The 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 it, and that it will remain bound under this Section 201 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation. The Guarantor hereby agrees to pay, in addition to the amounts stated above, any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes in enforcing any rights under the Guarantee.

(b) The 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. The Guarantor waives notice of any default with respect to its Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Holder of the Notes 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 thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder of the Notes or the Trustee for the Obligations or any of them; or (v) the failure of any Holder of the Notes to exercise any right or remedy against the Guarantor.

(c) The Guarantor further agrees that the 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 of the Notes to any security held for payment of the Obligations.

(d) The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not 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 Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder of the Notes 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 Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

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the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder of the Notes upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

(f) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder of the Notes has at law or in equity against the Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, the 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 of the Notes 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) The Guarantor further agrees that, as between itself, on the one hand, and the Holders of the Notes, 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 Guarantee, 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 Guarantor for the purposes of the Guarantee.

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

Section 203. Limitation on Liability, Release and Discharge.

(a) The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of the Guarantor in respect of the obligations under the Guarantee, result in the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee 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 Guarantor shall be released from all its obligations under its Guarantee under this Article 2.

ARTICLE 3

The Guarantor shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person or, directly or indirectly, transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and properties and shall not permit any Person to consolidate with or merge into the Guarantor unless: (i) either (a) in the case of a merger or consolidation, the Company or the Guarantor is the surviving entity, or (b) the Person formed by such consolidation or merger or the Person which acquires by transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition all or substantially all of the assets and properties of the Company or the Guarantor other than the Guarantor (the “Successor Guarantor”) shall expressly assume by an indenture supplemental hereto all obligations of the Company or Guarantor under the Notes, the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture and this Second Supplemental Indenture, including, without limitation, the due and punctual payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all the Notes; (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default, or an event or condition which, after the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing; and (iii) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such transaction and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture comply with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

Section 302. Rights and Duties of Successor Corporation.
