1. INSTRUCTIONS

1.1. Escrow Property.

The funds to be deposited with the Escrow Agent will be as follows:

(a)		Concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof and the issuance of the Notes, as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Initial Purchaser will deposit with the Escrow Agent $901,094,000 by wire transfer in immediately available funds (the “Initial Deposit”), which amount represents the gross proceeds from the Offering (which is net of “original issue discount” in connection with the offering of the Notes, but includes a deferred discount of $16,100,000 (the “Deferred Discount”) payable to the Initial Purchaser on the Release Date).

(b)		The Escrow Agent will accept the Initial Deposit and will hold such funds, all investments thereof, any Distributions (as hereinafter defined) and the proceeds of the foregoing in a Securities Account created by the Escrow Agent prior to or concurrently with the issuance of the Notes. Such Securities Account will have account number 095173-001 and shall be maintained by the Escrow Agent in the name of the Trustee (such account, together with any other account maintained by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the “Escrow Account”) for disbursement in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Trustee will be the entitlement holder and customer of the Escrow Agent with respect to the Escrow Account. The Grantor will not have any access to the Escrow Account or funds, investments or other assets credited thereto, other than the limited contractual right to receive the Escrow Property under the circumstances specified in Section 1.4 hereof. The Initial Deposit, the Escrow Account and all funds, securities or other property now or hereafter credited to the Escrow Account, all investments of any of the

-2-

		foregoing, plus all interest, dividends and other distributions and payments on any of the foregoing (collectively the “Distributions”) received or receivable by the Escrow Agent, less any property and/or funds distributed or paid in accordance with this Agreement, together with all proceeds of any of the foregoing are collectively referred to herein as “Escrow Property.”

(c)		If the Escrow Property is to be released pursuant to Section 1.4(d) and the aggregate amount of Escrow Property is not sufficient to satisfy all amounts payable under clauses (i) through (iv) thereof, then the Company shall deposit with the Trustee the amount required to satisfy (together with the Escrow Property) all amounts payable under such clauses.

1.2. Grantor’s Limited Rights in Escrow Property; Security Interest.

(a)		It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement create a true escrow, and the Grantor have no ownership of, or rights in, the Escrow Account or the Escrow Property other than the limited contractual right to receive the Escrow Property under the circumstances specified in Section 1.4 hereof.

(b)		If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties set forth in Section 1.2(a) hereof, the Grantor is determined to have any interest in any Escrow Property, as security for the due and punctual payment when due of all amounts that may be payable from time to time under the Indenture and the Notes, now or hereafter arising, the Grantor hereby pledges and grants to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing first priority (subject to liens of the Escrow Agent) security interest in all of the Grantor’s right, title and interest, to and under the following whether now or hereafter existing or acquired (collectively, the “Escrow Collateral”): (i) the Escrow Account, and all Financial Assets and other property from time to time placed or deposited in, or delivered to the Escrow Agent for placement or deposit in the Escrow Account, including, without limitation, all Escrow Property; (ii) all Security Entitlements from time to time credited to the Escrow Account; (iii) all claims and rights of whatever nature which the Grantor may now have or hereafter acquire against any third party(ies) in respect of any of the Escrow Collateral described in this Section 1.2 (including any claims or rights in respect of any Security Entitlements credited to an account of the Escrow Agent maintained at The Depository Trust Company or any other clearing corporation) or any other Securities Intermediary; (iv) all rights which the Grantor may now have or hereafter acquire against the Escrow Agent in respect of its holding and managing all or any part of the Escrow Collateral; and (v) all proceeds (as such term is defined in Section 9-102(a) of the UCC) of any of the foregoing. The Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges the Trustee’s security interest as set forth in this Section 1.2. The Grantor shall take all actions and shall direct the Trustee in writing to take all actions reasonably necessary on its part to ensure (i) the continuance of a security interest in the Escrow Collateral in favor of the Trustee for its benefit and for the benefit of the Secured Parties in order to secure all the Obligations under the Indenture and the Notes and (ii) that such security interest is at all times a perfected first priority (subject to liens of the Escrow Agent) security interest. The Grantor shall not grant or cause or permit any other person to obtain a security interest, encumbrance, lien or other claim, direct or indirect, in the Grantor’s right, title or interest in the Escrow Collateral other than the Escrow Agent’s lien arising by operation of law and the rights of set-off pursuant to Section 1.7(d) hereof. The Grantor represents and warrants that the security interest of the Trustee in the Escrow Collateral pursuant to this Agreement and, to the extent that the Grantor has rights therein, the Escrow Collateral, will, after execution and delivery of this Agreement by all parties hereto, at all times be valid, perfected and enforceable (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) as a first priority (subject to liens of the Escrow Agent) security interest by the Trustee against the Grantor and all third parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d)		The Escrow Agent hereby agrees that all property delivered to the Escrow Agent for crediting to the Escrow Account will be promptly credited to the Escrow Account by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent represents and warrants that it has not entered into, and agrees that it will not enter into, any control agreement or any other agreement relating to the Escrow Account with any other third party without the prior written consent of the Grantor, the Trustee and the Initial Purchaser, except for this Escrow Agreement.

(e)		Each of the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Escrow Account will be under the control (within the meanings of Sections 8-106, 9-106 and 9-104 of the UCC) of the Trustee and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent will comply with all “Entitlement Orders” and instructions given by the Trustee with respect to the Escrow Account or Escrow Property without further consent of the Grantor or any other person. Except as expressly set forth in Section 1.3 hereof, the Grantor shall have no right to give any Entitlement Orders or instructions.

(f)		The Grantor agrees to take all steps reasonably necessary to maintain the security interest created by this Agreement as a perfected first-priority security interest including causing UCC financing statements describing the Escrow Collateral to be promptly filed in the State of Delaware. Without limiting the foregoing, the Grantor agrees to take all steps reasonably requested by the Trustee in connection with the perfection of the Trustee’s security interest in the Escrow Collateral pursuant to this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantor hereby authorizes the Trustee and the Initial Purchaser on behalf of the Trustee to file one or more UCC financing statements that reasonably describe the collateral in such jurisdictions and filing offices and containing such description of collateral as the Trustee, or the Initial Purchaser on behalf of the Trustee, may determine is reasonably necessary in order to perfect the security interest granted herein; provided, that the foregoing authorization shall not impose any obligation of the Grantor to maintain the security interest as provided herein on the Trustee or the Initial Purchaser. The Grantor represents and warrants that as of the date hereof it is duly formed and validly existing as a corporation under the laws of the state of Delaware and is not organized under the laws of any other jurisdiction, and the Grantor hereby agrees that, prior to the termination of this Agreement, it will not change its name or jurisdiction of organization without giving the Trustee and the Initial Purchaser not less than 10 days’ prior written notice thereof.

(g)		Upon the release of any Escrow Collateral pursuant to Section 1.4 hereof, the security interest of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties will automatically terminate with respect to any such Escrow Collateral released without any further action and such released Escrow Collateral will be delivered to the recipient free and clear of any and all liens, claims or encumbrances of any person, including, without limitation, the Escrow Agent, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes. The Trustee will take all steps necessary to terminate any financing statements and will

-4-

		execute such other documents without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind as the Grantor may reasonably request in writing to evidence or confirm the termination of the security interest in such released Escrow Collateral.

(h)		Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Indenture and for so long as such Event of Default continues, the Grantor hereby appoints the Trustee as its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to do any act which the Grantor is obligated hereunder to do, and the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, exercise such rights as the Grantor might exercise with respect to the Escrow Collateral and take any action in the Grantor’s name to protect the Trustee’s security interest and lien granted hereunder. In addition to the rights provided under this Section 1.2, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Indenture and for so long as such Event of Default continues, the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, exercise in respect of the Escrow Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all other rights and remedies of secured parties under the UCC or other applicable law. The Trustee may also upon obtaining possession of the Escrow Collateral as set forth herein, without notice to the Grantor except as specified below, sell the Escrow Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Trustee’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Trustee may deem commercially reasonable. The Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to the Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Trustee shall not be obligated to make any sale regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Trustee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

In the event of any ambiguity or uncertainty hereunder or in any notice, instruction or other communication received by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, refrain from taking any action other than retaining possession of the Escrow Property, unless the Escrow Agent receives written instructions, signed by each of the Grantor, the Trustee and the Initial Purchaser which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty.

(i)		Conflicting claims. In the event of any dispute between or conflicting claims by or among the Grantor and/or any other person or entity with respect to any Escrow Property, the Escrow Agent will be entitled, in its sole discretion, to refuse to comply with any and all claims, demands or instructions with respect to such Escrow Property so long as such dispute or conflict continues, and the Escrow Agent will not be or become liable in any way to the Grantor for failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions. The Escrow Agent will be entitled to refuse to act until, in its sole discretion, either (i) such conflicting or adverse claims or demands have been determined by a final order, judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, which order, judgment or decree is not subject to appeal, or settled by agreement between the conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing satisfactory to the Escrow Agent or (ii) the Escrow Agent has received security or an indemnity satisfactory to it sufficient to hold it harmless from and against any and all Losses (as defined in Section 2.2 hereof) which it may incur by reason of so acting. The Escrow Agent may, in addition, elect, in its sole discretion, to commence an interpleader action or seek other judicial relief or orders as it may deem, in its sole discretion, necessary. The reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of one counsel) incurred in connection with such proceeding will be paid by, and will be solely an obligation of, the Grantor.

(j)		Compliance with judicial orders. If at any time the Escrow Agent is served with any judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process that in any way affects Escrow Property, including but not limited to orders of attachment or garnishment or other forms of levies or injunctions or stays relating to the transfer of Escrow Property (an “Order”), the Escrow Agent is authorized to comply therewith in any manner as it or its legal counsel of its own choosing deems necessary; and if the Escrow Agent complies with any such Order, the Escrow Agent will not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other

-11-

		person or entity even though such Order may be subsequently modified or vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect.

(k)		Right to rely on communications. The Escrow Agent will be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order, judgment, certification, demand, instruction, notice, instrument or other writing delivered to it hereunder without being required to determine the authenticity or the correctness of any fact stated therein or the propriety or validity or the service thereof. The Escrow Agent may act in conclusive reliance upon any instrument or signature believed by it in good faith to be genuine and may assume that any person purporting to give receipt or advice to make any statement or execute any document in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so. When the Escrow Agent acts on any information, instructions, communications (including, but not limited to, communications with respect to the delivery of securities or the wire transfer of funds) sent by facsimile, email or other form of electronic or data transmission, the Escrow Agent, absent gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith, will not be responsible or liable in the event such communication is not an authorized or authentic communication of the Grantor or the Trustee, as the case may be, or is not in the form the Grantor or the Trustee sent or intended to send (whether due to fraud, distortion or otherwise). The Grantor will indemnify the Escrow Agent against any loss, liability, claim or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses of one legal counsel) it may incur as a result of acting in accordance with any such communication, except to the extent arising from the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

(l)		Right to request instruction. At any time the Escrow Agent may request an instruction in writing from the Grantor and the Trustee and may, at its own option, include in such request the course of action it proposes to take and the date on which it proposes to act, regarding any matter arising in connection with its duties and obligations hereunder. The Escrow Agent will not be liable for acting in accordance with such a proposal on or after the date specified therein; provided that (i) the specified date will be at least five (5) Business Days after each of the Grantor and the Trustee receives the Escrow Agent’s request for instructions and its proposed course of action and (ii) prior to so acting, the Escrow Agent has not received the written instructions requested.

(m)		Liability for Taxes. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Escrow Agent does not have any interest in the Escrow Property deposited hereunder but is serving as escrow holder only and having only possession thereof and nothing herein shall require the Escrow Agent to pay any taxes. The Grantor will pay or reimburse the Escrow Agent upon request for any transfer taxes or other taxes relating to the Escrow Property incurred in connection herewith and will indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent with respect to any amounts that it pays in the way of such taxes, in each case to the reasonable satisfaction of the Escrow Agent. Any payments of income from the Escrow Account will be subject to withholding regulations then in force with respect to United States taxes. The parties hereto will provide the Escrow Agent with appropriate W-9 forms for tax I.D. number certifications, or W-8 forms for non-resident alien certifications, as requested. It is understood that the Escrow Agent will be responsible for income reporting only with respect to income earned on investment of funds which are a part of the Escrow Property and is not responsible for any other reporting. The provisions of this Section 2.1(n) will survive the termination of this Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.

2.2. Indemnity.

The Grantor will be liable for and will reimburse and indemnify the Escrow Agent and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, actual losses, liabilities, reasonable costs, damages or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of one legal counsel)

-12-

(collectively, “Losses”) arising from or in connection with or related to this Agreement or being the Escrow Agent hereunder (including but not limited to Losses incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with its successful defense, of any claim of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part); provided, however, that nothing contained herein will require the Escrow Agent to be indemnified for Losses caused by its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

The provisions of this Section 2.2 will survive the termination of this Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.

2.3. Removal of Escrow Agent.

(a)		The Grantor may, with notice to the Trustee, remove the Escrow Agent at any time by giving to the Escrow Agent 15 days’ prior notice in writing signed by the Grantor. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time by giving to the Grantor and the Trustee 15 days’ prior written notice thereof.

(b)		Within 5 Business Days after giving the foregoing notice of removal to the Escrow Agent or receiving the foregoing notice of resignation from the Escrow Agent, the Grantor will appoint a successor escrow agent. The Grantor will cause any successor escrow agent to assume the obligations of the Escrow Agent hereunder or to enter into such other escrow and security agreement as may be acceptable to the Trustee in its sole discretion. If a successor escrow agent has not accepted such appointment by the end of such 5-Business Day period or such successor escrow agent has not become so bound, the Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, deliver the Escrow Property to the Trustee at the address provided herein or may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor escrow agent or for other appropriate relief. The reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of one legal counsel) incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with such proceeding will be paid by, and be deemed to be solely an obligation of, the Grantor.

(c)		Upon receipt of the identity of the successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent will either deliver the Escrow Property then held hereunder to the successor escrow agent, less the Escrow Agent’s fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owed to the Escrow Agent, or hold such Escrow Property (or any portion thereof), pending distribution, until all such fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owing to the Escrow Agent are paid. Upon delivery of the Escrow Property to the successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent will have no further duties, responsibilities or obligations hereunder.

2.4. Termination.

This Agreement will automatically terminate upon the distribution of all Escrow Property from the Escrow Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.4 hereof. Section 1.7 hereof, the provisions of these Terms and Conditions and the Miscellaneous provisions below will survive termination of this Agreement and/or the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.
