare Radio, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as borrower, General Electric Capital Corporation, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the guarantors, lenders, l/c issuers and financial institutions party thereto (the “Existing Credit Agreement”).
Maturity and prepayments
The New Term Loan Facility matures on April 1, 2022. Revolving loans and swingline loans incurred under the New Revolving Credit Facility mature on April 1, 2020.
Subject to certain exceptions, the New Senior Secured Credit Facility will be subject to mandatory pre-payments in amounts equal to (1) 100% of the net cash proceeds from issuances or incurrence of debt by the Company or any of the subsidiary guarantors (other than with respect to certain permitted indebtedness); (2) 100% of the net cash proceeds from certain sales or other dispositions of assets by the Company or any of the subsidiary guarantors in excess of a certain amount and subject to customary reinvestment provisions and certain other exceptions; and (3) 50% (with step-downs after December 31, 2015 to 25% and 0% based upon achievement of specified total net leverage ratios) of annual excess cash flow of the Company and its subsidiaries subject to customary exceptions and limitations.
Security and guarantees
The obligations of the Company under the New Senior Secured Credit Facility are guaranteed by each of its direct and indirect, existing and future, domestic subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions and limitations, pursuant to a guarantee and security agreement, dated as of April 1, 2015 (the “Guarantee and Security Agreement”), by and between the Company, the guarantors party thereto and Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative and collateral agent.
The New Senior Secured Credit Facility is secured on a first priority basis by a perfected security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and each guarantor’s tangible and intangible assets (subject to certain exceptions).
Interest
The initial per annum interest rate applicable to the New Term Loan Facility is 4.25%, based on current LIBOR levels, a 1.00% LIBOR floor and an applicable margin of 325 basis points. The per annum interest rate applicable to the New Revolving Credit Facility is based on current LIBOR levels (or an alternative base rate) and an applicable margin of 250 basis points however, the New Revolving Credit Facility was undrawn at the close of the transaction.
Covenants
The New Senior Secured Credit Facility contain a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Company and the guarantors to (1) incur additional indebtedness (including guarantee obligations); (2) incur liens; (3) engage in mergers or other fundamental changes; (4) sell certain property or assets; (5) pay dividends or other distributions; (6) make acquisitions, investments, loans and advances; (7) prepay certain indebtedness, including the New Notes; (8) change the nature of their business; (9) engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and (10) incur restrictions

3

Events of Default
The New Senior Secured Credit Facility will contain customary events of default, including with respect to nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts; material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty when made; failure to perform or observe covenants; cross-default to other indebtedness in an amount of $30 million; bankruptcy and insolvency events; inability to pay debts; monetary judgment defaults in an amount of $30 million; actual or asserted invalidity or impairment of any definitive loan documentation; and a change of control.
The foregoing description of the New Senior Secured Credit Facility is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the New Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and Security Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.
Item 1.02 - Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
Existing Indenture and 9.500% Senior Notes due 2019
The Company is using a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the New Notes, together with cash on hand and its borrowings under the New Term Loan Facility to redeem the remaining $410.9 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 9.00% senior notes due 2019 (the “Existing Notes”), issued by Townsquare Radio, LLC and Townsquare Radio, Inc., two of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of April 4, 2012, by and between Townsquare Radio, LLC and Townsquare Radio, Inc., as issuers, the guarantors party thereto and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Existing Indenture”). The obligations of the Company and the guarantors under the Existing Indenture and with respect to the Existing Notes were terminated on April 1, 2015, concurrently with the redemption of the Existing Notes pursuant to the terms of the Existing Indenture.

WHEREAS, the Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Indenture; WHEREAS, all things necessary (i) to make the Notes, when executed and duly issued by the Company and authenticated and delivered hereunder, the valid obligations of the Company, and (ii) to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Company have been done; and NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Notes by the Holders there- of, it is mutually covenanted and agreed, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders, as follows: ARTICLE I DEFINITIONS AND INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE SECTION 1.1. Definitions. “Acquired Indebtedness” means Indebtedness (1) of a Person or any of its Subsidiaries existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, (2) assumed in connection with the acquisition of assets from such Person, in each case whether or not Incurred by such Person in connection with such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or such acquisition or (3) of a Person at the time such Person merges or amalgamates with or into or consolidates or otherwise combines with the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary. Acquired In- debtedness shall be deemed to have been Incurred, with respect to clause (1) of the preceding sentence, on the date such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary and, with respect to clause (2) of the preceding sentence, on the date of consummation of such acquisition of assets and, with respect to clause (3) of the preceding sentence, on the date of the relevant merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other combination. “Additional Assets” means: (1) any property or assets (other than Capital Stock) used or to be used by the Company, a Restricted Subsidiary or otherwise useful in a Similar Business (it being understood that capital expendi- tures on property or assets already used in a Similar Business or to replace any property or assets that are the subject of such Asset Disposition shall be deemed an investment in Additional Assets); (2) the Capital Stock of a Person that is engaged in a Similar Business and becomes a Re- stricted Subsidiary as a result of the acquisition of such Capital Stock by the Company or a Restricted Sub- sidiary of the Company; or (3) Capital Stock constituting a minority interest in any Person that at such time is a Restrict- ed Subsidiary of the Company. “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person, directly or indirectly, controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For the purposes of this definition, “con- trol” when used with respect to any Person means the power to direct the management and policies of such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing.

-20- (b) if since the beginning of such period the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary will have made any Asset Disposition or disposed of or discontinued any company, division, oper- ating unit, segment, business, group of related assets or line of business or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Leverage Ratio includes such an Asset Disposition, Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Interest Expense and Indebtedness for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Asset Disposition, disposition or discontinuation occurred on the first day of such period; (c) if since the beginning of such period the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) will have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Per- son that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is merged with or into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets, including any acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes all or substantial- ly all of a company, division, operating unit, segment, business or group of related assets or line of business, Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Interest Expense and Indebtedness for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebted- ness) as if such Investment or acquisition occurred on the first day of such period; and (d) 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) will have Incurred any Indebtedness or discharged any Indebtedness or made any disposition or any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an ad- justment pursuant to clause (a), (b) or (c) above if made by the Company or a Restricted Subsidi- ary during such period, Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Interest Expense and Indebtedness for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction oc- curred on the first day of such period. The pro forma calculations will be determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting Of- ficer 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 will be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any interest rate agreement applicable to such Indebted- ness). Notwithstanding anything in this definition to the contrary, when calculating the Leverage Ratio in connec- tion with a Limited Condition Acquisition, the date of determination of such ratio and of any default or event of de- fault blocker shall, at the option of the Company, be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into and such ratios shall be calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Lim- ited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incur- rence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter refer- ence period, and, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any such ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Company or the target company) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition, such ratio will not be deemed to have been ex- ceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted hereunder and (y) such ratio shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related transactions; provided further, that if the Company elects to have such determination occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement, any such transaction shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreements are entered and outstanding thereafter for purposes of subsequently calculating any ratios under this Indenture after the date of such agreement and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Ac- quisition and to the extent baskets were utilized in satisfying any covenants, such baskets shall be deemed utilized, but any calculation of Total Assets or Consolidated Net Income for purposes of other incurrences of Indebtedness or Liens or making of Restricted Payments (not related to such Limited Condition Acquisition) shall not reflect such Limited Condition Acquisition until it is closed. “License Subsidiary” means a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company that (x) owns no material assets other than FCC Licenses and related rights and (y) has no material liabilities other than (i) trade payables incurred in

In authenticating and delivering Additional Notes, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate required by Section 12.2, an Opinion of Counsel as to the due authorization, execution, delivery, validity and enforceability of such Additional Notes. The Initial Notes and the Additional Notes shall be considered collectively as a single class for all purpos- es of this Indenture. Holders of the Initial Notes and the Additional Notes will vote and consent together on all mat- ters to which such Holders are entitled to vote or consent as one class, and none of the Holders of the Initial Notes or the Additional Notes shall have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter to which such Holders are entitled to vote or consent. If any of the terms of any Additional Notes are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution of the Company, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officer’s Certificate and the indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the Additional Notes. (b) The Initial Notes are being offered and sold by the Company pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, dated March 24, 2015, among the Company, the guarantors named therein and the Initial Purchasers. The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes (if issued as Restricted Notes) (the “Additional Restricted Notes”) will be resold initially only to (A) Persons they reasonably believe to be QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A and (B) Non-U.S. Persons in reliance on Regulation S. Such Initial Notes and Additional Restricted Notes may thereafter be transferred to, among others, QIBs, purchasers in reliance on Regulation S, AIs and IAIs in accordance with Rule 501 under the Securities Act, in each case, in accordance with the procedure described herein. Additional Notes offered after the date hereof may be offered and sold by the Company from time to time pursuant to one or more purchase agree- ments in accordance with applicable law. Initial Notes and Additional Restricted Notes offered and sold to QIBs in the United States of America in reliance on Rule 144A (the “Rule 144A Notes”) shall be issued in the form of a permanent global Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Indenture, including appropriate legends as set forth in Section 2.1(d) (the “Rule 144A Global Note”), deposited with the Trustee, as cus- todian for DTC, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The Rule 144A Global Note may be represented by more than one certificate, if so required by DTC’s rules regarding the maximum principal amount to be represented by a single certificate. The aggregate principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for DTC or its nominee, as hereinafter provided. Initial Notes and any Additional Restricted Notes offered and sold to non-U.S. Persons outside the United States of America (the “Regulation S Notes”) in reliance on Regulation S shall initially be issued in the form of a temporary global Note (the “Temporary Regulation S Global Note”). Beneficial interests in the Temporary Regula- tion S Global Note will be exchanged for beneficial interests in a corresponding permanent global Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A including appropriate legends as set forth in Section 2.1(d) (the “Permanent Regulation S Global Note” and, together with the Temporary Regulation S Global Note, each a “Regulation S Global Note”) within a reasonable period after the expiration of the Restricted Period (as defined below) upon delivery of the certi- fication contemplated by Section 2.7. Each Regulation S Global Note will be deposited upon issuance with, or on behalf of, the Trustee as custodian for DTC in the manner described in this Article II. Prior to the 40th day after the later of the commencement of the offering of the Initial Notes and the Issue Date (such period through and including such 40th day, the “Restricted Period”), interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note may only be trans- ferred to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S, unless exchanged for interests in a Global Note in accordance with the transfer and certification requirements described herein. Investors may hold their interests in the Regulation S Global Note through organizations other than Euro- clear or Clearstream that are participants in DTC’s system or directly through Euroclear or Clearstream, if they are participants in such systems, or indirectly through organizations which are participants in such systems. If such in- terests are held through Euroclear or Clearstream, Euroclear and Clearstream will hold such interests in the applica-


 
-38- ble Regulation S Global Note on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in their respec- tive names on the books of their respective depositaries. Such depositaries, in turn, will hold such interests in the applicable Regulation S Global Note in customers’ securities accounts in the depositaries’ names on the books of DTC. The Regulation S Global Note may be represented by more than one certificate, if so required by DTC’s rules regarding the maximum principal amount to be represented by a single certificate. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for DTC or its nominee, as hereinafter provided. Initial Notes and Additional Restricted Notes resold to IAIs (the “Institutional Accredited Investor Notes”) in the United States of America shall be issued in the form of a permanent global Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A including appropriate legends as set forth in Section 2.1(d) (the “Institutional Accredited Investor Global Note”) deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for DTC, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The Institutional Accredited Investor Global Note may be represented by more than one certificate, if so required by DTC’s rules regarding the maximum principal amount to be represented by a single certificate. The aggregate principal amount of the Institutional Accredited Investor Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for DTC or its nom- inee, as hereinafter provided. Initial Notes and Additional Restricted Notes resold to AIs in the United States of America shall be issued in the form of a Definitive Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A including the legend as set forth in Sec- tion 2.1(d)(5) (an “Accredited Investor Note”). The Rule 144A Global Note, the Regulation S Global Note and the Institutional Accredited Investor Global Note are sometimes collectively herein referred to as the “Global Notes.” The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of Paying Agent designated by the Company maintained for such purpose (which shall initially be the office of the Trustee maintained for such purpose), or at such other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3; provided, however, that, at the option of the Paying Agent, each installment of interest may be paid by (i) check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled thereto as such addresses shall appear on the Notes Register or (ii) wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained by the payee, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph. Payments in respect of Notes represented by a Global Note (including princi- pal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by DTC. Payments in respect of Notes represented by Definitive Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) held by a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by De- finitive Notes will be made in accordance with the Notes Register, or by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account main- tained 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). The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage, in addition to those set forth on Exhibit A and in Section 2.1(d). The Company shall approve any notation, endorse- ment or legend on the Notes. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the Notes set forth in Exhibit A are part of the terms of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to be bound by such terms. (c) Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable only in fully registered form in minimum denomi- nations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. (d) Restrictive Legends. Unless and until (i) an Initial Note or an Additional Note issued as a Re- stricted Note is sold under an effective registration statement or (ii) the Company receives an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act:

(2) the Temporary Regulation S Global Note shall bear the following additional legend on the face thereof:

BENEFICIAL INTERESTS HEREIN ARE NOT EXCHANGEABLE FOR PHYSICAL NOTES OTHER THAN A PERMANENT GLOBAL NOTE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE INDENTURE. TERMS IN THIS LEGEND ARE USED AS USED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. (3) Each Global Note, whether or not an Initial Note, shall bear the following legend on the face thereof: UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”), NEW YORK, NEW YORK, TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO.

NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, REGISTRATION.

THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON THE REQUEST OF THE HOLDER AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE APPLICABLE HOLDING PERIOD WITH RESPECT TO RESTRICTED SECURITIES SET FORTH IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. BY ITS ACQUISITION OF THIS SECURITY THE HOLDER AND ANY SUBSEQUENT TRANSFEREE HEREOF WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE REPRESENTED AND WARRANTED THAT EITHER (I) THE PURCHASER IS NOT ACQUIRING OR HOLDING SUCH NOTE OR AN INTEREST THEREIN WITH THE ASSETS OF (A) AN “EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN” (AS DEFINED IN SECTION 3(3) OF ERISA) THAT IS SUBJECT TO ERISA, (B) A “PLAN” DESCRIBED IN SECTION 4975 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE “CODE”), (C) ANY ENTITY DEEMED TO HOLD “PLAN ASSETS” OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING BY REASON OF AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN’S OR PLAN’S INVESTMENT IN SUCH ENTITY OR (D) A GOVERNMENTAL PLAN OR CHURCH PLAN SUBJECT TO SUCH PROVISIONS THAT ARE SIMILAR TO SUCH PROVISIONS OF ERISA OR THE CODE (COLLECTIVELY, “SIMILAR LAWS”) OR (II) THE ACQUISITION AND HOLDING OF SUCH NOTE BY THE PURCHASER, THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD THAT IT HOLDS SUCH NOTE AND THE DISPOSITION OF SUCH NOTE OR AN INTEREST THEREIN WILL NOT CONSTITUTE OR RESULT IN A NON-EXEMPT PROHIBITED TRANSACTION UNDER SECTION 406 OF ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE, A BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY UNDER ERISA OR A VIOLATION OF ANY PROVISIONS OF ANY APPLICABLE SIMILAR LAW. (e) Book-Entry Provisions. (i) This Section 2.1(e) shall apply only to Global Notes deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for DTC. (1) Each Global Note initially shall (x) be registered in the name of DTC or the nominee of DTC, (y) be delivered to the Notes Custodian for DTC and (z) bear legends as set forth in Section 2.1(d). Transfers of a Global Note (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers thereof in whole, but not in part, to the DTC, its successors or its respective nominees, except as set forth in Sec- tion 2.1(e)(4) and 2.1(f). If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a benefi- cial interest in another Global Note, the Notes Custodian will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note being transferred or exchanged equal to the principal amount of such transfer or ex- change and (y) record a like increase in the principal amount of the other Global Note. Any beneficial in- terest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in an- other Global Note, or exchanged for an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, according- ly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and other procedures applica- ble to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. (2) Members of, or participants in, DTC (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by DTC or by the Notes Custodian as the custodian of DTC or under such Global Note, and DTC may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes what-


 
-42- soever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or impair, as between DTC and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of DTC governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note. (3) In connection with any transfer of a portion of the beneficial interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.1(f) to beneficial owners who are required to hold Definitive Notes, the Notes Custo- dian shall reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Global Note to be trans- ferred, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, one or more Definitive Notes of like tenor and amount. (4) In connection with the transfer of an entire Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to Section 2.1(f), such Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, to each benefi- cial owner identified by DTC in exchange for its beneficial interest in such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. (5) The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person, including Agent Members and persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. (6) Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that trans- fers of beneficial interests in such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry system main- tained by (i) the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent) or (ii) any holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Note shall be required to be reflect- ed in a book entry. (f) Definitive Notes. (ii) Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes will not be entitled to receive Definitive Notes. Definitive Notes shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in ex- change for their beneficial interests in a Global Note if (A) DTC notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such Global Note or DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, at a time when DTC is required to be so registered in order to act as depositary, and in each case a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice, (B) the Company in its sole discretion executes and deliver to the Trustee and Registrar an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Global Note shall be so exchangeable or (C) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a written request from DTC. In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in the second preceding sentence or in clause (A), (B) or (C) of the preceding sentence, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a rea- sonable supply of Definitive Notes. In addition, any Note transferred to an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the Company or evidencing a Note that has been acquired by an affiliate in a transaction or series of transactions not involving any public offering must, until one year after the last date on which either the Company or any affiliate of the Company was an owner of the Note, be in the form of a Definitive Note and bear the legend regarding transfer restrictions in Section 2.1(d). If required to do so pursuant to any applicable law or regula- tion, beneficial owners may also obtain Definitive Notes in exchange for their beneficial interests in a Global Note upon written request in accordance with DTC’s and the Registrar’s procedures. (1) Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.1(e) shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.6(d), bear the applicable legend regarding transfer restrictions applicable to the Global Note set forth in Section 2.1(d). (2) If a Definitive Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel such Definitive Note, (y) record an increase in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) in the event that such trans- fer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Definitive Note, the Compa- ny shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, to the transferring Holder a new Definitive Note representing the principal amount not so transferred.


 
-43- (3) If a Definitive Note is transferred or exchanged for another Definitive Note, (x) the Trus- tee will cancel the Definitive Note being transferred or exchanged, (y) the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, one or more new Definitive Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such transfer or ex- change to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the Holder of the canceled Definitive Note (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or Holder, as applicable, and (z) if such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Definitive Note, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder thereof, one or more Definitive Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Definitive Notes, registered in the name of the Hold- er thereof. (4) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, in no event shall a Definitive Note be delivered upon exchange or transfer of a beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note prior to the end of the Restricted Period. SECTION 2.2. Execution and Authentication. One Officer shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If the Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless. A Note shall not be valid until an authorized officer of the Trustee manually authenticates the Note. The signature of the Trustee on a Note shall be conclusive evidence that such Note has been duly and validly authenti- cated and issued under this Indenture. A Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Trustee shall au- thenticate and make available for delivery: (1) Initial Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000, (2) subject to the terms of this Indenture, Additional Notes for original issue in an unlimited principal amount, (3) under the circumstances set forth in Section 2.6(e), Initial Notes in the form of an Unrestricted Global Note, in each case upon a written order of the Company signed by one Officer (the “Issuer Or- der”). Such Issuer Order shall specify whether the Notes will be in the form of Definitive Notes or Global Notes, the amount of the Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated, the holder of the Notes and whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes. The Trustee may appoint an agent (the “Authenticating Agent”) reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenti- cating Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authenti- cation by the Trustee includes authentication by the Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands. In case the Company or any Guarantor, pursuant to Article IV or Section 10.2, as applicable, shall be con- solidated or merged with or into any other Person or shall convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its proper- ties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into which the Company or any Guarantor shall have been merged, or the Person which shall have received a conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article IV, any of the Notes authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition may (but shall not be required), from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for other Notes executed in the name of the suc- cessor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate to reflect such successor Person, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Notes surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon the Issuer Order of the successor Person, shall authenticate and make available for delivery Notes as specified in such order for the purpose of such exchange. If Notes shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to this Section 2.2 in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Notes, such successor Person, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Notes at the time outstanding for Notes authenticated and delivered in such new name.


 
-44- SECTION 2.3. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and ex- change (the “Notes Register”). The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional pay- ing agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent and the term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar. The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of each such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensa- tion therefor pursuant to Section 7.7. The Company or any Guarantor may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or transfer agent. The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes. The Company may change any Registrar or Paying Agent without prior notice to the Holders, but upon written notice to such Reg- istrar 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 and the passage of any waiting or notice periods required by DTC procedures or (ii) written 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. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Company and the Trustee. SECTION 2.4. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. By no later than 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the date on which any principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note is due and payable, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient in immediately available funds to pay such principal, premium or interest when due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (whether such assets have been distributed to it by the Company or other obligors on the Notes), shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Com- pany or any Guarantor in making any such payment and shall during the continuance of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of any payment in respect of the Notes, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith deliver to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Notes together with a full accounting thereof. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company 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 ac- count for any funds or assets disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.4, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) shall have no further liability for the money de- livered to the Trustee. Upon any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. SECTION 2.5. Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practica- ble the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of each of the Guarantors, shall furnish or cause the Registrar to furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five 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 Holders. SECTION 2.6. Transfer and Exchange. (a) A Holder may transfer a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) to another Person or exchange a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) for another Note or Notes of any authorized denomination by presenting to the Registrar a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, ac- companied by any certification, opinion or other document required by this Section 2.6. The Registrar will promptly register any transfer or exchange that meets the requirements of this Section 2.6 by noting the same in the Notes


 
-45- Register maintained by the Registrar for the purpose, and no transfer or exchange will be effective until it is regis- tered in such Notes Register. The transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) may only be made in accordance with this Section 2.6 and Section 2.1(e) and 2.1(f), as applicable, and, in the case of a Global Note (or a beneficial interest therein), the applicable rules and procedures of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream. The Registrar shall refuse to register any requested transfer or exchange that does not comply with this paragraph. (b) Transfers of Rule 144A Notes and Institutional Accredited Investor Notes. The following provi- sions shall apply with respect to any proposed registration of transfer of a Rule 144A Note or an Institutional Ac- credited Investor Note prior to the date that is one year after the later of the date of its 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”): (1) a registration or transfer of a Rule 144A Note or an Institutional Accredited Investor Note or a beneficial interest therein to a QIB shall be made upon the representation of the transferee in the form as set forth on the reverse of the Note that it is purchasing for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Company as the under- signed has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; provided that no such written representation or other written certifica- tion shall be required in connection with the transfer of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to a transferee in the form of a beneficial interest in that Rule 144A Global Note in accordance with this In- denture and the applicable procedures of DTC; (2) a registration of transfer of a Rule 144A Note or an Institutional Accredited Investor Note or a beneficial interest therein to an IAI or an AI shall be made upon receipt by the Registrar or its agent of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.8 or Section 2.10, respectively, from the pro- posed transferee and the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel, certification and/or other information satisfac- tory to the Company; and (3) a registration of transfer of a Rule 144A Note or an Institutional Accredited Investor Note or a beneficial interest therein to a Non-U.S. Person shall be made upon receipt by the Registrar or its agent of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.9 from the proposed transferee and the deliv- ery of an Opinion of Counsel, certification and/or other information satisfactory to the Company. (c) Transfers of Regulation S Notes. The following provisions shall apply with respect to any pro- posed transfer of a Regulation S Note prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period: (1) a transfer of a Regulation S Note or a beneficial interest therein to a QIB shall be made upon the representation of the transferee, in the form of assignment on the reverse of the certificate, that it is purchasing the Note for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Company as the undersigned has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; (2) a transfer of a Regulation S Note or a beneficial interest therein to an IAI or an AI shall be made upon receipt by the Registrar or its agent of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Sec- tion 2.8 or Section 2.10, respectively, from the proposed transferee and the delivery of an Opinion of Coun- sel, certification and/or other information satisfactory to the Company; and (3) a transfer of a Regulation S Note or a beneficial interest therein to a Non-U.S. Person shall be made upon receipt by the Registrar or its agent of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in


 
-46- Section 2.9 hereof from the proposed transferee and receipt by the Registrar or its agent of an Opinion of Counsel, certification and/or other information satisfactory to the Company. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, interests in the Regulation S Note may be transferred in ac- cordance with applicable law without requiring the certification set forth in Section 2.8, Section 2.9, Section 2.10 or any additional certification. (d) Restricted Notes Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing a Restricted Notes Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear a Restricted Notes Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing a Restricted Notes Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear a Restricted Notes Legend unless (1) an Initial Note is being transferred pursuant to an effective registra- tion statement, (2) Initial Notes are being exchanged for Notes that do not bear the Restricted Notes Legend in ac- cordance with Section 2.6(e) or (3) there is delivered to the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act. Any Additional Notes sold in a registered offering shall not be required to bear the Restricted Notes Legend. (e) Automatic Exchange from Global Note Bearing Restricted Notes Legend to Global Note Not Bearing Restricted Notes Legend. Upon the Company’s satisfaction that the Restricted Notes Legend shall no long- er be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act, beneficial interests in a Global Note bearing the Restricted Notes Legend (a “Restricted Global Note”) may be automatically exchanged into beneficial interests in a Global Note not bearing the Restricted Notes Legend (an “Unrestricted Global Note”) without any action re- quired by or on behalf of the Holder (the “Automatic Exchange”) at any time on or after the date that is the 366th calendar day after (1) with respect to the Notes issued on the Issue Date, the Issue Date or (2) with respect to Addi- tional Notes, if any, the issue date of such Additional Notes, or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (the “Automatic Exchange Date”). Upon the Company’s satisfaction that the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act, the Company shall (i) provide written notice to DTC and the Trustee at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the Au- tomatic Exchange Date, instructing DTC to exchange all of the outstanding beneficial interests in a particular Re- stricted Global Note to the Unrestricted Global Note, which the Company shall have previously otherwise made eligible for exchange with the DTC, (ii) provide prior written notice (the “Automatic Exchange Notice”) to each Holder at such Holder’s address appearing in the register of Holders at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the Automatic Exchange Date (the “Automatic Exchange Notice Date”), which notice must include (w) the Automatic Exchange Date, (x) the section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Automatic Exchange shall occur, (y) the “CUSIP” number of the Restricted Global Note from which such Holder’s beneficial interests will be transferred and (z) the “CUSIP” number of the Unrestricted Global Note into which such Holder’s beneficial interests will be transferred, and (iii) on or prior to the Automatic Exchange Date, deliver to the Trustee for authentication one or more Unrestricted Global Notes, duly executed by the Company and an Issuer Order requesting the Trustee to au- thenticate, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Restricted Global Notes to be exchanged into such Unrestricted Global Notes. At the Company’s written request on no less than five (5) calen- dar days’ notice prior to the Automatic Exchange Notice Date, the Trustee shall deliver, in the Company’s name and at its expense, the Automatic Exchange Notice to each Holder at such Holder’s address appearing in the register of Holders; provided that the Company has delivered to the Trustee the information required to be included in such Automatic Exchange Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.6(e), during the fifteen (15) calendar day period prior to the Automatic Exchange Date, no transfers or exchanges other than pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) shall be permitted without the prior written consent of the Company. As a condition to any Automatic Exchange, the Com- pany shall provide, and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the Company to the effect that the Automatic Exchange shall be effected in compliance with the Secu- rities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act and that the aggregate principal amount of the par- ticular Restricted Global Note is to be transferred to the particular Unrestricted Global Note by adjustment made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary to reflect the Automatic Exchange. Upon such exchange of beneficial interests pursuant to this Section 2.6(e), the aggregate principal amount of the Global Notes shall be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, to reflect


 
-47- the relevant increase or decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note resulting from the applicable ex- change. The Restricted Global Note from which beneficial interests are transferred pursuant to an Automatic Ex- change shall be cancelled following the Automatic Exchange. (f) Retention of Written Communications. The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.1 or this Section 2.6. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable prior written notice to the Registrar. (g) Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Notes. To permit registrations of trans- fers and exchanges, the Company shall, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article II, execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and Global Notes at the Company’s and Registrar’s written request. No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require the Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax assessments or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.2, 2.6, 2.11, 2.13, 3.5, 5.6 or 9.5). The Company (and the Registrar) shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note (A) for a period beginning (1) 15 calendar days before the mailing of a notice of an offer to repurchase or redeem Notes and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or (2) 15 calendar days before an interest pay- ment date and ending on such interest payment date or (B) called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the person in whose name a Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to paragraph 2 of the forms of Notes attached hereto as Exhibits A, B and C) interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, including without limitation the transfer or exchange of such Note, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.1(f) shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.6(d), bear the applicable legend regarding transfer restrictions applicable to the Definitive Note set forth in Section 2.1(d). All Notes 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 Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. (h) No Obligation of the Trustee. (1) Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall have any responsi- bility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in, DTC or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of DTC or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with re- spect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than DTC) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or purchase) or the pay- ment of any amount or delivery of any Notes (or other security or property) under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders in respect of the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be DTC or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through DTC subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by DTC with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among DTC participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or


 
-48- evidence 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. Nei- ther the Trustee nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by DTC. SECTION 2.7.

(the “Company”). Upon transfer, the Notes would be registered in the name of the new beneficial owner as follows: Name: Address: Taxpayer ID Number: The undersigned represents and warrants to you that: 1. I am an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) and I am acquiring the Notes not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act. I have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risk of my investment in the Notes and I invest in or purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of my business. I am able to bear the economic risk of my investment. 2.

-53- ble 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 my property be at all times within my control and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws. The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Re- striction Termination Date. 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. 6. I understand and acknowledge that upon the issuance thereof, and until such time as the same is no longer required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act or state securities laws, the Notes that I acquire will be certificated Notes that will bear, and all certificates issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof will bear, a restrictive legend set forth in Section 2.1(d) of the Indenture. 7. I am an Affiliate of the Company. TRANSFEREE: BY: SECTION 2.11. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Company and the Trustee that such Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken 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 and the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected pur- chaser”), (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee and (d) provides an indemnity bond, as more fully described below; provided, however, if after the delivery of such replacement Note, a protected purchaser of the Note for which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment or registration such replaced Note, the Trustee and/or the Company shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note from the Person to whom it was is- sued and delivered or any Person taking therefrom, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Company or the Trustee in connection therewith. Such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the (i) Trustee to protect the Trustee and (ii) the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Pay- ing Agent and the Registrar, from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced, and, in the absence of notice to the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for any such mutilated Note or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and paya- ble, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.11, 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 counsel and of the Trustee) in connection therewith. Subject to the proviso in the initial paragraph of this Section 2.11, every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.11, in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractu- al obligation of the Company, any Guarantor (if applicable) and any other obligor upon the Notes, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all bene- fits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.


 
-54- The provisions of this Section 2.11 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 Notes. SECTION 2.12. Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those paid pursuant to Section 2.11 and those described in this Section 2.12 as not outstanding. A Note does not cease to be outstanding in the event the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; provided, however, that (i) for purposes of determining which are outstanding for consent or voting purposes hereunder, the provisions of Section 12.4 shall apply and (ii) in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in making a determination whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Notes are present at a meeting of Holders of Notes for quorum purposes or have consented to or voted in favor of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, amendment or modification hereunder, or relying upon any such quorum, consent or vote, only Notes which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be held by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company shall not be considered out- standing. If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.11 (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement pursuant to Section 2.11. 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 accrued interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (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 Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. SECTION 2.13. Temporary Notes. In the event that Definitive Notes are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form, and shall carry all rights, of De- finitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unrea- sonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the tempo- rary Notes 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 Notes, the Company shall exe- cute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issue Order, authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Notes representing an equal principal amount of Notes. Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of Definitive Notes. SECTION 2.14. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancella- tion. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and dispose of such Notes in accordance with its internal policies and customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act and the Trustee). If the Company or any Guarantor acquires any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfac- tion of the Indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for can- cellation pursuant to this Section 2.14. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has paid or deliv- ered to the Trustee for cancellation for any reason other than in connection with a transfer or exchange. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by DTC to the Trustee for can- cellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, re- deemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Notes Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Notes Custodian, to reflect such reduction.


 
-55- SECTION 2.15. Payment of Interest; Defaulted Interest. Interest on any Note 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 Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such payment at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3. Any interest on any Note 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, and such defaulted interest and (to the extent lawful) interest on such defaulted interest at the rate borne by the Notes (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) shall be paid by the Company, at its election, 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 Notes (or their respective predecessor Notes) 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 Note 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 Default- ed 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 Section 2.15(a). Thereupon the Company shall fix a record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which date shall be not more than 20 calendar days and not less than 15 calendar days prior to the Special Interest Payment Date and not less than 10 calendar days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of such Special Record Date, and in the name and at the ex- pense of the Company, the Trustee 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 calendar days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the pro- posed 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 Notes (or their respective predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the provisions in Sec- tion 2.15(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 Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Section 2.15(b), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.15, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon reg- istration of, transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note. SECTION 2.16. CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP and “ISIN” numbers in notices of redemption or purchase as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption or purchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or purchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such CUSIP and ISIN numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP and ISIN numbers.


 
-56- ARTICLE III COVENANTS SECTION 3.1. Payment of Notes. The Company shall promptly pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes and in this Indenture. Principal, pre- mium, if any, and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if by 11:00 a.m. Eastern time 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 Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. 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. Limitation on Indebtedness. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, Incur any In- debtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness); provided, however, that the Company and any of its Restricted Sub- sidiaries may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) if on the date of such Incurrence and after giv- ing pro forma effect thereto (including pro forma application of the proceeds thereof), the Leverage Ratio for the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries is less than 6.00 to 1.00; provided, further, that Non-Guarantors may not Incur Indebtedness if, after giving pro forma effect to such Incurrence (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), more than an aggregate of the greater of (a) $30.0 million and (b) 3.25% of Total Assets of Indebtedness of Non-Guarantors would be outstanding pursuant to this paragraph. (b) The first paragraph of this covenant shall not prohibit the Incurrence of the following Indebted- ness: (1) Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to any Credit Facility (including letters of credit or bank- ers’ acceptances issued or created under any Credit Facility), and any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof and Guarantees in respect of such Indebtedness in a maximum aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not exceeding the sum of (i) $405.0 million plus (ii) in the case of any refinancing of any Indebtedness permitted under this Section 3.2(b)(1) or any portion thereof, the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, accrued and unpaid interest, premiums and other costs and expenses Incurred in connection with such refinancing; (2) (i) Guarantees by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness or other ob- ligations of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary so long as the Incurrence of such Indebtedness or other obligation is not prohibited by the terms of this Indenture; (3) Indebtedness of the Company owing to and held by any Restricted Subsidiary or Indebt- edness of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; provid- ed, however, that: (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock or any other event which re- sults in any such Indebtedness being beneficially held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Com- pany or a Restricted Subsidiary;


 
-57- shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be; (4) Indebtedness represented by (i) the Notes (other than any Additional Notes), including any Guarantee thereof, (ii) any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clauses (1) and (3)) outstanding on the Issue Date, (iii) Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred in respect of any Indebtedness described in this clause or clauses (5) or (10) of this Section 3.2(b) or Incurred pursuant to Section 3.2(a), and (iv) Management Advances; (5) Indebtedness of (x) the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary Incurred or issued to fi- nance an acquisition or (y) Persons that are acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiaries or merged into or consolidated with the Company or any Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that such Indebtedness is in an aggregate amount not to exceed (i) $20.0 million at any time outstanding plus (ii) unlimited additional Indebtedness if after giving effect to such acquisition, merger or consolidation, either (i) the Company would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Leverage Ratio test set forth in Section 3.2(a); (ii) the Leverage Ratio of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries would not be greater than immediately prior to such acquisition, merger or consolidation; or (iii) such Indebtedness constitutes Acquired Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness In- curred in contemplation of the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was otherwise acquired by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary); provided, that in the case of this subclause (iii) that the only obligors with respect to such Indebtedness shall be those Persons who were obligors of such Indebtedness prior to such acquisition, merger or consolidation; (6) Hedging Obligations (excluding Hedging Obligations entered into for speculative pur- poses); (7) Indebtedness (i) represented by Capitalized Lease Obligations or Purchase Money Obli- gations, in an aggregate outstanding principal amount which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (7) and then outstanding, does not exceed the greater of (x) $20.0 million and (y) 2.25% of Total Assets at the time of Incurrence and any Refinanc- ing Indebtedness in respect thereof and (ii) arising out of Sale and Leaseback Transactions in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (x) $10.0 million and (y) 1.0% of Total Assets; (8) Indebtedness in respect of (i) workers’ compensation claims, self-insurance obligations, performance, indemnity, surety, judgment, appeal, advance payment, customs, value added or other tax or other guarantees or other similar bonds, instruments or obligations and completion guarantees and warran- ties provided by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or relating to liabilities, obligations or guarantees Incurred in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice, (ii) the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument drawn against insufficient funds in the or- dinary course of business or consistent with past practice; provided, however, that such Indebtedness is ex- tinguished within five Business Days of Incurrence; (iii) customer deposits and advance payments received in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice from customers for goods or services purchased in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice; (iv) letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances, guarantees or other similar instruments or obligations issued or relating to liabilities or obliga- tions Incurred in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice, and (v) any customary treasury, depositary, cash management, automatic clearinghouse arrangements, overdraft protections, cash pooling or netting or setting off arrangements or similar arrangements in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice;


 
-58- (9) Indebtedness arising from agreements providing for guarantees, indemnification, obliga- tions in respect of earn-outs or other adjustments of purchase price or, in each case, similar obligations, in each case, Incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business or assets or Person or any Capital Stock of a Subsidiary (other than Guarantees of Indebtedness Incurred by any Person acquiring or disposing of such business or assets or such Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such ac- quisition or disposition); provided that the maximum liability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiar- ies in respect of all such Indebtedness in connection with a disposition shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds, including the fair market value of non-cash proceeds (measured at the time received and without giving effect to any subsequent changes in value), actually received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such disposition; (10) Indebtedness in an aggregate outstanding principal amount which, when taken together with any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof and the principal amount of all other Indebtedness In- curred pursuant to this clause (10) and then outstanding, will not exceed 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company from the issuance or sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary) of its Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock, Designated Preferred Stock or an Excluded Contribution) or other- wise contributed to the equity (other than through the issuance of Disqualified Stock, Designated Preferred Stock or an Excluded Contribution) of the Company, in each case, subsequent to the Issue Date; provided, however, that (i) any such Net Cash Proceeds that are so received or contributed shall not increase the amount available for making Restricted Payments to the extent the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries Incur Indebtedness in reliance thereon and (ii) any Net Cash Proceeds that are so received or contributed shall be excluded for purposes of Incurring Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (10) to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds or cash have been applied to make Restricted Payments; (11) Indebtedness of Non-Guarantors in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (a) $20.0 million and (b) 2.25% of Total Assets at any time outstanding and any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof; (12) Indebtedness consisting of promissory notes issued by the Company or any of its Subsid- iaries to any current or former employee, director or consultant of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Parent Entity (or permitted transferees, assigns, estates, or heirs of such employee, director or consult- ant), to finance the purchase or redemption of Capital Stock of the Company or any Company that is per- mitted by Section 3.3; (13) Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries consisting of (i) the fi- nancing of insurance premiums or (ii) take-or-pay obligations contained in supply arrangements, in each case Incurred in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice; (14) Indebtedness in an aggregate outstanding principal amount which, when taken together with any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof and the principal amount of all other Indebtedness In- curred pursuant to this clause and then outstanding, will not exceed the greater of (a) $40.0 million and (b) 4.25% of Total Assets; and (15) Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent proceeds of such Indebtedness are deposited and used to defease the Notes as described in Sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 and 11.1 hereof. (c) For purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of any par- ticular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to and in compliance with, this Section 3.2: (1) in the event that all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in the first and second paragraphs of this covenant, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall classify, and may from time to time reclassify, all or any portion of such item of Indebtedness and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in any of the clauses of Section 3.2(a) or (b);


 
-59- (2) additionally, all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness may later be classified as hav- ing been Incurred pursuant to any type of Indebtedness described in one of the clauses of Section 3.2(a) or (b) so long as such Indebtedness is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to such provision at the time of reclas- sification; (3) all Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the Credit Agreement shall be deemed initially incurred on the Issue Date under Section 3.2(b)(1); (4) in the case of any refinancing of any Indebtedness, such Indebtedness shall not include the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses Incurred in connection with such refinancing; (5) Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments relating to, or Liens securing, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determina- tion of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included; (6) if obligations in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instru- ments are Incurred pursuant to any Credit Facility and are being treated as Incurred pursuant to clause (a), (b)(1), (b)(7), (b)(10), (b)(11) or (b)(14) of this Section 3.2 and the letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments relate to other Indebtedness, then such other Indebtedness shall not be included; (7) the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Company or a Restricted Subsidi- ary, or Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof; (8) Indebtedness permitted by this covenant need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this covenant permitting such Indebtedness; and (9) the amount of any indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (a) the accreted value thereof in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount and (b) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, or liquidation preference thereof, in the case of any other Indebtedness. Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock or the reclassification of commitments or ob- ligations not treated as Indebtedness due to a change in GAAP, will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebted- ness for purposes of this Section 3.2. If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Sub- sidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date (and, if such In- debtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 3.2, the Company, shall be in default of this Section 3.2). 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 debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; 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 (a) the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (b) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums (in-


 
-60- cluding tender premiums) and other costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with such refinancing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.2, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall not be deemed to be exceeded sole- ly 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. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebted- ness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebted- ness is subordinated to other Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be; provided that for purposes of this Indenture, (1) unsecured Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to Secured In- debtedness merely because it is unsecured and (2) senior Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral or is se- cured by different collateral or because it is guaranteed by different obligors. SECTION 3.3. Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indi- rectly, to: (1) declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on or in respect of the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s Capital Stock (including any such payment in connection with any merger, amalgamation or consolidation involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) except: (i) dividends or distributions payable in Capital Stock of the Company (other than Dis- qualified Stock) or in options, warrants or other rights to purchase such Capital Stock of the Com- pany; and (ii) dividends or distributions payable to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (and, in the case of any such Restricted Subsidiary making such dividend or distribution, to holders of its Capital Stock other than the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary on no more than a pro rata basis); (2) purchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire for value any Capital Stock of the Company or any Parent Entity of the Company held by Persons other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; (3) purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to scheduled maturity, scheduled repayment or scheduled sinking fund payment, any Subordinated Indebted- ness (other than (i) any such purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retire- ment in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case, due within one year of the date of purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement and (ii) any Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 3.2(b)(3)); or (4) make any Restricted Investment; (any such dividend, distribution, purchase, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, other acquisition, retire- ment or Restricted Investment referred to in clauses (1) through (4) are referred to herein as a “Restricted Payment”), if at the time the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary makes such Restricted Payment:


 
-61- (i) a Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would result immediately there- after therefrom); (ii) the Company is not able to Incur an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 3.2(a) after giving effect, on a pro forma basis, to such Restricted Payment; or (iii) the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments made subsequent to April 4, 2012 (and not returned or rescinded) (including Restricted Payments permitted by Section 3.3(b)(1) (without duplication) and (10), but excluding all other Restricted Payments permitted by Section 3.3(b)) would exceed the sum of (without duplication): (A) 100% of Consolidated EBITDA for the period (treated as one account- ing period) from April 4, 2012 to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter ending prior to the date of such Restricted Payment for which internal consolidated financial statements of the Company are available (or, in the case such Consolidated EBITDA is a deficit, mi- nus 100% of such deficit); less 1.4 times Consolidated Interest Expense for the same pe- riod; (B) 100% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds, and the fair market value of property or assets or marketable securities, received by the Company from the issue or sale of its Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock or Designated Preferred Stock) subsequent to April 4, 2012 or otherwise contributed to the equity (other than through the issuance of Disqualified Stock or Designated Preferred Stock) of the Company subse- quent to April 4, 2012 (other than (x) Net Cash Proceeds or property or assets or market- able securities received from an issuance or sale of such Capital Stock to a Restricted Subsidiary or an employee stock ownership plan or trust established by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for the benefit of its employees to the extent funded by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, (y) Net Cash Proceeds or property or assets or marketable securities to the extent that any Restricted Payment has been made from such proceeds in reliance on Section 3.3(b)(6) and (z) Excluded Contributions); (C) 100% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds, and the fair market value of property or assets or marketable securities, received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the issuance or sale (other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidi- ary of the Company or an employee stock ownership plan or trust established by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for the benefit of their employees to the ex- tent funded by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary) by the Company or any Re- stricted Subsidiary subsequent to April 4, 2012 of any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Designated Preferred Stock that has been converted into or exchanged for Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock or Designated Preferred Stock) plus, without duplication, the amount of any cash, and the fair market value of property or assets or marketable securities, received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary upon such conversion or exchange; (D) 100% of the aggregate amount received in cash and the fair market val- ue, as determined in good faith by the Company, of marketable securities or other proper- ty received by means of: (a) the sale or other disposition (other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) of Restricted Investments made by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries and repurchases and redemptions of such Restricted Investments from the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries and repayments of loans or advances, and releases of guarantees, which constitute Restricted Investments by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case after April 4, 2012 or (ii) the sale (other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) of the stock of an Unrestricted Subsidiary or a distribution from an Unrestricted Subsidiary (other than to the extent of the amount of the Investment that constituted a Permitted Investment which will instead increase the amount available

-65- The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the fair market value on the date of such Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be paid, transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any cash Restricted Payment shall be its face amount, and the fair market value of any non-cash Restricted Payment, property or assets other than cash shall be determined conclusively by the Company acting in good faith. SECTION 3.4. Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: (1) pay dividends or make any other distributions in cash or otherwise on its Capital Stock or pay any Indebtedness or other obligations owed to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; (2) make any loans or advances to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; or (3) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Company or any Restricted Sub- sidiary; provided that (x) the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to divi- dends or liquidating distributions being paid on common stock and (y) the subordination of (including the applica- tion of any standstill requirements to) loans or advances made to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed to constitute such an en- cumbrance or restriction. (b) The provisions of Section 3.4(a) shall not prohibit: (1) any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to (i) any Credit Facility, or (ii) any other agreement or instrument, in each case, in effect at or entered into on the Issue Date; (2) this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees; (3) any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement or instrument of a Person or re- lating to any Capital Stock or Indebtedness of a Person, entered into on or before the date on which such Person was acquired by or merged, amalgamated, consolidated or otherwise combined with or into the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, or was designated as a Restricted Subsidiary or on which such agreement or instrument is assumed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with an acquisition of assets (other than Capital Stock or Indebtedness Incurred as consideration in, or to provide all or any portion of the funds utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by the Company or was merged, amalgamated, consolidated or otherwise combined with or into the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or entered into in contemplation of or in connection with such transaction) and outstanding on such date; provided that, for the purposes of this clause (3), if another Person is the Successor Company, any Subsidi- ary thereof or agreement or instrument of such Person or any such Subsidiary shall be deemed acquired or assumed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary when such Person becomes the Successor Compa- ny; (4) any encumbrance or restriction: (i) that restricts in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is subject to a lease, license or similar contract or agreement, or the assignment or transfer of any lease, license or other contract or agreement; (ii) contained in mortgages, pledges, charges or other security agreements permitted under this Indenture or securing In- debtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary permitted under this Indenture to the extent such en- cumbrances or restrictions restrict the transfer or encumbrance of the property or assets subject to such mortgages, pledges, charges or other security agreements; or (iii) pursuant to customary provisions restrict-


 
-66- ing dispositions of real property interests set forth in any reciprocal easement agreements of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; (5) any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to Purchase Money Obligations and Capitalized Lease Obligations permitted under this Indenture, in each case, that impose encumbrances or restrictions on the property so acquired; (6) any encumbrance or restriction imposed pursuant to an agreement entered into for the di- rect or indirect sale or disposition to a Person of all or substantially all the Capital Stock or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (or the property or assets that are subject to such restriction) pend- ing the closing of such sale or disposition; (7) customary provisions in leases, licenses, shareholder agreements, joint venture agree- ments and other similar agreements, organizational documents and instruments; (8) encumbrances or restrictions arising or existing by reason of applicable law or any appli- cable rule, regulation or order, or required by any regulatory authority; (9) any encumbrance or restriction on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by cus- tomers under agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice; (10) any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to Hedging Obligations; (11) other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of Foreign Subsidiaries permit- ted to be Incurred or issued subsequent to the Issue Date pursuant Section 3.2 that impose restrictions sole- ly on the Foreign Subsidiaries party thereto or their Subsidiaries; (12) any encumbrance or restriction arising pursuant to an agreement or instrument (which if it relates to any Indebtedness, shall only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted to be Incurred pur- suant to Section 3.2) if the encumbrances and restrictions contained in any such agreement or instrument taken as a whole are not materially less favorable to the Holders than (i) the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the Credit Agreement, together with the security documents associated therewith as in effect on the Issue Date or (ii) either (A) the Company determines at the time of entry into such agreement or in- strument that such encumbrances or restrictions will not adversely affect, in any material respect, the Com- pany’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes or (B) such encumbrance or restriction applies only during the continuance of a default relating to such agreement or instrument; (13) any encumbrance or restriction existing by reason of any lien permitted under Sec- tion 3.6; or (14) any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement or instrument effecting a refi- nancing of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to, or that otherwise refinances, an agreement or instrument re- ferred to in clauses (1) to (13) of this Section 3.4(b) or this clause (14) (an “Initial Agreement”) or con- tained in any amendment, supplement or other modification to an agreement referred to in clauses (1) to (13) of this Section 3.4(b) or this clause (14); provided, however, that the encumbrances and restrictions with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary contained in any such agreement or instrument are no less favor- able in any material respect to the Holders taken as a whole than the encumbrances and restrictions con- tained in the Initial Agreement or Initial Agreements to which such refinancing or amendment, supplement or other modification relates (as determined in good faith by the Company). SECTION 3.5. Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any As- set Disposition unless:


 
-67- (1) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration (including by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contin- gent 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, of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Disposition (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if such Asset Disposition is a Permitted Asset Swap); (2) in any such Asset Disposition, or series of related Asset Dispositions (except to the extent the Asset Disposition is a Permitted Asset Swap), at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset Dispo- sition (including by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise), together with all other Asset Dispositions since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; and (3) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is ap- plied: (i) to the extent the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, elects (or is required by the terms of any Indebtedness), (A) to prepay, repay or purchase any Indebted- ness of a Non-Guarantor (in each case, other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or any Re- stricted Subsidiary) or any Secured Indebtedness; including Indebtedness under the Credit Agree- ment (or any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof) within 365 days from the later of (a) the date of such Asset Disposition and (b) the receipt of such Net Available Cash; provided, however, that, in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (i), the Company or Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related commitment (if any) to be reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased; or (B) to prepay, repay or purchase Pari Passu Indebtedness; provided further that, to the extent the Company redeems, repays or repurchases Pari Passu Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (B), the Company shall equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes as provided under Section 5.7, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the proce- dures set forth below for an Asset Disposition Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid; and (ii) to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, to invest in or commit to invest 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 Restrict- ed Subsidiary) within 365 days from the later of (A) the date of such Asset Disposition and (B) the receipt of such Net Available Cash; provided, however, that any such reinvestment in Ad- ditional Assets made pursuant to a definitive binding agreement or a commitment approved by the Board of Directors of the Company that is executed or approved within such time will satisfy this requirement, so long as such investment is consummated within 270 days of such 365th day; provided that, pending the final application of the amount of any such Net Available Cash in accordance with clause (i) or clause (ii) above, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness or otherwise use such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. (b) The amount of any Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions that is not applied or invested or committed to be applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds” under this Indenture. On the 366th day after an Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash, if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds under this Indenture exceeds $15.0 million, the Company will within 10 Business Days be required to make an offer (“Asset Disposition Offer”) to all Holders of Notes issued under such indenture and, to the extent the Company elects, to all holders of other outstanding Pari Passu Indebted- ness, to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Asset Disposition Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in respect of the Notes


 
-68- in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, and, with respect to the Notes, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Compa- ny will deliver notice of such Asset Disposition Offer electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes at the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Asset Disposition and of- fering to repurchase the Notes for the specified purchase price on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Available Cash from an Asset Disposition by making an Asset Disposition Offer with respect to all Net Available Cash prior to the expiration of the relevant 365 days (or such longer period provided above) or with respect to any unapplied Excess Proceeds. (c) To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not prohibited in this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of the Notes surrendered in any Asset Disposition Offer by Holders and other Pari Passu Indebtedness sur- rendered by holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds shall be allocated among the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggre- gate principal amount of tendered Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness; provided that no Notes or other Pari Passu Indebtedness will be selected and purchased in an unauthorized denomination. Upon completion of any Asset Dis- position Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. Additionally, the Company may, at its option, make an Asset Disposition Offer using proceeds from any Asset Disposition at any time after the consummation of such Asset Disposition. Upon consummation or expiration of any Asset Disposition Offer, any remaining Net Available Cash shall not be deemed Excess Proceeds and the Company may use such Net Available Cash for any purpose not prohibited by the Indenture. (d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 3.5, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Available Cash of any Asset Disposition by a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Disposition”) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Available Cash so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 3.5, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all commercially reasonable actions available under the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such re- patriation of any such affected Net Available Cash is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatri- ation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Available Cash will be promptly (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional Taxes payable or reserved against a result thereof) in compliance with this Section 3.5; and (ii) to the extent that the Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Available Cash of any Foreign Disposition would have an adverse Tax consequence (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes, but is not limited to, any repatriation whereby doing so the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary, or any of their respective affiliates and/or equity owners would incur a tax liability, including as a result of a dividend or deemed dividend, or a withholding tax, but taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit received in connection with such repatriation) with respect to such Net Availa- ble Cash, the Net Available Cash so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary. (e) To the extent that any portion of Net Available Cash payable in respect of the Notes is denomi- nated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the amount thereof payable in respect of the Notes shall not exceed the net amount of funds in U.S. dollars that is actually received by the Company upon converting such portion into U.S. dollars. (f) For the purposes of Section 3.5(a)(2) hereof, the following will be deemed to be cash:


 
-69- (1) the assumption by the transferee of Indebtedness or other liabilities contingent or other- wise of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or a Guarantor) and the release of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on such In- debtedness or other liability in connection with such Asset Disposition; (2) securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidi- ary of the Company from the transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Disposition; (3) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Disposition, to the extent that the Company and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any Guarantee of payment of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition; (4) consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Company (other than Subordinated In- debtedness) received after the Issue Date from Persons who are not the Company or any Restricted Subsid- iary; and (5) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Dispositions having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this covenant that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (i) $20.0 million and (ii) 2.25% of Total Assets (with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value). (g) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws, rules and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 3.5. To the extent that the provi- sions of any securities laws, rules or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof. (h) The provisions of this Indenture relative to the Company’s obligation to make an offer to repur- chase the Notes as a result of an Asset Disposition may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Hold- ers of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. SECTION 3.6. Limitation on Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) (each, an “Initial Lien”) that secures obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee, on any asset or property of the Company or any Guarantor, unless: (1) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and related Guaran- tees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Liens; or (2) in all other cases, the Notes or the Guarantees are equally and ratably secured. Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to the preceding sentence shall pro- vide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien. With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebt- edness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original


 
-70- issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness. SECTION 3.7. Limitation on Guarantees. (a) The Company (a) shall not permit any of its Wholly-Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly-Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiaries guarantee, or are a co-issuer of, other capital markets debt securities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or guarantee all or a portion of, or are a co-borrower under, the Credit Agreement), other than a Guarantor, to guarantee the payment of any capital markets debt securities or Indebtedness under any Credit Facility with a bank or other financial institution, in each case of the Company or any other Guar- antor unless: (1) such Restricted Subsidiary within 60 days executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for a senior Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor, if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee; and (2) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Sub- sidiary under its Guarantee until payment in full of Obligations under this Indenture. provided that this Section 3.7 shall not be applicable (i) to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary, or (ii) in the event that the Guarantee of the Company’s obliga- tions under the Notes or this Indenture by such Subsidiary would not be permitted under applicable law. (b) The Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise re- quired to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor, in which case, such Subsidiary shall not be required to comply with the 60-day period described in Section 3.7(a). (c) If any Guarantor becomes an Immaterial Subsidiary, the Company shall have the right, by execu- tion and delivery of a supplemental indenture to the Trustee, to cause such Immaterial Subsidiary to cease to be a Guarantor, subject to the requirement described in the first paragraph above that such Subsidiary shall be required to become a Guarantor if it ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary (except that if such Subsidiary has been properly designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary it shall not be so required to become a Guarantor or execute a supplemental indenture); provided, further, that such Immaterial Subsidiary shall not be permitted to Guarantee the Credit Agree- ment or capital market debt securities of the Company or other Guarantors, unless it again becomes a Guarantor. SECTION 3.8. Limitation on Affiliate Transactions. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or in- directly, enter into or conduct any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate value in excess of $10.0 million unless: (1) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction taken as a whole are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction or the execution of the agreement providing for such transaction in arm’s length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate; and


 
-71- (2) in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate value in excess of $20.0 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors. Any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in clause (2) of this Sec- tion 3.8(a) if such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors, if any. (b) The provisions of clause (a) of this Section 3.8 above shall not apply to: (1) any Restricted Payment permitted to be made pursuant to Section 3.3, or any Permitted Investment; (2) any issuance or sale of Capital Stock, options, other equity-related interests or other secu- rities, or other payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, or entering into, or maintenance of, any employment, consulting, collective bargaining or benefit plan, pro- gram, agreement or arrangement, related trust or other similar agreement and other compensation arrange- ments, options, warrants or other rights to purchase Capital Stock of the Company, any Restricted Subsidi- ary or any Parent Entity, restricted stock plans, long-term incentive plans, stock appreciation rights plans, participation plans or similar employee benefits or consultants’ plans (including valuation, health, insur- ance, deferred compensation, severance, retirement, savings or similar plans, programs or arrangements) or indemnities provided on behalf of officers, employees, directors or consultants approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, in each case in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice; (3) any Management Advances and any waiver or transaction with respect thereto; (4) any transaction between or among the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary (or entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction), or between or among Restricted Sub- sidiaries; (5) the payment of compensation, reasonable fees and reimbursement of expenses to, and customary indemnities (including under customary insurance policies) and employee benefit and pension expenses provided on behalf of, directors, officers, consultants or employees of the Company or any Re- stricted Subsidiary (whether directly or indirectly and including through any Person owned or controlled by any of such directors, officers or employees); (6) the entry into and performance of obligations of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under the terms of any transaction arising out of, and any payments pursuant to or for purposes of funding, any agreement or instrument in effect as of or on the Issue Date, as these agreements and in- struments may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed or refinanced from time to time in accordance with the other terms of this covenant or to the extent not more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect; (7) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or ser- vices, in each case in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice, which are fair to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors or the senior management of the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary, or are on terms no less favor- able than those that could reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party; (8) any transaction between or among the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Af- filiate of the Company or an Associate or similar entity that would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Af- filiate, Associate or similar entity; (9) issuances or sales of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock or Designated Preferred Stock) of the Company or options, warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock and the granting

SECTION 3.9. Change of Control. (a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company has previously or concurrently delivered a redemption notice with respect to all of the outstanding Notes as set forth under Section 5.7(a) or Section 5.7(d), the Company shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus ac- crued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the date of repurchase, subject to the right of Holders of the Notes of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will deliver notice of such Change of Control Offer electronically or by first class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes at the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, with the following information:


 
-73- (1) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.9, and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment by the Company; (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which will be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); (3) that any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue inter- est; (4) that unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest, on the Change of Control Payment Date; (5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such Notes; provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day prior to the expiration date of the Change of Control Offer, a tele- gram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased; (7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes and such new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to at least $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in ex- cess of $2,000; (8) if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control; and (9) the other instructions, as determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 3.9, that a Holder must follow. The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of the Notes tendered the Change of Control Pay- ment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 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. If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related in- terest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid on the relevant interest payment date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date. (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, (1) accept for payment all Notes issued by it or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer,


 
-74- (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Pay- ment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered, and (3) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted to- gether with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been ten- dered to and purchased by the Company. (c) The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if (x) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compli- ance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (y) a notice of redemption of all outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to Section 5.7 hereof unless and until there is a default in the payment of the redemption price on the applicable redemption date or the redemption is not consummated due to the failure of a condition precedent contained in the applicable redemption notice to be satisfied. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.9, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of Control Offer. (e) [Reserved] (f) While the Notes are in global form and the Company makes an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, a Holder may exercise its option to elect for the purchase of the Notes through the facilities of DTC, subject to its rules and regulations. (g) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws, rules and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regula- tions are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws, rules or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof. SECTION 3.10. Reports. (a) Notwithstanding that the Company may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or otherwise report on an annual and quarterly basis on forms provided for such annual and quarterly reporting pursuant to rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, from and after the Issue Date, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee, within 15 days after the time periods specified below: (1) within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, all financial information (including audit- ed financial statements) that would be required to be contained in an annual report on Form 10-K, or any successor or comparable form, filed with the SEC, including a “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations” and a report on the annual financial statements by the Com- pany’s independent registered public accounting firm; (2) within 45 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, all financial information that would be required to be contained in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q, including (A) “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and (B) audited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, or any successor or comparable form, filed with the SEC; and (3) promptly after the occurrence of any of the following events, all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K or any successor or comparable form (if the Com- pany had been a reporting company under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act); provided, that the foregoing shall not obligate the Company to (i) make available any information otherwise required to be included on


 
-75- a Form 8-K regarding the occurrence of any such events if the Company determines in its good faith judg- ment that such event that would otherwise be required to be disclosed is not material to the Holders of the Notes or the business, assets, operations, financial positions or prospects of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole or (ii) make available copies of any agreements, financial statements or other items that would be required to be filed as exhibits to a current report on Form 8-K except for (x) material Indebtedness and (y) historical and pro forma financial statements to the extent reasonably available: (A) the entry into or termination of material agreements; (B) significant acquisitions or dispositions; (C) the sale of equity securities; (D) bankruptcy; (E) cross-default under direct material financial obligations; (F) a change in the Company’s certifying independent auditor; (G) the appointment or departure of directors or executive officers; (H) non-reliance on previously issued financial statements; and (F) change of control transactions, in each case, in a manner that complies in all material respects with the requirements specified in such form, except as described above or below and subject to exceptions consistent with the presentation of information in the Offering Memorandum; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required (i) comply with Regulation G under the Exchange Act or Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K with respect to any “non-GAAP” financial information contained therein, (ii) provide any information that is not otherwise similar to information currently included in the Offering Memorandum or (iii) provide the type of information contemplated by Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X with respect to separate financial statements for Guarantors or any financial statements for unconsolidated Subsidiaries or 50% or less owned Persons contemplated by Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X or any schedules required by Regulation S-X, or in each case any successor provisions. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be re- quired to (i) comply with Sections 302, 906 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, or (ii) other- wise furnish any information, certificates or reports required by Items 307 or 308 of Regulation S-K. To the extent any such information is not so filed or furnished, as applicable, within the time periods specified above and such information is subsequently filed or furnished, as applicable, the Company will be deemed to have satisfied its obli- gations with respect thereto at such time and any Default with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been cured; provided that such cure shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders under Section 6.1 hereof if Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes have declared the principal, premium, if any, inter- est and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately and such declaration shall not have been rescinded or cancelled prior to such cure. In addition, to the extent not satisfied by the foregoing, the Company shall agree that, for so long as any Notes are outstanding, it shall furnish to Holders and to securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pur- suant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. (b) At any time that any of the Company’s Subsidiaries are Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the annu- al and quarterly financial information required by the preceding paragraph will include a reasonably detailed presen- tation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company.


 
-76- (c) Substantially concurrently with the furnishing or making such information available to the Trus- tee pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company shall also post copies of such information re- quired by immediately preceding paragraph on a website (which may be nonpublic and may be maintained by the Company or a third party) to which access will be given to the Holders, prospective investors in the Notes (which prospective investors shall be limited to “qualified institutional buyers” within the meaning of Rule 144A of the Securities Act or non-U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) that certify their status as such to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company), and securities analysts and market making financial institutions that are reasonably satisfactory to the Company. (d) The Company shall also hold quarterly conference calls for the Holders of Notes to discuss fi- nancial information for the previous quarter (it being understood that such quarterly conference call may be the same conference call as with the Company’s (or as applicable, any of any Parent Entity’s) equity investors and analysts). The conference call will be following the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company and not later than 10 Busi- ness Days from the time that the Company distributes the financial information as set forth in clause (a) above. No fewer than two days prior to the conference call, the Company shall issue a press release announcing the time and date of such conference call and providing instructions for Holders, securities analysts and prospective investors to obtain access to such call; provided, however, that such press release can be distributed solely to certified users of the website described in clause (c) above. (e) The Company may satisfy its obligations pursuant to this Section 3.10 with respect to financial information relating to the Company by furnishing financial information relating to a Parent Entity; provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to a Parent Entity, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Company and its Re- stricted Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand. For the avoidance of doubt, the consolidating infor- mation referred to in the proviso in the preceding sentence need not be audited. (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3.10, if the Company or any Parent Entity of the Company has furnished to the Holders of Notes or filed with the SEC the reports described in the preceding paragraphs with respect to the Company or any Parent Entity, the Company shall be deemed to be in compliance with the provisions of this Section 3.10. SECTION 3.11. Future Guarantors. (a) If on or after the Issue Date (1) a Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary) that is not a Guarantor Guarantees the Credit Agreement, or (2) the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates a Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Immate- rial Subsidiary) and such Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary Guarantees the Credit Agreement, then, in each case, the Company shall cause such Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary to become a Guarantor and execute and deliver (within five Business Days of guaranteeing the Credit Agreement or becoming a Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary, as the case may be) to the Trustee a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, pursuant to which such Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary shall uncondition- ally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis with the other Guarantors, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest, in respect of the Notes on a senior basis and all other obligations under this Indenture. (b) The Company shall not permit any Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary), directly or indirectly, to Guarantee the Credit Agreement unless such Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary (i) is a Guarantor or (ii) within five Business Days executes and delivers to the Trus- tee a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, pursuant to which such Wholly Owned Restricted Domestic Subsidiary shall unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis with the other Guaran- tors, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest in respect of the Notes on a senior basis and all other obligations under this Indenture. (c) Each Guarantee shall be released in accordance with Article X.


 
-77- SECTION 3.12. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain an office or agency where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for pay- ment, where, if applicable, the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The corporate trust office of the Trustee, which initially shall be located at Wilmington Trust, National Association, 246 Goose Lane, Suite 105, Guilford, Connecticut, Attention: Townsquare Media, Inc. Administrator, 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 thereof, such presentations and surrenders 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 and surrenders. The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind any such designa- tion. 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 3.13. Corporate Existence. Except as otherwise provided in this Article III, Article IV and Section 10.2(b), 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 the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each Restricted Subsidiary and the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and each Re- stricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise or the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of any Restricted Subsidiary if the respective Board of Directors or, with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Significant Subsidiary (or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that taken together would not be a Significant Subsidiary), senior management of the Company determines 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 3.14. Payment of Taxes. The Company shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or dis- charged, before the same shall become delinquent, all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any 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 the amount, applicability or validity of which 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 or where the failure to effect such payment will not be disadvantageous to the Holders. SECTION 3.15. [Reserved]. SECTION 3.16. Compliance Certificate. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days af- ter the end of each fiscal year of the Company an Officer’s Certificate, one of the signers of which shall be the prin- cipal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company, stating that in the course of the performance by the signer of his or her duties as an Officer of the Company he or she would normally have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default and whether or not the signer knows of any Default or Event of Default that occurred during the previous fiscal year; provided that no such Officer’s Certificate shall be required for any fiscal year ended prior to the Issue Date. If such Officer does have such knowledge, the certificate shall de- scribe the Default or Event of Default, its status and the action the Company is taking or proposes to take with re- spect thereto. SECTION 3.17. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee or as necessary to comply with future developments or requirements, 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 Inden- ture.


 
-78- SECTION 3.18. Conduct of Business. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any businesses other than any business conducted or proposed to be conducted by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on the Issue Date or any business that is similar, reasonably related, inci- dental or ancillary thereto or any reasonable extension thereof. SECTION 3.19. Statement by Officers as to Default. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, an Officer’s 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. SECTION 3.20. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. The Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Re- stricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments as described in Section 3.3 herein or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Company may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesig- nation would not cause a Default. Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complies with the preced- ing conditions and was permitted by Section 3.3 herein. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidi- ary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Re- stricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date by Section 3.2 herein, the Company will be in default of such covenant. The Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Sub- sidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 3.2 herein, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. Any such designation by the Company shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complies with the preceding conditions. SECTION 3.21. Suspension of Certain Covenants on Achievement of Investment Grade Status. Fol- lowing the first day the Notes have achieved Investment Grade Status and no Default or Event of Default has oc- curred and is continuing under this Indenture, the beginning on that day and ending on a Reversion Date (such peri- od a “Suspension Period”), the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.7, 3.8 and 4.1(a)(3). On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified as hav- ing been Incurred pursuant to Section 3.2(a) or one of the clauses of Section 3.2(b) (to the extent such Indebtedness would be permitted to be Incurred thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to the Indebtedness Incurred prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness would not be so permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Sections 3.2(a) or (b), such Indebtedness will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 3.2(b)(5)(iii). Calcula- tions made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 3.3 will be made as though Section 3.3 had been in effect since the Issue Date and throughout the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 3.3(a). As described above, however, no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to have occurred as a result of the Reversion Date occurring on the basis of any actions taken or the continuance of any circumstances resulting from actions taken or the performance of obligations under


 
-79- agreements entered into by the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period (other than agreements to take actions after the Reversion Date that would not be permitted outside of the Suspension Peri- od entered into in contemplation of the Reversion Date). During the Suspension Period, no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Company, in an Officer’s Certificate, shall provide the Trustee notice of any Covenant Suspension or Reversion Date. The Trustee will have no obligation to (i) independently determine or verify if such events have occurred or (ii) make any determination regarding the impact of actions taken during the Suspension Period on the Company’s future compliance with its covenants. In addition, the Trustee shall have no duty to monitor the ratings of the Notes, shall not be deemed to have any knowledge of the ratings of the Notes and shall have no duty to notify Holders if the Notes achieve Investment Grade Status or if the Reversion Date occurs. SECTION 3.22. Limitation on Activities of License Subsidiaries. So long as a License Subsidiary does not Guarantee the Notes, such License Subsidiary shall not (i) incur any Indebtedness or (ii) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens upon any of its property, assets, income or profits, whether now owned or hereafter ac- quired, except Permitted Liens.

ARTICLE V REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES SECTION 5.1. Notices to Trustee.

-81- (2) the redemption date; (3) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed; and (4) the redemption price. Any optional redemption referenced in such Officer’s Certificate may be cancelled by the Company at any time prior to notice of redemption being sent to any Holder and thereafter shall be null and void. SECTION 5.2. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 5.7 or purchased in an Asset Disposition Offer pursuant to Section 3.5 or a redemption pursuant to Section 5.9, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption or purchase (a) if the Notes are in global form, on a pro rata basis or by lot or such similar method in accordance with the procedures of DTC and (b) if the Notes are in definitive form, on a pro rata basis (subject to adjustments to maintain the authorized Notes denomination requirements) except: (1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the re- quirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or (2) if otherwise required by law. No Notes in an unauthorized denomination or of $2,000 in aggregate principal amount or less shall be re- deemed in part. In the event of partial redemption, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased will be select- ed, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption or pur- chase date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase. The Trustee will promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000; ex- cept that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preced- ing sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to por- tions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. SECTION 5.3. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemp- tion date, the Company will send or cause to be sent, by electronic delivery or by first class mail postage prepaid, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles VIII or XI hereof. The notice will identify the Notes (including the CUSIP or ISIN number) to be redeemed and will state: (1) the redemption date; (2) the redemption price; (3) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in prin- cipal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original Note; (4) the name and address of the Paying Agent; (5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

At Company’s request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its ex- pense; provided, however, that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date (or such shorter period as the Trustee may agree but in no event less than 30 days), an Officer’s Certificate re- questing that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a corporate transaction (including but not limited to an Equity Offering, an incurrence of Indebtedness or a Change of Control) may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion thereof and any such redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be sub- ject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related transaction. If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be de- layed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed. In addition, 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 may be performed by another Person. SECTION 5.4. [Reserved] SECTION 5.5. Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the re- demption or purchase date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest, on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 3.1 hereof. SECTION 5.6. Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, the Trustee will authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased por- tion of the Note surrendered; provided, that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased in the manner described under Sections 5.1 through 5.6. (c) Except pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 5.7, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to April 1, 2018. (d) At any time and from time to time on or after April 1, 2018, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the Notes Register at the redemption prices (ex- pressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth in the table below, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 1 of each of the years indicated in the table below: Period Percentage 2018 ................................................................................................ 104.875% 2019 ................................................................................................ 103.250% 2020 ................................................................................................ 101.625% 2021 and thereafter ......................................................................... 100.000% (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any tender offer for the Notes, including a Change of Control Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Company, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Company, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party shall have the right upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appear- ing in the Notes Register, given not more than 30 days following such purchase date to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to but not including, the date of such redemption. (f) Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to ac- crue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date.

The Company is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes; provided however, that under certain circumstances, the Com- pany may be required to offer to purchase Notes under Section 3.5 and Section 3.9. The Company may at any time and from time to time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise. ARTICLE VI DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES SECTION 6.1. Events of Default. (a) Each of the following is an “Event of Default”: (1) default in any payment of interest on any Note when due and payable, continued for 30 days; (2) default in the payment of the principal amount of or premium, if any, on any Note issued under this Indenture when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, upon declaration or otherwise; (3) failure to comply with the Company’s agreements or obligations contained in this Indenture for 60 days after written notice by the Trustee on behalf of the Holders or by the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes; (4) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is Guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date hereof, which default: (A) is caused by a failure to pay principal of such Indebtedness, at its stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods provided in such In- debtedness); or (B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its stated final maturity; and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates to $30.0 million or more; (5) failure by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Compa- ny and its Restricted Subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), to pay final judg- ments aggregating in excess of $30.0 million other than any judgments covered by indemnities provided by, or insurance policies issued by, reputable and creditworthy issuers, which final judgments remain unpaid, undischarged and unstayed for a period of more than 60 days after such judgment becomes final, and in the event such judgment is covered by insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or decree which is not promptly stayed;


 
-85- (6) any Note Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect, other than (x) in ac- cordance with the terms of this Indenture, (y) a Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations un- der its Note Guarantee, other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or upon release of such Note Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture or (z) in connection with the bankruptcy of a Guarantor, so long as the aggregate assets of such Guarantor and any other Guarantor whose Note Guarantee ceased or ceases to be in full force as a result of a bankruptcy as less than $2.0 million; (7) the Company or any Guarantor that is Significant Subsidiary or any group of Guarantors that together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: (A) commences a voluntary case or proceeding; (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding; (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for substantially all of its property; (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (E) consents to or acquiesces in the institution of a bankruptcy or an insol- vency proceeding against it; or (F) takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insol- vency; (8) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (A) is for relief against the Company or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Guarantors that, taken together as of the latest audited consol- idated financial statements for the Company, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in an involuntary case; (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company, any Guarantor that is a Signifi- cant Subsidiary or any group of Guarantors that, taken together as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Company, would constitute a Significant Sub- sidiary, for substantially all of its property; (C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company, any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Guarantors that, taken together as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Company, would constitute a Sig- nificant Subsidiary; or (D) or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order, decree or relief remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days. (b) If a Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with an- other default (the “Initial Default”) occurs, then at the time such Initial Default is cured, such Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another default that resulted solely because of that Initial Default shall also be cured without any further action.


 
-86- (c) Any Default or Event of Default for the failure to comply with the time periods prescribed in Sec- tion 3.10 hereof or otherwise to deliver any notice or certificate pursuant to any other provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to be cured upon the delivery of any such report required by such provision or such notice or certif- icate, as applicable, even though such delivery is not within the prescribed period specified in this Indenture. SECTION 6.2. Acceleration. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.1(a)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall (subject to the Trustee’s rights under Section 6.5), declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be immediately due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable immediately. In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (4) of Section 6.1(a), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 30 days after such Event of Default arose: (1) (x) the Indebtedness that gave rise to such Event of Default shall have been dis- charged in full; or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or (z) if the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured; and (2) (a) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and (b) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium or interest, on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived. If an Event of Default described in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.1(a) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium and accrued and unpaid interest, on all Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. SECTION 6.3. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pur- sue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes 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 aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all of the Holders, (a) waive, by their consent (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or ex- change offer for, Notes), an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except (i) a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, on a Note 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 and (b) rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if (1) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, (2) all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, interest that has be- come due solely because of the acceleration, (3) to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest, premium, if any, and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise than by


 
-87- such declaration of acceleration, has been paid, (4) the Company has paid the Trustee its compensation and reim- bursed the Trustee for its reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances and (5) in the event of the cure or waiv- er of an Event of Default of the type described in clause (4) of Section 6.1(a), the Trustee shall have received an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such Event of Default has been cured or waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 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 outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direc- tion that conflicts with law or this Indenture or the Notes or, subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.2, that the Trustee deter- mines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provid- ed, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any such action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfacto- ry to it against all fees, losses and expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses) caused by taking or not taking such action. SECTION 6.6. Limitation on Suits. Subject to Section 6.7, a Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: (1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing; (2) Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested in writing the Trustee to pursue the remedy; (3) such Holders have offered in writing the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the written request and the offer of security or indemnity; and (5) Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a written direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders). SECTION 6.7. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 6.6), the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed or pro- vided for in the Notes, 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 clauses (1) or (2) of Section 6.1(a) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an ex- press trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid in- terest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.7. SECTION 6.9. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and oth- er papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel)


 
-88- and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its Subsidiaries or its or their respec- tive creditors or properties and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may be entitled and empowered to participate as a member of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodi- an in any such judicial 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 compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7. No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. SECTION 6.10. Priorities. (a) If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due to it under Section 7.7; SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal of, or premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and pay- able on the Notes for principal of, or premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and THIRD: to the Company, or to the extent the Trustee collects any amount for any Guarantor, to such Guarantor. (b) The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Company shall send or cause to be sent 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 discre- tion 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 liti- gant. This Section 6.11 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 Notes. ARTICLE VII TRUSTEE SECTION 7.1. Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. (b) 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


 
-89- (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, opinions or orders furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifical- ly required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such certificates and opinions to de- termine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). (c) 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 7.1; (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Of- ficer unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; (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; and (4) No provision of this Indenture or the Notes shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or there- under or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that re- payment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. (d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to para- graphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.1. (e) 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. (f) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. (g) 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 7.1. SECTION 7.2. Rights of Trustee. Subject to Section 7.1: (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely on and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order or other paper or document (whether in its original or facsimile form) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stat- ed in the document. The Trustee shall receive and retain financial reports and statements of the Company as provid- ed herein, but shall have no duty to review or analyze such reports or statements to determine compliance with cov- enants or other obligations of the Company. (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate and/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 Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. (c) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts and powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly by or through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.


 
-90- (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it be- lieves to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of counsel relat- ing to this Indenture or the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder or under the Notes in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. (f) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default or whether any entity or group of entities constitutes a Significant Subsidiary unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or of any such Significant Subsidiary is received by the Trustee at the corporate trust office of the Trustee specified in Section 3.12, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. (g) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, with- out limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its ca- pacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. (h) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or the Notes at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby. (i) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any fact or matter unless such fact or mat- ter is known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee. (j) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture or the Notes the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder or thereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or willful mis- conduct on its part, conclusively rely upon an Officer’s Certificate. (k) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, cou- pon 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, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or inves- tigation, it shall be entitled to examine, during business hours and upon reasonable notice, the books, records and premises of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. (l) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder. (m) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Inden- ture or the Notes. (n) In no event shall the Trustee be liable to any Person for special, punitive, indirect, consequential or incidental loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage. (o) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company shall be sufficient if signed by one Officer of the Company. SECTION 7.3. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company, Guarantors or their Affiliates


 
-91- 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 addi- tion, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions with the Company; provided, however, that if the Trus- tee 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. SECTION 7.4. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no represen- tation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes, shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee or any money paid to the Company pursuant to the terms of this Inden- ture and 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 Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. 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 send electronically or by first class mail to each Holder at the address set forth in the Notes Register notice of the Default or Event of Default within 60 days after it is actu- ally known to a Trust Officer. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the optional redemption or required repur- chase provisions of such Note), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long it in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders. SECTION 7.6. [Reserved]. SECTION 7.7. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its services hereunder and under the Notes as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. 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 reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the agents, counsel, accountants and experts of the Trustee. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability, damages, claims or expense, including taxes (other than taxes based upon the income of the Trustee) (including reasonable attorneys’ and agents’ fees and expenses) incurred by it without willful misconduct or gross negligence, as determined by a final nonap- pealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, on its part in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder and under the Notes, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this In- denture (including this Section 7.7) and the Notes and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Company or otherwise). The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity of which it has received written notice. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s expense in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay the fees and expenses of such separate counsel if it assumes the Trustee’s defense, and, in the reasonable judgment of outside counsel to the Trustee, there is no conflict of interest between the Company and the Trustee in connection with such defense. To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.7, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes 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 Notes. Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. The Trustee’s respective right to receive payment of any amounts due under this Section 7.7 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or Indebtedness of the Company. The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall survive the discharge of this Inden- ture and any resignation or removal of the Trustee under Section 7.8. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs fees, expenses or renders services after the occurrence of a Default specified in clause (7) or clause (8) of Section 6.1(a), the expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.


 
-92- SECTION 7.8. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company in writing not less than 30 days prior to the effective date of such resignation. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the removed Trustee in writing not less than 30 days prior to the effective date of such removal and may appoint a successor Trustee with the Company’s written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall remove the Trustee if: (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; (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 Notes and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee as described in the preceding paragraph, or if a vacancy exists in the office of the 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, at the expense of the Company, promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.7. 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 Notes may petition, at the Company’s expense, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided in TIA Section 310(b), any Holder, who has been a bona fide holder of a Note for at least six months, 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 7.8, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. The predecessor Trustee shall have no liabil- ity for any action or inaction of any successor Trustee. SECTION 7.9. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts in- to, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking associa- tion, 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 Notes 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 Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the suc- cessor to the Trustee; provided that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall only apply to its successor or successors by merger, consolidation or conversion. SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. This Indenture shall always have a Trustee. The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. SECTION 7.11. [Reserved].


 
-93- SECTION 7.12. Trustee’s Application for Instruction from the Company. Any application by the Trus- tee for written instructions from the Company may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action pro- posed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such applica- tion (which date shall not be less than three Business Days after the date any Officer of the Company actually re- ceives such application, unless any such Officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received written in- structions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted. ARTICLE VIII LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE SECTION 8.1. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance; Defeasance. The Com- pany may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article VIII. SECTION 8.2. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.2, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satis- faction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satis- fied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guar- antors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.5 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all of their other obligations under such Notes, the Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on written demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute such instruments reasonably requested by the Company acknowl- edging the same) and to have cured all then existing Events of Default, except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of Notes issued under this Indenture to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, on the Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust referred to in Section 8.4 hereof; (2) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes under Article II concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of such Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and Section 3.12 hereof concerning the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust; (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee and the Company’ or Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and (4) this Article VIII with respect to provisions relating to Legal Defeasance. SECTION 8.3. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’ exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.3, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Section 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.16, 3.19, 3.21 and Section 4.1 (except Section 4.1(a)(1) and (a)(2)) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Guaran- tees, the Company and the 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, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference


 
-94- elsewhere herein to any such covenant 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 shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.1(a) hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.3, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, Sec- tions 6.1(a)(3) (other than with respect to Section 4.1(a)(1) and (a)(2)), 6.1(a)(4), 6.1(a)(5), 6.1(a)(6), 6.1(a)(7) (with respect only to a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Guarantors that taken together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), and 6.1(a)(8) (with respect only to a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Guarantors that taken together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default. SECTION 8.4. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. In order to exercise either Legal Defea- sance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof: (1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of and premium, if any, interest, due on the Notes issued under this Indenture on the stated maturity date or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether such Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions; (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or (B) since the issuance of such Notes, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law; in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel in the United States shall con- firm that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders, in their capacity as Holders of the Notes; will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Le- gal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. 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; (3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders, in their capacity as Holders of the Notes, will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. 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; (4) no Default or Event of Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be ap- plied to make such deposit and the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which, the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound; (6) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion and subject to customary assumptions and exclusions following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of Sections 547 and 548 of Title 11 of the United States


 
-95- Code, as amended, or any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting credi- tors’ rights generally under any applicable U.S. federal or state law; (7) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying, defrauding or pre- ferring any creditors of the Company or any Guarantor or others; and (8) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel in the United States (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with. SECTION 8.5. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Mis- cellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 8.6 hereof, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Sec- tion 8.5, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.4 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may deter- mine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or as- sessed against the cash or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.4 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VIII to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Compa- ny from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.4 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public account- ants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.4(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. SECTION 8.6. Repayment to the Company. 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, premium or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on their written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be per- mitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof unless an abandoned property law designates another Per- son, 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, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publica- tion, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. SECTION 8.7. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or Governmental Authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company make any payment of principal of, pre- mium, or interest on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.


 
-96- ARTICLE IX AMENDMENTS SECTION 9.1. Without Consent of Holders. Notwithstanding Section 9.2 of this Indenture, the Com- pany, any Guarantor (with respect to its Guarantee or this Indenture) and the Trustee may amend, supplement or modify this Indenture, any Guarantee and the Notes without the consent of any Holder: (1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect, error or inconsistency, conform any provision to any provision under the heading “Description of the Notes” in the Offering Memorandum or reduce the minimum denomination of the Notes; (2) to provide for the assumption by a successor Person of the obligations of the Company under any Note Document; (3) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; (4) to add to the covenants or provide for a Note Guarantee for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; (5) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder in any material respect; (6) at the Company’s election, comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, if such qualification is required; (7) make such provisions as necessary (as determined in good faith by the Company) for the issuance of Additional Notes; (8) provide for any Restricted Subsidiary to provide a Note Guarantee in accordance with Section 3.2, to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes, to add security to or for the benefit of the Notes, or to confirm and evidence the release, termination, discharge or retaking of any Guarantee or Lien with re- spect to or securing the Notes when such release, termination, discharge or retaking is provided for under this Indenture; (9) evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment under this Indenture of a suc- cessor Trustee pursuant to the requirements hereof or to provide for the accession by the Trustee to any Note Document; or (10) make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including to facilitate the issuance and administration of Notes; provided, however, that (i) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any other applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes in any material respect. Subject to Section 9.2, upon the request of the Company accompanied by a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Sections 9.6 and 12.4 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execu- tion of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture affects the Trus- tee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. After an amendment or supplement under this Section 9.1 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment or supplement. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment or supplement under this Section 9.1.


 
-97- SECTION 9.2. With Consent of Holders. Except as provided below in this Section 9.2, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, any Guarantee and the Notes issued here- under with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then out- standing and issued under this Indenture, including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a pur- chase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes, and, subject to Sections 6.4 and 6.7 hereof, any existing De- fault or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes issued under this Indenture (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for Notes). Sec- tion 2.12 hereof and Section 12.4 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.2. Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the ex- ecution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the con- sent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Sections 9.6 and 12.4 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, lia- bilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. Without the consent of each Holder of Notes affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not, with respect to any Notes issued thereunder and held by a nonconsenting Holder: (1) reduce the principal amount of such Notes whose Holders must consent to an amend- ment; (2) reduce the stated rate of or extend the stated time for payment of interest on any such Note (other than provisions relating to Section 3.5 and Section 3.9); (3) reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any such Note (other than provi- sions relating to Section 3.5 and Section 3.9); (4) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any such Note or change the time at which any such Note may be redeemed, in each case as set forth in Section 5.7; (5) make any such Note payable in currency other than that stated in such Note; (6) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such pay- ment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes; (7) waive a Default or Event of Default with respect to the nonpayment of principal, premi- um or interest (except pursuant to a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a ma- jority in aggregate principal amount of such Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); (8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this Inden- ture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or (9) make any change in the amendment or waiver provisions which require the Holders’ con- sent described in this Section 9.2. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance


 
-98- thereof. A consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver under this Indenture by any Holder of the Notes given in connection with a tender or exchange of such Holder’s Notes will not be rendered invalid by such tender or ex- change. After an amendment or supplement under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment or supplement. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment or supplement. SECTION 9.3. Compliance with this Indenture. Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture, any Guarantee and the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with this In- denture as then in effect. SECTION 9.4. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effec- tive. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds eve- ry Holder. The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Hold- ers entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursu- ant 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 be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date. SECTION 9.5. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver. SECTION 9.6. Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Company may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors of the Company approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.2 hereof) shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.2 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and is valid, binding and enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. ARTICLE X GUARANTEE SECTION 10.1. Guarantee. Subject to the provisions of this Article X, each Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, to each Holder of the Notes, 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 Notes and all other obligations and liabilities of the Company under this Indenture (including without limitation in-


 
-99- terest 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 Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding and the obligations under Section 7.7), (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations will rank equally in right of payment with other Indebtedness of such Guarantor, except to the extent such other Indebtedness is subordinate to the Guaranteed Obligations, in which case the obligations of the Guarantors under the Guarantees will rank senior in right of payment to such other Indebtedness. To evidence its Guarantee set forth in this Section 10.1, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer of such Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in this Section 10.1 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes. If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authen- ticates the Note, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. Each Guarantor further agrees (to the extent permitted by law) that the Guaranteed Obligations may be ex- tended 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 Guaranteed Obligation. Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the issuer of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that its 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 Guaranteed Obligations. Except as set forth in Section 10.2, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Guaranteed Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and 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 Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not 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 Notes 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 In- denture, the Notes or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder for the Guaranteed Obligations; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Company; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed 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 Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a dis- charge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. Each Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee herein shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations or such Guarantor is released from its Guarantee in compliance with Section 10.2, Article VIII or Article XI. Each Guarantor further agrees that its 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, inter- est on any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bank- ruptcy 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 Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Guaranteed Obli- gations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise,


 
-100- each 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 or the Trustee on behalf of the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the un- paid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guar- anteed Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) (including interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like pro- ceeding relating to the Company or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding). Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition prevent- ing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of this Guarantee. Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and ex- penses) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section. 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 Guarantor hereunder will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal, foreign or state law and not otherwise be- ing void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. (b) Any Note Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and dis- charged upon: (1) a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation, merger or amalgamation) of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor to a Person other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and as otherwise permitted by this Indenture; (2) the designation in accordance with this Indenture of the Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or the occurrence of any event after which the Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary; (3) defeasance or discharge of the Notes pursuant to Article VIII or Article XI; (4) to the extent that such Guarantor is not an Immaterial Subsidiary solely due to the opera- tion of clause (i) of the definition of “Immaterial Subsidiary,” upon the release of the guarantee referred to in such clause; (5) such Guarantor being released from all of (i) its obligations under all of its Guarantees of payment by the Company of any Indebtedness of the Company under the Credit Agreement or (ii) in the case of a Note Guarantee made by a Guarantor (each, an “Other Guarantee”) as a result of its guarantee of other Indebtedness of the Company or a Guarantor pursuant to the Section 3.7 hereof, the relevant Indebt- edness, except in the case of (i) or (ii), a release as a result of the repayment in full of the Indebtedness specified in clause (i) or (ii) (it being understood that a release subject to a contingent reinstatement is still considered a release, and if any such Indebtedness of such Guarantor under the Credit Agreement or any Other Guarantee is so reinstated, such Note Guarantee shall also be reinstated); or


 
-101- (6) upon the achievement of Investment Grade Status by the Notes; provided that such Note Guarantee shall be reinstated upon the Reversion Date. SECTION 10.3. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any Guar- antor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made on the obligations under the Guaran- tees, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the Company or any other 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 Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. SECTION 10.4. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by each Guarantor hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder against the Company or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee or any Holder for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustee and the Holders by the Company on account of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subroga- tion rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Guaranteed Obli- gations. ARTICLE XI SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE SECTION 11.1. Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when: (a) either: (1) all Notes that have been authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (2) all such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (i) have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise or (ii) will become due and payable within one year at their Stated Maturity or (iii) are to be called for redemption within one year un- der arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee, in the name, and at the expense of the Company; (b) the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, 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 dis- charge the entire Indebtedness on such Notes not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal, premium, if any, and interest to the date of deposit (in the case of Notes that have become due and payable), or to the Stated Maturity or redemption date, as the case may be; (c) no Default or Event of Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and the granting of Liens in connection therewith) with respect to this Indenture or the Notes issued hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;


 
-102- (d) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by the Company under this Indenture; and (e) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of such Notes issued hereunder at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be. In addition, the Company shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (a)(2) of this Section 11.1, the provisions of Sections 11.2 and 8.6 hereof will survive. SECTION 11.2. Application of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.6 hereof, all mon- ey or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may deter- mine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium) and interest for whose payment such money or U.S. Government Obligations has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money or U.S. Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accord- ance with Section 11.1 hereof 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 Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, pre- mium or interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. ARTICLE XII MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 12.1. Notices. Any notice, request, direction, consent or communication made pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or the Notes shall be in writing and delivered in person, sent by facsimile, sent by electronic mail in pdf format, delivered by commercial courier service or mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: if to the Company or to any Guarantor: Townsquare Media, Inc. 240 Greenwich Avenue Greenwich, CT 06830 Attention: Chief Financial Officer Facsimile: (203) 861-0900 with a copy to: Kirkland & Ellis LLP 601 Lexington Ave New York, New York 10022 Attention: Joshua Korff, Esq.

Any notice or communication sent to a Holder shall be mailed to the Holder at the Holder’s address as it appears in the Notes Register and shall be sufficiently given if so sent within the time prescribed. Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. If a notice or communication is sent in the manner provided above, it is duly given, wheth- er or not the addressee receives it, except that notices to the Trustee shall be effective only upon receipt. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Note, where this Indenture or any Note pro- vides for notice of any event (including any notice of redemption or purchase) to a Holder of a Global Note (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to DTC (or its designee) pursuant to the stand- ing instructions from DTC or its designee. SECTION 12.2. Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent.

In determining whether the Holders of the required aggre- gate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, any Guarantor or any Affiliate of them shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Also, subject to the foregoing, only Notes outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination. SECTION 12.5. Rules by Trustee, Paying Agent and Registrar. The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by, or at meetings of, Holders. The Registrar and the Paying Agent may make reasonable rules for their functions. SECTION 12.6. Legal Holidays. A “Legal Holiday” is a Saturday, a Sunday or other day on which commercial banking institutions are authorized or required to be closed in New York, New York or the state of the place of payment. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday, payment shall be made on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. If a regular record date is a Legal Holi- day, the record date shall not be affected. SECTION 12.7. Governing Law. THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. SECTION 12.8. Jurisdiction. The Company and the Guarantors agree that any suit, action or proceed- ing against the Company or any Guarantor brought by any Holder or the Trustee arising out of or based upon this Indenture, the Guarantee or the Notes may be instituted in any state or Federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of them irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any suit, action or proceeding. The Company and the Guarantors irrevo- cably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to any suit, action, or proceeding that may be brought in connection with this Indenture, the Guarantee or the Notes, including such actions, suits or proceedings relating to securities laws of the United States of America or any state thereof, in such courts whether on the grounds of venue, residence or domicile or on the ground that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an in- convenient forum. The Company and the Guarantors agree that final judgment in any such suit, action or proceed- ing brought in such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, and may be enforced in any court to the jurisdiction of which the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, are subject by a suit upon such judgment.

SECTION 12.10. USA PATRIOT Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Sec- tion 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may request in order to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act.


 
-105- SECTION 12.11. No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or share- holder of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or such (other than the Company and the Guarantors), shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Guarantees or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issu- ance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. SECTION 12.12. Successors. All agreements of the Company and each Guarantor in this Indenture and the Notes shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its suc- cessors. SECTION 12.13. Multiple Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. The exchange of cop- ies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. SECTION 12.14. Table of Contents; Headings. The table of contents, cross-reference table and head- ings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not in- tended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof. SECTION 12.15. Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces be- yond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utili- ties, communications or computer (software and hardware) services, it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable best efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. SECTION 12.16. Severability. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, il- legal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

A-4 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE] TOWNSQUARE MEDIA, INC. 6.500% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2023 Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. 1. Interest The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 6.500% per annum from April 1, 2015 until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears every April 1 and October 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Pay- ment Date”). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be October 1, 2015. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified herein, and it shall pay interest (in- cluding post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. [Until this Regulation S Temporary Global Note is exchanged for one or more Regulation S Permanent Global Notes, the Holder hereof shall not be entitled to receive payments of interest hereon; until so exchanged in full, this Regulation S Temporary Global Note shall in all other respects be entitled to the same benefits as other Notes under the Indenture.] 2. Method of Payment By no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any principal of, premium, if any, interest, on any Note is due and payable, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient in im- mediately available funds to pay such principal, premium, interest when due. Interest on any Note which is payable, and is timely paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the preceding March 15 and September 15 at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Indenture. The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of Paying Agent or Registrar designated by the Company maintained for such purpose (which shall initially be the office of the Trustee maintained for such purpose), or at such other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Indenture; provided, however, that, at the option of the Paying Agent, each installment of interest may be paid by (i) check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled there- to as such addresses shall appear on the Notes Register or (ii) wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained by the payee, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph. Payments in respect of Notes represented by a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company or any successor depository. Payments in respect of Notes represented by Definitive Notes (including principal, premium, if any, interest) held by a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by Definitive Notes will be made in accordance with the Notes Register, or 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). If an Interest Payment Date is a Legal Holiday, payment shall be made on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. If a regular record date is a Legal Holiday, the record date shall not be affected. 3. Paying Agent and Registrar The Company initially appoints Wilmington Trust, National Association (the “Trustee”) as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes. The Company may change any Registrar or Paying Agent without prior notice to the Holders. The Company or any Guarantor may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or transfer agent.


 
A-5 4. Indenture The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of April 1, 2015 (as it may be amended or sup- plemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the guar- antors named therein and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “Act”). The Notes are subject to all terms and provisions of the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms. The Notes are senior obligations of the Company. The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture is unlimited. This Note is one of the 6.500% Senior Notes due 2023 referred to in the Indenture. The Notes include (i) $300,000,000 principal amount of the Company’s 6.500% Senior Notes due 2023 issued under the Indenture on April 1, 2015 (the “Initial Notes”) and (ii) if and when issued, addi- tional Notes that may be issued from time to time under the Indenture subsequent to April 1, 2015 (the “Additional Notes”) as provided in Section 2.1(a) of the Indenture. The Initial Notes and the Additional Notes shall be consid- ered collectively as a single class for all purposes of the Indenture; provided that the Additional Notes will not be issued with the same CUSIP as the existing Notes unless such Additional Notes are fungible with the existing Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness, the making of restricted payments, the sale of assets, the incurrence of certain liens, the making of payments for consents, the entering into of agreements that restrict distribution from restricted subsidiaries and the consummation of mergers and consolidations. The Indenture also imposes requirements with respect to the provision of financial information and the provision of guarantees of the Notes by certain subsidiaries. 5. [Reserved] 6. Guarantees To guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal, premium, if any, interest (including post-filing or post-petition interest in any proceeding under Bankruptcy Law) on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Company under the Indenture and the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether at maturi- ty, by acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture, the Guarantor will uncondi- tionally guarantee (and future guarantors, jointly and severally with the Guarantor, will fully and unconditionally Guarantee) such obligations on a senior basis pursuant to the terms of the Indenture. 7. Redemption (a) At any time prior to April 1, 2018, the Company may redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at its option, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the Notes Register, at a redemption price (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the relevant Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, to but excluding the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”), subject to the rights of holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. (b) At any time and from time to time prior to April 1, 2018, the Company may, at its option, on one or more occasions, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the Notes Register, redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture at a redemption price (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) equal to 106.500% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, with the net cash proceeds received by the Company of one or more Equity Offerings of the Company; provid- ed that not less than 60% of the original aggregate principal amount of Notes initially issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Com- pany or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries); provided further that each such redemption occurs not later than


 
A-6 180 days after the date of closing of the related Equity Offering. The Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased in the manner described under Sections 5.1 through 5.6 of the Indenture. (c) Except pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) of this paragraph 7, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to April 1, 2018. (d) At any time and from time to time on or after April 1, 2018, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the Notes Register at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth in the table below, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 1 of each of the years indicated in the table below: Period Percentage 2018 ................................................................................................ 104.875% 2019 ................................................................................................ 103.250% 2020 ................................................................................................ 101.625% 2021 and thereafter ......................................................................... 100.000% (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any tender offer for the Notes, including a Change of Control Offer or Asset Disposition Offer, if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Company, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Company, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party shall have the right upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appear- ing in the Notes Register, given not more than 30 days following such purchase date to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to but not including, the date of such redemption. (f) Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date. (g) Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph 7 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sec- tions 5.1 through 5.6 of the Indenture. Except as set forth in paragraph 5 above, the Company is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 8. Repurchase Provisions If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase from each Holder all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, to but excluding the date of purchase, 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. Upon certain Asset Dispositions, the Company may be required to use the Excess Proceeds from such As- set Dispositions to offer to offer to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes (that is $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) and, at the Company’s option, Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the pro- cedures set forth in Section 3.5 and in Article V of the Indenture.


 
A-7 9. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange The Notes shall be issuable only in fully registered form in minimum denominations of principal amount of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accord- ance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorse- ments or transfer documents and to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange of any Note (A) for a period beginning (1) 15 days before the mailing of a notice of an offer to repurchase or redeem Notes and ending at the close of busi- ness on the day of such mailing or (2) 15 days before an Interest Payment Date and ending on such Interest Payment Date or (B) called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. [This Regulation S Temporary Global Note is exchangeable in whole or in part for one or more Global Notes only (i) on or after the expiration of the Restricted Period and (ii) upon presentation of certificates (accompa- nied by an Opinion of Counsel, if applicable) required by Article II of the Indenture. Upon exchange of this Regula- tion S Temporary Global Note for one or more Global Notes, the Trustee shall cancel this Regulation S Temporary Global Note.] 10. Persons Deemed Owners The registered Holder of this Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 11. Unclaimed Money If money for the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trus- tee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person to receive such money. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment as general creditors unless an abandoned property law designates another person for payment. 12. Discharge and Defeasance Subject to certain exceptions and conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company at any time may termi- nate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee mon- ey or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal, premium, if any and interest on the Notes to re- demption or maturity, as the case may be. 13. Amendment, Supplement, Waiver Subject to certain exceptions contained in the Indenture, the Indenture and the Notes may be amended, or a Default thereunder may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trus- tee may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes as provided in the Indenture. 14. Defaults and Remedies If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or certain Guarantors) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Com- pany, or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may, and the Trustee (subject to the provisions of the Indenture) at the request of such Holders shall, de- clare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, and any other monetary obligations on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal, premium, interest, and other monetary obligations will be due and payable immediately. If a bankruptcy, insolvency or reor- ganization of the Company or certain Guarantors occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and any other monetary obligations on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. Under certain cir-


 
A-8 cumstances, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind any such accelera- tion with respect to the Notes and its consequences. 15. Trustee Dealings with the Company Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company, Guarantors or their Affili- ates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions with the Company; provided, however, that if the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest under the Act, the Trustee must (i) eliminate such conflict within 90 days of acquiring such conflicting interest, (ii) apply to the Commission for permission to continue acting as Trustee or (iii) resign. 16. No Recourse Against Others No director, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Af- filiates, as such (other than the Company and the Guarantors), shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. 17. Authentication This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent acting on its behalf) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note. 18. Abbreviations Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (= ten- ants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entirety), JT TEN (= joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= custodian) and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gift to Minors Act). 19. CUSIP and ISIN Numbers The Company has caused CUSIP and ISIN numbers, if applicable, to be printed on the Notes and has di- rected the Trustee to use CUSIP and ISIN numbers, if applicable, in notices of redemption or purchase as a conven- ience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or purchase and reliance may be placed only on the other identification num- bers placed thereon. 20. Governing Law This Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge to the Holder a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to: Townsquare Media, Inc. 240 Greenwich Avenue Greenwich, CT 06830 Facsimile: (203) 861-0920 Attention: Chief Financial Officer

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or certain Guarantors) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may, and the Trustee (subject to the provisions of the Indenture) at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, and any other monetary obligations on all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal, premium, interest, and other monetary obligations will be due and payable immediately. If a bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or certain Guarantors occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and any other monetary obligations on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. Under certain circumstances, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences.
15.     Trustee Dealings with the Company
Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company, Guarantors or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions with the Company; provided , however , that if the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest under the Act, the Trustee must (i) eliminate such conflict within 90 days of acquiring such conflicting interest, (ii) apply to the Commission for permission to continue acting as Trustee or (iii) resign.
16.     No Recourse Against Others
No director, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, as such (other than the Company and the Guarantors), shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.
17.     Authentication
This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent acting on its behalf) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.





18.     Abbreviations
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entirety), JT TEN (= joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= custodian) and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gift to Minors Act).
19.     CUSIP and ISIN Numbers
The Company has caused CUSIP and ISIN numbers, if applicable, to be printed on the Notes and has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP and ISIN numbers, if applicable, in notices of redemption or purchase as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or purchase and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

On the terms and subject to the conditions con-2502 tained in this Agreement, each Revolving Credit Lender severally, but not jointly, agrees to make loans in 2503 Dollars (each a “Revolving Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the 2504 period from the date hereof until the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount 2505 at any time outstanding for all such loans by such Lender not to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit 2506 Commitment; provided, however, that at no time shall any Revolving Credit Lender be obligated to make 2507 a Revolving Loan in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount by which the then effective 2508 Revolving Credit Commitments exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings at such time. 2509 Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause (a), amounts of Revolving Loans repaid may 2510 be reborrowed under this Section 2.1. 2511 (b) Term Loan Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained 2512 in this Agreement, each Term Lender having an Initial Term Loan Commitment severally, but not jointly, 2513 agrees to make an Initial Term Loan to the Borrower on the Closing Date, in an amount not to exceed 2514 such Lender’s Initial Term Loan Commitment. Amounts of Initial Term Loans repaid may not be rebor-2515 rowed. 2516 Section 2.2 Borrowing Procedures. 2517 (a) Notice From the Borrower. Each Borrowing shall be made on notice given by 2518 the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on (i) the first Business Day, in the 2519 case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) the third Business Day, in the case of a Borrowing of 2520 Eurodollar Rate Loans, prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such notice may be made in a 2521 writing substantially in the form of Exhibit C (a “Notice of Borrowing”) duly completed. Loans shall be 2522 made as Base Rate Loans unless, outside of a suspension period pursuant to Section 2.15, the Notice of 2523 Borrowing specifies that all or a portion thereof shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Borrowing shall be 2524 in an aggregate principal amount of no less than $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess 2525 thereof. If the Borrower fails to specify whether a Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar 2526 Rate Loan in a Notice of Borrowing, then the applicable Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans. If the 2527 Borrower requests a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Notice of Borrowing, but fails to 2528 specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month. 2529


 
-56- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 10:05 pm 18471007v22 (b) Notice to Each Lender. The Administrative Agent shall give to each Lender 2530 prompt notice of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Notice of Borrowing and, if Eurodollar Rate 2531 Loans are properly requested in such Notice of Borrowing, prompt notice of the applicable interest rate. 2532 Each Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. on the date of the proposed Borrowing, make available to the Ad-2533 ministrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 11.11, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such pro-2534 posed Borrowing. Upon fulfillment or due waiver (i) on the Closing Date, of the applicable conditions set 2535 forth in Section 3.1 and (ii) on the Closing Date and any time thereafter, of the applicable conditions set 2536 forth in Section 3.2, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower. 2537 (c) Non-Funding Lenders. 2538 (i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Lender pri-2539 or to the date such Lender is required to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Loan or 2540 any participation in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit that such Lender will not make such 2541 payment (or any portion thereof) available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent 2542 may assume that such Lender has made such payment available to the Administrative Agent on 2543 the date such payment is required to be made in accordance with this Article 2 and the Adminis-2544 trative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such 2545 date a corresponding amount; provided that nothing herein or in any other Loan Document shall 2546 be deemed to require the Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender. The 2547 Borrower agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such amount (until repaid by 2548 such Lender) with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is made available to 2549 the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate 2550 applicable to the Obligation that would have been created when the Administrative Agent made 2551 available such amount to the Borrower had such Lender made a corresponding payment availa-2552 ble; provided, however, that such payment shall not relieve such Lender of any obligation it may 2553 have to the Borrower, the Swingline Lender or any L/C Issuer. In addition, any Non-Funding 2554 Lender agrees to pay, without duplication, such amount to the Administrative Agent on demand 2555 together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the 2556 Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds 2557 Rate for the first Business Day and thereafter at the interest rate applicable at the time to such Re-2558 volving Loan. Such repayment shall then constitute the funding of the corresponding Revolving 2559 Loan (including any Revolving Loan deemed to have been made hereunder with such payment) 2560 or participation. The failure of a Non-Funding Lender to make any Revolving Loan, to fund any 2561 purchase of any participation to be made or funded by it or to make any other payment required to 2562 be made by it under the Loan Documents, in each case on the date specified therefore, shall not 2563 relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make such loan, fund the purchase of such participa-2564 tion or make any other such payment under any Loan Document on such date, but neither the 2565 Administrative Agent nor, other than as expressly set forth herein, any Lender shall be responsi-2566 ble for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a Loan, fund the purchase of a participa-2567 tion or make any other payment required under any Loan Document. 2568 (ii) Reallocation. If any Revolving Credit Lender is a Non-Funding Lender, all or a 2569 portion of such Non-Funding Lender’s L/C Obligations (unless such Lender is the L/C Issuer that 2570 Issued such Letter of Credit) and reimbursement obligations with respect to Swingline Loans 2571 shall, at the Administrative Agent’s election at any time or upon any L/C Issuer’s or Swingline 2572 Lender’s, as applicable, written request delivered to the Administrative Agent (whether before or 2573 after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default), be reallocated to and assumed by the 2574 Revolving Credit Lenders that are not Non-Funding Lenders or Impacted Lenders pro rata in ac-2575 cordance with their Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitment (calculated as if the 2576 Non-Funding Lender’s Pro Rata Share was reduced to zero and each other Revolving Credit 2577

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including Sec-2583 tion 11.1, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect 2584 to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” or a “Revolving Credit Lender” (or be, or have its 2585 Loans or Commitments, included in the determination of “Required Lenders,” “Required Revolv-2586 ing Credit Lenders” or “Lenders directly affected” pursuant to Section 11.1) for any voting or 2587 consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document; provided that (A) the Commitment 2588 of a Non-Funding Lender may not be increased, extended or reinstated, (B) the principal of a 2589 Non-Funding Lender’s Loans may not be reduced or forgiven and (C) the interest rate applicable 2590 to Obligations owing to a Non-Funding Lender may not be reduced, in each case without the con-2591 sent of such Non-Funding Lender. For the purposes of determining Required Lenders and Re-2592 quired Revolving Credit Lenders, the Loans and Commitments held by Non-Funding Lenders 2593 shall be excluded from the total Loans and Commitments outstanding. 2594 (iv) Borrower Payments to a Non-Funding Lender. The Administrative Agent shall 2595 be entitled to hold, in a non-interest bearing account, all portions of any payments received by the 2596 Administrative Agent for the benefit of any Non-Funding Lender pursuant to this Agreement as 2597 cash collateral. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to use such cash collateral to pay 2598 in full the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount to the appropriate Secured Parties, and then, to 2599 hold as cash collateral the amount of such Non-Funding Lender’s pro rata share, without giving 2600 effect to any reallocation pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii), of all L/C Obligations until the Obliga-2601 tions are paid in full in cash, all L/C Obligations have been discharged or cash collateralized and 2602 all Commitments have been terminated. Upon any such unfunded obligations owing by a Non-2603 Funding Lender becoming due and payable, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to use 2604 such cash collateral to make such payment on behalf of such Non-Funding Lender. With respect 2605 to such Non-Funding Lender’s failure to fund Revolving Loans or purchase participations in Let-2606 ters of Credit or L/C Obligations, any amounts applied by the Administrative Agent to satisfy 2607 such funding shortfalls shall be deemed to constitute a Revolving Loan or amount of the partici-2608 pation required to be funded and, if necessary to effectuate the foregoing, the other Revolving 2609 Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have sold, and such Non-Funding Lender shall be deemed to 2610 have purchased, Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit participation interests from the other Re-2611 volving Credit Lenders until such time as the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loans and par-2612 ticipations in Letters of Credit and L/C Obligations are held by the Revolving Credit Lenders in 2613 accordance with their Pro Rata Shares of the Revolving Credit Commitment. Any amounts ow-2614 ing by a Non-Funding Lender to the Administrative Agent which are not paid when due shall ac-2615 crue interest at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base 2616 Rate Loans. In the event that the Administrative Agent is holding cash collateral of a Non-2617 Funding Lender that cures pursuant to clause (v) below or ceases to be a Non-Funding Lender 2618 pursuant to the definition of “Non-Funding Lender,” the Administrative Agent shall return the 2619 unused portion of such cash collateral to such Lender. The “Aggregate Excess Funding Amount” 2620 of a Non-Funding Lender shall be the aggregate amount of (A) all unpaid obligations owing by 2621 such Lender to the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuers, Swingline Lender, and other Lenders un-2622 der the Loan Documents, including such Lender’s pro rata share of all Revolving Loans, L/C Ob-2623 ligations, Swingline Loans, plus, without duplication, (B) all amounts of such Non-Funding 2624 Lender’s L/C Obligations and reimbursement Obligations with respect to Swingline Loans reallo-2625 cated to other Lenders pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii). 2626


 
-58- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 10:05 pm 18471007v22 (v) Cure. A Lender may cure its status as a Non-Funding Lender under clause (a) of 2627 the definition of “Non-Funding Lender” if such Lender fully pays to the Administrative Agent, on 2628 behalf of the applicable Secured Parties, the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount, plus all interest 2629 due thereon. Any such cure shall not relieve any Lender from liability for breaching its contractu-2630 al obligations hereunder. 2631 (vi) Fees. A Lender that is a Non-Funding Lender pursuant to clause (a) of the defi-2632 nition of “Non-Funding Lender” shall not earn and shall not be entitled to receive, and the Bor-2633 rower shall not be required to pay, such Lender’s portion of the Unused Commitment Fee during 2634 the time such Lender is a Non-Funding Lender pursuant to clause (a) thereof. In the event that 2635 any reallocation of L/C Obligations occurs pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii)), during the period of 2636 time that such reallocation remains in effect, the Letter of Credit Fee payable with respect to such 2637 reallocated portion shall be payable to (A) all Revolving Credit Lenders based on their pro rata 2638 share of such reallocation or (B) to the L/C Issuer for any remaining portion not reallocated to 2639 any other Revolving Credit Lenders. 2640 Section 2.3 Swingline Loans. 2641 (a) Availability. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agree-2642 ment, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, make loans in Dollars (each a “Swingline Loan”) 2643 available to the Borrower under the Revolving Credit Facility from time to time on any Business Day dur-2644 ing the period from the date hereof until the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate principal 2645 amount at any time outstanding not to exceed its Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that the 2646 Swingline Lender may not make any Swingline Loan (x) to the extent that after giving effect to such 2647 Swingline Loan, the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Com-2648 mitments and (y) in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives notice from the 2649 Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders that one or more of the conditions prece-2650 dent contained in Section 3.2 are not satisfied and ending when such conditions are satisfied or duly 2651 waived. In connection with the making of any Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender may but shall not 2652 be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 2653 have been satisfied or waived. Each Swingline Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and must be repaid in full 2654 on the earliest of (i) the funding date of any Borrowing of Revolving Loans and (ii) the Revolving Credit 2655 Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause (a), amounts of Swingline 2656 Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (a). 2657 (b) Borrowing Procedures. In order to request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall 2658 give to the Swingline Lender a notice to be received not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day of the proposed 2659 borrowing, which may be made in a writing substantially in the form of Exhibit D duly completed (a 2660 “Swingline Request”) or by telephone if confirmed promptly but, in any event, prior to such borrowing, 2661 with such a Swingline Request. In addition, if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Borrowing of Base 2662 Rate Loans, the Swingline Lender may, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in Section 2.2, 2663 make a Swingline Loan available to the Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed such proposed 2664 Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Borrowing shall be reduced accord-2665 ingly by the principal amount of such Swingline Loan. Upon receipt of such notice and subject to the 2666 terms of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender may make a Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by 2667 making the proceeds thereof available to the Administrative Agent and, in turn, the Administrative Agent 2668 shall make such proceeds available to the Borrower on the date set forth in the relevant Swingline Re-2669 quest. 2670 (c) Refinancing Swingline Loans. The Swingline Lender may at any time forward a 2671 demand to the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent shall, upon receipt, forward to each 2672


 
-59- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 10:05 pm 18471007v22 Revolving Credit Lender) that each Revolving Credit Lender pay to the Administrative Agent, for the 2673 account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all or a portion of the 2674 outstanding Swingline Loans (as such amounts may be increased pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii)). Each 2675 Revolving Credit Lender shall pay such Pro Rata Share to the Administrative Agent for the account of the 2676 Swingline Lender. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such payment (other than during the 2677 continuation of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(e)), such Revolving Credit Lender shall be 2678 deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, which, upon receipt of such payment by the 2679 Swingline Lender from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall be deemed to have used in whole to 2680 refinance such Swingline Loan. In addition, regardless of whether any such demand is made, upon the 2681 occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(e), each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed 2682 to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in each Swingline 2683 Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swingline Loan. If any payment made 2684 by any Revolving Credit Lender as a result of any such demand is not deemed a Revolving Loan, such 2685 payment shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of such participation. Such participation shall not be 2686 otherwise required to be funded. Upon receipt by the Swingline Lender of any payment from any Re-2687 volving Credit Lender pursuant to this clause (c) with respect to any portion of any Swingline Loan, the 2688 Swingline Lender shall promptly pay over to such Revolving Credit Lender all payments of principal (to 2689 the extent received after such payment by such Lender) and interest (to the extent accrued with respect to 2690 periods after such payment) received by the Swingline Lender with respect to such portion. 2691 (d) Obligation to Fund Absolute. Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligations pur-2692 suant to clause (c) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly 2693 in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including 2694 (A) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender, 2695 any Affiliate thereof or any other Person may have against the Swingline Lender, any other Secured Party 2696 or any other Person, (B) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 3.2 to be satisfied or 2697 the failure of the Borrower to deliver any notice set forth in Section 2.2(a) (each of which requirements 2698 the Revolving Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) and (C) any adverse change in the condition (fi-2699 nancial or otherwise) of any Loan Party. 2700 (e) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments. If the maturity 2701 date shall have occurred in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments (the “Expiring Cred-2702 it Commitment”) at a time when another tranche or tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments is or are 2703 in effect with a longer maturity date (each, a “non-Expiring Credit Commitment” and collectively, the 2704 “non-Expiring Credit Commitments”), then with respect to each outstanding Swingline Loan, if consent-2705 ed to by the applicable Swingline Lender, on the earliest occurring maturity date such Swingline Loan 2706 shall be deemed reallocated to the tranche or tranches of the non-Expiring Credit Commitments on a pro 2707 rata basis; provided that (x) to the extent that the amount of such reallocation would cause the aggregate 2708 credit exposure to exceed the aggregate amount of such non-Expiring Credit Commitments, immediately 2709 prior to such reallocation the amount of Swingline Loans to be reallocated equal to such excess shall be 2710 repaid or Cash Collateralized and (y) notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Default or Event of Default has 2711 occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall still be obligated to pay Swingline Loans allocated to the 2712 Revolving Credit Lenders holding the Expiring Credit Commitments at the maturity date of the Expiring 2713 Credit Commitment or if the Loans have been accelerated prior to the maturity date of the Expiring Credit 2714 Commitment. Commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments, the 2715 sublimit for Swingline Loans shall be agreed solely with the Swingline Lender. 2716 Section 2.4 Letters of Credit. 2717 (a) Commitment and Conditions.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations 3067 of the Borrower hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, 3068 for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that con-3069 tracting for or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of 3070 any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted 3071 for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrower shall pay such Lender interest at 3072 the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful Rate”); provided, however, that if at any 3073 time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower 3074 shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest 3075 received by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have 3076 been received had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest 3077 rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. 3078 Section 2.10 Conversion and Continuation Options. 3079 (a) Option. The Borrower may elect (i) in the case of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, (A) 3080 to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loan or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period on the last 3081 day of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) to convert such Eurodollar Rate Loan or any portion 3082 thereof into a Base Rate Loan at any time on any Business Day, subject to the payment of any breakage 3083 costs required by Section 2.16(a), and (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans), to 3084 convert such Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Eurodollar Rate Loans at any time on any Busi-3085

If the Borrower fails to 3093 specify whether a Loan is to be a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Rate Loan in a Notice of Conversion or 3094 Continuation or fails to make a timely election with respect to a conversion or continuation, then the ap-3095 plicable Loans shall be converted or continued as Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to 3096 Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to 3097 any applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a conversion to, or continuation of, Eu-3098 rodollar Rate Loans in any such Notice of Conversion or Continuation, but fails to specify an Interest Pe-3099 riod, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month. 3100 (b) Procedure. Each such election shall be made by giving the Administrative Agent 3101 by no later than 11:00 a.m. at least 3 Business Days’ prior notice in substantially the form of Exhibit F (a 3102 “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) duly completed. The Administrative Agent shall promptly noti-3103 fy each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation and of the options selected therein 3104 or, if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative 3105 Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion or continuation described in 3106 Section 2.10(a). If the Administrative Agent does not receive a timely Notice of Conversion or Continua-3107 tion from the Borrower containing a permitted election to continue or convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan, 3108 then, upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, such Loan shall be automatically converted to 3109 a Base Rate Loan. Each partial conversion or continuation shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders 3110 in the applicable Facility in accordance with their Pro Rata Share. Except as otherwise provided herein, a 3111 Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such 3112 Eurodollar Rate Loan unless the Borrower pays the amount due, if any, under Section 2.16(a) in connec-3113 tion therewith. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the in-3114 terest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest 3115 rate. The determination of the Eurodollar Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the 3116 absence of manifest error. 3117 Section 2.11 Fees. 3118 (a) Unused Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to each Revolving Credit 3119 Lender a commitment fee on the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such 3120 Lender exceeds its Pro Rata Share of the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Re-3121 volving Loans (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding Swingline Loans) and (ii) the outstanding amount 3122 of the L/C Obligations for all Letters of Credit (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) from the date hereof 3123 through the Revolving Credit Termination Date at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin, pay-3124 able in arrears (x) on the last day of each calendar quarter and (y) on the Revolving Credit Termination 3125 Date. 3126 (b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for 3127 the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders for the applicable Revolving Facility (in accordance with 3128 their Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement) a Letter of Credit fee 3129 (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in Dollars for each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement equal to 3130 the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans times the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn 3131 under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of 3132

The Borrower hereby ir-3180 revocably waives, and agrees to cause each Loan Party and each other Group Member to waive, the right 3181 to direct the application during the continuance of an Event of Default of any and all payments in respect 3182 of any Obligation and any proceeds of Collateral and agrees that, notwithstanding the provisions of 3183 clause (a) above, the Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A) the direction of the Required Lend-3184 ers or (B) the termination of any Commitment or the acceleration of any Obligation pursuant to Sec-3185 tion 9.2, shall, apply all payments in respect of any Obligation, all funds on deposit in any Cash Collateral 3186 Account and all other proceeds of Collateral (i) first, to pay Obligations in respect of any cost or expense 3187 reimbursements, fees or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second, to pay Obligations 3188 in respect of any cost or expense reimbursements, fees or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the 3189 L/C Issuers, (iii) third, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the Loans and L/C Reimburse-3190 ment Obligations, (iv) fourth, to repay the outstanding principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Reim-3191 bursement Obligations, to provide cash collateral for Letters of Credit in the manner and to the extent de-3192 scribed in Section 9.3 and to pay any Obligations under any Secured Hedging Agreement or any Secured 3193 Cash Management Agreement and (v) fifth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations.

All repayments of any Revolving Loans shall be applied first, to 3204 repay such Loans outstanding as Base Rate Loans and then, to repay such Loans outstanding as Eurodol-3205 lar Rate Loans, with those Eurodollar Rate Loans having earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid 3206 prior to those having later expiring Interest Periods. All repayments of Term Loans of any series shall be 3207 allocated ratably among the Term Loans of such series. All repayments of Term Loans shall be applied to 3208 reduce remaining installments of such outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans. If sufficient 3209 amounts are not available to repay all outstanding Obligations described in any priority level set forth in 3210 this Section 2.12, the available amounts shall be applied, unless otherwise expressly specified herein, to 3211 such Obligations ratably based on the proportion of the Secured Parties’ interest in such Obligations.

The Lenders shall make any payment under any Loan 3238 Document in immediately available Dollars and without setoff or counterclaim. Each Revolving Credit 3239 Lender shall make each payment for the account of any L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender required pursuant 3240 to Section 2.3 or 2.4 (A) if the notice or demand therefor was received by such Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. 3241 on any Business Day, on such Business Day and (B) otherwise, on the Business Day following such re-3242 ceipt. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. may, in the Administrative 3243 Agent’s sole discretion, be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. 3244 (b) Computations of Interests and Fees. All computations of interest and of fees 3245 shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in the case of Base Rate 3246 Loans, 365/366 days), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the 3247 last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable; provided that any Loan that 3248 is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination of 3249 an interest rate or the amount of a fee hereunder shall be made by the Administrative Agent (including 3250 determinations of a Eurodollar Rate or Base Rate in accordance with the definitions of “Eurodollar Rate” 3251 and “Base Rate,” respectively) and shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest 3252 error. 3253 (c) Payment Dates. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a 3254 day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding 3255 Business Day without any increase in such payment as a result of additional interest or fees; provided, 3256 however, that such interest and fees shall continue accruing as a result of such extension of time. For the 3257 avoidance of doubt, the initial payments of interest and fees relating to the Obligations (other than 3258 amounts due on the Closing Date) shall be due and paid on the last day of the first month or quarter, as 3259 applicable, following entry of the Obligations onto the operations systems of the Administrative Agent, 3260 but in no event later than the last day of the second month or quarter, as applicable, following the Closing 3261 Date. 3262 (d) Advancing Payments. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received no-3263 tice from the Borrower to the Lenders prior to the date on which any payment is due hereunder that the 3264 Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower 3265 has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent 3266 may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an 3267 amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have 3268 made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative 3269 Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon (at the Federal 3270

The entries made in the Register and in the accounts 3328 maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements 3329 of Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provid-3330 ed, however, that no error in such account and no failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to 3331 maintain any such account shall affect the obligations of any Loan Party to repay the Loans in accordance 3332 with their terms. In addition, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers 3333 shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, 3334 for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or 3335 any L/C Issuer shall be available for access by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or 3336 such L/C Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Lender or 3337 L/C Issuer shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in 3338 the Register other than information with respect to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless otherwise agreed by 3339 the Administrative Agent. 3340 (e) Notes. Upon any Lender’s request, the Borrower shall promptly execute and de-3341 liver Notes to such Lender evidencing the Loans of such Lender in a Facility and substantially in the form 3342 of Exhibit B-1 or B-2, as applicable; provided, however, that only one Note for each Facility shall be is-3343 sued to each Lender, except (i) to an existing Lender exchanging existing Notes to reflect changes in the 3344 Register relating to such Lender, in which case the new Notes delivered to such Lender shall be dated the 3345 date of the original Notes and (ii) in the case of loss, destruction or mutilation of existing Notes and simi-3346 lar circumstances. Each Note, if issued, shall only be issued as means to evidence the right, title or inter-3347 est of a Lender or a registered assignee in and to the related Loan, as set forth in the Register, and in no 3348 event shall any Note be considered a bearer instrument or obligation. 3349 Section 2.15 Suspension of Eurodollar Rate Option. Notwithstanding any provision to the 3350 contrary in this Article 2, the following shall apply: 3351 (a) Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair. In the event that (A) the 3352 Administrative Agent determines that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable 3353 interest rates by reference to which the Eurodollar Rate is determined or (B) the Required Lenders notify 3354 the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the 3355 cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative 3356 Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon the obligation of each Lender to 3357 make or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended as provided in clause (c) below until the 3358 Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Required Lenders have determined that the cir-3359 cumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 3360 (b) Illegality.

During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any Secured Obligation, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable law. (b) Disposition of Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Adminis- trative Agent may, upon notice (either prior to or promptly after any such action) and only to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, without demand of performance or other demand, pre- sentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to be- low) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertise- ments and notices are hereby waived), during the continuance of any Event of Default (personally or through its agents or attorneys), (i) enter upon the premises where any Collateral is located, without any obligation to pay rent, through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving any Grantor or any other Person notice or opportunity for a hearing on the Administrative Agent’s claim or action, (ii) collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon any Collateral and (iii) Sell, grant option or options to purchase and deliver any Collateral (enter into Contractual Obligations to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of any Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisa- ble and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent shall have the right, upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable Requirements of Law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption of any Grantor, which right or equity is, to the extent not prohibited by law, hereby waived and released. (c) Management of the Collateral. Each Grantor further agrees, that, during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) at the Administrative Agent’s request, it shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere, (ii) without limiting the foregoing, the Adminis- trative Agent also has the right to require that each Grantor store and keep any Collateral pending further action by the Administrative Agent and, while any such Collateral is so stored or kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be reasonably necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain such Collateral in good condition, (iii) until the Administrative Agent is able to Sell any Collat- eral, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to hold or use such Collateral to the extent that it deems reasonably appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed reasonably appropriate by the Administrative Agent and (iv) the Administrative Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of any Collateral and to enforce any of the Administrative Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), with re- spect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. The Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to any Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of any Grantor as against third parties with respect to any Collateral while such Collateral is in the possession of the Admin- istrative Agent.

-16- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 12:23 pm 18525483v6 of any Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and any other Secured Party hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, as set forth in the Credit Agreement, and only after such ap- plication and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any Re- quirement of Law, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. (e) Direct Obligation. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any right or remedy against, any Grantor, any other Loan Party or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or to pursue or ex- haust any right or remedy with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guaranty thereof. All of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and any other Secured Party under any Loan Document shall be cumulative, may be exercised individually or concurrently and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by any Requirement of Law. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisement, exten- sion, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety, now or hereaf- ter existing, arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of any Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. (f) Commercially Reasonable. To the extent that applicable Requirements of Law impose duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Administrative Agent to do any of the following: (i) fail to incur significant costs, expenses or other Liabilities reasonably deemed as such by the Administrative Agent to prepare any Collateral for disposition or otherwise to com- plete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposi- tion; (ii) fail to obtain Permits, or other consents, for access to any Collateral to Sell or for the collection or Sale of any Collateral, or, if not required by other Requirements of Law, fail to obtain Permits or other consents for the collection or disposition of any Collateral; (iii) fail to exercise remedies against account debtors or other Persons obligated on any Collateral or to remove Liens on any Collateral or to remove any adverse claims against any Collateral; (iv) advertise dispositions of any Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature or to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring any such Collateral, unless prohibited by applicable Requirements of Law; (v) exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other Persons obligated on any Collateral, directly or through the use of collection agencies or other collection specialists, hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of any Collateral, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature or, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Adminis- trative Agent, obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other pro- fessionals to assist the Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any Collateral, or utilize Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or

Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 6.1 is to provide a non-exhaustive list of ac- tions or omissions that are commercially reasonable when exercising remedies against any Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Secured Parties shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 6.1. Without limitation upon the foregoing, noth- ing contained in this Section 6.1 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Requirements of Law in the absence of this Section 6.1. (g) IP Licenses. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 6.1 (including in order to take possession of, collect, receive, assemble, pro- cess, appropriate, remove, realize upon, Sell or grant options to purchase any Collateral) at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies during the con- tinuation of an Event of Default, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, (i) an irrevocable, nonexclusive, worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor), including in such license the right to sublicense, use and practice any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor and access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all Software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof (which, in the case of Trademarks shall be subject to commer- cially reasonable quality control) and (ii) an irrevocable license (without payment of rent or other compen- sation to such Grantor) to use, operate and occupy all Real Property owned, operated, leased, subleased or otherwise occupied by such Grantor. Section 6.2 Accounts and Payments in Respect of General Intangibles. (a) In addition to, and not in substitution for, any similar requirement in the Credit Agree- ment, if required by the Administrative Agent at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payment of accounts or payment in respect of general intangibles, when collected by any Grantor, shall be promptly (and, in any event, within three (3) Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, in a Cash Collateral Ac- count, subject to withdrawal by the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 6.4. Until so turned over, such payment shall be held by such Grantor for the benefit of the Administrative Agent. Each such deposit of proceeds of accounts and payments in respect of general intangibles shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit. (b) At any time during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) each Grantor shall, upon the Administrative Agent’s reasonable request, deliver to the Administrative Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the Con- tractual Obligations and transactions that gave rise to any account or any payment in respect of general intangibles, including all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts and notify ac-

In addition, the Administrative Agent may at any time enforce such Grantor’s rights against such account debtors and obligors of general intangibles; and (iii) each Grantor shall take all actions, deliver all documents and provide all material information necessary and reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to ensure any Inter- net Domain Name is registered.

No Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any agree- ment giving rise to an account or a payment in respect of a general intangible by reason of or arising out of any Loan Document or the receipt by any Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any obligation of any Grantor under or pursuant to any agreement giving rise to an account or a payment in respect of a general intangible, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

(b) Proxies. In order to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights that it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions that it may be entitled to receive hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Administrative Agent all such proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as


 
-19- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 12:23 pm 18525483v6 the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (ii) without limiting the effect of clause (i) above, such Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote all or any part of the Pledged Collateral and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of the Pledged Collateral would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents of sharehold- ers, partners or members, as the case may be, calling special meetings of shareholders, partners or mem- bers, as the case may be, and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective, upon the occur- rence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice and without the necessity of any other action (including any transfer of any Pledged Collateral on the rec- ord books of the issuer thereof) by any other person (including the issuer of such Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof) during the continuance of an Event of Default and which proxy shall only terminate upon termination of all commitments and Obligations under the Loan Documents and the pay- ment in full of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification Obligations). (c) Authorization of Issuers. Each Grantor hereby expressly irrevocably authorizes and in- structs, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, without any further in- structions from such Grantor, each issuer of any Pledged Collateral pledged hereunder by such Grantor to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that states that an Event of Default is continuing and is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each Grantor agrees that such issuer shall be fully protected from Liabilities to such Grantor in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby or by Section 8.5 of the Credit Agreement, pay any dividend or make any other payment with respect to the Pledged Collateral directly to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees not to give such an instruction except upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the applicable Grantor and unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Section 6.4 Proceeds to be Turned over to and Held by Administrative Agent. Unless other- wise expressly provided in the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, all proceeds of any Collateral re- ceived during the continuance of an Event of Default by any Grantor hereunder in cash or Cash Equiva- lents shall be held by such Grantor for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Par- ties, and shall, promptly upon receipt by any Grantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received (with any necessary endorsement). All such proceeds of Collateral and any other proceeds of any Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in cash or Cash Equivalents shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Cash Collateral Account. All proceeds being held by the Administrative Agent in a Cash Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent) shall con- tinue to be held as collateral security for the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in the Credit Agreement. Section 6.5 Registration Rights. (a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and applicable state or foreign securities laws or otherwise or may determine that a public sale is impracticable, not desirable or not commercially reasonable and, accordingly, may resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers that shall be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may re- sult in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public

Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any covenant contained in this Sec- tion 6.5 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Ad- ministrative Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.5 shall be specifi- cally enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any de- fense against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing under the Credit Agreement. Section 6.6 Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of any Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorney employed by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, vot- ing right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation or entitlement to make any in- quiry respecting such authority. Section 7.4 Duty; Obligations and Liabilities. (a) Duty of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. The pow- ers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s in- terest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its Related Persons shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as fi- nally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehousemen, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other bailee if such Person has been selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith. (b) Obligations and Liabilities with respect to Collateral. No Secured Party and no Related Person thereof shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any Collateral.


 
-23- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 12:23 pm 18525483v6 The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder shall not impose any duty upon any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. ARTICLE VIII MISCELLANEOUS Section 8.1 Reinstatement. Each Grantor agrees that, if any payment made by any Loan Par- ty or other Person and applied to the Secured Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, re- scinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or re- paid, or the proceeds of any Collateral are required to be returned by any Secured Party to such Loan Par- ty, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Grantor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Collateral securing such liability and any guaranty guaranteeing such liabilities shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made. If, prior to any of the foregoing, (a) any Lien or other Collateral securing such Grantor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of the foregoing or (b) any provision of the Guaranty hereunder shall have been terminated, cancelled or surrendered, such Lien, other Collateral or provision shall be reinstat- ed in full force and effect and such prior release, termination, cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of any such Grantor in respect of any Lien or other Collateral securing such obligation or the amount of such payment. Section 8.2 Release of Collateral or Guarantors. (a) At the time provided in clause (b)(iii) of Section 10.10 (Release of Collateral or Guaran- tors) of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral shall be automatically released from the Lien created hereby and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Grantor hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instru- ment or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall automatically revert to the Grantors. Each Grantor is hereby authorized to file UCC amendments and all other documents, in- cluding any release forms with the Applicable IP Office at such time evidencing the termination of the Liens so released. At the request and expense of any Grantor following any such termination, the Admin- istrative Agent shall deliver to such Grantor any Collateral of such Grantor held by the Administrative Agent hereunder and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasona- bly request to evidence such termination. (b) If the Administrative Agent shall be directed or permitted pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 10.10(b) of the Credit Agreement to release any Lien or any Collateral, such Collateral shall be released from the Lien created hereby to the extent provided under, and subject to the terms and condi- tions set forth in, such clauses (i) and (ii). In connection therewith, the Administrative Agent, at the re- quest and expense of any Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such release. (c) At the time provided in Section 10.10(a) of the Credit Agreement, a Grantor shall be re- leased from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Securities of such Grantor shall be Sold in a transaction not prohibited by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent).


 
-24- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 12:23 pm 18525483v6 Section 8.3 Independent Obligations. The obligations of each Grantor hereunder are inde- pendent of and separate from the Secured Obligations and the Guaranteed Obligations. If any Secured Obligation or Guaranteed Obligation is not paid when due, or upon the occurrence and during the contin- uance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole election, proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Grantor and any Collateral to collect and recover the full amount of any Secured Obligation or Guaranteed Obligation then due, without first proceeding against any other Gran- tor, any other Loan Party or any other Collateral and without first joining any other Grantor or any other Loan Party in any proceeding. Section 8.4 No Waiver by Course of Conduct. No party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.6), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by any party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that such party would otherwise have on any future occasion. Section 8.5 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that schedules may be amended and supplemented at any time and from time to time in accordance with the terms hereunder, and annexes to this Agreement may be sup- plemented (but no existing provisions may be modified and no Collateral may be released) through Pledge Amendments and Joinder Agreements, in substantially the form of Annex l and Annex 2, respec- tively, in each case duly executed by the Administrative Agent and each Grantor directly affected thereby. Section 8.6 Additional Grantors; Additional Pledged Collateral. (a) Joinder Agreements. If, at the option of the Borrower or as required pursuant to Sec- tion 7.10 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall cause any Subsidiary that is not a Grantor to be- come a Grantor hereunder, such Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Join- der Agreement substantially in the form of Annex 2 and shall thereafter for all purposes be a party hereto and have the same rights, benefits and obligations as a Grantor party hereto on the Closing Date. The ex- ecution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Grantor as a party to this Agreement. (b) Pledge Amendments. To the extent any Pledged Collateral has not been delivered as of the Closing Date, such Grantor shall deliver a pledge amendment duly executed by the Grantor in sub- stantially the form of Annex 1 (each, a “Pledge Amendment”). Such Grantor authorizes the Administra- tive Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement. Section 8.7 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 11.11 of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Grantor shall be addressed to the Borrower’s notice address set forth in such Section 11.11. Section 8.8 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each party hereto and shall inure to the benefit of each party hereto and their successors and assigns, in each case, as permitted by the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that no Grantor may


 
-25- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 12:23 pm 18525483v6 assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Section 8.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or by Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. Section 8.10 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement being held illegal, invalid or un- enforceable in any jurisdiction shall not affect any part of such provision not held illegal, invalid or unen- forceable, any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Section 8.11 Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. Section 8.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO, OR DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN OR RELATED THERETO (WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO OTHER PARTY AND NO RELATED PERSON OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.12. Section 8.13 Actions Requiring FCC Approval. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, agrees that to the extent prior FCC approval is required pursuant to Communications Laws for (i) the operation and effectiveness of any grant, right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document or (ii) taking any action that may be taken by the Administrative Agent hereunder or un- der the other Loan Documents, such grant, right, remedy or actions will be subject to such prior FCC ap- proval having been obtained by or in favor of the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Par- ties, acknowledges that, to the extent required by the FCC, the voting rights in the Pledged Stock, as well as de jure, de facto and negative control over all FCC Licenses, shall remain with the Grantors even in the event of a Default until the FCC shall have given its prior consent to the exercise of securityholder rights by a purchaser at a public or private sale of the Pledged Stock or to the exercise of such rights by a re- ceiver, trustee, conservator or other agent duly appointed in accordance with applicable law. The Gran- tors shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Administrative Agent’s request, file or cause to be filed such applications for approval and shall take such other actions reasonably required by the Administrative Agent, as directed by and on behalf of the Secured Parties, to obtain such FCC approvals or consents as are necessary to transfer ownership and control to the Adminis- trative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, or their successors, assigns or designees of the FCC Li- censes held by the Grantors. To enforce the provisions of this subsection, the Administrative Agent is empowered to request the appointment of a receiver from any court of competent jurisdiction. Such re-


 
-26- CG&R Draft Last Saved: 03/31/2015 12:23 pm 18525483v6 ceiver shall be instructed to seek from the FCC its consent to an involuntary transfer of control of any such FCC License for the purpose of seeking a bona fide purchaser to whom control will ultimately be transferred. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Administra- tive Agent’s request, the Grantors shall further use their reasonable best efforts to assist in obtaining ap- proval of the FCC, if required, for any action or transactions contemplated hereby, including, without lim- itation, the preparation, execution and filing with the FCC of the assignor’s or transferor’s portion of any application for consent to the assignment of any FCC License or transfer of control necessary or appropri- ate under the Communications Laws for approval of the transfer or assignment of any portion of the Col- lateral, together with any FCC License. (b) The Grantors acknowledge that the assignment or transfer of such FCC Licenses is inte- gral to the Secured Parties’ realization of the value of the Collateral, that there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by the Grantors to comply with the provisions of this section and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, and therefore agree that this section may be specifically en- forced. (c) Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall, without first obtaining the approval of the FCC, take any action hereunder or under any other Security Document that would constitute or result in any assignment of an FCC License or any change of control of any Grantor if such assignment or change of control would require the approval of the FCC under applicable law (including FCC rules and regula- tions).

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
TOWNSQUARE MEDIA ANNOUNCES
SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF REFINANCING

Company Expects to Realize Annual Interest Expense
Savings of Approximately $11 million

Greenwich, CT - April 1, 2015 - Townsquare Media, Inc. (NYSE: TSQ) (the “Company”) today announced the closing of an offering of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.500% senior notes due 2023 (the “Notes”). The Company today also announced it has entered into a new $325 million senior secured credit facility, including a new seven-year, $275 million term loan facility (the “New Term Loan Facility”) and a new five-year, $50 million revolving credit facility (the “New Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the New Term Loan Facility, the “New Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The initial per annum interest rate applicable to the New Term Loan Facility is 4.25%, based on current LIBOR levels, a 1.00% LIBOR floor and an applicable margin of 325 basis points. The per annum interest rate applicable to the New Revolving Credit Facility is based on current LIBOR levels (or an alternative base rate) and an applicable margin of 250 basis points however, the New Revolving Credit Facility was undrawn at close.

Net proceeds from the offering of the Notes and the borrowings under the New Term Loan Facility, together with cash on hand, were used to complete the Company’s previously announced redemption of the outstanding 9.00% senior notes due 2019, in aggregate principal amount of $410.9 million, issued by Townsquare Radio, LLC and Townsquare Radio, Inc., two of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, and to entirely repay all amounts outstanding under its existing senior secured credit facilities, including both the term loan and revolving credit facility.

Based on forward LIBOR levels, the Company expects annual interest expense of approximately $31.2 million, representing annual savings of approximately $11 million as compared to annual interest expense payable in respect of the existing senior notes and the existing senior secured credit facilities, based on principal balances outstanding as of December 31, 2014.

The Notes were offered in the United States to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell the Notes, nor a solicitation for an offer to purchase the Notes.
