(v)The Company and the Registrar shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection or (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

46

registration of transfers and exchanges, upon surrender of any Note for registration of transfer or exchange at an office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.03, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate, Notes of a like aggregate principal amount at the Registrar’s request.

SECTION 2.07.  Replacement Notes.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order or in accordance with a previously delivered Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Company’s and the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any Authenticating Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note issued in accordance with this Section 2.07 is an additional obligation of the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

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.

47

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.

SECTION 2.08.  Outstanding Notes.

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09, 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 receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

SECTION 2.09.  Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

SECTION 2.10.  Temporary Notes.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

SECTION 2.11.  Cancellation.

The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and 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, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose canceled Notes in accordance with customary practices (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the disposal of all canceled Notes shall be delivered to the Company from time to time upon written request. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

48

SECTION 2.12.  Defaulted Interest.

If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than ten days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall send or cause to be sent to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

SECTION 2.13.  Issuance of Additional Notes.  

The Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.09 and Section 4.12, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture which shall have identical terms as the Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price and, if applicable, the first payment of interest; provided that if any such Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for United States federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will be issued under a separate CUSIP number.  

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

SECTION 2.14.  One Class of Securities.

The Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture.

SECTION 2.15.  CUSIP, ISIN or Other Similar Numbers.

The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or other similar numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or other similar numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided 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.  The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or other similar numbers.

49

Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not in a minimum amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

SECTION 3.03.  Notice of Redemption.

(ix)any conditions precedent.

(b) At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 15 days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.03(a).

SECTION 3.04.  Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Subject to the satisfaction of any conditions to such redemption, once the notice of redemption is sent in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption shall become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price.

52

constitute a Change of Control) may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion of such transaction and may be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering, debt incurrence or Change of Control.

The Company and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or

(b) Section 4.09(a) shall not prohibit:

63

64

(A)the Company would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first sentence of this Section 4.09, or

(B)the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is equal to or greater than such ratio immediately prior to such acquisition or merger;

(xvii)  Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to an Unrestricted Subsidiary for money borrowed; provided that such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Restricted Subsidiary’s Subsidiary Guarantee, the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Indebtedness is greater than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Notes and the holders of such Indebtedness are not permitted to accelerate such Indebtedness or exercise any other remedies with respect thereto until July 31, 2025; and

(xviii)  Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with respect to Digital Projector Financing in an aggregate principal amount incurred not to exceed (i) $70.0 million during the period from June 9, 2009 to the first anniversary thereof; (ii) $70.0 million during the period

65

from the first anniversary of such date to the second anniversary of such date and (iii) $60.0 million; provided that any unused or repaid amounts may be carried forward and used in subsequent periods without limitation.

(c) No Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Guarantor may incur any Indebtedness if the proceeds are used to refinance Indebtedness of the Company or a Guarantor (other than a refinancing of all the Notes).

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories described in clauses (i) through (xviii) of Section 4.09(b), or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Company shall be permitted to classify and divide and later classify, reclassify and divide (in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09, provided that all Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have been incurred on the Issue Date pursuant to clause (i) of Section 4.09(b) and the Company shall not be permitted to later reclassify all or any portion of such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date under the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, or preferred stock of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof.

(e) This Indenture does not treat (i) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated to secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, (ii) Senior Debt that is secured Indebtedness as subordinated to any other Senior Debt that is secured Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral, (iii) any Indebtedness as subordinated to any other Indebtedness merely because of maturity date, order of payment or order of application of funds or (iv) Indebtedness that is not Guaranteed as subordinated to Indebtedness that is Guaranteed merely because of such Guarantee.

SECTION 4.10.  Asset Sales.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

66

(b) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply those Net Proceeds at its option to:

(iv) a combination of the foregoing;  

provided that, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted final application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment if the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that an amount equal to the amount of such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days after the end of the 365-day period (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled, terminated or otherwise not consummated during such period for any reason, then an amount equal to the amount of any such unapplied Net Proceeds shall upon such event constitute Excess Proceeds.

(c) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(b) shall constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $35.0 million, the Company shall make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of Notes to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes that may be purchased with an amount equal to the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase, subject to, without duplication, the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, in accordance with this Indenture.  If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer (“Declined Excess Proceeds”), those Declined Excess Proceeds shall be automatically released from the Notes Liens and the Company may use those Declined Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of notes tendered in any Asset Sale Offer by Holders exceeds

67

the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amounts tendered, but no notes shall be selected and purchased in an unauthorized denomination. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Proceeds prior to the expiration of the foregoing 365-day period.

(d) All references in this Section 4.10 to “Net Proceeds” and “Excess Proceeds” shall be deemed to mean cash in an amount equal to the amount of Net Proceeds or Excess Proceeds, as applicable, but not necessarily the actual cash received from the relevant Asset Sale.  The Collateral Agent shall, upon request of the Company pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate, disburse Trust Monies from the Collateral Account to or for the benefit of the Company for the purposes described in Sections 4.10(b) and (c), and the Notes Liens on such Trust Monies shall be automatically released upon such disbursement.

(e) If the Asset Sale purchase date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Holder in whose name a note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

(f) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will send (or provide in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state:

68

(g) On or before the Asset Sale Offer purchase date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the offer amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the offer amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.10. The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Asset Sale purchase date) mail (or provide in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Company, will authenticate and mail (or provide in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed (or provided in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Asset Sale Offer purchase date.

(h) The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.10, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall be deemed not to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

SECTION 4.11.  Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of any Affiliate (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $25.0 million, unless:

(A)  with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.11; and

69

(B)  with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $75.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and the Company set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.11 and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and the Company.

(b) The following items shall be deemed to not be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a):

70

SECTION 4.12.  Liens.

(a) The Company shall not and shall not permit any Guarantor to create, incur, assume or otherwise cause to become effective any Lien (other than (i) Permitted Liens that do not secure funded Indebtedness and (ii) Permitted Liens described in clause (xxxvii) of the definition of Permitted Liens) of any kind securing Indebtedness upon Collateral, now owned or hereafter acquired.

(b) The Company shall not and shall not permit any Guarantor to create, incur, assume or otherwise cause to become effective any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) of any kind securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets (including Capital Stock of Subsidiaries of the Company) that does not constitute Collateral, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless contemporaneously with the incurrence of such Lien effective provision is made to secure the Obligations due under this Indenture and the Notes or, in respect of any Lien on any Guarantor’s property or assets, any Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor, (i) in the case of Liens securing Indebtedness that is pari passu in right of payment with the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee, on an equal and ratable basis with (or, if the Company so elects, on a senior basis to) the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien and (ii) in the case of Liens securing Indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee, on a senior basis to the obligations so secured with the same relative priority as the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantee, as the case may be, shall have to that subordinated Indebtedness until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien.

(c) Any Lien created for the benefit of Holders of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.12(b) shall be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of each of the Liens described in clauses (i) and (ii) in Section 4.12(b).

SECTION 4.13.  Corporate Existence.

Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 4.14.  Offer to Repurchase upon Change of Control.

  (a) If a Change of Control occurs, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of that Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth in this Indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company shall offer a payment in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). Within 30 days

71

following any Change of Control, the Company shall send (or provide in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) a notice to each Holder stating: (i) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 (and describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control) and that all Notes tendered shall be accepted for payment; (ii) the purchase price and the Change of Control Payment Date, which shall be no earlier than 15 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent; (iii) that any Note not tendered shall continue to accrue interest, if any; (iv) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest, if any, after the Change of Control Payment Date; (v) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Notes completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; (vi) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have the Notes purchased; and (vii) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b)On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(i)accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(ii)deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(iii)deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company.

(c)The Paying Agent shall promptly mail (or electronically deliver) to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(d)If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in an offer to purchase the Notes upon a Change of Control and the Company, or any third party making such offer to purchase the Notes upon a Change of Control in lieu of the Company, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company shall have the right, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice, given not more than 15 days following the purchase date, to redeem the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

(e)If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the

72

Holder in whose name a note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no other interest, if any, will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

(f)The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or if an irrevocable notice of redemption has been given pursuant to this Indenture in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.07 for all outstanding Notes.

(g)The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.14, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall be deemed not to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.14 by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

SECTION 4.15.  Future Guarantors.

If any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Guarantor (the “New Guarantor”) (i) Guarantees, assumes or in any other manner becomes liable with respect to Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor (the “Other Indebtedness”) or (ii) acquires, owns or otherwise holds a direct ownership interest in any assets that constitute Collateral (a “Collateral Event”), then the Company shall and shall cause the New Guarantor to, within ten Business Days of the date of the New Guarantor’s Guarantee or assumption of the Other Indebtedness or occurrence of a Collateral Event, execute and deliver to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto pursuant to which the New Guarantor shall become a Guarantor and Guarantee the obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes (i) in the case of a New Guarantor that holds direct ownership interests in assets that constitute Collateral, on a senior secured basis and (ii) in the case of a New Guarantor that does not hold direct ownership interests in assets that constitute Collateral, on a senior unsecured basis, and take such action (or agree to take such action, subject to the time period for granting Liens on additional Collateral in accordance with Article 11 hereof) as may be reasonably necessary to cause any property or assets that constitute Collateral owned by such New Guarantor to be subject to Notes Liens in the manner and to the extent required under the Security Documents. If a New Guarantor does not own or otherwise hold a direct ownership interest in any Collateral, upon the release, termination or satisfaction of the New Guarantor’s Guarantee or assumption of all Other Indebtedness (other than a release, termination or satisfaction as a result of payment under such Guarantee), the New Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee shall automatically be released and terminated. Upon request of the New Guarantor, the Trustee shall provide written evidence of such release and termination. The Subsidiary Guarantee of any Guarantor that is not a New Guarantor shall be released and terminated upon written notice from the Company to the Trustee if, at the time of such notice, such Restricted Subsidiary would have no obligation to become a Guarantor under this covenant. The Subsidiary Guarantee of any Guarantor will also be released in other circumstances in accordance with Article 12 hereof.

SECTION 4.16.  Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated shall be

73

deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and shall reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation shall only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Company may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the redesignation would not cause a Default.

ARTICLE 5.

74

(v)  if the Company is not the surviving corporation, each Guarantor (unless it is the other party to the transactions above, in which case clause (ii) shall apply) shall have by supplemental indenture confirmed that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall apply to such Person’s obligations in respect of the Notes and this Indenture and its obligations under the Security Documents shall continue to be in effect.

(b) In addition, the Company may not, directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to any other Person.

(c) Notwithstanding clause (iv) of Section 5.01(a), any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to the Company or any Guarantor.

(d) Unless such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition or a contemporaneous event or circumstance, or a series of contemporaneous events or circumstances, results in the release of the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor pursuant to and in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, the Company will not permit any Guarantor, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions to: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving entity); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, taken as a whole, to another Person (other than to the Company or another Guarantor); unless:

SECTION 5.02.  Successor Corporation Substituted.

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 5.01(a) hereof, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the Company shall refer instead to the successor corporation and not to the Company), and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein, provided, however, that the predecessor company shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes (and its obligations to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06) except in the case of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole that meets the requirements of Section 5.01 hereof.

75

ARTICLE 6.
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

SECTION 6.01.  Events of Default.

An “Event of Default” occurs if:

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $50.0 million or more;

76

(a)is for relief against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in an involuntary case;

(b)appoints a Custodian of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or such Subsidiary; or

(c)orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

and in each case the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; or

(xi)(a) except as permitted by the Security Documents, the Liens created by the Security Documents securing the notes or Subsidiary Guarantees shall at any time not constitute valid and perfected Liens on any material portion of the Collateral intended to be covered thereby (to the extent perfection by filing, registration, recordation or possession is required by this Indenture or the Security Documents); provided that it will not be an Event of Default under this clause (xi)(a) if Notes Liens purported to be granted under the Security Documents on Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having a fair market value of not more than $35.0 million, fail to be valid and perfected Notes Liens; provided further that if such failure is susceptible to cure, no Event of Default shall arise with respect thereto until 30 days after any officer of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary becomes aware of such failure, which failure has not been cured during such time period or (b) the Company or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any of them, denies or disaffirms, in writing, any obligation of the Company or any Guarantor set forth in or arising under any Security Document establishing Notes Liens

SECTION 6.02.  Acceleration.

77

(a) In the case of an Event of Default arising from clause (ix) or (x) of Section 6.01 with respect to the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice.  If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall become due and payable immediately. The Trustee has no duty or obligation to determine whether an Event of Default has occurred as a result of the events described above and shall have notice of such events only in accordance with Section 7.02(i) herein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) of Section 6.01 shall have occurred and be continuing, such Event of Default and any consequential acceleration shall be automatically rescinded if (i) the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been repaid or (ii) if the default relating to such Indebtedness is waived or cured and if such Indebtedness has been accelerated, then the Holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness.

Any such declaration with respect to the Notes may be rescinded and annulled by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee if (i) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal of or interest on the Notes that has become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, (iii) to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest (at the same rate specified in the Notes) on overdue installments of interest and overdue payments of principal, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid, (iv) the Company has paid the Trustee its reasonable compensation and reimbursed the Trustee for its expenses, disbursements and advances and (v) in the event of the cure or waiver of a Default or Event of Default of the type described in clauses (ix) and (x) of Section 6.01 the Trustee has received an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel that such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived.  No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

(b) If the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their stated maturity, in each case as a result of an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, an Event of Default specified in clauses (ix) and (x) of Section 6.01 (including the acceleration of any portion of the Indebtedness evidenced by the notes by operation of law)), then the amount that shall then be due and payable on the Premium Effective Date shall be equal to:

(x)        (i) if the Premium Effective Date is before May 1, 2022, 100% of the principal amount of the notes then outstanding plus the Applicable Premium in effect on the Premium Effective Date or (ii) if the Premium Effective Date is on or after May 1, 2022, the applicable redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) in effect on the Premium Effective Date, as applicable, plus

(y)        accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Premium Effective Date,

in each case as if such acceleration gave rise to an optional redemption of the Notes so accelerated on the Premium Effective Date.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their stated maturity, in each case, as a result of an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, an Event of Default specified in clauses (ix) and (x) of Section 6.01 (including the acceleration of any portion of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes by operation of law)), the Applicable Premium or the amount by which the applicable redemption price exceeds the principal amount of the Notes (the “Redemption Price

78

Premium”), as applicable, with respect to an optional redemption of the Notes shall be due and payable as though the Notes had been optionally redeemed on the Premium Effective Date and shall constitute part of the Obligations with respect to the Notes in view of the impracticability and difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Holder’s lost profits as a result thereof.  The Redemption Price Premium shall be presumed to be liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as the result of the payment or settlement of the Notes or a claim in a proceeding described in clauses (ix) and (x) of Section 6.01 in respect of the Notes, in each case arising out of the acceleration of the Notes, or in the event the Notes or this Indenture are satisfied, released or discharged through foreclosure after acceleration of the Notes, whether by judicial proceeding, deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means (the date of such payment, settlement, satisfaction, release or discharge being the “Premium Effective Date”). The Company and each Guarantor agrees that the Redemption Price Premium is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing.  THE COMPANY AND EACH GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH PAYMENT, SETTLEMENT, SATISFACTION, RELEASE OR DISCHARGE AFTER SUCH AN ACCELERATION. The Company and each Guarantor expressly agrees (to the fullest extent they may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Redemption Price Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business entities ably represented by counsel; (B) the Redemption Price Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the Premium Effective Date; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Holders and the Company giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Redemption Price Premium; and (D) the Company shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this Section 6.02(b). The Company expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Redemption Price Premium to the Holders as herein described is a material inducement to the Holders to purchase the Notes.

SECTION 6.03.  Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal amount, premium on, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding 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 of a Note 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. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

SECTION 6.04.  Waiver of Past Defaults.

Subject to Sections 2.09, 6.07 and 9.02, Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium on, or interest on the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that, subject to Section 6.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

79

SECTION 6.05.  Control by Majority.

Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability.

SECTION 6.06.  Limitation on Suits.

A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if:

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

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

(c)such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

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

(e)during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

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

SECTION 6.07.  Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal amount, premium, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), 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 6.08.  Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or (ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal amount of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

SECTION 6.09.  Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the

Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

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

SECTION 7.03.  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 either the Company or any Guarantor or any Affiliate of the Company or any Guarantor with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

SECTION 7.04.  Trustee’s Disclaimer.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes or any security for the payment of the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

SECTION 7.05.  Notice of Defaults.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall send to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs.  Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 7.06.  Compensation and Indemnity.

The Company shall pay to each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and its respective services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.

84

The Company shall reimburse the Trustee and the Collateral Agent promptly upon written request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s and Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel.

The Company shall indemnify the Trustee and the Collateral Agent against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company (including this Section 7.06) and 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, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its own negligence or failure to act in good faith. The Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent and shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel, which will be the counsel for the Collateral Agent as well, and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent, the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the termination of this Indenture.

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee, the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the termination of this Indenture.

In addition and without prejudice to its rights hereunder, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(ix) or (x) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 7.07.  Replacement of Trustee.

A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section.

The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of Notes of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if:

(a)the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09;

(b)the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(c)a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(d)the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

85

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

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

If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder of a Note who has been a Holder of a Note for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.09, such Holder of a Note may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

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 send a notice of its succession to Holders of the Notes. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.06. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.07, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.06 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.08.  Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another Person, the successor Person without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

SECTION 7.09.  Eligibility; Disqualification.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and (i) that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition, or (ii) that is a wholly owned subsidiary of a bank or bank holding company which has a consolidated net worth in excess of $50 million.

86

SECTION 8.02.  Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from all of its obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes, this Indenture and the Security Documents and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to their Subsidiary Guarantees, this Indenture and the Security Documents and all Notes Liens released on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same); provided that the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.05; (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust; (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company’s and the Guarantor’s obligations in connection therewith; and (d) this Article 8.

For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant or agreement, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or agreement or by reason of any reference in any such covenant or agreement to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, Sections 6.01(iv) through 6.01(viii) and Section 6.01(xi) shall not constitute Events of Default.

87

(a)the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants in the case of non-callable Government Securities (or, if a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants declines to issue such opinion after the Company has made reasonable efforts to obtain such an opinion, in the opinion of the Company’s chief financial officer), to pay the principal of, and interest, premium, if any, on the outstanding Notes on their Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(b)in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the Issue Date, 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 of the outstanding Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and shall 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 Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(c)in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and shall 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;

(d)no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the incurrence of Indebtedness all or a portion of the proceeds of which shall be used to defease the Notes pursuant to this Article 8 concurrently with such incurrence and the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(e)such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

(f)the Company must have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, assuming that no intervening bankruptcy of the Company between the date of the deposit and the 91st day following the deposit will occur and that no Holder of Notes is an insider of the Company under applicable bankruptcy law, no trust funds will be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally;

(g)the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Company or others; and

(h)the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

88

Subject to Section 8.06, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal of or premium, if any, or interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the case of non-callable Government Securities in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (or, if a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants declines to issue such opinion after the Company has made reasonable efforts to obtain such an opinion, in the opinion of the Company’s chief financial officer), (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

SECTION 8.06.  Repayment to the Company.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as a creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 8.07.  Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any

89

(viii)impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes;

(ix)release any Guarantor from any of its Obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or

(x)make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions.

For avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.02(b) does not apply to Sections 4.10 and 4.14, definitions and other provisions related thereto and payments required thereunder; provided that Sections 4.10 and

91

4.14, definitions and other provisions related thereto and payments required thereunder shall be governed by Section 9.02(a).

(c) Without the consent of the Holders of at least 66 2/3% in principal amount of the Notes, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may not effect a release of all or substantially all of the Collateral securing the Notes or Subsidiary Guarantees other than pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents or as otherwise permitted by this Indenture.

(d)  Subject to Section 9.05, upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02, the Trustee (and, if applicable, the Collateral Agent) shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s (or, if applicable, the Collateral Agent’s) own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee (or, if applicable, the Collateral Agent) may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.

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

SECTION 9.03.  Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

SECTION 9.04.  Notice of Amendment; Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

After any amendment under this Article becomes effective, the Company shall send to Holders of Notes a notice briefly describing such amendment.  The failure to give such notice to all Holders of Notes, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Article.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 9.05.  Trustee to Sign Amendments, Etc.

The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement, in the sole discretion of the Trustee, does not adversely affect the

92

rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Company may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until its Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 13.03, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

ARTICLE 10.

(b)no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit or shall occur as a result of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the granting of Liens in connection therewith) and the deposit shall not result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

(c)the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture; and

(d)the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at their Stated Maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

SECTION 10.02.  Deposited Cash and Government Securities.

All cash and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 10.02, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 10.01 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, but such cash and securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

SECTION 10.03.  Repayment to Company.

SECTION 10.04.  Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Sections 10.01 and 10.02, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Sections 10.01 and 10.02 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Sections 10.01 and 10.02, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on any Note following 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 held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

SECTION 11.02.  Collateral Agent.

(a)The Company hereby appoints Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. to act as Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall have the duties, rights, indemnities, privileges, powers and immunities of the Collateral Agent as set forth herein and in the Security Documents.  The Company and the Guarantors hereby agree that the Collateral Agent or its nominee shall hold the Collateral, on a first-priority basis, in trust for the benefit of all of the Holders and the Trustee, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents and the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and deliver the Security Documents.  

(b)Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents shall be responsible or liable for the legality, enforceability, effectiveness or sufficiency of the Security Documents, for the creation, perfection, priority, sufficiency, maintenance, renewal or protection of any Notes Lien with respect to the Notes, or for any defect or deficiency as to any such matters, or for any failure to demand, collect, foreclose or realize upon or otherwise enforce any of the Notes Liens with respect to the Notes or Security Documents or any delay in doing so.

(c)The Collateral Agent shall be subject to such directions as may be given it by the Trustee from time to time (as required or permitted by this Indenture).  Except as directed by the Trustee as required or permitted by this Indenture or as required or permitted by the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated:

(1)to act upon directions purported to be delivered to it by any other Person;

(2)to foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any Notes Lien with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees; or

(3)to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any or all of the Notes Liens with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees, Security Documents or Collateral.

95

(d)The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the enforcement of the Notes Liens with respect to the Notes, the Guarantees or the Security Documents.

(e)In acting as Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may rely upon and enforce for its own benefit each and all of the rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and benefits of the Trustee under Article 7 hereof, each of which shall also be deemed to be for the benefit of the Collateral Agent.

(f)At all times when the Trustee is not itself the Collateral Agent, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Security Documents delivered to the Collateral Agent and copies of all documents delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents.

(g)Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture and the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Indenture and in the Security Documents, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder, the Company or any Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture and the Security Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Collateral Agent shall not be construed to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.  Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Indenture and the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall exercise or refrain from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which the Collateral Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Indenture and the Security Documents, including the exercise or remedies pursuant to Article 6, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Trustee and the Holders.

The Company shall and shall cause each of the Guarantors to, except for Collateral disposed of in an Asset Sale (or a disposition excluded from the term “Asset Sale” pursuant to the definition thereof): (i) at all times maintain, preserve and protect all Collateral and keep such Collateral in good repair, working order and condition, in each case if and to the extent required in connection with the Company’s and the Guarantors’ business operations at such time (other than wear and tear occurring in the ordinary course of business) if the failure to do so could materially and adversely affect the value, use or occupancy of any property constituting Collateral; (ii) from time to time make, or cause to be made, all necessary and proper repairs, renewals, additions, improvements and replacements to any Collateral necessary in order that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, in each case if and to the extent required in connection with the Company’s and the Guarantors’ business operations at such time, if the failure to do so could materially and adversely affect the value, use or occupancy of any property constituting Collateral; and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to keep its insurable Collateral insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers.

SECTION 11.04.  No Impairment of the Security Interests.

Other than actions and omissions permitted pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents and this Indenture, including, without limitation, the rights of the holders of any senior Liens and the rights of the Company pursuant to Section 11.07, neither the Company nor any of the Guarantors shall take any action or knowingly omit to take any action, which action or omission would have the

96

result of materially impairing the security interest with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Holders.

SECTION 11.05.  Further Assurances.

The Company and the Guarantors shall, at their sole expense, execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions which the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request in writing to create, better assure, preserve, protect, defend and perfect the security interest and the rights and remedies created under the Security Documents (subject to the limitations thereon set forth in the Security Documents) for the Collateral Agent and the Holders (subject to certain Permitted Liens). Such security interests and Liens will be created under the Security Documents and, to the extent necessary, other instruments and documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

(a)a first priority mortgage or deed of trust in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, subject to no Liens other than certain Permitted Liens. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the covenant in this Section 11.06(a) shall be deemed to be satisfied with respect to any mortgage or deed of trust covering leased real property located in a county in which the real property recording office is not accepting filings, if such mortgage or deed of trust (i) has been duly executed by the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable and (ii) is deposited with an escrow agent together with instructions to record such mortgage or deed of trust in the appropriate real property records at such time as the applicable recording office commences accepting real property filings (each such mortgage or deed of trust, a “Delayed Recording Mortgage”);

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to each Delayed Recording Mortgage, the covenant in this Section 11.06(b) shall be deemed to be satisfied if (1) the deliveries required with respect to a Delayed Recording Mortgage pursuant to Section 11.06(a)(i) have been satisfied, and (2) the title company issuing the applicable title insurance policy is committed to issuing such final title insurance policy in the same form as the pro forma policy upon the recordation of the applicable Delayed Recording Mortgage;

(c)such surveys (or any updates or affidavits of no change) that the title insurance company may reasonably request in connection with the issuance of the title insurance policies and sufficient for the title insurance company to remove the standard survey exception and issue the survey related endorsements;

(d)if and to the extent available using commercially reasonable efforts, any consents or estoppels reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the granting of a mortgage or deed of trust or reasonably requested by the title insurance company issuing the title insurance policies;

(e)local counsel opinions in each jurisdiction where the property subject to the mortgage or deed of trust is located regarding the perfection and enforceability of such mortgage or deed of trust and such other matters incidental thereto, and the authority to do business in, and good standing of, the Company and/or the applicable Guarantor, in such jurisdiction;

(f)such affidavits, certificates and indemnifications as shall be reasonably requested by the title insurance company to issue the title insurance policies, including any updated or new affidavits, certificates and indemnification as the title company may require as a result of a Delayed Recording Mortgage and the issuance of the final title insurance policies in connection therewith, and evidence of payment by the Company of all search and examination charges, mortgage recording taxes, fees, charges, costs and expenses required for the recording of the mortgages and deeds of trust;

(g)with respect to each leased real property subject to a mortgage or deed of trust, a complete copy of each lease and evidence that a short form lease or lease memorandum has or will be been duly recorded in the local real estate records; and

(h)with respect to each leased real property subject to a mortgage or deed of trust, if and to the extent available using commercially reasonable efforts, copies of valid, binding and enforceable landlord agreements conferring on the Collateral Agent rights of default notice, cure opportunity or other customary leasehold lender protections as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent.

SECTION 11.07.  Release of Liens.

(a)The Notes Liens securing the Guarantee of any Guarantor will be automatically released when such Guarantor’s Guarantee is released in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

(b)The Notes Liens on an item of Collateral will be automatically released with respect to the Notes and the Note Guarantees, as applicable:

(1)upon the discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Section 10.01;

(6)in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor that owns such Collateral or a parent entity of such Guarantor, after which such Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary of the Company, if such sale, transfer or other disposition complies with (or is excluded from) the applicable provisions of this Indenture (including Section 4.10);

(7)as to (i) any proceeds of an Excluded Disposition, (ii) Trust Monies disbursed pursuant to Section 4.10 and (iii) any Declined Excess Proceeds; and

(8)as provided in Section 4.12.

(c)If the Company desires written evidence of any release pursuant to Section 11.07(a) or (b), the Company will furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent:

(1)an Officers’ Certificate requesting such written evidence of release and certifying that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture and the Collateral Documents to the Collateral Agent’s execution and delivery of such written evidence of release have been complied with; and

(2)a form of such written evidence of release.

(d)Upon compliance by the Company with the conditions precedent set forth in Section 11.07(c), the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall promptly cause to be delivered to the Company written evidence of such release, which, at the election of the Company, may include customary language to the effect that such former Collateral has been automatically released pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and reconveyed to the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be.  The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall take all other actions reasonably requested by the Company or any Guarantor in connection with any release of Collateral pursuant to this Indenture.

(e)The Company shall bear and pay all costs and expenses associated with any release of Notes Liens pursuant to this Section 11.07, including all reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys or representatives acting for the Trustee or for the Collateral Agent.

SECTION 11.08.  Replacement of Terminated Leases.

If, other than in connection with an Asset Sale (or a disposition excluded from the term “Asset Sale” pursuant to the definition thereof (other than clause (iv) of the definition thereof)), a leasehold interest constituting Collateral is terminated or otherwise ceases to be in full force and effect prior to the conclusion of its stated term as in effect on the Issue Date (a “Lease Termination”), the Company or a Guarantor shall within 30 days after such Lease Termination or as soon as practicable thereafter using commercially reasonable efforts mortgage Unencumbered Assets (“Replacement Collateral”) as Collateral under the Security Documents (and in connection with any such mortgages or deeds of trust, deliver those documents listed in Section 11.06) with the Lien on such Collateral securing the notes such that the Collateral Value Ratio after giving pro forma effect to the pledge of such Replacement Collateral is equal to or greater than the lesser of (i) the Collateral Value Ratio on the Issue Date and (ii) the Collateral Value Ratio immediately prior to such Lease Termination and any other Lease Termination for which sufficient Replacement Collateral has not yet been pledged.

99

SECTION 11.09.  Filing, Recording, Certificates and Opinions.

Any release of Collateral permitted by Section 11.07 hereof or the Security Documents will be deemed not to impair the Notes Liens under this Indenture and the Security Documents in contravention thereof and any Person that is required to deliver a certificate or opinion under this Indenture or the Security Documents shall be entitled to rely upon the foregoing as a basis for delivery of such certificate or opinion.  The Trustee may, to the extent permitted by Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 hereof, accept as conclusive evidence of compliance with the foregoing provisions the appropriate statements contained in such documents and opinion.

SECTION 11.10.  Use of Trust Monies.

All Trust Monies representing proceeds of Collateral (other than proceeds of an Excluded Disposition and proceeds constituting Declined Excess Proceeds) shall be held by the Collateral Agent in the Collateral Account as a part of the Collateral securing the notes and, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, may, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Security Documents, at the written direction of the Company be applied by the Collateral Agent from time to time to (a) the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any notes, or to the purchase of notes upon tender or in the open market or otherwise, or (b) for any reinvestment permitted by clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 4.10(b), in each case in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including Section 4.10. The Collateral Account shall be established and maintained by the Collateral Agent at the office of the Collateral Agent or as a deposit account or securities account subject to a control agreement in favor of the Collateral Agent.

ARTICLE 12.
SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

SECTION 12.01.  Guarantee.

Subject to this Article 12, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:  (a) the principal of, premium, if any, interest, if any, on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium, and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.  Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately.  Each Guarantor agrees that this Subsidiary Guarantee is a general unsecured obligation of such Guarantor and it is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

Subject to this Article 12, the Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the

100

same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.  Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives all statutory suretyship defenses that it may waive under applicable law, including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 2856.

Each Guarantor also agrees to pay, in addition to the amount stated above, any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 12.01.

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by the Company or a Guarantor either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

Each Guarantor agrees that it shall 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 Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee.  The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this Subsidiary Guarantee.

Each Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company or any Guarantor for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company or any Guarantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s or any other Guarantor’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Subsidiary Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made.  In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

In case any provision of any Subsidiary Guarantee 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.

The Subsidiary Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be a general unsecured senior obligation of such Guarantor and shall be pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Debt of such Guarantor, if any.

101

Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

SECTION 12.02.  Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to such maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 12, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

SECTION 12.03.  Execution and Delivery.

To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer of such Guarantor.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee on the Notes.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

SECTION 12.05.  No Waiver.

Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 12 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 12 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

102

SECTION 12.06.  Right of Contribution.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 12.07.

If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations under this Indenture shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Obligations under this Indenture.

SECTION 12.08.  Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc., on Certain Terms.

Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor.  Without limitation of the foregoing, the consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into another Person, or the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of a Guarantor, taken as a whole, are subject to Section 5.01(d).

SECTION 12.09.  Releases of Subsidiary Guarantee.

103

1.  Principal. Cinemark USA, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”) promises to pay the principal of this Note on May 1, 2025; provided, however, that if (i) on September 13, 2022, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Company’s 5.125% senior notes due 2022 that shall not have been purchased, repurchased, redeemed, defeased or otherwise acquired, retired, cancelled or discharged exceeds $50.0 million, the notes will mature on September 14, 2022 and (ii) on February 27, 2023, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Company’s 4.875% senior notes due 2023 that shall not have been purchased, repurchased, redeemed, defeased or otherwise acquired, retired, cancelled or discharged exceeds $50.0 million, the notes will mature on February 28, 2023.

2.  Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 8.750% per annum. Interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 8.750% per annum and the Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing [●] 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 shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from [●]. 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 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, if any, (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

3.  Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest), if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the April 15 or October 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date (each, a “Record Date”), even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture. The Notes shall be payable as to principal or premium, if any, or interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within the City and State of New York (which may be an office of the Paying Agent), or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Company or the Paying Agent prior to the applicable Record Date. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

4.  Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., the Trustee and the Collateral Agent under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

5.  Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of April 20, 2020 (as such may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the

A-5

Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are obligations of the Company initially in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000,000.  Subject to compliance with Section 2.13, Section 4.09 and Section 4.12 of the Indenture, the Company is permitted to issue Additional Notes under the Indenture in an unlimited principal amount.  Any such Additional Notes that are actually issued shall be treated as issued and outstanding Notes (and of the same class as the Initial Notes) for all purposes of the Indenture, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. The Notes are Guaranteed by certain Subsidiaries of the Company pursuant to the Indenture.

6.  Optional Redemption.

Except as described below, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to May 1, 2022.

(a)At any time prior to May 1, 2022, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture (including any Additional Notes) at a redemption price of 108.750% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, with funds in an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by the Company, provided that: (i) at least 60% of the principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture (including any Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries); and (ii) the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

(b)On and after May 1, 2022, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on May 1 of the years indicated below:

(c)At any time and from time to time prior to May 1, 2022, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or a portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium with respect to the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the redemption date. Notice of redemption need not set forth the Applicable Premium but only the manner of calculation of the redemption price. The Indenture provides that, with respect to any such redemption, the Company will notify the Trustee of the Applicable Premium with respect to the Notes promptly after the calculation and that the Trustee will not be responsible for such calculation.

(d)Notice of any redemption or purchase of the notes (including upon an Equity Offering or debt incurrence or in connection with a transaction (or series of related transactions) that constitute a Change of Control) may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion of such transaction and may be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering, debt incurrence or Change of Control. In addition, if such

A-6

redemption or purchase is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption or purchase date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption or purchase date, or by the redemption or purchase date so delayed. In addition, the Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption or purchase price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption or purchase may be performed by another Person.

(e)The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

7.  Repurchase at Option of Holder.

If a Change of Control occurs, the Company shall be required to make an offer to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the terms set forth in the Indenture (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall send a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.  

In connection with certain Asset Sales, the Company may be required to offer to purchase Notes as provided in Section 4.10 of the Indenture.

8.  Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be sent (or provided in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent (or provided in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 aggregate principal amount may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.

9.  Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a Record Date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

10.  Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

11.  Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The provisions governing amendment, supplement and waiver of any provision of the Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees are set forth in Article 9 of the Indenture.

A-7

12.  Defaults and Remedies. The Events of Default relating to the Notes are set forth in Section 6.01 of the Indenture.

13.  Trustee Dealings with Company. Subject to Article 7 of the Indenture, the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

14.  No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the Notes, the Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

15.  Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent.

16.  Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Note Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

17.  CUSIP, ISIN or Other Similar Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.
