the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if
any, provided for in this Indenture (including any covenant compliance with
which constitutes a condition precedent) relating to the proposed action have
been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such
counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except

relating to such particular application or request, no additional certificate or
opinion need be furnished.

<PAGE>

                                       18


          Every certificate or opinion (other than the certificates required by
Section 1013) with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided
for in this Indenture shall include:

          (a) a statement that each individual signing such certificate or
     opinion has read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein
     relating thereto;

          (b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or
     investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such
     certificate or opinion are based;

          (c) a statement that, in the opinion of each such individual, he has
     made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to
     express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition

          (d) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such individual,
     such condition or covenant has been complied with.

          SECTION 104. FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO TRUSTEE.

          In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or
covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all
such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such
Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

          Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company may be based,
insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or
representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are
erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as
it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or
representations by, an officer or officers of the Company stating that the
information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the
Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should
know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such
matters are erroneous.

applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

          SECTION 105. ACTS OF HOLDERS.

Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in

<PAGE>

                                       19


person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or
instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly
required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action
embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the
"Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution
of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be
sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Trust Indenture Act
Section 315) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the
manner provided in this Section 105.

instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner that the Trustee
deems sufficient.

authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may,
at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record
date for the determination of such Holders entitled to give such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the
Company shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding Trust Indenture Act
Section 316(c), any such record date shall be the record date specified in or
pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not more than 30 days
prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and
no later than the date such solicitation is completed.

          If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after
such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on
such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining
whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Securities then Outstanding have
authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for this purpose the
Securities then Outstanding shall be computed as of such record date; provided
that no such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other Act by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless
it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later
than six months after the record date.

          (e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other Act by the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder
of the same Security or the Holder of every Security issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in
respect of anything done, suffered or omitted to be done by the Trustee, any
Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such
action is made upon such Security.

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

          (a) the Trustee by any Holder, the agents of the Banks or the Company
     shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished
     or delivered, in writing (which may be via facsimile), to or with the
     Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust
     Administration; or

          (b) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient
     for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if
     made, given, furnished or delivered in writing to the Company addressed to
     it c/o Cablevision Systems Corporation, 1111 Stewart Avenue, Bethpage, New
     York 11714, Attention: Secretary, or at any other address previously
     furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

          SECTION 107. NOTICE TO HOLDERS; WAIVER.

          Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected
by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later
than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the
giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed,
to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Holders. Any notice when mailed to a Holder in the aforesaid
manner shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder whether
or not actually received by such Holder.

          Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice
may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either
before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such
notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such
filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver.

          In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by
reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of any event
as required by any provision of this Indenture, then any method of giving such
notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a
sufficient giving of such notice.

          SECTION 108. CONFLICT OF ANY PROVISION OF INDENTURE WITH TRUST
INDENTURE ACT.

          If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits,
qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by Trust Indenture Act Sections
310 to 318, inclusive, or conflicts with any provision (an "incorporated
provision") required by or deemed to be included in this Indenture by operation
of such Trust Indenture Act Sections, such imposed duties or incorporated
provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes
any

<PAGE>

                                       21


provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the
latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or
excluded, as the case may be.

          SECTION 109. EFFECT OF HEADINGS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS.

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

          SECTION 110. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

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

          SECTION 111. SEPARABILITY CLAUSE.

          In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

          SECTION 112. BENEFITS OF INDENTURE.

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

          SECTION 113. GOVERNING LAW.

          This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to
conflicts of laws principles.

          This Indenture is subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act
that are required to be part of this Indenture and shall, to the extent
applicable, be governed by such provisions.

          SECTION 114. LEGAL HOLIDAYS.

          In any case where any Interest Payment Date, any date established for
payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section 307, or any Maturity with
respect to any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any
other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest or
principal need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding
Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment
Date, or date established for payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section
307, or Maturity, and no interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for
the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, or date established for
payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section 307, or Maturity, as the case
may be, to the next succeeding Business Day.

          SECTION 115. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS.

          A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company
shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the
Securities or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by
reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting any of

          Cablevision Systems Corporation, a Delaware corporation (herein called
the "Company", which term includes any successor entity under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
_________________ or registered assigns the principal sum of ______ Dollars on
April 15, 2012, at the office or agency of the Company referred to below, and to
pay interest thereon on [ ]**, and semiannually thereafter, on April 15 and
October 15 in each year from the Securities Issue Date or from the most recent
Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for at
the rate of 8% per annum

----------
*    Include only for Exchange Securities.

**   In the case of an Initial Security, insert October 15, 2004. In the case of
     any Security other than an Initial Security, insert the relevant Initial
     Interest Payment Date.

until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for, and (to the extent
lawful) to pay on demand interest on any overdue interest at the rate borne by
the Securities from the date of the Interest Payment Date on which such overdue
interest becomes payable to the date payment of such interest has been made or
duly provided for.

          [The Holder of this Security is entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement, dated April 6, 2004 (the "Registration Rights
Agreement"), between the Company and the Initial Purchasers named therein. In
the event that an exchange offer (the "Exchange Offer") for this Initial
Security is not consummated or a registration statement under the Securities Act
with respect to resales of this Security (the "Shelf Registration Statement") is
not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to May 11, 2005, in either
case, in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the aforesaid
interest rate borne by this Security shall be increased by one-quarter of one
percent per annum for the first 90 days following May 11, 2005. Such interest
rate shall increase by an additional one-quarter of one percent per annum
thereafter, up to a maximum aggregate increase of one half of one percent per
annum. Upon the consummation of the Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a
Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, the interest rate borne by
this Security shall be reduced to 8% per annum.]***

          If any interest has accrued on this Security in respect of any period
prior to the issuance of this Security, such interest shall be payable in
respect of such period at the rate or rates borne by the Predecessor Security
surrendered in exchange for this Security from time to time during such period.
The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date shall, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the
Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
interest, which shall be the April 1 or October 1 (whether or not a Business
Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such
interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for, and interest on such
defaulted interest at the interest rate borne by this Security, to the extent
lawful, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record
Date, and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the
Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required
by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Payment of the
principal of and interest on this Security shall be made at the office or agency
of the Company maintained for that purpose in The City of New York, or at such
other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such purpose, in
such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment
is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that
payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to
the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the
Security Register.

          Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security
set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth

          SECTION 203. FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY.

          This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company designated as its 8% [Series B]* Senior Notes due 2012 (herein called
the "Securities"), which may be issued under an indenture (herein called the
"Indenture") dated as of April 6, 2004, between the Company and The Bank of New
York, trustee (herein called the "Trustee", which term includes any successor
trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,
limitations of rights, duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the
Company, the Trustee, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of
the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on
the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to
$1,000,000,000; provided, however, that the Company may from time to time,
without notice to or the consent of the Holders of Securities, create and issue
further Securities of this series (the "Additional Securities") having the same
terms and ranking equally and ratably with the Securities of this series in all
respects and with the same CUSIP number as the Securities of this series, or in
all respects except for payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of
such Additional Securities or except for the first payment of interest following
the issue date of such Additional Securities. Any Additional Securities shall be
consolidated and form a single series with the Securities and shall have the
same terms as to status, redemption and otherwise as the Securities. Any
Additional Securities may be issued pursuant to authorization provided by a
resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, a supplement to the
Indenture, or under an Officers' Certificate pursuant to the Indenture. No
Additional Securities may be issued if an Event of Default has occurred with
respect to the Securities of this series.

          [This Security is exchangeable under certain circumstances as provided
in the Indenture for the Company's 8% Series B Senior Notes due 2012 (herein
called the "Exchange Securities"), issued under the Indenture. Unless the
context otherwise requires, the Securities and Exchange Securities shall
constitute one series for all purposes under the Indenture, including without
limitation amendments and waivers.]**

          At its option, the Company may redeem this Security, in whole or in
part, at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to the
greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed, or
(b) as determined by a Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the
remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including
any Liquidated Damages or any portion of such payments of interest accrued to
the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis
(assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted
Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid
interest to the Redemption Date. Any redemption of this Security shall be made
pursuant to the provisions of Sections 1101 through 1106 of the Indenture.

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

Indenture.

          The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a)
the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Security and (b) certain
restrictive covenants and the related Defaults and Events of Default, in each
case, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein,
which provisions apply to this Security.

          This Security does not have the benefit of any sinking fund
obligations.

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

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

          As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable on the Security
Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Security for registration of
transfer at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in
The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument
of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly
executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the
same aggregate principal amount, shall be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

          The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the
Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities
are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of a
different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the
same.

          No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or other
governmental charges payable in connection with any registration of transfer or
exchange.

                                       27


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

          This Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of laws
principles thereof.

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

          SECTION 206. FORM OF LEGEND FOR BOOK-ENTRY SECURITIES.

          Any Global Security authenticated and delivered hereunder shall bear a
legend (which would be in addition to any other legends required in the case of
a Restricted Security) in substantially the following form:

          THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE
     HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITORY OR A
     NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR
     A SECURITY REGISTERED, AND NO TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY IN WHOLE OR IN PART
     MAY BE REGISTERED, IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN SUCH DEPOSITORY OR
     ITS NOMINEE EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.

          UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
     OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (55 WATER STREET, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10041)
     TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR
     PAYMENT AND SUCH CERTIFICATE ISSUED IN EXCHANGE FOR THIS CERTIFICATE IS
     REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO., OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS REQUESTED BY AN
     AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, ANY TRANSFER,
     PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS
     WRONGFUL, SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST
     HEREIN.

                                  ARTICLE THREE

                                 THE SECURITIES

          SECTION 301. TITLE AND TERMS.

          The aggregate principal amount of Initial Securities that may be
authenticated and

<PAGE>

                                       31


delivered under this Indenture is limited to $1,000,000,000 and the aggregate
principal amount of Exchange Securities and Additional Securities is unlimited,
except, in each case, for Securities authenticated and delivered upon
registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities
pursuant to Section 303, 304, 305, 306 or 906.

          The Initial Securities and the Additional Securities, if any, shall be
known and designated as the "8% Senior Notes due 2012" and the Exchange
Securities shall be known and designated as the "8% Series B Senior Notes due
2012" of the Company. Their Stated Maturity shall be April 15, 2012, and they
shall bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum (except as otherwise provided
for in the form of Security) from the relevant Securities Issue Date, or the
most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for on a given Security or a Security surrendered in exchange for such
Security, as the case may be, payable on the relevant Initial Interest Payment
Date (as defined below) and semiannually thereafter on April 15 and October 15
of each year and at said Stated Maturity, until the principal thereof is paid or
duly provided for. The term "Initial Interest Payment Date" means (a) with
respect to any Security other than the Initial Securities, the first April 15 or
October 15 occurring after the Securities Issue Date for such Security and (b)
with respect to each Initial Security, October 15, 2004. The Initial Securities,
the Exchange Securities and any Additional Securities issued hereunder shall
rank pari passu.

          The principal of and interest on the Securities shall be payable at
the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in The City of
New York, or at such other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained
for such purpose; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company, cash
interest may be paid by check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled
thereto as such addresses shall appear on the Security Register.

          The Securities are subject to redemption at the option of the Company
on terms and in the manner set forth in Sections 1101 through 1106 hereof.

          At the election of the Company, the entire indebtedness represented by
the Securities or certain of the Company's obligations and covenants and certain
Events of Default thereunder may be defeased as provided in Article Twelve.

          The Securities shall be senior unsecured obligations of the Company
and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future
unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company.

          SECTION 302. DENOMINATIONS.

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

          SECTION 303. EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION, DELIVERY AND DATING.

          The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any one
of the following: its Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, one of its Vice
Chairmen, its President or one of its Vice Presidents and attested by one of its
Vice Presidents or its Secretary or one of its

<PAGE>

                                       32


Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities
may be manual or facsimile.

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

          The Trustee shall (upon Company Order) authenticate and deliver (a)
the Initial Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of up
to $1,000,000,000, (b) the Exchange Securities for issue only in a registered
Exchange Offer pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement for a like
principal amount of the Initial Securities or Additional Securities, if any, and
(c) Additional Securities as set forth below.

          Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

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

          In case the Company, pursuant to Article Eight, shall be consolidated
or merged with or into any other Person or shall convey, transfer, lease or
otherwise dispose of substantially all of its properties and assets to any
Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving
such merger, or into which the Company shall have been merged, or the successor
Person which shall have received a conveyance, transfer, Lease or other
disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto
with the Trustee pursuant to Article Eight, any of the Securities authenticated
or delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, Lease or
other disposition may, from time to time, at the request of the successor
Person, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the successor
Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but
otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Securities surrendered for such
exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon written order of
the successor Person, shall authenticate and deliver Securities as specified in
such request for the purpose of such exchange. If Securities shall at any time
be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to
this Section 303 in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of
transfer of any Securities, such successor Person, at the option of any Holder
but without expense to such Holder, shall provide for the exchange of all
Securities at the time Outstanding held by such Holder for Securities
authenticated and delivered in such new name.

          Except as described below, the Securities shall be deposited with, or
on behalf of, the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or
the nominee of the Depository in the form of one or more global note
certificates (each a "Rule 144A Global Security"), for credit to the respective
accounts of the beneficial owners of the Securities represented thereby. The

<PAGE>

                                       33


Rule 144A Global Securities shall bear the legend set forth in Section 206 and,
in the case of Restricted Securities, the legend set forth in Section 205.

          Securities purchased by persons outside the United States pursuant to
sales in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act shall be
deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depository, and registered in the name of
the Depository or the nominee of the Depository in the form of one or more
global note certificates (each a "Regulation S Global Security"), for credit to
the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of the Securities represented
thereby (or such other accounts as they may direct), provided that upon such
deposit all such Securities shall be credited to or through accounts maintained
at the Depository by or on behalf of the Euroclear System or Cedel Bank, S.A.
Securities represented by a Regulation S Global Security shall not be
exchangeable for Securities in registered definitive form (each a "Physical
Security") until the expiration of the "40-day restricted period" within the
meaning of Rule 903(c)(3) of Regulation S under the Securities Act. The
Regulation S Global Securities shall bear the legend set forth in Section 206
and, in the case of Restricted Securities, the legend set forth in Section 205.

          The Company may, subject to Article Ten of this Indenture and
applicable law, issue under this Indenture Additional Securities and Exchange
Securities therefor; provided, however, that the Company may not issue any
Additional Securities if an Event of Default with respect to any Outstanding
Securities shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such issuance.
All Securities issued under this Indenture shall be treated as a single class
for all purposes under this Indenture.

          SECTION 304. TEMPORARY SECURITIES.

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

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

          SECTION 305. REGISTRATION, REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

          The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other
office or agency designated

<PAGE>

                                       34


pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes referred to as the "Security
Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of
Securities. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed "Security Registrar" for
the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein
provided. Such Security Register shall distinguish between Initial Securities,
Exchange Securities and Additional Securities.

          Except as otherwise described in this Article Three, upon surrender
for registration of transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the
Company designated pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose, the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any
authorized denomination or denominations and of a like aggregate principal
amount.

          At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other
Securities of any authorized denomination or denominations and of a like
aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at
such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive; provided
that no exchange of Initial Securities or Additional Securities for Exchange
Securities shall occur until an Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall have
been declared effective by the Commission, the Trustee shall have received an
Officers' Certificate confirming that the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
has been declared effective by the Commission and the Initial Securities or
Additional Securities to be exchanged for the Exchange Securities shall be
canceled by the Trustee.

          All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same
debt, and (subject to the provisions in the Initial Securities regarding the
payment of additional interest) entitled to the same benefits under this
Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or
exchange.

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

          Every Restricted Security shall be subject to, and no transfer shall
be made other than in accordance with, the restrictions on transfer provided in
the legend set forth on the form of the face of each Restricted Security and the
restrictions set forth in this Article Three, and the Holder of each Restricted
Security, by such Holder's acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by such
restrictions on transfer.

          The Security Registrar shall notify the Company of any proposed
transfer of a Restricted Security to any Person.

<PAGE>

                                       35


          No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or other
governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section
303, 304 or 906 not involving any transfer.

          The Company shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of
or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
days before an Interest Payment Date and ending on the close of business on such
Interest Payment Date.

          SECTION 306. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN SECURITIES.

          If (a) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or (b)
the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and there is delivered to the
Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to
save each of them and any agent of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice
to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona
fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or
in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a replacement Security
of like tenor and principal amount, and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

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

          Upon the issuance of any replacement Securities under this Section
306, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to pay all
documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or other governmental
charges that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses
(including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

          Every replacement Security issued pursuant to this Section 306 in lieu
of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute a contractual
obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all
benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Securities duly issued hereunder.

          The provisions of this Section 306 are exclusive and shall preclude
(to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

          SECTION 307. PAYMENT OF INTEREST; INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED.

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

<PAGE>

                                       36


          Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date and interest on such
defaulted interest at the interest rate borne by the Securities, to the extent
lawful (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called
"Defaulted Interest"), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the
relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such
Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as
provided in Subsection (a) or (b) below:

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

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

          Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 307, each Security
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange
for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued
and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

          SECTION 308. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.

<PAGE>

                                       37


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

          SECTION 309. CANCELLATION.

          All Securities surrendered for payment, registration of transfer or
exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be
delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by it. The Company may
at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any
manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by
the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for
any Securities canceled as provided in this Section 309, except as expressly
permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall
be disposed of as directed by the Company pursuant to a Company Order, provided,
however, that the Trustee shall not be required to destroy such canceled
Securities.

          SECTION 310. COMPUTATION OF INTEREST.

          Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.

          SECTION 311. REGISTRATION RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF INITIAL SECURITIES.

          Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, holders of
Initial Securities and holders of Additional Securities, if any, shall be
entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement.

          SECTION 312. CUSIP NUMBERS.

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

          SECTION 313. BOOK-ENTRY PROVISIONS FOR GLOBAL SECURITIES.

          (a) The Global Securities initially shall (i) be registered in the
name of the Depository or the nominee of such Depository, (ii) be delivered to
the Trustee as custodian for

<PAGE>

                                       38


such Depository and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Section 206 and, in the
case of Restricted Securities in the form of Global Securities, Section 205.

          Members of, or participants in, the Depository ("Agent Members") shall
have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on
their behalf by the Depository, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under the
Global Security, and the Depository may be treated by the Company, the Trustee
and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global
Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the
Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other
authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository
and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the
exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security.

          (b) Transfers of Global Securities shall be limited to transfers in
whole, but not in part, to the Depository, its successors or their respective
nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Rule 144A Global Security may be
transferred or exchanged for interests in a Regulation S Global Security, and
interests of beneficial owners in a Regulation S Global Security may be
transferred or exchanged for interests in a Rule 144A Global Security, in each
case in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the
provisions of Section 314. Interests of beneficial owners in the Global
Securities may be transferred or exchanged for Physical Securities in accordance
with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the provisions of Section
314.

          In addition, Physical Securities shall be transferred to all
beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in a Global
Security if (i) the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or
unable to continue as a depository for such Global Security or if at any time
the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act,
and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, (ii)
there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to
the Securities represented by such Global Security or (iii) the Company at any
time determines not to have Securities represented by a Global Security.

          Except as provided above, any Security authenticated and delivered
upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, any Global
Security, whether pursuant to this Section 313, Section 304, 305, 306 or 906 or
otherwise, shall also be a Global Security and bear the legend specified in
Section 206.

          (c) In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the
beneficial interest in any Global Security to beneficial owners pursuant to
paragraph (b), the Security Registrar shall (if one or more Physical Securities
are to be issued) reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in
the principal amount of the Global Security in an amount equal to the principal
amount of the beneficial interest in the Global Security to be transferred, and
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one
or more Physical Securities of like tenor and principal amount of authorized
denominations.

          (d) In connection with the transfer of Global Securities as an
entirety to

<PAGE>

                                       39


beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph (b), the Global Securities shall be
deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial
owner identified by the Depository in exchange for its beneficial interest in
the Global Securities, an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical
Securities of like tenor of authorized denominations.

          (e) Any Physical Security delivered in exchange for an interest in a
Global Security pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 313 shall,
except as otherwise provided by clause (1)(x) of paragraph (a) and by paragraph
(d) of Section 314, bear the legend set forth in Section 205.

          (f) The Holder of any Global Security may grant proxies and otherwise
authorize any person, including Agent Members and persons that may hold
interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to
take under this Indenture or the Securities.

          SECTION 314. SPECIAL TRANSFER PROVISIONS.

          (a) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall
apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Restricted
Security to any non-U.S. person:

          (i) the Security Registrar shall register the transfer of any
     Restricted Security if (x) the requested transfer is not prior to the date
     which is two years (or such other period as may be prescribed by Rule
     144(k) under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereunder)
     after the later of the original issue date of such Security (or of any
     Predecessor Security) or the last day on which the Company or any Affiliate
     of the Company was the owner of such Security or any Predecessor Security
     or (y) the proposed transferee has checked the box provided for on the form
     of Security stating, and has provided to the Security Registrar such
     certifications, opinions and other information as the Security Registrar
     may (and, if so directed by the Company, shall) require, stating that such
     Security is being transferred pursuant to offers and sales to non-U.S.
     persons that occur outside the United States within the meaning of
     Regulation S under the Securities Act; and

          (ii) the Security Registrar shall register the transfer of any
     Restricted Security if the proposed transferor is an Agent Member holding a
     beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Security, upon receipt by the
     Security Registrar of (x) the certificate, if any, required by paragraph
     (i) above and (y) instructions given in accordance with the Depository's
     and the Security Registrar's procedures;

whereupon the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date
of such transfer and (A) (if the transfer involves a transfer of a beneficial
interest in a Rule 144A Global Security) a decrease in the principal amount of
such Rule 144A Global Security in an amount equal to the principal amount to be
transferred and (B) an increase in the principal amount of a Regulation S Global
Security in an amount equal to the principal amount to be transferred.

                                       40


          (b) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with
respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Restricted Security to
a person purporting to be a QIB (excluding transfers to non-U.S. persons):

          (i) the Security Registrar shall register the transfer of any
     Restricted Security if such transfer is being made by a proposed transferor
     who has checked the box provided for on the form of Security stating, or
     who has otherwise advised the Company and the Security Registrar in
     writing, that the transfer has been made in compliance with the exemption
     from registration under the Securities Act provided under Rule 144A to a
     transferee who has signed the certification provided for on the form of
     Security stating, or has otherwise advised the Company and the Security
     Registrar in writing, that such transferee represents and warrants that it
     is purchasing the Security for its own account or an account with respect
     to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that each of it and
     any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A and is aware that
     the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that
     it has received such information regarding the Company as it has requested
     pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and
     that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon the foregoing
     representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided
     by Rule 144A; and

          (ii) the Security Registrar shall register the transfer of any
     Restricted Security if the proposed transferee is an Agent Member, and the
     Securities to be transferred consist of Physical Securities which after
     transfer are to be evidenced by an interest in the Rule 144A Global
     Security, upon receipt by the Security Registrar of instructions given in
     accordance with the Depository's and the Security Registrar's procedures,
     the Security Registrar shall reflect on the Security Register the date and
     an increase in the principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Security in an
     amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Securities to be
     transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Securities so
     transferred.

          (c) Other Transfers. If a Holder proposes to transfer a Security
pursuant to any exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act other than as provided for by Sections 314(a) and 314(b), the Security
Registrar shall only register such transfer or exchange if such transferor
delivers to the Security Registrar and the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar that such transfer is in
compliance with the Securities Act and the terms of this Indenture; provided
that the Company may, based upon the opinion of its counsel, instruct the
Security Registrar by a Company Order not to register such transfer in any case
where the proposed transferee is not a QIB or a non-U.S. person.

          (d) Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration of transfer,
exchange or replacement of Restricted Securities, the Security Registrar shall
deliver only Securities that bear the legend set forth in Section 205 unless the
circumstances contemplated by clause (a)(1)(x) of this Section 314 exist. By its
acceptance of any Security bearing the legend set forth in Section 205, each
Holder of such a Security acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such
Security

<PAGE>

                                       41


set forth in this Indenture and in such legend and agrees that it shall transfer
such Security only as provided in this Indenture.

          The Security Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and
other written communications received pursuant to Section 313 or this Section
314 for a period of two years, after which time such letters, notices and other
written communications shall at the written request of the Company be delivered
to the Company. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of
all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time
upon the giving of reasonable prior written notice to the Security Registrar.

          (e) Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed by this
Section 314 upon the transferability of any particular Restricted Security shall
cease and terminate (i) on the later of the date occurring two years after the
Securities Issue Date with respect to such Restricted Security (or any
Predecessor Security of such Restricted Security) and two years after the last
date on which the Company or any Affiliate of the Company was the owner of such
Restricted Security (or any Predecessor Security of such Restricted Security) or
(ii) (if earlier) if and when such Restricted Security has been sold pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. Any Restricted
Security as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in
accordance with their terms or shall have terminated may, upon surrender of such
Restricted Security for exchange to the Trustee or any transfer agent in
accordance with the provisions of Section 305, be exchanged for a new Initial
Security or any Additional Security, as the case may be, of like tenor and
aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required
by Section 205. The Company shall inform the Trustee in writing of (i) the
effective date of any registration statement registering the Initial Securities
or any Additional Security, as the case may be, under the Securities Act and
(ii) at the request of the Trustee, the date which is two years after the last
date on which the Company or any Affiliate of the Company was the owner of a
Restricted Security in the event that an Exchange Offer has not been
consummated.

                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

          SECTION 401. SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.

          This Indenture shall, upon Company Request, cease to be of further
effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities herein expressly provided for) and the Trustee, on demand of and at
the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when

          (a) either

               (i) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other
          than (A) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and
          which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (B)
          Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in
          trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter
          repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust,

<PAGE>

                                       42


          as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for
          cancellation; or

               (ii) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
          for cancellation

                    (A) have become due and payable, or

                    (B) will become due and payable within one year,

          and the Company, in the case of (A) or (B) above, has irrevocably
          deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in
          trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the
          entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to
          the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and interest to the date
          of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and
          payable) or to the Stated Maturity;

          (b) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable
     hereunder by the Company; and

          (c) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
     and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent herein
     provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
     have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 606 and, if money shall
have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of Subsection
(a) of this Section 401, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and
the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive such satisfaction and
discharge.

          SECTION 402. APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY.

          Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all
money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust
and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to
the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and interest for whose payment
such money has been deposited with the Trustee.

                                  ARTICLE FIVE

                                    REMEDIES

          SECTION 501. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

          An "Event of Default" occurs if:

<PAGE>

                                       43


          (a) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on any Security
     when the same becomes due and payable and such default continues for a
     period of 30 days;

          (b) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of any
     Security when the same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon
     acceleration or otherwise;

          (c) the Company fails to comply with any of its other agreements or
     covenants in, or provisions of, the Securities or this Indenture, and the
     Default continues for the period and after the notice, if any, specified
     below;

          (d) a default occurs under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under
     which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any
     Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or one of its Restricted
     Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or one
     of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now
     exists or shall be created hereafter (but excluding any Indebtedness for
     the deferred purchase price of property or services owed to the Person
     providing such property or services as to which the Company or such
     Restricted Subsidiary is contesting its obligation to pay the same in good
     faith and by proper proceedings and for which the Company or such
     Restricted Subsidiary has established appropriate reserves), and (i) either
     (A) such event of default results from the failure to pay any such
     Indebtedness at final maturity or (B) as a result of such event of default
     the maturity of such Indebtedness has been accelerated prior to its
     expressed maturity and (ii) the principal amount of such Indebtedness
     equals $25,000,000 or more or, together with the principal amount of any
     such Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal at maturity or
     the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $25,000,000 or
     more;

          (e) a final judgment or final judgments for the payment of money are
     entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction against the Company
     or any Restricted Subsidiary and either (i) an enforcement proceeding shall
     have been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or (ii) such
     judgment remains undischarged and unbonded for a period (during which
     execution shall not be effectively stayed) of 60 days, provided that the
     aggregate of all such judgments exceeds $25,000,000;

          (f) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy
     Law:

               (i) commences a voluntary case or proceeding,

               (ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in
          an involuntary case or proceeding,

               (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all
          or substantially all of its property,

               (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors,
          or

<PAGE>

                                       44


               (v) admits in writing that it generally is unable to pay its
          debts as the same become due; or

          (g) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under
     any Bankruptcy Law that:

               (i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case or
          proceeding,

               (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or
          substantially all of its property, or

               (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company;

     and in each case the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60
days.

          The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, U.S. Code or any similar
Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term "Custodian" means any
receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official under
any Bankruptcy Law.

          A Default under Section 501(c) is not an Event of Default until the
Trustee notifies the Company in writing, or the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding notify the Company and the
Trustee in writing, of the Default, and the Company does not cure the Default
within 60 days (30 days in the case of a Default under Section 801 or 1004)
after receipt of the notice. The notice must specify the Default, demand that it
be remedied and state that the notice is a "Notice of Default." Such notice to
the Company shall be given by the Trustee if so requested in writing by the
Holders of 25% of the principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding.

          SECTION 502. ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION.

          If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in
Section 501(f) or 501(g)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders
of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Initial Securities, Exchange
Securities and any Additional Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a
single class, by written notice to the Company and the agents, if any, under the
Bank Credit Agreement (and to the Trustee if such notice is given by the
Holders), may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare all
unpaid principal of and accrued interest on all the Securities to be due and
payable, as specified below. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal
and accrued interest shall be due and payable 10 days after receipt by the
Company of such written notice given hereunder. If an Event of Default specified
in Section 501(f) or 501(g) with respect to the Company occurs, the amounts
described above shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable
without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.
Upon payment of such principal and interest, all of the Company's obligations
under the Securities and this Indenture, other than obligations under Section
606, shall terminate.

          The Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Securities then

<PAGE>

                                       45


Outstanding, voting together as a single class, by written notice to the
Trustee, may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if (i) all existing
Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of or interest on the
Securities which have become due solely because of the acceleration, have been
cured or waived and (ii) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or
decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

          Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, in the event of a declaration
of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an Event of Default
specified in Section 501(d) shall have occurred and be continuing, such
declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness
that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders
thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such
Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case
may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company and countersigned by
the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such
holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the
Securities, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30-day period
which has not been cured or waived during such period.

          Notices by the Trustee to the agents under the Bank Credit Agreement
provided for herein shall be delivered or mailed to Toronto Dominion (Texas),
Inc., 909 Fannin Street, Suite 1700, Houston, Texas 77010, Attention: Manager,
Syndications and Credit; and to any other person who hereafter becomes an agent
under the Bank Credit Agreement, provided the Trustee has been notified by the
Company or the Banks of the names and mailing addresses of such persons.

          SECTION 503. COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY
TRUSTEE.

          The Company covenants that if

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

          (b) default is made in the payment of the principal of any Security at
     the Maturity thereof,

the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such
Securities for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal
and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable,
upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities; and,
in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the
costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

          If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand,
the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a
judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid and may
prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same
against the Company or any other obligor upon the

<PAGE>

                                       46


Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the
manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor
upon the Securities, wherever situated.

          If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in
its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Holders under this Indenture by such appropriate private or judicial proceedings
as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce such rights.

          SECTION 504. TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

          In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities
shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on
the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

          (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and
     interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such
     other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
     the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable
     compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
     agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding,
     and

          (b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
     deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any
     custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar
     official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
     Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the
     Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the
     Holders, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable
     compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
     agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section
     606.

          Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any proposal,
plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition or other similar
arrangement affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to
authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceeding.

          SECTION 505. TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF
SECURITIES.

          All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities
may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of
the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and
any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name
and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after
provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,

<PAGE>

                                       47


disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

          SECTION 506. APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED.

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

          FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section
     606;

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

          THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company.

          SECTION 507. LIMITATION ON SUITS.

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

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

          (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
     Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a single class, shall have
     made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of
     such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

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

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

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

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any
right in any manner

<PAGE>

                                       48


whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to
affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to
seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any
right under this Indenture except in the manner provided in this Indenture and
for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders.

          SECTION 508. UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL AND
INTEREST.

          Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of
any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to
receive payment of the principal of and (subject to Section 307) interest on
such Security on the respective due dates expressed in such Security and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall
not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

          SECTION 509. RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

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

          SECTION 510. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

          Except as provided in Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred
upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of
any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy
given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.
The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise,
shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.

          SECTION 511. DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

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

          SECTION 512. CONTROL BY HOLDERS.

          The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then
Outstanding, voting together as a single class, shall have the right to direct
the time, method and place of

<PAGE>

                                       49


conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that

          (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
     with this Indenture or expose the Trustee to personal liability, and

          (b) subject to the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 315, the
     Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not
     inconsistent with such direction.

          SECTION 513. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

          The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then
Outstanding, voting together as a single class, may on behalf of the Holders of
all the Securities waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its
consequences, except a Default or Event of Default

          (a) in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security, or

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

          Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event
of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every
purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

          SECTION 514. UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

          All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security
by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in
its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy
under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such
suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in
its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the
merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but
the provisions of this Section 514 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the
Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in
the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities then
Outstanding, voting together as a single class, or to any suit instituted by any
Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any
Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such
Security; provided that neither this Section 514 nor the Trust Indenture Act
shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make
such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company.

          SECTION 515. WAIVER OF STAY, EXTENSION OR USURY LAWS.

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

                                   ARTICLE SIX

                                   THE TRUSTEE

          SECTION 601. CERTAIN DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.

          (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default,

          (i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties
as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

          (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the
Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of
any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically
required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to
examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of
this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical
calculations or other facts stated therein).

          (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
his or her own affairs.

          (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that

               (i) this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of
          clause (a) of this Section;

               (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment
          made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved
          that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

                                       51


               (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
          taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with
          the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
          Outstanding Securities relating to the time, method and place of
          conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
          exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this
          Indenture with respect to the Securities; and

               (iv) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to
          expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
          liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the
          exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable
          grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
          indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to
          it.

          (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of
this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or
affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this
Section.

          SECTION 602. CERTAIN RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

          Subject to the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Sections 315(a)
through 315(d):

     deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking,
     suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other
     evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad
     faith on its part, rely upon an Officers' Certificate;

          (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the
     advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete
     authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or
     omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

          (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
     rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction
     of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall

     to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred
     by it in compliance with such request or direction;

<PAGE>

                                       52


          (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
     facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
     instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
     bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
     document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry
     or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the
     Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it
     shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the
     Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense of the Company
     and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason
     of such inquiry or investigation;

          (g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
     perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or

          (i) in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for

     regardless of the form of action;

          (j) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or
     Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
     knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact
     such a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of
     the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture;
     and

          (k) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given
     to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified,
     are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its
     capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed
     to act hereunder.

          SECTION 603. NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RECITALS OR ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES.

          The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the
Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of

          The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security Registrar or any other agent
of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of Securities and, subject to Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(b) and

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

          (b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the
     Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
     advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision
     of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses

                                       54


          The provisions of this Section 606 shall survive the termination of

          SECTION 608. CORPORATE TRUSTEE REQUIRED; ELIGIBILITY.

          There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder qualified or to be
qualified under Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a)(1) and which shall have a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 to the extent there is such
an institution eligible and willing to serve. If the Trustee publishes reports
of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of
Federal, State, Territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section 608, the combined capital and
surplus of the Trustee shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time
the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 608, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
hereinafter specified in this Article.

          SECTION 609. RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.

          (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 610.

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

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

          (d) If at any time:

          (i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Trust
     Indenture Act Section 310(b) after written request therefor by the Company
     or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least
     six months, or

<PAGE>

                                       55


          (ii) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 608 and
     shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by
     any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six
     months, or

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

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

          (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of
acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the
Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If,
within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the
occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so
appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance
with Section 610, become the successor Trustee and supersede the successor
Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee shall have been so
appointed by the Company or the Holders of the Securities and so accepted
appointment, the Holder of any Security who has been a bona fide Holder for at
least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee.

          (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal
of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee by mailing written
notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of
Securities as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Each
notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its
Corporate Trust Office.

          SECTION 610. ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR.

          Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge
and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting
such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring
Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further
act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts
and duties of the retiring Trustee, provided, however, that the retiring Trustee
shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of Section 606(c); but, on request
of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon
payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and
shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property
and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such
successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more
fully and

<PAGE>

                                       56


certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights,
powers and trusts.

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

          SECTION 611. MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO
BUSINESS.

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

          SECTION 612. PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.

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

          SECTION 613. TRUSTEE'S APPLICATION FOR INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE COMPANY.

          Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the
Company may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action
proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date
on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be
effective. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission
of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or
after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than
three Business Days after the date any officer of the Company actually received
such application unless, with respect to any such action (or the effective date
in the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received written
instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken
or omitted.

          SECTION 614. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

          Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default, the Trustee shall
transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the
Security Register, notice of such Default hereunder actually known to a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured or
waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment
of the principal of or interest on any Security, the Trustee shall be protected
in withholding such notice if and so long as a trust committee of directors
and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the
withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders; and provided
further that, in the case of any default or breach of the character specified in
Section 501(d), no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30

     and registered on a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from
     time to time in such rules and regulations; delivery of such reports,
     information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only
     and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice
     of any information contained therein or determinable from information
     contained therein, including the Company's compliance with any of its
     covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely
     exclusively on Officers' Certificates);

                                       58


          (b) file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules
     and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such
     additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by
     the Company with the conditions and covenants of this Indenture as may be
     required from time to time by such rules and regulations; delivery of such
     reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational
     purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute
     constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable
     from information contained therein, including the Company's compliance with
     any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely
     exclusively on Officers' Certificates); and

          (c) transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses
     appear in the Security Register, within 30 days after the filing thereof
     with the Trustee, in the manner and to the extent provided in Trust
     Indenture Act Section 313(c), such summaries of any information, documents
     and reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to subsections (a)
     and (b) of this Section 703 as may be required by rules and regulations
     prescribed from time to time by the Commission.

              CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, CONVEYANCE, TRANSFER OR LEASE

          SECTION 801. COMPANY MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC., ONLY ON CERTAIN TERMS.

          The Company shall not consolidate or merge with or into, or sell,
assign, transfer, lease, convey, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its assets to, any Person, unless:

          (a) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger
     (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer,
     lease, conveyance or disposition shall have been made, is a corporation
     organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any state
     thereof or the District of Columbia and shall assume by supplemental
     indenture hereto all the obligations of the Company under the Securities
     and this Indenture;

          (b) immediately before and immediately after such transaction, and
     after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall have
     occurred and be continuing;

          (c) immediately after such transaction, and after giving effect
     thereto, the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
     merger, or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance or
     disposition shall have been made (the "successor"), shall have a Cash Flow
     Ratio not in excess of 9 to 1; and

          (d) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
     and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or
     transfer and such supplemental indenture, if one is required by this
     Section 801, comply with this Section

<PAGE>

                                       59


     801 and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such
     transaction have been complied with.

          Cash Flow Ratio for purposes of this Section 801 shall be computed as
if any such successor were the Company.

          SECTION 802. SUCCESSOR SUBSTITUTED.

          Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer,
Lease or conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets, of the Company in accordance with Section 801, the successor Person
formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which
such sale, assignment, transfer, Lease, conveyance or other disposition is made
shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power
of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor
Person had been named as the Company herein. When a successor assumes all the
obligations of its predecessor under this Indenture and the Securities, the
predecessor shall be released from those obligations, provided that in the case
of a transfer by Lease, the predecessor corporation shall not be released from
the payment of principal and interest on the Securities.

                                  ARTICLE NINE

                             SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

          SECTION 901. SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITHOUT CONSENT OF HOLDERS.

          Without the consent of any Holders, the Company, when authorized by a
Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, may enter
into one or more indentures supplemental hereto in form satisfactory to the
Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

          (a) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company and
     the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company herein
     and in the Securities;

          (b) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the
     Holders, or to surrender any right or power herein or in the Securities
     conferred upon the Company;

          (c) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision
     herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision
     herein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
     questions arising under this Indenture; provided that, in each case, such
     provisions shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders in any
     material respect;

          (d) to secure the Securities, if the Company so elects;

<PAGE>

                                       60


          (e) to supplement any provisions of this Indenture to such extent as
     shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the defeasance and discharge of
     the Securities pursuant to Sections 1201, 1202 and 1203.

          (f) to make any changes necessary to qualify this Indenture under the
     Trust Indenture Act in connection with the Exchange Offer or the Shelf
     Registration Statement; or

          (g) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights
     of any Holder.

          SECTION 902. SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS.

          With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, voting together
as a single class, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Company and the
Trustee, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may
enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding
any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions
of this Indenture or of waiving or modifying in any manner the rights of the
Holders under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental
indenture, amendment or waiver shall, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security affected thereby:

          (a) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment
     of interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the
     rate of interest thereon, or change the coin or currency in which the
     principal of any Security or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the
     right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment after the
     Stated Maturity thereof; or

          (b) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding
     Securities the consent of whose Holders is required for any such
     supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any
     waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain
     defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture;
     or

          (c) modify any of the provisions of this Section 902 or Section 513,
     except to increase any the percentage in principal amount of the
     Outstanding Securities the consent of whose Holders is required for the
     relevant action or to provide that certain other provisions of this
     Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of
     each Outstanding Security affected thereby.

          It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section
902 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but
it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

          SECTION 903. EXECUTION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

          In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of
the trusts created by this

<PAGE>

                                       61


Indenture, the Trustee shall be provided with, and (subject to Trust Indenture
Act Section 315(a) through 315(d) and Section 602 hereof) shall be fully
protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of
such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The
Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental
indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture or otherwise.

          SECTION 904. EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

          Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article,
this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental
indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder
of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder
shall be bound thereby.

          SECTION 905. CONFORMITY WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

          Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall
conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

          SECTION 906. REFERENCE IN SECURITIES TO SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

          Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by
the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine,
new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the
Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the
Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for
Outstanding Securities.

                                   ARTICLE TEN

                                    COVENANTS

          SECTION 1001. PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.

          The Company shall duly and punctually pay the principal of and
interest on the Securities in accordance with the terms of the Securities and
this Indenture.

          SECTION 1002. MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY.

          The Company shall maintain, in The City of New York, an office or
agency where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where
Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where
notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this
Indenture may be served. If the Corporate Trust Office is located in New York
City, then it shall be such office or agency of the Company, unless the Company
shall designate and maintain some other office or agency for one or more of such
purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any
change in

<PAGE>

                                       62


the location of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail
to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the
Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Company
hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands.

          The Company may from time to time designate one or more other offices
or agencies (in or outside of The City of New York) where the Securities may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes, and may from time to time
rescind such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or
rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain
an office or agency in The City of New York for such purposes. The Company shall
give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission
and any change in the location of any such office or agency.

          SECTION 1003. MONEY FOR SECURITY PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST.

          If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it
shall, on or before each due date of the principal of or interest on any of the
Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal or interest so becoming due until
such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein
provided, and shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to
act.

          Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for the
Securities, it shall, on or before each due date of the principal of or interest
on any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum in same day funds (or New
York Clearing House funds if such deposit is made prior to the date on which
such deposit is required to be made) sufficient to pay the principal or interest
so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled to such principal or interest and (unless such Paying Agent is the
Trustee) the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of such action or any
failure so to act.

          The Company shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent
shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 1003,
that such Paying Agent shall:

          (a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of or
     interest on Securities in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
     thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed
     of as herein provided;

          (b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any
     other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment of
     principal or interest; and

          (c) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the
     written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so
     held in trust by such Paying Agent.

          The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or
by Company Order direct any

<PAGE>

                                       63


Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or
such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as
those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and,
upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be
released from all further liability with respect to such money.

          Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held
by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of or interest on any
Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest
has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request or
(if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the
Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look
only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or
such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the
Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

          SECTION 1004. CORPORATE EXISTENCE.

          Subject to Article Eight, the Company shall do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate
existence and that of each Restricted Subsidiary and the corporate rights
(charter and statutory), corporate licenses and corporate franchises of the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, except where a failure to do so, singly
or in the aggregate, is not likely to have a materially adverse effect upon the
business, assets, financial condition or results of operations of the Company
and the Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole determined on a consolidated
basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; provided that
the Company shall not be required to preserve any such existence (except of the
Company), right, license or franchise if the Board of Directors, or the board of
directors of the Restricted Subsidiary concerned, shall determine that the
preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary and that the loss thereof is not
disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

          SECTION 1005. PAYMENT OF TAXES AND OTHER CLAIMS.

          The Company shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged,
before the same shall become delinquent, (a) all material taxes, assessments and
governmental charges levied or imposed upon it or any Subsidiary or upon the
income, profits or property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (b)
all material lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid,
might by law become a Lien upon the property of the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay or
discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or
claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith
by appropriate proceedings.

          SECTION 1006. MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES.

          The Company shall cause all material properties owned by or leased to
it or any Restricted Subsidiary and necessary in the conduct of its business or
the business of such Restricted Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in normal
condition, repair and working order,

<PAGE>

                                       64


ordinary wear and tear excepted; provided that nothing in this Section 1006
shall prevent the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the
use, operation or maintenance of any of such properties, or disposing of any of
them, if such discontinuance or disposal is, in the judgment of the Board of
Directors or the board of directors of the Restricted Subsidiary concerned, or
of any officer (or other agent employed by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary) of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary having managerial
responsibility for any such property, desirable in the conduct of the business
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and if such
discontinuance or disposal is not adverse in any material respect to the
Holders.

          The Company shall provide or cause to be provided, for itself and any
Restricted Subsidiaries, insurance (including appropriate self-insurance)
against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by corporations
similarly situated and owning like properties in the same general areas in which
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiaries operate.

          SECTION 1007. LIMITATION ON INDEBTEDNESS.

          The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary
to, directly or indirectly, incur, create, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise
become liable for, contingently or otherwise, or become responsible for the
payment of, contingently or otherwise, any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness
between or among any of the Company and Restricted Subsidiaries) unless, after
giving effect thereto, the Cash Flow Ratio shall be less than or equal to 9 to
1.

          SECTION 1008. LIMITATION ON LIENS.

          The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary
to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of
any kind, except for Permitted Liens, on or with respect to any of its property
or assets, whether owned at the date of this Indenture or thereafter acquired,
or any income, profits or proceeds therefrom, or assign or otherwise convey any
right to receive income thereon, unless (x) in the case of any Lien securing
Indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the Securities, the
Securities are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is
senior in priority to such Lien and (y) in the case of any other Lien, the
Securities are equally and ratably secured.

          SECTION 1009. LIMITATION ON RESTRICTED PAYMENTS.

          Except as otherwise provided in this Section 1009, the Company shall
not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Restricted
Payment if (a) at the time of such proposed Restricted Payment, a Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a
consequence of such Restricted Payment or (b) immediately after giving effect to
such Restricted Payment, the aggregate of all Restricted Payments that shall
have been made on or after July 1, 1988 would exceed the sum of:

          (a) $25,000,000, plus

          (b) an amount equal to the difference between (i) the Cumulative Cash
     Flow Credit and (ii) 1.2 multiplied by Cumulative Interest Expense.

<PAGE>

                                       65


          For purposes of this Section 1009, the amount of any Restricted
Payment, if other than cash, shall be based upon fair market value as determined
by the Board of Directors, whose good faith determination shall be conclusive.

          The foregoing provisions of this Section 1009 shall not prevent (i)
the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration
thereof, if at such date of declaration such payment complied with the foregoing
provisions or this Section 1009; (ii) the retirement, redemption, purchase,
defeasance or other acquisition of any shares of the Company's Capital Stock or
warrants, rights or options to acquire Capital Stock of the Company in exchange
for, or out of the proceeds of a sale (within one year before or 180 days after
such retirement, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other acquisition) of,
other shares of the Company's Capital Stock or warrants, rights or options to
acquire Capital Stock of the Company and (iii) the retirement, redemption,
purchase, defeasance or other acquisition of any shares of CSC Holdings' Capital
Stock or warrants, rights or options to acquire Capital Stock of CSC Holdings in
exchange for, or out of the proceeds of a sale (within one year before or 180
days after such retirement, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other
acquisition) of, other shares of CSC Holdings' Capital Stock or warrants, rights
or options to acquire Capital Stock of CSC Holdings. For purposes of determining
the aggregate permissible amount of Restricted Payments in accordance with
clause (b) of the first paragraph of this Section 1009, all amounts expended
pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall be included and all amounts
expended or received pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall be
excluded; provided, however, that amounts paid pursuant to clause (i) of this
paragraph shall be included only to the extent that such amounts were not
previously included in calculating Restricted Payments.

          For the purposes of this Section 1009, the net proceeds from the
issuance of shares of Capital Stock of the Company upon conversion of
Indebtedness shall be deemed to be an amount equal to (i) the accreted value of
such Indebtedness on the date of such conversion and (ii) the additional
consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such conversion thereof,
less any cash payment on account of fractional shares (such consideration, if in
property other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors, whose good
faith determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a Board Resolution). If
the Company makes a Restricted Payment which, at the time of the making of such
Restricted Payment, would in the good faith determination of the Company be
permitted under the requirements of this Section 1009, such Restricted Payment
shall be deemed to have been made in compliance with this Section 1009
notwithstanding any subsequent adjustments made in good faith to the Company's
financial statements affecting Cumulative Cash Flow Credit or Cumulative
Interest Expense for any period.

          SECTION 1010. LIMITATION ON INVESTMENTS IN UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES
AND AFFILIATES.

          The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary
to, directly or indirectly, (a) make any Investment or (b) allow any Restricted
Subsidiary to become an Unrestricted Subsidiary (a "redesignation of a
Restricted Subsidiary"), in each case unless (i) no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a consequence of such
Investment or such redesignation of a Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) after
giving effect thereto, the Cash Flow Ratio shall be less than or equal to 9 to
1.

<PAGE>

                                       66


          The foregoing provisions of this Section 1010 shall not prohibit (a)
any renewal or reclassification of any Investment existing on the date hereof or
(b) trade credit extended on usual and customary terms in the ordinary course of
business.

          SECTION 1011. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

          The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries
to, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or
assets to or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into any contract,
agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit
of, an Affiliate of the Company that is not a Subsidiary, having a value, or for
consideration having a value, in excess of $25,000,000 individually or in the
aggregate unless the Board of Directors shall make a good faith determination
that the terms of such transaction are, taken as a whole, no less favorable to
the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those which might be
available in a comparable transaction with an unrelated Person. For purposes of
clarification, this Section 1011 shall not apply to any Restricted Payments
permitted by Section 1009.

          SECTION 1012. PROVISION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

          (a) The Company shall supply without cost to each Holder of the
Securities, and file with the Trustee (if not otherwise filed with the Trustee
pursuant to Section 703) within 30 days after the Company is required to file
the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports
and of the information, documents and other reports which the Company may be
required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d)
of the Exchange.

          (b) If the Company is not required to file with the Commission such
reports and other information referred to in Section 1012(a), the Company shall
furnish without cost to each Holder of the Securities and file with the Trustee
(i) within 140 days after the end of each fiscal year, annual reports containing
the information required to be contained in Items 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9 of Form
10-K promulgated under the Exchange Act, or substantially the same information
required to be contained in comparable items of any successor form, and (ii)
within 75 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each
fiscal year, quarterly reports containing the information required to be
contained in Form 10-Q promulgated under the Exchange Act, or substantially the
same information required to be contained in any successor form.

          (c) At any time when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act, upon the request of a Holder of a Restricted Security, the
Company shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished such information as is
specified pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor
provision thereto) to such Holder or to a prospective purchaser of such Security
designated by such holder, as the case may be, in order to permit compliance by
such holder with Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

          SECTION 1013. STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE.

<PAGE>

                                       67


          The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the
end of each fiscal year ending after April 6, 2004, a brief certificate of its
principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting
officer stating whether, to such officer's knowledge, the Company is in
compliance with all covenants and conditions under this Indenture. For purposes
of this Section 1013, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any
period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture.

          SECTION 1014. WAIVER OF CERTAIN COVENANTS.

          The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any
covenant or condition set forth in Sections 1007 through 1012 if, before or
after the time for such compliance, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by Act of such Holders, waive
such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such
covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such
covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such
waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of
the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full
force and effect.

          SECTION 1015. STATEMENT BY OFFICERS AS TO DEFAULT.

          The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in
any event within five days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of
any Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the lapse of time or
both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officers' Certificate setting
forth the details of such Event of Default or default and the action which the
Company proposes to take with respect thereto.

                                 ARTICLE ELEVEN

                            REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

          SECTION 1101. NOTICES TO TRUSTEE.

          If the Company elects to redeem Securities pursuant to the optional
redemption provisions of Section 1107 hereof, it shall furnish to the Trustee,
at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an
Officers' Certificate setting forth (i) the Section of this Indenture pursuant
to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the
principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and (iv) the Redemption Price.

          SECTION 1102. SELECTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REDEEMED.

          (a) If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed at any time,
the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed among the Holders of the
Securities in compliance with the requirements of the principal national
securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed or, if the
Securities are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or in accordance with
any other method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate. In the event of
partial redemption by

<PAGE>

                                       68


lot, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected, unless
otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the
Redemption Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Securities not previously
called for redemption.

          (b) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the
Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Security selected for
partial redemption, the principal amount at maturity thereof to be redeemed. No
Securities in amounts of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Securities
and portions of Securities selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole
multiples of $1,000; except that if all of the Securities of a Holder are to be
redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Securities held by such Holder, even
if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the
preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called
for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption.

          SECTION 1103. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

          (a) At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption
Date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a
notice of redemption to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed at its
registered address.

          The notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall
state:

          (i) the Redemption Date;

          (ii) if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the
     principal amount at maturity of such Security to be redeemed and that,
     after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Security, a new Security
     or Securities in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the
     original Security shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon
     cancellation of the original Security;

          (iii) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

          (iv) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the
     Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price and become due on the date
     fixed for redemption;

          (v) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption
     payment, interest, if any, on Securities called for redemption ceases to
     accrue on and after the Redemption Date; and

          (vi) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy
     of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the
     Securities.

          (b) At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company's name and at its expense; provided, however, that the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the
Redemption Date, an Officers' Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such
notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided
in the preceding paragraph. The notice, if mailed in the manner provided herein
shall be presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such
notice.

                                       69


          SECTION 1104. EFFECT OF NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

          Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 1103
hereof, Securities called for redemption shall become irrevocably due and
payable on the redemption date at the Redemption Price. A notice of redemption
may not be conditional.

          SECTION 1105. DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

          (a) Not later than 11:00 am on the Redemption Date, the Company shall
deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of and accrued interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on all
Securities to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall
promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the
Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the
Redemption Price of, and accrued interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on,
all Securities to be redeemed.

          (b) If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding
paragraph, on and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on
the Securities or the portions of Securities called for redemption. If a
Security is redeemed on or after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the
related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be
paid to the Person in whose name such Security was registered at the close of
business on such Regular Record Date. If any Security called for redemption
shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the
Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the
unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid, and to
the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each
case at the rate provided in the Securities and in Section 1001 hereof.

          SECTION 1106. SECURITIES REDEEMED IN PART.

          Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company
shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of
the Company a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion
of the Security surrendered. No Securities in denominations of $1,000 or less
shall be redeemed in part.

          SECTION 1107. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

          At its option, the Company may redeem the Securities, in whole or in
part, at any time and from time to time at a redemption price (the "Redemption
Price") equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the
Securities to be redeemed, or (b) as determined by a Quotation Agent, the sum of
the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest
thereon (not including any Liquidated Damages or any portion of such payments of
interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a
semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at
the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and
unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

          Any redemption pursuant to this Section 1107 shall be made pursuant to
the provisions of Sections 1101 through 1106 hereof.

                                 ARTICLE TWELVE

                       DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

          SECTION 1201. OPTION TO EFFECT DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

          The Company may, at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with
respect to the Securities, elect to have either Section 1202 or Section 1203 be
applied to all Outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions set
forth below in this Article Twelve.

          SECTION 1202. DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE.

          Upon the Company's exercise under Section 1201 of the option
applicable to this Section 1202, the Company shall be deemed to have been
discharged from its obligations with respect to all Outstanding Securities on
the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter,
"defeasance"). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be
deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the
Outstanding Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding"
only for the purposes of Section 1205 and the other Sections of this Indenture
referred to in (A) and (B) below, and to have satisfied all its other
obligations under such Securities and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand
of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of
Outstanding Securities to receive solely from the trust fund described in
Section 1204 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of
the principal of and interest on such Securities when such payments are due, (B)
the Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304,
305, 306, 1002 and 1003, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities
of the Trustee hereunder and the Company's obligations in connection therewith
and (D) this Article Twelve. Subject to compliance with this Article Twelve, the
Company may exercise its option under this Section 1202 notwithstanding the
prior exercise of its option under Section 1203 with respect to the Securities.

          SECTION 1203. COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

          Upon the Company's exercise under Section 1201 of the option
applicable to this Section 1203, the Company shall be released from its
obligations under any covenant contained in Article Eight and in Sections 1004
through 1012 with respect to the Outstanding Securities on and after the date
the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant
defeasance"), and the Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not
"Outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration
or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such
covenants, but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes
hereunder (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed
Outstanding for financial accounting purposes). For this purpose, such covenant
defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Securities, the Company
may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term,
condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or
indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to

<PAGE>

                                       71


any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any
other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply
shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default under Section 501(c), but,
except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities
shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company's exercise under
Section 1201 of the option applicable to Section 1203, Sections 501(c) through
501(e) shall not constitute Events of Default.

          SECTION 1204. CONDITIONS TO DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

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

          (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be
     deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements
     of Section 608 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this
     Article Twelve applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of
     making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and
     dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, (A)
     cash in U.S. Dollars in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations (as
     defined below) which through the scheduled payment of principal and
     interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms shall provide,
     not later than one day before the due date of any payment, cash in U.S.
     Dollars in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the
     opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
     expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to
     pay and discharge and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other
     qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, (i) the principal of and interest
     on the Outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity of such principal or
     installment of principal or interest and (ii) any mandatory sinking fund
     payments or analogous payments applicable to the Outstanding Securities on
     the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the
     terms of this Indenture and of such Securities; provided that the Trustee
     shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds
     of such U.S. Government Obligations to said payments with respect to the
     Securities. For this purpose, "U.S. Government Obligations" means
     securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States of America
     for the timely payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (y)
     obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency
     or instrumentality of the United States of America the timely payment of
     which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation
     by the United States of America, which, in either case, are not callable or
     redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a
     depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the
     Securities Act of 1933, as amended), as custodian with respect to any such
     U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or
     interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for
     the account of the holder of such depository receipt; provided that (except
     as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction
     from the amount payable to the holder of such depository receipt from any
     amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government
     Obligation or the specific payment of principal of or interest on the U.S.
     Government Obligation evidenced by such depository receipt.

<PAGE>

                                       72


          (2) No Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities
     shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or,
     insofar as Subsection 501(f) or 501(g) is concerned, at any time during the
     period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being
     understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the
     expiration of such period).

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

          (4) In the case of an election under Section 1202, the Company shall
     have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States
     stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published
     by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (y) since April 6, 2004, there
     has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case,
     to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the
     Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or
     loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and
     will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same
     manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance
     had not occurred.

          (5) In the case of an election under Section 1203, the Company shall
     have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States to
     the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not
     recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result
     of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on
     the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have
     been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred.

          (6) In the case of an election under either Section 1202 or 1203, the
     Company shall represent to the Trustee that the deposit made by the Company
     pursuant to its election under Section 1202 or 1203 was not made by the
     Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over other creditors of
     the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or
     defrauding creditors of the Company or others.

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

          SECTION 1205. DEPOSITED MONEY AND U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS TO BE
HELD IN TRUST; OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

          Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all
money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited
with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this
Section 1205, the "Trustee") pursuant to Section 1204 in respect of the
Outstanding Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in
accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company
acting as its own Paying

<PAGE>

                                       73


Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all
sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and interest, but
such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
by law. Money and U.S. Government Obligations so held in trust are not subject
to Article Twelve.

          The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee
or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1204 or the principal and interest
received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Securities.

          Anything in this Article Twelve to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company
Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in
Section 1204 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section
1204(1)), are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be
deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance.

          SECTION 1206. REINSTATEMENT.

          If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in
accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be, by reason of any order
or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company's obligations under
this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no
deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be, until
such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in
accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be; provided, however,
that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of or interest on any
Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be
subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such
payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.
