WHEREAS, pursuant to Sections 9.02 and 9.06 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Second Supplemental Indenture.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree as follows:

1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

(a) The Indenture is hereby amended by deleting the following Sections of Article IV of the Indenture and all references thereto and obligations thereunder: 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 and 4.16, in each case in its entirety, and replacing each such Section with the following: “[Intentionally Omitted].”

(b) The Indenture is hereby amended by deleting clauses (a)(ii), (a)(iii) and (b)(ii) of Section 5.01 of the Indenture and all references thereto and obligations thereunder, in each case in its entirety, and replacing each such clause with the following: “[intentionally omitted].”

(c) The Indenture is hereby amended by deleting clauses (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i), (j), (k) and (l) of Section 6.01 of the Indenture and all references thereto and obligations thereunder, in each case in its entirety, and replacing each such clause with the following: “[intentionally omitted].”

(d) Effective as of the date hereof, none of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee or other parties to or beneficiaries of the Indenture shall have any obligations, rights or liabilities under the Sections or clauses set forth in clauses (a) through (c) above and such deleted Sections or clauses shall not be considered in determining whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred or whether the Issuer or any of the Guarantors has observed, performed or complied with the provisions of the Indenture.

(e) Any defined terms contained in the Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees but no longer used as a result of the amendments made by this Second Supplemental Indenture are hereby eliminated in the Indenture. The definition of any defined term used in the Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees where such definition is set forth in any of the sections or subsections of the Indenture that are eliminated by this Second Supplemental Indenture and the term it defines is still used in the Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees shall be deemed to become part of, and defined in, Section 1.01 of the Indenture. Such defined terms are to be in alphanumeric order within Section 1.01 of the Indenture. Any cross-references contained in the Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees but no longer applicable as a result of the amendments made by this Second Supplemental Indenture are hereby eliminated in the Indenture.

3. Effect and Operation of Second Supplemental Indenture. The provisions of this Second Supplemental Indenture shall be effective only upon execution and delivery of this instrument by the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the provisions of this Second Supplemental Indenture shall become operative only upon the acceptance for purchase by the Issuer, pursuant to the Tender Offer, of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, with the result that the amendments to the Indenture effected by this Second Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to be revoked retroactive to the date hereof if such purchase shall not occur and will never become operative. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing promptly after the occurrence of such purchase or promptly after the Issuer shall determine that such purchase will not occur and such notice shall state the date that this Second Supplemental Indenture becomes operative (if applicable). Except as expressly amended hereby, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, conditions and provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect. This Second Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for all purposes, and every Holder of Notes heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered shall be bound hereby.

4. Indenture and Second Supplemental Indenture Construed Together. This Second Supplemental Indenture is an indenture supplemental to, and in implementation of, the Indenture, and the Indenture and this Second Supplemental Indenture shall henceforth be read and construed together.

5. Trust Indenture Acts Controls. If any provisions hereof limit, qualify or conflict with any provisions of the TIA required under the TIA to be a part of or govern this Second Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of the TIA shall control. If any provision hereof modifies or excludes any provision of the TIA that pursuant to the TIA may be so modified or excluded, the provision of the TIA as so modified or excluded hereby shall apply.

6. No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantee or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note shall waive and release all such liability.

7. GOVERNING LAW. THIS SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

8. Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Second Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

9. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

10. Trustee Makes No Representation. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Second Supplemental Indenture, or with respect to the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the other parties hereto.
