SECTION 3.Registered Exchange Offers.

(a) Unless the Exchange Offers shall not be permissible under applicable law or Commission policy (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a) hereof have been complied with), the Issuer and the Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause to be filed with the Commission an Exchange Offer Registration Statement under the Securities Act relating to the Exchange Securities and the Exchange Offers, (ii) cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective, (iii) in connection with the foregoing, file (A) allpre-effective amendments to such Exchange Offer Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective, (B) if applicable, a post-effective amendment to such Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act and (C) cause all necessary filings in connection with the registration and qualification of the Exchange Securities to be made under the state securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as are necessary to permit Consummation of the Exchange Offers, and (iv) upon the effectiveness of such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, commence the Exchange Offers. The Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall be on the appropriate form permitting registration of the Exchange Securities to be offered in exchange for the Transfer Restricted Securities and to permit resales of Initial Securities held by Broker-Dealers as contemplated by Section 3(c) hereof.

(b) The Issuer and the Guarantors shall cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be effective continuously and shall keep the Exchange Offers open for a period of not less than the minimum period required under applicable federal and state securities laws to Consummate the Exchange Offers;provided, however, that in no event shall such period be less than 20 business days after the date notice of such Exchange Offers is delivered to the Holders (each

-4-

such date, an “Exchange Date”). The Issuer shall cause the Exchange Offers to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws. No securities other than the Exchange Securities shall be included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. The Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offers to be Consummated no later than 60 days after the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has become effective, and in no event later than the date that is five years after the Closing Date (or if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day).

(c) The Issuer shall indicate in a “Plan of Distribution” section contained in the Prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement that any Broker-Dealer who holds Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities and that were acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than Transfer Restricted Securities acquired directly from the Issuer), may exchange such Initial Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offers; however, such Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must, therefore, deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resales of the Exchange Securities received by such Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offers, which prospectus delivery requirement may be satisfied by the delivery by such Broker-Dealer of the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. Such “Plan of Distribution” section shall also contain all other information with respect to such resales by Broker-Dealers that the Commission may require in order to permit such resales pursuant thereto, but such “Plan of Distribution” shall not name any such Broker-Dealer or disclose the amount of Initial Securities held by any such Broker-Dealer except to the extent required by the Commission as a result of a change in policy after the date of this Agreement.

The Issuer and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions of Section 6(c) hereof to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for resales of Initial Securities acquired by Broker-Dealers for their own accounts as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, and to ensure that it conforms with the requirements of this Agreement, the Securities Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a period ending on the earlier of (i) 180 daysfrom the date on which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective and (ii) the date on which a Broker-Dealer is no longer required to deliver a prospectus in connection with market-making or other trading activities.

The Issuer shall provide sufficient copies of the latest version of such Prospectus contained in such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to Broker-Dealers promptly upon request at any time during such180-day (or shorter as provided in the foregoing sentence) period in order to facilitate such resales.

SECTION 4.Shelf Registration.

(a)Shelf Registration.In the event that (i) the Issuer determines that the Exchange Offers provided for in Section 3 hereof are not available or the Exchange Offers for Transfer Restricted Securities may not be completed as soon as practicable after the last Exchange Date with respect to

-5-

the Exchange Offers because they would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the Commission staff, (ii) such Exchange Offers are not for any other reason completed by the date that is five years after the Closing Date (or if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) or (iii) prior to the last Exchange Date with respect to the Exchange Offers, the Issuer receives a written request (a “Shelf Request”) from any Initial Purchaser representing that it holds Transfer Restricted Securities that are or were ineligible to be exchanged in such Exchange Offers, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be filed with the Commission, as soon as practicable, but in any event within 30 days, after such determination date or the receipt of a Shelf Request, as the case may be (the “Shelf Filing Deadline”), a Shelf Registration Statement providing for the sale of all the Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof and to have such Shelf Registration Statement become effective on or before the 90^th day after the Shelf Filing Deadline (or if such 90^th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day);provided, that (a) no Holder will be entitled to have any Transfer Restricted Securities included in any Shelf Registration Statement, or entitled to use the Prospectus forming a part of such Shelf Registration Statement, until such Holder shall have provided such other information regarding such Holder to the Issuer as is contemplated by Section 4(b) hereof and, if necessary, the Shelf Registration Statement has been amended to reflect such information, and (b) the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be under no obligation to file any such Shelf Registration Statement before they are obligated to Consummate the Exchange Offers pursuant to Section 3 hereof.

In the event that the Issuer and the Guarantors are required to cause to be filed with the Commission a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be filed with the Commission and have become effective both an Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3 hereof with respect to all Transfer Restricted Securities and a Shelf Registration Statement (which may be a combined Registration Statement with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) with respect to offers and sales of Transfer Restricted Securities held by the Initial Purchasers after completion of the Exchange Offers.

The Issuer and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective until the date on which the Initial Securities covered thereby cease to be Transfer Restricted Securities (the “Shelf Effectiveness Period”). The Issuer and the Guarantors further agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement, the related Prospectus and any Free Writing Prospectus if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Issuer and the Guarantors for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act or by any other rules and regulations thereunder or if reasonably requested by a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities with respect to information relating to such Holder, and to use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such amendment to become effective, if required, and such Shelf Registration Statement, Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus, as the case may be, to become usable as soon as thereafter practicable. The Issuer and the Guarantors agree to furnish to the Holders copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after it has been used or filed with the Commission, as reasonably requested by the Holders.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time, the Issuer may delay the filing of any Shelf Registration Statement or delay or suspend the effectiveness thereof,

-6-

for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of 30 consecutive days or more than on two occasions during any12-month period, but in any event not more than 90 days in the aggregate (whether or not consecutive) in any12-month period (each, a “Shelf Suspension Period”), if the Board of Directors of the Issuer determines reasonably and in good faith that the filing of any such Shelf Registration Statement or the continuing effectiveness thereof would require the disclosure ofnon-public material information that, in the reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, would be detrimental to the Issuer if so disclosed or would otherwise materially adversely affect a financing, acquisition, disposition, merger or other material transaction or such action is required by applicable law. Any Shelf Suspension Period pursuant to this Section 4(a) shall begin on the date specified in a written notice given by the Issuer to the Holders and shall end on the date specified in a subsequent written notice given by the Issuer to the Holders.

(b)Provision by Holders of Certain Information in Connection with the Shelf Registration Statement.No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such Holder furnishes to the Issuer in writing, within 15 Business Days after receipt of a request therefor, such information as the Issuer may reasonably request for use in connection with any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus included therein. Each Holder as to which any Shelf Registration Statement is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Issuer all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Issuer by such Holder not materially misleading.

SECTION 5.Additional Interest.If (i) the Exchange Offers have not been Consummated on or prior to the date that is five years after the Closing Date (or if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) or, if a Shelf Registration Statement is required hereunder, a Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with this Agreement has not been declared effective on or prior to such date or (ii) any Registration Statement required by this Agreement is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective or fail to be usable for its intended purpose during the Effectiveness Period (except as specifically permitted herein, including with respect to any Shelf Suspension Period as provided in Section 4(a) hereof or because of the sale of all Transfer Restricted Securities under such Registration Statement) without being succeeded immediately by a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that cures such failure and that is itself immediately declared effective (each such event referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Registration Default”), the Issuer hereby agrees that the interest rate borne by the Transfer Restricted Securities shall be increased by 0.250% per annum during the90-day period immediately following the occurrence of any Registration Default and shall increase by 0.250% per annum at the end of each subsequent90-day period, but in no event shall such increase exceed 1.000% per annum. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults relating to any particular Transfer Restricted Securities, the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer Restricted Securities will be reduced to the original interest rate borne by such Transfer Restricted Securities;provided, however, that, if after any such reduction in interest rate, a different Registration Default occurs, the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer Restricted Securities shall again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provisions. A Registration Default ends with respect to any Initial Securities when such Initial Securities cease to be Transfer Restricted Securities.

Each Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that any Broker-Dealer and any such Holder using the Exchange Offers to participate in a distribution of the securities to be acquired in the Exchange Offers (1) could not under Commission policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement rely on the position of the Commission enunciated inMorgan Stanley and Co., Inc.

(i) use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective and provide all requisite financial statements (including, if required by the Securities Act or any regulation thereunder, financial statements of the Guarantors for the period specified in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as applicable); upon the occurrence of any event that would cause any such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein (A) to contain a material misstatement or omission or (B) not to be effective and usable for resale of Transfer Restricted Securities during the period required by this Agreement, the Issuer shall file promptly an appropriate amendment to such Registration Statement, in the case of clause (A), correcting any such misstatement or omission, and, in the case of either clause (A) or (B), use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment to be declared effective and such Registration Statement and the related Prospectus to become usable for their intended purpose(s) as soon as practicable thereafter;

If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities under state securities or blue sky laws, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time;

(xv) if any fact or event contemplated by Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof shall exist or have occurred, prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading;

(xvi) provide a CUSIP number for all Exchange Securities not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement covering such Initial Securities and provide the Trustee under the Indenture with printed certificates for such Exchange Securities which are in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company and take all other action necessary to ensure that all such Exchange Securities are eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company;

(xix) cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement required by this Agreement, and, in connection therewith, cooperate with the Trustee and the Holders of Securities to effect such changes to the Indenture as may be required for such Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the Trust Indenture Act; and to execute and use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents that may be required to effect such changes and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the Commission to enable such Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner;and

-13-

(xx) provide promptly to each Holder upon request each document filed with the Commission pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 and Section 15 of the Exchange Act if not available via EDGAR.

Each Holder agrees by acquisition of a Transfer Restricted Security that, upon receipt of any notice from the Issuer of the existence of any fact of the kind described in Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(xv) hereof, or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Issuer that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus. If so directed by the Issuer, each Holder will deliver to the Issuer (at the Issuer’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Securities that was current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Issuer shall give any such notice, the time period regarding the effectiveness of such Registration Statement set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as applicable, shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof to and including the date when each selling Holder covered by such Registration Statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(xv) hereof or shall have received the Advice;provided, however, that no such extension shall be taken into account in determining whether Additional Interest is due pursuant to Section 5 hereof or the amount of such Additional Interest, it being agreed that the Issuer’s option to suspend use of a Registration Statement pursuant to this paragraph shall be treated as a Registration Default for purposes of Section 5 hereof.

SECTION 7.Registration Expenses.

(a) All expenses incident to the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ performance of or compliance with this Agreement will be borne by the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, regardless of whether a Registration Statement becomes effective, including, without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees and expenses (including filings made by any Initial Purchaser or Holder with the FINRA (and, if applicable, the fees and expenses of any “qualified independent underwriter” and its counsel that may be required by the rules and regulations of the FINRA)); (ii) all fees and expenses of compliance with federal securities and state securities or blue sky laws; (iii) all expenses of printing (including printing certificates for the Exchange Securities to be issued in the Exchange Offers and printing of Prospectuses), messenger and delivery services and telephone; (iv) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Issuer, the Guarantors and, subject to Section 7(b) hereof, the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities; (v) all fees and expenses of the Trustee and any exchange agent and their counsel; (vi) all application and filing fees in connection with listing the Exchange Securities on a securities exchange or automated quotation system pursuant to the requirements thereof; and (vii) all fees and disbursements of independent certified public accountants of the Issuer and the Guarantors (including the expenses of any special audit and comfort letters required by or incident to such performance).

-14-

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors will, in any event, bear its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses of any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special experts, retained by the Issuer or the Guarantors.

(b) In connection with any Shelf Registration Statement required by this Agreement, the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will reimburse the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities being registered pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement for the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of not more than one counsel, who shall be Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP or such other counsel as may be chosen by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities for whose benefit such Shelf Registration Statement is being prepared.

SECTION 8.Indemnification.

(a) The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Holder and (ii) each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any Holder (any of the Persons referred to in this clause (ii) being hereinafter referred to as a “controlling person”) and (iii) the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of any Holder or any controlling person (any Person referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) may hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnified Holder”), to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions and expenses (including, without limitation, and as incurred, reimbursement of all reasonable costs of investigating, preparing, pursuing, settling, compromising, paying or defending any claim or action, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, including the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to any Indemnified Holder), joint or several, directly or indirectly caused by, related to, based upon, arising out of or in connection with (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that is made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any of the Holders furnished in writing to the Issuer by any of the Holders expressly for use therein. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability which any of the Issuer or the Guarantors may otherwise have.

-15-

In case any action or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation or proceeding) shall be brought or asserted against any of the Indemnified Holders with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Issuer or the Guarantors, such Indemnified Holder (or the Indemnified Holder controlled by such controlling person) shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Guarantors in writing;provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve any of the Issuer or the Guarantors of their obligations pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent that they have been prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the Issuer or the Guarantors from any liability which they may have to any Indemnified Holder other than under this Agreement. The Issuer and the Guarantors shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that they shall elect, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the Indemnified Holder promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such Indemnified Holder, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Holder. If the Issuer or the Guarantors do not elect to so assume the defense thereof within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, the Indemnified Holders shall have the right to employ one counsel of its own in any such action and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid, as incurred, by the Issuer and the Guarantors. The Issuer and the Guarantors shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) at any time for such Indemnified Holders, which firm shall be designated by the Issuer and the Guarantors and be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Holders. The Issuer and the Guarantors shall be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected with the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ prior written consent, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably, and each of the Issuer and the Guarantors agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified Holder from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of any settlement of any action effected with the written consent of the Issuer and the Guarantors. The Issuer and the Guarantors shall not, without the prior written consent of each Indemnified Holder, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action, claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Holder is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Holder from all liability arising out of such action, claim, litigation or proceeding.

(b) Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, the Guarantors and their respective directors, officers who sign a Registration Statement, and any Person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any of the Issuer or the Guarantors, and the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of each such Person, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuer and the Guarantors to each of the Indemnified Holders, but only with respect to claims and actions based on information relating to such Holder furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement. In case any action or proceeding shall be brought against the Issuer, the Guarantors

-16-

or their respective directors or officers or any such controlling person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, such Holder shall have the rights and duties given the Issuer and the Guarantors, and the Issuer, the Guarantors, their respective directors and officers and such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to each Holder by the preceding paragraph.

(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or (b) hereof (other than by reason of exceptions provided in those Sections) in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions or expenses referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, from the Initial Placement (which in the case of the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be deemed to be equal to the total gross proceeds to the Issuer and the Guarantors from the Initial Placement), the amount of Additional Interest which did not become payable as a result of the filing of the Registration Statement resulting in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments actions or expenses, and such Registration Statement, or if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, the relative fault of the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Indemnified Holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer or the Guarantors, on the one hand, or the Indemnified Holders, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in the second paragraph of Section 8(a) hereof, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.

The Issuer, the Guarantors and each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(c) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, none of the Holders (and its related Indemnified Holders) shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discount received by such Holder with respect to the Initial Securities or Exchange Securities sold by such Holder exceeds the amount of any damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of

-17-

fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(c) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Initial Securities held by each of the Holders hereunder and not joint.

SECTION 9.Rule 144A.Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby agrees with each Holder, for so long as any Transfer Restricted Securities remain outstanding (unless the Issuer and the Guarantors are subject to and comply with Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or file the periodic reports contemplated by such provisions pursuant to the Indenture), to make available to any Holder or beneficial owner of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Transfer Restricted Securities from such Holder or beneficial owner, the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

SECTION 10. Termination of Guarantor Obligations

If at any time a Guarantor under this Agreement is released and discharged from its Guarantee pursuant to the Indenture, such Guarantor’s obligations under this Agreement shall automatically and unconditionally terminate.

SECTION 11.Miscellaneous.

(a)Remedies.Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agree to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(b)No Inconsistent Agreements.None of the Issuer and the Guarantors will, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to their securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. None of the Issuer or the Guarantors has previously entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to the Initial Securities to any Person. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of any of the Issuer’s or the Guarantors’ securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof.

(c)Adjustments Affecting the Initial Securities.The Issuer will not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to the Initial Securities that would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Holders to Consummate any Exchange Offers.

(d)Amendments and Waivers.The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Issuer has (i) in the case of Section 5 hereof and this Section 11(d)(i), obtained the written consent of Holders of all outstanding Transfer Restricted

-18-

Securities and (ii) in the case of all other provisions hereof, obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities (excluding any Transfer Restricted Securities held by the Issuer or its affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to departure from the provisions hereof that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose securities are being tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offers and that does not affect directly or indirectly the rights of other Holders whose securities are not being tendered pursuant to such Exchange Offers may be given by the Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities being tendered or registered;provided, however, that, with respect to any matter that directly or indirectly affects the rights of any Initial Purchaser hereunder, the Issuer shall obtain the written consent of each such Initial Purchaser with respect to which such amendment, qualification, supplement, waiver, consent or departure is to be effective.

(e)Notices.All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), telex, telecopier, or air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery:

(i)Governing Law.THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(i)Consent to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Related Proceedings”) may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City and County of New York (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction (except for suits, actions, or proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any Specified Court in a Related Proceeding, a “Related Judgment”, as to which such jurisdiction isnon-exclusive) of the Specified Courts in any Related Proceeding. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail to such party’s address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court.

If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than U.S. dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Holders could purchase U.S. dollars with such other currency in The City of New York on the business day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors in respect of any sum due from them to any Holder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any currency other than U.S. dollars, not be discharged until the first business day, following receipt by such Holder of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. dollars with such other currency; if the U.S. dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Holder hereunder, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Holder against such loss. If the U.S. dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Holder hereunder, such Holder agrees to pay to the Issuer and the Guarantors (but without duplication) an amount equal to the excess of the U.S. dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Holder hereunder.
