     agree and declare that until the Senior Discharge Date:

     (a)  RANKING: for all purposes, the Senior Liabilities will rank ahead of
          the Subordinated Liabilities and the Subordinated Liabilities will be
          subordinated in right of payment and security to the Senior
          Liabilities, and such priorities shall be applicable regardless of the
          time of creation of any of the Senior Liabilities or Subordinated

     (b)  RESTRICTION ON PAYMENTS: the Borrower will not, directly or
          indirectly, make any payment (whether in respect of principal,
          interest or otherwise) on account of the Subordinated Liabilities owed
          by it (whether in cash or in kind, by way of outright payment,

          such payment other than in respect of those payments permitted to be
          made pursuant to the first proviso to Clause 10.24 of the Loan
          Agreement, which shall, subject to compliance with the terms of the
          Loan Agreement, be permitted to be made by the Borrower, and received
          by the relevant Subordinated Creditor, under the terms of this Deed
          when the terms and conditions of such proviso so permit;

     (c)  BREACH OF RESTRICTIONS: in the event of payment being made to a
          Subordinated Creditor (or to any other person on its behalf) in breach
          of clause (b), such Subordinated Creditor undertakes forthwith to pay
          to the Security Trustee an amount equal to any sums or benefits which
          have been so received from the Borrower or, as the case may be, the
          liquidator or other insolvency officer of the Borrower or from any
          other person and any such amounts so paid to the Security Trustee
          shall be applied in such manner as may be required pursuant to the
          Loan Agreement or as the Security Trustee, acting on the instructions
          of the Required Lenders, otherwise thinks fit in or towards discharge
          of the Senior Liabilities and prior to such application may be held by
          the Security Trustee in such manner, and for such period, as it thinks
          fit without the Security Trustee having any obligation to pay interest
          thereon;

     (d)  HOLD ON TRUST: all payments or benefits received by any Subordinated
          Creditor in breach of clause (b) will be held by such Subordinated
          Creditor on trust for the Senior Creditors pending the relevant amount
          being paid to the Security Trustee as required by clause (c); and

     (e)  RIGHTS OF SET-OFF: if a Subordinated Creditor receives the benefit of
          a Right of Set-off or counterclaim and, as a result, any of the
          Subordinated Liabilities due to it are reduced at a time when such
          Subordinated Creditor would not (by virtue of this Deed or any other
          Loan Document) be entitled to receive payment in respect of the
          Subordinated Liabilities, that Subordinated Creditor will forthwith
          pay to the Security Trustee a sum equal to the amount by which those
          Subordinated Liabilities have been so reduced (for application or
          holding by the Security Trustee in accordance with clause (c)) and
          pending such payment will hold such sums on trust for the Senior
          Creditors.

4.   COVENANT TO PAY

     Each of the Subordinated Creditors covenants with the Security Trustee that
     it will pay the Liabilities of such Subordinated Creditor as and when the

          with all of such Subordinated Creditor's or the Borrower's (as the
          case may be) other unsecured indebtedness, other than any such
          indebtedness which is preferred by mandatory provisions of applicable
          law;

          assignment of the Assigned Agreements in favour of the Security
          Trustee;

          pledge of the Promissory Notes in favour of the Security Trustee;

     (e)  No Subordinated Creditor has taken or received any lien, indemnity or
          guarantee of any kind whatsoever from the Borrower in respect of the

          documents of each Subordinated Creditor and of the Borrower
          incorporate provisions which respectively ensure, and all necessary
          corporate, shareholder and other action has been taken to ensure,
          that:

          (i)  it is authorised to sign or execute under seal or as a deed (as
               appropriate) and deliver this Deed and perform the transactions
               contemplated hereby and to create the security in the terms
               contained in this Deed; and

          (ii) this Deed is admissible in evidence in England, Jersey and Mali;

     (g)  Neither the execution and delivery of this Deed by each Subordinated
          Creditor, nor by the Borrower, nor the performance of any of their
          respective obligations hereunder do or will:

          (i)  conflict with their respective memorandum or articles of
               association or other constitutional documents; or

          (ii) cause any borrowing, negative pledge or other limitation on any
               Subordinated Creditor or the Borrower or the powers of the
               directors


                                       -8-



               or other officers of any Subordinated Creditor or the Borrower to
               be exceeded.

     (h)  No Subordinated Creditor nor the Borrower is unable to pay its debts
          within the meaning of Section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986 or within

7.   COVENANTS OF THE SUBORDINATED CREDITORS

     of the Security Trustee (acting on the instructions of the Senior
     Creditors):

     (a)  assign, mortgage, charge, encumber, dispose of or otherwise deal with
          the Subordinated Liabilities owed to it or any part thereof;

     (b)  take or receive any lien, indemnity or guarantee of any kind
          whatsoever from the Borrower or any other person in respect of the

          is a party.

8.   EXPENSES

     The Subordinated Creditors will, on demand and on a joint and several
     basis, pay the Security Trustee all charges and expenses incurred by each
     Senior Creditor in connection with the enforcement or preservation of the
     rights of the Senior Creditors under this Deed.

9.   PROTECTION OF SUBORDINATION AND SECURITY

9.1  CONTINUING SUBORDINATION

     The subordination provisions in this Deed constitute a continuing
     subordination and benefit the ultimate balance of the Senior Liabilities
     and the Subordinated Obligations regardless of any intermediate payment or
     discharge of the Senior Liabilities or Subordinated Obligations (as the
     case may be) in whole or in part.

9.2  WAIVER OF DEFENCE

     The obligations of each Subordinated Creditor and the Borrower under this
     Deed will not be affected by any act, omission or circumstance which (save
     for this provision) may operate so as to release or otherwise exonerate the
     Borrower or such Subordinated Creditor from their respective obligations
     hereunder or otherwise affect such subordination provisions including:

     (a)  any time, indulgence or waiver granted to or composition made with the
          Borrower, any Subordinated Creditor or any other person;

     (b)  any variation of any Senior Finance Document;


                                       -9-



     (c)  the taking, variation, compromise, renewal or release of or failure to
          enforce any rights, remedies or security against or granted by the
          Borrower, any Subordinated Creditor or any other person;

     (d)  any legal limitation, disability, incapacity or other circumstance
          relating to the Borrower, any Subordinated Creditor or any other
          person or any variation of the terms of this Deed or any other
          document (including the Senior Finance Documents); or

     (e)  any fluctuation in or partial repayment or pre-payment of the Senior
          Liabilities or the Subordinated Obligations.

9.3  COVENANT

     The Borrower and each Subordinated Creditor each hereby jointly and
     severally covenants with the Security Trustee that it will not at any time
     do or fail to do anything which is reasonably likely to jeopardise or
     render ineffective the subordination or security effected by this Deed.

9.4  AVOIDANCE OF SETTLEMENT

     Any settlement or discharge under this Deed between the Borrower or any
     Subordinated Creditor, on the one hand, and the Security Trustee on the
     other hand, shall be conditional upon no security or payment to any Lender
     Party by any person in connection with the Senior Liabilities or
     Subordinated Obligations (as the case may be) being avoided or set-aside or
     ordered to be refunded or reduced by virtue of any provision or enactment
     relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, administration or liquidation for the
     time being in force, and if such condition is not satisfied (but without
     limiting the other rights of the Security Trustee hereunder or under
     applicable law) such settlement or discharge shall be of no effect and the
     subordination and other arrangements created by this Deed shall remain
     and/or shall be reinstated in full force and effect as if such settlement
     or discharge had not occurred and the Security Trustee shall, on behalf of
     the Senior Creditors (and to the extent that any Subordinated Creditors
     shall have recovered any amount in respect of the Subordinated Liabilities
     following such settlement or discharge which would not otherwise have been
     permitted to be recovered prior to the discharge of the Senior Liabilities
     pursuant to this Deed had this Deed then been in full force and effect), be
     entitled to recover from such Subordinated Creditors on demand the value of
     the security or payment so avoided, set-aside, refunded or reduced.

10.  STATUS OF THE BORROWER

10.1 ROLE

     The Borrower is a party to this Deed in order to acknowledge the rights and
     obligations set out herein and in order to undertake with the Security
     Trustee to comply with its obligations hereunder.


                                      -10-



10.2 NO RIGHTS

     The Borrower will not have any rights under this Deed and none of the
     covenants contained herein on the part of any other party are given (or
     shall be deemed to be given) to or for the benefit of the Borrower.

11.  SUBROGATION

     Subject to the irrevocable and unconditional payment in full of all Senior
     Liabilities, the Subordinated Creditors shall, to the extent set forth in
     the immediately succeeding sentence, be subrogated to the rights of the
     Senior Creditors to receive distribution of assets of the Borrower, or
     payments by or on behalf of the Borrower, made in respect of the Senior
     Liabilities until the Subordinated Liabilities and Subordinated Obligations
     shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments over
     (including any payments or distributions to the Senior Creditors of any
     cash, property or securities to which any Subordinated Creditors would
     otherwise be entitled except for the provisions of this Deed) to the Senior
     Creditors by any Subordinated Creditor pursuant to the provisions hereof,
     shall, as among the Borrower, its creditors (other than the Senior
     Creditors) and such Subordinated Creditor, be deemed to be a payment or
     distribution by the Borrower on account of the Senior Liabilities.

12.  FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER OF ATTORNEY

12.1 FURTHER ASSURANCES

          documentation as may reasonably be requested by the Security Trustee
          to be delivered in connection with the creation and perfection of any
          lien) delivered to and deposited with the Security Trustee for
          purposes of pledging pursuant to this Deed;

     (c)  in the case of each Subordinated Creditor, mark its books and records,
          so as to indicate clearly that the Subordinated Liabilities owed to it
          are subordinated, and the Promissory Notes in its favour are pledged,
          in accordance with the terms of this Deed, and will cause to be
          clearly inserted in any Promissory Note or other instrument which at
          any time evidences any of the Subordinated Liabilities owed to it a
          statement to the effect that the payment thereof is subordinated in
          accordance with the terms of this Deed;

     (d)  to take such further acts, enter into such other instruments and
          documents and otherwise perform such action as may be necessary or
          advisable or as the Security Trustee may otherwise request to more
          fully give effect to the subordination and security created or
          intended to be created hereunder and any other provision of this Deed;
          and


                                      -11-



     (e)  in the case of each Subordinated Creditor, at their own expense
          promptly execute such deeds, assurances, agreements, instruments and
          otherwise do such acts and things as the Security Trustee may require
          for perfecting and protecting the security and subordination created
          (or intended to be created) by this Deed or facilitating the
          realisation thereof or otherwise for enforcing the same or exercising
          any of the Security Trustee's rights hereunder.

     the Liabilities remains outstanding or be concerned with notice to the
     contrary, or whether any event has happened to authorise the Receiver to
     act or as to the propriety or validity of the exercise or purported
     exercise of any such power and the title of such a purchaser and the
     position of such a person shall not be impeachable by reference to any of
     those matters.

16.2 RECEIPT ON ABSOLUTE DISCHARGE

     The receipt of the Security Trustee or any Receiver shall be an absolute
     and a conclusive discharge to a purchaser and shall relieve him of any
     obligation to see to the application of any moneys paid to or by the
     direction of the Security Trustee or any Receiver.

16.3 PURCHASER

     In Clauses 16.1 (No duty to enquire) and 16.2 (Receipt on absolute
     discharge) the term "PURCHASER" includes any person acquiring, for money or
     money's worth, any lease of, or lien over, or any other interest or right
     whatsoever in relation to, the Charged Property.

17.  PROTECTION OF LENDER PARTIES AND RECEIVER

17.1 NO LIABILITY FOR EXERCISE OF POWERS

     By way of supplement to the Trustee Act 1925, neither the Security Trustee,
     any Lender Party nor any Receiver shall be liable in respect of all or any
     part of the security, charges and pledges constituted by this Deed or for
     any loss or damage which arises out of the exercise or the attempted or
     purported exercise of, or the failure to exercise any of, their respective
     powers, unless such loss or damage is caused by its or his gross negligence
     or wilful default.

17.2 POSSESSION OF CHARGED PROPERTY

     Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 17.1 (No liability for
     exercise of powers), entry into possession of the security, charges and
     pledges constituted by this Deed shall not render the Security Trustee, the
     Lender Parties or the Receiver liable to account as mortgagee in possession
     and if and whenever the Security Trustee enters into possession of the
     security, charges and pledges constituted by this Deed, it shall be
     entitled at any time at its discretion to go out of such possession.


                                      -17-



18.  COSTS AND EXPENSES

18.1 INDEMNITY

     Otherwise than by reason of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of
     the Security Trustee, each Lender Party or any Receiver, as the case may
     be, the Borrower and each Subordinated Creditor will fully indemnify each
     of the Security Trustee, each Lender Party and any Receiver appointed
     hereunder on demand from and against any expense (including legal fees on a
     full indemnity basis), loss, damage or liability which any of them may
     incur in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution,
     modification, amendment, release and/or enforcement or attempted
     enforcement of, or preservation of the rights under, this Deed or in
     relation to any of the security, charges and pledges constituted by this
     Deed, including any present or future stamp or other taxes or duties and
     any penalties or interest with respect thereto which may be imposed by any
     competent jurisdiction in connection with the execution or enforcement of
     this Deed or in consequence of any payment being made pursuant to this Deed
     (whether made by the Borrower or any third person) being impeached or
     declared void for any reason whatsoever.

18.2 DEFAULT INTEREST

     The amounts payable under Clause 18.1 (Indemnity) above shall carry default
     interest at the Default Rate as well after as before judgment, from the
     dates on which they were paid, incurred or charged by the Security Trustee,
     the relevant Lender Party or the Receiver (as the case may be) and shall
     form part of the Liabilities and accordingly be secured on the Subordinated
     Creditor under the charges contained in this Deed. All such default
     interest shall be compounded at such intervals as the Security Trustee may
     select from time to time.

19.  OTHER SECURITY, CUMULATIVE POWERS AND AVOIDANCE OF PAYMENTS

19.1 SECURITY NON-EXCLUSIVE

     This security is in addition to, and shall neither be merged in, nor in any
     way exclude or prejudice or be affected by any other lien, right of
     recourse or other right whatsoever, present or future, (or the invalidity
     thereof) which the Security Trustee or any Lender Party may now or at any
     time hereafter hold or have (or would apart from this security hold or
     have) from the Borrower or any Subordinated Creditor or any other person in
     respect of the Liabilities.

19.2 POWERS CUMULATIVE, ETC.

     The powers which this Deed confers on the Security Trustee and any Receiver
     appointed hereunder are cumulative, without prejudice to their respective
     powers under the general law, and may be exercised as often as the Security
     Trustee or the Receiver thinks appropriate. The Security Trustee or the
     Receiver may, in connection with the exercise of their powers, join or
     concur with any person in any transaction, scheme or arrangement
     whatsoever. The Borrower and each Subordinated Creditor acknowledges that
     the respective powers of the Security Trustee and the Receiver will


                                      -18-



     in no circumstances whatsoever be suspended, waived or otherwise prejudiced
     by anything other than an express waiver or variation in writing.

19.3 AMOUNTS DEEMED NOT PAID

     If the Security Trustee reasonably considers that any amount paid by the
     Borrower or any Subordinated Creditor in respect of the Liabilities is
     capable of being avoided or set aside on the liquidation or administration
     of the Borrower or any Subordinated Creditor or otherwise, then for the
     purposes of this Deed (other than any provision requiring the payment of
     interest at the Default Rate) such amount shall not be considered to have
     been paid.

19.4 SETTLEMENT AND DISCHARGE

     Any settlement or discharge between the Borrower or any Subordinated
     Creditor and the Security Trustee shall be conditional upon no security or
     payment to the Security Trustee by the Borrower or any Subordinated
     Creditor or any other person being avoided or set-aside or ordered to be
     refunded or reduced by virtue of any provision or enactment relating to
     bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation for the time being in force and if
     such condition is not satisfied (but without limiting the other rights of
     the Security Trustee hereunder or under applicable law), such settlement or
     discharge shall be of no effect and the security created by this Deed shall
     remain and/or shall be reinstated in full force and effect as if such
     settlement or discharge had not occurred and the Security Trustee shall, on
     behalf of the Lender Parties, be entitled to recover from the Borrower and
     each Subordinated Creditor on demand the value (to the extent of the value
     of the outstanding Liabilities at the time of such demand) of the security
     or payment so avoided, set-aside, refunded or reduced.

20.  DELEGATION

     By way of supplement to the Trustee Act 1925, the Security Trustee or any
     Receiver may delegate by power of attorney or in any other manner all or
     any of the powers, authorities and discretions which are for the time being
     exercisable by it or him under this Deed to any person or persons as it or
     he shall think fit. Any such delegation may be made upon such terms and
     conditions (including the power to subdelegate) as the Security Trustee or
     such Receiver may think fit. Neither the Security Trustee nor the Receiver
     will, in the absence of their own gross negligence or wilful default, be
     liable or responsible to the Borrower or any Subordinated Creditor or any
     other person for any losses, liabilities or expenses arising from any act,
     default, omission or misconduct on the part of any such delegate.

21.  REDEMPTION OF PRIOR CHARGES

     The Security Trustee may at any time following the security constituted by
     this Deed becoming enforceable redeem any and all prior liens on or
     relating to the security, charges and pledges constituted by this Deed or
     any part thereof or procure the transfer of such liens to itself and may
     settle and pass the accounts of the person or persons entitled to the prior
     liens. The Security Trustee shall use its best efforts to give prior notice
     to the Borrower or Subordinated Creditor of any such action but failure to
     give such notice shall not invalidate or otherwise prejudice such action.
     Any account so settled and passed shall be conclusive and binding on the
     Borrower


                                      -19-



     and each Subordinated Creditor. The Borrower and each Subordinated Creditor
     will on demand pay to the Security Trustee all principal monies, interest,
     costs, charges, losses, liabilities and expenses of and incidental to any
     such redemption or transfer.

22.  NOTICES

     All notices and other communications provided to any party hereto in
     connection with this Deed shall be in writing and the provisions of Clause
     14.2 of the Loan Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Deed with all
     necessary consequential changes.

23.  WAIVERS, ETC.

23.1 NO WAIVER

     No failure or delay by the Security Trustee in exercising any right, power
     or privilege under this Deed shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall
     any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude
     any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
     power or privilege.

23.2 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE

     The rights and remedies of the Security Trustee provided in this Deed are
     cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

23.3 WAIVERS LIMITED

     will be effective only if given in writing and expressly in relation to
     this Deed and then only in the instance and for the purpose for which it is
     given.

24.  SEVERABILITY

     If any provision of this Deed is or becomes invalid, illegal or
     unenforceable in any respect under any law in any jurisdiction, the
     validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not
     be affected or impaired in any way.

25.  ASSIGNMENT

     The Security Trustee may at any time assign or otherwise transfer all or
     any part of its rights under this Deed in accordance with and subject to
     the terms of the Loan Agreement. Neither the Borrower nor any Subordinated
     Creditor may at any time assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights
     or obligations under this Deed.

26.  COUNTERPARTS

     This Deed may be executed in any number of counterparts and all of such
     counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
     instrument.


                                      -20-



27.  PERPETUITY PERIOD

     period of any trust established pursuant to this Deed shall be eighty (80)

28.  GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF IMMUNITY

28.1 GOVERNING LAW

     This Deed and all matters and disputes relating hereto shall be governed
     by, and construed in accordance with, English law.

28.2 JURISDICTION

     Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees for the benefit of the
     Security Trustee that the courts of England shall have non-exclusive
     jurisdiction to hear and determine any suit, action or proceeding, and to
     settle any disputes, which may arise out of or in connection with this Deed
     and, for such purposes, irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive
     jurisdiction of such courts.

28.3 WAIVER

     The Borrower and each Subordinated Creditor irrevocably waives any
     objection which it might now or hereafter have to the courts referred to in
     Clause 28.2 (Jurisdiction) being nominated as the forum to hear and
     determine any suit, action or proceeding, and to settle any disputes, which
     may arise out of or in connection with this Deed and agrees not to claim
     that any such court is not a convenient or appropriate forum.

28.4 PROCESS AGENT

     (a)  The Borrower and each Subordinated Creditor agrees that the process by
          which any suit, action or proceeding is begun may be served on it by
          being delivered in connection with any suit, action or proceeding in
          England, to it at:

          c/o Fleetside Legal Representative Services Limited
          9 Cheapside
          London EC2V 6AD
          England.

          If for any reason such process agent ceases to act as such or ceases
          to have an address in England, the Borrower and each Subordinated
          Creditor shall each promptly appoint another such agent and notify the
          Security Trustee of such appointment and the new agent's name and
          address.

28.5 NON-EXCLUSIVE

     The submission to the jurisdiction of the courts referred to in Clause 28.2
     (Jurisdiction) shall not (and shall not be construed so as to) limit the
     right of the Security Trustee or the Senior Creditors or any of them to
     take proceedings against


                                      -21-



     the Borrower or any Subordinated Creditor in any other court of competent
     jurisdiction nor shall the taking of proceedings in any one or more
     jurisdictions preclude the taking of proceedings in any other jurisdiction,
     whether concurrently or not.

28.6 WAIVER OF IMMUNITY

     To the extent that the Borrower or any of the Subordinated Creditors may be
     entitled in any jurisdiction to claim for itself or its assets immunity
     from suit, execution, attachment or other legal process whatsoever, it
     hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such
     immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdiction.

of the day and year first before written.
