GUARANTEE

SECTION 201. Guarantee.

(a) Each Additional Guarantor, together with the Existing Guarantor, hereby fully, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees (the “Guarantees”) 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 obligations of the Company to the Holders of the Notes or the Trustee under the Indenture (the “Obligations”). Each Additional Guarantor further agrees (to the extent permitted by law) that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Additional Guarantor, and that it will remain bound under this Section 201 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation. Each Additional Guarantor hereby agrees to pay, in addition to the amounts stated above, any and all expenses (including reasonable and documented counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes in enforcing any rights under the Guarantees.

 

2


Notwithstanding the above, the Guarantees will not be secured by any of the assets or properties of the Additional Guarantors. As a result, if the Additional Guarantors are required to pay under the Guarantees, the Holders of the Notes will be unsecured creditors of the Additional Guarantors. The Guarantees will not be subordinated to any of the Additional Guarantors’ other unsecured obligations. In the event of a bankruptcy or liquidation proceeding against any Additional Guarantor, the Guarantee will rank equally in right of payment with all of such Additional Guarantor’s other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations.

(b) Each Additional Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Additional Guarantor waives notice of any default with respect to the Obligations. To the extent permitted by law, the obligations of the Additional Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Holder of the Notes or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other Person under the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any extension; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture, the Notes or any other related agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder of the Notes or the Trustee for the Obligations; or (v) the failure of any Holder of the Notes or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against the Guarantors.

(c) Each Additional Guarantor further agrees that the Guarantees herein constitute guarantees of payment when due (and not guarantees of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder of the Notes or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Obligations.

(d) To the extent permitted by law, the obligations of the Additional Guarantors hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Additional Guarantors herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder of the Notes or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by 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 the Additional Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Additional Guarantors as a matter of law or equity.

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

 

3


(f) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder of the Notes or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any of the Additional Guarantors by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Additional Guarantor hereby promises to and will jointly and severally in conjunction with the other Guarantors, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders of the Notes or the Trustee, as applicable, an amount equal to the sum of:

 

  (i) the unpaid amount of such Obligations then due and owing; and

 

  (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law).

(g) Each Additional Guarantor further agrees that, as between itself, on the one hand, and the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee, on the other hand:

 

  (i) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in the Indenture for the purposes of the Guarantees, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby; and

 

  (ii) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Additional Guarantors for the purposes of the Guarantees.

SECTION 202. No Subrogation. Each Additional Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in respect of any Obligations until payment in full of all Obligations and any obligations to which the Obligations are subordinated. If any amount shall be paid to an Additional Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations and any obligations to which the Obligations are subordinated shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by that Additional Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, segregated from other funds of the Additional Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Additional Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Additional Guarantor (duly endorsed by such Additional Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Obligations or any obligations to which the Obligations are subordinated.

SECTION 203. Limitation on Liability, Contribution, Release and Discharge.

(a) The obligations of the Additional Guarantors hereunder will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Additional Guarantors and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of the Additional Guarantors in respect of the obligations under the Guarantees, result in the obligations of the Additional Guarantors under the Guarantees not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law.

(b) Concurrently with the discharge of the Notes under Section 401 of the Base Indenture, the defeasance of the Notes under Section 1202 of the Base Indenture, the “covenant defeasance” of the Notes under Section 1203 of the Base Indenture or the redemption in full of the Notes under Article 11 of the Base Indenture, the Additional Guarantors shall be released from all of their obligations under the Guarantees under this Article 2.

ARTICLE 3
