SECTION 2. HOLDERS

     A Person is deemed to be a holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (each,
a "HOLDER") whenever such Person owns Transfer Restricted Securities.

SECTION 3. REGISTERED EXCHANGE OFFER

     (a) Unless the Exchange Offer shall not be permitted by applicable law or
Commission policy (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a)(i) below have
been complied with), the Company and the Guarantors shall (i) cause the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement to be filed with the Commission as soon as
practicable after the Closing Date, but in no event later than 150 days after
the Closing Date (such 150th day being the "FILING DEADLINE"), (ii) use all of
their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Exchange Offer
Registration Statement to become effective at the earliest practicable time, but
in no event later than 240 days after the Closing Date (such 240th day being the
"EXCHANGE OFFER EFFECTIVENESS DEADLINE"), (iii) in connection with the
foregoing, use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to (A) file all
pre-effective amendments to such Exchange Offer Registration Statement as may be
necessary in order to cause it to become effective, (B) file, if


                                        3



applicable, a post-effective amendment to such Exchange Offer Registration
Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Act and (C) cause all necessary
filings, if any, in connection with the registration and qualification of the
Exchange Notes to be made under the blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as are
necessary to permit Consummation of the Exchange Offer; provided, however, that
neither the Company nor the Guarantors shall be required to take any action that
would subject them to general service of process or taxation in any jurisdiction
where they are not already so subject, and (iv) as promptly as practicable after
the effectiveness of such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, commence and
Consummate the Exchange Offer. The 150 and 240 day periods referred to in clause
(i) and (ii) of this Section 3(a) shall not include any period in which the
Company is pursuing a Commission decision in accordance with the provisions of
Section 6(a)(i) hereof. The Exchange Offer shall be on the appropriate form
permitting (i) registration of the Exchange Notes to be offered in exchange for
the Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) resales of Exchange Notes by
Broker-Dealers that tendered into the Exchange Offer Initial Notes that such
Broker-Dealer acquired for its own account as a result of market-making
activities or other trading activities (other than Initial Notes acquired
directly from the Company or any of its Affiliates) as contemplated by Section
3(c) below.

     (b) Unless the Exchange Offer shall not be permitted by applicable law or
Commission policy (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a)(i) below have
been complied with), the Company and the Guarantors shall use all of their
respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement to be effective continuously, and shall keep the Exchange
Offer open for a period of not less than the minimum period required under
applicable federal and state securities laws to Consummate the Exchange Offer;
provided, however, that in no event shall such period be less than 20 Business
Days. The Company and the Guarantors shall cause the Exchange Offer to comply in
all material respects with all applicable federal and state securities laws. No
securities other than the Exchange Notes shall be included in the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement. The Company and the Guarantors shall use all of their
respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer to be
Consummated on the earliest practicable date after the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement has become effective, but in no event later than 45
Business Days thereafter, or longer, if required by the federal securities laws
(such 45th (or longer) Business Day being the "CONSUMMATION DEADLINE").

     (c) The Company and the Guarantors shall include a "Plan of Distribution"
section in the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
and indicate therein that any Broker-Dealer who holds Initial Notes that are
Transfer Restricted Securities that were acquired for the account of such
Broker-Dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities (other than Transfer Restricted Securities acquired directly from the
Company or any Affiliate of the Company), may exchange such Transfer Restricted
Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer. Such "Plan of Distribution" section
shall also contain all other information with respect to such sales by such
Broker-Dealers that the Commission may require in order to permit such sales
pursuant thereto, but such "Plan of Distribution" shall not name any such
Broker-Dealer or disclose the amount of Initial Notes held by any such
Broker-Dealer, except to the extent required by the Commission as a result of a
change in policy, rules or regulations after the date of this Agreement. See the
Shearman & Sterling no-action letter (available July 2, 1993).


                                        4



     Because such Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the
meaning of the Act and must, therefore, deliver a prospectus meeting the
requirements of the Act in connection with its initial sale of any Exchange
Notes received by such Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offer, the Company and
Guarantors shall permit the use of the Prospectus contained in the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement by such Broker-Dealer to satisfy such prospectus
delivery requirement. To the extent necessary to ensure that the Prospectus
contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is available for sales of
Exchange Notes by Broker-Dealers, the Company and the Guarantors agree to use
all of their respective commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as
required by and subject to the provisions of Sections 6(a) and (c) hereof and in
conformity with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies,
rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a
period of one year from the Consummation Deadline or such shorter period ending
on the date when all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Registration
Statement have been sold pursuant thereto. The Company and the Guarantors shall
provide sufficient copies of the latest version of such Prospectus to such
Broker-Dealers, promptly upon reasonable request at any time during such period.

SECTION 4. SHELF REGISTRATION

     (a) Shelf Registration. If (i) the Company and the Guarantors are not (A)
required to file the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or (B) permitted to
Consummate the Exchange Offer because the Exchange Offer is not permitted by
applicable law or Commission policy (after the Company and the Guarantors have
complied with the procedures set forth in Section 6(a)(i) below) or (ii) any
Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities notifies the Company prior to 20
Business Days following Consummation of the Exchange Offer that (A) such Holder
was prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange
Offer, (B) such Holder may not resell the Exchange Notes acquired by it in the
Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and the Prospectus
contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or
available for such resales by such Holder or (C) such Holder is a Broker-Dealer
and holds Initial Notes acquired directly from the Company or any of its
Affiliates, then the Company and the Guarantors shall:

     (x) use all of their respective commercially reasonable efforts on or prior
to 45 days after the earlier of (i) the date as of which the Company determines
that the Exchange Offer Registration Statement will not be or cannot be, as the
case may be, filed as a result of clause (a)(i) above and (ii) the date on which
the Company receives the notice specified in clause (a)(ii) above (such earlier
date, the "SHELF FILING DEADLINE"); provided that such Shelf Filing Deadline
shall not be earlier than 150 days after the date of this Agreement, to file a
shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act (which may be an
amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (the "SHELF REGISTRATION
STATEMENT")), relating to all Transfer Restricted Securities of Holders that
have provided the information required pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof; and

     (y) use all of their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause
such Shelf Registration Statement to become effective on or prior to 240 days
after the Shelf Filing Deadline (such 240th day, the "SHELF REGISTRATION
STATEMENT EFFECTIVENESS DEADLINE").


                                        5



     If, after the Company and the Guarantors have filed an Exchange Offer
Registration Statement that satisfies the requirements of Section 3(a) above,
the Company and the Guarantors are required to file and make effective a Shelf
Registration Statement solely because the Exchange Offer is not permitted as a
result of the circumstances described under applicable federal law or Commission
policy (i.e., clause (a)(i)(B) above), then the filing of the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of clause (x)
above; provided that, in such event, the Company and the Guarantors shall remain
obligated to meet the Shelf Registration Statement Effectiveness Deadline.

     To the extent necessary to ensure that the Shelf Registration Statement is
available for sales of Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof
entitled to the benefit of this Section 4(a) and the other securities required
to be registered therein pursuant to Section 6(b)(ii) hereof, the Company and
the Guarantors shall use all of their respective commercially reasonable efforts
to keep any Shelf Registration Statement required by this Section 4(a)
continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by and subject to
the provisions of Sections 6(b) and (c) hereof and in conformity in all material
respects with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies,
rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a
period of at least two years (as extended pursuant to Section 6(d) hereof)
following the Closing Date, or such shorter period as will terminate when all
Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have
been sold pursuant thereto.

     (b) Provision by Holders of Certain Information in Connection with the
Shelf Registration Statement. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may
include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf Registration
Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and until (i) such Holder furnishes
to the Company in writing, within 20 days after receipt of a request therefor,
the information specified in Item 507 or Item 508 of Regulation S-K, as
applicable, of the Act for use in connection with any Shelf Registration
Statement or Prospectus or preliminary prospectus included therein, and (ii) in
the case of an underwritten offering, such Holder completes and executes all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and
other documents reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the terms
of such underwritten offering. Furthermore, no Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities may include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf
Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such Holder
furnishes to the Company in writing, within 10 Business Days after receipt of a
request therefor, such Holder's comments to the disclosure relating to such
Holder in the Shelf Registration Statement. No Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities shall be entitled to Liquidated Damages pursuant to Section 5 hereof
unless and until such Holder shall have provided all such information. Each
selling Holder agrees to promptly furnish additional information required to be
disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company
by such Holder not materially misleading.

SECTION 5. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

     Subject to the Company's rights set forth in Section 6(b)(iii) and 6(d)
hereof, if (i) any Registration Statement required by this Agreement is not
filed with the Commission on or prior to the applicable Filing Deadline or Shelf
Filing Deadline, as applicable, (ii) any of such Registration Statements is not
declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the Exchange Offer
Effectiveness Deadline or the Shelf Registration Statement Effectiveness
Deadline, as


                                        6



applicable, (iii) the Exchange Offer has not been Consummated on or prior to the
Consummation Deadline or (iv) any Registration Statement required by this
Agreement is filed and declared effective but thereafter ceases to be usable for
its intended purpose, without being succeeded within 10 Business Days by a
post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that cures such failure
and that is itself declared effective within such 10 Business Day period (each
such event referred to in clauses (i) through (iv), a "REGISTRATION DEFAULT"),
then the Company and the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay to
each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities liquidated damages ("LIQUIDATED
DAMAGES") in an amount equal to a per annum rate of 0.25% on the principal
amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder for the period of
time that the Registration Default continues for the first 90-day period
immediately following the occurrence of such Registration Default. The amount of
the Liquidated Damages shall increase by an additional per annum rate of 0.25%
with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until no Registration Default is
in effect, up to a maximum amount of Liquidated Damages for all Registration
Defaults of 1.00% per annum on the principal amount of Transfer Restricted
Securities; provided that the Company and the Guarantors shall in no event be
required to pay Liquidated Damages for more than one Registration Default at any
given time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (1) upon
filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (and/or, if applicable, the
Shelf Registration Statement), in the case of (i) above, (2) upon the
effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (and/or, if
applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement), in the case of (ii) above, (3)
upon Consummation of the Exchange Offer, in the case of (iii) above, or (4) upon
the filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or an
additional Registration Statement that causes the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement (and/or, if applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement) to again be
declared effective or made usable in the case of (iv) above, the Liquidated
Damages payable with respect to the Transfer Restricted Securities as a result
of such clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), as applicable, shall cease on the date
of such cure and the interest rate on such Transfer Restricted Securities will
revert to the interest rate on such Transfer Restricted Securities prior to the
applicable Registration Default.

     All accrued Liquidated Damages shall be paid to the Holders entitled
thereto, in the manner provided for the payment of interest in the Indenture, on
the next scheduled Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture), as more
fully set forth in the Indenture and the Notes. Notwithstanding the fact that
any securities for which Liquidated Damages are due cease to be Transfer
Restricted Securities, all obligations of the Company and the Guarantors to pay
Liquidated Damages with respect to securities shall survive until such time as
such obligations with respect to such securities shall have been satisfied in
full.

     The amount of Liquidated Damages payable shall not increase because more
than one Registration Default has occurred and is continuing, and a Holder of
Initial Notes or Exchange Notes who is not entitled to the benefits of a Shelf
Registration Statement shall not be entitled to Liquidated Damages with respect
to a Registration Default that pertains to such Shelf Registration Statement.

SECTION 6. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES

     (a) Exchange Offer Registration Statement. In connection with the Exchange
Offer, the Company and the Guarantors shall (x) comply with all applicable
provisions of Section 6(c)


                                        7



below, (y) use all of their respective commercially reasonable efforts to effect
such exchange and to permit the resale of Exchange Notes by Broker-Dealers that
tendered in the Exchange Offer Initial Notes that such Broker-Dealer acquired
for its own account as a result of its market-making activities or other trading
activities (other than Initial Notes acquired directly from the Company or any
of its Affiliates) being sold in accordance with the intended method or methods
of distribution thereof set forth in the Registration Statement, and (z) comply
with all of the following provisions:

          (i) If, following the date hereof there has been announced a change in
     Commission policy with respect to exchange offers such as the Exchange
     Offer, that in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company raises a
     substantial question as to whether the Exchange Offer is permitted by
     applicable law, the Company and the Guarantors hereby agree to seek a
     no-action letter or other favorable decision from the Commission allowing
     the Company and the Guarantors to Consummate an Exchange Offer for such
     Transfer Restricted Securities. The Company and the Guarantors hereby agree
     to pursue the issuance of such a decision to the Commission staff level;
     provided that the Company and the Guarantors shall not be required to take
     any commercially unreasonable action to effect a change in Commission
     policy. In connection with the foregoing, the Company and the Guarantors
     hereby agree, however, to take all such other commercially reasonable
     actions as may be requested by the Commission or otherwise required in
     connection with the issuance of such decision, including without limitation
     (A) participating in telephonic conferences with the Commission, (B)
     delivering to the Commission staff an analysis prepared by counsel to the
     Company setting forth the legal bases, if any, upon which such counsel has
     concluded that such an Exchange Offer should be permitted and (C)
     diligently pursuing a resolution of such submission (which need not be
     favorable) by the Commission staff.

          (ii) As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer, each
     Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (including, without limitation,
     any Holder who is a Broker-Dealer) shall furnish, upon the request of the
     Company, prior to the Consummation of the Exchange Offer, a written
     representation to the Company and the Guarantors (which may be contained in
     the letter of transmittal contemplated by the Exchange Offer Registration
     Statement) to the effect that (A) it is not an Affiliate of the Company,
     (B) it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, and has no
     arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in, a
     distribution of the Exchange Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer and
     (C) it is acquiring the Exchange Notes in its ordinary course of business.
     As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer each Holder using
     the Exchange Offer to participate in a distribution of the Exchange Notes
     shall acknowledge and agree that, if the resales are of Exchange Notes
     obtained by such Holder in exchange for Initial Notes acquired directly
     from the Company or an Affiliate thereof, it (1) could not, under
     Commission policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement, rely on the
     position of the Commission enunciated in Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc.
     (available June 5, 1991) and Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available
     May 13, 1988), as interpreted in the Commission's letter to Shearman &
     Sterling dated July 2, 1993, and similar no-action letters (including, if
     applicable, any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above),
     and (2) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery
     requirements of the Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction
     and that such a


                                        8



     secondary resale transaction must be covered by an effective registration
     statement containing the selling security holder information required by
     Item 507 or 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K.

          (iii) Prior to effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration
     Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall provide a supplemental
     letter to the Commission (A) stating that the Company and the Guarantors
     are registering the Exchange Offer in reliance on the position of the
     Commission enunciated in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available May
     13, 1988), Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (available June 5, 1991) as
     interpreted in the Commission's letter to Shearman & Sterling dated July 2,
     1993, and, if applicable, any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause
     (i) above, (B) including a representation that neither the Company has nor
     the Guarantors have entered into any arrangement or understanding with any
     Person to distribute the Exchange Notes to be received in the Exchange
     Offer and that, to the best of the Company's and the Guarantors'
     information and belief, each Holder participating in the Exchange Offer is
     acquiring the Exchange Notes in its ordinary course of business and has no
     arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in the
     distribution of the Exchange Notes received in the Exchange Offer and (C)
     any other undertaking or representation required by the Commission as set
     forth in any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above, if
     applicable.

     (b) Shelf Registration Statement. In connection with the Shelf Registration
Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall:

          (i) comply with all the provisions of Section 6(c) below and use all
     of their respective commercially reasonable efforts to effect such
     registration to permit the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities being
     sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution
     thereof (as indicated in the information furnished to the Company pursuant
     to Section 4(b) hereof), and pursuant thereto the Company and the
     Guarantors will prepare and file with the Commission a Registration
     Statement relating to the registration on any appropriate form under the
     Act, which form shall be available for the sale of the Transfer Restricted
     Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of
     distribution thereof within the time periods and otherwise in accordance
     with the provisions hereof, and

          (ii) issue, upon the request of any Holder or purchaser of Initial
     Notes covered by any Shelf Registration Statement contemplated by this
     Agreement; provided that such Holder provides all documentation reasonably
     requested by the Company in connection with such issuance, Exchange Notes
     having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal
     amount of Initial Notes sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement
     and surrendered to the Company for cancellation; the Company shall register
     Exchange Notes on the Shelf Registration Statement for this purpose and
     issue the Exchange Notes to the purchaser(s) of securities subject to the
     Shelf Registration Statement in the names as such purchaser(s) shall
     designate.

          (iii) If the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good
     faith that it is in the best interests of the Company not to disclose the
     existence of or facts

     surrounding any proposed or pending material corporate transaction or other
     material development involving the Company or the Guarantors, the Company
     may allow the Shelf Registration Statement to fail to be effective or the
     Prospectus contained therein to be unusable as a result of such
     nondisclosure for up to seventy-five (75) days in any year during the
     two-year period of effectiveness required by Section 4 hereof and no
     Liquidated Damages shall become payable by the Company or the Guarantors as
     a result of any such Shelf Registration Statement failing to be effective
     or any such Prospectus being unusuable pursuant to this Section 6(b)(iii).

     (c) General Provisions. In connection with any Registration Statement and
any related Prospectus required by this Agreement, the Company and the
Guarantors shall:

          (i) use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to keep such
     Registration Statement continuously effective and provide all requisite
     financial statements for the period specified in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as
     applicable. Upon the occurrence of any event that would cause any such
     Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein (A) to contain
     an untrue statement of 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 or (B) not to be effective and usable for resale of Transfer
     Restricted Securities during the period required by this Agreement, the
     Company and the Guarantors shall file as promptly as practicable an
     appropriate amendment to such Registration Statement curing such defect,
     and, if Commission review is required, use all of their respective
     commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment to be declared
     effective as soon as practicable;

          (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
     post-effective amendments to the applicable Registration Statement as may
     be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the
     applicable period set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as the case may be;
     cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus
     supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under
     the Act, and to comply fully with the applicable provisions of Rules 424,
     430A and 462, as applicable, under the Act in a timely manner; and comply
     with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all
     securities covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable
     period in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by
     the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement
     to the Prospectus;

          (iii) advise the Holders as promptly as practicable and, if requested
     by such Holders, confirm such advice in writing, (A) when the Prospectus or
     any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and,
     with respect to any applicable Registration Statement or any post-effective
     amendment thereto, when the same has become effective, (B) of any request
     by the Commission for amendments to the Registration Statement or
     amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for additional information
     relating thereto, (C) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order
     suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Act or
     of the suspension by any state securities commission of the qualification
     of the Transfer


                                       10



     Restricted Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the
     initiation of any proceeding for any of the preceding purposes, and (D) of
     the existence of any fact or the happening of any event that makes any
     statement of a material fact made in the Registration Statement, the
     Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto or any document
     incorporated by reference therein untrue, or that requires the making of
     any additions to or changes in the Registration Statement in order to make
     the statements therein not misleading, or that requires the making of any
     additions to or changes in the Prospectus in order to make the statements
     therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
     misleading (provided, however, that no advice by the Company shall be
     required pursuant to this clause (D) in the event that the Company either
     promptly files a Prospectus supplement to update the Prospectus or a Form
     8-K or other appropriate Exchange Act report that is incorporated by
     reference into such Registration Statement, which, in either case, contains
     the requisite information with respect to such event or facts that results
     in such Registration Statement no longer containing any untrue statement of
     material fact or omitting to state a material fact necessary to make the
     statements contained therein not misleading). If at any time the Commission
     shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
     Statement, or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority
     shall issue an order suspending the qualification or exemption from
     qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities under state securities
     or blue sky laws, the Company and the Guarantors shall use all of their
     respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal or
     lifting of such order at the earliest practicable time;

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

          (v) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, furnish to each
     Holder named in any such Registration Statement in connection with such
     exchange or sale, if any, before filing with the Commission, copies of any
     Registration Statement or any Prospectus included therein or any amendments
     or supplements to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (including
     all documents incorporated by reference after the initial filing of such
     Registration Statement), which documents will be subject to the review and
     comment of such Holders in connection with such sale, if any, for a period
     of at least five Business Days, and the Company will not file any such
     Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any
     such Registration Statement or Prospectus (including all such documents
     incorporated by reference) to which such Holders shall reasonably object in
     writing within five Business Days after the receipt thereof. A Holder shall
     be deemed to have reasonably objected to such filing if such Registration
     Statement, amendment, Prospectus or supplement, as applicable, as proposed
     to be filed, contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
     state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
     the statements therein not


                                       11



     misleading or fails to comply with the applicable requirements of the Act.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to take
     any actions under this Section 6(c)(v) that are not, in the reasonable
     opinion of counsel for the Company, in compliance with applicable law;

          (vi) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, promptly prior to
     the filing of any document that is to be incorporated by reference into a
     Registration Statement or Prospectus in connection with such exchange or
     sale, if any, provide copies of such document to the Holders named in any
     such Registration Statement, make the Company's and the Guarantors'
     representatives available for discussion of such document and other
     customary due diligence matters, subject to negotiation, execution and
     delivery of customary confidentiality agreements, and include such
     information in such document prior to the filing thereof as such Holders
     may reasonably request;

          (vii) make available, at reasonable times, for inspection by the
     Holders named in any applicable Registration Statement and legal counsel or
     accountant retained by such Holders, all financial and other records,
     pertinent corporate documents of the Company and the Guarantors reasonably
     requested by any such Persons and cause the Company's and the Guarantors'
     officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably
     requested by any such Holder, counsel or accountant, subject to
     negotiation, execution and delivery of customary confidentiality
     agreements, in connection with such Registration Statement or any
     post-effective amendment thereto subsequent to the filing thereof and prior
     to its effectiveness;

          (viii) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, if requested by
     any Holders named in any such Registration Statement in connection with
     such exchange or sale, promptly include in any Registration Statement or
     Prospectus, pursuant to a supplement, document incorporated by reference or
     post-effective amendment if necessary, such information as such Holders may
     reasonably request to have included therein, including, without limitation,
     information relating to the "Plan of Distribution" of the Transfer
     Restricted Securities, information with respect to the principal amount of
     Transfer Restricted Securities being sold, the purchase price being paid
     therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Transfer Restricted
     Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required filings of
     such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as
     practicable after the Company is notified of the matters to be included in
     such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment;

          (ix) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, use its
     commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Securities
     covered by the Registration Statement to be rated with the appropriate
     rating agencies, if so requested by the Holders of a majority in aggregate
     principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities covered thereby;

          (x) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, upon request,
     furnish to each Holder named in any such Registration Statement in
     connection with such exchange or sale, without charge, at least one copy of
     the Registration Statement, as first filed with the


                                       12



     Commission, and of each amendment thereto, (without all documents
     incorporated by reference therein and exhibits thereto, unless requested);

          (xi) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, upon request,
     deliver to each Holder named in any such Registration Statement without
     charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary
     prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons
     reasonably may request; provided that if no Registration Statement is
     effective or no Prospectus is usable in accordance with the provisions of
     Section 6(b) hereof, the Company shall deliver to each Holder named in any
     such Registration Statement a notice to that effect; the Company and the
     Guarantors hereby consent to the use (in accordance with law) of the
     Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each selling Holder
     in connection with the offering and the sale of the Transfer Restricted
     Securities covered by the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
     thereto;

          (xii) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, upon the
     reasonable request of any Holder named in any such Registration Statement,
     enter into such agreements (including underwriting agreements containing
     customary terms) and make such customary representations and warranties and
     take all such other customary actions in connection therewith in order to
     expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Transfer Restricted
     Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement as may be reasonably
     requested by any such Holder in connection with any sale or resale pursuant
     to such Registration Statement. In such connection, the Company and the
     Guarantors shall:

               (A) to the extent reasonably requested by any Holder named in any
          such Registration Statement, furnish (or in the case of paragraphs (2)
          and (3), use all of their respective commercially reasonable efforts
          to cause to be furnished) to each Holder, upon the effectiveness of
          the Shelf Registration Statement:

                    (1) a certificate in customary form, dated such date, signed
               on behalf of the Company and each Guarantor by (x) the President
               or any Vice President and (y) a principal financial or accounting
               officer of the Company, in customary form, and such Guarantor,
               confirming, as of the date thereof, the matters set forth in
               Sections 8(a), (c), (d) and (e) of the Purchase Agreement and
               such other matters as such Holders may reasonably request;

                    (2) an opinion in customary form, dated the date of
               effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, of counsel for
               the Company and the Guarantors, covering such matters as set
               forth in Sections 8(g) and (h) of the Purchase Agreement and such
               other matters as such Holder may reasonably request; and

                    (3) a customary comfort letter, dated the date of
               effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, from the
               Company's independent accountants, in the customary form and
               covering matters of the type customarily covered in comfort
               letters to underwriters in connection with


                                       13



               primary underwritten offerings, and covering or affirming the
               matters set forth in the comfort letters delivered pursuant to
               Section 8(i) of the Purchase Agreement; and

               (B) deliver such other documents and certificates as may be
          reasonably requested by the Holders named in any such Registration
          Statement and as are customarily delivered in similar offerings to
          evidence compliance with the matters covered in clause (A) above and
          with any customary conditions contained in any agreement entered into
          by the Company and the Guarantors pursuant to this clause (B);

          (xiii) prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Securities,
     use all of their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate
     with the Holders named in the applicable Registration Statement and their
     counsel in connection with the registration and qualification of the
     Transfer Restricted Securities under the state securities or blue sky laws
     of such jurisdictions as such Holders may reasonable request and use all of
     their respective commercially reasonable efforts to do any and all other
     acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such
     jurisdictions of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the
     applicable Registration Statement; provided, however, that neither the
     Company nor the Guarantors shall be required to register or qualify as a
     foreign corporation where it is not now so qualified or to take any action
     that would subject it to the service of process in suits or to taxation in
     any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject;

          (xiv) in connection with any sale of Transfer Restricted Securities
     that will result in such securities no longer being Transfer Restricted
     Securities, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation
     and delivery of certificates representing Transfer Restricted Securities to
     be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends; and to enable such
     Transfer Restricted Securities to be registered in such denominations and
     such names as the selling Holders may request at least three Business Days
     prior to such sale of Transfer Restricted Securities;

          (xv) use all of their respective commercially reasonable efforts to
     cause the disposition of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the
     Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other
     governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the
     seller or sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Transfer
     Restricted Securities other than as set forth in Section 6(c)(xiii) hereof;

          (xvi) provide a CUSIP number for all Transfer Restricted Securities
     not later than the effective date of a Registration Statement covering such
     Transfer Restricted Securities and provide the Trustee under the Indenture
     with any necessary printed certificates for the Transfer Restricted
     Securities which are in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository
     Trust Company;

          (xvii) otherwise use all of their respective commercially reasonable
     efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the
     Commission, and make generally available to its security holders with
     regard to any applicable Registration Statement, as


                                       14



     soon as practicable, a consolidated earnings statement meeting the
     requirements of Rule 158 under the Act (which need not be audited) covering
     a twelve-month period beginning after the effective date of the
     Registration Statement (as such term is defined in paragraph (c) of Rule
     158 under the Act);

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

          (xix) provide as promptly as practicable to each Holder, upon request,
     each document filed with the Commission pursuant to the requirements of
     Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

     (d) Restrictions on Holders. Each Holder agrees by acquisition of a
Transfer Restricted Security that, upon receipt of the notice referred to in
Section 6(c)(iii)(C), or any notice from the Company of the existence of any
fact of the kind described in Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof (in each case, a
"SUSPENSION NOTICE"), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of
Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement
until (x) such Holder has received copies of the supplemented or amended
Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(iv) hereof, or (y) such Holder is
advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed,
and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are
incorporated by reference in the Prospectus (in each case, the "RECOMMENCEMENT
DATE"). Each Holder receiving a Suspension Notice hereby agrees that it will
either (i) destroy any Prospectuses, other than permanent file copies, then in
such Holder's possession which have been replaced by the Company with more
recently dated Prospectuses or (ii) deliver to the Company (at the Company's
expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder's
possession of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Securities that
was current at the time of receipt of the Suspension Notice. In the event the
Company shall give any such notice, the time period regarding the effectiveness
of such Registration Statement set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as
applicable, shall be extended by a number of days equal to the number of days in
the period from and including the date of delivery of the Suspension Notice to
the Recommencement Date.

SECTION 7. REGISTRATION EXPENSES

     (a) All expenses incident to the Company's and the Guarantors' performance
of or compliance with this Agreement (other than any underwriting discounts and
commissions) will be borne by the Company, regardless of whether a Registration
Statement becomes effective, including without limitation: (i) all registration
and filing fees and expenses; (ii) all fees and expenses of compliance with
federal securities and state Blue Sky or securities laws; (iii) all expenses of
printing (including printing certificates for the Exchange Notes to be issued in
the Exchange Offer and printing of Prospectuses), messenger and delivery
services and telephone;


                                       15



(iv) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and the Guarantors
and all reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel for the Holders
of Transfer Restricted Securities; (v) all application and filing fees in
connection with listing the Exchange Notes on a national securities exchange or
automated quotation system pursuant to the requirements thereof; and (vi) all
fees and disbursements of independent certified public accountants of the
Company and the Guarantors (including the expenses of any special audit and
comfort letters required by or incident to such performance).

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

     (b) In connection with any Registration Statement required by this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement and the Shelf Registration Statement) regardless of whether a
Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company and the Guarantors will
reimburse the Initial Purchasers and the Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities who are tendering Initial Notes in the Exchange Offer and/or selling
or reselling Initial Notes or Exchange Notes pursuant to the "Plan of
Distribution" contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or
registered pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as applicable, for the
reasonable fees and disbursements of not more than one counsel, who shall be
Latham & Watkins LLP, unless another firm shall be chosen by the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities for whose
benefit such Registration Statement is being prepared; provided that the Company
and the Guarantors' reimbursement obligation with respect to such fees and
disbursements shall not exceed $25,000.

SECTION 8. INDEMNIFICATION

     (a) The Company and the Guarantors agree, jointly and severally, to
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its directors, officers and each
Person, if any, who controls such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (collectively, an "INDEMNIFIED
HOLDER"), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
judgments, and expenses (including without limitation, any reasonable legal fees
or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating,
preparing or defending any matter, including any action that could give rise to
any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or judgments) to which they or any
of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar
as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments and expenses are caused
by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained
in any Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or Prospectus (or any
amendment or supplement thereto) provided by the Company to any Holder or any
prospective purchaser of Exchange Notes or registered Initial Notes, or 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, liabilities or judgments are
caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
omission that is based upon information relating to any of the Holders furnished
in writing to the Company by any of the Holders.


                                       16



     (b) Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities agrees, severally and not
jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Guarantors, and
their respective directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls
(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act)
the Company, or the Guarantors to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity
from the Company and the Guarantors set forth in section (a) above to each of
the Indemnified Holders, but only with reference to information relating to such
Indemnified Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified
Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement. In no event shall any
Indemnified Holder, its directors, officers or any Person who controls such
Holder be liable or responsible for any amount in excess of the amount by which
the total amount received by such Indemnified Holder with respect to its sale of
Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds (i)
the amount paid by such Indemnified Holder for such Transfer Restricted
Securities and (ii) the amount of any damages that such Indemnified Holder, its
directors, officers or any Person who controls such Holder has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission.

     (c) In case any action shall be commenced involving any person in respect
of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or 8(b) (the
"INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), the indemnified party shall promptly notify the person
against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PERSON") in writing
and the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of such action, including
the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party and
the payment of all fees and expenses of such counsel, as incurred (except that
in the case of any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant
to both Sections 8(a) and 8(b), an Indemnified Holder shall not be required to
assume the defense of such action pursuant to this Section 8(c), but may employ
separate counsel and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel, except as provided below, shall be at the expense of
the Indemnified Holder). Any indemnified party shall have the right to employ
separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnified
party unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been specifically
authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnifying party
shall have failed to assume the defense of such action or employ counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party within a reasonable time after
notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the named parties to any such
action (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnified party and
the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have been advised by
such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which
are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party
(in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the
defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party). In any such case,
the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one action or separate
but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising
out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and
expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local
counsel) for all indemnified parties and all such fees and expenses shall be
reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by a
majority of the Indemnified Holders, in the case of the parties indemnified
pursuant to Section 8(a), and by the Company and Guarantors, in the case of
parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall
indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and judgments by reason of any settlement
of any action (i) effected


                                       17



with its written consent or (ii) effected without its written consent if the
settlement is entered into more than twenty Business Days after the indemnifying
party shall have received a request from the indemnified party for reimbursement
for the fees and expenses of counsel (in any case where such fees and expenses
are at the expense of the indemnifying party) and, prior to the date of such
settlement, the indemnifying party shall have failed to comply with such
reimbursement request. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written
consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement or compromise of, or
consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened
action in respect of which the indemnified party is or could have been a party
and indemnity or contribution may be or could have been sought hereunder by the
indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes
an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability on claims
that are or could have been the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not
include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to
act, by or on behalf of the indemnified party.

     (d) To the extent that the indemnification provided for in this Section 8
is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or judgments referred to therein, then each indemnifying
party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or judgments (i) in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the
Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Holders, on the other hand,
from their sale of Transfer Restricted Securities or (ii) if the allocation
provided by clause 8(d)(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 8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the
Guarantors, on the one hand, and of the Indemnified Holders, on the other hand,
in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or judgments, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors,
on the one hand, and of the Indemnified Holders, 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 Company or the
Guarantors, on the one hand, or by the Indemnified Holder, on the other hand,
and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or
payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
judgments referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees
or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating
or defending any claim or action.

     The Company, the Guarantors and each Holder agree that it would not be just
and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by
pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such
purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The
amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or judgments 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 matter, including any
action that could have given rise to such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or judgments. Notwithstanding the provisions of this


                                       18



Section 8, no Holder, or its related Indemnified Holders, its directors, its
officers or any Person, if any, who controls such Holder shall be required to
contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total received by such Holder with respect to the sale of Transfer Restricted
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds (i) the amount paid by
such Holder for such Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) the amount of any
damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders' obligations to contribute
pursuant to this Section 8(d) are several in proportion to the respective
principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by each Holder hereunder
and not joint.

SECTION 9. RULE 144A AND RULE 144

     The Company and the Guarantors agrees with each Holder, for so long as any
Transfer Restricted Securities remain outstanding and during any period in which
the Company or the Guarantors (i) is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, to make available, upon request of any Holder, to such Holder or
beneficial owner of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with any sale
thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Transfer Restricted Securities
designated by such Holder or beneficial owner, the information required by Rule
144A(d)(4) under the Act in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted
Securities pursuant to Rule 144A under the Act, and (ii) is subject to Section
13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, to make all filings required thereby in a
timely manner in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted Securities
pursuant to Rule 144.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

     (a) Remedies. The Company and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that any
failure by the Company and/or the Guarantors to comply with their respective
obligations under Sections 3 and 4 hereof may result in material irreparable
injury to the Initial Purchasers or the Holders for which there is no adequate
remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries
precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, the Initial Purchasers or
any Holder may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the
Company's and the Guarantors' obligations under Sections 3 and 4 hereof. The
Company and the Guarantors further agree to waive the defense in any action for
specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

     (b) No Inconsistent Agreements. Neither the Company nor the Guarantors
will, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with
respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the
Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.
Neither the Company has nor the Guarantors have previously entered into, nor is
currently party to, any agreement granting any registration rights with respect
to its securities to any Person that would require such securities to be
included in any Registration Statement filed hereunder. The rights granted to
the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent
with the rights granted to the holders of the Company's and the Guarantors'
securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof.


                                       19



     (c) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be
amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from
the provisions hereof may not be given unless (i) in the case of Section 5
hereof and this Section 10(c)(i), the Company has obtained the written consent
of Holders of all outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) in the
case of all other provisions hereof, the Company has obtained the written
consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer
Restricted Securities (excluding Transfer Restricted Securities held by the
Company or its Affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent
to departure from the provisions hereof that relates exclusively to the rights
of Holders whose Transfer Restricted Securities are being tendered pursuant to
the Exchange Offer, and that does not affect directly or indirectly the rights
of other Holders whose Transfer Restricted Securities are not being tendered
pursuant to such Exchange Offer, may be given by the Holders of a majority of
the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities subject to
such Exchange Offer.

     (d) Additional Guarantors. The Company shall cause any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) that becomes, prior to the
consummation of the Exchange Offer, a Guarantor in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Indenture to become a party to this Agreement as a Guarantor.
Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing statement, any entity that
becomes a Guarantor upon the consummation of the Acquisition (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement) shall become a party to this Agreement as a Guarantor. It is
understood and agreed that if, prior to the Exchange Offer, a Guarantor that has
executed this Agreement is no longer a Guarantor under the Indenture pursuant to
and in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, such Guarantor shall no
longer be a Guarantor for purposes of this Agreement.

     (e) Third Party Beneficiary. The Holders shall be third party beneficiaries
to the agreements made hereunder between the Company and the Guarantors, on the
one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the
right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent they may deem such
enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights or the rights of
Holders hereunder.

     By acquiring Transfer Restricted Securities, a Holder will be deemed to
have agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, and
their respective directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls
(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act)
to the same extent as the indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors set
forth in Section 8(a) hereof, but only with reference to information relating to
such Holder and provided in writing by such Holder for inclusion in any Shelf
Registration Statement. In no event shall any such Holder be liable or
responsible for any amount in excess of the amount by which such Holder with
respect to its sale of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Shelf
Registration Statement exceeds (i) the amount paid by such Holder for such
Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) the amount of any damages that such
Holder, its directors, officers or any Person who controls such Holder has
otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission.

     (f) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted
