Subsidiary Guarantee, the Indenture or such other Indebtedness such other Subsidiary shall not incur any other material<br />

liabilities.<br />

(d) The Issuer shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to engage in any business other than a Similar Business.<br />

Limitation on Layering<br />

No Subsidiary Guarantor will Incur any Indebtedness if such Indebtedness is expressly subordinate in right of payment<br />

to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantor Senior Indebtedness unless such Indebtedness is pari passu in right of<br />

payment with or is subordinate in right of payment to the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor or is permitted<br />

to be incurred under clause (5) of the second paragraph of the covenant described under “—Certain Covenants—Limitation<br />

on Indebtedness”. A Subsidiary Guarantor may not Incur any secured Indebtedness that is not Subsidiary Guarantor Senior<br />

Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor (except to the extent such Indebtedness is secured only by a Lien arising solely by<br />

operation of applicable law) unless contemporaneously therewith effective provision is made to secure the Subsidiary<br />

Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor equally and ratably with (or on a senior basis to, in the case of Indebtedness<br />

subordinated in right of payment to such Subsidiary Guarantee) such secured Indebtedness for as long as such secured<br />

Indebtedness is secured by a Lien. In addition, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall Guarantee, directly or indirectly, any<br />

Indebtedness of the Issuer that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer unless<br />

such Guarantee is expressly subordinate in right of payment to, or ranks pari passu with, the Subsidiary Guarantee of such<br />

Guarantor.<br />

Suspension of Covenants on Achievement of Investment Grade Status<br />

If on any date following the Issue Date, the Notes have achieved an Investment Grade Rating and no Default or Event<br />

of Default has occurred and is continuing (a “Suspension Event”), then, beginning on that day and continuing until such time,<br />

if any, at which the Notes cease to have an Investment Grade Rating, the provisions of the Indenture summarized under the<br />

following captions will not apply to the Notes: “—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Restricted Payments,” “—Limitation<br />

on Indebtedness,” “—Limitation on Liens,” “—Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries,”<br />

“—Limitation on Affiliate Transactions,” “—Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary <strong>Stock</strong>,” “—Limitation on Lines of<br />

Business,” and under “—Change of Control Triggering Event,” the provisions of clause (3) of the first paragraph of the<br />

covenant described under “—Certain Covenants—Merger and Consolidation” and any related default provisions of the<br />

Indenture will cease to be effective and will not be applicable to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Such covenants<br />

and any related default provisions will again apply according to their terms from the first day on which a Suspension Event<br />

ceases to be in effect. Such covenants will not, however, be of any effect with regard to actions of the Issuer properly taken<br />

during the continuance of the Suspension Event, and the “—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Restricted Payments”<br />

covenant will be interpreted as if it had been in effect since the date of the Indenture except that no default will be deemed to<br />

have occurred solely by reason of a Restricted Payment made while that covenant was suspended.<br />

Payments for Consent<br />

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any<br />

consideration to or for the benefit of any holder or Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any<br />

of the terms or provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all<br />

Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating<br />

to such consent, waiver or agreement.<br />

Impairment of Security Interest<br />

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, take or omit to take any action that would have<br />

the result of materially impairing the Security Interest with respect to the Collateral (it being understood, subject to the<br />

proviso below, that the Incurrence of Permitted Collateral Liens shall under no circumstances be deemed to materially impair<br />

the Security Interest with respect to the Collateral) for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, and the Issuer shall not, and<br />

shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, grant to any Person other than the Security Trustee, for the benefit of the<br />

Trustee and the Holders and the other beneficiaries described in the Security Documents, any interest whatsoever in any of<br />

the Collateral, except that the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur Permitted Collateral Liens and the Collateral<br />

may be discharged and released in accordance with the Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor<br />

Agreement; provided, however, that, except with respect to any discharge or release of Collateral in accordance with the<br />

Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement or in connection with the Incurrence of<br />

Liens for the benefit of the Trustee and Holders of Notes or otherwise as described in the second to last paragraph under<br />

“Description of Other Indebtedness—Intercreditor Agreement—Release of the Security and the Subsidiary Guarantees”, no<br />

Security Document may be amended, extended, renewed, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified or replaced, unless<br />
