Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2003 and 2002

(Amounts in millions of dollars, except per share data)

(Unaudited)

(1) Basis of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sealed Air Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2003 and the condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 have been made. The results set forth in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All amounts are approximate due to rounding.

The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by GAAP (accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America) can be condensed or omitted.

The Company is responsible for the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this document. As these are condensed financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(3) Accounts Receivable Securitization

The Company has an accounts receivable securitization program (the “Receivables Facility”) with a bank (the “Bank”) and an issuer of commercial paper administered by the Bank (the “ICP”). Under the Receivables Facility, the Company’s two primary operating subsidiaries, Cryovac, Inc. and Sealed Air Corporation (US) (the “Originators”), sell all of their eligible U.S. accounts receivable to Sealed Air Funding Corporation (“SA Funding Corp.”), an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary that the Company formed for the sole purpose of entering into the Receivables Facility. SA Funding Corp. in turn may sell undivided ownership interests in these receivables (“Receivables Interests”) to the Bank and the ICP, subject to certain conditions, up to a maximum of $125.0 million of Receivables Interests outstanding from time to time.

The Bank has extended its commitment to make purchases of Receivables Interests from SA Funding Corp. to January 26, 2004. The scheduled expiration date for the Receivables Facility is December 7, 2004. No Receivables Interests were sold under this Facility during the first six months of 2003.

The Receivables Facility was amended on April 2, 2003 to provide that SA Funding Corp. may sell Receivables Interests aggregating up to $60.0 million, originated only by Sealed Air Corporation (US), to the Bank or the ICP until a definitive asbestos settlement agreement (see Note 10), satisfactory to the Bank, has been entered into. Once a satisfactory asbestos settlement agreement has been executed, the Company expects that this Facility will again become available for the sale of Receivables Interests originated by Cryovac, Inc. as well as Sealed Air Corporation (US) up to the maximum of $125.0 million of Receivables Interests provided for by the Receivables Facility.

The Receivables Facility was also amended on April 2, 2003 to exclude the charge for the asbestos litigation settlement that was reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2002 from the calculation of the interest coverage and leverage ratios provided for in the Receivables Facility. The Company was in compliance with these ratios at June 30, 2003.

(4) Inventories

At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the components of inventories by major classification were as follows:

	June 30, 2003			December 31, 2002
Raw materials	$	87.2		$	76.9
Work in process	86.8			71.3
Finished goods	228.7			198.4
Subtotal	402.7			346.6
Reduction of certain inventories to LIFO basis	(21.1		)	(17.2		)
Total	$	381.6		$	329.4

(5) Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rates were 36.0% and 40.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 36.5% and 41.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Such rates were higher than the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes.

(6) Restructuring and Other Charges

2001 Restructuring Program

The Company’s restructuring liability, which arose out of a restructuring undertaken during 2001, amounted to $2.0 million at June 30, 2003 and $6.6 million at December 31, 2002. The components of the restructuring charges, spending and other activity through June 30, 2003 and the remaining liability balance at June 30, 2003 were as follows:

	Employee Termination Costs			Plant/Office Exit Costs			Total Costs
Restructuring liability at December 31, 2002	$	5.9		$	0.7		$	6.6
Cash payments during 2003	(4.4		)	(0.2		)	(4.6		)
Restructuring liability at June 30, 2003	$	1.5		$	0.5		$	2.0

The cash outlays during the six months ended June 30, 2003 included primarily severance and other personnel-related costs as well as lease and other contractual arrangement termination costs. The 2001 restructuring program was substantially completed at December 31, 2002. As of June 30, 2003, 676 positions had been eliminated out of the 677 positions estimated to be eliminated under this program. The remaining cash outlays as of June 30, 2003 are primarily for severance-related costs that are expected to be paid in the remainder of 2003 and in future years.

(7) Debt

The Company allowed its $525.0 million principal revolving credit facility to expire in accordance with its terms on March 30, 2003. Such facility had not been replaced as of June 30, 2003.

On April 14, 2003, the Company issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.375% senior notes due April 2008 (the “5.375% Senior Notes”) in transactions exempt from registration under Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Accrued interest on these senior notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing on October 15, 2003. The net proceeds from the issuance of these senior notes after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount, unamortized bond discount and other offering expenses were $296.0 million. The carrying value of these notes at June 30, 2003 was $297.7 million, net of unamortized discount and an adjustment to record a decrease in the fair value of the 5.375% Senior Notes due to changes in interest rates of $0.8 million related to certain interest rate swaps the Company has entered into with respect to these notes (see Note 8).

In July 2003, the Company issued a total of $1,281.25 million of senior notes in transactions that were exempt from registration under Rule 144A and other available exemptions under the Securities Act. This debt is not included in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2003. On July 18, 2003, the net proceeds from these offerings and additional cash on hand were used to redeem the Company’s Series A convertible preferred stock at the redemption price of $51.00 per share for which the Company used $1,298.1 million of cash plus an amount equal to dividends accrued from July 1, 2003 through July 17, 2003 for which the Company used $2.4 million of cash. The offerings included the following:

• $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior notes due July 15, 2013 (the “5.625% Senior Notes”). Accrued interest on the 5.625% Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on January 15, 2004. The net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and unamortized bond discount but before other offering expenses, were $396.1 million.

• $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior notes due July 15, 2033 (the “6.875% Senior Notes”). Accrued interest on the 6.875% Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on January 15, 2004. The net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and unamortized bond discount but before other offering expenses, were $444.5 million.

• $431.25 million aggregate principal amount of 3% convertible senior notes due June 30, 2033 (the “3% Convertible Senior Notes”), after giving effect to the initial purchasers’ exercise of an option on July 16, 2003 to purchase additional 3% Convertible Senior Notes. Accrued interest on the 3% Convertible Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 30 of each year, commencing on December 30, 2003. The net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount but before other offering expenses were, $422.1 million.

Holders of the 3% Convertible Senior Notes may convert those notes into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of 14.2857 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes (which is equal to a conversion price of $70.00 per share), subject to anti-dilution adjustments in certain circumstances (the “Conversion Rate”), before the close of business on June 30, 2033 only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2003, if the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock exceeds 120% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding calendar quarter; (2) during any period in which (i) the long-term credit rating assigned to the notes by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of the McGraw-Hill Companies (“Standard and Poor’s”) or Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) is lower than BB+ or Ba2, respectively, (ii) either Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s no longer rates the notes or has withdrawn or suspended such rating, or (iii) the notes are not assigned a rating by both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s; (3) during the five business day period immediately after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each day of that period was less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock and the Conversion Rate; (4) if the notes have been called for redemption; or (5) upon the occurrence of certain corporate events.

The Company has the option to redeem the 3% Convertible Senior Notes beginning July 2, 2007 at a price equal to 101.286% of their aggregate principal amount declining ratably to 100% of their aggregate principal amount on June 30, 2010.

The holders of the 3% Convertible Senior Notes have the option to require the Company to repurchase the 3% Convertible Senior Notes on June 30 of 2010, 2013, 2018, 2023 and 2028 or upon the occurrence of a fundamental change in or a termination of trading of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

In connection with the issuance of the 3% Convertible Senior Notes, the Company agreed with the initial purchasers of such notes to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on or before October 29, 2003, covering resale of the 6,160,708 shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of such notes.

Each issue of the Company’s outstanding senior notes and the Company’s outstanding Euro Notes impose certain limitations on the Company’s operations and those of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, including limitations on liens, sale and leaseback transactions and certain acquisitions and dispositions. The Company was in compliance with these limitations at June 30, 2003.

The amount outstanding at June 30, 2003 under the Company’s Australian dollar 175.0 million (U.S. $116.3 million at June 30, 2003) dual-currency revolving credit facility that expires on March 12, 2005 (the “ANZ Facility”) was U.S. $48.5 million. The ANZ Facility imposes certain limitations on the operations of certain of the Company’s Australian and New Zealand subsidiaries under that Facility, and such subsidiaries were in compliance with these limitations at June 30, 2003.

At June 30, 2003, the Company had available committed and uncommitted lines of credit of $329.6 million of which $239.8 million were unused. Such credit lines included amounts available under the ANZ Facility as well as other lines of credit available to various subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2003, the total available lines of credit included committed lines of credit of $117.1 million and uncommitted lines of credit of $212.5 million. The ANZ Facility is the Company’s principal committed line of credit. The Company is not subject to any material compensating balance requirements in connection with its lines of credit.

(8) Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts:

The Company is exposed to market risk, such as fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s subsidiaries have foreign currency exchange exposure from buying and selling in currencies other than their functional currencies. The primary purpose of the Company’s foreign currency hedging activities is to manage the potential changes in value associated with the amounts receivable or payable on transactions denominated in foreign currencies. At June 30, 2003, the Company was party to foreign currency forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $187.5 million maturing through November 2003. Such contracts qualified and were designated as cash flow hedges and had original maturities of less than twelve months.

Interest Rate Swaps:

From time to time, the Company may use interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. During the three months ended June 30, 2003, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $200.0 million that qualify and were designated as fair value hedges. The interest rate swaps were entered into in order to convert a portion of the 5.375% Senior Notes into floating rate debt. At June 30, 2003, the Company recorded an adjustment to long-term debt to record a decrease in the fair value of the 5.375% Senior Notes due to changes in interest rates of $0.8 million and an adjustment to other liabilities to record the fair value of the interest rate swap of $0.8 million.

U.S. Treasury Locks:

During the three months ended June 30, 2003, the Company entered into U.S. Treasury lock agreements with a total notional amount of $700.0 million that qualified and were designated as cash flow hedges. U.S. Treasury lock agreements are instruments used to manage the risks associated with the movements in U.S. Treasury rates. The Company entered into such agreements to manage interest rate risks arising from the planned issuance of the 5.375% Senior Notes in April 2003 and the planned issuance of the 5.625% Senior Notes and the 6.875% Senior Notes in July 2003 (see Note 7). The Company terminated these U.S. Treasury lock agreements prior to June 30, 2003 and received net cash proceeds of $13.9 million. Such amount has been reflected in other comprehensive income and is being amortized and reflected as a net reduction of interest expense over the life of the respective senior note issue. At June 30, 2003, the Company was not party to any of these types of contracts.

(9) Earnings Per Common Share

(1)	The basic earnings per common share calculations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 include $0.01, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 include $0.04, per share gains attributable to the repurchase of preferred stock.

(2)	In calculating diluted earnings per common share, the weighted average number of common shares for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2003 assumes the issuance of nine million shares of common stock reserved for the asbestos settlement (see Note 10), the exercise of dilutive stock options net of assumed treasury stock repurchases and the effect of the weighted average conversion of repurchased shares of preferred stock. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002, the weighted average number of common shares assumes the exercise of dilutive stock options net of assumed treasury stock repurchases, the effect of the weighted average conversion of repurchased shares of preferred stock and the effect of the assumed conversion of outstanding preferred stock.

(3)

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, net earnings ascribed to common shareholders have been adjusted to exclude the gains attributable to the repurchase of preferred stock and to add back dividends attributable to such repurchased preferred stock, and the weighted average common shares outstanding have been adjusted to assume conversion of the shares of preferred stock repurchased during such period in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Emerging Issues Task Force Topic D-53 guidance.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies

Asbestos Settlement and Related Costs

On November 27, 2002, the Company reached an agreement in principle with the appropriate parties to resolve all current and future asbestos-related claims made against the Company and its affiliates in connection with the Cryovac Transaction. The settlement will also resolve the fraudulent transfer claims, as well as indemnification claims by Fresenius, that had been made against the Company in connection with the Cryovac Transaction. On December 3, 2002, the agreement in principle was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company was advised that both of the Committees had approved the agreement in principle as of December 5, 2002. For a description of the Cryovac Transaction, asbestos-related claims and the parties involved, see “Cryovac Transaction” and “Contingencies Related to the Cryovac Transaction” below.

The Company recorded a charge of $850.1 million as a result of the asbestos settlement in its condensed consolidated statement of operations as of December 31, 2002, which consisted of the following items:

• a non-cash charge of $512.5 million covering a cash payment that the Company is required to make upon the effectiveness of a plan of reorganization in the bankruptcy of W. R. Grace & Co. (referred to below as “New Grace”). Because it is uncertain when such a plan of reorganization may become effective, this liability was recorded as a current liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2002. Under the terms of the settlement, this amount accrues interest at a 5.5% annual rate from December 21, 2002 to the date of payment. Such interest is included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

• a non-cash charge of $321.5 million representing the fair market value of 9 million shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to such settlement upon the effectiveness of New Grace’s plan of reorganization. Such shares are subject to customary anti-dilution provisions (including the effects of stock splits, stock dividends and certain other events affecting the Company’s common stock.) Such fair market value was $35.72 per common share as of the close of business on December 5, 2002. Such amount was recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2002 as follows: $0.9 million representing the aggregate par value of such shares has been recorded in common stock reserved for issuance related to the asbestos settlement and the remaining $320.6 million, representing the excess of the aggregate fair market value over the aggregate par value of such common shares, has been recorded in additional paid-in capital. The shares of common stock reserved for issuance related to the asbestos settlement are reflected in the June 30, 2003 diluted earnings per common share calculation.

• $16.1 million of legal and related fees as of December 31, 2002.

Other expense, net, included legal and related fees for asbestos-related matters for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 of $1.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 of $2.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

Cryovac Transaction

On March 31, 1998, the Company completed a multi-step transaction (the “Cryovac Transaction”), which brought the Cryovac packaging business and the former Sealed Air Corporation (“old Sealed Air”) under the common ownership of the Company. These businesses operate as subsidiaries of the Company, and the Company acts as a holding company. As part of that transaction, the Cryovac packaging business, held by various direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company, was separated from the remaining businesses of the Company. Such remaining businesses were then contributed to a company now known as W. R. Grace & Co. (“New Grace”), whose shares were distributed to the Company’s stockholders. As a result, New Grace became a separate publicly owned company. The Company recapitalized its outstanding shares of common stock into a new common stock and a new convertible preferred stock. A subsidiary of the Company then merged into old Sealed Air, which changed its name to Sealed Air Corporation (US). The agreements pursuant to which the Cryovac Transaction was carried out are referred to below as the “Transaction Agreements.”

Contingencies Related to the Cryovac Transaction

In connection with the Cryovac Transaction, New Grace and its subsidiaries retained all liabilities arising out of their operations before the Cryovac Transaction, whether accruing or occurring before or after the Cryovac Transaction, other than liabilities arising from or relating to Cryovac’s operations. The liabilities retained by New Grace include, among others, liabilities relating to asbestos-containing products previously manufactured or sold by New Grace’s subsidiaries prior to the Cryovac Transaction, including its primary U.S. operating subsidiary, W. R. Grace & Co. - Conn., which has operated for decades and has been a subsidiary of New Grace since the Cryovac Transaction. The Transaction Agreements provided that, should any claimant seek to hold the Company, including any of its subsidiaries, responsible for liabilities of New Grace or its subsidiaries, including such asbestos-related liabilities, New Grace and its subsidiaries would indemnify and defend the Company.

Since the beginning of 2000, the Company has been served with a number of lawsuits alleging that, as a result of the Cryovac Transaction, the Company is responsible for alleged asbestos liabilities of New Grace and its subsidiaries, certain of which were also named as co-defendants in some of these actions. These actions include several purported class actions and a number of personal injury lawsuits. Some plaintiffs seek damages for personal injury or wrongful death, while others seek medical monitoring, environmental remediation or remedies related to an attic insulation product. Neither old Sealed Air nor Cryovac ever produced or sold any of the asbestos-containing materials that are the subjects of these cases. None of these cases has been resolved through judgment, settlement or otherwise. All such cases have been stayed in connection with New Grace’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding discussed below.

While the allegations in these actions directed to the Company vary, these actions all appear to allege that the transfer of the Cryovac business as part of the Cryovac Transaction was a fraudulent transfer or gave rise to successor liability. Under a theory of successor liability, plaintiffs with claims against New Grace and its subsidiaries may attempt to hold the Company liable for liabilities that arose with respect to activities conducted prior to the Cryovac Transaction by W. R. Grace & Co. - Conn. or other New Grace subsidiaries. A transfer would be a fraudulent transfer if the transferor received less than reasonably equivalent value and the transferor was insolvent or was rendered insolvent by the transfer, was engaged or was about to engage in a business for which its assets constitute unreasonably small capital, or intended to incur or believed that it would incur debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature. A transfer may also be fraudulent if it was made with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud creditors. If any transfers in connection with the Cryovac Transaction were found by a court to be fraudulent transfers, the Company could be required to return the property or its value to the transferor or could be required to fund certain liabilities of New Grace or its subsidiaries for the benefit of their creditors, including asbestos claimants. The Company has reached an agreement in principle, described below, that will resolve all such claims. Previously, the Company was unable to

estimate the loss or range of loss in the event that there had been a finding that the Cryovac Transaction was a fraudulent transfer or gave rise to successor liability.

In the Joint Proxy Statement furnished to their respective stockholders in connection with the Cryovac Transaction, both Sealed Air and Grace stated that it was their belief that New Grace and its subsidiaries were adequately capitalized and would be adequately capitalized after the Cryovac Transaction and that none of the transfers contemplated to occur in the Cryovac Transaction would be a fraudulent transfer. They also stated their belief that the Cryovac Transaction complied with other relevant laws. However, if a court applying the relevant legal standards had reached conclusions adverse to the Company, such determinations could have had a materially adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations and financial position.

On April 2, 2001, New Grace and certain of its subsidiaries filed a petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the District of Delaware. New Grace stated that the filing was made in response to a sharply increasing number of asbestos claims since 1999.

In connection with its Chapter 11 filing, New Grace filed an application with the Bankruptcy Court seeking to stay, among others, all actions brought against the Company (including certain of its subsidiaries) related to alleged asbestos liabilities of New Grace and its subsidiaries or alleging fraudulent transfer claims. The court issued an order dated May 3, 2001, which was modified on January 22, 2002, under which all such filed or pending actions against the Company were stayed and all such future actions are stayed upon filing and service on the Company. No further proceedings involving the Company can occur in the actions that have been stayed except upon further order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Committees appointed to represent asbestos claimants in New Grace’s bankruptcy case received the court’s permission to pursue fraudulent transfer and other claims against the Company and its subsidiary Cryovac, Inc. and against Fresenius, as discussed below. The claims against Fresenius are based upon a 1996 transaction between Fresenius and W. R. Grace & Co. - Conn. Fresenius is not affiliated with the Company. In March 2002, the court ordered that the issues of the solvency of New Grace following the Cryovac Transaction and whether New Grace received reasonably equivalent value in the Cryovac Transaction would be tried on behalf of all creditors of New Grace. The proceeding is pending in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (Adv. No. 02-02210).

In June 2002, the court permitted the U.S. government to intervene as a plaintiff in the fraudulent transfer proceeding, so that the U.S. government could pursue allegations that remediation expenses at certain sites were underestimated or omitted in the solvency analyses of New Grace that were conducted at the time of the Cryovac Transaction. The court also permitted New Grace, which asserted that the Cryovac Transaction was not a fraudulent transfer, to intervene in the proceeding. In July 2002, the court issued an interim ruling on the legal standards to be applied in the trial, holding, among other things, that, subject to certain limitations, post-1998 claims should be considered in the solvency analysis of New Grace. The Company believes that only claims and liabilities that were known or reasonably should have been known at the time of the 1998 Cryovac Transaction should be considered pursuant to the applicable standard. The trial was scheduled to commence December 9, 2002.

On November 27, 2002, the Company reached an agreement in principle with the Committees prosecuting the claims against the Company and Cryovac, Inc., to resolve all current and future asbestos-related claims arising from the Cryovac Transaction. On the same day, the court entered an order confirming that an amicable resolution of the disputes among the parties had been reached and that counsel for the Company and the Committees had agreed and bound the parties to the terms of the agreement in principle. As discussed above, the agreement in principle calls for payment of 9 million shares of Sealed Air common stock and $512.5 million in cash, plus interest on the cash

payment at a 5.5% annual rate starting on December 21, 2002 and ending on the effective date of the New Grace plan of reorganization, when payment must be made. Such shares are subject to customary anti-dilution provisions (including the effects of stock splits, stock dividends and certain other events affecting the Company’s common stock). On December 3, 2002, the agreement in principle was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company was advised that both of the Committees had approved the agreement in principle as of December 5, 2002. The parties are jointly engaged in the process of drafting a definitive settlement agreement consistent with the terms of the agreement in principle. Once signed by the appropriate parties, the settlement agreement will be presented to the court for approval and will eventually be incorporated into New Grace’s plan of reorganization and, assuming approval by New Grace’s creditors as part of the approval of the plan of reorganization, will then be implemented.

The settlement, upon approval and implementation in the New Grace bankruptcy, will provide that, upon the effective date of New Grace’s plan of reorganization and payment of the shares and cash, all present and future asbestos-related claims against the Company and its affiliates that arise from alleged asbestos liabilities of New Grace and its affiliates (including former affiliates that became affiliates of the Company through the Cryovac Transaction) will be channeled to and become the responsibility of one or more trusts to be established under Section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code as part of New Grace’s plan of reorganization. The settlement will also resolve all fraudulent transfer claims against the Company and its affiliates arising from the Cryovac Transaction as well as the claims of Fresenius described below. The settlement will provide that the Company and its affiliates will receive releases of all such claims upon payment. As a condition to the Company’s obligation to make the payments required by the settlement, New Grace’s plan of reorganization must be consistent with the terms of the settlement, including provisions for the trusts and releases referred to above and for an injunction barring the prosecution of any asbestos-related claims against the Company and its affiliates. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company cannot seek indemnity from New Grace for the Company’s payments required by the settlement. It is expected that the order approving the settlement agreement will also provide that the stay of proceedings involving the Company described above will continue through the effective date of New Grace’s plan of reorganization, after which the Company will be released from the liabilities asserted in those proceedings and their continued prosecution against the Company will be enjoined.

In January 2002, the Company filed a declaratory judgment action against Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc., its parent, Fresenius AG, a German company, and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Fresenius”) in New York State court asking the court to resolve a contract dispute between the parties. Fresenius contended that the Company was obligated to indemnify Fresenius for certain liabilities that Fresenius might incur as a result of the 1996 Fresenius transaction mentioned above. Fresenius’s contention was based on its interpretation of the agreements between Fresenius and W. R. Grace & Co. - Conn. in connection with the 1996 Fresenius transaction. In February 2002, Fresenius announced that it had accrued a charge of $172.0 million for such potential liabilities, which include pre-transaction tax liabilities of New Grace and the costs of defense of litigation arising from New Grace’s Chapter 11 filing. The Company believed that it was not responsible to indemnify Fresenius under the 1996 agreements and filed the action in order to proceed to a resolution of Fresenius’s claims. In April 2002, Fresenius filed a motion to dismiss the action and for entry of declaratory relief in its favor. The Company opposed the motion, and in July 2003, the court denied the motion without prejudice in view of the November 27, 2002 agreement in principle referred to above. As noted above, as a result of the agreement in principle, the parties expect that there will be mutual releases exchanged between Fresenius and the Company releasing any and all claims related to the 1996 Fresenius transaction.

In view of New Grace’s Chapter 11 filing, the Company may receive additional claims asserting that the Company is liable for obligations that New Grace had agreed to retain in the Cryovac Transaction and for which the Company may be contingently liable. To date, no material additional claims have been asserted or threatened against the Company.

Final determinations and accountings under the Transaction Agreements with respect to matters pertaining to the Cryovac Transaction had not been completed at the time of New Grace’s Chapter 11 filing. The Company has filed claims in the bankruptcy proceeding that include all of the costs and liabilities that it has incurred or may incur that New Grace and its affiliates agreed to retain or that are subject to indemnification by New Grace and its affiliates under the Transaction Agreements other than payments to be made under the settlement agreement. New Grace has alleged that the Company is responsible for certain amounts under the Transaction Agreements. Any amounts for which the Company may be liable to New Grace may be used to offset the liabilities of New Grace and its affiliates to the Company. Costs and liabilities for which the Company intends to seek indemnification by New Grace and its affiliates include certain defense costs related to asbestos and fraudulent transfer litigation and the Fresenius claims and approximately $8.0 million paid by the Company on account of its guaranty of debt issued by W. R. Grace & Co. – Conn. Except to the extent of any potential setoff or similar claim, the Company expects that its claims will be as an unsecured creditor of New Grace. Since certain portions of the Company’s claims against New Grace and its affiliates are contingent or unliquidated, it is not currently possible to determine the amount of the Company’s claims, the extent to which such claims may be secured by setoff, how much of the claims may be allowed, or the amount of the Company’s recovery on such claims, if any, in the bankruptcy proceeding.

(11) New Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 143, “Asset Retirement Obligations” (“SFAS No. 143”), which provides the accounting requirements for retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets. This statement requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS No. 146”). SFAS No. 146 nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)” (“EITF 94-3”) and requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred. Under EITF 94-3, a liability for an exit cost was required to be recognized at the date of an entity’s commitment to an exit plan. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 is expected to result in delayed recognition for certain types of costs as compared to the provisions of EITF 94-3. SFAS No. 146 is effective for new exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, and does not affect amounts currently reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 146 will affect the types and timing of costs included in future restructuring programs, if any.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS No. 148”), which provides alternative methods of transition for companies that choose to switch to the fair value method of accounting for stock options. SFAS No. 148 also makes changes in the disclosure requirements for stock-based compensation, regardless of which method of accounting is chosen. The Company had terminated all previously maintained stock option plans effective March 31, 1998 in connection with the Cryovac Transaction, except with respect to options that were still outstanding as of such date. SFAS No. 148 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

at December 31, 2002. In addition, Interpretation No. 45 requires the recognition of a liability for the fair value of the obligation of qualifying guarantee activities that are initiated or modified after December 31, 2002. The Company had no guarantees meeting the requirements of Interpretation No. 45 at June 30, 2003.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“Interpretation No. 46”). Interpretation No. 46 requires that the assets, liabilities and results of the activity of variable interest entities be consolidated into the financial statements of the company that has the controlling financial interest. Interpretation No. 46 also provides the framework for determining whether a variable interest entity should be consolidated based on voting interests or significant financial support provided to it. Interpretation No. 46 was effective for the Company on February 1, 2003 for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and will be effective on July 31, 2003 for variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003. Based on its preliminary analysis of Interpretation No. 46, the Company does not currently expect the adoption of Interpretation No. 46 to have a material impact on its 2003 consolidated financial statements.

In January 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF 02-16, “Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor” (“EITF 02-16”), which states that cash consideration received from a vendor is presumed to be a reduction of the prices of the vendor’s products or services and should, therefore, be characterized as a reduction of cost of sales when recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. That presumption is overcome when the consideration is either a reimbursement of specific, incremental, identifiable costs incurred to sell the vendor’s products, or a payment for assets or services delivered to the vendor. EITF 02-16 is effective for arrangements entered into after December 31, 2002. The adoption of EITF 02-16 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity” (“SFAS No. 150”). SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 will be effective for the Company on July 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The information in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition should be read together with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes set forth in Item 1 of Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. All amounts and percentages are approximate due to rounding.

Net Sales

Net sales for the second quarter of 2003 increased 10% to $865.6 million compared to $786.3 million in the second quarter of 2002. The components of the increase in net sales for the second quarter were as follows (dollars in millions):

	Food Packaging Segment				Protective & Specialty Packaging Segment					Total Company
Volume – Units	3.0	%	$	14.1	(2.9	)%	$	(9.0	)	0.7	%	$	5.1
Volume – Acquired Businesses	—		—		0.6		1.7			0.2		1.7
Price/Mix	3.4		16.8		3.0		9.5			3.3		26.3
Foreign Currency Translation	6.2		29.5		5.4		16.7			5.9		46.2
Total	12.6	%	$	60.4	6.1	%	$	18.9		10.1	%	$	79.3

Net sales for the first six months of 2003 increased 10% to $1,688.4 million compared to $1,532.4 million in the first six months of 2002. The components of the increase in net sales for the first six months were as follows (dollars in millions):

	Food Packaging Segment				Protective & Specialty Packaging Segment				Total Company
Volume – Units	2.5	%	$	23.6	1.4	%	$	8.1	2.1	%	$	31.7
Volume – Acquired Businesses	—		—		0.8		4.8		0.3		4.8
Price/Mix	2.6		23.8		1.0		6.3		2.0		30.1
Foreign Currency Translation	6.0		56.3		5.5		33.1		5.8		89.4
Total	11.1	%	$	103.7	8.7	%	$	52.3	10.2	%	$	156.0

Foreign currency translation had a favorable impact on net sales of $46.2 million in the second quarter of 2003. Excluding the positive effect of foreign currency translation, net sales would have increased 4% compared to the second quarter of 2002. Foreign currency translation had a favorable impact on net sales of $89.4 million in the first six months of 2003. Excluding the positive effect of foreign currency translation, net sales would have increased 4% compared to the first six months of 2002. This favorable foreign currency translation impact was primarily due to the strengthening of foreign currencies in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region against the U.S. dollar, partially offset by the weakness of the Brazilian real. Net sales from Brazilian operations were approximately 2% of the Company’s net sales for the second quarters and first six months of 2003 and 2002.

Net sales of the Company’s food packaging segment, which consists primarily of the Company’s Cryovac® food packaging products, constituted 62% and 61% of net sales in the second quarter and first six months of 2003, respectively, and 61% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002.

Net sales of the Company’s protective and specialty packaging segment, which includes the aggregation of the Company’s protective packaging products, engineered products and shrink packaging products, all of which are used principally for non-food packaging applications, constituted the balance of net sales.

Food Packaging Segment Sales

Net sales of food packaging products increased 13% in the second quarter of 2003 to $538.9 million compared to $478.5 million in the second quarter of 2002. Foreign currency translation had a favorable impact on this segment of $29.5 million in the second quarter of 2003. Excluding the positive foreign currency translation effect, net sales for this segment would have increased 6%.

Net sales of food packaging products increased 11% in the first six months of 2003 to $1,037.1 million compared to $933.4 million in the first six months of 2002. Foreign currency translation had a favorable impact on this segment of $56.3 million in the first six months of 2003. Excluding the positive foreign currency translation effect, net sales for this segment would have increased 5%.

Protective and Specialty Packaging Segment Sales

Net sales of protective and specialty packaging products increased 6% in the second quarter of 2003 to $326.7 million compared to $307.8 million in the second quarter of 2002. Foreign currency translation had a favorable impact on this segment of $16.7 million in the second quarter of 2003. Excluding the positive foreign currency translation effect, net sales for this segment would have increased 1%.

Net sales of protective and specialty packaging products increased 9% in the first six months of 2003 to $651.3 million compared to $599.0 million in the first six months of 2002. Foreign currency translation had a favorable impact on this segment of $33.1 million in the first six months of 2003. Excluding the positive foreign currency translation effect, net sales for this segment would have increased 3%.

Sales by Geographic Region

The components of the increase in net sales by geographic region for the second quarter of 2003 were as follows (dollars in millions):

	U.S.				International					Total Company
Volume – Units	1.3	%	$	5.7	(0.2	)%	$	(0.6	)	0.7	%	$	5.1
Volume – Acquired Businesses	0.3		1.4		0.1		0.3			0.2		1.7

Total	6.0	%	$	25.8	15.1	%	$	53.5		10.1	%	$	79.3

Net sales from operations in the United States represented 53% of net sales in the second quarter of 2003 and 55% in the second quarter of 2002. Net sales from U.S. operations increased 6% in the second quarter of 2003 to $457.8 million compared with $432.0 million in the second quarter of 2002. Net sales from international operations increased 15% in the second quarter of 2003 to $407.8 million compared to $354.3 million for the second quarter of 2002. Excluding the $46.2 million positive foreign currency translation effect, international net sales would have increased 2% compared to the second quarter of 2002.

The components of the increase in net sales by geographic region for the first six months of 2003 were as follows (dollars in millions):

	U.S.				International				Total Company
Volume – Units	2.5	%	$	20.8	1.6	%	$	10.9	2.1	%	$	31.7
Volume – Acquired Businesses	0.5		4.1		0.1		0.7		0.3		4.8

Total	5.2	%	$	44.2	16.3	%	$	111.8	10.2	%	$	156.0

Net sales from operations in the United States represented 53% of net sales in the first six months of 2003 and 55% in the first six months of 2002. Net sales from U.S. operations increased 5% in the

first six months of 2003 to $890.1 million compared with $845.9 million in the first six months of 2002. Net sales from international operations increased 16% in the first six months of 2003 to $798.3 million compared to $686.5 million for the first six months of 2002. Excluding the $89.4 million positive foreign currency translation effect, international net sales would have increased 3% compared to the first six months of 2002.

Costs and Margins

Gross profit was $269.5 million or 31.1% of net sales and $528.9 million or 31.3% of net sales in the second quarter and first six months of 2003, respectively, compared to $260.0 million or 33.1% of net sales and $510.6 million or 33.3% of net sales in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter and first six months of 2003 compared to the 2002 periods was primarily due to increased petrochemical-based raw materials costs.

Marketing, administrative and development expenses increased 8% in the second quarter of 2003 to $142.1 million compared to $131.4 million in the second quarter of 2002 and increased 8% in the first six months of 2003 to $280.7 million compared to $259.1 million in the first six months of 2002. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses were 16.4% and 16.7% of net sales in the second quarters of 2003 and 2002 respectively, and 16.6% and 16.9% in the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Operating Profit

Operating profit decreased 1% in the second quarter of 2003 to $127.4 million compared to $128.6 million in the second quarter of 2002 and decreased 1% in the first six months of 2003 to $248.2 million compared to $251.5 million in the first six months of 2002. The decrease in the second quarter and first six months of 2003 was primarily due to lower gross profit as discussed above, partially offset by increased net sales. As a percentage of net sales, operating profit was 14.7% and 16.4% in the second quarters of 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 14.7% and 16.4% in the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Operating profit by business segment for 2003 and 2002 was as follows (dollars in millions):

	For the Quarter Ended June 30,						For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2003			2002			2003			2002
Food Packaging Segment	$	85.6		$	80.3		$	161.5		$	152.1
Protective and Specialty Packaging Segment	49.4			53.9			101.6			109.1
Total segments	135.0			134.2			263.1			261.2
Unallocated corporate operating expenses	(7.6		)	(5.6		)	(14.9		)	(9.7		)
Total	$	127.4		$	128.6		$	248.2		$	251.5

The food packaging segment contributed 63% and 60% of the Company’s operating profit in the second quarters of 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 61% and 58% in the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively, before taking into consideration unallocated corporate operating expenses. The protective and specialty packaging segment contributed the balance of operating profit.

Interest Expense and Other Income (Expense), net

Interest expense increased to $26.5 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $16.5 million in the second quarter of 2002 and increased to $48.9 million in the first six months of 2003 compared to $33.2 million in the first six months of 2002, due to accrued interest of $7.0 million and $14.1 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2003, respectively, on the cash portion of the asbestos settlement and accrued interest of $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2003 related to the 5.375% Senior Notes discussed below that were issued in April 2003. Interest expense for the full

year of 2003, net of the favorable effect of the U.S. Treasury lock agreements discussed below, will include an additional $32.6 million due to the issuance in July 2003 of the 5.625% Senior Notes, 6.875% Senior Notes and the 3% Convertible Senior Notes discussed below.

Other income, net, was $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to expense of $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2002 and income of $1.4 million in the first six months of 2003 compared to expense of $3.8 million in the first six months of 2002. The change in both periods was primarily due to a decrease in net foreign exchange losses during the 2003 periods.

Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 36.0% and 40.6% for the second quarters of 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 36.5% and 41.0% for the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate in the second quarter and first six months of 2003 was primarily due to improved tax efficiency resulting from a recent reorganization of the Company’ s international subsidiaries. Such rates were higher than the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes. The Company expects the effective tax rate to be 36.5% for the full year of 2003.

Net Earnings

As a result of the above, net earnings were $65.8 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $66.0 million in the second quarter of 2002 and $127.5 million in the first six months of 2003 compared to $126.6 million in the first six months of 2002.

Basic and diluted earnings per common share were $0.63 and $0.56, respectively, for the second quarter of 2003 compared to basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.66 and $0.61 for the second quarter of 2002. Basic and diluted earnings per common share were $1.21 and $1.08, respectively, for the first six months of 2003 compared to basic and diluted earnings per common share of $1.22 and $1.17 for the first six months of 2002.

The basic earnings per common share calculations for the second quarter and first six months of 2003 include $0.01, and for the second quarter and first six months of 2002 include $0.04, per share of gains (excess of book value over repurchase price of preferred stock), attributable to the repurchase of preferred stock in the period. To calculate diluted earnings per common share, the excess of book value over the repurchase price of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock in the second quarter and first six months of 2003 of $0.79 million and in the second quarter and first six months of 2002 of $3.20 million and $3.38 million, respectively, were excluded from the calculations.

The diluted earnings per common share in the 2003 and 2002 periods were calculated assuming conversion of the shares of Series A preferred stock repurchased during each of the respective periods in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Emerging Issues Task Force Topic D-53 guidance. The effect of the conversion of the Company’s outstanding Series A convertible preferred stock was not considered in the calculations of diluted earnings per common share for any of the 2003 periods presented because the effect would be antidilutive, since such assumed conversions may be included only if the resulting impact would dilute earnings per common share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are accumulated cash, cash flows from operations and amounts available under its existing lines of credit, which are described below.

Recapitalization

On July 1, 2003, the Company issued $1,225.0 million of senior notes in transactions that were exempt from registration under Rule 144A and other available exemptions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). These senior notes consisted of the following:

• $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior notes due July 15, 2013 (the “5.625% Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and unamortized bond discount but before other offering expenses, were $396.1 million.

• $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior notes due July 15, 2033 (the “6.875% Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and unamortized bond discount but before other offering expenses, were $444.5 million.

• $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.00% convertible senior notes due June 30, 2033 (the “3% Convertible Senior Notes”). Subsequently, on July 16, 2003, the initial purchasers of the 3% Convertible Senior Notes exercised their option to purchase an additional $56.25 million of 3% Convertible Senior Notes. The net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount but before other offering expenses, were $422.1 million.

On July 18, 2003, the Company used cash of $1,298.1 million to redeem all their outstanding shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock at their redemption price of $51.00 per share plus an amount equal to $2.4 million of dividends accrued on such shares from July 1, 2003 through July 17, 2003. The $51.00 per share redemption price included a $1.00 per share premium that such shares were entitled to over their $50.00 per share redemption value, amounting in the aggregate to $25.5 million. The $27.9 million paid for such redemption premium and accrued dividends will be charged against shareholders’ equity in the third quarter of 2003 and will reduce net earnings ascribed to common shareholders in the third quarter of 2003.

The following table sets forth as of June 30, 2003:

• the Company’s actual capitalization; and

• the Company’s capitalization as adjusted to reflect the sale of the senior notes issued on July 1, 2003, the exercise of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase additional 3% Convertible Senior Notes on July 16, 2003, and the application of the net proceeds of those offerings, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and unamortized bond discounts but before other offering expenses, and a portion of the Company’s available cash to redeem on July 18, 2003 all of the Company’s outstanding Series A convertible preferred stock and to pay accrued dividends on such shares for the period from July 1, 2003 to July 17, 2003.

The data in this table are derived from the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2003. You should read this table in conjunction with those financial statements and the related notes.

(1) Cash and cash equivalents, as adjusted, reflects the application of $37.9 million of available cash used in connection with the recapitalization.

(2) Shareholders’ equity and cash and cash equivalents were reduced by $2.4 million of accrued dividends on the Company’s Series A convertible preferred stock paid upon redemption for the period from July 1, 2003 to July 17, 2003.

(3) Gives effect to the conversion into common stock of 337,362 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock in July 2003 prior to their redemption date. All of the remaining shares of Series A convertible preferred stock on July 18, 2003 were redeemed at a price of $51.00 per share. Such conversions increased shareholder’s equity and reduced the balance sheet value of the Series A convertible preferred stock by $16.9 million. Upon redemption, the Series A convertible preferred stock was reduced by its remaining balance sheet value of $1,272.6 million, reflecting its aggregate redemption value of the $50.00 per share, and shareholders’ equity was reduced by $25.5 million for the aggregate amount of the redemption premium of $1.00 per share.

(4) At June 30, 2003, after giving effect to the redemption of the Series A convertible preferred stock, the Company had 84,579,358 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Such number of shares does not include (i) 6,160,708 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes; (ii) 1,114,647 shares of common stock reserved for issuance at June 30, 2003 under the Company’s contingent stock plan and directors’ stock plan, (iii) 293,639 shares of common stock reserved for issuance at June 30, 2003 under outstanding stock options; and (iv) 9 million shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the Company’s asbestos settlement.

5.375% Senior Notes

On April 14, 2003, the Company issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.375% senior notes due April 2008 (the “5.375% Senior Notes”) in transactions exempt from registration under Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. Accrued interest on these senior notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing on October 15, 2003. The net proceeds of $296.0 million (net of initial purchasers’ discounts, unamortized bond discount and other offering expenses) received from the issuance of these senior notes was added to the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and may be used for general corporate purposes, which may include the funding of a portion of the cash payment required to be made in connection with the asbestos settlement liability and other working capital purposes.

Asbestos Settlement

The Company recorded a charge of $512.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2002 covering a cash payment that the Company is required to make upon the effectiveness of a plan of reorganization in the bankruptcy of W. R. Grace & Co. (“New Grace”). No cash was used in the first six months of 2003

with respect to this liability, and it is currently uncertain when the Company will be required to make this payment. The Company currently expects to fund this payment either by using accumulated cash and future cash flows from operations, proceeds from the 5.375% Senior Notes, proceeds of future financings, or a combination of these alternatives.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $168.1 million for the first six months of 2003 and $82.8 million for the first six months of 2002. The increase in 2003 was primarily due to the following:

• changes in the Receivables Facility (which is described below); and

• changes in operating assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business, as discussed below under “Changes in Working Capital”.

The participating financial institutions held no Receivables Interests pursuant to the Receivables Facility at the beginning or end of the first six months of 2003, and therefore the Receivables Facility had no effect on net cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2003. Similarly, the Receivables Interests sold to the participating financial institutions in the fourth quarter of 2001 were not replaced with additional Receivables Interests at the end of the first quarter of 2002. This accounted for the $95.6 million reduction in the net cash provided by operating activities as a result of the Receivables Facility for the first six months of 2002.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities amounted to $51.3 million for the first six months of 2003 compared to $52.9 million for the first six months of 2002. In each period, investing activities consisted primarily of capital expenditures and in the 2002 period also included cash used to acquire businesses in purchase transactions. The decrease in net cash used in these activities in the first six months of 2003 was due to the absence of acquisitions in the 2003 period, offset by higher capital expenditures. Capital expenditures were $52.5 million in 2003 compared to $44.5 million in 2002. The Company currently anticipates that capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2003 will be in the range of $125.0 million to $150.0 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $215.6 million for the first six months of 2003 compared to net cash used in financing activities of $17.9 million for the first six months of 2002.

The change in financing activities in 2003 was primarily due to the following:

• an increase in proceeds from long-term debt primarily due to the net cash proceeds in April 2003 of $296.0 million (net of initial purchasers’ discounts, unamortized bond discount and other offering expenses) from the issuance of the 5.375% Senior Notes, described above.

• a decrease in net debt repayments in the 2003 period of $32.8 million compared to net debt repayments in 2002 of $99.7 million. During the first six months of 2003, the Company continued to reduce outstanding debt, which included payments on its ANZ Facility (defined below) and other lines of credit. During the first six months of 2002, the net debt repayments were primarily for the 2003 Facility (defined below), the ANZ Facility and other lines of credit.

• proceeds of $13.9 million from the Company’s termination of U.S. Treasury lock agreements that were entered into to manage interest rate risks arising from the planned issuance of the 5.375% Senior Notes, the 5.625% Senior Notes and the 6.875% Senior Notes. See “Derivative Financial Instruments” below for further information on these derivatives.

• a timing difference in 2002 relating to the payment of dividends on the Company’s outstanding Series A convertible preferred stock. During the first six months of 2003, the Company paid cash dividends of $26.6 million compared to $13.7 million for the first six months of 2002. The lower amount in the 2002 period was due to the Company pre-funding in December 2001 the dividend payable on January 2, 2002. The aggregate dollar amount of that dividend was $13.7 million.

• an increase of $17.1 million in cash used to purchase the Company’s Series A convertible preferred stock in open-market transactions as described below.

Repurchases of Capital Stock

During the first six months of 2003, the Company repurchased 750,600 shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock at a cost of $36.7 million. During the first six months of 2002, the Company repurchased 459,900 shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock at a cost of $19.6 million. The average price per share of these preferred stock repurchases in the first six months of 2003 and 2002 was $48.94 and $42.67, respectively. The Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock in either period.

The share repurchases described above were made pursuant to a program previously adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors. The share repurchase program authorizes the repurchase of up to 16,977,000 shares of common stock (which included Series A convertible preferred stock on an as-converted basis prior to its redemption). As of June 30, 2003, approximately 10,116,000 shares of common stock on an as-converted basis had been repurchased, and approximately 6,861,000 shares on an as-converted basis remained authorized for repurchase.

As discussed above, on July 18, 2003 the Company redeemed all of its outstanding shares of Series A convertible preferred stock.

Changes in Working Capital

At June 30, 2003, working capital was a net asset of $325.9 million compared to a net liability of $96.5 million at December 31, 2002. The net liability position in working capital at the end of December 2002 was primarily due to recording the $512.5 million cash portion of the asbestos settlement liability as a current liability at December 31, 2002.

The increase in the Company’s net asset for working capital during the first six months of 2003 arose primarily from the following changes in the ordinary course of business:

• increase in cash and cash equivalents primarily due to the net cash proceeds of $296.0 million from the April 2003 issuance of the 5.375% Senior Notes, described above, and cash flows generated from operations;

• increase in inventories, primarily due to increased petrochemical-based raw materials costs, certain quantity increases in the ordinary course of business and $18.4 million from the effects of foreign currency translation;

• increase in notes and accounts receivable primarily due to the effects of foreign currency translation;

• decrease in short-term borrowings primarily due to net repayments; and

• decrease in other current liabilities, primarily due to a decrease in payroll-related costs (includes the Company’s contribution to the profit sharing plan in a combination of cash and shares of its common stock); offset by an increase in accrued interest of $14.1 million related to the asbestos settlement liability and $3.4 million from the issuance in April 2003 of the 5.375% Senior Notes.

Current and Quick Ratios

The ratio of current assets to current liabilities (current ratio) was 1.3 at June 30, 2003 and 0.9 at December 31, 2002. The ratio of current assets less inventory to current liabilities (quick ratio) was 1.0 at June 30, 2003 and 0.6 at December 31, 2002.

Accounts Receivable Facility

The Receivables Facility was amended on April 2, 2003 to provide that SA Funding Corp. may sell Receivables Interests aggregating up to $60.0 million originated only by Sealed Air Corporation (US) to the Bank or the ICP until a definitive asbestos settlement agreement, satisfactory to the Bank, has been entered into. Once a satisfactory asbestos settlement agreement has been executed, the Company expects that this Facility will again become available for the sale of Receivables Interests originated by Cryovac, Inc. as well as Sealed Air Corporation (US) up to the maximum of $125.0 million of Receivables Interests provided for by the Receivables Facility.

The Company considers that the Receivables Facility provides a source of short-term liquidity.

Outstanding Indebtedness

The Company allowed its $525.0 million principal revolving credit facility (the “2003 Facility”) to expire in accordance with its terms on March 30, 2003. The Company has not replaced the 2003 Facility since the Company believes that its current accumulated cash, other financial resources and cash flows, including the net proceeds of the senior notes issued in April and July 2003, after giving effect to the redemption of the Series A convertible preferred stock, and amounts available under its committed and uncommitted lines of credit, are adequate to meet its current operating and investing needs and to pay its current debt obligations at June 30, 2003 of $43.5 million as well as to fund a portion of the cash payment for the asbestos settlement, which is required to be made upon the effectiveness of a plan of reorganization in the bankruptcy of New Grace. The Company will continue to review financing alternatives to meet future cash requirements.

At June 30, 2003 and at December 31, 2002, the Company’s total debt outstanding consisted of the amounts set forth on the following table (amounts in table in millions of dollars):

	June 30, 2003 (1)		December 31, 2002
Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt:
Short-term borrowings	$	41.3	$	53.4
Current portion of long-term debt	2.2		2.0

Total current debt	43.5		55.4

Long-term debt, less current portion:
5.625% Euro Notes due July 2006, less unamortized discount of $0.8 in 2003 and $0.8 in 2002 (2)	228.2		205.2
8.75% Senior Notes due July 2008, less unamortized discount of $1.1 in 2003 and $1.2 in 2002	298.9		298.8
6.95% Senior Notes due May 2009, less unamortized discount of $1.5 in 2003 and $1.6 in 2002	298.5		298.5
5.375% Senior Notes due April 2008, less unamortized discount of $2.3 in 2003	297.7		—
ANZ Credit Facility and other	56.1		65.5

Total long-term debt, less current portion	1,179.4		868.0

Total debt	$	1,222.9	$	923.4

(1) Does not include $1,281.25 million of Senior Notes, discussed above, that were issued in July 2003.

(2) The carrying value of the Euro Notes increased approximately $22.9 in the first six months of 2003, primarily as a result of the strengthening of the euro compared to the U.S. dollar during the first six months of 2003.

The carrying value of the 5.375% Senior Notes at June 30, 2003 was $297.7 million, net of unamortized discount and an adjustment to record a decrease in the fair value of the 5.375% Senior Notes due to changes in interest rates of $0.8 million related to certain interest rate swaps the Company has entered into with respect to these notes.

Each issue of the Company’s outstanding senior notes (including those issued in July 2003), and the Euro Notes impose certain limitations on the operations of the Company and those of certain of its subsidiaries, including limitations on liens, sale and leaseback transactions and certain acquisitions and dispositions. The Company was in compliance with these limitations at June 30, 2003.

The Company’s cost of capital and ability to obtain external financing may be affected by its debt ratings, which are periodically reviewed by the credit rating agencies. The Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt is currently rated Baa3 (negative outlook) by Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. and BBB (credit watch with negative implications) by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of

the McGraw-Hill Companies. These ratings are among the ratings assigned by each of these organizations for investment grade long-term senior unsecured debt. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating.

Derivative Financial Instruments

During the second quarter of 2003, the Company entered into U.S. Treasury lock agreements with a total notional amount of $700.0 million that qualified and were designated as cash flow hedges. U.S. Treasury lock agreements are instruments used to manage the risks associated with the movements in U.S. Treasury rates. The Company entered into such agreements to manage interest rate risks arising from the planned issuance of the 5.375% Senior Notes in April 2003 and the planned issuance of the 5.625% Senior Notes and the 6.875% Senior Notes in July 2003. The Company terminated these U.S. Treasury lock agreements prior to June 30, 2003 and received net cash proceeds of $13.9 million. Such amount has been reflected in other comprehensive income and is being amortized and reflected as a net reduction of interest expense over the life of the respective senior note issue. At June 30, 2003, the Company was not party to any of these types of contracts.

At June 30, 2003, the Company was party to foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps, which did not have a significant impact on the Company’s liquidity.

Shareholders’ Equity

Shareholders’ equity was $968.7 million at June 30, 2003 and $813.0 million at December 31, 2002.

Shareholders’ equity increased in the first six months of 2003 primarily due to the following:

• net earnings of $127.5 million,

• reduced foreign currency translation adjustments of $29.2 million,

• unrecognized gain on derivative instruments of $8.4 million, net of income tax, related to the termination of the Company’s treasury lock agreements discussed above; and

• the Company’s contribution of its common stock to its profit sharing plan of $9.8 million;

partially offset by:

• Series A convertible preferred stock dividends of $26.2 million.

For a discussion of the effect of the Company’s redemption of the Series A convertible preferred stock on shareholders’ equity, see “Recapitalization” above.

Other Matters

Cryovac Transaction and Contingencies Related to the Cryovac Transaction

The information set forth in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in Note 10 (“Commitments and Contingencies”) of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is incorporated herein by reference.

Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to loss contingencies resulting from environmental laws and regulations, and it accrues for anticipated costs associated with investigatory and remediation efforts when an assessment has indicated that a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. These accruals

do not take into account any discounting for the time value of money and are not reduced by potential insurance recoveries, if any. Environmental liabilities are reassessed whenever circumstances become better defined and/or remediation efforts and their costs can be better estimated. These liabilities are evaluated periodically based on available information, including the progress of remedial investigations at each site, the current status of discussions with regulatory authorities regarding the methods and extent of remediation and the apportionment of costs among potentially responsible parties. As some of these issues are decided (the outcomes of which are subject to uncertainties) and/or new sites are assessed and costs can be reasonably estimated, the Company adjusts the recorded accruals, as necessary. The Company believes that such exposures are not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations and financial position. The Company believes that it has adequately reserved for all probable and estimable environmental exposures.

Recently Issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“Interpretation No. 45”). Interpretation No. 45 requires the disclosure of certain guarantees existing at December 31, 2002. In addition, Interpretation No. 45 requires the recognition of a liability for the fair value of the obligation of qualifying guarantee activities that are initiated or modified after December 31, 2002. The Company had no guarantees meeting the requirements of Interpretation No. 45 at June 30, 2003.

voting interests or significant financial support provided to it. Interpretation No. 46 was effective for the Company on February 1, 2003 for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and became effective on July 31, 2003 for variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003. Based on its preliminary analysis of Interpretation No. 46, the Company does not currently expect the adoption of Interpretation No. 46 to have a material impact on its 2003 consolidated financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity” (“SFAS No. 150”). SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 became effective for the Company on July 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For a discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made by the Company in this report, in documents incorporated by reference herein, and in future oral and written statements by the Company may be forward-looking. These statements include comments as to the Company’s beliefs and expectations as to future events and trends affecting the Company’s business, its results of operations and its financial condition. These forward-looking statements are based upon management’s current expectations concerning future events and discuss, among other things, anticipated future performance and future business plans. Forward-looking statements are identified by such words and phrases as “expects,” “intends,” “believes,” “will continue,” “plans to,” “could be,” “estimates” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are necessarily subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside the control of the Company, which could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements.

The Company recognizes that it is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may affect the future performance of the Company, such as:

• economic, political, business and market conditions in the geographic areas in which it conducts business;

• factors affecting the customers, industries and markets that use the Company’s packaging materials and systems;

• competitive factors;

• production capacity;

• raw material availability and pricing;

• changes in energy-related expenses;

• changes in the value of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar;

• changes in interest rates, credit availability and ratings;

• the effect on the Company of new pronouncements by accounting authorities;

• the Company’s ability to hire, develop and retain talented employees worldwide;

• the Company’s development and commercialization of successful new products;

• the Company’s accomplishments in entering new markets and acquiring and integrating new businesses;

• the Company’s access to financing and other sources of capital;

• the success of the Company’s key information systems projects;

• the magnitude and timing of the Company’s capital expenditures;

• the Company’s inventory management proficiency;

• changes in the Company’s relationships with customers and suppliers;

• the approval and implementation of a definitive settlement agreement with the Official Committee of Asbestos Personal Injury Claimants, the Official Committee of Asbestos Property Damage Claimants and any other appropriate parties in the New Grace bankruptcy proceeding;

• acts and effects of war or terrorism; and

• changes in domestic or foreign laws, rules or regulations, or governmental or agency actions (including the effects of federal asbestos legislation, if enacted) .

Except as required by the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For a discussion of market risks at December 31, 2002, refer to Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. During the first six months of 2003, the Company executed various foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and treasury lock agreements that do not materially alter the market risk assessment performed as of December 31, 2002.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have also concluded that there has not been any change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls or its internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons or by collusion of two or more people. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

The Company used the net proceeds of these offerings as well as a portion of its available cash to redeem on July 18, 2003 all of its outstanding shares of Series A convertible preferred stock. The 5.625% Senior Notes, 6.875% Senior Notes and the 3% Convertible Senior Notes impose certain limitations on the operations of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The limitations include restrictions on the creation of liens, sale-leaseback transactions, merger or consolidation of the Company and disposition of substantially all of the Company’s assets. The information set forth in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q regarding the 5.625% Senior Notes, the 6.875% Senior Notes, and the 3% Convertible Senior Notes in Note 7 (“Debt”) of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company is incorporated herein by reference.

The notes were offered and sold only to institutions reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers,” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The aggregate offering price was $431.25 million, and the aggregate of the initial purchasers’ discounts amounted to $9.16 million. Exemption from registration under the Securities Act was claimed pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The terms of conversion of the notes are set forth in Note 7 (“Debt”) of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company, set forth in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

On July 18, 2003, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock for their redemption value (including a premium of $1.00 per share) of $51.00 per share plus $2.4 million for dividends accrued thereon from July 1, 2003 through July 17, 2003.

relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date.

Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders of such series of Securities and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of such series of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106.

With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of the applicable series of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

SECTION 105. Notices, Etc., to Trustee, Company and Subsidiary Guarantors.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

(1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Department, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Holders or the Company by the Trustee, or, with respect to notices by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, transmitted by facsimile transmission (confirmed by guaranteed overnight courier) to the following facsimile numbers: (404) 588-7335 or to any other facsimile number previously furnished in writing to the Company by the Trustee, or

(2) the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to it addressed to it at the address of the Company’s principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument, Attention: General Counsel and Secretary, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company or, with respect to notices by the Trustee, transmitted by facsimile transmission (confirmed by guaranteed overnight courier) to the following facsimile number: (201) 703-4113 or to any other facsimile number previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

SECTION 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the applicable Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall

be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

SECTION 107. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

SECTION 108. Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

SECTION 109. Separability Clause.

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities or 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.

SECTION 110. Benefits of Indenture.

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities or any Subsidiary Guarantee, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders of Securities, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

SECTION 111. Governing Law.

THIS INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 112. Legal Holidays.

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities or any Subsidiary Guarantee) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or at the Stated Maturity, provided that no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, to such Business Day if such payment is made or duly provided for on such Business Day.

SECTION 113. Confidentiality.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other written or oral understanding or agreement among the parties, the parties (and each employee,

representative, or other agent of the parties) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and any facts that may be relevant to the tax structure of the transactions (and any related transactions or arrangement) contemplated hereby, provided, however, that no party (and no employee, representative, or other agent thereof) shall disclose any other information that is not relevant to understanding the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the identity of any party and any information that could lead another to determine the identity of any party), or any other information to the extent that such disclosure could reasonably result in a violation of any federal or state securities law.

SECTION 203. Form of Reverse of 5 5/8% Note.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company designated as its 5⁵/₈% Senior Notes due 2013 (herein called the “Securities”) issued under an Indenture, dated as of July 1, 2003 (herein called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and the Trustee, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture). The aggregate principal amount of the Securities is unlimited. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Securities are subject to redemption at the election of the Company as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice by first-class mail, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of such Securities and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on such Securities from the Redemption Date to the applicable maturity date discounted, in either case, to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as such term is defined in the Indenture) plus 30 basis points, plus, in either (i) or (ii), any interest accrued but not paid to the date of redemption.

Each Subsidiary Guarantee issued pursuant to the terms of the Indenture shall provide that the Subsidiary Guarantor party thereto shall be released from its obligations under such Subsidiary Guarantee if it is no longer a subsidiary guarantor under, and as such term is defined in, the Credit Agreements and upon delivery to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate certifying to that effect.

The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee, may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

In addition, subject to the provisions of Section 102, the Trustee shall authenticate additional Securities of each series (collectively, the “Additional Securities”) upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of Securities to be authenticated and the date on which such Securities are to be authenticated and certifying that all conditions precedent

to the issuance of the Additional Securities contained herein have been complied with and that no default or Event of Default would occur as a result of the issuance of such Additional Securities. The aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, if any, is unlimited.

The 5⁵/₈% Notes shall be known and designated as the “5⁵/₈% Senior Notes due 2013” of the Company. Their Stated Maturity shall be July 15, 2013 and they shall bear interest at the rate of 5⁵/₈% per annum, from July 1, 2003 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be, payable semiannually on January 15 and July 15, commencing January 15, 2004, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment.

The 6⁷/₈% Notes shall be known and designated as the “6⁷/₈% Senior Notes due 2033” of the Company. Their Stated Maturity shall be July 15, 2033 and they shall bear interest at the rate of 6⁷/₈% per annum, from July 1, 2003 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be, payable semiannually on January 15 and July 15, commencing January 15, 2004, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment.

The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on each series of the Securities shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York (which initially shall be the office of the Trustee located at SunTrust Bank c/o Computershare Trust Company of New York, Wall Street Plaza, 88 Pine Street, 19^th Floor, New York, New York 10005), maintained for such purpose and at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose; provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.

The Securities shall not have the benefit of any sinking fund obligations.

Each series of Securities shall be subject to defeasance at the option of the Company as provided in Article Twelve.

The Original Securities and the Additional Securities, if any, of each series, shall constitute one series for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, amendments, waivers and redemptions.

Each series of Securities shall be guaranteed by any Subsidiary Guarantors as provided in Article Thirteen and any Subsidiary Guarantees, the form of which is set forth in Annex D hereto.

SECTION 302. Denominations.

Each series of the Securities shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

SECTION 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its President or one of its Vice Presidents, under its corporate seal reproduced thereon attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers or the Company’s seal on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities; and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities as in this Indenture provided and not otherwise.

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein, executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

SECTION 304. Temporary Securities.

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities, which Securities are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities, in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution thereof.

If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities, upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities.

SECTION 305. Global Securities.

(a) Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated by the Company for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary (A) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered as such under the Exchange Act, (ii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Security, or (iii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all Global Securities shall be exchanged in whole for Securities that are not Global Securities (in which case such exchange shall be effected by the Trustee).

(c) If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities of the same series or cancelled in whole, it shall be surrendered by or on behalf of the Depositary or its nominee to the Trustee, as Security Registrar, for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article Three. If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities of the same series or cancelled in part, or if another Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in any Global Security of the same series, then either (i) such Global Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article Three or (ii) the principal amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged or cancelled, or equal to the principal amount of such other Security to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Trustee, as Security Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Security, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 305(b) and as otherwise provided in this Article Three, authenticate and deliver any Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Security (or any portion thereof) to or upon the order of, and registered in such names as may be directed by, the Depositary or its authorized representative. Upon the request of the Trustee in connection with the occurrence of any of the events specified in the preceding paragraph, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Securities of such series that are not in the form of Global Securities. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon any order, direction or request of the Depositary or its authorized representative which is given or made pursuant to this Article Three if such order, direction or request is given or made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

(d) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Article Three, Section 905, or Section 1108 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

(e) The Depositary or its nominee, as registered owner of a Global Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under this Indenture, the Securities and any Subsidiary Guarantees, and owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Security will be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Agent Members.

SECTION 306. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally; Certain Transfers and Exchanges; Securities Act Legends.

(a) Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register for each series of Securities (such register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of each series of Securities and of transfers and exchanges of each series of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers and exchanges of Securities as herein provided.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture.

At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for new Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company and any Subsidiary Guarantors, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities, surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 305, 306, 905 or 1108 not involving any transfer.

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of the applicable series selected for redemption under Section 1104 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

(b) Certain Transfers and Exchanges. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Securities, transfers and exchanges of Securities and beneficial interests in a Global Security of the kinds specified in this Section 306(b) shall be made only in accordance with this Section 306(b).

(i) Restricted Global Security to Regulation S Global Security. If the owner of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security wishes at any time to transfer such interest to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security of the same series, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of this Clause (b)(i) and Clause (b)(vii) below and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, of (A) an order given by the Depositary or its authorized representative directing that a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security in a specified principal amount be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account and that a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security in an equal principal amount be debited from another specified Agent Member’s account and (B) a Regulation S Certificate, satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by the owner of such beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security or his attorney duly authorized in writing, then the Trustee, as Security Registrar but subject to Clause (b)(vii) below, shall reduce the principal amount of the Restricted Global Security and increase the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Security by such specified principal amount as provided in Section 305(c).

(ii) Regulation S Global Security to Restricted Global Security. If the owner of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security wishes at any time to transfer such interest to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security of the same series, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with this Clause (b)(ii) and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, of (A) an order given by the Depositary or its authorized representative directing that a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security in a specified principal amount be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account and that a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security in an equal principal amount be debited from another specified Agent Member’s account and (B) if such transfer is to occur during the Restricted Period, a Restricted

Securities Certificate, satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by the owner of such beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security or his attorney duly authorized in writing, then the Trustee, as Security Registrar, shall reduce the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Security and increase the principal amount of the Restricted Global Security by such specified principal amount as provided in Section 305(c).

(iii) Restricted Non-Global Security to Restricted Global Security or Regulation S Global Security. If the Holder of a Restricted Security (other than a Global Security) wishes at any time to transfer all or any portion of such Security to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security of the same series or the Regulation S Global Security of the same series, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of this Clause (b)(iii) and Clause (b)(vii) below and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, of (A) such Security as provided in Section 306(a) and instructions satisfactory to the Trustee directing that a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security or Regulation S Global Security in a specified principal amount not greater than the principal amount of such Security be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account and (B) a Restricted Securities Certificate, if the specified account is to be credited with a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security, or a Regulation S Certificate, if the specified account is to be credited with a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security, in either case satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by such Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing, then the Trustee, as Security Registrar but subject to Clause (b)(vii) below, shall cancel such Security (and issue a new Security of the same series in respect of any untransferred portion thereof) as provided in Section 306(a) and increase the principal amount of the Restricted Global Security or the Regulation S Global Security, as the case may be, by the specified principal amount as provided in Section 305(c).

(iv) Regulation S Non-Global Security to Restricted Global Security or Regulation S Global Security. If the Holder of a Regulation S Security (other than a Global Security) wishes at any time to transfer all or any portion of such Security to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security of the same series or the Regulation S Global Security of the same series, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with this Clause (b)(iv) and Clause (b)(vii) below and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, of (A) such Security as provided in Section 306(a) and instructions satisfactory to the Trustee directing that a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security or Regulation S Global Security in a specified principal amount not greater than the principal amount of such Security be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account and (B) if the transfer is to occur during the Restricted Period and the specified account is to be credited with a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security, a Restricted Securities Certificate satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by such Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing, then the Trustee, as Security Registrar but subject to Clause (b)(vii) below, shall cancel such Security (and issue a new Security of the same series in respect of any untransferred portion thereof) as provided in Section 306(a) and increase the principal amount of the Restricted Global Security or the

Regulation S Global Security, as the case may be, by the specified principal amount as provided in Section 305(c).

(v) Non-Global Security to Non-Global Security. A Security that is not a Global Security may be transferred, in whole or in part, to a Person who takes delivery in the form of another Security of the same series that is not a Global Security as provided in Section 3.06(a), provided that, if the Security to be transferred in whole or in part is a Restricted Security, or is a Regulation S Security and the transfer is to occur during the Restricted Period, then the Trustee shall have received (A) a Restricted Securities Certificate, satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by the transferor Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing, in which case the transferee Holder shall take delivery in the form of a Restricted Security of the same series, or (B) a Regulation S Certificate, satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by the transferor Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing, in which case the transferee Holder shall take delivery in the form of a Regulation S Security of the same series (subject in each case to Section 306(c)).

(vi) Exchanges between Global Security and Non-Global Security. A beneficial interest in a Global Security may be exchanged for a Security of the same series that is not a Global Security as provided in Section 305, provided that, if such interest is a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security, or if such interest is a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security and such exchange is to occur during the Restricted Period, then such interest shall be exchanged for a Restricted Security of the same series (subject in each case to Section 306(c)). A Security that is not a Global Security may be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Security of the same series only if (A) such exchange occurs in connection with a transfer effected in accordance with Clause (b)(iii) or (iv) above or (B) such Security is a Regulation S Security and such exchange occurs after the Restricted Period.

(vii) [Reserved]

(viii) Miscellaneous. The Trustee shall have no obligations or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Agent Members or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements thereof.

(c) Securities Act Legends. Rule 144A Securities, Other Securities and their respective successor securities shall bear a Restricted Securities Legend, and Initial Regulation S Securities and their successor securities shall bear a Regulation S Legend, subject to the following:

(i) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 306(c), a Security or any portion thereof which is exchanged, upon transfer or otherwise, for a Global Security of

the same series or any portion thereof shall bear the Securities Act Legend borne by such Global Security while represented thereby;

(ii) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 306(c), a new Security which is not a Global Security and is issued in exchange for another Security of the same series (including a Global Security) or any portion thereof, upon transfer or otherwise, shall bear the Securities Act Legend borne by such other Security, provided that, if such new Security is required pursuant to Section 306(b)(v) or (vi) to be issued in the form of a Restricted Security, it shall bear a Restricted Securities Legend and, if such new Security is so required to be issued in the form of a Regulation S Security, it shall bear a Regulation S Legend;

(iii) Registered Securities shall not bear a Securities Act Legend;

(iv) at any time after the Securities may be freely transferred without registration under the Securities Act or without being subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to the Securities Act, a new Security which does not bear a Securities Act Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Security of the same series (other than a Global Security) or any portion thereof which bears such a legend if the Trustee has received an Unrestricted Securities Certificate, satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by the Holder of such legended Security or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and after such date and receipt of such certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such a new Security in exchange for or in lieu of such other Security as provided in this Article Three;

(v) a new Security which does not bear a Securities Act Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Security of the same series (other than a Global Security) or any portion thereof which bears such a legend if, in the Company’s judgment, placing such a legend upon such new Security is not necessary to ensure compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and the Trustee, at the written direction of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver such a new Security as provided in this Article Three; and

(vi) notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 306(c), a successor security of a Security that does not bear a particular form of Securities Act Legend shall not bear such form of legend unless the Company has reasonable cause to believe that such successor security is a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144, in which case the Trustee, at the direction of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver a new Security bearing a Restricted Securities Legend in exchange for such successor security as provided in this Article Three.

SECTION 307. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them, any Subsidiary Guarantor and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

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

SECTION 308. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of the applicable series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money

equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each Holder of such series of Securities in the manner provided in Section 106, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the applicable series of Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security of the same series shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 309. Persons Deemed Owners.

Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 308) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 310. Cancellation.

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company

may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with the Trustee’s customary procedures.

SECTION 311. Computation of Interest.

Interest on each series of Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months provided, however, that any overdue interest and interest on overdue interest on any Securities, shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be, and the number of days actually elapsed during the relevant period.

SECTION 312. CUSIP Numbers.

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

SECTION 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or (7) that occurs with respect to the Company) occurs with respect to any series of Securities and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series may declare the principal of all the Securities of such series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal and any accrued interest shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or (7) involving the Company occurs, the principal of and any accrued interest on the Securities then Outstanding shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as

hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if

(1) the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

(a) all overdue interest on all Securities of such series,

(b) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of such series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and any interest thereon at the rate provided therefor in such series of Securities,

(c) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate provided therefor in such series of Securities, and

(d) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel;

and

(2) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of such series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

The Company covenants that if

(1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate provided therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, 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.

If an Event of Default with respect to any series of Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the

rights of the Holders of such series of Securities by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

SECTION 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or its creditors or of any Subsidiary Guarantor or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions, including participation as a member, voting or otherwise, of any committee of creditors, which would be authorized under the Trust Indenture Act (as if such Act applied) in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official 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 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 607.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture 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 Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities or any Subsidiary Guarantee may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the series of Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 506. Application of Money Collected.

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607;

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the series of Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and

THIRD: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company, its successors or assigns, or to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

SECTION 507. Limitation on Suits.

No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

(1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to such series of Security;

(2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

(5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Securities of the same series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders of Securities of the same series or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders of Securities of the same series.

SECTION 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security of any series shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the

principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 308) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the written consent of such Holder.

SECTION 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 307, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

SECTION 512. Control by Holders.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that

(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and

(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 513. Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of the same series waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default

(1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series, or

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the written consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected.

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.

SECTION 514. Undertaking for Costs.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs, including legal fees and expenses, against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act (as if such Act applied); provided that this Section shall not be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee or any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the applicable series of Securities or in any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series on or after the respective Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

SECTION 515. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE SIX

The Trustee

SECTION 601. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act (as if such Act applied). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

SECTION 602. Notice of Defaults.

Subject to the provisions of Section 603(i), the Trustee shall give the Holders of any series of Securities so affected notice of any default hereunder as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act (as if such Act applied); provided, however, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 501(4), no such notice to such Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default.

SECTION 603. Certain Rights of Trustee.

Subject to the provisions of Section 601:

(a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

(b) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution;

(e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;

(f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney upon reasonable notice during normal business hours;

(g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder;

(h) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

(i) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any default or Event of Default unless a responsible officer (with direct responsibility for the administration of this Indenture) of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture; and

(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 604. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

The recitals contained herein and in both series of Securities and in any Subsidiary Guarantee, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor as the case may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture, either series of Securities or any Subsidiary Guarantees. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of either series of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 605. May Hold Securities.

The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of either series of Securities and, subject to Sections 608 and 613, may otherwise deal with the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor and any other obligor upon the Securities of such series of Securities and any Subsidiary Guarantees with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

SECTION 606. Money Held in Trust.

Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be.

SECTION 607. Compensation and Reimbursement.

The Company agrees

(1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed in writing between the Company and the Trustee for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

(2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its gross negligence or bad faith; and

(3) to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense, including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, a Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

The Trustee shall have a lien prior to both series of Securities as to all property and funds held by it hereunder for any amount owing it or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to this Section 607, except with respect to funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or Section 501(7), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Indenture.

SECTION 608. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests.

If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, this Indenture.

SECTION 609. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and has its Corporate Trust Office located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

SECTION 610. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

(a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 611.

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all of the Outstanding Securities of both series (voting as a single class), delivered to the Trustee and the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of removal, the Trustee being removed may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor.

(d) If at any time:

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 608 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of either series for at least six months, or

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or

(3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee, or (ii) subject to Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of either class for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all of the Outstanding Securities of both series (voting as a single class) delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or the such Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of either series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in Section 106. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

SECTION 611. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on written request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all

property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.

SECTION 612. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

SECTION 613. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities or any Subsidiary Guarantee, the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act (as if such Act applied) regarding the collection of claims against the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any such other obligor.

SECTION 614. Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer, partial redemption or pursuant to Section 307, and Securities so authenticated, shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if such Securities had been authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and

surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and the Company.

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure so to act.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property laws, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security 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 Company Request, or (if then held by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general 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 a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, 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 publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities of such series to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of such series of Securities of a denomination larger than $1,000.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and each Security Registrar in writing of the Securities of such series selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 1106. Deposit of Redemption Price.

Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor is acting as the Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

SECTION 1107. Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the redemption price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 308.

For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that (a) 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 Section, Clause or Article, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section, Clause or Article or by reason of any reference in any such Section, Clause or Article to any other provision herein or in any other document and (b) any Subsidiary Guarantors shall be released from all of their obligations under their Subsidiary Guarantees; but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

SECTION 1204. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1202 or Section 1203 to the then Outstanding Securities of any series:

(1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 609, who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Twelve applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such series of Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of, and premium, if any, and each installment of interest on such Securities on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of interest in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities.

(2) In the case of an election under Section 1202, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of independent counsel stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred.

(3) In the case of an election under Section 1203, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and covenant defeasance and will be subject to

Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance had not occurred.

(4) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such series of Securities, if then listed on any securities exchange or approved for trading in any automated quotation system, will not be delisted or disapproved for such trading as a result of such deposit.

(5) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as subsections 501(6) and (7) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

(6) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act (assuming all Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act).

(7) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

(8) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the defeasance under Section 1202 or the covenant defeasance under Section 1203 (as the case may be) have been complied with.

(9) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in the Trustee or the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended from time to time, or such trust shall be qualified under such act or exempt from regulation thereunder and the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to that effect.

SECTION 1205.

Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee—collectively, for purposes of this Section 1205, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1204 in respect of the Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor acting as the Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and 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 U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1204 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 Securities.

Anything in this Article Twelve to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request and be relieved of all liability with respect to any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1204 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance.

SECTION 1206. Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 1202 or 1203 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 Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article Twelve until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 1202 or 1203; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent.

ARTICLE THIRTEEN

Subsidiary Guarantee

SECTION 1301. [Reserved].

SECTION 1302. Subsidiary Guarantors.

If any Subsidiary of the Company shall become a subsidiary guarantor under, and as such term is defined in, the Credit Agreements, the Company shall cause such Subsidiary concurrently to become a Subsidiary Guarantor by executing and delivering to the Trustee (a) a Subsidiary Guarantee substantially in the form established pursuant to Annex D hereof and (b) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Subsidiary Guarantee has been duly authorized and executed by such Person and constitutes the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Person (subject to customary exceptions concerning creditors’ rights and equitable principles). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in no event shall a Foreign Subsidiary become a Subsidiary Guarantor.

A Subsidiary Guarantee shall be executed by manual signature on behalf of each respective Subsidiary Guarantor by any one of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Chairman of the Board of Directors, Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, President or Chief Financial Officer or Vice Presidents, attested by its Secretary or Assistant Secretary.

A Subsidiary Guarantee bearing the manual signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of a Subsidiary Guarantor shall bind such Subsidiary Guarantor, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the execution and delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee or did not hold such offices at the date of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

SECTION 1303. Subsidiary Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc., on Certain Terms.

Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent any consolidation or merger of any Subsidiary Guarantor with or into the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of any Subsidiary Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor.

SECTION 1304. Release of Subsidiary Guarantors.

If a Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a subsidiary guarantor under, and as such term is defined in, the Credit Agreements, and if the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate certifying to that effect as of the date of such Officers’ Certificate, then automatically, without the requirement of any further action by the Company, such Subsidiary or the Trustee, such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and shall have no further obligation or liability under its Subsidiary Guarantee. The Trustee shall, at the Company’s expense, execute and deliver such instruments as the Company may reasonably request to evidence such termination.

This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.

ANNEX D — Form of Subsidiary
Guarantee

Form of Subsidiary Guarantee

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

For value received, the Subsidiary Guarantor named below, as of the date hereof, hereby unconditionally guarantees to the Holders of the [5⁵/₈% Senior Notes due 2013] [6⁷/₈% Senior Notes due 2033] (the “Securities”), issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of July 1, 2003 between Sealed Air Corporation (the “Company”) and SunTrust Bank, as Trustee (the “Indenture”), for the benefit of whom this Subsidiary Guarantee is executed and delivered, and to the Trustee on behalf of such Holders, the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Securities when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption, or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of the Indenture referred to therein. In case of the failure of the Company punctually to make any such payment, the Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees to cause such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by acceleration, call for redemption, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company.

The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of such Security or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any creation, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on any collateral for, or any release or amendment or waiver of any term of any other guarantee of, or any consent to departure from any requirement of any other guarantee of, all or of any of the Securities, the election by the Trustee or any of the Holders in any proceeding under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Company, as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of the claims of the Trustee or any of the Holders for payment of any of the Securities, any waiver or consent by the Holder of such Security or by the Trustee or either of them with respect to any provisions thereof or of the Indenture, the obtaining of any judgment against the Company or any action to enforce the same or any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, any requirement that the Trustee or any of the Holders protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest in or other Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Company or any other Person or any collateral, 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 or notice with respect to such Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Subsidiary Guarantee will not be discharged, while it remains a Subsidiary Guarantor, except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Security and in this Subsidiary Guarantee. The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that, in the event of a default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest on such Security, whether at their Stated Maturity, by

D-1

acceleration, call for redemption, or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, directly against the Subsidiary Guarantor to enforce this Subsidiary Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company. The Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective rights to accelerate the maturity of the Securities, to collect interest on the Securities, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to pay to the Trustee for the account of the Holders, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any of the Holders.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Subsidiary Guarantee or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the Subsidiary Guarantee of the Subsidiary Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, of the due and punctual payment of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities.

The Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holders of the Securities against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by the Subsidiary Guarantor on account of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Subsidiary Guarantee; provided, however, that the Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on all of the Securities issued under the Indenture shall have been paid in full.

This Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company 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 assets.

The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder are limited to the maximum amount that would cause the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor under this Subsidiary Guarantee not to constitute a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Federal or State law, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including, without limitation, any guarantees under the Credit Agreements) and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations set forth in the following paragraph. To the fullest extent permitted by law, this Subsidiary Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Securities is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Securities, 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 Securities 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.

D-2

To the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required to pay any amounts on account of the Securities pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee in excess of the greater of (i) the amount of the economic benefit actually received by such Subsidiary Guarantor from the issuance of the Securities and (ii) an amount calculated as the product of (A) the aggregate amount payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors on account of the Securities pursuant to the Subsidiary Guarantees times (B) the proportion (expressed as a fraction) that such Subsidiary Guarantor’s net worth at the date enforcement of the Subsidiary Guarantees is sought bears to the aggregate net worth of all Subsidiary Guarantors at such date, then such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be reimbursed by the other Subsidiary Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based upon the respective net worth of such other Subsidiary Guarantors at the date enforcement of the Subsidiary Guarantees is sought. This paragraph is intended only to define the relative rights of Subsidiary Guarantors as among themselves, and nothing set forth in this paragraph is intended to or shall impair the joint and several obligations of Subsidiary Guarantors under their respective Subsidiary Guarantees.

The Subsidiary Guarantor shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this Subsidiary Guarantee.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Subsidiary Guarantee or the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from this Subsidiary Guarantee if and when it ceases to be a subsidiary guarantor under, and as such term is defined in, the Credit Agreements, as provided in the Indenture.

No stockholder, officer, director, employer or incorporator, past, present or future, of the Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, shall have any personal liability under any Subsidiary Guarantee by reason of his, her or its status as such stockholder, officer, director, employer or incorporator.

All terms used in this Subsidiary Guarantee shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

This Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until delivered to the Trustee.

THIS SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

D-3

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Subsidiary Guarantor has caused this Subsidiary Guarantee to be duly executed.

If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this

paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106.

With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

SECTION 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

SECTION 113. Confidentiality.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other written or oral understanding or agreement among the parties, the parties (and each employee, representative, or other agent of the parties) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and any facts that may be relevant to the tax structure of the transactions (and any related transactions or arrangement) contemplated hereby, provided, however, that no party (and no employee, representative, or other agent thereof) shall disclose any other information that is not relevant to understanding the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the identity of any party and any information that could lead another to determine the identity of any party), or any other information to the extent that such disclosure could reasonably result in a violation of any federal or state securities law.

SECTION 203. Form of Reverse of Security.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company designated as its 3% Convertible Senior Notes due 2033 (herein called the “Securities”) issued under an Indenture, dated as of July 1, 2003 (herein called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and the Trustee, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture). The aggregate principal amount of the Securities shall not exceed $431,250,000. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the obligations of the Company under the Indenture and this Security are, under certain circumstances provided in the Indenture, required to be guaranteed pursuant to Subsidiary Guarantees with respect to the payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities. Each Holder, by holding this Security, agrees to all of the terms and provisions of any such Subsidiary Guarantees. Each Subsidiary Guarantee issued pursuant to the terms of the Indenture shall provide that the Subsidiary Guarantor party thereto shall be released from its obligations under such Subsidiary Guarantee if it is no longer a subsidiary guarantor under, and as such term is defined in, the Credit Agreements and upon delivery to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate certifying to that effect. On the Issue Date, no Subsidiaries of the Company shall be required to provide Subsidiary Guarantees.

At any time on or after July 2, 2007 and prior to maturity, the Securities may be redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, upon mailing a notice of such redemption not less than 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to the Holders of Securities at their last registered addresses, all as provided in the Indenture, at the Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of the Securities) set forth below, together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date;

provided that if the Redemption Date is on an Interest Payment Date, then the interest payable on such date shall be paid to the holder of record on the preceding Regular Record Date:

Year	Percentages
On July 2, 2007 through June 29, 2008	101.286	%

On June 30, 2008 through June 29, 2009	100.857	%

On June 30, 2009 through June 29, 2010	100.429	%

On June 30, 2010 and thereafter	100.000	%

The Company may not give notice of any redemption of the Securities if a default in the payment of interest, or premium, if any, on the Securities has occurred and is continuing.

The Securities are not subject to redemption through the operation of any sinking fund.

If a Designated Event occurs at any time prior to maturity of the Securities, this Security will be redeemable on a Designated Event Redemption Date, 30 days after notice thereof, at the option of the Holder of this Security at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest to (but excluding) the Redemption Date; provided that if such Designated Event Redemption Date is an Interest Payment Date, the interest payable on such date shall be paid to the holder of record of this Security on the preceding Regular Record Date, respectively. The Securities will be redeemable in multiples of $1,000 principal amount. The Company shall mail to all Holders of the Securities a notice of the occurrence of a Designated Event and of the redemption right arising as a result thereof on or before the 10th day after the occurrence of such Designated Event. For a Security to be so redeemed at the option of the Holder, the Company must receive at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, such Security with the form entitled “Option to Elect Redemption Upon a Designated Event” on the reverse thereof duly completed, together with such Security, duly endorsed for transfer, on or before the 30th day after the date of such notice of a Designated Event (or if such 30th day is not a Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day). Holders have the right to withdraw any surrendered Securities prior to such 30^th day.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase, at the option of the Holder, all or any portion of the Securities held by such Holder on June 30, 2010, June 30, 2013, June 30, 2018, June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2028, in whole multiples of $1,000 at a purchase price of 100% of the principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, on such Security to (but excluding) the Repurchase Date. To exercise such right, a Holder shall deliver to the Company such Security with the form entitled “Repurchase Notice” on the reverse thereof duly completed, together with the Security, duly endorsed for transfer, at any time from the opening of business on the date that is 20 Business Days prior to such Repurchase Date until the close of business on such Repurchase Date, and shall deliver the Securities to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) as set forth in the Indenture.

Holders have the right to withdraw any Repurchase Notice by delivering to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) a written notice of withdrawal up to the close of business on the Repurchase Date, all as provided in the Indenture.

If cash sufficient to pay the purchase price of all Securities or portions thereof to be purchased as of the Repurchase Date is deposited with the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company), on the Business Day following the Repurchase Date, interest will cease to accrue on such Securities (or portions thereof) immediately after such Repurchase Date, and the Holder thereof shall have no other rights as such other than the right to receive the purchase price upon surrender of such Security.

In the event of redemption or repurchase of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unredeemed or unrepurchased portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

Subject to the occurrence of certain events and in compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, to convert each $1,000 principal amount of the Securities into 14.2857 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. A Security in respect of which a Holder is exercising its right to require redemption upon a Designated Event or repurchase on a Repurchase Date may be converted only if such Holder withdraws its election to exercise either such right in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The Conversion Rate for the Securities on any Conversion Date shall be determined as set forth in the Indenture. The Company shall deliver cash or a check in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock.

The Company shall deliver to the Holder through the Conversion Agent, no later than the third Business Day following the Conversion Date, a certificate for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion and, if applicable, cash in lieu of any fractional shares.

A Holder may convert a portion of a Security if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends on the Common Stock except as provided in the Indenture. On conversion of a Security, except for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, in which case the Holder on such Regular Record Date shall receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date, that portion of accrued and unpaid interest on the converted Security attributable to the period from the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if no Interest Payment Date has occurred, from the Issue Date) through the Conversion Date shall not be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited, but rather shall be deemed to be paid in full to the Holder thereof through delivery of the Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) in exchange for the Security being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof.

House funds or other funds acceptable to the Company, of an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date with respect to the principal amount of Securities or portions thereof being surrendered for conversion; provided that no such payment need be made if (1) the Company has specified a Redemption Date that occurs during the period from the close of business on a Regular Record Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, (2) the Company has specified a Designated Event Redemption Date during such period or (3) only to the extent of overdue interest, any overdue interest exists on the Conversion Date with respect to the Securities converted.

No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion; in lieu thereof, an amount will be paid in cash based upon the current market price of the Common Stock as provided in Section 1203 of the Indenture.

To convert a Security, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the conversion notice set forth below or a facsimile thereof and deliver such notice to a Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Security to the Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents (including any certification that may be required under applicable law) if required by the Conversion Agent, (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required and (e) if required, pay funds equal to the interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date.

The Conversion Rate will be adjusted as set forth in Article Twelve of the Indenture.

Any Securities called for redemption, unless surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof on or before the close of business on the Business Day preceding the redemption date, may be deemed to be redeemed from the Holders of such Securities for an amount equal to the applicable Redemption Price, together with accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption, by one or more investment banks or other purchasers who may agree with the Company (i) to purchase such Securities from the Holders thereof and convert them into shares of the Company’s Common Stock and (ii) to make payment for such Securities as aforesaid to the Trustee in trust for the Holders.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (which initially shall be the office of the Trustee located at SunTrust Bank c/o Computershare Trust Company of New York, Wall Street Plaza, 88 Pine Street, 19^th Floor, New York, New York 10005), duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

This Security shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of New York.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Upon the request of the Trustee in connection with the occurrence of any of the events specified in the preceding paragraph, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Securities that are not in the form of Global Securities. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon any order, direction or request of the Depositary or its authorized representative which is given or made pursuant to this Article Three if such order, direction or request is given or made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

(d) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Article Three, Section 905, or Section 1108 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Security will be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Agent Members.

SECTION 306. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally; Securities Act Legends.

(a) Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in

34 which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers and exchanges of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers and exchanges of Securities as herein provided.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture.

At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for new Securities of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company and any Subsidiary Guarantors, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, redemption, repurchase or conversion shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

The Company shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange (a) any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities selected for redemption under Section 1104 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, (b) any Securities or portions thereof called for redemption pursuant to Section 1105, except the unredeemed portion of any Securities being redeemed in part, (c) any Securities or portions thereof surrendered for conversion pursuant to Article Twelve, except the unconverted portion of any Securities surrendered for conversion in part, (d) any Securities or portions thereof tendered for redemption (and not withdrawn) pursuant to Section 1110 or (e) any Securities or portions thereof tendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) pursuant to Section 1111, except the unrepurchased portion of any Securities being repurchased in part.

(b) Securities Act Legend: Security. Every Security that bears or is required under this Section 306(b) to bear the legend set forth in this Section 306(b) (together with any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Securities and required to bear the legend set forth in Section 306(c), collectively, the “Restricted Securities”) shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 306(b) (including those set forth in the legend below) unless such restrictions on transfer shall be waived by written consent of the Company, and the Holder of each such Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. As used in Sections 306(b) and 306(c), the term “transfer” encompasses any sale, pledge, loan, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security or any interest therein.

Until the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales thereof under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision), any certificate evidencing such Security (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof, other than Common Stock, if any, issued upon conversion thereof, which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 306(c), if applicable) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form, unless such Security has been sold pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act (and which continues to be effective at the time of such transfer), or unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing, with written notice thereof to the Trustee:

THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE HOLDER (1) REPRESENTS THAT IT IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT); (2) AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT, PRIOR TO EXPIRATION OF THE HOLDING PERIOD APPLICABLE TO SALES OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY UNDER RULE 144(k) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION), RESELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY EXCEPT (A) TO SEALED AIR CORPORATION OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, (B) TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (C) PURSUANT TO THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (IF AVAILABLE) OR (D) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH HAS BEEN DECLARED EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (AND WHICH CONTINUES TO BE EFFECTIVE AT THE TIME OF SUCH TRANSFER); (3) PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (2)(D) ABOVE), IT WILL FURNISH TO SUNTRUST BANK, AS TRUSTEE (OR A SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE, AS APPLICABLE AND UPON THE COMPANY’S REQUEST, TO THE COMPANY), SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THE TRUSTEE AND THE COMPANY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT

SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT; AND (4) AGREES THAT IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THIS SECURITY IS TRANSFERRED A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND. THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON THE EARLIER OF THE TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (2)(D) ABOVE OR UPON ANY TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY UNDER RULE 144(k) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION). THE INDENTURE CONTAINS A PROVISION REQUIRING THE TRUSTEE TO REFUSE TO REGISTER ANY TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY IN VIOLATION OF THE FOREGOING RESTRICTION.

Any Security (or security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms or as to conditions for removal of the foregoing legend set forth therein have been satisfied may, upon surrender of such Security for exchange to the Security Registrar in accordance with the provisions of this Section 306, be exchanged for a new Security or Securities, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 306(b). If the Restricted Security surrendered for exchange is represented by a Global Security bearing the legend set forth in this Section 306(b), the principal amount of the legended Global Security shall be reduced by the appropriate principal amount and the principal amount of a Global Security without the legend set forth in this Section 306(b) shall be increased by an equal principal amount. If a Global Security without the legend set forth in this Section 306(b) is not then outstanding, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver an unlegended Global Security to the Depositary.

(c) Securities Act Legend: Common Stock. Until the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales thereof under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision), any stock certificate representing Common Stock issued upon conversion of any Security shall bear a legend in substantially the following form, unless such Common Stock has been sold pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act (and which continues to be effective at the time of such transfer) or such Common Stock has been issued upon conversion of Securities that have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing with written notice thereof to the transfer agent:

THE COMMON STOCK EVIDENCED HEREBY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. THE HOLDER HEREOF AGREES THAT, UNTIL THE EXPIRATION OF THE HOLDING PERIOD APPLICABLE TO SALES OF THE COMMON STOCK EVIDENCED HEREBY, UNDER RULE 144(k) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION), (1) IT WILL NOT RESELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THE COMMON STOCK EVIDENCED HEREBY EXCEPT (A) TO SEALED

AIR CORPORATION OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, (B) TO A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A, (C) PURSUANT TO THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (IF AVAILABLE) OR (D) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH HAS BEEN DECLARED EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (AND WHICH CONTINUES TO BE EFFECTIVE AT THE TIME OF SUCH TRANSFER); (2) PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (1)(D) ABOVE), IT WILL FURNISH TO MELLON INVESTOR SERVICES LLC, AS TRANSFER AGENT (OR A SUCCESSOR TRANSFER AGENT, AS APPLICABLE AND UPON THE COMPANY’S REQUEST, TO THE COMPANY), SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION AS SUCH TRANSFER AGENT MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT; AND (3) IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THE COMMON STOCK EVIDENCED HEREBY IS TRANSFERRED (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (1)(D) ABOVE) A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND. THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON THE EARLIER OF THE TRANSFER OF THE COMMON STOCK EVIDENCED HEREBY PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (1)(D) ABOVE OR UPON ANY TRANSFER OF THE COMMON STOCK EVIDENCED HEREBY AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE HOLDING PERIOD APPLICABLE TO SALES OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY UNDER RULE 144(k) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION).

Any such Common Stock as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms or as to which the conditions for removal of the foregoing legend set forth therein have been satisfied may, upon surrender of the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Stock, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like number of shares of Common Stock, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 306(c).

(d) Restricted Securities. Any Security or Common Stock issued upon the conversion of a Security that, prior to the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales thereof under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision), is purchased or owned by the Company or any Affiliate thereof may not be resold by the Company or such Affiliate unless registered under the Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction which results in such Securities or Common Stock, as the case may be, no longer being “restricted securities” (as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act).

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 306(b), (c) and (d), a successor security of any Security or Common Stock that does not bear a particular form of Restricted Securities Legend shall not bear such form of legend unless the Company has reasonable cause to believe that such successor security is a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144, in which case the Trustee, at the written direction of the Company, shall

authenticate and deliver a new Security or a new stock certificate representing Common Stock, as the case may be, bearing a Restricted Securities Legend in exchange for such successor security as provided in this Article Three.

SECTION 307. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them, any Subsidiary Guarantor and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable or has been called for redemption or has been tendered for redemption upon a Designated Event (and not withdrawn) or has been surrendered for repurchase on a Repurchase Date (and not withdrawn) or is to be converted into Common Stock, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security or authorize the payment of or convert or authorize the conversion of such Security (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Security), as the case may be.

SECTION 308. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

The Person in whose name any Security (or its Predecessor Security) is registered on the Security Register at the close of business on any Regular Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date, except that the interest payable upon redemption or repurchase will be payable to the Person to whom principal is payable pursuant to such redemption or repurchase (unless the Redemption Date or the Repurchase Date, as the case may be, is an Interest Payment Date, in which case the semi-annual payment of interest becoming due on such date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities registered as such on the applicable Regular Record Date).

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each Holder in the manner provided in Section 106, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

40

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 309. Persons Deemed Owners.

SECTION 310. Cancellation.

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, repurchase, conversion, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with the Trustee’s customary procedures.

SECTION 311. Computation of Interest.

Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months provided, however, that any overdue interest and interest on overdue interest on any Securities, shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be, and the number of days actually elapsed during the relevant period.

$25,000,000, whether such Indebtedness now exists or is hereafter incurred, which default or defaults (i) shall have resulted in such Indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable or (ii) shall constitute the failure to pay all or any portion of such Indebtedness at the final stated maturity thereof (after expiration of any applicable grace period) and such default shall not have been rescinded or such Indebtedness shall not have been discharged within 10 days; or

SECTION 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(7) or (8) that occurs with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding

Securities may declare the principal of all the Securities to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal and any accrued interest shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(7) or (8) involving the Company occurs, the principal of and any accrued interest on the Securities then Outstanding shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if

(1) the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

(a) all overdue interest on all Securities,

(b) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and any interest thereon at the rate provided in the Securities for overdue principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities (which shall include the 1.00% additional interest referred to therein),

(c) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate provided in the Securities for overdue principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities (which shall include the 1.00% additional interest referred to therein), and

(d) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel;

and

(2) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

The Company covenants that if

(1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

45 (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate provided therefor in the Securities (which shall include the 1.00% additional interest referred to therein) and, in addition thereto, 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.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

SECTION 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.

proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 506. Application of Money Collected.

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607;

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities and, to the extent that payment of such interest has been collected by the Trustee, interest upon overdue interest at the rate provided in the Securities for overdue principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities (which shall include the 1.00% additional interest referred to therein), in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and

SECTION 507. Limitation on Suits.

No Holder of any Security shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

(1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

47 (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

(5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders.

SECTION 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest and to Conversion.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 308) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption or repurchase, on the Redemption Date or Repurchase Date, as the case may be) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the written consent of such Holder.

Anything in this Indenture or the Securities to the contrary notwithstanding, the Holder of any Security, without the consent of either the Trustee or the holder of any other Security, in its own behalf and for its own benefit, may enforce, and may institute and maintain any proceeding suitable to enforce, its rights of conversion as provided herein.

(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and

(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 513. Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default

(1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security, or

(2) as a result of a failure by the Company to convert any Securities into Common Stock, or

(3) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the written consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected.

SECTION 514. Undertaking for Costs.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs, including legal fees and expenses, against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act (as if such Act applied); provided that this Section shall not be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee or any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities or in any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption or repurchase, on or after the Redemption Date or Repurchase Date, as the case may be).

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, unless converted into Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest and, after the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, such Securities shall cease to be convertible into Common Stock. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to their terms and the provisions of Section 308.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not redeem any Securities or mail any notice of redemption during the continuance of a default in payment of interest or premium, if any, on the Securities. If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate equal to 1.00% per annum plus the rate borne by the Security (without duplication of the 1.00% increase provided for under Section 503 hereof) and such Security shall remain convertible into Common Stock until the principal and premium, if any, and interest shall have been paid or duly provided for.

SECTION 1108. Securities Redeemed in Part.

in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities (each with, if applicable, a Subsidiary Guarantee of each Subsidiary Guarantor executed by such Subsidiary Guarantor), of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

SECTION 1109. Conversion Arrangement on Call for Redemption.

In connection with any redemption of Securities, the Company may arrange for the purchase and conversion of any Securities by an agreement with one or more investment banks or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to the Trustee in trust for the Holders, on or before the Redemption Date, an amount not less than the applicable Redemption Price, together with interest accrued to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, of such Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article Eleven, the obligation of the Company to pay the Redemption Price of such Securities, together with interest accrued to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such purchasers. If such an agreement is entered into, a copy of which will be filed with the Trustee prior to the Redemption Date, any Securities not duly surrendered for conversion by the holders thereof may, at the option of the Company, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, acquired by such purchasers from such holders and (notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article Twelve) surrendered by such purchasers for conversion, all as of immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date (and the right to convert any such Securities shall be extended through such time), subject to payment of the above amount as aforesaid. At the direction of the Company, the Trustee shall hold and dispose of any such amount paid to it in the same manner as it would monies deposited with it by the Company for the redemption of Securities. Without the Trustee’s prior written consent, no arrangement between the Company and such purchasers for the purchase and conversion of any Securities shall increase or otherwise affect any of the powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations of the Trustee as set forth in this Indenture.

SECTION 1110. Redemption at Option of Holders Upon a Designated Event.

(a) If there shall occur a Designated Event at any time prior to maturity of the Securities, then each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to redeem all of such Holder’s Securities, or any portion thereof that is a multiple of $1,000 principal amount, on the date (the “Designated Event Redemption Date”) that is thirty (30) days after the date of the Designated Event Notice (as defined in Section 1110(b)) of such Designated Event (or, if such 30th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest to, but excluding, the Designated Event Redemption Date; provided that if such Designated Event Redemption Date is an Interest Payment Date, then the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Holders of record of the Securities on the applicable Regular Record Date instead of the Holders surrendering the Securities for redemption on such date.

Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and, upon the Company’s written direction to the Trustee, the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Securities presented.

(b) On or before the tenth day after the occurrence of a Designated Event, the Company or at its written request (which must be received by the Trustee at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date the Trustee is requested to give notice as described below, unless the Trustee shall agree in writing to a shorter period), the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall mail or cause to be mailed to all holders of record on the date of the Designated Event a notice (the “Designated Event Notice”) of the occurrence of such Designated Event and of the redemption right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. If the Company shall give such notice, the Company shall also deliver a copy of the Designated Event Notice to the Trustee at such time as it is mailed to Holders. Concurrently with the mailing of any Designated Event Notice, the Company shall issue a press release announcing such Designated Event referred to in the Designated Event Notice, the form and content of which press release shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion. The failure to issue any such press release or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the Designated Event Notice or any proceedings for the redemption of any Security which any Holder may elect to have the Company redeem as provided in this Section 1110.

Each Designated Event Notice shall specify the circumstances constituting the Designated Event, the Designated Event Redemption Date, the price at which the Company shall be obligated to redeem Securities, that the holder must exercise the redemption right on or prior to the close of business on the Designated Event Redemption Date (the “Designated Event Expiration Time”), that the holder shall have the right to withdraw any Securities surrendered prior to the Designated Event Expiration Time, a description of the procedure which a Holder must follow to exercise such redemption right and to withdraw any surrendered Securities, the place or places where the holder is to surrender such holder’s Securities, the amount of interest accrued on each Security to (but excluding) the Designated Event Redemption Date and the CUSIP number or numbers of the Securities (if then generally in use).

No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ redemption rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Securities pursuant to this Section 1110.

(c) For a Security to be so redeemed at the option of the holder, the Company must receive at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose pursuant to Section 1002, such Security with the form entitled “Option to Elect Redemption Upon A Designated Event” on the reverse thereof duly completed, together with such Securities duly endorsed for transfer, on or before the Designated Event Expiration Time. All questions as to the validity, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of any Security for redemption shall be determined by the Company, whose determination shall be final and binding absent manifest error.

72 (d) Prior to 10:00 am (New York City Time) on the Business Day following the Designated Event Redemption Date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or, if the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor is acting as the Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the Designated Event Redemption Date all the Securities to be redeemed on such date at the appropriate Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to, but excluding, the Designated Event Redemption Date. Payment for Securities surrendered for redemption (and not withdrawn) prior to the Designated Event Expiration Time will be made promptly (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days) following the Designated Event Redemption Date by mailing checks for the amount payable to the holders of such Securities entitled thereto as they shall appear in the Security Register.

(e) In the case of a reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance to which Section 1206 applies, in which the Common Stock of the Company is changed or exchanged as a result into the right to receive stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash), which includes shares of Common Stock of the Company or shares of common stock of another Person that are, or upon issuance will be, traded on a United States national securities exchange or approved for trading on an established automated over-the-counter trading market in the United States and such shares constitute at the time such change or exchange becomes effective in excess of 50% of the aggregate fair market value of such stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash) (as determined by the Company, which determination shall be conclusive and binding), then the Person formed by such consolidation or resulting from such merger or which acquires such assets, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture (accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel that such supplemental indenture complies with this Indenture) modifying the provisions of this Indenture relating to the right of holders of the Securities to cause the Company to repurchase the Securities following a Designated Event, including without limitation the applicable provisions of this Section 1110 and the definitions of Common Stock and Designated Event, as appropriate, as determined in good faith by the Company (which determination shall be conclusive and binding), to make such provisions apply to such other Person if different from the Company and the common stock issued by such Person (in lieu of the Company and the Common Stock of the Company).

(f) The Company will comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act to the extent then applicable in connection with the redemption rights of the holders of Securities in the event of a Designated Event.

SECTION 1111. Repurchase of Securities by the Company at Option of Holder.

Securities shall be purchased by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Securities at the option of the holder on June 30, 2010, June 30, 2013, June 30, 2018, June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2028 (each, a “Repurchase Date”), at a purchase price of 100% of the principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, in each case, to, but excluding, such Repurchase Date, subject to the provisions of Section 1112. Repurchases of Securities under this Section 1111 shall be made, at the option of the holder thereof, upon:

(a) delivery to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) by a holder of a duly completed Repurchase Notice (a “Repurchase Notice”) in the form set forth on the reverse of the Security during the period beginning at any time from the opening of business on the date that is 20 Business Days prior to the applicable Repurchase Date until the close of business on such Repurchase Date; and

(b) delivery or book-entry transfer of the Securities to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) at any time after delivery of the applicable Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company), such delivery being a condition to receipt by the holder of the purchase price therefor; provided that such purchase price shall be so paid pursuant to this Section 1111 only if the Security so delivered to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) shall conform in all respects to the description thereof in the related Repurchase Notice.

The Company shall purchase from the holder thereof, pursuant to this Section 1111, a portion of a Security, if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a Security also apply to the purchase of such portion of such Security.

Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1111 shall be consummated by the delivery of the consideration to be received by the holder promptly following the later of the Repurchase Date and the time of the book-entry transfer or delivery of the Security.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any holder delivering to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) the Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 1111 shall have the right to withdraw such Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) in accordance with Section 1113.

The Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Repurchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof.

SECTION 1112. Procedures for the Repurchase of Securities.

(a) At least three Business Days before each Company Repurchase Notice Date, the Company shall deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee specifying:

(i) the information required by Section 1112(c) in the Company Repurchase Notice, and

(ii) whether the Company desires the Trustee to give the Company Repurchase Notice required by Section 1112(c).

(b) The Company Repurchase Notice, as provided in Section 1112(c), shall be sent to holders not less than 20 Business Days prior to such Repurchase Date (the “Company Repurchase Notice Date”).

(c) In connection with any repurchase of Securities, the Company shall, no less than 20 Business Days prior to each Repurchase Date, give notice to holders (with a copy to the Trustee) setting forth information specified in this Section 1112(c) (the “Company Repurchase Notice”).

Each Company Repurchase Notice shall:

(1) state the repurchase price and the Repurchase Date to which the Company Repurchase Notice relates;

(2) include a form of Repurchase Notice;

(3) state the name and address of the Trustee (or other Paying Agent or Conversion Agent appointed by the Company);

(4) state that Securities must be surrendered to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) to collect the purchase price;

(5) if the Securities are then convertible, state that Securities as to which a Repurchase Notice has been given may be converted only if the Repurchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and

(6) state the CUSIP number of the Securities.

Company Repurchase Notices may be given by the Company or, at the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall give such Company Repurchase Notice in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense.

(d) The Company will comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act to the extent then applicable in connection with the repurchase rights of the holders of Securities.

SECTION 1113. Effect of Repurchase Notice.

Upon receipt by the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) of the Repurchase Notice specified in Section 1111, the holder of the Security in respect of which such Repurchase Notice was given shall (unless such Repurchase Notice is validly withdrawn) thereafter be entitled to receive solely the purchase price with respect to such Security. Such purchase price shall be paid to such holder, subject to receipt of funds and/or Securities by the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company), promptly following the later of (x) the Repurchase Date with respect to such Security (provided the holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 1111) and (y) the time of delivery of such Security to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) by the holder thereof in the manner required by Section 1111. Securities in respect of which a Repurchase Notice has been given by

the holder thereof may not be converted pursuant to Article Twelve hereof on or after the date of the delivery of such Repurchase Notice unless such Repurchase Notice has first been validly withdrawn.

A Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) in accordance with the Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the Repurchase Date, specifying:

(a) the certificate number, if any, of the Security in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, or the appropriate Depositary information if the Security in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted is represented by a Global Security,

(b) the principal amount of the Security with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and

(c) the principal amount, if any, of such Security which remains subject to the original Repurchase Notice and which has been or will be delivered for purchase by the Company.

SECTION 1114. Deposit of Purchase Price.

Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City Time, on the Business Day following the Repurchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or other Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor is acting as the Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on such Business Day) sufficient to pay the aggregate purchase price of all the Securities or portions thereof that are to be purchased as of the Repurchase Date.

SECTION 1115. Securities Repurchased in Part.

Upon presentation of any Security repurchased only in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unrepurchased portion of the Securities presented.

SECTION 1116. Repayment to the Company.

The Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) shall return to the Company any cash that remain unclaimed, together with interest, if any, thereon, held by them for the payment of the purchase price; provided that to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 1114 exceeds the aggregate purchase price of the Securities or portions thereof which the Company is obligated to purchase as of the Repurchase Date then, unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Company, promptly after the Business Day following the Repurchase Date, the Trustee shall return any such excess to the Company together with interest, if any, thereon.

ARTICLE TWELVE

Conversion of Securities

SECTION 1201. Right to Convert.

(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, the holder of any Security shall have the right, at such holder’s option, to convert the principal amount of the Security, or any portion of such principal amount which is a multiple of $1,000, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as such shares shall then be constituted) at the Conversion Rate in effect at such time, by surrender of the Security so to be converted in whole or in part, together with any required funds, in the manner provided in Section 1202. The Securities shall be convertible only upon the occurrence of one of the following events:

(i) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2003, if the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock exceeds 120% of the Conversion Price for at least 20 Trading Days in the 30 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter (it being understood for purposes of this Section 1201(a)(i) that the Conversion Price in effect at the close of business on each of the 30 consecutive Trading Days should be used);

(ii) during any period in which (1) the long-term credit rating assigned to the Securities by Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s is lower than “BB+” or “Ba2,” respectively, (2) either Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s no longer rates the Securities or has suspended or withdrawn the rating assigned to the Securities, or (3) the Securities are not assigned a rating by both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s; provided, however, the Securities may not be convertible pursuant to this Section 1201(a)(ii) until after the earlier of (a) the date the Securities are rated by both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s and (b) five Business Days from the Issue Date;

(iii) during the five Business Day period immediately after any five consecutive Trading Day period in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities for each day of such five day measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock on the applicable date and the Conversion Rate; provided, however, the Securities shall not be convertible pursuant to this Section 1201(a)(iii) after June 30, 2028 if on any Trading Day during such five day measurement period the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock was between 100% and 120% of the then current Conversion Price;

(iv) if such Security has been called for redemption, at any time on or after the date the notice of redemption has been given until the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date or, if earlier, the discharge of the Indenture under Section 401; or

(v) as provided in Section 1201(b).

The Trustee (or other Conversion Agent appointed by the Company) shall, on behalf of the Company, determine on a daily basis whether the Securities shall be convertible as a result of the occurrence of an event specified in clause (i) above and, if the Securities shall be convertible, the Trustee (or other Conversion Agent appointed by the Company) shall promptly deliver to the Company and the Trustee (if the Trustee is not the Conversion Agent) written notice thereof. Whenever the Securities shall become convertible pursuant to this Section 1201, the Company or, at the Company’s written request, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall notify the holders of the event triggering such convertibility in the manner provided in Section 106, and the Company shall also publicly announce such information and publish it on the Company’s web site. Any notice so given shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice.

The Trustee (or other Conversion Agent appointed by the Company) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price under this Section 1201 unless the Company has requested in writing such a determination; and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request unless a holder provides it with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities would be less than 98% of the product of the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock and the Conversion Rate. If such evidence is provided, the Company shall instruct the Trustee (or other Conversion Agent) in writing to determine the Trading Price of the Securities beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock and the Conversion Rate.

(b) In addition, if:

(i) (A) the Company distributes to all holders of its Common Stock rights or warrants entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days of the record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, at a price per share less than the average of the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock for the ten Trading Days immediately preceding, but not including, the date such distribution is first publicly announced by the Company, or (B) the Company distributes to all holders of its Common Stock, assets, debt securities or rights to purchase its securities, where the fair market value of such distribution per share of Common Stock exceeds 5% of the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date such distribution is first publicly announced by the Company, then, in either case, the Securities may be surrendered for conversion at any time on and after the date that the Company gives notice to the holders of such distribution, which shall be not less than 20 days prior to the Ex-Dividend Time for such distribution, until the earlier of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding, but not including, the Ex-Dividend Time or the date the Company publicly announces that such distribution will not take place; provided that no adjustment to the Conversion Price or the ability of a holder of a Security to convert will be made if the holder will otherwise participate in such distribution without conversion; or

(ii) the Company consolidates with or merges with or into another Person or is a party to a binding share exchange or conveys, transfers, sells, leases or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its properties and assets, then the Securities may be surrendered for conversion at any time from and after the date fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the transaction and ending on and including the date fifteen (15) days after the consummation of the transaction. The Board of Directors shall determine the anticipated effective date of the transaction, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the holders and shall be publicly announced by the Company and posted on its web site not later than two Business Day prior to such 15^th day. If the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger, binding share exchange or conveyance, transfer, sale, lease or other disposal of all or substantially all of its assets, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into cash, securities, or other property, then at the effective time of the transaction, a holder’s right to convert a Security into the Common Stock will be changed into a right to convert it into the kind and amount of cash, securities and other property which such holder would have received if such holder had converted such Securities immediately prior to the transaction.

“Ex-Dividend Time” means, with respect to any distribution on shares of Common Stock, the first date on which the Common Stock trades, regular way, on the principal securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded without the right to receive such distribution.

(c) A Security in respect of which a holder is electing to exercise its option to require redemption upon a Designated Event pursuant to Section 1110(a) or repurchase pursuant to Section 1111 may be converted only if such holder withdraws its election in accordance with Section 1110(b) or Section 1113, respectively. A holder of Securities is not entitled to any rights of a holder of Common Stock until such holder has converted his Securities to Common Stock, and only to the extent such Securities are deemed to have been converted to Common Stock under this Article Twelve.

SECTION 1202. Conversion Procedures.

To convert a Security, a holder must (a) complete and manually sign the Conversion Notice or a facsimile of the Conversion Notice (a “Conversion Notice”) in the form set forth on the reverse of the Security and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Security to the Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Security Registrar or the Conversion Agent, (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required and (e) if required, pay funds equal to the interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date. In the case of a Global Security, the Conversion Notice shall be completed by a DTC participant on behalf of the beneficial holder. The date, within the time periods set forth in Section 1201, on which the holder satisfies all of those requirements is the “Conversion Date.” The Company shall deliver to the holder through the Conversion Agent, no later than the third Business Day following the Conversion Date, a certificate for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion and, if applicable, cash in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Section 1203.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the case of Global Securities, Conversion Notices may be delivered and such Securities may be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary as in effect from time to time. The Person in whose name the Common Stock certificate is registered shall be deemed to be a stockholder of record at the close of business on the applicable Conversion Date; provided, however, that if any such date is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such Person shall be deemed a stockholder of record as of the next date on which the stock transfer books of the Company are open.

No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends on, or other distributions with respect to, any Common Stock except as provided in this Article. On conversion of a Security, except for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, in which case the holder on such Regular Record Date shall receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date, that portion of accrued and unpaid interest on the converted Security attributable to the period from the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if no Interest Payment Date has occurred, from the Issue Date) through the Conversion Date shall not be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited, but rather shall be deemed to be paid in full to the holder thereof through delivery of the Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) in exchange for the Security being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof, and the fair market value of such shares of Common Stock (together with any such cash payment in lieu of fractional shares) shall be treated as issued, to the extent thereof, first in exchange for accrued and unpaid interest accrued through the Conversion Date and the balance, if any, of such fair market value of such Common Stock (and any such cash payment) shall be treated as issued in exchange for the principal amount of the Security being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof.

If a holder converts more than one Security at the same time, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion shall be based on the aggregate principal amount of Securities converted.

Upon surrender of a Security that is converted in part, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the holder, a new Security equal in principal amount to the principal amount of the unconverted portion of the Security surrendered.

Securities or portions thereof surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date shall be accompanied by payment to the Company or its order, in New York Clearing House funds or other funds acceptable to the Company, of an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date with respect to the principal amount of Securities or portions thereof being surrendered for conversion; provided that no such payment need be made if (1) the Company has specified a Redemption Date that occurs during the period from the close of business on a Regular Record Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, (2) the Company has specified a Designated Event Redemption Date during such period or (3) only to

the extent of overdue interest, any overdue interest exists on the Conversion Date with respect to the Securities converted.

SECTION 1203. Cash Payment in lieu of Fractional Shares.

No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip certificates representing fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of Securities. If more than one Security shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full shares that shall be issuable upon conversion shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered. If any fractional share of stock would be issuable upon the conversion of any Security or Securities, the Company shall make an adjustment and payment therefor in cash at the current market price thereof to the holder of Securities. For purposes of this Section 1203, the “current market price” of a share of Common Stock shall be the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock on the last Business Day immediately preceding the day on which the Securities (or specified portions thereof) are deemed to have been converted.

SECTION 1204. Conversion Rate.

Each $1,000 principal amount of the Securities shall be convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the form of Security (herein called the “Conversion Rate”), subject to adjustment as provided in this Article Twelve.

SECTION 1205. Adjustment of Conversion Rate.

The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows:

(a) In case the Company shall hereafter pay a dividend or make a distribution to all holders of the outstanding Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the date following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution by a fraction,

(i) the numerator of which shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution plus the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such dividend or other distribution; and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination,

such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. For the purpose of this paragraph (a), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. If any dividend or distribution of

the type described in this Section 1205 is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its outstanding shares of Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within forty-five (45) days after the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the Average Market Price on the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants by a fraction,

(i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants plus the total number of additional shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants plus the number of shares that the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase at such Average Market Price.

Such adjustment shall be successively made whenever any such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Average Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.

(c) In case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased, and conversely, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes

effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, as the case may be, to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(d) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock shares of any class of capital stock of the Company or evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and securities, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in Section 1205(b), and excluding any dividend or distribution referred to in Section 1205(a)) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 1205(d) called the “Distribution”), then, in each such case (unless the Company elects to reserve such Distribution for distribution to the holders upon the conversion of the Securities so that any such holder converting Securities will receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, the amount and kind of such Distribution which such holder would have received if such holder had converted its Securities into Common Stock immediately prior to the Record Date), the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall be equal to the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect at the close of business on the Record Date with respect to such distribution by a fraction,

(i) the numerator of which shall be the Average Market Price on such Record Date; and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the Average Market Price on such Record Date less (A) in the case of Distributions other than cash, the Fair Market Value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) on the Record Date of the portion of such Distributions applicable to one share of Common Stock and (B) in the case of Distributions of cash, the amount of such Distributions applicable to one share of Common Stock,

such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following such Record Date; provided that if the then Fair Market Value (as so determined) of the portion of the Distribution so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Average Market Price on the Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion the amount of Distribution such holder would have received had such holder converted each Security on the Record Date. A holder who converts a Security pursuant to Section 1201(b) shall not be entitled to any adjustment to the Conversion Rate with respect to such Security so converted. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the Fair Market Value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 1205 by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Average Market Price on the applicable Record Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Distribution distributed by the Company to all holders of its Common Stock consists of capital stock of, or similar equity interests in, a Subsidiary or other business unit, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall

be equal to the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect on the Record Date with respect to such distribution by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the average Closing Sale Price of one share of Common Stock over the ten consecutive Trading Day period (the “Spinoff Valuation Period”) commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day after the date on which “ex-dividend trading” commences on the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange or such other national or regional exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted and (y) the average Closing Sale Price over the Spinoff Valuation Period of the portion of the Distribution so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock; and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the average Closing Sale Price of one share of Common Stock over the Spinoff Valuation Period,

such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following such Record Date; provided that the Company may in lieu of the foregoing adjustment make adequate provision so that each holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion the amount of Distribution such holder would have received had such holder converted each note on the Record Date with respect to such distribution.

Rights or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 1205 (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 1205 will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 1205. If any such right or warrant, including any such existing rights or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Indenture, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and record date with respect to new rights or warrants with such rights (and a termination or expiration of the existing rights or warrants without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 1205 was made, (1) in the case of any such rights or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or repurchase,

and (2) in the case of such rights or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued.

No adjustment of the Conversion Rate shall be made pursuant to this Section 1205 in respect of rights or warrants distributed or deemed distributed on any Trigger Event to the extent that such rights or warrants are actually distributed, or reserved by the Company for distribution, to holders of Securities upon conversion by such holders of Securities to Common Stock.

For purposes of this Section 1205(d) and 1205(a) and (b), any dividend or distribution to which this Section 1205(d) is applicable that also includes shares of Common Stock, or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock (or both), shall be deemed instead to be (1) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of indebtedness, assets or shares of capital stock other than such shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants (and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this Section 1205(d) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made) immediately followed by (2) a dividend or distribution of such shares of Common Stock or such rights or warrants (and any further Conversion Rate adjustment required by Sections 1205(a) and (b) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made), except

(A) the Record Date of such dividend or distribution shall be substituted as “the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution”, “the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants” and “the date fixed for such determination” within the meaning of Section 1205(a) and (b) and

(B) any shares of Common Stock included in such dividend or distribution shall not be deemed “outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination” within the meaning of Section 1205(a).

(e) In case a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and such tender or exchange offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall require the payment to stockholders of consideration per share of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) that as of the last time (the “Expiration Time”) tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended) exceeds the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Time by a fraction,

(i) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the Fair Market Value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate consideration payable to stockholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of all shares validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted up to any such maximum, being referred to as the

“Purchased Shares”) and (y) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time and the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time

such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. If the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made.

(f) For purposes of this Section 1205, the following terms shall have the meaning indicated:

(1) “Average Market Price” shall mean the average of the daily Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the earlier of such date of determination and the day before the “ex” date with respect to the issuance, distribution, subdivision or combination requiring such computation immediately prior to the date in question. For purpose of this paragraph, the term “ex” date, (1) when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades, regular way, on the relevant exchange or in the relevant market from which the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock was obtained without the right to receive such issuance or distribution, and (2) when used with respect to any subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades, regular way, on such exchange or in such market after the time at which such subdivision or combination becomes effective.

If another issuance, distribution, subdivision or combination to which Section 1205 applies occurs during the period applicable for calculating “Average Market Price” pursuant to the definition in the preceding paragraph, “Average Market Price” shall be calculated for such period in a manner determined by the Board of Directors to reflect the impact of such issuance, distribution, subdivision or combination on the Closing Sale Price of shares of Common Stock during such period.

(2) “Fair Market Value” shall mean the amount which a willing buyer would pay a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction.

(3) “Record Date” shall mean, with respect to any dividend, distribution or other transaction or event in which the holders of Common Stock have the right to receive any cash, securities or other property or in which the Common Stock (or other applicable security) is exchanged for or converted into any combination of cash,

securities or other property, the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such cash, securities or other property (whether such date is fixed by the Board of Directors or by statute, contract or otherwise).

(g) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, in addition to those required by Section 1205(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e), as the Board of Directors considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least twenty (20) days, the increase is irrevocable during the period and the Board of Directors shall have made a determination that such increase would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall mail to holders of record of the Securities a notice of the increase at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.

(h) No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) in such rate; provided that any adjustments that by reason of this Article Twelve are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Article Twelve shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000) of a share, as the case may be. No adjustment need be made for rights to purchase Common Stock pursuant to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends or interest. To the extent the Securities become convertible into cash, assets, property or securities (other than capital stock of the Company), no adjustment need be made thereafter as to the cash, assets, property or such securities. Interest will not accrue on any cash into which the Securities are convertible.

(i) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a responsible officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to the holder of each Security at his last address appearing on the Security Register provided for in Section 306 of this Indenture, within twenty (20) days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

(j) In any case in which this Section 1205 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after (1) the Record Date for an event, (2) the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive a dividend or distribution pursuant to Section 1205(a), (3) a date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive rights or warrants pursuant to Section 1205(b), or (4) the Expiration Time for any tender or exchange offer pursuant to Section 1205(e), (each a “Determination Date”), the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of the applicable Adjustment Event (as hereinafter defined) (x) issuing to the holder of any Security converted after such Determination Date and before the occurrence of such Adjustment Event, the additional shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such Adjustment Event over and above the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (y) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to Section 203. For purposes of this Section 1205(j), the term “Adjustment Event” shall mean:

(i) in any case referred to in clause (1) hereof, the occurrence of such event,

(ii) in any case referred to in clause (2) hereof, the date any such dividend or distribution is paid or made,

(ii) in any case referred to in clause (3) hereof, the date of expiration of such rights or warrants, and

(iv) in any case referred to in clause (4) hereof, the date a sale or exchange of Common Stock pursuant to such tender or exchange offer is consummated and becomes irrevocable.

(k) For purposes of this Section 1205, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.

SECTION 1206. Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.

If any of the following events occur, namely (i) any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a subdivision or combination to which Section 1205(c) applies), (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination of the Company with another Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, or (iii) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to any other Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, then the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that each Security shall be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance by a holder of a number of

shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Securities (assuming, for such purposes, a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock are available to convert all such Securities) immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance assuming such holder of Common Stock did not exercise his rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance (provided that, if the kind or amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance is not the same for each share of Common Stock in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (“nonelecting share”), then for the purposes of this Section 1206 the kind and amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance for each non-electing share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the non-electing shares). Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article Twelve.

The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each holder of Securities, at its address appearing on the Security Register provided for in Section 306 of this Indenture, within twenty (20) days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.

The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, combinations, sales and conveyances.

If this Section 1206 applies to any event or occurrence, Section 1205 shall not apply.

SECTION 1207. Taxes on Shares Issued.

The issue of stock certificates on conversions of Securities shall be made without charge to the converting holder for any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax in respect of the issue thereof. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any such tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of stock in any name other than that of the holder of any Security converted, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such stock certificate unless and until the Person or Persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

SECTION 1208. Reservation of Shares, Shares to be Fully Paid; Compliance with Governmental Requirements; Listing of Common Stock.

The Company shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for the conversion of the Securities from time to time as such Securities are presented for conversion.

Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment increasing the Conversion Rate to an amount that would cause the Conversion Price to be reduced below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities, the Company will take all corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue shares of such Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Rate.

The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon conversion of Securities will upon issue be fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

The Company covenants that, if any shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Securities hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be validly issued upon conversion, the Company will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission (or any successor thereto), endeavor to secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.

The Company further covenants that, if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or any other national securities exchange or automated quotation system, the Company will, if permitted by the rules of such exchange or automated quotation system, list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, all Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Security; provided that if the rules of such exchange or automated quotation system permit the Company to defer the listing of such Common Stock until the first conversion of the Securities into Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company covenants to list such Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities in accordance with the requirements of such exchange or automated quotation system at such time.

SECTION 1209. Responsibility of Trustee.

The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any holder of Securities to determine the Conversion Rate or whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Security; and the Trustee and any other Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article Twelve. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 1206

relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their Securities after any event referred to in such Section 1206 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of Section 601, may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officers’ Certificate (which the Company shall be obligated to file with the Trustee prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto.

SECTION 1210. Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions.

In case:

(a) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common Stock that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 1205; or

(b) the Company shall authorize the granting to the holders of all or substantially all of its Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any share of any class or any other rights or warrants; or

(c) of any reclassification or reorganization of the Common Stock of the Company (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding Common Stock, or a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value), or of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any stockholders of the Company is required, or of the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

(d) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee and to be mailed to each holder of Securities at his address appearing on the Security Register provided for in Section 106 of this Indenture, as promptly as possible but in any event at least ten (10) days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distribution or rights are to be determined, or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such dividend, distribution, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

SECTION 1211. Rights Issued in Respect of Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion.

Each share of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Securities pursuant to this Article Twelve shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of common stock or preferred stock purchase rights, as the case may be (the “Rights”), if any, that shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive and the certificates representing the Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any shareholder rights agreement adopted by the Company, as the same may be amended from time to time (in each case, a “Rights Agreement”). Provided that such Rights Agreement, if any, requires that each share of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Securities at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing the Rights be entitled to receive such Rights, if any, then, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Article Twelve there shall not be any adjustment to the conversion privilege or Conversion Rate as a result of the issuance of Rights, if any, but an adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made pursuant to Section 1205(d) (to the extent required thereby) upon the separation of the Rights, if any, from the Common Stock.

ARTICLE THIRTEEN

Subsidiary Guarantee

SECTION 1302. Subsidiary Guarantors.

If any Subsidiary of the Company shall become a subsidiary guarantor under, and as such term is defined in, the Credit Agreements, the Company shall cause such Subsidiary concurrently to become a Subsidiary Guarantor by executing and delivering to the Trustee (a) a Subsidiary Guarantee substantially in the form established pursuant to Annex A hereof and (b) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Subsidiary Guarantee has been duly authorized and executed by such Person and constitutes the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Person (subject to customary exceptions concerning creditors’ rights and equitable principles). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in no event shall a Foreign Subsidiary become a Subsidiary Guarantor.

SECTION 1303. Subsidiary Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc., on Certain Terms.

Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent any consolidation or merger of any Subsidiary Guarantor with or into the Company or any other

Subsidiary Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of any Subsidiary Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor.

ANNEX A — Form of Subsidiary
Guarantee

Form of Subsidiary Guarantee

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

For value received, the Subsidiary Guarantor named below, as of the date hereof, hereby unconditionally guarantees to the Holders of the 3% Convertible Senior Notes due 2033 (the “Securities”), issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of July 1, 2003 between Sealed Air Corporation (the “Company”) and SunTrust Bank, as Trustee (the “Indenture”), for the benefit of whom this Subsidiary Guarantee is executed and delivered, and to the Trustee on behalf of such Holders, the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Securities when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, by acceleration, on redemption or repurchase, or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of the Indenture referred to therein. In case of the failure of the Company punctually to make any such payment, the Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees to cause such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by acceleration, on redemption or repurchase, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company.

A-1

principal (or premium, if any) or interest on such Security, whether at their Stated Maturity, by acceleration, on redemption or repurchase, or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, directly against the Subsidiary Guarantor to enforce this Subsidiary Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company. The Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective rights to accelerate the maturity of the Securities, to collect interest on the Securities, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to pay to the Trustee for the account of the Holders, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any of the Holders.

A-2

or returned by any obligee on the Securities, 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 Securities 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.

All terms used in this Subsidiary Guarantee shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

This Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until delivered to the Trustee.

THIS SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

A-3

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Subsidiary Guarantor has caused this Subsidiary Guarantee to be duly executed.

(b) If the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period (other than because all Registrable Securities registered thereunder shall have been resold pursuant thereto or shall have otherwise ceased to be Registrable Securities), the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall within forty-five (45) days of such cessation of effectiveness amend the Shelf Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected to obtain the withdrawal of the order suspending the effectiveness thereof, or file an additional Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Registrable Securities (or, in the event Rule 415 shall not be available for any of the Registrable Securities, covering an offering to be made as permitted under the terms of the Notes and this Agreement, including the offering of the Underlying Common Stock upon exchange, repurchase or redemption of the Notes (each, a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”). If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as is practicable after such filing and to keep such Registration Statement (or subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) continuously effective until the end of the Effectiveness Period.

(c) The Company shall supplement and amend the Shelf Registration Statement if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the Securities Act or as necessary to name a Notice Holder as a selling securityholder pursuant to Section (d) below.

(d) Each Holder agrees that if such Holder wishes to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus, it will do so only in accordance with this Section 2(d) and Section 3(h). Following the date that the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, each Holder wishing to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus agrees to deliver a Notice and Questionnaire to the Company at least three (3) Business Days prior to any intended distribution of Registrable Securities under the Shelf Registration Statement. Each holder who elects to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement agrees that, by submitting a Notice and Questionnaire to the Company, it will be bound by the terms and conditions of the Notice and Questionnaire and this Agreement.

(i) if required by applicable law, file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and, if required by applicable law, file a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire is named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver such Prospectus to purchasers of the Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law and, if the Company shall file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement, use its reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is practicable, but in any event by the date (the “Amendment Effectiveness Deadline Date”) that is forty-five (45) days after the date such post-effective amendment is required by this clause to be filed;

(ii) provide such Holder copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 2(d)(i); and

(iii) notify such Holder as promptly as practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment filed pursuant to Section 2(d)(i);

provided, that if such Notice and Questionnaire is delivered during a Deferral Period, the Company shall so inform the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire and shall take the actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above upon expiration of the Deferral Period in accordance with Section 3(h). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) the Company shall be under no obligation to name any Holder that is not a Notice Holder as a selling securityholder in any Registration Statement or related Prospectus and (ii) the Amendment Effectiveness Deadline Date shall be extended by up to ten (10) Business Days from the expiration of a Deferral Period (and the Company shall incur no obligation to pay Liquidated Damages during such extension or during such Deferral Period) if such Deferral Period shall be in effect on the Amendment Effectiveness Deadline Date.

(e) The parties hereto agree that the Holders of Registrable Securities will suffer damages, and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision, if, other than as permitted hereunder,

(i) the Initial Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed on or prior to the Filing Deadline Date,

(ii) the Initial Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline Date,

(iii) the Company has failed to perform its obligations set forth in Section 2(d)(i) within the time period required therein,

(iv) any post-effective amendment to a Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) has not become effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the Amendment Effectiveness Deadline Date, or

(v) the aggregate duration of Deferral Periods in any period exceeds the number of days permitted in respect of such period pursuant to Section 3(h) hereof.

Each event described in any of the foregoing clauses (i) through (v) is individually referred to herein as an “Event.” For purposes of this Agreement, each Event set forth above shall begin and end on the dates set forth in the table set forth below:

Type of Event by Clause	Beginning Date	Ending Date

(i)	Filing Deadline Date	the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is filed
(ii)	Effectiveness Deadline Date	the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act
(iii)	the date by which the Company is required to perform its obligations under Section 2(d)	the date the Company performs its obligations set forth in Section 2(d)

Type of Event by Clause	Beginning Date	Ending Date
(iv)	the Amendment Effectiveness Deadline Date	the date the applicable post-effective amendment to a Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act
(v)	the date on which the aggregate duration of Deferral Periods in any period exceeds the number of days permitted by Section 3(h)	termination of the Deferral Period that caused the limit on the aggregate duration of Deferral Periods to be exceeded

For purposes of this Agreement, Events shall begin on the dates set forth in the table above and shall continue until the ending dates set forth in the table above.

Commencing on (and including) any date that an Event has begun and ending on (but excluding) the next date on which there are no Events that have occurred and are continuing (a “Damages Accrual Period”), the Company shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, to Record Holders of Notes an amount (the “Liquidated Damages Amount”) accruing, for each day in the Damages Accrual Period, in respect of any Note, at a rate per annum equal to 0.5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding until the Registration Statement is filed or made effective or during the additional period the Prospectus is unavailable; provided that in the case of a Damages Accrual Period that is in effect solely as a result of an Event of the type described in clause (iii) or (iv) of the preceding paragraph, such Liquidated Damages Amount shall be paid only to the Holders of Notes (as set forth in the succeeding paragraph) that have delivered Notices and Questionnaires that caused the Company to incur the obligations set forth in Section 2(d) the non-performance of which is the basis of such Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Liquidated Damages Amount shall accrue as to any Note from and after the earlier of (x) the date that the Registrable Securities into which such Note is convertible have ceased to be Registrable Securities and (y) expiration of the Effectiveness Period. The rate of accrual of the Liquidated Damages Amount with respect to any period shall not exceed the rate provided for in this paragraph notwithstanding the occurrence of multiple concurrent Events.

The Liquidated Damages Amount shall accrue from the first day of the applicable Damages Accrual Period, and shall be payable on each Damages Payment Date during the Damage Accrual Period (and on the Damages Payment Date next succeeding the end of the Damages Accrual Period if the Damage Accrual Period does not end on a Damages Payment Date) to the Record Holders of Notes entitled thereto; provided that any Liquidated Damages Amount accrued with respect to any Note or portion thereof redeemed by the Company on a redemption date or converted into Underlying Common Stock on a conversion date prior to the Damages Payment Date, shall, in any such event, be paid instead to the Holder who submitted such Note or portion thereof for redemption or conversion on the applicable redemption date or

conversion date, as the case may be, on such date (or promptly following the conversion date, in the case of conversion); provided further that, in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (iii) or (iv) of the first paragraph of this Section 2(e), such Liquidated Damages Amount shall be paid only to the Holders of Notes entitled thereto pursuant to such first paragraph by check mailed to the address set forth in the Notice and Questionnaire delivered by such Holder. The Trustee shall be entitled, on behalf of registered holders of Notes, to seek any available remedy for the enforcement of this Agreement, including for the payment of such Liquidated Damages Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that the sole damages payable for a violation of the terms of this Agreement with respect to which liquidated damages are expressly provided shall be such liquidated damages. Nothing shall preclude any Holder from pursuing or obtaining specific performance or other equitable relief with respect to this Agreement.

All of the Company’s obligations set forth in this Section 2(e) that are outstanding with respect to any Note shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such security have been satisfied in full (notwithstanding termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9(k)).

The parties hereto agree that the liquidated damages provided for in this Section 2(e) constitute a reasonable estimate of the damages that may be incurred by Holders of Notes and Registrable Securities by reason of the failure of the Shelf Registration Statement to be filed or declared effective or available for effecting resales of Registrable Securities in accordance with the provisions hereof.

SECTION 3. Registration Procedures. In connection with the registration obligations of the Company under Section 2 hereof, during the Effectiveness Period, the Company shall:

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement or Registration Statements on any appropriate form under the Securities Act available for the sale of the Registrable Securities by the Holders thereof in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and use its reasonable efforts to cause each such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided herein; provided that before filing any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto with the SEC (but excluding reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act), furnish to and afford the Initial Purchasers and the Special Counsel a reasonable opportunity to review copies of all such documents proposed to be filed (in each case, where possible, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of such Registration Statement or amendment thereto or Prospectus or supplement thereto, or such later date as is reasonable under the circumstances).

(b) Subject to Section 3(h), prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective for the applicable period specified in Section 2(a); cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act; and use its reasonable efforts to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act applicable to it with respect to

the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during the Effectiveness Period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or such Prospectus as so supplemented.

(c) As promptly as practicable give notice to the Notice Holders, the Initial Purchasers and the Special Counsel, (i) when any Prospectus, prospectus supplement, Registration Statement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has been declared effective, (ii) of any request, following the effectiveness of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement under the Securities Act, by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information relating to the Shelf Registration Statement, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for that purpose, (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the occurrence of, but not the nature of or details concerning, a Material Event and (vi) of the determination by the Company that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement will be filed with the SEC, which notice may, at the discretion of the Company (or as required pursuant to Section 3(h)), state that it constitutes a Deferral Notice, in which event the provisions of Section 3(h) shall apply.

(d) Use its reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of a Prospectus and, if any such order is issued, to use its reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment, and provide prompt notice to each Notice Holder and the Initial Purchaser of the withdrawal of any such order.

the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in the manner set forth therein.

(g) Prior to any public offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, use its reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Notice Holders and the Special Counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Notice Holder reasonably requests in writing (which request shall be included in the Notice and Questionnaire or shall otherwise be timely delivered to the Company); prior to any public offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, use its reasonable efforts to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period in connection with such Notice Holder’s offer and sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities in the manner set forth in the relevant Registration Statement and the related Prospectus; provided that the Company will not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Agreement or (ii) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in suits or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

(i) in the case of clause (B) above, subject to the next sentence, as promptly as practicable prepare and file, if necessary pursuant to applicable law, a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document that would be incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement and Prospectus so that such Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or

necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and such Prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities being sold thereunder, and, in the case of a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement, subject to the next sentence, use its reasonable efforts to cause it to be declared effective as promptly as is practicable, and

The Company will use its reasonable efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed (x) in the case of clause (A) above, as promptly as is practicable, (y) in the case of clause (B) above, as soon as, in the sole judgment of the Company, public disclosure of such Material Event would not be prejudicial to or contrary to the interests of the Company or, if necessary to avoid unreasonable burden or expense, as soon as practicable thereafter and (z) in the case of clause (C) above, as soon as in the reasonable discretion of the Company, such suspension is no longer appropriate. The Company shall be entitled to exercise its right under this Section 3(h) to suspend the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement or any Prospectus, without incurring or accruing any obligation to pay liquidated damages pursuant to Section 2(e) (the “Deferral Period”); provided that the aggregate duration of any Deferral Periods shall not (other than as described in the next sentence) exceed 45 days in any three month period or 120 days in any twelve (12) month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any Material Events relating to any possible acquisitions or financings, recapitalizations, business combinations or other similar material transactions involving the Company, the Company may, without incurring any obligation to pay liquidated damages pursuant to Section 2(e), suspend the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement for up to an aggregate of 180 days in any twelve (12) month period (with no limitation on the aggregate duration of any such Deferral Period in any three-month period).

(i) If reasonably requested in writing in connection with a disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, make reasonably available for inspection during normal business hours by a representative for the Notice Holders of such Registrable Securities, any broker-dealers, underwriters, attorneys and accountants retained by such Notice Holders, and any attorneys or other agents retained by a broker-dealer or underwriter engaged by such Notice Holders, all relevant financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and cause the appropriate officers, directors and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to make reasonably available for inspection during normal business hours on reasonable notice all relevant information reasonably requested by such representative for the Notice Holders, or any such broker-dealers, underwriters, attorneys

or accountants in connection with such disposition, in each case as is customary for similar “due diligence” examinations, other than those subject to an attorney-client or other privilege; provided that such persons shall first agree in writing with the Company that any information that is reasonably designated by the Company as confidential at the time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by such persons and shall be used solely for the purposes of exercising rights under this Agreement, unless (i) disclosure of such information is required by court or administrative order or is necessary to respond to inquiries of regulatory authorities, (ii) disclosure of such information is required by law (including any disclosure requirements pursuant to federal securities laws in connection with the filing of any Registration Statement or the use of any Prospectus referred to in this Agreement), (iii) such information becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by any such person or (iv) such information becomes available to any such person from a source other than the Company and such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement, and provided further that the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall, to the greatest extent possible, be coordinated on behalf of all the Notice Holders and the other parties entitled thereto by the Special Counsel. Any person legally compelled to disclose any such confidential information made available for inspection shall provide the Company with prompt prior written notice of such requirement so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy.

(j) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make generally available to its securityholders earning statements (which need not be audited) satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated under the Securities Act) for a 12-month period commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter of the Company commencing after the effective date of a Registration Statement, which statements shall be made available no later than 45 days after the end of the 12-month period or 90 days if the 12-month period coincides with the fiscal year of the Company. Compliance with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC satisfies the Company’s obligation to provide such earnings statement if the Company is then a reporting company subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

(k) Cooperate with each Notice Holder to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities sold or to be sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends, and cause such Registrable Securities to be registered in such names as such Notice Holder may request in writing at least two (2) Business Day prior to any sale of such Registrable Securities.

(l) Provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement and provide the transfer agent for the Common Stock with printed certificates for the Registrable Securities that are in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

(m) Cooperate and assist in any necessary filings required to be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

(n) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement involving an underwritten offering, the Company shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold or any managing underwriters shall reasonably request in order to facilitate any disposition of Underlying Common Stock pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, including, without limitation, (i) using its reasonable efforts to cause its counsel to deliver an opinion or opinions in customary form, (ii) using its reasonable efforts to cause its officers to execute and deliver all customary documents and certificates and (iii) using its reasonable efforts to cause its independent public accountants to provide a comfort letter or letters in customary form.

(o) Upon (i) the filing of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement and (ii) the effectiveness of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement, announce the same, in each case by release to Reuters Economic Services and Bloomberg Business News.

SECTION 4. Holder’s Obligations. Each Holder agrees, by acquisition of the Notes or any Registrable Securities, that no Holder shall be entitled to sell any of such Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or to receive a Prospectus relating thereto, unless such Holder has furnished the Company with a Notice and Questionnaire as required pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof (including the information required to be included in such Notice and Questionnaire) and the information set forth in the next sentence. Each Notice Holder agrees promptly to furnish to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Notice Holder not misleading and any other information regarding such Notice Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request. Any sale of any Registrable Securities by any Holder shall constitute a representation and warranty by such Holder that the information relating to such Holder and its plan of distribution is as set forth in the Prospectus delivered by such Holder in connection with such disposition, that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale contain any untrue statement of a material fact relating to or provided by such Holder or its plan of distribution and that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale omit to state any material fact relating to or provided by such Holder or its plan of distribution necessary to make the statements in such Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Each Holder agrees by acquisition of its Notes or any Registrable Securities that, upon actual receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(c)(iii), 3(c)(v) or 3(c)(vi) hereof, or of a Deferral Period pursuant to Section 3(h) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement or Prospectus pursuant to such Registration Statement or Prospectus until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Registration Statement or Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(h)(i) hereof, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies or any amendments or supplements thereto.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not have any liability for any incremental expenses incurred as a result of an underwritten offering of any Registrable Securities.

SECTION 5. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance by the Company of its obligations under Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement whether or not any Registration Statement is declared effective. Such fees and expenses shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of compliance with federal and state securities or Blue Sky laws (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of the Special Counsel in connection with Blue Sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as Notice Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement may designate), (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company), (iii) duplication expenses relating to copies of any Registration Statement or Prospectus delivered to any Holders hereunder, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, (v) reasonable fees and disbursements of the Trustee and its counsel and of the registrar and transfer agent for the Common Stock and (vi) any Securities Act liability insurance obtained by the Company in its sole discretion. In addition, the Company shall pay the internal expenses of the Company (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit, the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing by the Company of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange on which similar securities of the Company are then listed and the fees and expenses of any person, including special experts, retained by the Company. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, each seller of Registrable Securities shall pay selling expenses, including any underwriting discount and commissions, and all registration expenses to the extent required by applicable law.

SECTION 6. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Notice Holder whose Registrable Securities are to be included in a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3, and each person, if any, who controls such Notice Holder within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any

such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Holder furnished to the Company in the Notice and Questionnaire or otherwise in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided that the indemnification contained in this paragraph shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder (or to the benefit of any person controlling such Holder) on account of any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus provided in each case the Company has performed its obligations under Section 3(a) hereof if either (A) (i) such Holder failed to send or deliver a copy of the Prospectus with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by such Holder to the person asserting the claim from which such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise and (ii) the Prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission, or (B) (x) such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission is corrected in an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus and (y) having previously been furnished by or on behalf of the Company with copies of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented, such Holder thereafter fails to deliver such Prospectus as so amended or supplemented, with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale of a Registrable Security to the person asserting the claim from which such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise. In connection with any underwritten offering pursuant to Section 8, the Company will also indemnify the underwriters, if any, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided herein with respect to the indemnification of the Holders, if requested in connection with any Registration Statement.

(b) Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, its officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company (within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) or any other Holder, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to such Holder, but only with reference to information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company in the Notice and Questionnaire or otherwise in writing by such Holder expressly for use in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto. In no event shall the liability of any Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation. In connection with any underwritten offering pursuant to Section 8, each Holder will also indemnify the underwriters, if any, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided herein with respect to the indemnification of the Company, if requested in connection with any Registration Statement.

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b) hereof, such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In

any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a), the Holders of a majority (with Holders of Notes deemed to be the Holders, for purposes of determining such majority, of the number of shares of Underlying Common Stock into which such Notes are or would be convertible as of the date on which such designation is made) of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement held by Holders that are indemnified parties pursuant to Section 6(a) and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b), the Company. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(d) Contribution. To the extent that the indemnification provided for in Section 6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the initial placement pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (before deducting expenses) of the Registrable Securities to which such losses, claims, damages or liabilities relate. The relative benefits received by any Holder shall be deemed to be equal to the value of receiving Registrable Securities that are registered under the Securities Act. The relative fault of the Holders on the one hand and the Company on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Holders or by the Company, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to

correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Holders’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to the respective number of Registrable Securities they have sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, and not joint.

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account 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 or liabilities 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 this Section 6, no indemnifying party that is a selling Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Registrable Securities sold by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such indemnifying party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11 (f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) The remedies provided for in this Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to an indemnified party at law or in equity, hereunder, under the Purchase Agreement or otherwise.

(f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 6 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder, any person controlling any Holder or any affiliate of any Holder or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) the sale of any Registrable Securities by any Holder.

SECTION 7. Information Requirements. The Company covenants that, if at any time before the end of the Effectiveness Period the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, it will cooperate with any Holder and take such further reasonable action as any Holder may reasonably request in writing (including, without limitation, making such reasonable representations as any such Holder may reasonably request), all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 and Rule 144A under the Securities Act and customarily taken in connection with sales pursuant to such exemptions. Upon the written request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such filing requirements, unless such a statement has been included in the Company’s most recent report filed pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities (other than the Common Stock) under any section of the Exchange Act.

SECTION 8. Underwritten Registrations. (a) The Holders of Registrable Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement who desire to do so may sell such Registrable

Securities to an underwriter in an underwritten offering for reoffering to the public (the “Underwritten Holders”), subject to the consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If any of the Registrable Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Company and the Holders participating in such underwritten offering or reoffering shall be responsible for all underwriting commissions and discounts and any transfer taxes in connection therewith. No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Registrable Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

(b) If the managing underwriter(s) for such underwritten offering advises the Company and the representative for the Underwritten Holders that the amount of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein exceeds the amount of Registrable Securities that can be sold in such underwritten offering or that the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be included in any such underwritten offering would materially and adversely affect the price per share of the Company’s Common Stock to be sold in such underwritten offering, the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such underwritten offering shall be the number of shares of Registrable Securities which in the opinion of such managing underwriter(s) can be sold. If the number of shares which can be sold is less than the number of shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering, any securities to be sold by the Underwritten Holders shall be reduced pro rata on the basis of the number of shares requested to be registered by such Underwritten Holders or as such Underwritten Holders may otherwise agree.

SECTION 9. Miscellaneous.

(a) No Conflicting Agreements. The Company is not, as of the date hereof, a party to, nor shall it, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that conflicts with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement. The Company represents and warrants that the rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the Company’s securities under any other agreements.

(b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Underlying Common Stock constituting Registrable Securities (with Holders of Notes deemed to be the Holders, for purposes of this Section, of the number of outstanding shares of Underlying Common Stock into which such Notes are or would be convertible as of the date on which such consent is requested). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or

indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration Statement; provided that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, this Agreement may be amended by written agreement signed by the Company and the Initial Purchasers, without the consent of the Holders of Registrable Securities, to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained herein, or to make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under this Agreement that shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Registrable Securities. Each Holder of Registrable Securities outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent or thereafter shall be bound by any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 9(b), whether or not any notice, writing or marking indicating such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent appears on the Registrable Securities or is delivered to such Holder.

(c) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, by telecopier, by courier guaranteeing overnight delivery or by first-class mail, return receipt requested, and shall be deemed given (i) when made, if made by hand delivery, (ii) upon confirmation, if made by telecopier, (iii) one (1) Business Day after being deposited with such courier, if made by overnight courier or (iv) on the date indicated on the notice of receipt, if made by first-class mail, to the parties as follows:

(i) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to the Company in a Notice and Questionnaire or any amendment thereto;

(ii) if to the Company, to:

Telecopy No.: (212) 761-0538

or to such other address as such person may have furnished to the other persons identified in this Section 9(c) in writing in accordance herewith.

(d) Approval of Holders. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of Registrable Securities is required hereunder, Registrable Securities held by the Company or its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (other than the Initial Purchasers or subsequent Holders if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be such affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such Registrable Securities) shall not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

(e) Successors and Assigns. Any person who purchases any Registrable Securities from the Initial Purchasers shall be deemed, for purposes of this Agreement, to be an assignee of the Initial Purchasers. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties and shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each Holder of any Registrable Securities, provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit any assignment, transfer or other disposition of Registrable Securities in violation of the terms of the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall acquire Registrable Securities, in any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Registrable Securities shall be held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Registrable Securities, such person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and such person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof.

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(g) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

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

(i) Severability. If any term provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(j) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and is intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and the registration rights granted by the Company with respect to the Registrable Securities. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes, there are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein, with respect to the registration rights granted by the Company with respect to the Registrable Securities. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings among the parties with respect to such registration rights. No party hereto shall have any rights, duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement.

(k) Termination. This Agreement and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate upon the end of the Effectiveness Period, except for any liabilities or obligations under Section 4, 5 or 6 hereof and the obligations to make payments of and provide for liquidated damages under Section 2(e) hereof to the extent such damages accrue prior to the end of the Effectiveness Period, each of which shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.
