          as amended from time to time, relating to MBO-VII (the "PARTNERSHIP

          relinquishment of "control" (as such term is defined in the Investment
          Company Act of 1940, as amended) of HoldCo by the persons or group of
          persons having such control prior thereto;

then, and in any such event, but subject to SECTIONS 13 and 14, (x) upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default described in subclause (i) or (ii) of clause
(d) of this SECTION 4 or in clause (e) of this SECTION 4, the unpaid principal
amount of and accrued interest on and all other amounts owing under this
Debenture shall automatically, without any further action of any person or
entity, mature and become due and payable, and (y) upon the occurrence and
during the continuation of any other Event of Default, the Holders of a majority
of the aggregate principal amount of the 6% Debentures then outstanding may at
any time (unless all Events of Default shall theretofore have been remedied) at
their option, by written notice or notices to HoldCo, declare the 6% Debentures

provided above in this SECTION 4.

          At any time after this Debenture is declared due and payable, as
provided in clause (y) above, the Holders of a majority of the aggregate
principal amount of the 6% Debentures then outstanding, by written notice to

          Subject to the provisions of SECTIONS 13 and 14, in case any one or
more Events of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Holder may proceed to
protect and enforce its rights by an action at law, suit in equity or other
appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement
contained herein, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms
hereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or by law or
otherwise. No course of dealing and no failure to exercise or delay in
exercising any right, power or remedy by or on the part of any Holder shall
operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice any Holder's rights, powers
or remedies nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or
remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right,

                                       -7-
<Page>

power or remedy. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Debenture upon any

person or entity in whose name this Debenture is registered on such register as
the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of the principal hereof
and interest hereon and for all other purposes (subject to the rights of prior
Holders under SECTION 11), whether or not this Debenture shall be overdue, and
HoldCo shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. All references in

otherwise contemplated with respect to prior Holders under this SECTION 6 and
SECTION 11).

and deliver in exchange therefor one or more new 6% Debentures in denominations
of at least $100,000 (except one such 6% Debenture issued in connection with
each such transfer or exchange may be issued in a lesser principal amount if the
unpaid principal amount of the surrendered 6% Debenture is not evenly divisible
by, or is less than, $100,000), as requested by the Holder or transferee, which
equal in the aggregate the unpaid principal amount of this Debenture, registered
as such Holder or transferee may request, dated so that there will be no loss of
interest by reason of such surrender, and otherwise of like tenor and form.
HoldCo may require payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp
tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer or exchange.

          8.   REPLACEMENT

ownership of, and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of, this Debenture
and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, an indemnity bond in
such reasonable amount as HoldCo may determine (or, if the Holder is any
financial institution or any nominee of the foregoing, of an unsecured indemnity
agreement from such Holder reasonably satisfactory to HoldCo), or, in the case
of any such mutilation, upon the surrender of this Debenture for cancellation to
HoldCo at its principal office, HoldCo at its expense (except as provided below)
will execute and deliver, in lieu hereof, a new 6% Debenture of like tenor and
form, dated so that there will be no loss of interest by reason of the loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of this Debenture. HoldCo may require payment
by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge
imposed in respect of any such replacement. If any such replacement Debenture
has been so executed and delivered by HoldCo, this Debenture shall not be deemed
to be outstanding for any purpose.

for cancellation. Prior to any sale or other disposition of this Debenture by
such Holder or its nominee, such Holder will, at its election, either endorse
hereon the amount of principal paid hereon and the last date to which interest
has been paid hereon or surrender this Debenture to HoldCo in exchange for a new
6% Debenture or Debentures pursuant to SECTION 7.

          10.  PREPAYMENT

          Subject to the provisions of SECTIONS 13 and 14, HoldCo may from time

pay any and all stamp and other taxes payable or determined to be payable in
connection with the execution and delivery of the 6% Debentures and agrees to
save the Holder harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect
to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes. The
rights of each Holder under this SECTION 11 shall survive any transfer of this
Debenture to another Holder and any exchange under SECTION 7 or replacement
under SECTION 8 with respect hereto.

          12.  UNSECURED OBLIGATION

          In order to ensure that the borrowing evidenced hereby is not
"indirectly secured" within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the interpretations of such Board
and its staff thereunder, notwithstanding the provisions contained herein,
HoldCo and its subsidiaries shall retain the full right and ability to sell,
pledge or otherwise dispose of "margin stock" and "margin securities" (as such
terms are defined in Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System and the interpretations of such Board and its staff
thereunder); and, to the extent that, pursuant to the terms hereof, such
borrowing is considered to be "indirectly secured," such terms (other than those
terms relating to the obligations to make payments of principal, premium and
interest) shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to prevent such
borrowing from being considered to be "indirectly secured".

          13.  SUBORDINATION

          By acceptance of this Debenture, the Holder hereby agrees as follows:

          13.1 EXPRESS SUBORDINATION. The Subordinated Obligations are expressly
subordinated and junior in right of payment (as defined in SUBSECTION 13.2) to
all Senior Obligations. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to make the
Subordinated Obligations subordinate and junior in right of payment to any
obligation of HoldCo other than the Senior Obligations.

          13.2 SUBORDINATION DEFINED. "Subordinate and junior in right of
payment" shall mean that:

               (a) If and to the extent that any Senior Obligations have been
          created, then, so long as any such Senior Obligations are outstanding
          and unpaid, at any time prior to the later of (A) 181 days following
          the date all Senior Obligation are paid in full in cash or (B) 181
          days after the latest maturity date of any loan made under the Senior
          Credit Agreement without the express written consent of the Senior
          Creditors, no direct or indirect payment on account of the
          Subordinated Obligations shall be made, nor shall any property or
          assets of HoldCo or any of its subsidiaries be directly or indirectly
          applied to the purchase or other acquisition or retirement of the 6%
          Debentures, nor shall the Holder take, demand, receive or institute
          legal proceedings to recover, and neither HoldCo nor any of its
          subsidiaries will make, give or permit, directly or indirectly, by
          set-off, redemption, purchase or in any other manner, any payment or
          security for the whole or any part of the Subordinated Obligations,
          nor (except as permitted by SUBSECTION 13.3) shall the Holder
          accelerate the scheduled maturities of any amount owing under the 6%
          Debentures (all of the foregoing actions being hereinafter referred to
          as "RESTRICTED ACTIONS"), if at the time of or immediately after
          giving effect to such Restricted Action a Senior Default or Senior
          Event of Default exists or would exist and is or would be continuing;
          PROVIDED that this SUBSECTION 13.2(a) shall not prevent any Restricted
          Action for a period (a

                                      -10-
<Page>

          "POSTPONEMENT PERIOD") longer than the period ending on the earliest
          of (i) the first day after the proposed taking of such Restricted
          Action on which no Senior Default or Senior Event of Default is then
          continuing, (ii) 120 days after the date such Restricted Action would
          otherwise have been taken if there has been delivered to the
          Administrative Agent by the Holder a notice stating that such Senior
          Default or Senior Event of Default exists, (iii) 120 days after the
          date such Restricted Action would otherwise have been taken if there
          has been delivered to the Administrative Agent by HoldCo a certificate
          from an officer of HoldCo or a letter from HoldCo's certified public
          accountants stating that such Senior Default or Senior Event of
          Default exists, (iv) the date on which the existence of such
          Postponement Period has been waived by the Senior Creditors, and (v)
          the later of (A) 181 days following the date all Senior Obligation are
          paid in full in cash or (B) 181 days after the latest maturity date of
          any loan made under the Senior Credit Agreement; PROVIDED, FURTHER,
          that if any Restricted Action shall have been prevented or postponed
          by reason of any Senior Default and the condition or event giving rise
          to such Senior Default gives rise to a Senior Event of Default, no
          subsequent Restricted Action may be prevented or postponed by reason
          of the occurrence of such Senior Event of Default, and PROVIDED,
          FURTHER, that if any Restricted Action shall have been prevented or
          postponed by reason of any Senior Default or Senior Event of Default,
          and after the occurrence of such Senior Default or Senior Event of
          Default and during the Postponement Period in respect thereof another
          Senior Default or Senior Event of Default shall have occurred, no such
          Restricted Action shall be prevented or postponed for any additional
          period by reason of such other Senior Default or Senior Event of
          Default (PROVIDED that, upon the occurrence of such additional Senior
          Default or Senior Event of Default, such first Postponement Period
          shall not be deemed to have ended upon the occurrence of any of the
          events specified in clause (i) through (iv) above).

               (b) (i) So long as any Senior Obligations are outstanding and
          unpaid, in the event of any distribution, division or application,
          partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or
          otherwise, of all or any substantial part of the property, assets or
          business of HoldCo, Citadel Communications or the Borrower, or the
          proceeds thereof, to any creditor or creditors of HoldCo, Citadel
          Communications or the Borrower other than in the ordinary course of
          business or as permitted in the Senior Credit Agreement then in
          effect, or (ii) upon any indebtedness of HoldCo, Citadel
          Communications or the Borrower becoming due and payable (or a proof of
          claim in respect thereof being filed in any applicable proceeding) by
          reason of any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of HoldCo,
          Citadel Communications or the Borrower or its business or upon the
          occurrence of any sale, receivership, insolvency, reorganization or
          bankruptcy proceedings, assignment for the benefit of creditors,
          arrangement or any proceeding by or against HoldCo, Citadel
          Communications or the Borrower for any relief under any bankruptcy,
          reorganization or insolvency law or laws, Federal or state, or any
          law, Federal or state, relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment
          of indebtedness, reorganization, composition, or extension,

                                      -11-
<Page>

          or (iii) if all amounts owing under the Senior Loans, or the
          Borrower's obligations with respect to the Letters of Credit and the
          L/C Applications or owing under guarantees made by HoldCo in respect
          thereof have become, or have been declared to be, due and payable (and
          have not been paid in accordance with their terms), then and in any
          such event, any payment or distribution of any kind or character,
          whether in cash, property or securities (other than any securities of
          HoldCo which are received by the Holder in any proceeding of the type
          referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above and which are subordinated to
          (A) the Senior Obligations and (B) any securities of HoldCo
          distributed to the holders of Senior Obligations, in a manner not less
          favorable to the Senior Creditors than the subordination of the
          Subordinated Obligations provided for in SECTIONS 13 and 14
          ("SUBORDINATED SECURITIES")), which, but for the subordination
          provisions contained herein, would otherwise be payable or deliverable
          to the Holder upon or in respect of the Subordinated Obligations,
          shall instead be paid over or delivered to the Senior Creditors which
          have Senior Obligations which are then due and payable (or in respect
          of which a proof of claim has been filed in any applicable proceeding)
          and promptly be applied (subject to applicable law) as a payment or
          prepayment on account of the Senior Obligations (or, in the case of
          non-cash property and cash received in respect of obligations under
          outstanding Letters of Credit which may be drawn upon, held as
          collateral to secure payment of the Senior Obligations) which are then
          due and payable (or in respect of which a proof of claim has been
          filed in any applicable proceeding) PRO RATA in accordance with the
          amounts thereof then due and payable (or in respect of which a proof
          of claim has been filed in any applicable proceeding), and the Holder
          shall not receive any such payment or distribution or any benefit
          therefrom unless and until the Senior Obligations which are then due
          and payable (or in respect of which a proof of claim has been filed in
          any applicable proceeding) shall have been fully paid and satisfied in
          cash.

          13.3 BANKRUPTCY PETITION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, so long as the Senior Obligations are outstanding and unpaid,
the Holder may declare the unpaid principal amount of, and accrued interest on,
the Subordinated Obligations to be immediately due and payable and may file or
join in the filing of a bankruptcy petition against HoldCo or take any action to
commence a bankruptcy proceeding against HoldCo only upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any of the following events:

               (a) the Senior Loans or the guarantees made by HoldCo in respect
          thereof shall have been declared to be, or shall have become, due and
          payable prior to the stated maturity thereof in accordance with the
          provisions of SECTION 14 of the Senior Credit Agreement;

               (b) HoldCo shall have failed to make any payment of principal of,
          or accrued interest on, the 6% Debentures, which payment is then due
          and payable, within five days after the later of the end of the
          applicable Postponement Period and 120 days after the date on which
          such payment is due and payable; or

                                      -12-
<Page>

               (c) after the earlier of the date on which all of the Senior
          Obligations have been paid in full in accordance with the Senior
          Credit Agreement and 181 days after the latest maturity date of any
          loan made under the Senior Credit Agreement an Event of Default shall
          have occurred and then be continuing under the 6% Debentures.

If the 6% Debentures shall have been declared to be due and payable in
accordance with the provisions of this SUBSECTION 13.3 (under circumstances when
the provisions of SUBSECTION 13.2(b) are not applicable), any payment or
distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities,
which are received by the Holder in respect of or after such acceleration or any
legal proceedings brought in connection therewith shall forthwith be paid over
or delivered to the Senior Creditors which have Senior Obligations which are
then due and payable (or in respect of which a proof of claim has been filed in
any applicable proceeding) and promptly be applied (subject to applicable law)
as a payment or prepayment on account of the Senior Obligations (or, in the case
of non-cash property and cash received in respect of obligations under
outstanding Letters of Credit which may be drawn upon, held as collateral to
secure payment of the Senior Obligations) which are then due and payable (or in
respect of which a proof of claim has been filed in any applicable proceeding)
PRO RATA in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable, and the
Holder shall not retain any such payment or distribution or any benefit
therefrom unless and until the Senior Obligations which are then due and payable
(or in respect of which a proof of claim has been filed in any applicable
proceeding) shall have been fully paid and satisfied.

          14.  LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY; TRUST; SUBROGATION

          By acceptance of this Debenture, the Holder hereby agrees as follows:

          14.1 LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY. The Holder irrevocably authorizes and
empowers the Senior Creditors under the circumstances set forth in clause (i) or
(ii) of SUBSECTION 13.2(b), to demand, sue for, collect and receive every such
payment or distribution referred to in such subsection and give acquittance
thereof, and take such other proceedings, in the name of the Senior Creditors or
in the name of the Holders or otherwise, as the Senior Creditors may deem
reasonably necessary or advisable for the enforcement of the subordination
provisions contained in SECTION 13. The Holder shall, under the circumstances
set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of SUBSECTION 13.2(b), duly and promptly take
such action as may be reasonably requested at any time and from time to time by
the Senior Creditors to file appropriate proofs of claim in respect of the
Subordinated Obligations, and to execute and deliver such powers of attorney,
assignments or other instruments as may be reasonably requested by the Senior
Creditors in order to enable the Senior Creditors to enforce any and all claims
upon or in respect of the Subordinated Obligations and to collect and receive
any and all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable at any
time upon or in respect of the Subordinated Obligations. Any such amounts
received by the Senior Creditors shall be applied (subject to applicable law) to
the payment of the Senior Obligations then payable (or in respect of which
proofs of claim have been filed in any applicable proceeding) in accordance with
the terms of the Senior Credit Agreement.

                                      -13-
<Page>

          14.2 MONIES HELD IN TRUST. Should any payment or distribution or
security, or the proceeds of any thereof, be collected or received by the Holder
in respect of the Subordinated Obligations (other than Subordinated Securities)
and such collection or receipt is at the time prohibited by SECTION 13, the
Holder will forthwith turn over the same to the Senior Creditors, in the form
received (except for the endorsement or the assignment of the Holder when
necessary) and, until so turned over, the same shall be held in trust by the
Holder as the property of the Senior Creditors. Any such amounts received by the
Senior Creditors shall be applied (subject to applicable law) to the payment of
the Senior Obligations then payable (or in respect of which proofs of claim have
been filed in any applicable proceeding) in accordance with the terms of the
Senior Credit Agreement.

          14.3 SUBROGATION. Following payment in full in cash of the Senior
Obligations, the Holder shall be subrogated to the rights of the Senior
Creditors to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities
made on the Senior Obligations until the Subordinated Obligations shall be paid
in full; and, for the purpose of such subrogation, payments or distributions to
the Senior Creditors of any cash, property or securities to which the Holder
would be entitled except for the provisions of SECTION 13 shall, as between
HoldCo and its creditors (other than the Senior Creditors and the Holders), be
deemed to be a payment by HoldCo to or on account of Subordinated Obligations,
it being understood that the provisions hereof are and are intended solely for
the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the 6% Debentures,
on the one hand, and the Senior Creditors, on the other hand. The purpose of
this SUBSECTION 14.3 is to grant to the Holders the same rights against HoldCo
with respect to the aggregate amount of such payments or distributions as the
Senior Creditors would have against HoldCo if such aggregate amount were
considered overdue Senior Obligations.

          15.  WAIVER BY SENIOR CREDITORS, ETC.

          By acceptance of this Debenture the Holder hereby consents that,
without the necessity of any reservation of rights against the Holder, and
without notice to or further assent by the Holder, (a) any demand for payment of
any Senior Obligation made by any Senior Creditor may be rescinded in whole or
in part by such Senior Creditor (whereupon HoldCo shall give prompt notice
thereof to the Holders) and any Senior Obligation may be continued, and the
Senior Obligations, or the liability of HoldCo, Citadel Communications, the
Borrower or any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral
security or guaranty therefor or right or offset with respect thereto, or any
obligation or liability of HoldCo, Citadel Communications, the Borrower or any
other party under the Senior Credit Agreement and any collateral security
documents or guarantees or documents in connection therewith may, from time to
time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, modified, accelerated,
compromised, waived, surrendered, or released by the Senior Creditors, and (b)
the Senior Credit Agreement, the Senior Loans, the Letters of Credit, the L/C
Applications and any guarantees made by HoldCo or any other person in respect
thereof and any document or instrument evidencing or governing the terms of any
other Senior Obligations or any collateral security documents or guarantees or
documents in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or
terminated, in whole or in part, as the Senior Creditors with respect to such
Senior Obligations may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral
security or guarantee at any time held by any of the Senior Creditors for the
payment of any of the Senior Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived,

                                      -14-
<Page>

surrendered or released, in each case all without notice to or further assent by
the Holders who will remain bound by the terms hereof, and all without
impairing, abridging, releasing or affecting the subordination provided for
herein, notwithstanding any such renewal, extension, modification, acceleration,
compromise, amendment, supplement, termination, sale, exchange, waiver,
surrender or release; PROVIDED that so long as any Senior Obligations are
outstanding and unpaid the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agents and the
Lenders will not amend the Senior Credit Agreement to increase the interest
rates applicable to the Loans (as defined on the Senior Credit Agreement) or to
increase commissions or other fees payable with respect to the Letters of Credit
or to increase the maximum principal amount of the Senior Loans which may be
outstanding at any one time or the maximum amount of reimbursement obligations
in respect of Letters of Credit that may be outstanding at any one time, in each
case as set forth in the Senior Credit Agreement, without the written consent of
the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the 6% Debentures
then outstanding, PROVIDED that without the consent of any Holder, but in
accordance with SECTION 16, the maximum principal amount of the Senior Loans
(including, without limitation, amounts outstanding under the Incremental
Facilities) which may be outstanding at any one time and the maximum amount of
reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit that may be
outstanding at any one time may be increased up to $200,000,000 in the
aggregate, together with accrued interest thereon and commissions with respect
thereto. By acceptance of this Debenture the Holder waives any and all notice of
the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Senior Obligations and
notice of or proof of reliance by any Senior Creditor upon the terms and
provisions hereof, and the Senior Obligations, and any of them, shall
conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance
upon the terms and provisions hereof, and all dealings between HoldCo and the
Senior Creditors shall be deemed to have been consummated in reliance upon the
terms and provisions hereof. By acceptance of this Debenture the Holder
acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders have relied upon the subordination
provided for herein in entering into the Senior Credit Agreement and in making
funds available to the Borrower thereunder, and that other Senior Creditors will
rely upon the subordination provided for herein in extending credit to, or
accepting the obligations, liabilities or guarantees of, HoldCo or the Borrower
and their subsidiaries. By acceptance of this Debenture the Holder waives notice
of or proof of reliance on this Debenture and protest, demand for payment and
notice of default by the Senior Creditors.

          16.  INCREASE IN AMOUNT OF SENIOR OBLIGATIONS

          At any time and from time to time HoldCo may designate any of the
Borrower's indebtedness, obligations and/or liabilities and guarantees made by
HoldCo in respect thereof as Senior Obligations, in accordance with clause (c)
of the definition of Senior Obligations, by delivering to each Holder of the 6%
Debentures a Notice of Designation which shall have attached to it a list of all
outstanding Senior Obligations which HoldCo has heretofore, and which remain,
designated as Senior Obligations pursuant to this SECTION 16 (which attached
list may not be relied upon by the Holder for purposes of preventing any Senior
Obligations from being considered as such if no notice pursuant to the next
sentence has been sent by such Holder prior to the end of the eleven day period
referred to in such sentence, but shall be deemed to have been relied upon by
such Holder for purposes of determining damages payable by HoldCo suffered or
incurred by such Holder as a result of such list not being true and correct).
Each such Notice of Designation shall be effective with respect to the
indebtedness, obligations and/or liabilities

                                      -15-
<Page>

described therein on the 11th day following actual receipt thereof by the Holder
unless prior to such 11th day, the Holder has given notice to the proposed
Senior Creditor (at its address specified in such Notice of Designation) and
HoldCo that the principal amount of the indebtedness, obligations and/or
liabilities described in such Notice of Designation together with the aggregate
principal amount of indebtedness, obligations and liabilities previously
designated as Senior Obligations under this SECTION 16, after taking into
account all notices theretofore received by the Holder terminating or reducing
the amount of indebtedness, obligations and liabilities theretofore included in
the Senior Obligations (including, without limitation, amounts outstanding under
the Incremental Facilities), exceeds $200,000,000 in the aggregate. By
acceptance of this Debenture the Holder hereby agrees that it shall not give,
and shall be responsible for all direct and consequential damages resulting
from, any such notice which such Holder knows is not true and correct. Upon the
effectiveness of a Notice of Designation, the indebtedness, obligations and/or
liabilities specified therein shall automatically become Senior Obligations and
the holder or holders thereof or obligee or obligees with respect thereto shall
automatically become Senior Creditors, in each case for all purposes of this
Debenture, whether or not the Holder shall have acknowledged receipt of the
Notice of Designation. Senior Obligations shall cease to be such, or the
principal amount thereof designated as such shall be reduced, only (i) upon
actual receipt by the Holders of a notice from the holder or holders of such
Senior Obligations or obligee or obligees with respect thereto terminating the
designation of such indebtedness, obligations and/or liabilities as Senior
Obligations or reducing the amount of such indebtedness, obligations and/or
liabilities so designated, or (ii) when the Senior Obligations have in fact been
paid in full or reduced and the Holders shall have received notice from HoldCo
of such fact together with evidence satisfactory to it that the Senior
Obligations have been so paid or reduced. At the request of HoldCo, the Holder
will confirm in writing to any Senior Creditor that the indebtedness,
obligations and/or liabilities held by such Senior Creditor and designated to be
Senior Obligations are Senior Obligations. However, the failure or refusal of
any Holder to issue any such confirmation shall not affect the status as Senior
Obligations of any indebtedness, obligations and/or liabilities properly
designated by HoldCo to be Senior Obligations in accordance with the provisions
of this Debenture.

          17.  RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

          By acceptance of this Debenture, the Holder hereby agrees as follows:

          17.1 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. The Holder shall not, directly or
indirectly, sell, assign, exchange, dispose of or otherwise transfer the 6%
Debentures (any one or more of such acts being a "TRANSFER") unless:

               (a) such Transfer is of the whole, and not merely a part, of the
          Holder's direct or beneficial interest in the 6% Debentures and is for
          cash consideration only; and

               (b) such Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration
          statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Holder
          delivers to HoldCo an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in
          securities law (including in-house or special counsel), which opinion
          and counsel shall be reasonably

                                      -16-
<Page>

          satisfactory to HoldCo, retained at the Holder's expense, to the
          effect that the proposed Transfer is exempt from registration under
          applicable Federal and state securities laws; and

               (c) such Transfer does not otherwise violate any law, statute,
          rule, regulation, order or decree of the United States of America or
          any state thereof or any governmental authority of any of the
          foregoing; and

               (d) such Transfer is to a third-party transferee (the
          "TRANSFEREE") which Transferee does not, directly or indirectly,
          beneficially own, either alone or together with its Affiliates,
          immediately prior to such Transfer in excess of 5% of the aggregate
          principal amount of the 6% Debentures then outstanding; and

               (e) such Transfer is made in a cash transaction but only after
          the Holder complies with the provisions of SUBSECTION 17.2.

          17.2 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.

               (a) If, at any time, the Holder proposes to Transfer for cash
          its entire interest in the 6% Debentures, the Holder shall give a
          written notice (a "TRANSFER NOTICE") to HoldCo (i) specifying (A) that
          the proposed Transfer will be in compliance with all of the provisions
          of SECTION 17.1, (B) the identity of the proposed third-party
          transferee (the "TRANSFEREE") who has made a BONA FIDE offer to
          purchase the Holder's entire interest in the 6% Debentures, (C) the
          proposed cash consideration to be received by the Holder for such
          interest (the "TRANSFER PRICE"), and (D) any other terms and
          conditions of the proposed Transfer, and (ii) offering to sell the
          Holder's entire interest in the 6% Debentures at the Transfer Price to
          HoldCo. The Transfer Notice shall constitute an irrevocable offer by
          the Holder to sell the Holder's entire interest in the 6% Debentures
          to HoldCo upon the terms contained in the Transfer Notice.

               (b) HoldCo shall have the right, exercisable for 15 Business
          Days following the date of such receipt of the Transfer Notice, to
          purchase for cash the Holder's entire interest in the 6% Debentures at
          the Transfer Price by delivering a written notice (the "PURCHASE
          NOTICE") to the Holder of its election within such 15 Business Day
          period. If HoldCo elects to so purchase the Holder's interest, the
          Holder shall execute such documents and instruments reasonably
          required by HoldCo to consummate the contemplated transaction. The
          closing of such purchase shall take place as soon as practicable after
          the date of the Purchase Notice, but in any case within 15 Business
          Days following HoldCo's initial receipt of the Transfer Notice. At
          such closing, the Holder shall, and hereby covenants to, Transfer its
          entire interest in the 6% Debentures to HoldCo free and clear of any
          and all liens, mortgages, pledges, security interests or other
          encumbrances against receipt of payment thereof.

               (c) If HoldCo does not deliver a Purchase Notice within 15
          Business Days following its receipt of a Transfer Notice, then the
          Holder (i) shall be under no obligation to sell any portion of its
          interest in the 6% Debentures to HoldCo, and (ii) may, within the
          period commencing on the 16th Business Day and ending on the 30th
          Business Day following HoldCo's receipt of the Transfer Notice,
          Transfer its entire (but not less than its entire) interest in the 6%
          Debentures to the Transferee specified in the Transfer Notice at the
          Transfer Price and on the terms and conditions set forth in the
          Transfer Notice. If, upon the expiration of the 30th Business Day
          following receipt by HoldCo of the Transfer Notice, such Transfer
          shall not have occurred, then the provisions of this SECTION 17.2
          shall apply again and the Holder shall comply with the terms hereof in
          connection with any subsequent proposed Transfer.

          17.3 TRANSFER OTHERWISE VOID. Any purported Transfer of the Holder's
interest in the 6% Debentures made other than in accordance with this SECTION 17
shall be void and HoldCo shall not be required to recognize any equitable or
other claims to such interest on the part of any purported transferee.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of this SECTION
17 shall not apply to Transfers by MBO-VII acting in a manner contemplated by
Section 3.2(a)(i) of the Partnership Agreement.
