If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate upon written notice from the Company a replacement Security if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder must provide an indemnity bond or other indemnity, sufficient in the judgment of both the Company and the Trustee, to protect the Company and the Trustee from any loss which they may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge such Holder for their reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses in replacing a Security, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel.

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Company and is entitled to the benefit of this Indenture.

Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities that have been authenticated by the Trustee except those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 2.09, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because either of the Company or any of their Affiliates holds the Security.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 (other than a mutilated Security surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. A mutilated Security ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Security and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.07.

If on a Redemption Date or the Final Maturity Date the Paying Agent holds U.S. Legal Tender sufficient to pay all of the principal and interest due on the Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Securities owned by either of the Company, any of the Subsidiary Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates shall be disregarded, except that, for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Securities that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be disregarded.

The Trustee may require an Officers’ Certificate listing Securities owned by either of the Company, a Subsidiary Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates.

Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities upon receipt of a written order of the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate. The Officers’ Certificate shall specify the amount of temporary Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the temporary Securities are to be authenticated. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company consider appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate upon receipt of a written order of the Company pursuant to Section 2.02 definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities that the Company may have acquired in any matter whatever. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee, or at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent, and no one else, shall cancel and, unless otherwise directed in writing by the Company, shall dispose of all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation. Subject to Section 2.07, the Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that they had paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. If any Subsidiary Guarantor shall acquire any of the Securities, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.11.

If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities, it shall pay interest on overdue principal and on overdue installments of interest (to the extent lawful) (without grace periods) on a subsequent special record date, which date shall be at least ten Business Days prior to the payment date, at the rate of 2% per annum in excess of the rate shown on the Securities. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, 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 defaulted 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. At least 15 days before any such special record date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.

The Company in issuing the Securities will use a “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or other similar number, and, if such CUSIP, ISIN or other similar number shall be provided to the Trustee, the Trustee shall use the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar number in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders of the Securities; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar number printed in the notice or on the Securities, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers (if any) printed on the Securities. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in a CUSIP, ISIN or other similar number.

Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time as per our conversation last night on each Interest Payment Date and the Final Maturity Date, the Company shall have either delivered by wire transfer or check such interest or principal and interest, as the case may be, to Holders of the Securities at such Holders’ registered addresses or deposited with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds money sufficient to make cash payments due on such Interest Payment Date or the Final Maturity Date, as the case may be, in a timely manner which permits the Paying Agent to remit payment to the Holders of the Securities on such Interest Payment Date or the Final Maturity Date, as the case may be. If payment is made directly to Holders, the Company shall give notice to the Paying Agent and Trustee of such payment.

The Global Securities initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of such Depository, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depository and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Exhibit C.

Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Participants”) and any other owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depository, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under such Global Security, and the Depository may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. The Company, the Trustee and the Securities Registrar shall be entitled to deal with any depositary, and any nominee thereof, that is the Holder of any such Global Security for all purposes of this Indenture relating to such Global Security (including the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the owner or holder of a beneficial ownership interest in such Global Security) as the sole Holder of such Global Security and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of any such depositary with respect to such Global Security, for the records of any such depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of any such Global Security, for any transactions between such depositary and any participant in such depositary or between or among any such depositary, any such participant and/or any holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Security or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Security. 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 the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and Participants, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security.

Transfers of Global Securities shall be limited to transfers in whole, but not in part, to the Depository, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Securities may be transferred or exchanged for Physical Securities in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the provisions of Section 2.16. In addition, Physical Securities shall be delivered to all beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in Global Securities if (i) the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for any Global Security and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request from the Depository to issue Physical Securities.

In connection with the transfer of Global Securities as an entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.15, the Global Securities shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall upon written instructions from the Company authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depository in exchange for its beneficial interest in the Global Securities, an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Securities of authorized denominations.

Any Physical Security constituting a Restricted Security delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Security pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.15 shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.16, bear the Private Placement Legend.

The Holder of any Global Security may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Participants and Persons that may hold interests through Participants, to take any action which a Holder of Securities is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities.

Transfer and Exchange of Physical Securities. When Physical Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request:

to exchange such Physical Securities for an equal number of Physical Securities of other authorized denominations,

the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if the requirements under this Indenture as set forth in this Section 2.16 for such transactions are met; provided, however, that the Physical Securities presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange:

(I) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar or co-Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing; and

(II) in the case of Physical Securities the offer and sale of which have not been registered under the Securities Act, such Physical Securities shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable:

(A) if such Physical Security is being delivered to the Registrar by the Holder thereof for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto); or

(B) if such Physical Security is being transferred to a Qualified Institutional Buyer in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto); or

(C) if such Physical Security is being transferred to an Institutional Accredited Investor, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto) and a Transferee Certificate for Institutional Accredited Investors in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto; or

(D) if such Physical Security is being transferred in reliance on Regulation S, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto) and a Transferee Certificate for Regulation S Transfers in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto and an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company and the Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act; or

(E) if such Physical Security is being transferred in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto) and an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company and the Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act; or

(F) if such Physical Security is being transferred in reliance on another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto) and an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company and the Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act.

Restrictions on Exchange of a Physical Security for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Security. A Physical Security may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Security except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Registrar of a Physical Security, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Registrar, together with:

a certification, in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto, that such Physical Security is being transferred to a Qualified Institutional Buyer or an Institutional Accredited Investor; and

written instructions directing the Registrar to make, or to direct the Depository to make, an endorsement on the Global Security to reflect an increase in the aggregate amount of the Securities represented by the Global Security,

then the Registrar shall cancel such Physical Security and cause, or direct the Depository to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the Registrar, the number of Securities represented by the Global Security to be increased accordingly. If no Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall upon written instructions from the Company authenticate a new Global Security in the appropriate amount.

Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities. The transfer and exchange of Global Securities or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with this Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth herein) and the procedures of the Depository therefor.

If requested by law, any Person having a beneficial interest in a Global Security may upon request exchange such beneficial interest for a Physical Security. Upon receipt by the Registrar of written instructions or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depository from the Depository or its nominee on behalf of any Person having a beneficial interest in a Global Security and upon receipt by the Trustee of a written order or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depository or the Person designated by the Depository as having such a beneficial interest containing registration instructions and, in the case of any such registration of transfer or exchange of a beneficial interest in a Global Security the offer and sale of which have not been registered under the Securities Act, the following additional information and documents:

if such beneficial interest is being transferred to the Person designated by the Depository as being the beneficial owner, a certification from such Person to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto); or

if such beneficial interest is being transferred to a Qualified Institutional Buyer in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto); or

if such beneficial interest is being transferred to an Institutional Accredited Investor, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto) and a Transferee Certificate for Institutional Accredited Investors in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto; or

if such beneficial interest is being transferred in reliance on Regulation S, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto) and a Transferee Certificate for Regulation S Transfers in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto and an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company and the Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act; or

if such beneficial interest is being transferred in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto) and an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company and the Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act; or

if such beneficial interest is being transferred in reliance on another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto) and an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company and the Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act,

then the Registrar will cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the Registrar, the aggregate amount of the Global Security to be reduced and, following such reduction, the Company will execute and, upon receipt of an authentication order in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the transferee a Physical Security.

Securities issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.16(d) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depository, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Registrar in writing. The Registrar shall deliver such Physical Securities to the Persons in whose names such Physical Securities are so registered.

Restrictions on Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, a Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository.

Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Securities not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Securities that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Securities bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Securities that bear the Private Placement Legend unless, and the Trustee is hereby authorized to deliver Securities without the Private Placement Legend if, (i) there is delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee 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 or (ii) such Security has been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

General. By its acceptance of any Security bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such a Security acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Security set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Security only as provided in this Indenture.

The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer that may be imposed under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of any series pursuant to the terms thereof established as contemplated by Section 3.01 or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any such Security (including any transfers between or among any depositary, or its nominee, as a Holder of a Security issued in global form, any participants in such depositary or owners or holders of beneficial interests in any such Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of such Securities if and as may be so established in respect of such Securities, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements thereof.

The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.15 or this Section 2.16 in accordance with its usual procedures. 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 written notice to the Registrar.

The Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities and the Guarantees is hereby irrevocably designated as “senior indebtedness” or such other term denoting seniority for the purposes of any future Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors which the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor makes subordinate to any senior indebtedness or such other term denoting seniority.

If the Company elects to redeem Securities pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Securities, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed. The Company shall give notice of redemption to the Trustee at least 45 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee in writing), together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such redemption will comply with the conditions contained herein.

If fewer than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed or, if the Securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. If the Securities are listed on any national securities exchange, the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the requirements of such exchange in respect of any redemption. The Trustee shall make the selection from the Securities outstanding and not previously called for redemption and shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Security selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Securities in denominations equal to $1,000 may be redeemed only in whole. The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption.

At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed a notice of redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed. At the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the name of the Company and at the expense of the Company. Each notice for redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state:

that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any;

that, unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Securities called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date, and the only remaining right of the Holders of such Securities is to receive payment of the Redemption Price upon surrender to the Paying Agent of the Securities redeemed;

if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, and upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued;

if fewer than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Securities (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be outstanding after such partial redemption; and

the Paragraph of the Securities pursuant to which the Securities are to be redeemed.

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities called for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price (plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the Redemption Date), but installments of interest, the maturity of which is on or prior to the Redemption Date, shall be payable to Holders of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates.

On or before 11:00 A.M. on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent U.S. Legal Tender sufficient to pay the Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, of all Securities to be redeemed on that date.

If the Company complies with the preceding paragraph, then, unless the Company defaults in the payment of such Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, interest on the Securities to be redeemed will cease to accrue on and after the applicable Redemption Date, whether or not such Securities are presented for payment.

If money on deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will, subject to any applicable law, pay the money to the Company at Company’s request. Thereafter, Holders of Securities entitled to the money must look to the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors for payment unless an abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and the Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease. Any money earned on funds held in trust by the Trustee or the Paying Agent, if any, shall be remitted to the Company.

Upon surrender of a Security that is to be redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder a new Security or Securities equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

The Company shall pay the principal of and interest on the Securities in the manner provided in the Securities. An installment of principal of or interest on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent holds on that date U.S. Legal Tender designated for and sufficient to pay the installment.

The Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, the office or agency required under Section 2.03. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of 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, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the address of the Trustee set forth in Section 11.02. The Company hereby initially designates the corporate trust office of the Trustee as its office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any Restricted Payment (except as permitted below) if at the time of such Restricted Payment:

a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a consequence thereof;

the Company would be unable to incur an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.04(a); or

the amount of such Restricted Payment, when added to the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments made after the Issue Date, exceeds the sum of (A) 50% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Income (taken as one accounting period) from but not including May 31, 2004, to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such aggregate Consolidated Net Income shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such aggregate deficit) plus (B) the net Cash proceeds from the issuance and sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) after the Issue Date of the Company’s Capital Stock that is not Disqualified Stock, plus (C) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the Issue Date is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the lesser of (x) the cash return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any) and (y) the initial amount of such Restricted Investment plus (D) the amount of Restricted Investment outstanding in an Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Subsidiary of the Company in accordance with the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”.

The foregoing provisions will not prohibit (1) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at said date of declaration such payment would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture; (2) the redemption, repurchase, retirement or other acquisition of any Capital Stock

of the Company in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of, the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of other Capital Stock of the Company, so long as no default shall have occurred and be continuing, (other than any Disqualified Capital Stock); (3) the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other retirement of Subordinated Indebtedness in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of, the substantially concurrent issue and sale of (I) the Securities or (II) Capital Stock of the Company (other than (x) Disqualified Capital Stock, (y) Capital Stock sold to a Subsidiary of the Company and (z) Capital Stock purchased with the proceeds of loans from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries); (4) the making of Related Business Investments not otherwise treated as Investments with respect to a new Coker plant so long as the amount of such investments outstanding less the amount of cash received upon the disposition of any such investments or the return of capital thereon or committed does not exceed at any time $30.0 million; provided that no portion of such amount shall be utilized for any Investment unless the Company would be permitted at such time to incur an additional $1 of Additional Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness) pursuant to the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.04 and either (x) the new Coker plant is operational and already performing to approximate design specifications, or (y) to the extent an Investment has been made in the new Coker plant and the new Coker plant has thereafter been terminated or abandoned, in either case as evidenced by a Board Resolution, in which case, Investments may be made up to the amount of $30 million available under this subsection (4), less the Investment in the new Coker plant made pursuant to subsection (6); (5) the making of a Related Business Investment in joint ventures or Unrestricted Subsidiaries out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent issue and sale of Capital Stock of the Company (other than (x) Disqualified Stock, (y) Capital Stock sold to a Subsidiary of the Company and (z) Capital Stock purchased by members of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ management with the proceeds of loans from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries); and (6) Investments with respect to a new Coker plant not otherwise treated as Related Business Investments in an amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $25.0 million.

The amounts referred to in clauses (1), (2) and (5) of this paragraph shall be included as Restricted Payments in any computation made pursuant to clause (iii) above.

Not later than the date of making any Restricted Payment, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by this Section 4.03 were computed, which calculations shall be based upon the Company’s latest available financial statements.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including without limitation Acquired Indebtedness) and the Company will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to issue or have outstanding (except if issued to or owned beneficially and of record by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) any Capital Stock having a preference in liquidation or with respect to the payment of dividends; provided that (i) the Company and its Subsidiaries may incur Permitted Indebtedness and (ii) the Company may incur Indebtedness, if, after giving effect thereto, the Company’s Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio on the date thereof would be at least 2.0 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis as if the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness and the application of the net proceeds therefrom had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter period used to calculate the Company’s Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary unless such Indebtedness by its terms is also expressly made subordinated to the Securities in the case of the Company or the Company Subsidiary Guarantees, in the case of a Subsidiary.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.04, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (x) of the definition of Permitted Indebtedness, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 4.04, the Company, in its sole discretion, may classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.04. Indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility outstanding on the Issue Date will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Indebtedness.

Except as otherwise permitted by Article Five, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect their corporate existence and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of the Company’s Subsidiaries in accordance with the respective organizational documents of each Subsidiary and the material rights (charter and statutory) and franchises of the Company and each of the Company’s Subsidiaries.

The Company shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all Taxes levied or imposed upon them or any of the Subsidiaries or upon their or any of the Subsidiaries’ income, profits or property and (ii) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, in each case, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon the property of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries.

The Company will cause all material properties used in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary of the Company to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.07(a) shall prevent the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company from (i) discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith, desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company or of any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) making an Asset Sale that complies with Section 4.16 or (iii) entering into a transaction permitted by Section 5.01.

The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep at all times all of their properties which are of an insurable nature insured against loss or damage with insurers believed by the Company to be responsible to the extent that property of similar character usually is so insured by corporations similarly situated and owning like properties in accordance with good business practice.

The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, keep proper books of record and account, in which full and correct entries shall be made of all financial transactions and the assets and business of the Company and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with GAAP.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the close of each fiscal year and 45 days after the close of each fiscal quarter, an Officers’ Certificate (one of which Officers shall be the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company) stating that a review

of the activities of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under this Indenture and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors during such preceding fiscal year or fiscal quarter, as the case may be, have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every such covenant and no Default or Event of Default occurred during such period and at the date of such certificate no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, if such signers do know of any Default or Event of Default, the certificate shall describe its status with reasonable particularity. The Officers’ Certificate shall also notify the Trustee should the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor elect to change its fiscal year end. For purposes of this Section 4.08(a), performance by the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors of their obligations under this Indenture shall be determined without regard to any grace period or requirement of notice provided pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

The annual financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 4.10 shall be accompanied by a written report of the Company’s independent accountants (who shall be a firm of established national reputation) that in conducting their audit of such financial statements nothing has come to their attention that would lead them to believe that the Company has violated any provisions of Article Four, Five or Six of this Indenture insofar as they relate to accounting matters or, if any such violation has occurred, specifying the nature and period of existence thereof, it being understood that such accountants shall not be liable directly or indirectly to any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such violation.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within ten days of becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Indenture, an Officers’ Certificate specifying the Default or Event of Default and describing its status with particularity.

The Company shall comply, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to comply, with all applicable statutes, laws, rules, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all governmental bodies, domestic or foreign, in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its properties, except for such noncompliance as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or otherwise), properties, assets, results of operations or prospects of the Company and their Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, so long as any Securities are outstanding, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will file with the Commission, to the extent such filings are accepted by the Commission, and will furnish to the Holders of Senior Notes all quarterly and annual reports and other information, documents and reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act if the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors were required to file under such section. In addition, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will make such information available to prospective purchasers of the Securities, securities analysts and broker-dealers who request it in writing.

For so long as any Securities remain outstanding, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will furnish to the Holders and beneficial holders of Securities and to prospective purchasers of Securities designated by the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and to broker dealers, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4).

Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 4.10 or elsewhere in this Indenture is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors from paying all or any portion of the principal of and/or interest on the Securities as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenant that they will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

The Company shall not and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless (i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Subsidiary with an unrelated Person and (ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee (a) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction (or series of related transactions) involving aggregate payments in excess of $2.5 million but less than $5.0 million, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above and a Secretary’s Certificate which sets forth and authenticates a resolution that has been adopted by a vote of a majority of the Independent Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction or, if at the time fewer than four Independent Directors are then in office, a Secretary’s Certificate which sets forth and authenticates a resolution that has been adopted unanimously by the Company’s Board of Directors and (b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction (or series of related transactions) involving aggregate payments of $5.0 million or more, the certificates described in the preceding clause (a) and an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or such Subsidiary from a financial point of view issued by an Independent Financial Advisor; provided, however, that (v) the Management Agreements, (w) any employment agreement entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the past practice of the Company or such Subsidiary, (x) transactions exclusively between or among the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, (y) the payment of up to $2 million per fiscal year pursuant to the Servicing Agreement and (z) payments to Parent under the Tax Sharing Agreement shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing proviso, the Company shall not and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to pay any of its employees total annual compensation in excess of $350,000 unless (a) such amount of compensation has been approved by a vote of a majority of the Independent Directors, or (b) such employee’s total annual compensation in effect on the Issue Date exceeded $350,000. Any increase in total compensation over and above the amount previously approved in the case of clause (a) or the employee’s total annual compensation on the Issue Date in the case of clause (b), shall be approved by a vote of a majority of the Independent Directors, other than an increase at the end of any year in the amount of total compensation by an amount equal to the Index Amount for such year.

The Company’s Board of Directors shall at all times have at least four Independent Directors; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Independent Director resigns, dies or is terminated for any reason and the remaining number of Independent Directors is less than four, a replacement for that Independent Director shall be elected as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the date that is six months from the date of the resignation, death or termination of the Independent Director being replaced.

After the Issue Date, the election of any new Independent Directors must be approved by a unanimous vote of the Independent Directors then in office, provided that only a majority vote of the Independent Directors is required if at the time there are four or more Independent Directors in office. The Independent Directors shall approve such new Independent Director unless the Independent Directors determine that such person does not satisfy the requirements to serve as an Independent Director under this Indenture or such person is not able or willing to perform the obligations of the Independent Directors under this Indenture.

If at any time the number of Independent Directors then in office is less than two, then until such time as the number of Independent Directors exceeds two the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage in any transaction that this Indenture requires be approved by a vote of the Independent Directors.

Any transaction that this Indenture requires be approved by a vote of the Independent Directors shall be evidenced by a Secretary’s Certificate setting forth a resolution adopted by at least the requisite number of Independent Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, which resolution shall state that the transaction being approved is not unfair to the holders of the Securities. The failure to comply with this clause (d) shall have the effect of the Company failing to comply with the requirement in this Indenture to obtain a vote of the Independent Directors.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual Payment Restriction with respect to any of its Subsidiaries, except for (a) any such Payment Restriction in effect on the Issue Date under the Revolving Credit Facility or any similar Payment Restriction under any similar bank credit facility or any replacement thereof, provided that such similar Payment Restriction is no more restrictive than the Payment Restriction in effect on the Issue Date under the Revolving Credit Facility, (b) any such Payment Restriction under any agreement evidencing any Acquired Indebtedness that was permitted to be incurred pursuant to this Indenture, provided that such Payment Restriction only applies to assets that were subject to such restriction and encumbrances prior to the acquisition of such assets by the Company or its Subsidiaries and (c) any such Payment Restriction arising in connection with Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that any such Payment Restrictions that arise under such Refinancing Indebtedness are not, taken as a whole, more restrictive than those under the agreement creating or evidencing the Indebtedness being refunded or refinanced.

The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of the Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on any property or asset now owned or hereafter acquired, or on any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, except Permitted Liens, unless prior thereto or simultaneously therewith, the Securities are equally and ratably secured; provided that if such Indebtedness is Subordinated Indebtedness the Lien securing such Indebtedness shall be junior to the Lien securing the Securities.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, consummate any Asset Sale unless (i) the Company or its Subsidiaries receive consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets included in such Asset Sale, provided the aggregate Fair Market Value of the consideration received from an Asset Sale that is not in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents shall not, when aggregated with the Fair Market Value of all other non-cash or consideration received by the Company and its Subsidiaries from all previous Asset Sales since the Issue Date that has not, prior to such date, been converted into cash or Cash Equivalents, exceed 5% of the Consolidated Tangible Assets of the Company at the time of such Asset Sale under consideration; and provided, further, that with respect to any Asset Sale to Affiliates the Company shall receive consideration consisting of not less than 75% cash or Cash Equivalents and (ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Asset Sale complies with clause (i). The amount (without duplication) of any Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) of the Company or such Subsidiary that is expressly assumed by the transferee in such Asset Sale and with respect to which the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, is unconditionally released by the holder of such Indebtedness, shall be deemed to be cash or Cash Equivalents for purposes of clause (ii) and shall also be deemed to constitute a repayment of and a permanent reduction in, the amount of such Indebtedness for purposes of the following paragraph (b). If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this Section 4.16. A transfer of assets by the Company to a Subsidiary or by a Subsidiary to the Company or to a Subsidiary will not be deemed to be an Asset Sale and a transfer of assets that constitutes a Restricted Investment and that is permitted under Section 4.03 will not be deemed to be an Asset Sale.

In the event of the transfer of substantially all (but not all) of the property and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as an entirety to a Person in a transaction permitted under Section 5.01 the successor corporation shall be deemed to have sold the properties and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries not so transferred for purposes of this covenant, and shall comply with the provisions of this covenant with respect to such deemed sale as if it were an Asset Sale. In addition, the Fair Market Value of such properties and assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries deemed to be sold shall be deemed to be Net Available Proceeds for purposes of this covenant.

If the Company or any Subsidiary engages in an Asset Sale, the Company or such Subsidiary may either, no later than 360 days after such Asset Sale, (i) apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to repay amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility or any other Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) of the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, in each case, that the related loan commitment (if any) is thereby permanently reduced by the amount of such Indebtedness so repaid or (ii) invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in properties and assets that replace the properties or assets that were the subject of such Asset Sale or in other properties or assets that will be used in the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as it existed on the Issue Date. The amount of such Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this paragraph will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”

When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $10.0 million, the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase, from all Holders of the Senior Notes, an aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes equal to such Excess Proceeds as follows:

The Company will make an offer to purchase (a “Net Proceeds Offer”) from all Holders of the Securities the maximum principal amount (expressed as a multiple of $1,000) of Securities that may be purchased out of the amount (the “Payment Amount”) of such Excess Proceeds.

The offer prices for the Securities will be payable in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date such Net Proceeds Offer is consummated (the “Offered Price”). To the extent that the aggregated Offered Price of Securities tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Payment Amount relating thereto (such shortfall constituting a “Net Proceeds Deficiency”), the Company may use such Net Proceeds Deficiency, or a portion thereof, for general corporate purposes, subject to the limitations of Section 4.03.

If the aggregate Offered Price of Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn by Holders thereof exceeds the Payment Amount, Securities to be purchased will be selected on a pro rata basis.

Upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds remaining shall be zero.

The Company will not permit any Subsidiary to enter into or suffer to exist any agreement that would place any restriction of any kind (other than pursuant to law or regulation) on the ability of the Company to make a Net Proceeds Offer following any Asset Sale. The Company will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder, if applicable, in the event that an Asset Sale occurs and the Company is required to purchase Senior Notes as described above.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary unless (i) (a) the Company shall retain ownership, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Common Equity of such Subsidiary or (b) all of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary shall be sold or otherwise disposed of; and (ii) the Net Available Proceeds from any such sale or disposition are applied or otherwise treated in a manner consistent with the provisions described in Section 4.16.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, renew or extend any Sale and Leaseback Transaction unless: (i) the Company or such Subsidiary would be entitled, under Section 4.04 and Section 4.19 to incur Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Indebtedness with respect to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction, (ii) such Sale and Leaseback Transaction would not result in a violation of Section 4.16; and (iii) the Net Available Proceeds from any such Sale and Leaseback Transaction are applied in a manner consistent with the provisions described in Section 4.16.

If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall acquire or create another Subsidiary, then, such newly acquired or created Subsidiary will be required to execute a Subsidiary Guarantee, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, unless it has been designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall be obligated to make an offer to all Holders of Securities to purchase (a “Change of Control Offer”) all outstanding Securities and will purchase, on a business day not more than 60 days nor less than 30 days after the occurrence of the Change of Control (such purchase date being the “Change of Control Purchase Date”), all Securities properly tendered pursuant to such offer to purchase for a cash price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Senior notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Change of Control Purchase Date.

In order to effect a Change of Control Offer, the Company shall within 30 days after the occurrence of the Change of Control mail the Trustee who shall mail to each Holder of Securities (with a copy to the Trustee), a copy of the Change of Control Offer. The Change of Control Offer shall remain open from the time of mailing for at least 20 Business Days and until the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer, shall include such disclosures as are required by law and shall state:

the date of such Change of Control and, briefly, the events causing such Change of Control;

that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.20 and that all Securities tendered in the Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment;

the Change of Control Purchase Price for each Security, the date on which the Securities shall be purchased (such purchase date being the “Change of Control Purchase Date”), the last date on which the Change of Control Purchase Notice must be given, the date on which the Change of Control Offer expires and the names and addresses of any Paying Agent and the offices or agencies maintained by the Company for such purpose in The City of New York;

that any Security not tendered for payment will continue to accrue interest in accordance with the terms thereof;

that, unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price, any Security accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Purchase Date;

that Holders electing to have Securities purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender their Securities to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Change of Control Purchase Date and, except in the case of a Global Security, must complete any form letter of transmittal (the “Change of Control Purchase Notice”) proposed by the Company and acceptable to the Trustee and the Paying Agent;

that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Change of Control Purchase Date, a telex or facsimile transmission (confirmed by overnight delivery of the original thereof) or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Securities the Holder delivered for purchase, the Security certificate number (if any) and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Securities purchased;

that Holders whose Securities are purchased only in part will be issued Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered;

the instructions that Holders must follow in order to tender their Securities and the procedures for withdrawing a Change in Control Purchase Notice; and

the most recent annual and quarterly reports of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act (or, if the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors are not required to file any such reports with the Commission, the comparable reports prepared pursuant to Section 4.10), a description of material developments in the Company’s business, information with respect to pro forma historical financial information after giving effect to such Change of Control and such other information concerning the circumstances and relevant facts regarding such Change of Control and Change of Control Offer as would be material to a Holder of Securities in connection with the decision of such Holder as to whether or not it should tender Securities pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, including, but not limited to, the events causing such Change of Control and the date such Change of Control is deemed to have occurred.

On the Change of Control Purchase Date, the Company shall (i) accept for payment Securities or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent money in United States dollars, in immediately available funds, sufficient to pay the Change of Control Purchase Price of all Securities or portions thereof so tendered and accepted (including any Additional Amounts or Reimbursement Payments payable in respect thereof) and (iii) deliver to the Trustee the Securities so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Securities or portions thereof tendered to and accepted for payment by the Company. The Paying Agent shall promptly disburse or deliver to the Holders of Securities so accepted payment in an amount equal to such Change of Control Purchase Price, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail or deliver to such Holders a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of each Security surrendered. Any Securities not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer not later than the first Business Day following the Change of Control Purchase Date.

The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws or regulations, in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.20, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this Section 4.20 by virtue thereof.

Prior to the commencement of a Change of Control Offer, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (to the extent matters of law are involved) stating that all conditions precedent to such Change of Control Offer have been complied with.

The Company shall not, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, (i) consolidate or merge with or into (other than a merger with a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary solely for the purpose of changing the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation to one of the States of the United States), or sell, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of or assign all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), or assign any of its obligations under the Securities or this Indenture, to any Person or (ii) adopt a Plan of Liquidation unless, in either case: (a) the Person formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to which such sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition or assignment shall be made (or, in the case of a Plan of Liquidation, any Person to which assets are transferred) (collectively, the “Successor”) is a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia and the Successor assumes by supplemental indenture in a form satisfactory to the Trustee all of the obligations of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture; (b) immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations as set forth in clause (a) above and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (c) immediately after and giving effect to such transaction and the assumption of the obligations set forth in clause (a) above and the incurrence of any Indebtedness to be incurred in connection therewith, and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis, the Company or the Successor, as the case may be, could incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.04(a); and (d) each Subsidiary Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions described above, shall have by amendment to its Guarantee confirmed that its Guarantee of the Securities shall apply to the obligations of the Company or the Successor under the Securities and this Indenture. For purposes of this Section 5.01, any Indebtedness of the Successor which was not Indebtedness of the Company immediately prior to the transaction shall be deemed to have been incurred in connection with such transaction.

The Company shall give the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and if a supplemental indenture is required, a legal opinion that the merger, consolidation, or sale of assets contemplated in this Section 5.01 complies with this Indenture.

Upon any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, lease or transfer in accordance with the foregoing, the Successor formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such conveyance, lease or transfer is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company entering into or making such consolidation, merger, conveyance, lease or transfer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such Successor had been named as the Company herein, and thereafter (except in the case of a sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition) the predecessor corporation will be relieved of all further obligations and covenants under this Indenture, the Securities and the Registration Rights Agreement. For all purposes of this Indenture and the Securities (including the provisions of this Article Five and Article Four), Subsidiaries of any Successor will, upon such transaction or series of transactions, become Subsidiaries or Unrestricted Subsidiaries as provided pursuant to definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary and all Indebtedness, and all Liens on property or assets, of the Company and the Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions will be deemed to have been incurred upon such transaction or series of transactions.

failure by the Company to pay interest on any of the Securities when it becomes due and payable and the continuance on any such failure for 30 days; or

failure by the Company to pay the principal or premium, if any, on any of the Securities when it becomes due and payable, whether at stated maturity, upon redemption, upon acceleration or otherwise; or

the Company shall fail to comply with any of its agreements or covenants in Section 4.13, 4.16 or 4.20; or

failure by the Company to comply with any other covenant in this Indenture and continuance of such failure for 30 days after notice of such failure has been given to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding; or

failure by the Company or any of their Subsidiaries to make any payment after the expiration of any applicable grace period in respect of any Indebtedness of the Company or any of such Subsidiaries that has an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $5.0 million or more; or

a default under any Indebtedness of either of the Company or any Subsidiary of a Company, whether such Indebtedness now exists or hereafter shall be created, if (A) such default results in the holder or holders of such Indebtedness causing the Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity and (B) the outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the outstanding principal amount of any other such Indebtedness the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregate $5.0 million or more at any one time; or

one or more final judgments or orders that exceed $5.0 million in the aggregate for the payment of money have been entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction against the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company and such judgment or judgments have not been satisfied, stayed, annulled or rescinded within 60 days of being entered; or

except as permitted by this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect or any Subsidiary Guarantor repudiates its obligations under any Guarantee; or

the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor (a) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, (b) commences a voluntary case or proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law with respect to itself, (c) consents to the entry of a judgment, decree or order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, (d) consents to the appointment of a Custodian (as defined below) of it or for substantially all of its property, (e) consents to or acquiesces in the institution of a bankruptcy or an insolvency proceeding against it, (f) makes a general assignment

for the benefit of its creditors or (g) takes any partnership or corporate action, as the case may be, to authorize or effect any of the foregoing; or

a court of competent jurisdiction enters a judgment, decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor in an involuntary case or proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, which shall (a) approve as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition in respect of an Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, (b) appoint a Custodian of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor or for substantially all of any of their property or (c) order the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs; and such judgment, decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days.

For purposes of this Article Six, the term “Custodian” means any receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, trustee, assignee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official charged with maintaining possession or control over property for one or more creditors, whether under any Bankruptcy Law or otherwise.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clauses (ix) or (x)) shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee, by written notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by written notice to the Company and Trustee may declare all amounts owing under the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Upon such declaration of acceleration, the aggregate principal amount of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Securities shall immediately become due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clauses (ix) or (x) above with respect to Company occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on, all the Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may (and, at the direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities, subject to Section 7.02(f), shall) pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities, this Indenture, or the Guarantees.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee, or any Securityholder 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 to the extent permitted by law.

Subject to Sections 6.07 and 9.02, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities waive any past Defaults under this Indenture, except a Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of Holders have consented to such waiver and attaching copies of such consents upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely.

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it hereunder. Subject to Section 7.01, however, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that the Trustee reasonably believes conflicts with any law or this Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder of Securities, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by it which is not inconsistent with such direction; and provided, further, that this provision shall not affect the rights of the Trustee set forth in Section 7.01(d).

In the event the Trustee takes any action or follows any direction pursuant to this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification from the Company satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by taking such action or following such direction.

A Holder of Securities may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Securities unless:

the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

the Holder or Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity or security; and

during such 60-day period the Holder or Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities do not give the Trustee a direction which, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with the request.

A Holder of Securities may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of Securities or to obtain a preference or priority over such other Holder of Securities.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of or premium, if any, and interest on a Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security, 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 the Holder.

If an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 6.01 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company or any other obligor on the Securities for the whole amount of principal, accrued interest and other amounts remaining

unpaid, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate per annum borne by the Securities and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, legal fees, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, and its agents, nominees, custodians and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.07) and the Holders of Securities allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, their creditors or their property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceedings is hereby authorized by each Holder of Securities to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Securities, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation, expenses, legal fees, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents, nominees, custodians and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of Securities any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of Securities in any such proceeding.

Any money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article Six, and any money or other property distributable in respect of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture after an Event of Default shall be applied in the following order:

First: to the Trustee (including any predecessor Trustee) for amounts due under Section 7.07;

Second: if the Holders of Securities are forced to proceed against the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor or any other obligor on the Securities directly without the Trustee, to such Holders for their collection costs;

Third: to Holders of Securities for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for interest;

Fourth: to Holders of Securities for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal; and

Fifth: to the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as their respective interests may appear.

The Trustee, upon prior notice to the Company, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Securities pursuant to this Section 6.10.

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 discretion 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 litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of Securities pursuant to Section 6.07, or a suit by a Holder or Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities.

No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article VI or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

If an Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer (except in the case of Sections 7.05 and 7.06, as used in this Article Seven, “Trustee” shall mean the Trustee in its capacity as Trustee under this Indenture) has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of 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 his own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holder of Securities, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it.

Except during the continuance of an Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer,

the Trustee need perform only those duties as are specifically set forth herein and no others and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

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 or opinions and

such other documents furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; however, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee unless it is proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

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 6.02 or 6.05.

No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or to take or omit to take any action under this Indenture or take any action at the request or direction of Holders of Securities if it shall have grounds for believing that repayment of such funds is not assured to it or it does not receive an indemnity satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against such risk, liability, loss, fee or expense which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to this Section 7.01.

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. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting on any document 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 stated in the document.

Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, or both, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 11.05. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.

The Trustee may act through its attorneys, agents, custodians and nominees and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any attorney, agent, custodian or nominee (other than such a Person who is an employee of the Trustee) appointed with due care.

The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers.

The Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture 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 reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby.

The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any matter, including any Default or Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice thereof is received by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Department and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture.

in the event that the Trustee is also acting as Paying Agent, Security Registrar or in any other capacity hereunder, the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article Seven, including without limitation, its rights to be indemnified, shall also be afforded to such Paying Agent, Security Registrar or in such other capacity.

the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness 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 investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, 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.

the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

the Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may make loans to, accept deposits from or perform services for and may otherwise deal with either of the Company, any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, the Trustee is subject to the provisions of Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors in this Indenture, the Securities or other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The Trustee makes no representations with respect to and shall not be responsible for the effectiveness or adequacy of this Indenture. The Trustee shall not be responsible for independently ascertaining or maintaining such validity, if any, and shall be fully protected in relying upon certificates and opinions delivered to it in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

If a Default or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and a Responsible Officer receives actual notice of such event, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder of Securities, as their names and addresses appear on the list of Holders of Securities described in Section 2.05, notice of the uncured Default or Event of Default within 30 days after the Trustee receives such notice. Except in the case of a Default or an Event of Default in payment of principal amount, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security, including the failure to make payment on (i) any Change of Control Purchase Date pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or (ii) any Purchase Date pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors, of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders of Securities.

This Section 7.06 shall not be operative as a part of this Indenture until this Indenture is qualified under the TIA and, until such qualification, this Indenture shall be construed as if this Section 7.06 were not contained herein.

Within 60 days after each May 15 of each year beginning with 1998, the Trustee shall, to the extent that any of the events described in TIA § 313(a) occurred within the previous twelve months, but not otherwise, mail to each Holder of Securities a brief report dated as of such date that complies with TIA § 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA §§ 313(b), 313(c) and 313(d).

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders of Securities shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the Commission and each securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed.

The Company shall notify a Responsible Officer of the Trustee if the Securities become listed on any securities exchange or of any delisting thereof.

The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and its services hereunder. 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 disbursements, expenses and advances (including fees and expenses of counsel) incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services, except any such disbursements, expenses and advances as may be attributable to the Trustee’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, legal fees, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents, accountants, experts, nominees, custodians and counsel and any taxes or other expenses incurred by a trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof.

The Company shall indemnify the Trustee, its directors, officers and employees and each predecessor trustee for, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on its or their part arising out of or in connection with the administration of this trust and the Trustee’s duties under this Indenture, including the reasonable expenses and attorneys’ fees of defending themselves against any claim of liability arising hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee for which it may seek indemnity. However, the 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 cooperate in the defense (and may employ its own counsel) at the Company’s expense. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without their

written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee as a result of the violation of this Indenture by the Trustee if such violation arose from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Trustee.

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a senior Lien prior to the Securities against all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, other than money held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clauses (ix) and (x) of Section 6.01 occurs, the expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) and the compensation for the services shall be preferred over the status of the Holders in a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law and are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. The Company’s obligations under this Section 7.07 and said lien and any claim arising hereunder shall survive the resignation or removal of any Trustee, the discharge of the Company’s obligations pursuant to Article Eight, any rejection or termination under any Bankruptcy Law and the termination of this Indenture.

The Trustee may resign at any time (subject to the further provisions of this Section 7.08) by so notifying the Company in writing. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Company and the Trustee in writing and may appoint a successor trustee with the Company’s consent. The Company may remove the Trustee if:

a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

the Trustee becomes legally incapable of acting with respect to its duties hereunder.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall notify each Holder of Securities of such event and shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer, after payment of all sums then owing to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.07, all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the Lien provided in Section 7.07, 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; provided, however, that no Trustee under this Indenture shall be liable for any act or omission of any successor Trustee. A successor Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder of Securities.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Securityholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee and the Company shall pay to any such replaced or removed Trustee all amounts owed under Section 7.07 upon such replacement or removal.

If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall, if such resulting, surviving or transferee corporation is otherwise eligible hereunder, be the successor Trustee. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirement of TIA §§ 310(a)(1) and 310(a)(5). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) (a) the Indenture dated as of June 9, 1997, among the Company, Kiantone Pipeline Corporation, Kiantone Pipeline Company, United Jet Center, Inc., United Refining Company of Pennsylvania, Kwik Fill, Inc., Independent Gasoline and Vulcan Asphalt Refining Company, as subsidiary guarantors, and IBJ Shroder Bank & Trust Company, as trustee, under which the Company’s 10³/4 % Senior Notes due 2014 were issued and (b) any indenture or indentures under which other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in other securities, of the Company are outstanding, if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met.

The Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee hereunder, shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except that the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations under Section 8.03 shall survive) when all outstanding Securities theretofore authenticated and issued have been delivered (other than destroyed, lost or stolen Securities that have been replaced or paid) to the Trustee for cancellation and the Company have paid all sums payable hereunder.

The Company, at its option, (i) will be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to the Securities (except for certain obligations of the Company to register the transfer or exchange of such Securities, replace stolen, lost or mutilated Securities, maintain paying agencies and holding moneys for payment in trust) or (ii) need not comply with certain of the restricted covenants with respect to this Indenture, if the Company deposits with the Trustee, in trust, U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof that, through the payment of interest and premium thereon and principal amount at maturity in respect thereof in accordance with their terms, will be sufficient to pay all the principal amount at maturity of and interest and premium on the Securities on the dates such payments are due in accordance with the terms of such Securities as well as the Trustee’s fees and expenses if the Company delivers to the Trustee:

an Opinion of Counsel and in connection with a discharge pursuant to clause (i) above, a private letter ruling issued to the Company by the Internal Revenue Service (the “Service”), to the effect that the holders of the Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and related defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been exercised;

subject to certain customary qualifications, an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that funds so deposited will not be subject to avoidance under applicable Bankruptcy Law; and

an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Company has complied with all conditions precedent to the defeasance.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel required by clause (A) above need not be delivered if all Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (i) have become due and payable, (ii) will become due and payable on the maturity date within one year or (iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangement satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company. Immediately after such event, or after the expiration of the period of time referred to in the Opinion of counsel referred to in clause (B) above, this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, on demand of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging confirmation of and discharge under this Indenture.

However, the Company’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.10, 2.12, 2.13, 4.01, 4.02 and 6.07 and Article Seven and the Company’s, the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 8.03 shall survive until the Securities are no longer outstanding. Thereafter, only the Company’s obligations in Section 7.07 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Sections 8.03 and 8.04 shall survive. Nothing contained in this Article Eight shall abrogate any of the rights, obligations or duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.

After such irrevocable deposit made pursuant to this Section 8.01 and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth herein, the Trustee upon request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture except for those surviving obligations specified above.

In order to have money available on a payment date to pay principal amount of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities, the U.S. Government Obligations shall be payable as to principal or interest on or before such payment date in such amounts as will provide the necessary money. U.S. Government Obligations shall not be callable at the issuer’s option.

The Trustee or a trustee satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to Section 8.01. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal amount of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities.

The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company upon delivery of an Officer’s Certificate stating that such payment does not violate the terms of this Indenture any excess money or securities held by them or if deposited with the Trustee by any Subsidiary Guarantor, to such Subsidiary Guarantor at any time.

The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, upon delivery of an Officer’s Certificate stating that such payment does not violate the terms of this Indenture any money held by them for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such payment shall have become due; provided, however, that the Company shall have either caused notice of such payment to be mailed to each Holder entitled thereto no less than 30 days prior to such repayment or within such period shall have published such notice in a financial newspaper of widespread circulation published in the City of New York. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Indenture 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, then and only then the Company’s and each Subsidiary Guarantor’s, if any, obligations under this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had been made pursuant to this Indenture until such time as the Trustee is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Indenture; provided, however, that if the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, have made any payment of principal amount of, premium, if any, or interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (when authorized by Board Resolutions), and the Trustee, together, may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees, without notice to or consent of any Securityholder,

to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provided that such amendment or supplement does not, in the opinion of the Company, adversely affect the rights of any Holder;

to evidence the succession in accordance with Article Five hereof of another Person to a Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of a Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor herein and in the Securities or a Guarantee, as the case may be;

to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities;

to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holders of Securities hereunder or thereunder;

to mortgage, pledge or grant a security interest in favor of the Trustee as additional security for the payment and performance of obligations under this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees;

to comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; or

to add or release any Subsidiary Guarantor strictly in accordance with another provision of this Indenture expressly providing for such addition or release;

provided that each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate, each stating that such amendment or supplement complies with the provisions of this Section 9.01.

Subject to Section 6.07, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (when authorized by Board Resolutions) and the Trustee, together, with the written consent (which may include consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Securities) of the Holder or Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees without notice to any other Holders of Securities. Subject to Section 6.07, the Holder or Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities may by written consent (which may include consents obtained in connection with a tender offer for Securities) waive any existing Default (other than any continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal amount of, premium, if any, or interest on Securities) under, or compliance by the Company with any provision of, this Indenture or the Securities without notice to any other Holder of Securities.

Without the consent of each Holder of Securities affected no such amendment, supplement or waiver, including a waiver pursuant to Section 6.04, may:

change the principal amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver of any provision of this Indenture, the Securities, the Guarantees;

reduce the rate or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Security;

change the Final Maturity Date of any Security, affect the terms of any scheduled payment of interest on or principal of the Securities, or alter the redemption provisions contained in this Indenture or the Securities in any manner adverse to any Holder;

make any change in provisions of this Indenture protecting the right of each Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Security on or after the due date thereof or to bring suit to enforce such payment, or permitting Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities to waive Defaults or Events of Default;

make the principal of, or the interest on any Security payable in money other than as provided for in this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees as in effect on the date hereof;

make any changes in the provisions described in Section 4.20 or in the obligations of the Company to make a Net Proceeds Offer or Special Offer or the definitions related thereto that could adversely affect the rights of any Holder of the Securities; or

take any action that would subordinate the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees to any other Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, respectively, or otherwise affect the ranking of the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Securities affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

From the date on which this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, every amendment, waiver or supplement of this Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees shall comply with the TIA as then in effect and to the extent applicable thereto.

Until an amendment, waiver or supplement becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of Securities is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security or portion of his Security by notice to the Trustee or the Company received before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Securities have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Securities entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver, which record date shall be at least 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders of Securities at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (1) through (9) of Section 9.02, in which case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind only each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security; provided that any such waiver shall not impair or affect the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on a Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates without the consent of such Holder.

If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms.

The Trustee may execute any amendment, supplement or waiver to any agreement authorized pursuant to this Article Nine; provided that (i) the form of any amendment, supplement or waiver or permitted shall be satisfactory to the Trustee and (ii) the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any such amendment, supplement or waiver which affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. The Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate of the Company each stating, in addition to the matters set forth in Section 11.04, that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article Nine is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Such Opinion of Counsel shall be at the expense of the Company, and the Trustee shall have a Lien under Section 7.07 for any such expense.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally guarantees (such guarantee to be referred to herein as a “Guarantee”) to each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns that: (i) the principal amount of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities will be promptly paid in full when due, subject to any applicable grace period, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise and interest on the overdue principal and interest on any overdue interest, to the extent lawful, of the Securities and all other Obligations of the Company to the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or of any such other Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, subject to any applicable grace period, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, subject, however, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, to the limitations set forth in Section 10.03. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Securities with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, and action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Securities, this Indenture and in this Guarantee. If any Holder of the Securities or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, any amount paid by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between each Subsidiary Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders of the Securities and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration against the Company in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Six, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Subsidiary Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee.

In case any provision of this Article Ten or any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

It is the intention of all parties hereto that the guarantee by each Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar Federal, state or

foreign law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders of Securities and each Subsidiary Guarantor incorporated in one of the States of the United States hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to Section 10.04, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting such fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Subsidiary Guarantors agree, inter se, that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any Subsidiary Guarantor (a “Funding Subsidiary Guarantor”) under its Guarantee, such Funding Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from all other Subsidiary Guarantors in a pro rata amount based on the Adjusted Net Assets (as defined below) of each Subsidiary Guarantor (including the Funding Subsidiary Guarantor) for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by that Funding Subsidiary Guarantor in discharging the Company’s obligations with respect to the Securities or any other Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations with respect to its Guarantee. “Adjusted Net Assets” of such Subsidiary Guarantor at any date shall mean the lesser of (x) the amount by which the fair value of the property of such Subsidiary Guarantor exceeds the total amount of liabilities, including, without limitation, contingent liabilities (after giving effect to all other fixed and contingent liabilities incurred or assumed on such date (other than liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor under Indebtedness subordinated to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee)), but excluding liabilities under the Guarantee, of such Subsidiary Guarantor at such date and (y) the amount by which the present fair salable value of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor at such date exceeds the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor on its debts (after giving effect to all other fixed and contingent liabilities incurred or assumed on such date and after giving effect to any collection from any Subsidiary of such Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such Subsidiary under its Guarantee, if any), excluding debt in respect of the Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor, as they become absolute and matured.

Until all Guarantee Obligations are paid in full, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claims or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against the Company that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under its Guarantee and this Indenture, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Holder of Securities against the Company, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Company, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Securities shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall have been deemed to have been paid to such Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Holders of the Securities, and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders to be credited and applied upon the Securities, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the waiver set forth in this Section 10.05 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

To evidence its guarantee to the Holders of Securities set forth in this Article Ten, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees to execute its Guarantee in substantially the form included in the Securities, which shall be endorsed on each Security ordered to be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in this Article Ten shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Guarantee. Each such Guarantee shall be signed on behalf of each Subsidiary Guarantor by two Officers. Such signatures upon the Guarantee may be by manual or facsimile signature of such officers and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Guarantee, and in case any such officer who shall have signed the Guarantee shall cease to be such officer before the Security on which such Guarantee is endorsed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Company, such Security nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the Person who signed the Guarantee had not ceased to be such officer of the Subsidiary Guarantor.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive each such Subsidiary Guarantor from performing its Guarantee as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) such Subsidiary Guarantor hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies, or conflicts with another provision which is required to be included in this Indenture by the TIA, the required provision shall control.

Any notices or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be sufficiently given if made by hand delivery, by telecopier or registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

Each of the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee by written notice to each other such Person may designate additional or different addresses for notices to such Person. Any notice or communication to the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given or made as of the date so delivered if personally delivered; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and five (5) calendar days after mailing if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid (except that a notice of change of address shall not be deemed to have been given until actually received by the addressee).

Any notice or communication mailed to a Holder of Securities shall be mailed to him by first-class mail or other equivalent means at his address as it appears on the registration books of the Registrar and shall be sufficiently given to him if so mailed within the time prescribed.

Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Securityholder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders of Securities. If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

Holders of Securities may communicate pursuant to TIA § 312(b) with other Holders of Securities with respect to their rights under this Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees. The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and any other Person shall have the protection of TIA § 312(c).

Upon any request or application by the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, shall furnish to the Trustee:

an Officers’ Certificate stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and

an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent have been complied with.

Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture, other than the Officers’ Certificate required by Section 4.08, shall include:

a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;

a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

a statement that, in the opinion of such person, he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of each such person, such condition or covenant has been complied with; provided, however, that with respect to matters of fact an Opinion of Counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate or certificates of public officials.

The Trustee, Paying Agent or Registrar may make reasonable rules for its functions.

If a payment date is not a Business Day, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such payment date.

THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES AND THE GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AS APPLIED TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each of the parties hereto agrees to submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the U.S. Federal Courts sitting in the City of New York for the purposes of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture. The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby designate and appoint CT Corporation System, 1633 Broadway, New York, New York 10019, as its agent to receive on its behalf service of all process in any proceedings in any court sitting in New York, New York, such service being hereby acknowledged by the Company and Subsidiary Guarantors to be effective and binding service in every respect. A copy of any such process so served shall be mailed by registered mail to the Company and Subsidiary Guarantors, at their respective address specified in Section 11.02 hereof, except that unless otherwise provided by applicable law, any failure to mail such copy shall not affect the validity of service of process. If any agent appointed by the Company and Subsidiary Guarantors refuses to accept service, the Company and Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree that service upon them by mail shall constitute sufficient notice. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of the Trustee to bring proceedings against the Company and Subsidiary Guarantors in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

This Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

A director, officer, employee, its direct or indirect stockholder or incorporator, as such, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Securities, this Indenture or the Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creations. Each Holder of Securities by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. Such waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities.

All agreements of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors in this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors.

All parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy or counterpart shall be an original, but all of them together shall represent the same agreement.

In case any one or more of the provisions in this Indenture, in the Securities or in the Guarantees shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the provisions hereof shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted by law.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed as of the date first written above.

“THIS SECURITY (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, U.S. PERSONS, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE NEXT SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE HOLDER:

(1) REPRESENTS THAT (A) IT IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) (A “QIB”), OR (B) IT IS ACQUIRING THIS SECURITY IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT;

(2) AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT RESELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY EXCEPT (A) TO THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, (B) TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QIB PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QIB IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A, (C) IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 903 OR 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (D) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (E) TO AN INSTITUTIONAL “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(A)(1), (2), (3) OR (7) OF REGULATION D UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) THAT, PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISHES THE TRUSTEE A SIGNED LETTER CONTAINING CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AND AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY (THE FORM OF WHICH CAN BE OBTAINED FROM THE TRUSTEE) AND, IF SUCH TRANSFER IS IN RESPECT OF AN AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF SECURITIES LESS THAN $250,000, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, IF THE COMPANY SO REQUESTS, THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT, (F) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (AND BASED UPON AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY), OR (G) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND, IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE JURISDICTION; AND

(3) AGREES THAT IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THIS SECURITY OR AN INTEREST HEREIN IS TRANSFERRED A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND.

AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS “OFFSHORE TRANSACTION” AND “UNITED STATES” HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY RULE 902 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS SECURITY CONTAINS A PROVISION REQUIRING THE TRUSTEE TO REFUSE TO REGISTER ANY TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY IN VIOLATION OF THE FOREGOING.”

United Refining Company, a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to or registered assigns, the principal sum of $200,000,000 United States Dollars, on August 15, 2012.

Reference is made to the further provisions of this Security contained herein, which will for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Security to be signed manually or by facsimile by its duly authorized officers.


UNITED REFINING COMPANY

By:
		Name:
		Title:

By:
		Name:
		Title:

This is one of the 10¹/2% Senior Notes due 2012, Series A, described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above. The Company will pay interest semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year (the “Interest Payment Date”), commencing February 15, 2005. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from August 6, 2004. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Securities plus 2% and on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful.

The Company shall pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date even if the Securities are cancelled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after such Record Date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts (“U.S. Legal Tender”). However, the Company may pay principal and interest by wire transfer of U.S. Federal funds, or interest by check payable in such U.S. Legal Tender. The Company may deliver any such interest payment to the Paying Agent or to a Holder at the Holder’s registered address.

The Bank of New York (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to the Holders; however, the Paying Agent shall always be the Trustee or any successor trustee, under the Indenture.

The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture, dated as of August 6, 2004 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Securities 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. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Indenture until such time as the Indenture is qualified under the TIA, and thereafter as in effect on the date on which the Indenture is qualified under the TIA, except as provided in the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Securities are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. The Securities are unsecured obligations of the Company. The Company may issue Additional Securities under the Indenture subject to compliance with Section 4.04 thereof, unlimited in aggregate principal amount. Payment on each Security is guaranteed on a senior basis, jointly and severally, by the Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to Article Ten of the Indenture.

(a) Optional Redemption. The Securities will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time or from time to time, prior to August 15, 2008, at the Make-Whole Price (as defined below), in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

(2) as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, the sum of the present values of (a) the Redemption Price of the Securities at August 15, 2008 (as set forth below) and (b) the remaining scheduled payments of interest from the Redemption Date to August 15, 2008 (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) discounted back to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 50 basis points.

plus, in the case of both (1) and (2), accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the Redemption Date. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Make-Whole Price, on and after the applicable Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities to be redeemed.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having the maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Securities.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Trustee obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and its successors, or, if Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or its successors, if any, to Citigroup Global Markets Inc., are unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealers” means Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and three additional primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City, (each a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) selected by the Company, and their respective successors (provided, however, that if Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or any such successor, as the case may be, shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer in New York City, the Company shall substitute therefore another Primary Treasury Dealer).

“Reference Treasury Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15 (519)” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and that establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury

securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before and after the stated maturity, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined, and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.

The notice of redemption with respect to the foregoing redemption need not set forth the Make-Whole Price but only the manner of calculation thereof. The Company will notify the Trustee of the Make-Whole Price with respect to any redemption promptly after the calculation thereof, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for such calculation.

The Securities will be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on or after August 15, 2008, at the following Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount), together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the Redemption Date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning August 15:

(b) Optional Redemption upon Public Equity Offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (a), at any time prior to August 15, 2007, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings at a redemption price equal to 110.500% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided that (a) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities remain outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption and (b) such redemption occurs within 60 days of the date of the closing of any such Equity Offering.

(c) Selection of Securities for Redemption. If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed at any time, selection of the Securities to be redeemed will be made by the Trustee from among the outstanding Securities on a pro rata basis, by lot or by any other method permitted in the Indenture; provided that in the case of a redemption with the net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, selection shall be made on a pro rata basis.

Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address. Securities in denominations of $1,000 may be redeemed only in whole. The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $1,000.

If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Security in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Security. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Securities or portions thereof called for redemption.

The Securities are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of U.S.$1,000 and integral multiples of U.S.$1,000. A Holder shall register the transfer of or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities or portions thereof selected for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

The registered Holder of a Security shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

If funds for the payment of principal or interest remain unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will repay the funds to the Company at their request. After that, all liability of the Trustee and Paying Agent with respect to such funds shall cease.

The Company may be discharged from their obligations under the Indenture and the Securities except for certain provisions thereof, upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the written consent (which may include consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for securities) of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision may be waived other than any continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal amount of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities with the consent (which may include consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for securities) of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. Without the consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders in the case of a merger or acquisition or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Security.

The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and their subsidiaries to make Restricted Payments, to incur Indebtedness, to create Liens, to issue preferred or other Capital Stock of Subsidiaries, to sell assets, to permit restrictions on dividends and other payments by subsidiaries to the Company, to consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets or to engage in transactions with Affiliates. The limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions. The Company must report to the Trustee on compliance with such limitations.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Securities then outstanding may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it has received indemnity satisfactory to it. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Securities notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest, including an accelerated payment) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

The Holders shall be entitled to receive certain additional interest payments in the event such exchange offer is not consummated and upon certain other conditions, all pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Company will furnish to any Holder of a Security upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to: United Refining Company, 15 Bradley Street, Warren, Pennsylvania 16365, Attention: Myron L. Turfitt.

agent to transfer this Security on the books of the Company. The agent may substitute another to act for him.

If you want to elect to have this Security purchased by the Company pursuant to Section 4.16 or Section 4.20 of the Indenture, check the appropriate box:

If you want to elect to have only part of this Security purchased by the Company pursuant to Section 4.16 or Section 4.20 of the Indenture, state the amount: $

Reference is made to the further provisions of this Security contained herein, which will for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Security to be signed manually or by facsimile by its duly authorized officers.

This is one of the 10¹/2% Senior Notes due 2012, Series B, described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

The Company hereby jointly and severally promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above. The Company will pay interest semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year (the “Interest Payment Date”), commencing February 15, 2005. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from August 6, 2004. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Bank of New York (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to the Holders; however the Paying Agent shall always be the Trustee or any successor trustee under the Indenture.

(b) Optional Redemption upon Public Equity Offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (a), at any time prior to August 15, 2007, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings at a redemption price equal to 110.500% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date; provided that (a) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities remain outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption and (b) such redemption occurs within 60 days of the date of the closing of any such Equity Offering.

The registered Holder of a Security shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

If funds for the payment of principal or interest remain unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will repay the funds to the Company at its request. After that, all liability of the Trustee and Paying Agent with respect to such funds shall cease.

The Company may be discharged from their obligations under the Indenture and the Securities except for certain provisions thereof upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the written consent (which may include consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for securities) of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision may be waived other than any continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal amount of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities with the consent (which may include consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for securities) of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. Without the consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders in the case of a merger or acquisition or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Security.

No director, officer, employee, direct or indirect stockholder or incorporator, as such, of the Company or any of their Subsidiaries, including but not limited to Parent and its stockholders, shall have any liability for any obligation of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of a Security by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. Such waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities.

This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee or authenticating agent signs the certificate of authentication on this Security.
