WHEREAS the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee heretofore executed and delivered an Indenture dated as of August 14, 2001, in respect of the Issuers’ 8.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture dated September 19, 2001, the Second Supplemental Indenture dated May 20, 2002, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated November 18, 2002 and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated May 7, 2003 (such indenture, as supplemented, the “Indenture”);

 

WHEREAS, the Additional Guarantors each have agreed to become a “Guarantor” under the Indenture, in each case in order to unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuers’ obligations under the Securities pursuant to a Guarantee on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Indenture, the parties hereto are authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the Issuers, the Additional Guarantors and the Trustee agree as follows for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities:

 

ARTICLE I

 

Guarantee

 

SECTION 1.01.  a.  Guarantees.

 

(i)            In consideration of good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Additional Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as of the respective effective dates shown on Schedule I hereto, jointly and

 

2



 

severally, on a senior subordinated basis (the “Guarantee”) to each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Securities or the obligations of the Issuers under the Indenture or the Securities, that: (w) the principal and premium (if any) of and interest (and Liquidated Damages, if any) on the Securities will be paid in full when due, whether at the maturity or interest payment date, by acceleration, call for redemption, upon an Change of Control Offer, an Asset Sale Offer or otherwise; (x) all other obligations of the Issuers to the Holders or the Trustee under the Indenture or the Securities will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Securities; and (y) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or any of such other obligations, they will be paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption, upon an Offer to Purchase or otherwise.  Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, each Additional Guarantor shall be obligated to pay the same before failure so to pay becomes an Event of Default.

 

(ii)           Each Additional Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations with regard to this Guarantee shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuers, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.  Each Additional Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuers, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuers or right to require the prior disposition of the assets of the Issuers to meet its obligations, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Securities and the Indenture.

 

(iii)          If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to either the Issuers or any Additional Guarantor, or any Custodian, Trustee, or similar official acting in relation to either the Issuers or such Additional Guarantor, any amount paid by either the Issuers or such Additional Guarantor to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.  Each Additional Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.  Each Additional Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Additional Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the obligations

 

3



 

guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 6.2 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration as to the Issuers of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of those obligations as provided in Section 6.2 of the Indenture, those obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by each of the Additional Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee.

 

(iv)          Each Additional Guarantor and by its acceptance of a Security issued hereunder each Holder hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee by such Additional Guarantor set forth in Section 1.01(a)(i) not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purpose of any Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar United States Federal or state law.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and such Additional Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Additional Guarantor under its guarantee set forth in Section 1.01(a)(i) shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Additional Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to the following paragraph of this Section 1.01(a)(iv), result in the obligations of such Additional Guarantor under such guarantee not constituting such a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

 

Each Additional Guarantor that makes any payment or distribution under Section 1.01(a)(i) shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor equal to its Pro Rata amount of such payment or distribution so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantees.  For purposes of the foregoing, the “Pro Rata amount” of any Guarantor means the percentage of the net assets of all Guarantors held by such Additional Guarantor, determined in accordance with GAAP.

 

b.             Execution and Delivery of Guarantee

 

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 1.01(a), each Additional Guarantor agrees that a notation of such Guarantee substantially in the form annexed to the Indenture as Exhibit B shall be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Supplemental Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Additional Guarantor by one Officer by manual or facsimile signature.

 

Each Additional Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 1.01 shall remain in full force and effect and apply to all the Securities notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Guarantee.

 

4



 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security on which a Guarantee is endorsed, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

 

The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in the Indenture on behalf of each Additional Guarantor.

 

c.             Certain Bankruptcy Events.

 

Each Additional Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that in the event of the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of either of the Issuers, such Additional Guarantor shall not file (or join in any filing of), or otherwise seek to participate in the filing of, any motion or request seeking to stay or to prohibit (even temporarily) execution on the Guarantee and hereby waives and agrees not to take the benefit of any such stay of execution, whether under Section 362 or 105 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

 

d.             Limitation on Merger, Consolidation, etc. of Additional Guarantors.

 

No Additional Guarantor shall consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not such Additional Guarantor is the surviving person) another person (other than either Issuer or another Guarantor) unless (i) subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Additional Guarantor) assumes all the obligations of such Additional Guarantor pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, pursuant to which such person shall unconditionally guarantee, on a senior subordinated basis, all of such Additional Guarantor’s obligations under such Additional Guarantor’s Guarantee and the Indenture on the terms set forth in the Indenture; and (ii) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the sale or disposition (whether by merger, stock purchase, or otherwise) of an Additional Guarantor in its entirety to an entity which is not a Subsidiary or the designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, which transaction is otherwise in compliance with the Indenture (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 4.13 of the Indenture), such Additional Guarantor will be deemed released from its obligations under its Guarantee of the Securities; provided, however, that any such termination shall occur only to the extent that all obligations of such Additional Guarantor under all of its guarantees of, and under all of its pledges of assets or other security interests which secure, any Indebtedness of either Issuer or any of their Subsidiaries shall also terminate upon such release, sale or transfer.

 

SECTION 1.02.  Trustee’s Acceptance.  The Trustee hereby accepts this Supplemental Indenture and agrees to perform the same under the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture.

SECTION 2.03.  Severability.  In case any provision in this Supplemental Indenture shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

SECTION 2.04.  Terms Defined in the Indenture.  All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.  Where the context requires, the term “Guarantors” includes both the “Additional Guarantors” (defined herein) and the “Guarantors” party to the Indenture.

 

SECTION 2.05.  Headings.  The Article and Section headings of this Supplemental Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

 

SECTION 2.06.  Benefits of Supplemental Indenture, etc.  Nothing in this Supplemental Indenture or the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and thereto and their successors hereunder and thereunder and the Holders of the Securities, any benefit of any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture or the Securities.

SECTION 2.09.  Certain Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee.  In entering into this Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to the benefit of every provision of the Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability or affording protection to the Trustee, whether or not elsewhere herein so provided.

 

SECTION 2.10.  Governing Law.  This Supplemental Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, as applied to contracts made and performed within the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.  The Issuers and each Additional Guarantor hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of any New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York or any Federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York in respect of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Supplemental Indenture, and irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts.  The Issuers and each Additional Guarantor irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, trial by jury and any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.  Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Trustee or any securityholder to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Issuers or any Additional Guarantor in any other jurisdiction.

 

SECTION 2.11.  Duplicate Originals.  All parties may sign any number of copies or counterparts of this Supplemental Indenture.  Each signed copy or counterpart shall be an original, but all of them together shall represent the same agreement.
