                                       3
<PAGE>

SECTION 3. REGISTERED EXCHANGE OFFER

      (a) Unless the Exchange  Offer shall not be permitted by applicable law or
Commission  policy (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a)(i) below have
been  complied  with),  the  Company  and the  Guarantors  shall  (i) use  their
commercially  reasonable  efforts  to  cause  the  Exchange  Offer  Registration
Statement  to be filed  with the  Commission  as soon as  practicable  after the
Closing Date, (ii) use  commercially  reasonable  efforts to cause such Exchange
Offer  Registration  Statement to be declared  effective by the Commission on or
prior to 365 days after the Issue Date (such 365th day being the  "Effectiveness
Deadline"),  (iii)  in  connection  with the  foregoing,  use  their  respective
commercially reasonable best efforts to (A) file all pre-effective amendments to
such Exchange Offer Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to cause
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective, (B) file, if
applicable,  a  post-effective  amendment to such  Exchange  Offer  Registration
Statement  pursuant  to Rule  430A  under the  Securities  Act and (C) cause all
necessary filings, if any, in connection with the registration and qualification
of the Exchange  Notes to be made under the Blue Sky laws of such  jurisdictions
as are necessary to permit Consummation of the Exchange Offer; provided, however
that neither the Company nor the Guarantors shall be required to take any action
that would  subject  them to general  service  of  process  or  taxation  in any
jurisdiction  where they are not  already so  subject,  and (iv) as  promptly as
practicable  following the  effectiveness  of such Exchange  Offer  Registration
Statement,  commence and Consummate the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer shall
be on the appropriate  form permitting (i) registration of the Exchange Notes to
be  offered in  exchange  for the Senior  Subordinated  Notes that are  Transfer
Restricted  Securities and (ii) resales of Exchange Notes by Broker-Dealers that
tendered  into  the  Exchange   Offer  Senior   Subordinated   Notes  that  such
Broker-Dealer  acquired  for  its own  account  as a  result  of  market  making
activities or other trading  activities  (other than Senior  Subordinated  Notes
acquired  directly from the Company or any of its Affiliates) as contemplated by
Section 3(c) below.

      (b) Unless the Exchange  Offer shall not be permitted by applicable law or
Commission  policy,  the Company and the Guarantors  shall use their  respective
commercially  reasonable  efforts  to  cause  the  Exchange  Offer  Registration
Statement to be effective  continuously,  and shall keep the Exchange Offer open
for a period of not less  than the  minimum  period  required  under  applicable
federal and state  securities laws to Consummate the Exchange  Offer;  provided,
however,  that in no event shall such period be less than 20 Business  Days. The
Company and the  Guarantors  shall cause the  Exchange  Offer to comply with all
applicable  federal and state  securities  laws.  No  securities  other than the
Exchange  Notes and the Company's  9.25% Senior Notes due 2015 and the Company's
9.625%/10.375%  Senior  Toggle  Notes due 2015,  both issued on the date hereof,
shall be included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement.  The Company and
the Guarantors shall use commercially  reasonable  efforts to cause the Exchange
Offer to be  Consummated  on the  earliest  practicable  date after the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement has become effective, but in no event later than 30
Business Days thereafter,  or longer, if required by the federal securities laws
(the last day of such period being the "Consummation Deadline").

      (c) The Company and the Guarantors  shall include a "Plan of Distribution"
section in the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
and indicate therein that any Broker-Dealer who holds Senior  Subordinated Notes
that are Transfer Restricted Securities


                                       4
<PAGE>

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

      Because such Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the
meaning of the Securities Act and must, therefore,  deliver a prospectus meeting
the  requirements  of the Securities Act in connection  with its initial sale of
any Exchange Notes received by such  Broker-Dealer  in the Exchange  Offer,  the
Company and the Guarantors  shall permit the use of the Prospectus  contained in
the Exchange Offer Registration  Statement by such Broker-Dealer to satisfy such
prospectus  delivery  requirement.  To the extent  necessary  to ensure that the
prospectus  contained in the Exchange Offer Registration  Statement is available
for sales of Exchange  Notes by  Broker-Dealers,  the Company and the Guarantors
agree  to use  their  respective  commercially  reasonable  efforts  to keep the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement continuously  effective,  supplemented and
amended as  required by and subject to the  provisions  of Section  6(a) and (c)
hereof and in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement, the Securities
Act and the policies,  rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from
time to time,  for a period of 180 days from the  Consummation  Deadline or such
shorter period as will terminate when all Transfer Restricted Securities covered
by such Registration  Statement have been sold pursuant thereto. The Company and
the  Guarantors  shall provide  sufficient  copies of the latest version of such
Prospectus to such Broker-Dealers, promptly upon request at any time during such
period.

SECTION 4. SHELF REGISTRATION

      (a) Shelf Registration.  If (i) the Company and the Guarantors are not (A)
required to file the Exchange Offer  Registration  Statement or (B) permitted to
Consummate  the Exchange  Offer  because the Exchange  Offer is not permitted by
applicable  law or Commission  policy or (ii) any Holder of Transfer  Restricted
Securities notifies the Company within 20 days following the consummation of the
Exchange Offer that (A) such Holder was  prohibited by law or Commission  policy
from  participating  in the Exchange  Offer;  (B) such Holder may not resell the
Exchange  Notes  acquired  by it in the  Exchange  Offer to the  public  without
delivering  a prospectus  and the  Prospectus  contained  in the Exchange  Offer
Registration  Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales by such
Holder;  or (C) such Holder is a  Broker-Dealer  and holds  Senior  Subordinated
Notes  acquired  directly  from the Company or any of its  Affiliates,  then the
Company and the Guarantors  shall use their respective  commercially  reasonable
efforts to file with the Commission a Shelf  Registration  Statement (as defined
below) to cover  resales  of the  Senior  Subordinated  Notes by  Holders of the
Senior  Subordinated  Notes  who  satisfy  certain  conditions  relating  to the
provision of information in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement. If
obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors
shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to:


                                       5
<PAGE>

      (x) file,  on or prior to 180 days  after the  earlier  of (i) the date on
which the Company  determines  that the Exchange  Offer  Registration  Statement
cannot be filed as a result of  clause  (a)(i)  above and (ii) the date on which
the Company  receives the notice specified in clause (a)(ii) above (such earlier
date, the "Filing  Deadline"),  a shelf registration  statement pursuant to Rule
415 under the  Securities  Act (which may be an amendment to the Exchange  Offer
Registration  Statement (the "Shelf Registration  Statement")),  relating to all
Transfer  Restricted  Securities of Holders that have  provided the  information
required pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof; and

      (y) cause such Shelf  Registration  Statement to be declared  effective by
the Commission on or prior to 185 days after the Filing Deadline (such 185th day
the "Effectiveness Deadline").

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

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

      (b) Provision by Holders of Certain  Information  in  Connection  with the
Shelf Registration  Statement.  No Holder of Transfer Restricted  Securities may
include any of its  Transfer  Restricted  Securities  in any Shelf  Registration
Statement  pursuant to this Agreement unless and until (i) such Holder furnishes
to the Company in writing,  within 20 days after receipt of a request  therefor,
the information  specified in Item 507 or Item 508 of Regulation S-K promulgated
by  the  Commission,  as  applicable,  for  use in  connection  with  any  Shelf
Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary prospectus included therein,
and (ii) in the case of an  underwritten  offering,  such Holder  completes  and
executes  all  questionnaires,  powers  of  attorney,  underwriting  agreements,
lock-up  letters  and other  documents  reasonably  requested  by the Company in
connection with the terms of such underwritten offering.  Furthermore, no Holder
of Transfer  Restricted  Securities  may include any of its Transfer  Restricted
Securities in any Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless
and until such Holder furnishes to the Company in writing,  within five Business
Days  after  receipt  of a  request  therefor,  such  Holder's  comments  to the
disclosure  relating to such  Holder in the Shelf  Registration  Statement..  No
Holder  of  Transfer  Restricted  Securities  shall be  entitled  to  additional
interest pursuant to Section 5 hereof unless such Holder shall have provided all
such information in the required


                                       6
<PAGE>

times.  Each selling Holder agrees to promptly  furnish  additional  information
required to be disclosed in order to make the information  previously  furnished
to the Company by such Holder not materially misleading.

      (c)  Suspension.  Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary and subject to
the limitation set forth in the next succeeding paragraph, at any time after the
effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall be entitled
to  suspend  its  obligation  to file any  amendment  to the Shelf  Registration
Statement,  furnish any supplement or amendment to a Prospectus  included in the
Shelf Registration Statement,  make any other filing with the Commission,  cause
the Shelf  Registration  Statement or other filing with the Commission to remain
effective or take any similar action (collectively, "Registration Actions") upon
(A) the issuance by the Commission of a stop order suspending the  effectiveness
of the Shelf  Registration  Statement  or the  initiation  of  proceedings  with
respect to the Shelf  Registration  Statement  under Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the
Securities  Act, (B) the occurrence of any event or the existence of any fact as
a result of which the Shelf  Registration  Statement  would or shall contain any
untrue  statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements  therein,  in the light
of the  circumstances  under  which they were made,  not  misleading  or (C) the
occurrence or existence of any corporate  development that, in the discretion of
the Company, makes it appropriate to postpone or suspend the availability of the
Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus.  Upon the occurrence of
any of the  conditions  described in clause (A),  (B) or (C) above,  the Company
shall give prompt notice (a "Suspension  Notice")  thereof to the Holders.  Upon
the termination of such condition,  the Company shall give prompt notice thereof
to the Holders and shall  promptly  proceed with all  Registration  Actions that
were suspended pursuant to this paragraph.

      (d) The  Company may only  suspend  Registration  Actions  pursuant to the
preceding paragraph for one or more periods (each, a "Suspension Period") not to
exceed,  in the aggregate,  (x) 45 days in any three month period or (y) 90 days
in any two-year  period,  during which no  additional  interest (as described in
Section 5) shall be payable.  Each Suspension Period shall be deemed to begin on
the date of the relevant  Suspension Notice is given to the Holders and shall be
deemed to end on the earlier to occur of (1) the date on which the Company gives
the Holders a notice that the Suspension  Period has terminated and (2) the date
on which the number of days during which a Suspension  Period has been in effect
exceeds, in the aggregate,  (x) 45 days in any three month period or (y) 90 days
in any two-year period.

SECTION 5. ADDITIONAL INTEREST

      Subject to the Company's  rights set forth in Sections 4(c), 4(d) and 6(d)
hereof,  if (i) any  Registration  Statement  required by this Agreement has not
been  declared  effective  by the  Commission  on or  prior  to  the  applicable
Effectiveness  Deadline,  (ii) the Exchange Offer has not been Consummated on or
prior to the  Consummation  Deadline or (iii) any Shelf  Registration  Statement
required by this Agreement is filed and declared  effective but shall thereafter
cease to be  effective  or fail to be usable for its  intended  purpose,  except
during any Suspension Period, without being succeeded within 10 Business Days by
a post-effective  amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement that cures such
failure and that is filed and itself declared  effective within such 10 Business
Day  period  (each such  event  referred  to in clauses  (i)  through  (iii),  a
"Registration Default"),  then the Company and the Guarantors hereby jointly and
severally


                                       7
<PAGE>

agree to pay to each Holder of Transfer  Restricted  Securities affected thereby
additional  interest  in an amount  equal to 0.25%  per  annum of the  principal
amount of  Transfer  Restricted  Securities  held by such  Holder  for the first
90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration Default.
The amount of the additional  interest shall increase by an additional 0.25% per
annum of the principal amount of Transfer Restricted  Securities with respect to
each subsequent  90-day period until all Registration  Defaults have been cured,
up to a maximum amount of additional  interest for all Registration  Defaults of
1% per annum of the principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities; provided
that the  Company  and the  Guarantors  shall in no  event  be  required  to pay
additional  interest  for more than one  Registration  Default at any given time
and, in the case of a Shelf Registration  Statement,  it is expressly understood
that  additional  interest  would be  payable  only  with  respect  to  Transfer
Restricted Securities so requested to be registered pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii)
of this  Agreement.  Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary set forth herein,
(1) upon  filing  of the  Exchange  Offer  Registration  Statement  (and/or,  if
applicable,  the Shelf  Registration  Statement),  in the case of (i) above, (2)
upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration  Statement (and/or, if
applicable,  the Shelf Registration  Statement),  in the case of (ii) above, (3)
upon Consummation of the Exchange Offer, in the case of (iii) above, or (4) upon
the filing of a  post-effective  amendment to the  Registration  Statement or an
additional  Registration  Statement that causes the Exchange Offer  Registration
Statement (and/or, if applicable,  the Shelf Registration Statement) to again be
declared  effective  or made  usable in the case of (iv) above,  the  additional
interest payable with respect to the Transfer Restricted  Securities as a result
of such clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), as applicable,  shall cease on the date
of such cure and the interest rate on such Transfer  Restricted  Securities will
revert to the interest rate on such Transfer Restricted  Securities prior to the
applicable Registration Default.

      All accrued  additional  interest  shall be paid to the  Holders  entitled
thereto, in the manner provided for the payment of interest in the Indenture, on
each  Interest  Payment  Date (as defined in the  Indenture),  as more fully set
forth in the Indenture and the Senior  Subordinated  Notes.  Notwithstanding the
fact  that any  securities  for  which  additional  interest  is due cease to be
Transfer  Restricted  Securities,   all  obligations  of  the  Company  and  the
Guarantors to pay additional  interest with respect to securities  shall survive
until such time as such  obligations  with respect to such securities shall have
been  satisfied in full.  Notwithstanding  anything  contained  herein or in the
Indenture to the contrary,  the payment of additional interest shall be the only
remedy  available to holders of Senior  Subordinated  Notes for any Registration
Default.  Furthermore,  notwithstanding  the fact that any  securities for which
additional  interest  is due cease to be  Transfer  Restricted  Securities,  all
obligations of the Company and the  Guarantors to pay  additional  interest with
respect to securities  shall survive  until such time as such  obligations  with
respect to such securities shall have been satisfied in full.

      The amount of additional  interest payable shall not increase because more
than one  Registration  Default has occurred and is continuing,  and a Holder of
Senior  Subordinated Notes or Exchange Notes who is not entitled to the benefits

Offer,  the Company  and the  Guarantors  shall (x) comply  with all  applicable
provisions of Section 6(c) below, (y) use their respective reasonable efforts to
effect  such   exchange   and  to  permit  the  resale  of  Exchange   Notes  by
Broker-Dealers  that tendered in the Exchange  Offer Senior  Subordinated  Notes
that such  Broker-Dealer  acquired for its own account as a result of its market
making activities or other trading  activities  (other than Senior  Subordinated
Notes acquired directly from the Company or any of its Affiliates) being sold in
accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof set forth
in the  Registration  Statement,  and  (z)  comply  with  all  of the  following
provisions:

            (i) As a condition to its  participation in the Exchange Offer, each
      Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities  (including,  without limitation,
      any Holder who is a Broker Dealer) shall furnish,  upon the request of the
      Company,  prior to the  Consummation  of the  Exchange  Offer,  a  written
      representation  to the Company and the Guarantors  (which may be contained
      in  the  letter  of  transmittal   contemplated   by  the  Exchange  Offer
      Registration  Statement)  to the effect that (A) it is not an Affiliate of
      the  Company,  (B) it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in,
      and has no arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in,
      a  distribution  of the Exchange  Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer
      and (C) it is  acquiring  the  Exchange  Notes in its  ordinary  course of
      business.  As a condition to its  participation in the Exchange Offer each
      Holder using the Exchange Offer to  participate  in a distribution  of the
      Exchange  Notes shall  acknowledge  and agree that,  if the resales are of
      Exchange Notes obtained by such Holder in exchange for Senior Subordinated
      Notes acquired directly from the Company or an Affiliate  thereof,  it (1)
      could  not,  under  Commission  policy  as in  effect  on the date of this
      Agreement,  rely on the position of the  Commission  enunciated  in Morgan
      Stanley and Co., Inc.  (available June 5, 1991) and Exxon Capital Holdings
      Corporation  (available May 13, 1988), as interpreted in the  Commission's
      letter to Shearman & Sterling  dated July 2, 1993,  and similar  no-action
      letters, and (2) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery
      requirements of the Securities Act in connection  with a secondary  resale
      transaction and that such a secondary  resale  transaction must be covered
      by an effective  registration  statement  containing the selling  security
      holder  information  required  by  Item  507 or  508,  as  applicable,  of
      Regulation S-K.

            (ii)  Prior to  effectiveness  of the  Exchange  Offer  Registration
      Statement,  the Company and the  Guarantors  shall provide a  supplemental
      letter to the  Commission  (A) stating that the Company and the Guarantors
      are  registering  the  Exchange  Offer in reliance on the  position of the
      Commission enunciated in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available May
      13,  1988),  Morgan  Stanley  and Co.,  Inc.  (available  June 5, 1991) as
      interpreted in the  Commission's  letter to Shearman & Sterling dated July
      2, 1993 and (B)  including a  representation  that neither the Company nor
      any of the  Guarantors has entered into any  arrangement or  understanding
      with any Person to  distribute  the  Exchange  Notes to be received in the
      Exchange  Offer and that, to the Company's and the  Guarantors'  knowledge
      and belief,  each Holder  participating in the Exchange Offer is acquiring
      the Exchange Notes in its ordinary course of business and


                                       9
<PAGE>

      has no arrangement or understanding  with any Person to participate in the
      distribution of the Exchange Notes received in the Exchange Offer.

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

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

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

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

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

            (ii)  prepare  and file  with the  Commission  such  amendments  and
      post-effective  amendments to the applicable Registration Statement as may
      be necessary to keep such


                                       10
<PAGE>

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

            (iii) advise each Holder  promptly and, if requested by such Holder,
      confirm such advice in writing,  (A) when the Prospectus or any Prospectus
      supplement or  post-effective  amendment has been filed, and, with respect
      to any applicable  Registration Statement or any post-effective  amendment
      thereto,  when the same has become  effective,  (B) of any  request by the
      Commission for amendments to the  Registration  Statement or amendments or
      supplements  to the  Prospectus  or for  additional  information  relating
      thereto,  (C) of  the  issuance  by  the  Commission  of  any  stop  order
      suspending  the  effectiveness  of the  Registration  Statement  under the
      Securities Act or of the suspension by any state securities  commission of
      the  qualification of the Transfer  Restricted  Securities for offering or
      sale in any  jurisdiction,  or the initiation of any proceeding for any of
      the preceding purposes,  (D) of the existence of any fact or the happening
      of any event  that  makes any  statement  of a  material  fact made in the
      Registration  Statement,  the  Prospectus,  any  amendment  or  supplement
      thereto or any document  incorporated by reference therein untrue, or that
      requires  the making of any  additions  to or changes in the  Registration
      Statement in order to make the statements therein not misleading,  or that
      requires the making of any  additions to or changes in the  Prospectus  in
      order to make the statements  therein,  in the light of the  circumstances
      under which they were made, not  misleading  (provided,  however,  that no
      advice by the Company shall be required pursuant to this clause (D) in the
      event that the Company either  promptly  files a Prospectus  supplement to
      update the  Prospectus  or a Form 8-K or other  appropriate  Exchange  Act
      report that is incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement,
      which, in either case, contains the requisite  information with respect to
      such event or facts that results in such Registration  Statement no longer
      containing  any untrue  statement of material  fact or omitting to state a
      material  fact  necessary  to make the  statements  contained  therein not
      misleading).  If at any time the  Commission  shall  issue any stop  order
      suspending the effectiveness of the Registration  Statement,  or any state
      securities  commission or other regulatory  authority shall issue an order
      suspending  the  qualification  or  exemption  from  qualification  of the
      Transfer  Restricted  Securities  under state securities or Blue Sky laws,
      the Company and the  Guarantors  shall use their  respective  commercially
      reasonable  efforts to obtain the  withdrawal  or lifting of such order at
      the earliest possible time;

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


                                       11
<PAGE>

      necessary  to  make  the   statements   therein,   in  the  light  of  the
      circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

            (v) in the case of a Shelf Registration  Statement,  furnish to each
      Holder named in any such  Registration  Statement in connection  with such
      exchange or sale, if any, before filing with the Commission, copies of any
      Registration   Statement  or  any  Prospectus   included  therein  or  any
      amendments or supplements to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus
      (including  all  documents  incorporated  by  reference  after the initial
      filing of such Registration Statement), which documents will be subject to
      the review and comment of such Holders in  connection  with such sale,  if
      any, for a period of at least five Business Days, and the Company will not
      file any such  Registration  Statement or  Prospectus  or any amendment or
      supplement to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (including all
      such  documents  incorporated  by  reference)  to which such Holders shall
      reasonably  object within five Business Days after the receipt thereof.  A
      Holder shall be deemed to have reasonably  objected to such filing if such
      Registration   Statement,   amendment,   Prospectus  or   supplement,   as
      applicable,  as proposed to be filed,  contains an untrue  statement  of a
      material  fact or omit to state any  material  fact  required to be stated
      therein or necessary to make the  statements  therein,  not  misleading or
      fails to comply with the applicable  requirements  of the Securities  Act.
      Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  the Company shall not be required to take
      any actions  under this Section  6(c)(v)  that are not, in the  reasonable
      opinion of counsel for the Company, in compliance with applicable law;

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

            (vii) make available,  at reasonable  times,  for inspection by each
      Holder named in any applicable  Registration Statement and any attorney or
      accountant  retained by such  Holder,  all  financial  and other  records,
      pertinent corporate documents of the Company and the Guarantors reasonably
      requested  by such  Person  and cause the  Company's  and the  Guarantors'
      officers,  directors  and employees to supply all  information  reasonably
      requested by any such Holder,  attorney or accountant  in connection  with
      such  Registration  Statement  or  any  post-effective  amendment  thereto
      subsequent to the filing thereof and prior to its effectiveness; provided,
      however, that any information that is designated in writing by the Company
      or the  Guarantors  as  confidential  at the  time  of  delivery  of  such
      information shall be kept confidential by the Holders or any such attorney
      or accountant,  unless such  disclosure is made in connection with a court
      proceeding or required by law;

            (viii) in the case of a Shelf Registration  Statement,  if requested
      by any Holders named in such  Registration  Statement in  connection  with
      such exchange or sale,


                                       12
<PAGE>

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

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

            (x) in the case of a Shelf  Registration  Statement,  upon  request,
      furnish  to each  Holder  named  in any  such  Registration  Statement  in
      connection with such exchange or sale,  without charge,  at least one copy
      of the Shelf Registration  Statement,  as first filed with the Commission,
      and of each  amendment  thereto,  without all  documents  incorporated  by
      reference therein and all exhibits thereto, unless requested;

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

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


                                       13

                        (3) a  customary  comfort  letter,  dated  the  date  of
                  effectiveness  of the Shelf  Registration  Statement  from the

                  covering  matters of the type  customarily  covered in comfort
                  letters  to  underwriters  in  connection  with   underwritten
                  offerings; and

                  (B) deliver such other  documents and  certificates  as may be

      securities or Blue Sky laws of such  jurisdictions  as the selling Holders
      may reasonably  request and do any and all other acts or things  necessary
      or  advisable  to enable  the  disposition  in such  jurisdictions  of the

      that would subject it to the service of process in suits or to taxation in
      any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject;

            (xiv) in connection with any sale of Transfer Restricted  Securities
      that will result in such  securities no longer being  Transfer  Restricted

            (xv) use their respective  commercially  reasonable efforts to cause
      the  disposition  of the  Transfer  Restricted  Securities  covered by the
      Registration  Statement  to be  registered  with or approved by such other
      governmental  agencies or  authorities  as may be  necessary to enable the
      seller or sellers  thereof to consummate the  disposition of such Transfer
      Restricted  Securities,  but in no event for longer than 365 days from the
      effective  date of the  Registration  Statement,  subject  to the  proviso
      contained in clause (xii) above;

            (xvi) provide a CUSIP number for all Transfer Restricted  Securities

      12 month period  beginning  after the effective  date of the  Registration
      Statement  (as such term is defined in paragraph (c) of Rule 158 under the
      Securities Act); and

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

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


                                       15
<PAGE>

period from and including the date of delivery of the  Suspension  Notice to the
Recommencement Date.

SECTION 7. REGISTRATION EXPENSES

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

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

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

SECTION 8. INDEMNIFICATION

      (a) The Company  and the  Guarantors  agree,  jointly  and  severally,  to
indemnify  and hold  harmless  each  Holder,  its  directors,  officers and each
Person,  if any, who controls  such Holder  (within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act),  from and against any and
all losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities,  judgments and expenses  (including
without  limitation,  any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
in connection with  investigating or defending any matter,  including any action
that  could  give  rise to any such  losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  or
judgments)  to which they or any of them may become  subject  under the Act, the
Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
judgments  and  expenses are caused by any untrue  statement  or alleged  untrue
statement  of  a  material  fact  contained  in  any   Registration   Statement,
preliminary


                                       16
<PAGE>

prospectus or Prospectus  (or any amendment or supplement  thereto)  provided by
the Company to any Holder or any  prospective  purchaser  of  Exchange  Notes or
registered  Senior  Subordinated  Notes,  or caused by any  omission  or alleged
omission  to state  therein a material  fact  required  to be stated  therein or
necessary to make the statements  therein,  in light of the circumstances  under
which they were made, not  misleading,  except  insofar as such losses,  claims,
damages,  liabilities or judgments are caused by an untrue statement or omission
or alleged untrue statement or omission that is based upon information  relating
to any of the Holders furnished in writing to the Company by any of the Holders.

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

      (c) In case any action shall be commenced  involving any Person in respect
of  which  indemnity  may be  sought  pursuant  to  Section  8(a) or  8(b)  (the
"Indemnified  Party"),  the  Indemnified  Party shall promptly notify the Person
against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "Indemnifying Person") in writing
and the Indemnifying Person shall assume and control the defense of such action,
including the employment of counsel  reasonably  satisfactory to the Indemnified
Party and the  payment of all fees and  expenses  of such  counsel,  as incurred
(except  that in the case of any  action in respect  of which  indemnity  may be
sought  pursuant to both  Sections 8(a) and 8(b), a Holder shall not be required
to assume the defense of such  action  pursuant to this  Section  8(c),  but may
employ separate counsel and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel,  except as provided below,  shall be at the expense of
the  Holder).  Any  Indemnified  Party  shall have the right to employ  separate
counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof,  but the fees
and expenses of such counsel  shall be at the expense of the  Indemnified  Party
unless  (i)  the  employment  of  such  counsel  shall  have  been  specifically
authorized in writing by the Indemnifying  Person,  (ii) the Indemnifying Person
shall  have  failed to  assume  the  defense  of such  action or employ  counsel
reasonably  satisfactory to the Indemnified  Party or (iii) the named parties to
any such action  (including any impleaded  parties) include both the Indemnified
Party and the  Indemnifying  Person,  and the Indemnified  Party shall have been
advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal  defenses  available
to it  which  are  different  from  or  additional  to  those  available  to the
Indemnifying  Person (in which case the  Indemnifying  Person shall not have the
right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified  Party).
In any such case, the Indemnifying  Person shall not, in connection with any one
action or  separate  but  substantially  similar or related  actions in the same
jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or


                                       17
<PAGE>

circumstances,  be liable for the fees and  expenses  of more than one  separate
firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties
and all such fees and expenses  shall be reimbursed  as they are incurred.  Such
firm shall be designated in writing by a majority of the Holders, in the case of
the  parties  indemnified  pursuant  to Section  8(a),  and by the  Company  and
Guarantors,  in the case of parties  indemnified  pursuant to Section 8(b).  The
indemnifying  party shall indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party from
and against any and all losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities and judgments by
reason of any settlement of any action (i) effected with its written  consent or
(ii) effected without its written consent if (A) such settlement is entered into
more than 60 days after receipt by the indemnifying  party of a request from the
indemnified party for reimbursement for the fees and expenses of counsel (in any
case where such fees and expenses are at the expense of the indemnifying party),
(B) the  indemnifying  party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified  party in
accordance with such request or disputed in good faith the  indemnified  party's
entitlement to such reimbursement prior to the date of such settlement,  and (C)
such indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying  party at least 30 days
prior notice of its intention to settle.  No indemnifying  party shall,  without
the prior written  consent of the  indemnified  party,  effect any settlement or
compromise  of, or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any pending
or threatened  action in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have
been a party and  indemnity  or  contribution  may be or could have been  sought
hereunder  by the  Indemnified  Party,  unless such  settlement,  compromise  or
judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all
liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not
include a statement as to or an admission of fault,  culpability or a failure to
act, by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party.

      (d) To the extent that the indemnification  provided for in this Section 8
is  unavailable  to an  Indemnified  Party in  respect  of any  losses,  claims,
damages,  liabilities or judgments  referred to therein,  then each Indemnifying
Person, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified  Party, shall contribute to the
amount  paid or payable by such  Indemnified  Party as a result of such  losses,
claims,  damages,  liabilities  or  judgments  (i)  in  such  proportion  as  is
appropriate  to reflect the  relative  benefits  received by the Company and the
Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, from their sale
of Transfer  Restricted  Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause
8(d)(i)  above is not  permitted by  applicable  law, in such  proportion  as is
appropriate  to reflect  not only the  relative  benefits  referred to in clause
8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors,  on
the one hand,  and of the Holder,  on the other  hand,  in  connection  with the
statements  or  omissions  which  resulted  in  such  losses,  claims,  damages,
liabilities   or   judgments,   as  well  as  any   other   relevant   equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one
hand, and of the Holder, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or the  omission or alleged  omission to state a material  fact  relates to
information  supplied by the Company or such Guarantors,  on the one hand, or by
the Holder,  on the other hand,  and the parties'  relative  intent,  knowledge,
access to  information  and  opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission.  The  amount  paid or  payable  by a party as a result of the  losses,
claims, damages,  liabilities and judgments referred to above shall be deemed to
include, subject to the limitations set forth in the second paragraph of Section
8(a) above,  any  outside  legal  counsel or other fees or  expenses  reasonably
incurred by such party in connection with  investigating or defending any action
or claim.


                                       18
<PAGE>

      The  Company,  the  Guarantors  and each Holder agree that it would not be
just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined
by pro rata allocation  (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such
purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The
amount  paid or  payable  by an  Indemnified  Party as a result  of the  losses,
claims,  damages,  liabilities  or  judgments  referred  to in  the  immediately
preceding  paragraph shall be deemed to include,  subject to the limitations set
forth above, any outside legal counsel or other expenses  reasonably incurred by
such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any matter,
including any action that could have given rise to such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or judgments.  Notwithstanding  the provisions of this Section 8, no
Holder,  its  directors,  its officers or any Person,  if any, who controls such
Holder shall be required to contribute,  in the aggregate,  any amount in excess
of the amount by which the total  received by such  Holder  with  respect to the
sale of Transfer  Restricted  Securities  pursuant to a  Registration  Statement
exceeds  (i) the  amount  paid by  such  Holder  for  such  Transfer  Restricted
Securities  and (ii) the amount of any damages  which such Holder has  otherwise
been  required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged  untrue  statement  or
omission or alleged omission.  No person guilty of fraudulent  misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution   from  any  person   who  was  not   guilty  of  such   fraudulent
misrepresentation.  The  Holders'  obligations  to  contribute  pursuant to this
Section 8(d) are several in proportion  to the  respective  principal  amount of
Transfer Restricted Securities held by each Holder hereunder and not joint.

SECTION 9. RULE 144A AND RULE 144

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

SECTION 10. SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS

      The  Holders  of  Transfer  Restricted  Securities  covered  by the  Shelf
Registration  Statement  who desire to do so may sell such  Transfer  Restricted
Securities in an underwritten  offering. In any such underwritten  offering, the
investment  banker(s)  and managing  underwriter(s)  that will  administer  such
offering  will be selected by the Holders of a majority in  aggregate  principal
amount  of  the  Transfer  Restricted  Securities  included  in  such  offering;
provided,  however,  that such investment banker(s) and managing  underwriter(s)
must be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.


                                       19

SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS

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

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

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

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

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


                                       20
<PAGE>

Restricted Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement exceeds (i) the
amount paid by such Holder for such Transfer Restricted  Securities and (ii) the
amount of any damages that such Holder,  its  directors,  officers or any Person
who controls  such Holder has  otherwise  been required to pay by reason of such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

      (e)  Notices.  All  notices  and  other  communications  provided  for  or
permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery,  first-class mail
(registered or certified,  return receipt requested),  telex, telecopier, or air
courier guaranteeing overnight delivery:

Holders; provided, that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit any assignment,
transfer or other disposition of Transfer Restricted  Securities in violation of
