ITEM 1.01 – ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On October 13, 2010, Cincinnati Bell Inc. (the “Company”) issued and sold $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8 ³/8% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”).

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) entered into an underwriting agreement dated as of October 7, 2010 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), with Barclays Capital Inc., as manager for the several underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”). Delivery of the Notes was made under the Underwriting Agreement on October 13, 2010.

The Underwriters or their affiliates have from time to time provided and/or may in the future provide investment banking, commercial banking and financial advisory services to the Company, for which they have received or will receive customary compensation. Affiliates of certain of the Underwriters are agents and/or lenders under the Company’s senior credit facilities and will receive a portion of the proceeds from the offering of the Notes.

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes, the Company and the Guarantors entered into an indenture dated as of October 13, 2010 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, the Guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee.

The terms of the Notes are governed by the Indenture. The Notes will mature on October 15, 2020. Interest on the Notes accrues at the rate of 8.375% per annum, payable semiannually in cash in arrears on each April 15 and October 15, commencing on April 15, 2011. The Notes and the note guarantees will be unsecured senior obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, will rank equally with all of their existing and future senior indebtedness, will rank senior to all of their existing and future senior subordinated and subordinated indebtedness and will be effectively subordinated to all of their existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The Notes and the note guarantees will also be effectively subordinated to all existing and future obligations of the subsidiaries of the Company that are not Guarantors. The Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by each of the Company’s current and future restricted subsidiaries that is a guarantor under its credit facility. The Company, at its option, may redeem the Notes in whole or in part prior to October 15, 2015, by paying 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, plus a “make whole” premium. The Company may also redeem some or all of the Notes on or after October 15, 2015, at the redemption prices set forth in the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, until October 15, 2013 and subject to certain conditions, the Company may, at its option, redeem up to 35% of the Notes at the redemption price set forth in the Indenture with the proceeds of certain equity offerings by the Company.

The Indenture contains certain covenants that, subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications, limit, among other things, the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock, create liens, make investments, enter into transactions with affiliates, sell assets, guarantee indebtedness, declare or pay dividends or other distributions to shareholders, repurchase equity interests, redeem debt that is junior in right of payment to the Notes, enter into agreements that restrict dividends or other payments from subsidiaries, issue or sell capital stock of certain of its subsidiaries, and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. In addition, if the Company experiences specific kinds of changes in control, holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to purchase their Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount, together with any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of such purchase.

The above summary of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and provisions of the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 1.1 and 4.1, respectively.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement, including a prospectus, (the file number of which is set forth in Schedule I hereto) on Form S-3, relating to securities (the “Shelf Securities”), including the Securities, to be issued from time to time by the Company. The registration statement as amended to the date of this Agreement, including the information (if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430A or Rule 430B under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement,” and the related prospectus covering the Shelf Securities dated September 30, 2009 in the form first used to confirm sales of the Securities (or in the form first made available to the Underwriters by the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) is hereinafter referred to as the “Basic Prospectus.” The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement specifically relating to the Securities in the form first used to confirm sales of the Securities (or in the form first made available to the Underwriters by the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) is hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus,” and the term “preliminary prospectus” means any preliminary form of the Prospectus.

4

laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

(a) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date:

(i) there shall not have occurred any downgrading, nor shall any notice have been given of any intended or potential downgrading or of any review for a possible change that does not indicate the direction of the possible change, in the rating accorded the Company or any of the securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or in the rating outlook for the Company, in each case, by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization,” as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act; and

(d) Not to take any action that would result in an Underwriter or the Company being required to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of the Underwriter that the Underwriter otherwise would not have been required to file thereunder, but for the action of the Company.

(e) If the Time of Sale Prospectus is being used to solicit offers to buy the Securities at a time when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances, not misleading, or if any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which the Time of Sale Prospectus conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement then on file, or if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus to comply with applicable law, forthwith to prepare, file with the Commission and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and to any dealer upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Prospectus so that, as applicable, the statements in the Time of Sale Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Time of Sale Prospectus is delivered to a prospective purchaser, be misleading, the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will no longer conflict with the Registration Statement, or the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law.

(f) If, during such period after the first date of the public offering of the Securities as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the Securities Act) is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the Securities Act) is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or

(g) To endeavor to qualify the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as you shall reasonably request.

7. Covenants of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter severally covenants with the Company not to take any action that would result in the Company being required to file with the Commission under Rule 433(d) a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that otherwise would not be required to be filed by the Company thereunder, but for the action of the Underwriter.

8. Indemnity and Contribution. (a) Each of Issuers jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each affiliate of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act, or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein.

(b) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Issuers, its directors, its officers and each person, if any, who controls any Issuer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuers to such Underwriter, but only with reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or (b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the

19

indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Manager authorized to appoint counsel under this Section set forth in Schedule I hereto, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a), and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuers on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuers and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Securities as set forth in the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to

20

information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to the respective principal amounts of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.

(e) Each of the Issuers and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 8 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Issuers contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any person controlling any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter or by or on behalf of each of the Issuers, its officers or directors or any person controlling each of the Issuers and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.

9. Termination. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, the New York Stock Exchange, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus.

10. Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

21

If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase the Securities that it has or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule II bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the principal amount of Securities that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 10 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such principal amount of Securities without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to you and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company. In any such case either you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement, in the Time of Sale Prospectus, in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Company or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company or the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note. In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company.

The provisions of this Section 2.07 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes.

The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Agent Members or beneficial owners of interests in any Definitive Note or Global Note) 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, this Indenture,

-28-

and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depository.

SECTION 2.08. Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Subject to Section 13.06, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date, the Stated Maturity Date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

SECTION 2.09. Temporary Notes. Until Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and deliver them in exchange for temporary Notes upon surrender of such temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company, without charge to the Holder.

SECTION 2.10. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures or deliver canceled Notes to the Company pursuant to written direction by a Responsible Officer. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Trustee shall not authenticate Notes in place of canceled Notes other than pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 2.11. Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Company shall pay the defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to each

-29-

the Trustee and shall promptly 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.

SECTION 2.12. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures numbers (the “CUSIP numbers”) (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

SECTION 2.13. Designations. For purposes of the indenture governing the 8 ³/4% Notes, the Notes issued pursuant to this Indenture shall constitute “Designated Senior Indebtedness.”

SECTION 2.14. Issuance of Additional Notes. The Company shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture which shall have substantially identical terms as the Notes issued on the Closing Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price, amount of interest payable on the first payment date applicable thereto and terms of optional redemption, if any; provided that such issuance shall be made in compliance with Section 5.04.

With respect to any Additional Notes, the Company shall set forth in a resolution of its Board of Directors (or a duly appointed committee thereof) and in an Officers’ Certificate, a copy of each of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information:

(a) the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Notes;

(b) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture;

(c) the issue price and the issue date of such Additional Notes and amount of interest payable on the first payment date applicable thereto; and

(d) if applicable, that such Additional Notes shall be issuable in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes and, in such case, the respective depositaries for such Global Notes, the form of any legend or legends which shall be borne by such Global Notes in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Exhibit A hereto and any circumstances in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in the Appendix in which any such Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in party for Additional Notes registered, or any transfer of such Global Notes in whole or in party may be registered, in the name or names of Persons other than the depositary for such Global Note or a nominee thereof.

If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant paragraph 5 of the Notes or is obligated to purchase Notes pursuant to Section 4.09 or Section 4.10, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed. The redemption provisions of paragraph 5 of the Notes are fully incorporated herein. The Trustee may conclusively rely on an Officers’ Certificate and the calculations given therein in making any redemption in accordance with paragraph 5 of the Notes.

The Company shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section 3.01 at least 45 days before the Redemption Date unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the Company to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions herein. If fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Company and given to the Trustee, which record date shall be not fewer than 15 days after the date of notice to the Trustee. Any such notice may be canceled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect.

SECTION 3.02. Selection of Notes To Be Redeemed. If fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal amount of Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000. Notes and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes to be redeemed.

SECTION 3.03. Notice of Redemption.

(a) At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Notes, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first class mail to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address.

(vii) the CUSIP number, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed; and

(viii) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

(c) At the Company’s written request delivered at least 10 days prior to the date such notice is to be given (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense. In such event, the Company shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section 3.03.

SECTION 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price stated in the notice. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the Redemption Price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that if the Redemption Date is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date, the accrued interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant Regular Record Date. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

SECTION 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption that have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation. On or after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption so long as the Company has deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the principal of, plus accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes to be redeemed, unless the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 3.06. Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Company’s expense) a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Note surrendered.

SECTION 5.04. Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur, directly or indirectly, any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor to issue any Preferred Stock;

-40-

provided, however, that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), and the Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors may issue Preferred Stock, if on the date of such Incurrence or issuance and after giving effect thereto, (x) the Consolidated Adjusted Debt to EBITDA Ratio is less than 6.00 to 1.00 and (y) the Consolidated Adjusted Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio is less than 4:00 to 1:00 (this test being referred to herein as the “Leverage Test”). For the purpose of the calculation of the Leverage Test, with respect to any period included in such calculation, Consolidated EBITDA, the components of Consolidated Interest Expense, and Consolidated Adjusted Debt shall be calculated with respect to such period by the Company in good faith on a pro forma basis (including and consistent with Permitted Adjustments), giving effect to any Permitted Acquisition, Asset Disposition or Incurrence or redemption or repayment of Indebtedness that has given rise to the need for such calculation, has occurred during such period or has occurred after such period and on or prior to the date of such calculation.

(b) The foregoing provisions shall not apply to:

(iv) the Incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to extend, Refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund, Indebtedness that was permitted by this Indenture to be Incurred by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary;

(v) the Incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness (A) between or among the Company and any Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company and (B) consisting of debits and credits among the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to a Centralized Cash Management System; provided, however, that (1) any intercompany Indebtedness which is borrowed by the Company or a Guarantor from a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor shall be expressly subordinated to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee and (2) (x) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, or (y) any sale or

-41-

other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, or a lender or agent upon exercise of remedies under a pledge of such Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, shall be deemed, in each case of the foregoing clauses (2)(x) and (y), to constitute an Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be;

(vi) the Incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Interest Swap Obligations that are Incurred for the purpose of fixing or hedging interest rate risk with respect to any Indebtedness that is permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be outstanding;

(vii) Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary under the Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $900,000,000, less, to the extent a permanent repayment and/or commitment reduction is required thereunder as a result of such application, the aggregate amount of Net Proceeds applied to repayments under the Credit Agreement in accordance with Section 5.05;

(viii) the Incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness under Currency Agreements;

(ix) the Incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries represented by letters of credit for the account of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in order to provide security for workers’ compensation claims, payment obligations in connection with self-insurance or similar requirements in the Ordinary Course of Business;

(x) the Incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of performance bonds, bankers’ acceptances, workers’ compensation claims, completion guarantees, letters of credit surety or appeal bonds, payment obligations in connection with self-insurance or similar obligations Incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business;

(xii) Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, Incurred in connection with an Asset Disposition or acquisition permitted by this Indenture or other sale or disposition of assets permitted under this Indenture;

(xiii) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary Incurred and outstanding on or prior to the date on which such Restricted Subsidiary was acquired by the Company (other than Indebtedness Incurred in contemplation of, in connection with, as consideration in, or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary

-42-

became a Subsidiary of or was otherwise acquired by the Company); provided, however, that on the date that such Restricted Subsidiary is acquired by the Company, the Company would have been able to Incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under the first paragraph of this Section 5.04 pursuant to the Leverage Test after giving effect to the Incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (xiii);

(xiv)(A) Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations (other than Capital Lease Obligations described in the following clause (B)) and Synthetic Lease Obligations hereafter Incurred by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount that, when taken together with the Remaining Present Value of such outstanding Capital Lease Obligations and Synthetic Lease Obligations relating to Sale and Leaseback Transactions, does not exceed $150,000,000 at any time outstanding and (B) Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations in connection with the Data Center Sale and Leaseback Transactions and the Wireless Tower Sale and Leaseback Transactions and in each case otherwise in compliance with the conditions set forth in the applicable definition thereof; provided that (x) the aggregate outstanding Remaining Present Value of (I) all leases entered into in connection with all Data Center Sale and Leaseback Transactions, plus (II) all leases entered into in connection with all Wireless Tower Sale and Leaseback Transactions, plus (y) all Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations and Synthetic Lease Obligations entered into under clause (A) does not at any time exceed $250,000,000 in the aggregate;

(xv) the Incurrence of other Indebtedness not to exceed $100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding; and

(xvi) the Incurrence by a Receivables Subsidiary of Indebtedness in a Qualified Receivables Transaction that is without recourse (other than pursuant to representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and performance guarantees customarily entered into in connection with a Receivables financing) to the Company or to any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or its assets (other than such Receivables Subsidiary and its subsidiaries and assets), in an amount not to exceed $150,000,000 in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 5.04, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Indebtedness described in Sections 5.04(b)(i) through (xvi) or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to Section 5.04(a), the Company shall, in its sole discretion, classify (or later reclassify) such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 5.04 and will only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of such clauses of Section 5.04(b) or pursuant to Section 5.04(a); provided that Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of the Closing Date shall be deemed to have been Incurred pursuant to clause (vii) of Section 5.04(b). Accrual of interest, accretion of accreted value, amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms as the Indebtedness on which such interest is being paid and any other issuance of securities paid-in-kind shall not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 5.04, but such amounts shall be included in Consolidated Adjusted Debt to the extent provided for in such definition. In addition, the Company may, at any time, change the

-43-

classification of an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) to any other clause of Section 5.04(b) or to Indebtedness properly Incurred under Section 5.04(a), provided that the Company would be permitted to Incur such item of Indebtedness (or portion thereof) pursuant to such other clause of Section 5.04(b) or Section 5.04(a), as the case may be, at such time of reclassification.

SECTION 5.05. Asset Dispositions.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, consummate any Asset Disposition (provided that the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as a whole shall be governed by the provisions of Article 6 and not by the provisions of this Section 5.05) unless: (i) the consideration received is at least equal to the fair market value of such assets (except as the result of (x) any foreclosure or sale by the lenders under the Credit Agreement or (y) Net Proceeds received from an insurer or a Governmental Authority, as the case may be, in the event of loss, damage, destruction or condemnation); and (ii) in the case of Asset Dispositions that are not Permitted Asset Swaps, at least 75% of the consideration thereof received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash and Cash Equivalents; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 5.05(a), the following are deemed to be cash: (x) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to any arrangement releasing the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability and (y) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 90 days after the Asset Disposition (to the extent of the cash received).

(b) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Disposition, the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary making such Asset Disposition, as the case may be, may, at its option, apply such Net Proceeds (i) to permanently reduce Indebtedness Incurred by the Company under the Credit Agreement or any Indebtedness of the Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company which are not Guarantors, or to purchase the Notes (with the consent of the Holders thereof to the extent required) or Indebtedness ranking pari passu with the Notes (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto, to the extent applicable) or (ii) to the acquisition of a controlling interest in another business, the making of Capital Expenditures or the investment in or acquisition of other long-term assets, in each case, in the same or a similar line of business as the Company and its Subsidiaries engaged in at the time such assets were sold or in a business reasonably related, complementing or ancillary thereto or a reasonable expansion thereof. Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce revolving credit Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from Asset Dispositions that are not applied or invested as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25,000,000, the Company shall make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) pursuant to Section 4.10 to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase,

-44-

in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.10; provided, however, that if the Company elects (or is required by the terms of any other Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness or Disqualified Capital Stock) of the Company), such Asset Sale Offer may be made ratably to purchase the Notes and other Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness or Disqualified Capital Stock) of the Company. Upon completion of such offer to purchase, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

(c) The Company will 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 Notes pursuant to this provision. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this provision, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this provision by virtue thereof.

SECTION 5.06. Transactions with Affiliates. The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into or permit to exist any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any management, consulting, investment banking, advisory or other services) with any Affiliate of the Company (each an “Affiliate Transaction”), except:

(a) the performance of any agreements as in effect as of the Closing Date or the consummation of any transaction contemplated thereby (including pursuant to any amendment thereto so long as any such amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes in any material respect);

(b) transactions (i) the terms of which are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company and (ii) with respect to which the Company delivers to the Trustee (A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25,000,000, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company, and (B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of Affiliate Transactions involving in excess of $50,000,000, an opinion as to the fairness of such Affiliate Transaction to the Company from a financial point of view issued by an Independent Qualified Party;

(c) payment of customary compensation to officers, employees, consultants and investment bankers for services actually rendered to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, including indemnity;

(d) payment of director’s fees plus expenses and customary indemnification of directors;

(e) the payment of the fees, expenses and other amounts payable by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with the offering of the Notes;

-45-

(g) transactions (x) between or among the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, (y) between or among the Restricted Subsidiaries and (z) between or among the Company and/or its Subsidiaries pursuant to a Centralized Cash Management System;

(h) any licensing agreement or similar agreement entered into in the Ordinary Course of Business relating to the use of technology or intellectual property between any of the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any company or other Person which is an Affiliate of the Company or its Subsidiaries by virtue of the fact that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has made an Investment in or owns any Capital Stock of such company or other Person, on the other hand, which is fair to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors, or is on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party;

(i) the issuance of payments, awards or grants, in cash or otherwise, pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith and customary loans and advances to employees of the Company, or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to the extent otherwise permitted in this Indenture;

(j) transactions permitted under the indenture governing the 7% Notes, the 8 ¹/4% Notes or the 8 ³/4% Notes; and

(k) sales, contributions, conveyances and other transfers of Receivables and related assets of the type specified in the definition of Qualified Receivables Transaction to a Receivables Subsidiary or any other similar transactions in connection with any Qualified Receivables Transaction.

SECTION 5.07. Limitation on Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Incur or permit to exist any Lien (other than (a) Liens securing Guarantees and Obligations Incurred pursuant to Section 5.04(b)(vii) and (b) Permitted Liens) on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired to secure any Indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may create, incur or assume Liens to secure any Indebtedness or a Guarantee thereof, so long as concurrently with the incurrence or assumption of such Lien the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary effectively provides that the Notes shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior and senior to, in the case of Liens with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness) such Indebtedness, so long as such Indebtedness shall be so secured.

SECTION 5.08. Limitation on Issuances and Sales of Capital Stock of Subsidiaries. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, transfer, convey, sell, issue, lease or otherwise dispose of any Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary to any Person (other than to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary of the Company), unless such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.05, including the provisions of Section 5.05 governing the application

-46-

of Net Proceeds from such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition; provided, however, that this Section 5.08 shall not restrict any pledge of Capital Stock of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries securing Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement or other Indebtedness permitted to be secured by Section 5.07.

SECTION 5.09. [Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 5.10. Conduct of Business. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to engage in any business other than business of the type engaged in at the date hereof and any business reasonably related, complementing or ancillary thereto or a reasonable expansion thereof.

SECTION 5.11. [Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 5.12. [Intentionally Omitted].

(b) From and after the date of the Fall Away Event, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, issue, assume or guarantee any Debt if such Debt is secured by any Lien upon any Principal Property of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, whether owned at the date of the Fall Away Event or thereafter acquired, without effectively securing the Notes equally and ratably with such Debt. The foregoing restriction does not apply to:

(1) (i) Liens on any property acquired, constructed or improved after the date of the Fall Away Event (including Liens on Capital Stock) which are created or assumed within 24 months after such acquisition, construction or improvement (or within six months thereafter pursuant to a firm commitment for financing arrangements entered into within such 24 month period) to secure or provide for the payment of the purchase price or cost thereof incurred after the date of the Fall Away Event, or (ii) existing Liens on property acquired (including Liens on Capital Stock), provided such Liens shall not apply to any property (or Capital Stock) theretofore owned by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company;

(2) Liens existing on any property (including Liens on Capital Stock) acquired from a Person merged with or into the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company;

(3) Liens on property (including Liens on Capital Stock) of any Person existing at the time it becomes a Subsidiary;

-47-

(4) Liens securing Debt owed by a Subsidiary of the Company to the Company or to another Subsidiary of the Company;

(5) Liens in favor of governmental bodies to secure advances or other payments pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure Indebtedness Incurred to finance the purchase price or cost of constructing or improving the property subject to such Liens;

(7) banker’s Liens and rights of offset of the holders of Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company on monies deposited by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company with such holders of Indebtedness in the Ordinary Course of Business of the Company or any such Subsidiary of the Company; or

(8) Liens for extending, renewing or replacing Debt secured by any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (1) to (7) inclusive or in this clause or any Lien existing on the date of the Fall Away Event, provided, however, that the principal amount of Debt secured thereby shall not exceed the principal amount of Debt so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement, and that such extension, renewal or replacement shall be limited to all or a part of the property which secured the Lien so extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements on such property).

Such restriction does not apply to the issuance, assumption or guarantee by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company of Debt secured by a Lien which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restriction up to an aggregate amount which, together with all other secured Debt (not including secured Debt permitted under the foregoing exceptions) and the Value of Significant Sale and Leaseback Transactions existing at such time (other than Significant Sale and Leaseback Transactions the proceeds of which have been applied to the retirement of the Notes or of Funded Debt or to the purchase of other Principal Property, and other than Significant Sale and Leaseback Transactions in which the property involved would have been permitted to be subject to a Lien under clause (1) above), does not exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

(c) From and after the date of the Fall Away Event, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, enter into any Significant Sale and Leaseback Transactions (except for leases between the Company and a Subsidiary of the Company or between Subsidiaries of the Company) unless the net proceeds of such sale are at least equal to the fair market value of the subject Principal Property and:

(1) the Company or such Subsidiary of the Company would be entitled to incur Debt secured by a Lien on the property to be leased without securing the Notes pursuant to clause (1) of paragraph (b) above or

-48-

(2) the Value thereof would be an amount permitted under the last sentence of paragraph (b) above or

(3) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries applies an amount equal to the fair market value of such Principal Property

(a) to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company or

(b) to the purchase of Principal Property (other than that involved in such Sale and Leaseback Transaction).

(d) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs (b) and (c), any Liens incurred or Significant Sale and Leaseback Transactions entered into prior to the date of the Fall Away Event shall be deemed permitted under such paragraphs whether or not such Liens and Significant Sale and Leaseback Transactions would otherwise be permitted to exist.

(iii) consents to the filing of a petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a Custodian (as defined below) of it or for all or any substantial part of its property,

(iv) makes or consents to the making of a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or

(v) generally is not paying, or admits in writing that it is not able to pay its debts as they become due; or

(ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or for all or any substantial part of the property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or approves as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of any of the foregoing; or

(iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or adjudges any of them as bankrupt or insolvent.

The term “Custodian” means any custodian, receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or

-51-

pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

However, a default under Section 7.01(d) or (e) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Company or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes notify the Company and the Trustee of the default and the Company does not cure such default within the time specified in clause 7.01(d) or (e) after receipt of such notice.

SECTION 7.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(h) or (i) with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, may, by notice to the Company, declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(h) or (i) with respect to the Company occurs, the principal of and interest on all the Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal of or interest on Notes that has become due solely because of such acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

The Company shall give prompt notice (which in any event shall be within five (5) Business Days of the event) to the Trustee and the Holders of the occurrence of any Event of Default and the rescission, cure or waiver of any Event of Default.

SECTION 7.03. Other Remedies. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding in its own name and as trustee of an express trust even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder 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.

SECTION 7.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes by written notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of principal of or interest on a Note, (b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Note when required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 11.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed

-52-

cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

SECTION 7.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 8.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 7.06. Limitation on Suits.

(a) Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal of or interest on the Notes when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(i) the Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(iii) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

(iv) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(v) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.

(b) A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

SECTION 7.07. Rights of Holders To Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in the Notes, 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 such Holder.

SECTION 7.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(a) or (b) 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 Notes

-53-

for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on overdue portion of the principal amount and (to the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Notes) and the amounts provided for in Section 8.07.

SECTION 7.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 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 and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any Subsidiary, their creditors or their property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 8.07.

SECTION 7.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 7, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee for its fees (excluding expenses and indemnities) due under Section 8.07;

SECOND: to the Trustee for amounts (other than those set forth in clause FIRST) due under Section 8.07;

THIRD: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, respectively; and

FOURTH: to the Company.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 7.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Company a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

SECTION 7.11. Undertaking for Costs. 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, 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 7.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 7.06 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes.

SECTION 8.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 8.10 and 8.11.

SECTION 8.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity, priority or adequacy of this Indenture, or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any conduct or omission by the Company or the occurrence of any Event of Default.

SECTION 8.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the Default (“Notice of Default”) within 30 days after it is actually known to a Trust Officer or written notice of it is received by the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal, premium (if any) of or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the redemption provisions of such Note), the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders. If a Notice of Default has been given to the Company by the Holders, a copy of such Notice of

-57-

Default shall be delivered by the Company to the Trustee. Except as expressly provided herein, the Trustee shall not be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein, or in any of the documents executed in connection with the Notes, or as to the existence of a Default or Event of Default hereunder or thereunder, and may assume that no such Default or Event of Default has occurred unless it has actual knowledge or received written notice thereof.

SECTION 8.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days of each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall mail (if required by Section 313(a) of the TIA) to each Holder a brief report dated as of such May 15 that complies with Section 313(a) of the TIA. The Trustee shall also comply with Section 313(b) of the TIA.

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the Commission and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Notes are listed. The Company agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Notes become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof.

SECTION 8.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its services as may be agreed to between the Trustee and the Company in writing. 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 reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts and such other professionals as the Trustee deems necessary, advisable or appropriate. The Company and the Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee and their agents against any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) incurred by or in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, or in connection with enforcing the provisions of this Section. The Trustee shall notify the Company of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes such indemnified parties’ defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there is no conflict of interest between the Company and such parties in connection with such defense; provided, further, however, that the selection of the Company’s counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party through such party’s own willful misconduct or negligence.

-58-

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 8.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes.

The Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 8.07 shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture, any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any bankruptcy law or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Sections 7.01(h) and (i) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

All indemnifications and releases from liability granted hereunder to the Trustee shall extend to its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns.

SECTION 8.08. Replacement of Trustee.

(a) The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company in writing in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.02. Any resignation of the Trustee shall be effective immediately upon receipt by the Company of such notice (unless such notice shall specify a later time as the effective time of such resignation, in which case such later time shall be the effective time), and the resignation of the Trustee shall not prejudice any rights of the Trustee to receive any compensation, any reimbursement of any expenses or any indemnity or right to being defended and held harmless under this Indenture. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

(i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 8.10;

(ii) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

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

(iv) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

(b) If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

(c) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon 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. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 8.07.

-59-

(d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Company’s expense) or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(e) If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 8.10, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided in TIA § 310(b), any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(f) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 8.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 8.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 8.09. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers or sells all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion, sale or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

SECTION 8.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Trustee shall have, or in the case of a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related bank holding company 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), subject to its right to apply for a stay of its duty to resign under the penultimate paragraph of TIA § 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) 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.

SECTION 8.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. The Trustee 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.

SECTION 8.12. Appointment of Co-Trustee. It is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction (including the law of the State of

-60-

New York) denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that, in case of litigation under this Indenture, and in particular in the case of the enforcement thereof on default, or in the case the Trustee deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted, or take any action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that an additional individual or institution act as a separate or Co-Trustee.

In the event that the Trustee shall appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate or Co-Trustee, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate or Co-Trustee, but only to the extent necessary to enable any separate or such separate or Co-Trustee to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by any separate or such separate or Co-Trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.

Should any instrument in writing from the Company be required by the separate or Co-Trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such estates, property, rights, powers, trusts, duties, and obligations, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company. In case the Co-Trustee or a successor to either shall die or become incapable of acting, resign, or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of any separate or such separate or Co-Trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment by the Trustee of a successor to any separate or such separate or Co-Trustee or a new separate or Co-Trustee. Any separate or Co- Trustee appointed by the Trustee pursuant to this section may be removed by the Trustee , in which case all powers, rights and remedies vested in the separate or Co-Trustee shall again vest in the Trustee as if no such appointment as a separate or Co-Trustee had been made.

DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE SECTION

SECTION 9.01. Discharge of Liability on Notes; Defeasance.

(a) When (i) all outstanding Notes (other than Notes replaced or paid pursuant to Section 2.07) have been canceled or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (ii) all outstanding Notes have become due and payable, whether at maturity or as a result of the mailing of a notice of redemption pursuant to Article 3 hereof, and the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient, or U.S. Government Obligations, the principal of and interest on which will be sufficient, or a combination thereof sufficient, in the written opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants delivered to the Trustee (which delivery shall only be required if U.S. Government Obligations have been so deposited), to pay

-61-

the principal amount of and interest on the outstanding Notes when due at maturity or upon redemption of all outstanding Notes, including interest thereon to maturity or such Redemption Date (other than Notes replaced or paid pursuant to Section 2.07), and if in either case the Company pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 9.01(c), cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Company.

The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

In the event that the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option, each Guarantor will be released from all of its obligations with respect to its Note Guarantee.

If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(d), 7.01(f), 7.01(g), 7.01(h) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries) or 7.01(i) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries) or the failure of the Company to comply with Section 6.01(c).

SECTION 9.02. Conditions to Defeasance.

(a) The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

(ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal

-62-

(v) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (1) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;

(vi) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and

SECTION 9.03. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article 9. 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 of and interest on the Notes.

The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money and U.S. Government Obligations received by it in respect of the outstanding Notes except as the Trustee may, at its sole option, otherwise agree with the Company.

-63-

SECTION 9.04. Repayment to the Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Company upon request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by them as provided in this Article 9 which, in the written opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants delivered to the Trustee (which delivery shall only be required if U.S. Government Obligations have been so deposited), are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent discharge or defeasance in accordance with this Article 9.

If money for the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes has been deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent and remains unclaimed for two years after such amount is due and payable, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for such funds and Holders entitled to the money must look only to the recipient and not to the Trustee for payment.

SECTION 9.05. Indemnity for Government Obligations. 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.

SECTION 9.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 9 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, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 9 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 9; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of interest on principal of any Notes because of the reinstatement of its Obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 10

GUARANTEES

SECTION 10.01. Guarantees.

(a) The Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that Guarantee borrowings under the Credit Agreement, and certain future Subsidiaries of the Company, as primary obligors and not merely as sureties, hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally Guarantee on an unsecured senior basis the performance and full and punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all obligations of the Company under this Indenture (including obligations to the Trustee) and the Notes, whether for payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all such obligations guaranteed by such Guarantors being herein called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor

-64-

further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from each such Guarantor, and that each such Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article 10 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.

(b) Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder or Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (vi) any change in the ownership of such Guarantor, except as provided in Section 10.02(b).

(c) Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have its obligations hereunder divided among the Guarantors, such that such Guarantor’s obligations would be less than the full amount claimed. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Company first be used and depleted as payment of the Company’s or such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid by such Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to require that the Company be sued prior to an action being initiated against such Guarantor.

(d) Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(e) Except as expressly set forth in Sections 9.01 and 10.02, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

-65-

(f) Except as expressly set forth in Sections 9.01 and 10.02, each Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

(g) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (iii) all other monetary obligations of the Company to the Holders and the Trustee.

(h) Each Guarantor agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 7 for the purposes of any Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 7, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 10.01.

(i) Each Guarantor also agrees to pay, in addition to the amount stated above, any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.

(j) Upon request of the Trustee, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.02. Limitation on Liability.

(a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed by the applicable Guarantor without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

(b) Any Guarantee of any Guarantor shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed to be released from all obligations under

-66-

this Article 10: (i) in connection with any sale of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person or group of Persons that is not (either or after giving effect to such transaction) an Affiliate of the Company, if such sale is made in compliance with Section 5.05 and, to the extent applicable, Section 6.01; (ii) if the Company designates such Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture; or (iii) if such Guarantor is released from its Guarantee of borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

In the event that the conditions specified in this Section 10.02(b) are satisfied and the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate to that effect, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing such release.

SECTION 10.03. Successors and Assigns. Each Guarantee is a continuing guarantee and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Trustee, the Holders and their successors, transferees and assigns.

SECTION 10.04. Execution of Supplemental Guarantee for Future Guarantors. Each Subsidiary which is required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.13 shall promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental guarantee in the form of Exhibit B hereto pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under this Article 10 and shall guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such supplemental guarantee to this Indenture, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such supplemental guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Subsidiary and that, subject to the application of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and to the principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, the Guarantee of such Guarantor is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms and or to such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request.

SECTION 10.05. Non-Impairment. The failure to endorse a Guarantee on any Note shall not affect or impair the validity thereof.

SECTION 10.06. Endorsement of Guarantees. To evidence its Guarantee set forth in this Article 10, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantee substantially in the form of Exhibit C to this Indenture shall be endorsed by an officer of such Guarantor on each Global Note authenticated and delivered by the Company; provided that the Guarantee set forth in this Article 10 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure of a Guarantor to endorse on each Note a notation of Guarantee.

ARTICLE 11

(i) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

(ii) provide for the assumption by a successor entity of the obligations of the Company under this Indenture;

(iii) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; provided, however, that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code;

(iv) add additional Guarantees of the Notes;

(v) secure the Notes;

(xi) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees to any provision of the Section titled “Description of Notes” within the prospectus supplement dated October 7, 2010 to the extent that such provision in this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Section titled “Description of Notes” within the prospectus supplement dated October 7, 2010.

(b) After an amendment under this Section 11.01 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 11.01.

SECTION 11.02. With Consent of Holders.

(a) The Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Notes without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Required Holders

-68-

(including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for the Notes). However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment may not:

(i) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement, waiver or modification;

(ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;

(iii) reduce the principal amount of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note;

(ix) release, other than in accordance with this Indenture, any Note Guarantee or collateral securing the Notes.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 11.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

(b) After an amendment under this Section 11.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 11.02.

SECTION 11.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Notes shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

SECTION 11.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers.

(a) A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of the Note if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate from the Company certifying

-69-

that the requisite number of consents have been received. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the (i) receipt by the Company or the Trustee of the requisite number of consents, (ii) satisfaction of conditions to effectiveness as set forth in this Indenture and any indenture supplemental hereto containing such amendment or waiver and (iii) execution of such amendment or waiver (or supplemental indenture) by the Company and the Trustee.

(b) The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

SECTION 11.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

SECTION 11.06. Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article 11 if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 8.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and the Guarantors enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 11.03).

A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depository’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be credited with a beneficial interest in the Global Note. The Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions instruct the Depository to credit to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.

1. Interest

CINCINNATI BELL INC., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 8.375% per annum from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from October 13, 2010. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing April 15, 2011, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of original issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date, except in the case of the original issuance of Notes, in which case interest shall accrue from the date of authentication. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. Method of Payment

The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Notes at the close of business on the April 1 or October 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date (the “Regular Record Date”) even if Notes are canceled after the record date and on or before the Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company will make all money payments in respect of a certificated Note (including principal and interest), at the office of the Paying Agent or, at the option of the Company, by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that money payments on the Notes shall be made, in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States of America if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

3. Paying Agent and Registrar

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon, a banking corporation organized under the laws of the State of New York (the “Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The

A-3

Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent and Registrar.

4. Indenture and Guarantees

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of October 13, 2010 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes 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) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “TIA”). Terms defined in the Indenture and used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all terms and provisions of the Indenture, and Holders (as defined in the Indenture) are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms and provisions.

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. This Note is one of the series of the Notes that are referred to in the Indenture issued in an aggregate original principal amount of $500,000,000. The Notes include the Notes issued on the Closing Date and any Additional Notes. The Notes issued on the Closing Date and Additional Notes, if any, are treated as a single class of Notes under the Indenture. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, make certain Investments and other Restricted Payments, pay dividends and other distributions, incur Indebtedness, enter into consensual restrictions upon the payment of certain dividends and distributions by such Restricted Subsidiaries, issue or sell shares of Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiaries, enter into or permit certain transactions with Affiliates and make asset sales. The Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the Company to consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the property of the Company.

The Notes are guaranteed, on a senior unsecured basis, by all existing and future Restricted Subsidiaries that are or shall become Guarantors in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in multiples of $1,000. If money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Paying Agent on or before the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date, cash interest ceases to accrue on such Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

8. Repurchase of Notes at the Option of Holders upon Change of Control and Sale of Assets

After any such payment, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for such funds and Holders entitled to the money must look only to the recipient and not to the Trustee for payment.

12. Discharge and Defeasance

Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time may terminate some of or all its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

13. Amendment, Waiver

Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without notice to or the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Company, the Guarantors and the

A-6

Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Notes to: (a) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency; (b) provide for the assumption by a successor entity of the obligations of the Company under the Indenture; (c) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; provided, however, that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code; (d) add additional Guarantees of the Notes; (e) secure the Notes; (f) add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company in the Indenture; (g) comply with any requirement of the Commission in connection with qualifying, or maintaining the qualification of, the Indenture under the TIA; (h) make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder, subject to the provisions of the Indenture; (i) provide for the issuance of Additional Notes; (j) change the name or title of the Notes, and any conforming changes related thereto or (k) to conform the text of the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees to any provision under the heading “Description of Notes” in the prospectus supplement, dated October 7, 2010 related to the offering and sale by the Company of the Notes, to the extent that such provision in the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision under such heading.

14. Defaults, Remedies and Acceleration

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company occurs, the principal of and interest on all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. Under certain circumstances, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal or interest when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless (i) such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing, (ii) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee in writing to pursue the remedy, (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense, (iv) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity and (v) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request during such 60-day period. Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising

A-7

any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or, subject to certain exceptions in the Indenture, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

15. Trustee Dealings with the Company

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

16. No Recourse Against Others

A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation.

WHEREAS, Section 10.04 of the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Company is required to cause the New Guarantor to execute and deliver to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders a supplemental agreement pursuant to which the New Guarantor shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes pursuant to a Note Guarantee on the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the New Guarantor covenants and agrees for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:

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

2. AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE. The New Guarantor hereby agrees, jointly and severally with all other Guarantors, to unconditionally guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Notes on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Article 10 of the Indenture and to be bound by all other applicable provisions of the Indenture.

3. RATIFICATION OF SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTEE; SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTEES PART OF INDENTURE.

[LETTERHEAD OF CRAVATH, SWAINE &

MOORE LLP]

October 13, 2010

Cincinnati Bell Inc.

$500,000,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of

8  ³/8% Senior Notes due 2020

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for Cincinnati Bell Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the public offering and sale by the Company of $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8 ³/8% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”) to be issued under an indenture dated as of October 13, 2010 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company party thereto as guarantors (the “Guarantors”) and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

In that connection, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion, including the Indenture and the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-162211), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 30, 2009, as amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 thereto, filed with the Commission on March 10, 2010 and by Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 thereto, filed with the Commission on October 7, 2010, for registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) of an indeterminate amount of debt securities to be issued from time to time by the Company (the “Registration Statement”). As to various questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied upon representations of officers or directors of the Company and documents furnished to us by the Company without independent verification of their accuracy. We have also assumed (a) the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, (b) that the Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and represents a legal, valid and binding obligation of, the Trustee, (c) that the Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantors and (d) that the

2

Notes and the guarantees of the Notes by the Guarantors (the “Guarantees”) have been duly authorized and executed.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth herein, we are of opinion that when the Notes are authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered and paid for, (a) the Notes will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and (b) the Guarantees will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Guarantors, enforceable against the Guarantors in accordance with their terms and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture (subject, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect and to general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. We also consent to the reference to our firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.

We are admitted to practice in the State of New York, and we express no opinion as to matters governed by any laws other than the laws of the State of New York and the Federal laws of the United States of America. In particular, we do not purport to pass on any matter governed by the laws of Ohio or Virginia.

Very truly yours,
