holding of Loan Notes after such transfer would not be less than $2,000,000)

transfer in whole if it does not relate to all of the Loan Notes held by a
transferor and its affiliates);   (b)   subject to compliance with the
restrictions set out in Schedule 6; and   (c)   in whole or in part to any
affiliate of a Noteholder provided that, in the case of a transfer in part, the
transferor and the transferee have entered into such documentation as the

the transferor’s group shall act as administrative agent for all Noteholders who
are members of such group, with the effect that the Company will only be
required to deal with one member of the transferor’s group in relation to the
Loan Notes; and       (ii)   if the transferee ceases to be an affiliate of the
transferor, the Company will be notified and able to require the relevant Loan
Notes promptly to be transferred back to the transferor.

For these purposes, an affiliate of any person is (i) any other person that is a
holding company or subsidiary of the first, or a subsidiary of any such holding
company; (ii) in the case of a transferor that is a fund management company,
investment company, or venture capital or private equity company, any fund,

required and such other evidence as the Directors may require to prove the title
of the transferor or its right to transfer the Loan Notes, and, if the
instrument of transfer is executed by some other person on its behalf, the
authority of that person to do so. The transfer will then (subject to paragraphs
3 and 4 above) be registered and a note of such registration will be entered in
the Register and a new certificate for Loan Notes issued accordingly.

Company.

principal amount of the Loan Notes or any part thereof may be paid by electronic
transfer to the bank account notified for such purpose by the relevant
Noteholder to the Company no less than 14 days prior to the relevant date for
payment; or if no such account is so satisfied, by cheque sent through the post
at the risk of the holder or holders to the registered address of the holder or,
in the case of joint registered holders, to the registered address of that one
of the joint registered holders who is first named on the register in respect of
such holding, or to such person and to such address as the registered holder or
the joint registered holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque shall be
made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent and payment of the
cheque shall be a satisfaction of the moneys represented thereby.
 
10. If any Loan Note certificate is defaced, lost or destroyed, it may be
replaced on such terms (if any) as to evidence and indemnity as the Company may
require but so that, in the case of defacement, the defaced Loan Note
certificate shall be surrendered before the new Loan Note certificate is issued.

SCHEDULE 4

the written consent of Noteholders holding 66% of the aggregate principal amount
of the then outstanding Loan Notes. Noteholders holding a 66% of the aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Loan Notes may waive compliance by the
Company with any provision of the Loan Notes. However, without the consent of
each affected Noteholder, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not:
 

(a)       change the maturity of the principal of or any instalment of interest
on any Loan Note in a manner adverse to the Noteholders;   (b)   reduce the
principal amount of any Loan Note;   (c)   reduce the rate of or extend the time

of the Noteholders to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or
with respect to any Loan Notes or the modification and amendment provisions of
the Loan Notes;   (f)   reduce the percentage of the principal amount of
outstanding Loan Notes necessary for amendment to or waiver of compliance with
any provision of the Loan Notes or for waiver of any breach of the terms
thereof;   (g)   waive a default in the payment of principal of, interest on, or
redemption payment with respect to, the Loan Notes;   (h)   modify the ranking
or priority of any Loan Note in any manner adverse to the Noteholders;

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Noteholders under this Schedule
4 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or
waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance
thereof.
 
After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Schedule 4 becomes
effective, the Company shall notify the Noteholders affected thereby with a
notice briefly describing the amendment; supplement or waiver. Any failure by
the Company to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in
any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or
waiver.
