2.    EXCHANGE OFFER

            federal law or a policy of the SEC, the Company shall (and shall
            cause each Guarantor with respect to its guarantee to) (i) prepare
            and file with the SEC promptly after the date hereof, but in no
            event later than the Filing Date, a registration statement (the
            "Exchange Registration Statement") on an appropriate form under the
            Securities Act with respect to an offer (the "Exchange Offer") to
            the Holders of Notes to issue and deliver to such Holders, in
            exchange for the Notes, a like principal amount of Exchange Notes,
            (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange
            Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as
            practicable after the filing thereof, but in no event later than the
            Effectiveness Date, (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to keep
            the Exchange Registration Statement effective until the consummation
            of the Exchange Offer in accordance with its terms, and


                                       4
<PAGE>
            (iv) commence the Exchange Offer and use its reasonable best efforts
            to issue on or prior to 30 Business Days after the date on which the
            Exchange Registration Statement is declared effective, Exchange
            Notes in exchange for all Notes tendered prior thereto in the
            Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer shall not be subject to any
            conditions, other than that the Exchange Offer does not violate
            applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the
            SEC.

      (b)   The Exchange Notes shall be issued under, and entitled to the
            benefits of, (i) the Indenture or a trust indenture that is
            identical to the Indenture (other than such changes as are necessary
            to comply with any requirements of the SEC to effect or maintain the
            qualifications thereof under the TIA) and (ii) the Collateral
            Agreements.

      (c)   Interest on the Exchange Notes and Private Exchange Notes will
            accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was
            paid on the Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no
            interest has been paid on the Notes, from the date of original issue
            of the Notes. Each Exchange Note and Private Exchange Note shall
            bear interest at the rate set forth thereon; provided, that interest
            with respect to the period prior to the issuance thereof shall
            accrue at the rate or rates borne by the Notes from time to time
            during such period.

      (d)   The Company may require each Holder as a condition to participation
            in the Exchange Offer to represent (i) that any Exchange Notes
            received by it will be acquired in the ordinary course of its
            business, (ii) that at the time of the commencement and consummation
            of the Exchange Offer such Holder has not entered into any
            arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in the
            distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the
            Exchange Notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act,
            (iii) that if such Holder is an affiliate of the Company within the
            meaning of the Securities Act, it will comply with the registration
            and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the
            extent applicable to it, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer,
            that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the
            distribution of the Notes and (v) if such Holder is a Participating
            Broker-Dealer, that it will deliver a Prospectus in connection with
            any resale of the Exchange Notes.

      (e)   The Company shall include within the Prospectus contained in the
            Exchange Registration Statement a section entitled "Plan of
            Distribution" which shall contain all information that the SEC may
            require with respect to the potential "underwriter" status of any
            broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3
            under the Exchange Act) of Exchange Notes received by such
            broker-dealer in the Exchange Offer for its own account in exchange
            for Notes that were acquired by it as a result of market-making or
            other trading activity (a "Participating Broker-Dealer"). Such "Plan
            of Distribution" section shall also allow, to the extent permitted
            by applicable policies and regulations of the SEC, the use of the
            Prospectus by all Persons subject to the prospectus delivery
            requirements of the Securities Act, including, to the extent so
            permitted, all Participating Broker-Dealers, and include a statement
            describing the manner in


                                       5
<PAGE>
            which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Notes.
            The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange
            Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the
            Prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such Prospectus to
            be lawfully delivered by all Persons subject to the prospectus
            delivery requirements of the Securities Act for 180 days after
            consummation of the Exchange Offer; provided, however, that (i) in
            the case where such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement
            thereto must be delivered by a Participating Broker-Dealer or the
            Initial Purchaser, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days and
            the date on which all Participating Broker-Dealers and the Initial
            Purchaser have sold all Exchange Notes held by them (unless such
            period is extended pursuant to Section 6(k) below) and (ii) the
            Company shall make such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement
            thereto available to any Participating Broker-Dealer for use in
            connection with any resale of any Exchange Notes for a period not
            less than 90 days after the consummation of the Exchange Offer (the
            "Applicable Period").

      (f)   If, upon consummation of the Exchange Offer, either the Initial
            Purchaser or AEP holds any Notes acquired by it and having the
            status of an unsold allotment in the initial distribution, the
            Company (upon the written request from the Initial Purchaser or AEP,
            as the case may be) shall, simultaneously with the delivery of the
            Exchange Notes in the Exchange Offer, issue and deliver to the
            Initial Purchaser or AEP, as the case may be, in exchange (the
            "Private Exchange") for the Notes held by the Initial Purchaser, a
            like principal amount of Senior Secured Notes that are identical to
            the Exchange Notes except for the existence of restrictions on
            transfer thereof under the Securities Act and securities laws of the
            several states of the United States (the "Private Exchange Notes")
            (and which are issued pursuant to the same indenture as the Exchange
            Notes). The Private Exchange Notes shall bear the same CUSIP number
            as the Exchange Notes.

      (g)   In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company shall:

            (i)   mail to each Holder a copy of the Prospectus forming part of
                  the Exchange Registration Statement, together with an
                  appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents;

            (ii)  utilize the services of a depository for the Exchange Offer
                  with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New
                  York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate thereof;

            (iii) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Registrable Notes at any
                  time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the
                  last Business Day on which the Exchange Offer shall remain
                  open; and

            (iv)  otherwise comply in all material respects with all applicable
                  laws.

      (h)   As soon as practicable after the close of the Exchange Offer or the
            Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Company shall:


                                       6
<PAGE>
            (i)   accept for exchange all Registrable Notes validly tendered
                  pursuant to the Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the
                  case may be, and not validly withdrawn;

            (ii)  deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Registrable Notes
                  so accepted for exchange; and

            (iii) cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each
                  Holder tendering such Registrable Notes, Exchange Notes or
                  Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, equal in principal
                  amount at maturity to the Notes of such Holder so accepted for
                  exchange.

      (i)   The Exchange Notes and the Private Exchange Notes may be issued
            under (i) the Indenture or (ii) an indenture identical in all
            material respects to the Indenture, which in either event will
            provide that the Exchange Notes will not be subject to the transfer
            restrictions or additional interest provisions set forth in the
            Indenture, that the Private Exchange Notes will be subject to the
            transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture, and that the
            Exchange Notes, the Private Exchange Notes and the Notes, if any,
            will be deemed one class of security (subject to the provisions of
            the Indenture) and entitled to participate in all the security
            granted by the Company pursuant to the Collateral Agreements and in
            any Subsidiary Guarantee (as such terms are defined in the
            Indenture) on an equal and ratable basis.

      (j)   If, (i) applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC would not
            permit the consummation of the Exchange Offer as contemplated by
            this Section 2, (ii) the Exchange Offer is not consummated within 30
            Business Days after the Effectiveness Date for any reason, (iii) any
            holder of Private Exchange Notes so requests in writing to the
            Company within 45 days after the consummation of the Exchange Offer
            or (iv) in the case of any Holder not permitted by applicable law or
            SEC policy to participate in the Exchange Offer or any Holder that
            participates in the Exchange Offer but does not receive Exchange
            Notes on the date of the exchange that may be sold without
            restriction under state and federal securities laws (other than due
            solely to the status of such Holder as an affiliate of the Company
            within the meaning of the Securities Act) and so notifies the
            Company within 45 days of consummation of the Exchange Offer, then
            the Company (and any then existing Guarantor) shall promptly deliver
            to the Holders and the Trustee written notice thereof (the "Shelf
            Notice") and shall file an Initial Shelf Registration pursuant to
            Section 3.

3.    SHELF REGISTRATION

      If a Shelf Notice is delivered pursuant to Section 2(j), then this Section
3 shall apply to all Registrable Notes. Otherwise, upon consummation of the
Exchange Offer in accordance with Section 2, the provisions of this Section 3
shall apply solely with respect to (i) Notes held by any Holder thereof not
permitted by applicable law or SEC policy to participate in the Exchange Offer
and (ii) Exchange Notes that are not freely tradeable as contemplated by Section
2(j)(iv)


                                       7
<PAGE>
hereof, provided in each case that the relevant Holder has duly notified the
Company within 45 days of the Exchange Offer as required by Section 2(j)(iv).

      (a)   Initial Shelf Registration. The Company shall as promptly as
            practicable after the date of the Shelf Notice file (and shall cause
            any then existing Guarantor to file) with the SEC a Registration
            Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
            to Rule 415 covering all of the Registrable Notes (the "Initial
            Shelf Registration"). If the Company (and any then existing
            Guarantor) has not yet filed an Exchange Registration Statement, the
            Company shall file (and shall cause any then existing Guarantor to
            file) with the SEC the Initial Shelf Registration on or prior to the
            Filing Date and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such
            Initial Shelf Registration to be declared effective under the
            Securities Act on or prior to the Effectiveness Date. Otherwise, the
            Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file (and shall
            cause any then existing Guarantor to file) with the SEC the Initial
            Shelf Registration within 30 days of the delivery of the Shelf
            Notice and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf
            Registration to be declared effective under the Securities Act as
            promptly as practicable thereafter (but in no event more than 90
            days after delivery of the Shelf Notice). The Initial Shelf
            Registration shall be on Form S-1 or another appropriate form
            permitting registration of such Registrable Notes for resale by
            Holders in the manner or manners reasonably designated by them
            (including, without limitation, one or more underwritten offerings).
            The Company and Guarantors shall not permit any securities other
            than the Registrable Notes to be included in any Shelf Registration.
            No Holder of Registrable Notes shall be entitled to include any of
            its Registrable Notes in any Shelf Registration pursuant to this
            Agreement unless such Holder furnishes to the Company and the
            Trustee in writing, within 20 days after receipt of a written
            request therefor, such information as the Company and the Trustee
            after conferring with counsel with regard to information relating to
            Holders that would be required by the SEC to be included in such
            Shelf Registration or Prospectus included therein, may reasonably
            request for inclusion in any Shelf Registration or Prospectus
            included therein. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts
            to keep the Initial Shelf Registration continuously effective under
            the Securities Act until the date which is two years from the
            Closing Date (the "Effectiveness Period"), or such shorter period
            ending when (i) all Registrable Notes covered by the Initial Shelf
            Registration have been sold in the manner set forth and as
            contemplated in the Initial Shelf Registration or (ii) a Subsequent
            Shelf Registration covering all of the Registrable Notes covered by
            and not sold under the Initial Shelf Registration or an earlier
            Subsequent Shelf Registration has been declared effective under the
            Securities Act.

      (b)   Subsequent Shelf Registrations. If the Initial Shelf Registration or
            any Subsequent Shelf Registration (as defined below) ceases to be
            effective for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period
            (other than because of the sale of all of the securities registered
            thereunder), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
            obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the
            effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall within 30 days of such
            cessation of effectiveness amend such Shelf Registration in a manner
            designed to obtain the


                                       8
<PAGE>
            withdrawal of the order suspending the effectiveness thereof, or
            file (and cause any then existing Guarantor to file) an additional
            "shelf" Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of
            the Registrable Notes (a "Subsequent Shelf Registration"). If a
            Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Company shall use its
            reasonable best efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration
            to be declared effective as soon as practicable after such filing
            and to keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration continuously
            effective for a period equal to the number of days in the
            Effectiveness Period less the aggregate number of days during which
            the Initial Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration
            was previously continuously effective. As used herein the term
            "Shelf Registration" means the Initial Shelf Registration and any
            Subsequent Shelf Registrations.

      (c)   Supplements and Amendments. The Company shall promptly supplement
            and amend any Shelf Registration if required by the rules,
            regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used
            for such Shelf Registration, if required by the Securities Act, or
            if reasonably requested in writing by the Holders of a majority in
            aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes covered by such
            Shelf Registration or by any underwriter of such Registrable Notes.

4.    ADDITIONAL INTEREST

      (a)   The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holders of Registrable
            Notes will suffer damages if the Company fails to fulfill its
            material obligations under Section 2 or Section 3 hereof and that it
            would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with
            precision. Accordingly, the Company agrees to pay additional cash
            interest on the Notes ("Additional Interest") under the
            circumstances and to the extent set forth below (each of which shall
            be given independent effect):

            (i)   if neither the Exchange Registration Statement nor the Initial
                  Shelf Registration has been filed on or prior to the Filing
                  Date, Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes over and
                  above any stated interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the
                  principal amount of such Notes for the first 90 days
                  immediately following the Filing Date, such Additional
                  Interest rate increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum at
                  the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period, subject to the
                  proviso in the last sentence of this paragraph;

            (ii)  if neither the Exchange Registration Statement nor the Initial
                  Shelf Registration is declared effective on or prior to the
                  Effectiveness Date, Additional Interest shall accrue on the
                  Notes over and above any stated interest at a rate of 0.25%
                  per annum of the principal amount of such Notes for the first
                  90 days immediately following the Effectiveness Date, such
                  Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional 0.25% per
                  annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period,
                  subject to the proviso in the last sentence of this paragraph;


                                       9
<PAGE>
            (iii) if (A) the Company (and any then existing Guarantor) has not
                  exchanged Exchange Notes for all Notes validly tendered in
                  accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer on or prior to
                  30 Business Days after the Effectiveness Date, (B) the
                  Exchange Registration Statement ceases to be effective at any
                  time prior to the time that the Exchange Offer is consummated,
                  (C) if applicable, a Shelf Registration has been declared
                  effective and such Shelf Registration ceases to be effective
                  at any time prior to the second anniversary of its effective
                  date (other than such time as all Notes have been disposed of
                  thereunder) and is not declared effective again within 30
                  days, or (D) pending the announcement of a material corporate
                  transaction, the Company issues a written notice pursuant to
                  Section 6(e)(v) or (vi) that a Shelf Registration Statement or
                  Exchange Registration Statement is unusable and the aggregate
                  number of days in any 365-day period for which all such
                  notices issued or required to be issued, have been, or were
                  required to be, in effect exceeds 120 days in the aggregate or
                  30 days consecutively, in the case of a Shelf Registration
                  statement, or 15 days in the aggregate in the case of an
                  Exchange Registration Statement, then Additional Interest
                  shall accrue on the Notes, over and above any stated interest,
                  at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such
                  Notes commencing on (w) the 31st Business Day after the
                  Effectiveness Date, in the case of (A) above, or (x) the date
                  the Exchange Registration Statement ceases to be effective
                  without being declared effective again within 30 days, in the
                  case of clause (B) above, or (y) the day such Shelf
                  Registration ceases to be effective in the case of (C) above,
                  or (z) the day the Exchange Registration Statement or Shelf
                  Registration ceases to be usable in case of clause (D) above,
                  such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional
                  0.25% per annum at the beginning of each such subsequent
                  90-day period, subject to the proviso in the last sentence of
                  this paragraph;

            provided, however, that the maximum Additional Interest rate on the
            Notes may not exceed at any one time in the aggregate 0.50% per
            annum; and provided further, that (1) upon the filing of the
            Exchange Registration Statement or Initial Shelf Registration (in
            the case of (i) above), (2) upon the effectiveness of the Exchange
            Registration Statement or Initial Shelf Registration (in the case of
            (ii) above), or (3) upon the exchange of Exchange Notes for all
            Notes tendered (in the case of (iii)(A) above), or upon the
            effectiveness of the Exchange Registration Statement that had ceased
            to remain effective (in the case of clause (iii)(B) above), or upon
            the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration which had ceased to remain
            effective (in the case of (iii)(C) above), Additional Interest on
            the Notes as a result of such clause (or the relevant subclause
            thereof) or upon the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or
            Exchange Registration Statement (in the case of clause (iii)(D)
            above), as the case may be, shall cease to accrue.

      (b)   The Company shall notify the Trustee within 3 Business Days after
            each and every date on which an event occurs in respect of which
            Additional Interest is required to be paid (an "Event Date"). Any
            amounts of Additional Interest due


                                       10
<PAGE>
            pursuant to clause (a)(i), (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) of this Section 4
            will be payable in cash, on the dates and in the manner provided in
            the Indenture and whether or not any cash interest would then be
            payable on such date, commencing with the first such semi-annual
            date occurring after any such Additional Interest commences to
            accrue. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by
            multiplying the applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal
            amount of the Notes, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
            which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was
            applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day
            year comprised of twelve 30-day months and, in the case of a partial
            month, the actual number of days elapsed), and the denominator of
            which is 360.

5.    HOLD-BACK AGREEMENTS

      The Company agrees that it will not effect any public or private sale or
distribution (including a sale pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities
Act) of any securities the same as or substantially similar to those covered by
a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 or 3 hereof (other than
Additional Notes (as defined in the Indenture) issued under the Indenture), or
any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such
securities, during the 10 days prior to, and during the 90-day period beginning
on, the effective date of any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Sections
2 and 3 hereof unless the Holders of a majority in the aggregate principal
amount of the Registrable Notes to be included in such Registration Statement
consent, if the managing underwriter thereof so requests in writing.

6.    REGISTRATION PROCEDURES

      In connection with the filing of any Registration Statement pursuant to
Section 2 or 3 hereof, the Company shall effect such registrations to permit the
sale of such securities covered thereby in accordance with the intended method
or methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto and in connection with
any Registration Statement filed by the Company hereunder, the Company shall:

      (a)   Prepare and file with the SEC as soon as practicable after the date
            hereof but in any event on or prior to the Filing Date, the Exchange
            Registration Statement or if the Exchange Registration Statement is
            not filed because of the circumstances contemplated by Section 2(j),
            a Shelf Registration as prescribed by Section 3, and use its
            reasonable best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement to
            become effective and remain effective as provided herein; provided
            that, if (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 or
            (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement
            filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the
            Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell
            Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period before filing any
            Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or
            supplements thereto the Company shall, if requested, furnish to and
            afford the Holders of the Registrable Notes to be registered
            pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, or each Participating
            Broker-Dealer and to their counsel and the managing underwriters, if
            any, a reasonable opportunity to review copies of all such


                                       11
<PAGE>
            documents (including copies of any documents to be incorporated by
            reference therein and all exhibits thereto) proposed to be filed (in
            each case at least 5 Business Days prior to such filing). The
            Company shall not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus
            or any amendments or supplements thereto in respect of which the
            Holders must provide information for the inclusion therein without
            the Holders being afforded an opportunity to review such
            documentation if the holders of a majority in aggregate principal
            amount of the Registrable Notes covered by such Registration
            Statement, or any such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may
            be, their counsel, or the managing underwriters, if any, shall
            reasonably object in writing on a timely basis.

      (b)   Provide an indenture trustee for the Registrable Notes, the Exchange
            Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and cause
            the Indenture (or other indenture relating to the Registrable Notes)
            to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date of
            the first Registration Statement; and in connection therewith, to
            effect such changes to such indenture as may be required for such
            indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the
            TIA; and execute, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such
            trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such
            changes, and all other forms and documents required to be filed with
            the SEC to enable such indenture to be so qualified in a timely
            manner.

      (c)   Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective
            amendments to each Shelf Registration or Exchange Registration
            Statement, as the case may be, as may be necessary to keep such
            Registration Statement continuously effective for the Effectiveness
            Period or the Applicable Period, as the case may be; cause the
            related Prospectus to be supplemented by any Prospectus supplement
            required by applicable law, and as so supplemented to be filed
            pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force)
            promulgated under the Securities Act; and comply with the provisions
            of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act applicable to them with
            respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
            Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so
            supplemented and with respect to the subsequent resale of any
            securities being sold by a Participating Broker-Dealer covered by
            any such Prospectus. The Company shall not, during the Applicable
            Period, voluntarily take any action that would result in selling
            Holders of the Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement
            or Participating Broker-Dealers seeking to sell Exchange Notes not
            being able to sell such Registrable Notes or such Exchange Notes
            during that period, unless such action is required by applicable
            law, rule or regulation or permitted by this Agreement.

      (d)   Furnish to such selling Holders and Participating Broker-Dealers who
            so request in writing (i) upon the Company's receipt, a copy of the
            order of the SEC declaring such Registration Statement and any post
            effective amendment thereto effective, (ii) such reasonable number
            of copies of such Registration Statement and of each amendment and
            supplement thereto (in each case including any documents
            incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits) and (iii) such


                                       12
<PAGE>
            reasonable number of copies of the Prospectus included in such
            Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus) and
            each amendment and supplement thereto, and such reasonable number of
            copies of the final Prospectus as filed by the Company pursuant to
            Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, in conformity with the
            requirements of the Securities Act and each amendment and supplement
            thereto. The Company hereby consents to the use of the Prospectus by
            each of the selling Holders of Registrable Notes or each such
            Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, and the
            underwriters or agents, if any, and dealers, if any, in connection
            with the offering and sale of the Registrable Notes covered by, or
            the sale by Participating Broker-Dealers of the Exchange Notes
            pursuant to, such Prospectus and any amendment thereto.

      (e)   If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a
            Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
            pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the
            Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell
            Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period relating thereto, the
            Company shall notify in writing the selling Holders of Registrable
            Notes, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be,
            their counsel and the managing underwriters, if any, promptly (but
            in any event within 2 Business Days) (i) when a Prospectus or any
            Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed,
            and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective
            amendment, when the same has become effective (including in such
            notice a written statement that any Holder may, upon request,
            obtain, without charge, one conformed copy of such Registration
            Statement or post-effective amendment including financial statements
            and schedules, documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
            by reference and exhibits), (ii) of the issuance by the SEC of any
            stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement
            or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any Prospectus
            or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) if at
            any time when a Prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be
            delivered in connection with sales of the Registrable Notes the
            representations and warranties of the Company contained in any
            agreement (including any underwriting agreement) contemplated by
            Section 6(n) hereof cease to be true and correct, (iv) of the
            receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the
            suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of a
            Registration Statement or any of the Registrable Notes or the
            Exchange Notes to be sold by any Participating Broker-Dealer for
            offer or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening
            of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the happening of any
            event, the existence of any condition of any information becoming
            known that makes any statement made in such Registration Statement
            or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be
            incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or
            that requires the making of any changes in, or amendments or
            supplements to, such Registration Statement, Prospectus or documents
            so that, in the case of the Registration Statement and the
            Prospectus, it will 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 light of the
            circumstances under which they were made, not misleading


                                       13
<PAGE>
            and (vi) of any reasonable determination by the Company that a
            post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be
            appropriate.

      (f)   Use its reasonable best 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 or suspending
            the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the
            Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes to be sold by any
            Participating Broker-Dealer, for sale in any jurisdiction, and, if
            any such order is issued, to use its reasonable best efforts to
            obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible
            date.

      (g)   If (A) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 or (B) a
            Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
            pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the
            Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell
            Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period or (C) reasonably
            requested in writing by the managing underwriters, if any, or the
            Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
            Registrable Notes being sold in connection with an underwritten
            offering, (i) promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or
            post-effective amendment such information or revisions to
            information therein relating to such underwriters or selling Holders
            as the managing underwriters, if any, or such Holders or their
            counsel reasonably request in writing to be included or made therein
            and (ii) make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or
            such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the
            Company has received notification of the matters to be incorporated
            in such Prospectus supplements or post-effective amendment.

      (h)   Prior to any public offering of Registrable Notes or any delivery of
            a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Registration Statement by any
            Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during
            the Applicable Period, use its reasonable best efforts to register
            or qualify, and to cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable
            Notes or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be,
            the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection
            with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such
            registration or qualification) of such Registrable Notes or Exchange
            Notes, as the case may be, for offer and sale under the securities
            or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as
            any selling Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer or any managing
            underwriter or underwriters, if any, reasonably request in writing;
            provided that where Exchange Notes held by Participating

            to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential at its
            expense.

            Trustee for the benefit of all Holders participating in the Exchange
            Offer or Private Exchange, as the case may be, to the effect that

            executed and delivered the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange
            Notes, as the case may be, and the Indenture, (ii) the Exchange
            Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and the

            and the existing Guarantors in accordance with their respective
            terms, except as such enforcement may be subject to customary United
            States and foreign exceptions and (iii) all obligations of the
            Company and the existing Guarantors under the Exchange Notes or the
            Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and the Indenture are
            secured to the same extent as the Notes.

            (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for
            the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may
            be, the Company shall mark, or caused to be marked, on such
            Registrable Notes that the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange
            Notes, as the case may be, are being issued as substitute evidence
            of the indebtedness originally evidenced by the Registrable Notes;
            provided that in no event shall such Registrable Notes be marked as
            paid or otherwise satisfied.

            6(e)(ii), 6(e)(iv), 6(e)(v), or 6(e)(vi), such Holder will forthwith
            discontinue disposition of such Registrable Notes covered by a
            Registration Statement and such Participating Broker-Dealer will
            forthwith discontinue disposition of such Exchange Notes pursuant to

            supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(k), or
            until it is advised in writing (the "Advice") by the Company that
            the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and has
            received copies of any amendments or supplements thereto and, if so
            directed by the Company, such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer,
            as the case may be, will deliver to the Company all copies, other
            than permanent file copies, then in such Holder's or Participating
            Broker-Dealer's possession, of the Prospectus covering such
            Registrable Notes current at the time of the receipt of such notice.
            In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the Applicable

            such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
            or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors
            and partners of each such Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer and
            controlling person from and against any losses, claims, damages,
            liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs
            of preparation and reasonable attorneys' fees as provided in this
            Section 8) and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
            costs and expenses incurred in connection with investigating,
            preparing, pursuing or defending against any of the foregoing)
            (collectively, "Losses"), insofar as


                                       20
<PAGE>
            such Losses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
            alleged untrue statement of a material fact in any Registration
            Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, or in any amendment or
            supplement thereto, or in any preliminary prospectus, or any
            omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
            required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
            therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
            not misleading, except insofar as such Losses result primarily from
            information relating to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer
            and furnished in writing to the Company (or reviewed and approved in
            writing) by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer or their
            counsel expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the
            Company and the Guarantors will not be liable to any Indemnified
            Party (as defined below) under this Section 8 to the extent Losses
            resulted primarily from an untrue statement or omission or alleged
            untrue statement or omission that was contained or made in any
            preliminary prospectus and corrected in the Prospectus or any
            amendment or supplement thereto if (i) any such Losses resulted from
            an action, claim or suit by any Person who purchased Registrable
            Notes or Exchange Notes which are the subject thereof from such
            Indemnified Party and (ii) it is established in the related
            proceeding that such Indemnified Party failed to deliver or provide
            a copy of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) to such Person
            with or prior to the confirmation of the sale of such Registrable
            Notes or Exchange Notes sold to such Person if required by
            applicable law, unless such failure to deliver or provide a copy of
            the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) was a result of
            noncompliance by the Company with Section 6 of this Agreement. The
            Company and the Guarantors also agree to indemnify underwriters,
            selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry
            professionals participating in the distribution, their officers,
            directors, agents and employees and each Person who controls such
            Persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
            Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided
            above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders or the
            Participating Broker-Dealer.

      (b)   Indemnification by Holder. Each Holder shall indemnify and hold
            harmless the Company, the Guarantors, their respective directors and
            each Person, if any, who controls the Company (within the meaning of
            Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20(a) of the Exchange
            Act), and the directors, officers and partners of such controlling
            persons, from and against all Losses insofar as such Losses arise
            out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
            statement of a material fact in any Registration Statement,
            Prospectus or form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement
            thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged
            omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
            therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of
            the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading insofar
            as such Losses are finally judicially determined by a court of
            competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from any untrue
            statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact, alleged
            omission of any material fact contained in or omitted from any
            information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company
            expressly for use therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no
            event shall the liability of any selling Holder be greater in amount
            than the dollar amount of the


                                       21
<PAGE>
            proceeds (net of payment of all expenses) received by such Holder
            upon the sale of the Registrable Notes giving rise to such
            indemnification obligation.

      (c)   Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding shall be
            brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity
            hereunder (an "Indemnified Party"), such Indemnified Party shall
            promptly notify the party or parties from which such indemnity is
            sought (the "Indemnifying Party" or "Indemnifying Parties", as
            applicable) in writing; provided, that the failure to so notify the
            Indemnifying Parties shall not relieve the Indemnifying Parties from
            any obligation or liability except to the extent (but only to the
            extent) that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent
            jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal) that the
            Indemnifying Parties have been prejudiced materially by such
            failure.

      The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written
notice to an Indemnified Party, within 20 Business Days after receipt of written
notice from such Indemnified Party of such proceeding, to assume, at its
expense, the defense of any such proceeding, provided, that an Indemnified Party
shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such proceeding and to
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or parties unless: (1) the
Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the
Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such
proceeding or shall have failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such Indemnified Party; or (3) the named parties to any such proceeding
(including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party or any of its affiliates or controlling persons, and such
Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or
more defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are in addition to, or in
conflict with, those defenses available to the Indemnifying Party or such
affiliate or controlling person (in which case, if such Indemnified Party
notifies the Indemnifying Parties in writing that it elects to employ separate
counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnifying Parties
shall not have the right to assume the defense and the reasonable fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; it
being understood, however, that, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection
with any one such proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related
proceedings 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 (together with appropriate local counsel) at any
time for such Indemnified Party).

      No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any such
proceeding effected without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld, but if settled with its written consent, or if there be a final
judgment for the plaintiff in any such proceeding, each Indemnifying Party
jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations set
forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and
against any and all Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment. The
Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving
by the claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a release, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, from all liability
in respect


                                       22
<PAGE>
of such proceeding for which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to
indemnification hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party
thereto).

      (d)   Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8
            is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold
            such Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses in respect of which
            this Section 8 would otherwise apply by its terms (other than by
            reason of exceptions provided in this Section 8), then each
            applicable Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such
            Indemnified Party, shall have a joint and several obligation to
            contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party
            as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to
            reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one
            hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in connection
            with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such
            Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
            relative fault of such Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and
            Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall be determined by
            reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged
            untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission
            to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such
            Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative
            intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct
            or prevent any such statement or omission. The amount paid or
            payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any Losses shall be
            deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses incurred by
            such party in connection with any proceeding, to the extent such
            party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the
            indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) was available
            to such party.

      The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by other method of allocation that does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), a selling Holder shall not
be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of such
Holder's Maximum Contribution Amount. A selling Holder's "Maximum Contribution
Amount" shall equal the excess of (i) the aggregate proceeds received by such
Holder pursuant to the sale of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes over
(ii) the aggregate amount of damages that 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.

      The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 8 are
in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the
Indemnified Parties.

9.    RULES 144 AND 144A

      The Company covenants that it shall file the reports required to be filed
by it (if so required) under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely
manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it
will, upon the written request of any Holder


                                       23
<PAGE>
of Registrable Notes, make publicly available other information necessary to
permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 and 144A. Upon the request of any Holder, the
Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has
complied with such information and requirements.

10.   UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS OF REGISTRABLE NOTES

      If any of the Registrable Notes covered by any Shelf Registration are to
be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers
and manager or managers that will manage the offering will be selected by the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Registrable Notes
included in such offering; provided, however, that such investment banker or
investment bankers and manager or managers must be reasonably acceptable to the
Company.

      No Holder of Registrable Notes may participate in any underwritten
registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder's
Registrable Notes on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements
approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b)
completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such
underwriting arrangements.

11.   MISCELLANEOUS

      (a)   No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered, as of the
            date hereof, and the Company shall not enter, after the date of this
            Agreement, into any agreement with respect to any of its securities
            that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of
            Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the
            provisions hereof. The Company has not entered and will not enter
            into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that will
            grant to any Person piggy-back rights with respect to a Registration
            Statement.

      (b)   Adjustments Affecting Registrable Notes. The Company shall not,
            directly or indirectly, take any action with respect to the
            Registrable Notes as a class that would adversely affect the ability
            of the Holders to include such Registrable Notes in a registration
            undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

      (c)   Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be
            amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to
            departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, otherwise
            than with the prior written consent of the Holders of not less than
            a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
            Registrable Notes in circumstances that would adversely affect any
            Holders of Registrable Notes; provided, however, that Section 8 and
            this Section 11(c) may not be amended, modified or supplemented
            without the prior written consent of each Holder. 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 of Registrable Notes whose securities are being
            tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer or sold pursuant to a Notes


                                       24
<PAGE>
            Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly
            affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of
            Registrable Notes may be given by Holders of at least a majority in
            aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being tendered
            or being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Notes Registration
            Statement.

            counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts,

      (g)   Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of

            ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO
            PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAW. THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
            SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN
            THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK OR ANY FEDERAL

            EXTENT IT MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY
            AND ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF

            COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT
            IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. THE

<PAGE>
            SAID ADDRESS, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH
            MAILING. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY HOLDER TO
            SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE
            LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE COMPANY IN ANY
            OTHER JURISDICTION.

      (i)   Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of
            this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction 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, and the parties hereto shall use their best 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 is hereby stipulated and
            declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have
            executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions
            without including any of such that may be hereafter declared
            invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

      (j)   Securities Held by the Company or Its Affiliates. Whenever the
            consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of
            Securities is required hereunder, Securities held by the Company or
            its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the
            Securities Act) shall not be counted in determining whether such
            consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required
            percentage.

      (k)   Third Party Beneficiaries. Holders and Participating Broker-Dealers
            are intended third party beneficiaries of this Agreement and this
            Agreement may be enforced by such Persons.

      (l)   Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Purchase
            Agreement, the Indenture and the Collateral Agreements, is intended
            by the parties as a final and exclusive statement of the agreement
            and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject
            matter contained herein and therein and any and all prior oral or
            written agreements, representations, or warranties, contracts,
            understanding, correspondence, conversations and memoranda between
            the Initial Purchaser on the one hand and the Company on the other,
