         income actually earned during such period in respect of cash or
         Temporary Cash Investments used to repay, repurchase, defease or
         otherwise discharge such Indebtedness;

                  (3) if since the beginning of such period the Company or any

         amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly attributable

         acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction
         requiring a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes all or
         substantially all of a line of business or an operating unit of a
         business, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period
         shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including
         the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or
         acquisition occurred on the first day of such period; and

                  (5) if since the beginning of such period any Person (that
         subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into
         the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such
         period) shall have made any Asset Disposition, any Investment or
         acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant
         to clause (3) or (4) above if made by the Company or a Restricted
         Subsidiary during such period, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense
         for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect
         thereto in substantially the manner described in clause (3) or (4)
         above, as the case may be, as if such Asset Disposition, Investment or
         acquisition occurred on the first day of such period.

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to an
acquisition of assets, the amount of income or earnings relating thereto and the
amount of Consolidated Interest Expense associated with any Indebtedness
Incurred in connection therewith, the pro forma calculations shall be determined
in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting Officer of the Company.

associated expenses) for such period resulting from the acquisition or other
Investment

which states in detail (i) the amount of such adjustment or adjustments and (ii)
that such adjustment or adjustments are based on the reasonable good faith
beliefs of the Officers executing such Officers' Certificate at the time of such
execution. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being
given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as
if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate
for the entire period (taking into account any Interest Rate Agreement
applicable to such Indebtedness if such Interest Rate Agreement has a remaining
term in excess of 12 months or, if less, a remaining term equal to the remaining
term of the Indebtedness).

         Sale/Leaseback Transaction;

         Preferred Stock (expressed as a decimal) for such period (as estimated
         by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company in good faith);

         be deemed to be subordinate or junior to any other Secured Indebtedness

                                   ARTICLE 2

                                 The Securities

                  SECTION 2.01. Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the
Initial Securities, the Private Exchange Securities and the Exchange Securities
are set forth in the Rule 144A/Regulation S Appendix attached hereto (the
"Appendix") which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made part of this
Indenture. The Initial Securities and the Trustee's certificate of
authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 to the Appendix
which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The
Exchange Securities, the Private Exchange Securities and the Trustee's
certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A,
which is hereby incorporated in and expressly

<PAGE>

                                                                              44

made a part of this Indenture. The Securities may have notations, legends or
endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the
Issuers are subject, if any, or depository procedure or usage (provided that any
such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuers).
Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the
Securities set forth in the Appendix and Exhibit A are part of the terms of this
Indenture.

                  SECTION 2.02. Execution and Authentication. Two Officers of
each Issuer, or an Officer of each Issuer and an Assistant Secretary of each
Issuer, shall sign the Securities for each Issuer by manual or facsimile
signature. The Issuers' seal shall be reproduced on the Securities and may be in
facsimile form.

                  If an Officer of an Issuer or Assistant Secretary of an Issuer
whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the
Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

                  A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of
the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security.
The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been
authenticated under this Indenture.

                  Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

                  On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
US$210 million of 10 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 and, at any time
and from time to time thereafter, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount specified in such
order, in each case upon a written order of the Issuers signed, for each Issuer,
by two Officers of such Issuer or by an Officer of such Issuer and either an
Assistant Treasurer or an Assistant Secretary of such Issuer. Such order shall
specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated and the date on which
the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated and, in the case of an
issuance of Additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 after the Issue Date,
shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with Section 4.03.

<PAGE>

                                                                              45

                  The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably
acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities. Unless limited by the
terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities
whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to
authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An
authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent
for service of notices and demands.

                  SECTION 2.03. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Issuers shall
maintain or designate an office or agency where Securities may be presented for
registration of transfer or for exchange (the "Registrar") and an office or
agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the "Paying Agent"). The
Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and
exchange. The Issuers may have one or more co-registrars and one or more
additional paying agents. The term "Paying Agent" includes any additional paying
agent.

                  The Issuers shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement
with any Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture,
which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. The agreement shall implement the
provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuers shall notify
the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuers fail to
maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be
entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The
Issuers, the Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary may act as Paying Agent,
Registrar, co-registrar or transfer agent.

                  The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee as Registrar and
Paying Agent in connection with the Securities.

                  SECTION 2.04. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. No later
than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on each due date of the principal and
interest on any Security, the Issuers shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum
sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due. The Issuers
shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing
that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of

<PAGE>

                                                                              46

Securityholders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the
payment of principal of or interest on the Securities and shall notify the
Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment. If an Issuer,
the Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall
segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust
fund. The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held
by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent.
Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent shall have no further
liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

                  SECTION 2.05. Securityholder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve
in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available
to it of the names and addresses of Securityholders. If the Trustee is not the
Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish or cause the Registrar to furnish to the
Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each interest payment
date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in
such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names
and addresses of Securityholders.

                  SECTION 2.06. Transfer and Exchange. The Securities shall be
issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a
Security for registration of transfer. When a Security is presented to the
Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar
shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture
and Section 8-401(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met. When Securities are
presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for
an equal principal amount of Securities of other denominations, the Registrar
shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange or
redemption of the Securities, but the Issuers may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in
connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or other similar
governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Section 2.09, 3.06, 4.06,
4.09, 4.10, 4.11 or 9.05). The Registrar need not register the transfer of or
exchange any Securities

<PAGE>

                                                                              47

selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be redeemed in
part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any Securities for a
period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be redeemed or 15 days
before an interest payment date.

                  SECTION 2.07. Replacement Securities. If a mutilated Security
is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the
Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuers shall issue
and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the requirements of
Section 8-405(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder satisfies
any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or
the Issuers, such Holder shall furnish an affidavit of lost certificate and
indemnity bond or other indemnity sufficient in the judgment of the Issuers and
the Trustee to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar
and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is
replaced. The Issuers and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses
in replacing a Security, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, and
for any tax imposed in replacing such Securities.

                  Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the
Issuers.

                  SECTION 2.08. Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding
at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those
canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancelation and those described in
this Section as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding
because an Issuer or an Affiliate of an Issuer holds the Security.

                  If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases
to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuers receive proof satisfactory
to them that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser.

                  If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in
accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money
sufficient to pay all principal

<PAGE>

                                                                              48

and interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities (or portions
thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is
not prohibited from paying such money to the Securityholders on that date
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such
Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them
ceases to accrue.

                  SECTION 2.09. Temporary Securities. Until definitive
Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee shall
authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially
in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuers
consider appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the
Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities
and deliver them in exchange for temporary Securities.

                  SECTION 2.10. Cancelation. The Issuers at any time may deliver
Securities to the Trustee for cancelation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent
shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration
of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall dispose of
all canceled Securities in accordance with its customary procedures. The Issuers
may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or
delivered to the Trustee for cancelation.

                  SECTION 2.11. Defaulted Interest. If the Issuers default in a
payment of interest on the Securities, the Issuers shall pay defaulted interest
at the rate provided for in the Securities (plus interest on such defaulted
interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Issuers may pay the
defaulted interest to the persons who are Securityholders on a subsequent
special record date. The Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special
record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and
shall promptly mail to each Securityholder a notice that states the special
record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.

                  SECTION 2.12. CUSIP, ISIN and Common Code Numbers. The Issuers
in issuing the Securities may use

                                                                              49

"CUSIP", "ISIN" and "Common Code" numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so,
the Trustee shall use "CUSIP", "ISIN" and "Common Code" numbers in notices of
redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that no
representation is hereby deemed to be made as to the correctness of such numbers
either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a
redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected
by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

                  SECTION 2.13. Issuance of Additional Securities. The Issuers
shall be entitled, subject to the Company's compliance with Section 4.03, to
issue Additional Securities under this Indenture which shall have identical
terms as the Initial Securities issued on the Issue Date, other than with
respect to the date of issuance, the date from which interest will accrue
thereon, the issue price, the amount of interest payable upon a registration
default as provided under a registration rights agreement related thereto (and
if such Additional Securities shall be issued in the form of Exchange
Securities, other than with respect to transfer restrictions). The Initial
Securities issued on the Issue Date, any Additional Securities and all Exchange
Securities or Private Exchange Securities issued in exchange therefor shall be
treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture.

                  With respect to any Additional Securities, the Issuer, shall
set forth in a resolution of the Board of Directors and an Officers' Certificate
of the Issuers, a copy of each which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the
following information:

                  (1) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional
         Securities to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this
         Indenture;

                  (2) the issue price, the issue date, the date from which
         interest will accrue thereon and the CUSIP, ISIN and Common Code
         numbers of such Additional Securities; provided, however, that no
         Additional Securities may be issued at a price that would cause such
         Additional Securities to have "original issue

<PAGE>

                                                                              50

         discount" within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code; and

                  (3) whether such Additional Securities shall be Transfer
         Restricted Securities and issued in the form of Initial Securities as
         set forth in the Appendix to this Indenture or shall be issued in the
         form of Exchange Securities as set forth in Exhibit A.

                                   ARTICLE 3

                                   Redemption

                  SECTION 3.01. Notices to Trustee. If the Issuers or, in the
case of a redemption pursuant to paragraph 6 of the Securities, the Issuers, the
Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as applicable, elect to redeem Securities
pursuant to paragraph 5 or 6 of the Securities, they shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the redemption date, the principal amount of Securities to be
redeemed and the paragraph of the Securities pursuant to which the redemption
will occur.

                  The Issuers or, in the case of a redemption pursuant to
paragraph 6 of the Securities, the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantors, as applicable, shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in
this Section at least 35 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date
unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. Such notice shall be
accompanied by an Officers' Certificate of Issuer, or, in the case of a
redemption pursuant to paragraph 6 of the Securities, the Issuers, the Company
or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as applicable, and an Opinion of Counsel from the
Issuers or, in the case of a redemption pursuant to paragraph 6 of the
Securities, the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as
applicable, to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions
herein.

                  SECTION 3.02. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed. If fewer
than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the
Securities to be redeemed on a pro rata basis, by lot or by a method that
complies with applicable legal and securities exchange requirements, if any, and
that the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate.
The

                                                                              51

Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Securities not previously
called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the
principal of Securities that have denominations larger than US$1,000. Securities
and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts of
US$1,000 or a whole multiple of US$1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that
apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities
called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Issuers promptly of the
Securities or portions of Securities to be redeemed.

                  SECTION 3.03. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not
more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Securities, the Issuers shall
mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder of Securities to
be redeemed at such Holder's registered address.

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

                  (1) the redemption date;

                  (2) the redemption price;

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

                  (4) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered
         to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

                  (5) if fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be
         redeemed, the identification and principal amounts of the particular
         Securities to be redeemed;

                  (6) that, unless the Issuers or, in the case of a redemption
         pursuant to paragraph 6 of the Securities, the Issuers, the Company or
         the Subsidiary Guarantors, as applicable, default in making such
         redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such
         payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Securities
         (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and
         after the redemption date; and

<PAGE>

                                                                              52

                  (7) that no representation is made as to the correctness or
         accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code numbers, if any, listed in
         such notice or printed on the Securities.

                  At the Issuers' request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Issuers' name and at the Issuers' expense. In such event, the
Issuers shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section.

                  SECTION 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of
redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on
the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon
surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities called for redemption shall be
paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest to the
redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date).
Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not
affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

                  SECTION 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. No later than 10:00
a.m. New York City time on the redemption date, the Issuers or, in the case of a
redemption pursuant to paragraph 6 of the Securities, the Issuers, the Company
or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as applicable, shall deposit with the Paying Agent
(or, if an Issuer is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money
sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Securities
to be redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions of Securities
called for redemption which have been delivered by the Issuers to the Trustee
for cancelation. If the Issuers or, in the case of a redemption pursuant to
paragraph 6 of the Securities, the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantors, as applicable, comply with this Section 3.05, then, unless the
payment of the redemption price is prohibited by the terms of this Indenture,
interest on the Securities to be redeemed will cease to accrue on and after the
redemption date, whether or not such Securities are presented for payment.

                  SECTION 3.06. Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a
Security that is redeemed in part, the

                                                                              53

Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the
Issuers' expense) a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed
portion of the Security surrendered.

                                   ARTICLE 4

                                   Covenants

                  SECTION 4.01. Payment of Securities. The Issuers shall
promptly pay the principal of and interest on the Securities on the dates and in
the manner provided in the Securities and in this Indenture. Principal and
interest shall be considered paid on the date due if no later than 10:00 a.m.
New York City time on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in
accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal and
interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is
not prohibited from paying such money to the Securityholders on that date

                  SECTION 4.02. SEC Reports; Meetings with Holders of
Securities. The Company shall furnish to the Securityholders and the Trustee (1)
all annual and quarterly financial information that would be required to be
contained in a filing with the SEC on Form 20-F and 10-Q if the Company were
required to file such Forms, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and, with respect to the
annual financial information, a report thereon by the Company's certified
independent accountants; provided, however, if such financial information that
would be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Form 20-F is not
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States, there shall be a reconciliation to such principles (including a
determination of EBITDA on such basis) included in such annual information; and

Company were required to file such reports (other than such reports that are
required as a result of Regulation S sales of equity securities), all such
information to be furnished at the time such filings would have been required
for a U.S. corporation; provided, however, that such quarterly financial
information shall be furnished within 45 days after the end of each of the first
three quarters. In addition, whether or not required by the rules and
regulations of the SEC, the Company shall file a copy of all such information
and reports with the SEC for public availability (unless the SEC will not accept
such filing). Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, if any Subsidiary
Guarantor's financial statements would be required to be included in the
financial statements filed or delivered pursuant to this Section 4.02 if the
Issuers were subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuers
shall not be required to file or furnish such financial statements.

                  At any time that any of the Company's Subsidiaries are
Unrestricted Subsidiaries and such Unrestricted Subsidiaries, considered in the
aggregate, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Company as of the
date of such report, then the quarterly and annual financial information
required by the preceding paragraph shall include a reasonably detailed
presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes
thereto, and in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations", of the financial condition and results of operations of
the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial
condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the
Company.

                  In addition, the Company and the Issuers shall furnish to the
Securityholders and to prospective investors, upon the requests of such
Securityholders, any information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule
144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act so long as the Securities are not freely
transferable under the Securities Act. The Company and the Issuers also shall
comply with the other provisions of TIA Section 314(a).

                  Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the
Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such
shall not constitute

information contained therein, including the Issuers' compliance with any of its
covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely
exclusively on Officers' Certificates of the Company).

                  The Company shall, within 15 days after furnishing the annual
or quarterly financial information described in this Section 4.02, conduct a
meeting with Holders of Securities, by means of conference telephone or other
communications equipment through which all persons participating in the meeting
can hear each other, which meeting shall be attended by the Chief Executive
Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company, or both (or such other
Officers of the Company as are acting in such capacities at the time), and shall
be held at such time as is reasonably agreed upon by the Company and the Holders
of Securities. At each meeting, the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial
Officer of the Company, or both (or such other Officers of the Company as are
acting in such capacities at the time), shall discuss the financial performance
of the Company during the fiscal year or quarter, as applicable, as well as the
general state of the business and operations of the Company. The Company shall
provide the Holders of Securities and the trustee with notice of each meeting
(which notice may be given by press release or any other reasonable means of
public communication) no less than 5 days prior to such meeting, which notice
shall include the date and time of the meeting and the conference telephone or
other details for the meeting.

                  SECTION 4.03. Limitation on Indebtedness. (a) The Company
shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur, directly or
indirectly, any Indebtedness; provided, however, that the Company, the Issuers
and the other Restricted Subsidiaries shall be entitled to Incur Indebtedness
(other than Subordinated Obligations) if, on the date of such Incurrence and
after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, no Default has occurred and is
continuing and the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would be less than (x) 4.25 to
1.00 if such Indebtedness is incurred on or prior to February 15, 2005, (y) 4.00
to 1.00 if such Indebtedness is Incurred after February 15, 2005 and on or prior

         subsequent transfer of such Indebtedness (other than to the Company or
         a Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute
         the Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the obligor thereon and (B) if
         the Company is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the holder is a
         Person other than an Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, such
         Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in
         cash of all obligations with respect to the Securities;

Refinance any Subordinated Obligations of the Issuers, the Company or any
Subsidiary Guarantor unless such Indebtedness shall be subordinated to the
Securities, the Company Guaranty or the applicable Subsidiary Guaranty, as the
case may be, to at least the same extent as such Subordinated Obligations.

                  (d)      For purposes of determining compliance with this
covenant:

                  (1) any Indebtedness remaining outstanding under the Credit
         Agreement after the application of the net proceeds from the sale of
         the Securities will be treated as Incurred on the Issue Date under
         clauses (1) and (2) of Section 4.03(b);

                  (2) in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion

         shall classify such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) at
         the time of Incurrence and shall only be required to include the amount
         and type of such Indebtedness in one of the above clauses; and

                  (3) the Company shall be entitled to (i) divide and classify
         an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness
         described above and (ii) in the case of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant
         to clause (1), (2), (6), (7), (13) or (15) of Section 4.03(b), from

         to be included in one of clauses (1), (2), (6), (7), (13) or (15) of
         Section 4.03(b) and must qualify as such Indebtedness at the time of
         the reclassification.

                  (e)      Notwithstanding Sections 4.03(a) and 4.03(b), neither
the Company, an Issuer, nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall Incur (1) any

respect to any Senior Indebtedness of the Company, an Issuer or such Subsidiary
Guarantor, as applicable, unless such Indebtedness is Senior Subordinated
Indebtedness or is expressly subordinated in right of payment to Senior
Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary

Indebtedness of such Person unless contemporaneously therewith such Person makes
effective provision to secure the Company Guaranty, the Securities or the
relevant Subsidiary Guaranty, as applicable, equally and ratably with such
Secured Indebtedness for so long as such Secured Indebtedness is secured by a
Lien.

                  (f)      For purposes of determining compliance with any
restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in Australian or U.S.
dollars, where the Indebtedness Incurred is denominated in a different currency,
the amount of such Indebtedness shall be the Australian Dollar Equivalent or
U.S. Dollar Equivalent, as applicable, determined on the date of the Incurrence
of such Indebtedness; provided, however, that if any such Indebtedness
denominated in a different currency is subject to a Currency Agreement with
respect to Australian dollars or U.S. dollars, as applicable, covering all
principal, premium, if any, and interest payable on such Indebtedness, the
amount of such Indebtedness expressed in Australian or U.S. dollars, as
applicable, shall be as provided in such Currency Agreement. The principal
amount of any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred in the same currency as the
Indebtedness being Refinanced shall be the Australian Dollar Equivalent or U.S.
Dollar Equivalent, as applicable, of the Indebtedness Refinanced, except to the
extent that (1) such Australian Dollar Equivalent or U.S. Dollar Equivalent, as
applicable, was determined based on a Currency Agreement, in which case the
Refinancing Indebtedness shall be determined in accordance with the preceding
sentence, and (2) the principal amount of the Refinancing Indebtedness exceeds
the principal amount of the Indebtedness being Refinanced, in which case the
Australian Dollar Equivalent or U.S. Dollar Equivalent, as applicable, of such
excess shall be determined on the date such Refinancing Indebtedness is
Incurred.

                  (g)      Notwithstanding Sections 4.03(a) or 4.03(b), the
Issuers shall not Incur any Indebtedness unless such Indebtedness is fully and
unconditionally Guaranteed by the Company.

                  SECTION 4.04. Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) The
Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or
indirectly, to make a

         of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a) without a Leverage Default
         having occurred; or

                  (3) the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all

                  Consolidated Net Income shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such
                  deficit); plus

                           (B) 100% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received
                  by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from the

         Company's ability to make (or to provide funds to the Issuers to make)
         principal or interest payments on the Securities and (y) the
         encumbrance or restriction is not materially more disadvantageous to

         (4) or contained in any amendment to an agreement referred to in clause
         (1) or (3) of this Section 4.05 or this clause (4); provided, however,

         agreement or consists of reasonable and customary provisions, as
         determined in good faith by the Company, providing for escrow, net

         of applicable law;

         consideration at least equal to the fair market value (including as to
         the value of all non-cash consideration), as determined in good faith
         by the Board of Directors of the Company, of the shares and assets
         subject to such Asset Disposition;

                  (2) except in the case of an Asset Swap, at least 75% of the

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.06,
the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to apply any
Net Available Cash in accordance with this covenant except to the extent that
the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions which is not
applied in accordance with this covenant exceeds US$25.0 million. Pending

Cash shall be invested in Temporary Cash Investments or applied to temporarily
reduce revolving credit indebtedness.

                  For the purposes of this Section 4.06, the following are
deemed to be cash or Temporary Cash Investments:

                  (1) the assumption of Indebtedness or trade payables of the
         Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and the release of the Company or
         such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on such Indebtedness or
         trade payables in connection with such Asset Disposition; and

         into cash or Temporary Cash Investments.

                  (b)      In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires
the Company to make an offer to purchase Securities (and other Senior
Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuers or the Company) pursuant to Section
4.06(a)(3)(C), the Company shall purchase Securities tendered pursuant to an
offer by the Company for the Securities (and such other Senior Subordinated
Indebtedness) (the "Offer") at a purchase price of 100% of their principal
amount (or, in the event such other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness was issued
with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof)
without premium, plus accrued but unpaid interest (or, in respect of such other
Senior Subordinated Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided
for by the terms of such Senior Subordinated Indebtedness) in accordance with
the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth
in

Section 4.06(c). If the aggregate purchase price of the securities tendered
exceeds the Net Available Cash allotted to their purchase, the Company shall
select the securities to be purchased on a pro rata basis but in round
denominations, which in the case of the Securities shall be denominations of
US$1,000 principal amount or multiples thereof. The Company shall not be
required to make such an offer to purchase Securities (and other Senior
Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company) pursuant to this covenant until the
45th day after the first day of a calendar month in which the Net Available Cash
available therefor totals at least US$10.0 million (with lesser amounts being
carried forward for purposes of determining whether such an offer is required
with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition,
except as provided in the next sentence). Upon completion of such an offer to
purchase, Net Available Cash shall be deemed to be reduced by the aggregate
amount of such offer.

                  (c)      (1) Promptly, and in any event within 10 days after
the Company becomes obligated to make an Offer, the Company shall deliver to the
Trustee and send, by first-class mail to each Holder, a written notice stating
that the Holder may elect to have his Securities purchased by the Company either
in whole or in part (subject to prorating as described in Section 4.06(b) in the
event the Offer is oversubscribed) in integral multiples of US$1,000 of
principal amount, at the applicable purchase price. The notice shall specify a
purchase date not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days after the date of such
notice (the "Purchase Date") and shall contain such information concerning the
business of the Company which the Company in good faith believes will enable
such Holders to make an informed decision and all instructions and materials
necessary to tender Securities pursuant to the Offer, together with the
information contained in clause (3).

                  (2) Not later than the date upon which written notice of an
         Offer is delivered to the Trustee as provided below, the Company shall
         deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate of the Company as to
         (A) the amount of the Offer (the "Offer Amount"), including information
         as to any other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness included in the Offer,
         (B) the allocation of the Net Available Cash from the

         Asset Dispositions pursuant to which such Offer is being made and (C)
         the compliance of such allocation with the provisions of Section
         4.06(a) and (b). On such date, the Company shall also irrevocably
         deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or if the Issuers are
         acting as their own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust) in
         Temporary Cash Investments, maturing on the last day prior to the
         Purchase Date or on the Purchase Date if funds are immediately
         available by open of business, an amount equal to the Offer Amount to
         be held for payment in accordance with the provisions of this Section
         4.06. If the Offer includes other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of
         the Company, the deposit described in the preceding sentence may be
         made with any other paying agent pursuant to arrangements satisfactory
         to the Trustee. Upon the expiration of the period for which the Offer
         remains open (the "Offer Period"), the Company shall deliver to the
         Trustee for cancelation the Securities or portions thereof which have
         been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Company. The
         Trustee shall, on the Purchase Date, mail or deliver payment (or cause
         the delivery of payment) to each tendering Holder in the amount of the
         purchase price. In the event that the aggregate purchase price of the
         Securities delivered by the Company to the Trustee is less than the
         Offer Amount applicable to the Securities, the Trustee shall deliver
         the excess to the Company immediately after the expiration of the Offer
         Period for application in accordance with this Section 4.06.

                  (3) Holders electing to have a Security purchased shall be
         required to surrender the Security, with an appropriate form duly
         completed, to the Company at the address specified in the notice at
         least three Business Days prior to the Purchase Date. Holders shall be
         entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Company
         receives not later than one Business Day prior to the Purchase Date, a
         facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder,
         the principal amount of the Security which was delivered for purchase
         by the Holder and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his
         election to have such Security purchased. Holders whose Securities are
         purchased only in part shall be issued new Securities

         equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities
         surrendered.

                  (4) At the time the Company delivers Securities to the Trustee
         which are to be accepted for purchase, the Company shall also deliver
         an Officers' Certificate of the Company stating that such Securities
         are to be accepted by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with
         the terms of this Section 4.06. A Security shall be deemed to have been
         accepted for purchase at the time the Trustee, directly or through an
         agent, mails or delivers payment therefor to the surrendering Holder.

                  (d)      The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable,
with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities
pursuant to this Section 4.06. To the extent that the provisions of any
securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.06,
the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and
shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.06 by
virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into
or permit to exist any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or
exchange of any property, employee compensation arrangements or the rendering of
any service) with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (an
"Affiliate Transaction") unless:

                  (1) the terms of the Affiliate Transaction are no less
         favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that
         could be obtained at the time of the Affiliate Transaction in
         arm's-length dealings with a Person who is not an Affiliate;

                  (2) if such Affiliate Transaction involves an amount in excess
         of US$5.0 million, the terms of the Affiliate Transaction are set forth
         in writing and a majority of the non-employee directors of the Company
         disinterested with respect to such Affiliate

         of US$15.0 million, the Board of Directors of the Company shall also
         have received a written opinion from an Independent Qualified Party to
         the effect that such Affiliate Transaction is fair, from a financial
         standpoint, to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or is not
         less favorable to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries than
         could reasonably be expected to be obtained at the time in an
         arm's-length transaction with a Person who was not an Affiliate.

                  (b)      The provisions of Section 4.07(a) shall not prohibit:

         director or employee of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
         entered into in the ordinary course of business;

                  (5) any transaction with or among Restricted Subsidiaries or
         joint ventures or similar entities which would constitute an Affiliate
         Transaction solely

         in or otherwise controls such Restricted Subsidiary, joint venture or
         similar entity;

                  (6) the issuance or sale of any Capital Stock (other than

provisions of this Section 4.11, the Issuers shall comply with the applicable
securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to breach their
obligations with respect to this Section 4.11 by virtue of their compliance with
applicable securities laws and regulations.

                  SECTION 4.12. Limitation on Issuers. The Issuers shall not own
any material assets or other property (other than Indebtedness owing to the
Issuers by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and Temporary Cash
Investments) or engage in any trade or conduct any business other than treasury,
cash management, hedging and cash pooling activities and activities incidental
thereto. The Issuers shall not Incur any material liabilities or obligations
other than its obligations pursuant to the Securities, this Indenture, the
Credit Agreement and other Indebtedness permitted to be Incurred by the Issuers
under Section 4.03 and liabilities and obligations pursuant to business
activities permitted by this Section 4.12.

                  SECTION 4.13. Future Guarantors. The Company shall cause each
Restricted Subsidiary that Incurs any Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a)
or 4.03(b)(1), (2), (8) (to the extent that such Indebtedness directly or

time, execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guaranty Agreement pursuant to which
such Restricted Subsidiary will Guarantee payment of the Securities on the same
terms and conditions as those set forth in Article 11 (other than Section
11.01); provided, however, that no Restricted Subsidiary will be required to
provide such a Guarantee if (i) such Restricted Subsidiary is not Guaranteeing
any Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or 4.03(b)(1), (2), (8)
(to the extent that such Indebtedness directly or indirectly refinances
Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a)), (12), (15), (16) or (17) and
(ii) in the good faith judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, it is not
reasonably practicable or it is too expensive (having regard to the value of the
assets involved) for such Restricted Subsidiary to Guarantee payment of the
Securities under applicable law; provided further, however, that neither Goodman
Fielder nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide such a
Guarantee on or before the 210th day after the date on which Goodman Fielder or
such Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or if the terms of this covenant
have otherwise been satisfied prior to the lapse of such 210-day period.

                  SECTION 4.14. Additional Amounts. The Issuers, the Company and
the Subsidiary Guarantors shall make all payments under or with respect to the
Securities, the Company Guaranty and the Subsidiary Guaranties, as the case may
be, free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of
any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental
charge of whatever nature (including penalties, interest and other liabilities
related thereto) (hereinafter "Taxes") imposed or levied by or on behalf of (i)
the government of the country in which the Issuers, the Company or the
Subsidiary Guarantors are organized or incorporated or any political subdivision
or any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax, (ii) any
other jurisdiction in which the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantors are otherwise resident for tax purposes, or (iii) any jurisdiction
from or through which payment is made (each such jurisdiction listed in the
foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), a "Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction"), unless
the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors are required to withhold
or deduct Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof.

                                                                              84

                  If so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on
account of Taxes imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from any payment made
under or with respect to the Securities, the Company Guaranty or a Subsidiary
Guaranty, the applicable obligor shall pay such additional amounts ("Additional
Amounts") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by the Holders
(including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be
less than the amount the Holders would have received if such Taxes had not been
withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be so
payable for or on account of:

                  (1) any withholding, deduction, tax, duty, assessment or other
         governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the fact
         that the holder or beneficial owner or any other person ultimately
         entitled to obtain an interest in the Securities:

                           (A) is or was a resident, domiciled in or a national
                  of, or is or was engaged in business or maintained a permanent
                  establishment in, or is or was physically present in, the
                  Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or otherwise has or had some
                  connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction other than
                  the mere ownership of, or receipt of payment under, the
                  Securities;

                           (B) presented Securities for payment in the Relevant
                  Taxing Jurisdiction, unless the Security could not have been
                  presented for payment elsewhere; or

                           (C) presented the Securities more than 30 days after
                  the date on which the payment in respect of the Securities
                  first became due and payable or provided for, whichever is
                  later, except to the extent the holder would have been
                  entitled to the Additional Amounts if it had presented the
                  Securities for payment on any day within the period of 30
                  days;

                  (2) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal
         property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge or any
         withholding or deduction on account of such taxes;

<PAGE>

                                                                              85

                  (3) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge
         which is payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from
         payments of (or in respect of) principal of, or any premium or interest
         on, the Securities;

                  (4) any withholding, deduction, tax, duty, assessment or other
         governmental charge which is imposed or withheld by reason of the
         failure by the holder, beneficial owner or other person ultimately
         entitled to obtain an interest in the Securities to comply with the
         Issuers' request addressed to the holder, beneficial owner or other
         person ultimately entitled to obtain an interest in the Securities, as
         the case may be,

                           (A) to provide information concerning the
                  nationality, residence, identity or address of the holder,
                  beneficial owner or such other person, as the case may be; or

                           (B) to make any declaration or other similar claim or
                  satisfy any information or reporting requirement, which is
                  required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation, protocol
                  or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction
                  as a precondition to exemption from all or part of the
                  withholding, deduction, tax, assessment or other governmental
                  charge; or

                  (5) any combination of items (1), (2), (3) and (4) above.

Furthermore, no Additional Amounts will be paid with respect to any payment of,
or in respect of, the principal of, or any premium or interest on, the
Securities to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or any person other
than the sole beneficial owner of the payment to the extent payment would, under
the laws of the Relevant Taxing Authority, be treated as being derived or
received for tax purposes by a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the
fiduciary or a member of the partnership or a beneficial owner who would not
have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had it been the holder of the
Securities.

                  The Issuers, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will
not be liable to pay Additional Amounts to

any Holder for any deduction or withholding on account of any duties or taxes
where those duties or taxes are imposed or levied by or on behalf of the
Commonwealth of Australia by virtue of the Holder being an associate (as defined
in Section 128F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Australia)) of the
Issuers, the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor or as a result of the Holder
being a party to or participating in a scheme to avoid the duties or taxes,
being a scheme which none of the Issuers, the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor
was either party to nor participated in.

                  Upon request, the Issuers, the Company and the Subsidiary
Guarantors, as applicable, shall provide the Trustee with official receipts or
other documentation satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of the
Taxes with respect to which Additional Amounts are paid.

         Securities;

                  (3) interest; or

                  (4) any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the
         Securities,

such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as
described under this heading to the extent that, in such context, Additional
Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

                  The Issuers shall pay any present or future stamp, court or
documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar
levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, enforcement
or registration of the Securities, this Indenture or any other document or
instrument in relation thereof, or the receipt of any payments with respect to
the Securities, excluding such taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any
jurisdiction outside of (i) Australia and the jurisdiction of incorporation of
any Subsidiary Guarantor, (ii) the jurisdiction of incorporation of any
successor of either

Issuer or the Company, or (iii) any jurisdiction in which a paying agent is
located, and the Issuers agree to indemnify the Holders for any such taxes paid
by such Holders.

                  The obligations described under this Section shall survive any
termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture and shall apply mutatis
mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Issuers, the
Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor is organized or any political subdivision or
taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.

                  SECTION 4.15. Compliance Certificate. The Company shall
deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an
Officers' Certificate of the Company stating that in the course of the
performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Company, they
would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signers know

shall describe the Default, its status and what action the Company and the
Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto. The Issuers and the
Company also shall comply with TIA Section 314(a)(4).

                  SECTION 4.16. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of
the Trustee, the Issuers, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will execute
and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be

                           (A) is for relief against the Company, an Issuer or
                  any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

                           (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company, an Issuer or
                  any Significant Subsidiary or, in the case of the Company or

                                                                              93

                  property, or, in the case of an Issuer, for any substantial
                  part of its property; or

                           (C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the
                  Company, an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary;

         or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order
         or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days;

                  (9) an administrator or controller (as such terms are defined
         in the Corporations Act 2001 of Australia) is appointed to the Company,
         an Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary and is not removed within 60
         days;

                  (10) any final judgment or decree for the payment of money in
         excess of US$10.0 million (to the extent not covered by available
         insurance) or its foreign currency equivalent at the time is entered

         outstanding for a period of 60 consecutive days following the entry of
         such final judgment or decree and is not discharged, waived, vacated or

         or

                  (11) the Company Guaranty or a Subsidiary Guaranty ceases to
         be in full force and effect (other than, in the case of a Subsidiary
         Guaranty, in accordance with the terms of such Subsidiary Guaranty or
         as a result of a change in law) or the Company or any Subsidiary
         Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under the Company
         Guaranty or its Subsidiary Guaranty, as the case may be.

                  The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the
reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary
or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order
of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or
governmental body.

                  The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, United States Code,
Chapter 5, Corporations Act 2001 (Commonwealth of Australia) or any similar
United States Federal or

<PAGE>

                                                                              94

state, Australian or other non-United States law for the relief of debtors. The
term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian,
administrator, controller or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

                  A Default under clauses (4) or (5) is not an Event of Default
until the Company receives written notice from the Trustee or the holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities specifying the
Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified
after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that
it be remedied and state that such notice is a "Notice of Default".

                  The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after
the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers' Certificate
of the Company of any Event of Default under clause (6) or (11) and any event
which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of
Default under clause (4), (5), or (10), its status and what action the Company
is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

                  SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than
an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7), (8) or (9) with respect to the
Issuers or the Company) occurs and is continuing and has not been waived
pursuant to Section 6.04, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders
of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Company
and the Trustee, may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on
all the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such
principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(7), (8) or (9) with respect to the Issuers or
the Company occurs, the principal of and interest on all the Securities shall
ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or
other act on the part of the Trustee or any Securityholders. The Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Trustee may
rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not
conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have
been cured or

<PAGE>

                                                                              95

waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely
because of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default
or impair any right consequent thereto.

                  SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the
payment of principal of or interest on the Securities or to enforce the
performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture.

                  The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not
possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.
A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder in exercising any right
or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is
exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.

                  SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Trustee may
waive an existing Default and its consequences except (i) a Default in the
payment of the principal of or interest on a Security (ii) a Default arising
from the failure to redeem or purchase any Security when required pursuant to
this Indenture or (iii) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section
9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Securityholder affected. When
a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

                  SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Securities may direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may
refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or,
subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to
the rights of other Securityholders or would involve the Trustee in personal
liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed
proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such

<PAGE>

                                                                              96

direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled
to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses
and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

                  SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the right
to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no
Securityholder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the
Securities unless:

                  (1) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice stating
         that an Event of Default is continuing;

                  (2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the
         Securities make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

                  (3) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee reasonable
         security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

                  (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60
         days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or
         indemnity; and

                  (5) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
         Securities do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the
         request within such 60-day period.

                  A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the
rights of another Securityholder or to obtain a preference or priority over
another Securityholder.

                  SECTION 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder
to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Securities held by such
Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Securities, or to
bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective
dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

                  SECTION 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee may recover judgment in its

<PAGE>

                                                                              97

own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuers for the whole
amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the
extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07.

                  SECTION 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee
may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary
or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Securityholders
allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers, its creditors or
its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote
on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other
Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee
and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section
7.07.

                  SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or
property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in
the following order:

                  FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;

                  SECOND: to holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers and,
         if such money or property has been collected from a Securities
         Guarantor, to holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Securities
         Guarantor, in each case to the extent required by Article 10 and 12;

                  THIRD: to Securityholders for amounts due and unpaid on the
         Securities for principal and interest, ratably, without preference or
         priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the
         Securities for principal and interest, respectively; and

                  FOURTH: to the Issuers.

                                                                              98

                  The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any
payment to Securityholders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before
such record date, the Issuers shall mail to each Securityholder and the Trustee
a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

                  SECTION 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its
discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may
assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party
litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a
suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by
Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities.

                  SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuers
and the Company (to the extent they may lawfully do so) shall not at any time
insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or
advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time
hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this
Indenture; and the Issuers and the Company (to the extent that they may lawfully
do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and
shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to
the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law had been enacted.

                                   ARTICLE 7

                                    Trustee

                  SECTION 7.01. Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers
vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in
their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use

<PAGE>

                                                                              99

under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person's own affairs.

                  (b)      Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

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

                  (2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
         conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
         correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or
         opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
         this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and
         opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements
         of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of
         mathematical calculations stated herein).

                  (c)      The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for
its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own wilful
misconduct, except that:

                  (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b)
         of this Section;

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

                  (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
         it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
         received by it pursuant to Section 6.05.

                  (d)      Every provision of this Indenture that in any way
relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this
Section.

                                                                             100

                  (e)      The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any
money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the
Issuers.

                  (f)      Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

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

                  (h)      Every provision of this Indenture relating to the
conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the
TIA.

                  SECTION 7.02. Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may
conclusively rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any
fact or matter stated in the document.

                  (b)      Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it
may require an Officers' Certificate from the Company or the Issuers or an
Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or
omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers' Certificate or Opinion
of Counsel.

                  (c)      The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be
responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due
care.

                  (d)      The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it
takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or
within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Trustee's conduct does
not constitute wilful misconduct or negligence.

                  (e)      The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice
or opinion of counsel with respect to legal

<PAGE>

                                                                             101

matters relating to this Indenture and the Securities shall be full and complete
authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken,
omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the
advice or opinion of such counsel.

                  (f)      Any request or direction of the Issuers mentioned
herein will be sufficiently evidenced by an Issuer Order and any resolution of
the Board will be sufficiently evidenced by a board resolution.

                  (g)      The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise
any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or
direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders
shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the
Trustee against the costs, expenses, and liabilities which might be incurred by
it in compliance with such request or direction.

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

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

                  (j)      The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and
benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be
indemnified, are

<PAGE>

                                                                             102

extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities
hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act
hereunder.

                  (k)      The Trustee may request that the Issuers deliver an
Officers' Certificate of the Issuers, the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor
setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at
such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers'
Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officers'
Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such
certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

                  SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities
and may otherwise deal with the Issuers or their Affiliates with the same rights
it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar
or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must
comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

                  SECTION 7.04. Trustee's Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be
responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of
this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Issuers'
use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any
statement of the Issuers in this Indenture or in any document issued in
connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the
Trustee's certificate of authentication.

                  SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is
continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each
Securityholder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in
the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Security,
the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its
Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in
the interests of Securityholders.

                  SECTION 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. As promptly as
practicable after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of
this Indenture, and in any

<PAGE>

                                                                             103

event prior to July 15 in each year, the Trustee shall mail to each
Securityholder a brief report dated as of May 15 that complies with TIA Section
313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b).

                  A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to
Securityholders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on
which the Securities are listed. The Issuers agree to notify promptly the
Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any
delisting thereof.

                  SECTION 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuers shall
pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services
rendered by it hereunder as the parties shall agree from time to time. The
Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a
trustee of an express trust. The Issuers shall reimburse the Trustee upon
request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it in
connection with the performance of services hereunder, including costs of
collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses
shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuers
and the Company shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Trustee against any
and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys' fees and reasonable
expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and
the performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to
so notify the Company shall not relieve the Issuers or the Company of its
obligations hereunder. The Issuers and the Company shall defend the claim and
the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and
expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuers nor the Company need reimburse any
expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the
Trustee through the Trustee's own wilful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

                  To secure the Issuers' and the Company's payment obligations
in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all
money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee,
other

                                                                             104

than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on
particular Securities. Amounts advanced to the Trustee pursuant to this Section
7.07 shall be deemed property of the Trustee and not of the Company.

                  The Issuers' and the Company's payment obligations pursuant to
this Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation
or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence
of a Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) with respect to the Issuers or
the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration
under the Bankruptcy Law.

                  SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign
at any time by so notifying the Issuers in writing at least 30 days prior to the
date of the proposed resignation. The Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may
appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuers shall remove the Trustee if:

                  (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

                  (2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

                  (3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the
         Trustee or its property; or

                  (4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

                  If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Issuers or by the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do
not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in
the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred
to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuers shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee.

                  A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuers. Thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the
successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and

                                                                             105

duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a
notice of its succession to Securityholders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly
transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to
the lien provided for in Section 7.07.

                  If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days
after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, at the
reasonable expense of the Issuers, or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of
the Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

                  If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any
Securityholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

                  Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to
this Section, the Issuers' and the Company's obligations under Section 7.07
shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

                  SECTION 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee
consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially
all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking
association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any
further act shall be the successor Trustee.

                  In case at the time such successor or successors by merger,
conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created
by this Indenture any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not
delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so
authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have
been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such
Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the
successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the
full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided
that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

                  SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall
at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a). The Trustee shall
have a combined capital and surplus of at least US$50,000,000 as set forth in
its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply
with TIA Section 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from
the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which
other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other
securities of the Issuers are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion
set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met.

                  SECTION 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against
Issuers. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any
creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned
or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated
therein.

                       Discharge of Indenture; Defeasance

                  SECTION 8.01. Discharge of Liability on Securities;
Defeasance. (a) When (1) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee all outstanding
Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07) for
cancelation or (2) all outstanding Securities have become due and payable,
whether at maturity or on a redemption date as a result of the mailing of a
notice of redemption pursuant to Article 3 hereof and the Issuers irrevocably
deposit with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption
all outstanding Securities, including interest thereon to maturity or such
redemption date (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07), and
if in either case the Issuers pay all other sums payable hereunder by the
Issuers or the Company, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 8.01(c),
cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture on demand of the Issuers accompanied by an Officers'
Certificate of the Issuers and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense
of the Issuers.

                  (b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Issuers and the
Company at any time may terminate (1) all their obligations under the Securities
and this Indenture ("legal defeasance option") or (2) their obligations under
Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13
and 4.14 and the operation of Sections 6.01(3)(i), 6.01(4), 6.01(6), 6.01(7),
6.01(8), 6.01(9) and 6.01(10) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(7), (8) and
(9), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries) and the limitations
contained in Section 5.01(a)(3) ("covenant defeasance option"). The Issuers may
exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its
covenant defeasance option.

                  If the Issuers exercise their legal defeasance option, payment
of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with
respect thereto. If the Issuers exercise their covenant defeasance option,
payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default
specified in Sections 6.01(3)(i), 6.01(4), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8), 6.01(9)
and 6.01(10) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(7), (8) and (9), with respect
only to Significant Subsidiaries) or because of the failure of the Company to
comply with Section 5.01(a)(3). If the Issuers exercise their legal defeasance
option or its covenant defeasance option, each Subsidiary Guarantor, if any,
shall be released from all its obligations with respect to its Subsidiary
Guaranty.

                  Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon
request of the Issuers, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge
of those obligations that the Issuers terminate.

                  (c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuers'
and the Company's obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08,
7.07 and 7.08 and in this Article 8 shall survive until the Securities have been
paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuers' obligations in Sections 7.07, 8.04 and
8.05 shall survive.

                  SECTION 8.02. Conditions to Defeasance. The Issuers may
exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

                                                                             108

                  (1) the Issuers irrevocably deposit in trust with the Trustee
         money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal of
         and interest on the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case
         may be;

                  (2) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee a certificate from a
         nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their
         opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and
         without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus
         any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times
         and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal and interest
         when due on all the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case
         may be;

                  (3) 123 days pass after the deposit is made and during the
         123-day period no Default specified in Sections 6.01(7) or (8) with
         respect to the Issuers or the Company occurs which is continuing at the
         end of the period;

                  (4) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other
         material agreement binding on the Issuers or the Company and is not
         prohibited by Article 10 or Article 12;

                  (5) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
         to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not
         constitute, or is qualified as, a regulated investment company under
         the Investment Company Act of 1940;

                  (6) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Issuers
         shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that
         (A) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published by, the
         Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (B) since the date of this
         Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax
         law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion
         of Counsel shall confirm that, the Securityholders will not recognize
         income, gain or loss for United States

                                                                             109

         Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be
         subject to United States Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the
         same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such
         defeasance had not occurred;

                  (7) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Issuers
         shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
         that the Securityholders will not recognize income, gain or loss for
         United States Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant
         defeasance and will be subject to United States Federal income tax on
         the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would
         have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred;

                  (8) if any of the Issuers is organized under the laws of a
         jurisdiction outside of Australia or the United States at the time,
         such Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
         jurisdiction of organization of such Issuer to the effect that Holders
         will not recognize income, gain or loss for income tax purposes of such
         jurisdiction as a result of such deposit and defeasance, and will be
         subject to income tax of such jurisdiction on the same amounts, and in
         the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if
         such deposit and defeasance, had not occurred;

                  (9) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
         in Australia to the effect that Holders will not recognize income, gain
         or loss income tax purposes of such jurisdiction as a result of such
         deposit and defeasance, and will be subject to income tax of such
         jurisdiction on the same amounts, and in the same manner and at the
         same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance,
         had not occurred; and

                  (10) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
         Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
         precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Securities as
         contemplated by this Article 8 have been complied with.

                  Before or after a deposit, the Issuers may make arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date in
accordance with Article 3.

                  SECTION 8.03. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall
hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to
this Article 8. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S.
Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this
Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities. Money
and securities so held in trust are not subject to Article 10.

                  SECTION 8.04. Repayment to Issuers. The Trustee and the Paying
Agent shall promptly turn over to the Issuers upon request any excess money or
securities held by them at any time.

                  Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee
and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuers upon request any money held by
them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two
years, and, thereafter, Securityholders entitled to the money must look to the
Issuers for payment as general creditors.

                  SECTION 8.05. Indemnity for Government Obligations. The
Issuers shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other
charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or
the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.

                  SECTION 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is
unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this
Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuers' and the Company's
obligations under this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until
such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or
U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided,
however, that, if the Issuers have made any payment of interest on or

principal of any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to
receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                   Amendments

                  SECTION 9.01. Without Consent of Holders. The Issuers, the
Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or
the Securities without notice to or consent of any Securityholder:

                  (1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency
         or any technical default arising from the Goodman Fielder Acquisition;

                  (2) to provide for the assumption by a successor corporation
         of the obligations of the Company, the Issuers, or any Subsidiary
         Guarantor to the extent permitted by this Indenture;

                  (3) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or
         in place of certificated Securities; provided, however, that the
         uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of
         Section 163(f) of the Code or in a manner such that the uncertificated
         Securities are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code;

                  (4) to make any change in Article 10 or Article 12 that would
         limit or terminate the benefits available to any holder of Senior
         Indebtedness of an Issuer, the Company or of a Subsidiary Guarantor (or
         Representatives therefor) under Article 10 or 12;

                  (5) to add guarantees with respect to the Securities,
         including any Subsidiary Guaranty, or to secure the Securities;

                  (6) to add to the covenants of the Company, the Issuers or a
         Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any
         right or power herein

                                                                             112

         conferred upon the Company, the Issuers or a Subsidiary Guarantor;

                  (7) to comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection
         with qualifying, or maintaining the qualification of, this Indenture
         under the TIA; or

                  (8) to make any change that does not adversely affect the
         rights of any Securityholder.

                  An amendment under this Section may not make any change that
adversely affects the rights under Article 10 or 12 of any holder of Senior
Indebtedness of the Company, the Issuers or of a Subsidiary Guarantor then
outstanding unless the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or any group or
representative thereof authorized to give a consent) consent to such change.

                  After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the
Issuers shall mail to Securityholders a notice briefly describing such
amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Securityholders, or any defect
therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this
Section.

                  SECTION 9.02. With Consent of Holders. The Company, the
Issuers, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or
the Securities without notice to any Securityholder but with the written consent
of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then
outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or
exchange for the Securities). However, without the consent of each
Securityholder affected thereby, an amendment may not:

                  (1) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent
         to an amendment;

                  (2) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of
         interest on any Security;

                  (3) reduce the principal amount of or extend the Stated
         Maturity of any Security;

                  (4) reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any
         Security or change the time at which any

         Security may be redeemed in accordance with Article 3 or make any
         change in Section 4.09;

                  (5) make any Security payable in money other than that stated
         in the Security;

                  (6) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of
         principal of and interest on such Holder's Securities on or after the
         due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any
         payment on or with respect to such Holder's Securities, including
         pursuant to the Company Guaranty or any Subsidiary Guaranty;

                  (7) make any change in the ranking or priority of any Security
         that would adversely affect the Securityholders;

                  (8) make any change in Section 6.04 or 6.07 or the second
         sentence of this Section;

                  (9) make any change in the Company Guaranty or any Subsidiary
         Guaranty that would adversely affect the Securityholders; or

                  (10) make any change in Section 4.14 that adversely affects
         the rights of any Securityholder or amend the terms of the Securities
         or this Indenture in a way that would result in the loss of an
         exemption from any of the Taxes described therein.

                  It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under
this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it
shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

                  An amendment under this Section may not make any change that
adversely affects the rights under Article 10 or 12 of any holder of Senior
Indebtedness of the Company, an Issuer or of a Subsidiary Guarantor then
outstanding unless the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or any group or
representative thereof authorized to give a consent) consent to such change.

                  After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the
Issuers shall mail to Securityholders a notice briefly describing such
amendment. The failure to

give such notice to all Securityholders, or any defect therein, shall not impair
or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

                  SECTION 9.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every
amendment to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as then
in effect.

                  SECTION 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A
consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Security shall bind the
Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security
that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security, even if
notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Security. However, any such
Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder's
Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of
revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. After an
amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder. An
amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the execution of such amendment or
waiver by the Trustee.

                  The Issuers may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record
date for the purpose of determining the Securityholders entitled to give their
consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be
taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then
notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were
Securityholders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only
those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent
previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons
continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or
effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

                  SECTION 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Securities. If an
amendment or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the
Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an
appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return it
to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuers or the Trustee so determines, the
Issuers in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall

                                                                             115

authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the
appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of
such amendment or waiver.

                  SECTION 9.06. Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall
sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment does
not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the
Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such
amendment the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully
protected in relying upon, an Officers' Certificate of the Issuers and an
Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by
this Indenture.

                  SECTION 9.07. Payment for Consent. Neither the Issuers, the
Company nor any Affiliate of an Issuer or the Company shall, directly or
indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of
interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any
consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture
or the Securities unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders
that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in
solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement to amend.

                                   ARTICLE 10

                                  Subordination

                  SECTION 10.01. Agreement To Subordinate. The Issuers agree,
and each Securityholder by accepting a Security agrees, that the Indebtedness
evidenced by the Securities is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent
and in the manner provided in this Article 10, to the prior payment in full in
cash of all Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers and that the subordination is for
the benefit of and enforceable by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. The
Securities shall in all respects rank pari passu with all other Senior
Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuers and only Indebtedness of the Issuers
which is Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers shall

<PAGE>

                                                                             116

rank senior to the Securities in accordance with the provisions set forth
herein. All provisions of this Article 10 shall be subject to Section 10.12.

                  SECTION 10.02. Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. Upon any
payment or distribution of the assets of an Issuer to creditors upon a total or
partial liquidation, or a total or partial dissolution of an Issuer or in a
bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding for
the benefit of creditors relating to such Issuer or its property:

                  (1) holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Issuer shall be
         entitled to receive payment in full in cash of such Senior Indebtedness
         before Securityholders shall be entitled to receive any payment of
         principal of or interest on the Securities; and

                  (2) until such Senior Indebtedness of such Issuer is paid in
         full in cash, any payment or distribution to which Securityholders
         would be entitled but for this Article 10 shall be made to holders of
         such Senior Indebtedness as their interests may appear, except that
         Securityholders may receive shares of Capital Stock and any debt
         securities that are subordinated to such Senior Indebtedness to at
         least the same extent as the Securities.

                  SECTION 10.03. Default on Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers.
The Issuers shall not pay the principal of or interest on the Securities or make
any deposit pursuant to Section 8.01 and may not purchase, redeem or otherwise
retire any Securities (collectively, "pay the Securities") if either of the
following (a "Payment Default") occurs (1) any Obligation on any Designated
Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers is not paid in full in cash when due; or (2)
any other default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers occurs and
the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance
with its terms unless, in either case, the Payment Default has been cured or
waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or such Designated Senior
Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash; provided, however, that the Issuers
shall be entitled to pay the Securities without regard to the foregoing if the
Issuers and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the
Representatives of

<PAGE>

                                                                             117

all Designated Senior Indebtedness with respect to which the Payment Default has
occurred and is continuing. During the continuance of any default (other than a
Payment Default) with respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the
Issuers pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated immediately
without further notice (except such notice as may be required to effect such
acceleration) or the expiration of any applicable grace periods, the Issuers
shall not pay the Securities for a period (a "Payment Blockage Period")
commencing upon the receipt by the Trustee of (with a copy to the Issuers)
written notice (a "Blockage Notice") of such default from the Representative of
such Designated Senior Indebtedness specifying an election to effect a Payment
Blockage Period and ending 179 days thereafter. The Payment Blockage Period
shall end earlier if such Payment Blockage Period is terminated (1) by written
notice to the Trustee and the Issuers from the Person or Persons who gave such
Blockage Notice; (2) because the default giving rise to such Blockage Notice is
cured, waived or otherwise no longer continuing; or (3) because such Designated
Senior Indebtedness has been discharged or repaid in full in cash.
Notwithstanding the provisions described in the immediately preceding two
sentences (but subject to the provisions contained in the first sentence of this
Section), unless the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness or the
Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have accelerated the
maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness, the Issuers shall be entitled
to resume payments on the Securities after termination of such Payment Blockage
Period. The Securities shall not be subject to more than one Payment Blockage
Period in any consecutive 360-day period, irrespective of the number of defaults
with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers during such
period. For purposes of this Section, no default or event of default which
existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any Payment
Blockage Period with respect to the Designated Senior Indebtedness of the
Issuers initiating such Payment Blockage Period shall be, or be made, the basis
of the commencement of a subsequent Payment Blockage Period by the
Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness, unless such default or
event of default shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than
90 consecutive days.

                                                                             118

                  SECTION 10.04. Acceleration of Payment of Securities. If
payment of the Securities is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the
Issuers or the Trustee shall promptly notify the holders of the Designated
Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers (or their Representatives) of the
acceleration.

                  SECTION 10.05. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. If a
distribution is made to Securityholders that because of this Article 10 should
not have been made to them, the Securityholders who receive the distribution
shall hold it in trust for holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers and pay
it over to them as their interests may appear.

                  SECTION 10.06. Subrogation. After all Senior Indebtedness of
the Issuers is paid in full and until the Securities are paid in full,
Securityholders shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such Senior
Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Indebtedness. A
distribution made under this Article 10 to holders of such Senior Indebtedness
which otherwise would have been made to Securityholders is not, as between the
Issuers and Securityholders, a payment by the Issuers on such Senior
Indebtedness.

                  SECTION 10.07. Relative Rights. This Article 10 defines the
relative rights of Securityholders and holders of Senior Indebtedness of the
Issuers. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

                  (1) impair, as between the Issuers and Securityholders, the
         obligation of the Issuers, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay
         principal of and interest on the Securities in accordance with their
         terms; or

                  (2) prevent the Trustee or any Securityholder from exercising
         its available remedies upon a Default, subject to the rights of holders
         of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers to receive distributions
         otherwise payable to Securityholders.

                  SECTION 10.08. Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Issuers.
No right of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers to enforce the
subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be impaired

<PAGE>

                                                                             119

by any act or failure to act by the Issuers or by their failure to comply with
this Indenture.

                  SECTION 10.09. Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.
Notwithstanding Section 10.03, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall continue to
make payments on the Securities and shall not be charged with knowledge of the
existence of facts that under this Article 10 would prohibit the making of any
such payments unless, not less than two Business Days prior to the date of such
payment, a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives notice satisfactory to it
that such payments are prohibited by this Article 10. The Issuers, the Registrar
or co-registrar, the Paying Agent, a Representative or a holder of Senior
Indebtedness of the Issuers shall be entitled to give the notice; provided,
however, that, if an issue of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers has a
Representative, only the Representative shall be entitled to give the notice.

                  The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity shall be
entitled to hold Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers with the same rights it
would have if it were not Trustee. The Registrar and co-registrar and the Paying
Agent shall be entitled to do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall be
entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 10 with respect to any
Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers which may at any time be held by it, to the
same extent as any other holder of such Senior Indebtedness; and nothing in
Article 7 shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing
in this Article 10 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under
or pursuant to Section 7.07.

                  SECTION 10.10. Distribution or Notice to Representative.
Whenever any Person is to make a distribution or give a notice to holders of
Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers, such Person shall be entitled to make such
distribution or give such notice to their Representative (if any).

                  SECTION 10.11. Article 10 Not to Prevent Events of Default or
Limit Right To Accelerate. The failure to make a payment pursuant to the
Securities by reason of any provision in this Article 10 shall not be construed
as preventing the occurrence of a Default. Nothing in this

<PAGE>

                                                                             120

Article 10 shall have any effect on the right of the Securityholders or the
Trustee to accelerate the maturity of the Securities.

                  SECTION 10.12. Trust Moneys Not Subordinated. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, payments from money or the proceeds
of U.S. Government Obligations held in trust under Article 8 by the Trustee for
the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities shall not be
subordinated to the prior payment of any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers or
subject to the restrictions set forth in this Article 10, and none of the
Securityholders shall be obligated to pay over any such amount to the Issuers or
any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers or any other creditor of the
Issuers.

                  SECTION 10.13. Trustee Entitled to Rely. Upon any payment or
distribution pursuant to this Article 10, the Trustee and the Securityholders
shall be entitled to conclusively rely (1) upon any order or decree of a court
of competent jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in
Section 10.02 are pending, (2) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or
agent or other Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to
the Securityholders or (3) upon the Representatives of Senior Indebtedness of
the Issuers for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate
in such payment or distribution, the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and
other Indebtedness of the Issuers, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the
amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent
thereto or to this Article 10. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good
faith, that evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a
holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers to participate in any payment or
distribution pursuant to this Article 10, the Trustee shall be entitled to
request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the
extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or
distribution and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this
Article 10, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee shall be
entitled to defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as
to the right of such Person to receive such payment. The provisions of

<PAGE>

                                                                             121

Sections 7.01 and 7.02 shall be applicable to all actions or omissions of
actions by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 10.

                  SECTION 10.14. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. Each
Securityholder by accepting a Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on his
behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or
effectuate the subordination between the Securityholders and the holders of
Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers as provided in this Article 10 and appoints
the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

                  SECTION 10.15. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior
Indebtedness of the Issuers. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any
fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers and shall
not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or distribute
to Securityholders or the Issuers or any other Person, money or assets to which
any holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers shall be entitled by virtue of
this Article 10 or otherwise.

                  SECTION 10.16. Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness of
the Issuers on Subordination Provisions. Each Securityholder by accepting a
Security acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions
are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of
any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers, whether such Senior Indebtedness was
created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Securities, to acquire
and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such
holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied
on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in
continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

                                   ARTICLE 11

                                   Guaranties

                  SECTION 11.01. Company Guaranty. The Company hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to each Holder and to the Trustee and
its successors and assigns (a) the full and punctual payment of principal and
interest on the Securities (including any Additional Amounts payable

<PAGE>

                                                                             122

in respect thereof) when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by
redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Issuers under
this Indenture and the Securities, (b) the full and punctual performance within
applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuers under this
Indenture and the Securities (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively
called the "Guarantied Obligations") and (c) the full and punctual payment of
the principal, interest, and premium, if any, payable in respect of the
Subsidiary Guaranty of Burns Philp Treasury (Europe) B.V. and Burns Philp
Treasury (Australia) Ltd. The Company hereby agrees that its obligations
hereunder shall be as if it were a principal debtor and not merely a surety, and
shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected
by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of the Securities or this
Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of the Securities or this
Indenture, any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Company with
respect thereto, by the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, or any other
circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a
surety or guarantor; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no
such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the
Company, increase the principal amount of a Security or the interest rate
thereon or increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof.

                  The Company hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of
payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of
the Issuers, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuers, the
benefit of discussion, protest or notice with respect to any Security or the
Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that
this Company Guaranty will not be discharged with respect to any Security except
as provided in Section 5.01.

                  The Company Guaranty is, to the extent and in the manner set
forth in Article 12, subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior
payment in full of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all
Senior Indebtedness of the Company and the Company Guaranty is made subject to
such provisions of this Indenture.

<PAGE>

                                                                             123

                  The Company further agrees that, as between it, on the one
hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of
the Guarantied Obligations may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for
purposes of the Company Guaranty, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guarantied
Obligations, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such
Guarantied Obligations as provided in Article 6, such Guarantied Obligations
(whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
Company for the purposes of this Section.

                  The Company shall be subrogated to all rights of each Holder
of Securities against the Issuers in respect of any amounts paid to such Holder
by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Company Guaranty; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be entitled to enforce, or to receive any
payments arising out of or based upon, such right of subrogation until the
Guarantied Obligations and all obligations to which the Guarantied Obligations
are subordinated as provided in Article 12 shall have been paid in full.

                  The Company also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and reasonable expenses) incurred by the
Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section.

                  The Company Guaranty set forth in this Section 11.01 shall not
be valid or become obligatory for any purpose with respect to a Security until
the certificate of authentication on such Security shall have been signed by an
authorized signatory of the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.02.

                  To evidence the Company Guaranty, the Company hereby agrees to
execute the notation of the Company Guaranty in substantially the form included
in the forms of the Securities attached hereto as Exhibit 1 to the Appendix and
Exhibit A to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee. The Company hereby agrees that the Company Guaranty shall remain in
full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a
notation of such Company Guaranty. Each such notation of the Company Guaranty
shall be signed on behalf

<PAGE>

                                                                             124

of the Company by two Officers of the Company, prior to the authentication of
the Security on which it is endorsed, and the delivery of such Security by the
Trustee, after the due authentication thereof by the Trustee pursuant to Section
2.02, shall constitute due delivery of the Company Guaranty on behalf of the
Company. Such signatures upon the notation of the Company Guaranty may be manual
or facsimile signatures of such Officers of the Company and may be imprinted or
otherwise reproduced below the notation of the Company Guaranty, and in case any
such Officer of the Company who shall have signed the notation of the Company
Guaranty shall cease to be such Officer of the Company before the Security on
which such notation is endorsed shall have been authenticated and delivered by
the Trustee or disposed of by the Issuers, such Security nevertheless may be
authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed the
notation of the Company Guaranty had not ceased to be such Officer of the
Company.

                  The Company further agrees that the Company Guaranty herein
shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any
time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed
Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the
Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuers or otherwise.

                  SECTION 11.02. Subsidiary Guaranties. Each Subsidiary
Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and
severally, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, the
Guarantied Obligations, subject to Section 11.03. Each Subsidiary Guarantor
further agrees that the Guarantied Obligations may be extended or renewed, in
whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Subsidiary
Guarantor and that such Subsidiary Guarantor will remain bound under this
Article 11 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guarantied
Obligation.

                  Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of,
payment from and protest to the Issuers of any of the Guarantied Obligations and
also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives
notice of any default under the Securities or the Guarantied Obligations. The
obligations of each Subsidiary

                                                                             125

Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Holder or
the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy
against the Issuers or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities or
any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof;
(c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or
provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the
release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guarantied
Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to
exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guarantied
Obligations; or (f) except as set forth in Section 11.07, any change in the
ownership of such Subsidiary Guarantor.

                  Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary
Guaranty herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance
when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require
that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for
payment of the Guarantied Obligations.

                  Each Subsidiary Guaranty is, to the extent and in the manner
set forth in Article 12, subordinated and subject in right of payment to the
prior payment in full of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on
all Senior Indebtedness of the Subsidiary Guarantor giving such Subsidiary
Guaranty and each Subsidiary Guaranty is made subject to such provisions of this
Indenture.

                  Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01(b), 11.03 and
11.07, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be
subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason,
including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and
shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or
termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability of the Guarantied Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor
herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure
of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any
remedy under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement, by

<PAGE>

                                                                             126

any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay,
willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act
or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in
any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Subsidiary Guarantor or would
otherwise operate as a discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law
or equity.

                  Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary
Guaranty herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on
any Guarantied Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any
Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuers or
otherwise.

                  In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any
other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any
Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuers to pay
the principal of or interest on any Guarantied Obligation (including any
Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) when and as the same shall become
due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to
perform or comply with any other Guarantied Obligation, each Subsidiary
Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the
Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the
Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (1) the unpaid amount of such Guarantied
Obligations (including any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof), (2)
accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantied Obligations (but only to the
extent not prohibited by law) and (3) all other monetary Guarantied Obligations
of the Issuers to the Holders and the Trustee.

                  Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled
to any right of subrogation in respect of any Guarantied Obligations until
payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations and all obligations to which the
Guarantied Obligations are subordinated as provided in Article 12. Each
Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and
the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the
Guarantied Obligations may be accelerated as provided in

<PAGE>

                                                                             127

Article 6 for the purposes of such Subsidiary Guarantor's Subsidiary Guaranty
herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing
such acceleration in respect of the Guarantied Obligations, and (y) in the event
of any declaration of acceleration of such Guarantied Obligations as provided in
Article 6, such Guarantied Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall
forthwith become due and payable by such Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes
of this Section.

                  Each Subsidiary Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs
and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by the Trustee or
any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section.

                  SECTION 11.03. Limitation on Liability of Subsidiary
Guarantors. Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary
notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guarantied Obligations by
any Subsidiary Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby
guaranteed without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Subsidiary
Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or
fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

                  Each Subsidiary Guarantor incorporated in Germany shall not be
liable under its respective Subsidiary Guaranties if and to the extent, at the
time of enforcement of the relevant Subsidiary Guaranty, payments under such
Subsidiary Guaranty would not be allowed pursuant to Section 30 of the German
GmbH-Gesetz (German Act on Limited Liability Companies) in order to preserve the
registered share capital (Stammkapital) of the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor or
of the partners of Deutsche Hefewerke GmbH & Co. OHG (Gesellschafter), as the
case may be.

                  SECTION 11.04. Successors and Assigns. This Article 11 shall
be binding upon each Securities Guarantor and its successors and assigns and
shall enure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the
Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder
or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this
Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be

<PAGE>

                                                                             128

vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions
of this Indenture.

                  SECTION 11.05. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the
part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or
privilege under this Article 11 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a
single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any
right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and
the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any
other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 11
at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

                  SECTION 11.06. Modification. No modification, amendment or
waiver of any provision of this Article 11, nor the consent to any departure by
any Securities Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the
same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. No notice to or demand on any Securities Guarantor in any case
shall entitle such Securities Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand
in the same, similar or other circumstances.

                  SECTION 11.07. Release of Subsidiary Guarantor. Upon the sale
or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of any
Subsidiary Guarantor (other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary), the
sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of such Subsidiary
Guarantor (other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary), the
designation of such Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, or if
(A) such Subsidiary Guarantor is not Guaranteeing any Indebtedness Incurred
pursuant to clause (1) or (2) of Section 4.03(b) and (B) a change in or
amendment to the laws (including any regulations or rules promulgated
thereunder) of the jurisdiction of organization of such Subsidiary Guarantor has
occurred that prohibits such Subsidiary Guarantor from maintaining its
Subsidiary Guarantee, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, such
Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed released from all obligations under this
Article 11 without any further action required on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder. At the request of the

<PAGE>

                                                                             129

Company or the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee shall execute and
deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing such release.

                  SECTION 11.08. Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor that
makes a payment under its Subsidiary Guaranty shall be entitled upon payment in
full of all Guarantied Obligations to a contribution from each other Subsidiary
Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Subsidiary Guarantor's pro rata
portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary
Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

                                   ARTICLE 12

                     Subordination of Securities Guaranties

                  SECTION 12.01. Agreement to Subordinate. Each Securities
Guarantor agrees, and each Securityholder by accepting a Security agrees, that
the Indebtedness evidenced by such Securities Guarantor's Securities Guaranty is
subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in
this Article 12, to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness
of such Securities Guarantor and that the subordination is for the benefit of
and enforceable by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. Subject to mandatory
applicable laws, the Obligations of a Securities Guarantor shall in all respects
rank pari passu with all other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of such
Securities Guarantor and only Senior Indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor
(including such Securities Guarantor's Guarantee of Senior Indebtedness of the
Issuers) shall rank senior to the Obligations of such Securities Guarantor in
accordance with the provisions set forth herein.

                  SECTION 12.02. Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. Upon any
payment or distribution of the assets of any Securities Guarantor upon a total
or partial liquidation, or a total or partial dissolution of such Securities
Guarantor or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or
similar proceeding for the benefit of creditors relating to such Securities
Guarantor or its property:

                                                                             130

                  (1) holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Securities
         Guarantor shall be entitled to receive payment in full of such Senior
         Indebtedness before Securityholders shall be entitled to receive any
         payment pursuant to the Securities Guaranty of such Securities
         Guarantor; and

                  (2) until the Senior Indebtedness of any Securities Guarantor
         is paid in full in cash, any payment or distribution to which
         Securityholders would be entitled but for this Article 12 shall be made
         to holders of such Senior Indebtedness as their interests may appear,
         except that Securityholders may receive shares of Capital Stock and any
         debt securities of such Securities Guarantor that are subordinated to
         such Senior Indebtedness to at least the same extent as the Securities
         Guaranty of such Securities Guarantor.

                  SECTION 12.03. Default on Senior Indebtedness of Securities
Guarantor. No Securities Guarantor shall make any payment in connection with its
Securities Guaranty or purchase, redeem or otherwise retire or defease any
Securities or other Obligations (collectively, "pay its Securities Guaranty") if
either of the following (a "Payment Default") occurs (1) any Obligation on any
Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor is not paid in full
in cash when due; or (2) any other default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of
such Securities Guarantor occurs and the maturity of such Designated Senior
Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its terms; unless, in either
case, the Payment Default has been cured or waived and any such acceleration has
been rescinded or such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in
cash; provided, however, that any Securities Guarantor shall be entitled to pay
its Securities Guaranty without regard to the foregoing if such Securities
Guarantor and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the
Representatives of all Designated Senior Indebtedness with respect to which the
Payment Default has occurred and is continuing. During the continuance of any
default (other than a Payment Default) with respect to any Designated Senior
Indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor pursuant to which the maturity thereof
may be accelerated immediately without further notice (except such notice as may
be required to effect such

<PAGE>

                                                                             131

acceleration) or the expiration of any applicable grace periods, such Securities
Guarantor shall not pay its Securities Guaranty for a period (a "Payment
Blockage Period") commencing upon the receipt by the Trustee of (with a copy to
such Securities Guarantor) written notice (a "Blockage Notice") of such default
from the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness specifying an
election to effect a Payment Blockage Period and ending 179 days thereafter. The
Payment Blockage Period shall end earlier if such Payment Blockage Period is
terminated (1) by written notice to the Trustee and such Securities Guarantor
from the Person or Persons who gave such Blockage Notice; (2) because the
default giving rise to such Blockage Notice is cured, waived or otherwise no
longer continuing; or (3) because such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been
discharged or repaid in full in cash. Notwithstanding the provisions described
in the immediately preceding two sentences (but subject to the provisions
contained in the first sentence of this Section), unless the holders of such
Designated Senior Indebtedness giving such Blockage Notice or the Representative
of such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have accelerated the maturity of
such Designated Senior Indebtedness, any Securities Guarantor shall be entitled
to resume payments pursuant to its Securities Guaranty after termination of such
Payment Blockage Period. No Securities Guarantor shall be subject to more than
one Payment Blockage Period in any consecutive 360-day period, irrespective of
the number of defaults with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness of such
Securities Guarantor during such period. For purposes of this Section, no
default or event of default which existed or was continuing on the date of the
commencement of any Payment Blockage Period with respect to the Designated
Senior Indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor initiating such Payment
Blockage Period shall be, or be made, the basis of the commencement of a
subsequent Payment Blockage Period by the Representative of such Designated
Senior Indebtedness, unless such default or event of default shall have been
cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days.

                  SECTION 12.04. Demand for Payment. If a demand for payment is
made on a Securities Guarantor pursuant to Article 11, the Trustee shall
promptly notify the holders

<PAGE>

                                                                             132

of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor (or their
Representatives) of such demand.

                  SECTION 12.05. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. If a
distribution is made to Securityholders that because of this Article 12 should
not have been made to them, the Securityholders who receive the distribution
shall hold it in trust for holders of Senior Indebtedness of the applicable
Securities Guarantor and pay it over to them or their Representatives as their
interests may appear.

                  SECTION 12.06. Subrogation. After all Senior Indebtedness of a
Securities Guarantor is paid in full and until the Securities are paid in full,
Securityholders shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such Senior
Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to Senior Indebtedness of such
Securities Guarantor. A distribution made under this Article 12 to holders of
such Senior Indebtedness which otherwise would have been made to Securityholders
is not, as between the relevant Securities Guarantor and Securityholders, a
payment by such Securities Guarantor on such Senior Indebtedness.

                  SECTION 12.07. Relative Rights. This Article 12 defines the
relative rights of Securityholders and holders of Senior Indebtedness of a
Securities Guarantor. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

                  (1) impair, as between a Securities Guarantor and
         Securityholders, the obligation of such Securities Guarantor, which is
         absolute and unconditional, to pay its Securities Guaranty to the
         extent set forth in Article 11; or

                  (2) prevent the Trustee or any Securityholder from exercising
         its available remedies upon a default by such Securities Guarantor
         under its Securities Guaranty, subject to the rights of holders of
         Senior Indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor to receive
         distributions otherwise payable to Securityholders.

                  SECTION 12.08. Subordination May Not Be Impaired by a
Securities Guarantor. No right of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of any
Securities Guarantor to enforce the subordination of the Securities Guaranty of
such Securities Guarantor shall be impaired by any act or

<PAGE>

                                                                             133

failure to act by such Securities Guarantor or by its failure to comply with
this Indenture.

                  SECTION 12.09. Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.
Notwithstanding Section 12.03, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall continue to
make payments on any Securities Guaranty and shall not be charged with knowledge
of the existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any such payments
unless, not less than two Business Days prior to the date of such payment, a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives written notice satisfactory to it
that such payments are prohibited by this Article 12. The Issuers, the relevant
Securities Guarantor, the Registrar or co-registrar, the Paying Agent, a
Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor
shall be entitled to give the notice; provided, however, that, if an issue of
Senior Indebtedness of any Securities Guarantor has a Representative, only the
Representative shall be entitled to give the notice.

                  The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity shall be
entitled to hold Senior Indebtedness of any Securities Guarantor with the same
rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. The Registrar and co-registrar
and the Paying Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall be
entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 12 with respect to any
Senior Indebtedness of any Securities Guarantor which may at any time be held by
it, to the same extent as any other holder of such Senior Indebtedness; and
nothing in Article 7 shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such
holder. Nothing in this Article 12 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the
Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07.

                  SECTION 12.10. Distribution or Notice to Representative.
Whenever any Person is to make a distribution or give a notice to holders of
Senior Indebtedness of any Securities Guarantor, such Person shall be entitled
to make such distribution or give such notice to their Representative (if any).

                  SECTION 12.11. Article 12 Not to Prevent Events of Default or
Limit Right to Demand Payment. The failure to make a payment pursuant to a
Securities Guaranty by reason of any provision in this Article 12 shall not be
construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default.

<PAGE>

                                                                             134

Nothing in this Article 12 shall have any effect on the right of the
Securityholders or the Trustee to make a demand for payment on any Securities
Guarantor pursuant to its Securities Guaranty.

                  SECTION 12.12. Trustee Entitled to Rely. Upon any payment or
distribution pursuant to this Article 12, the Trustee and the Securityholders
shall be entitled to rely (1) upon any order or decree of a court of competent
jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 12.02
are pending, (2) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other
Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to the
Securityholders or (3) upon the Representatives for the holders of Senior
Indebtedness of any Securities Guarantor for the purpose of ascertaining the
Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of
such Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor,
the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed
thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 12. In the
event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that evidence is required with
respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness of any
Securities Guarantor to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to
this Article 12, the Trustee shall be entitled to request such Person to furnish
evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of
Senior Indebtedness of such Securities Guarantor held by such Person, the extent
to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution
and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 12,
and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee shall be entitled to defer
any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of
such Person to receive such payment. The provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02
shall be applicable to all actions or omissions of actions by the Trustee
pursuant to this Article 12.

                  SECTION 12.13. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. Each
Securityholder by accepting a Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on his
behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or
effectuate the subordination between the Securityholders and the holders of
Senior Indebtedness of

<PAGE>

                                                                             135

any Securities Guarantor as provided in this Article 12 and appoints the Trustee
as attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

                  SECTION 12.14. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior
Indebtedness of Securities Guarantor. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any
fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any Securities Guarantor
and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or
distribute to Securityholders or the Issuers or any other Person, money or
assets to which any holders of such Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by
virtue of this Article 12 or otherwise.

                  SECTION 12.15. Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness of
Securities Guarantors on Subordination Provisions. Each Securityholder by
accepting a Security acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination
provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to
each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of any Securities Guarantor, whether such
Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the
Securities, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior
Indebtedness and such holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively
to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to
hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision which is
required to be included in this Indenture by the TIA, the required provision
shall control.

in any suit or proceeding against it instituted by the Trustee, based on or
arising under this Indenture or the Securities and the transactions contemplated
hereby in any federal or state court in the State of New York, County of New
York, and each of the Issuers, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the
Trustee hereby irrevocably consents and submits to the jurisdiction of, and
Burns Philp Food, S.A. hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of, any such
court and to the courts of its own corporate domicile in respect of actions

any such suit or proceeding.

                  (b) each of the Issuers, the Company and the Subsidiary
Guarantors further, by the execution and delivery of this Indenture, irrevocably

proceeding brought against it with respect to its obligations, liabilities or
any other matter arising out of or in connection with this Indenture or the

that it has notified CT Corporation of such designation and appointment and that
CT Corporation has accepted the same, and that CT Corporation has been paid its
full fee for such designation, appointment and related services through the date

written notice of said service to the Issuers, the Company or a Subsidiary
Guarantor, as applicable, pursuant to Section 13.02 of this Indenture, shall be
deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit or
proceeding. If for any reason such designee, appointee and agent hereunder shall
cease to be available to act as such, each of the Issuers, the Company and the
Subsidiary Guarantors agrees to designate a new designee, appointee and agent in
The City of New York, New York on the terms and for the purposes of this Section

Subsidiary Guarantors further hereby irrevocably consents and agrees to the
service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents in any such
action, suit or proceeding against the it by serving a copy thereof upon the
relevant agent for service of process referred to in this Section (whether or
not the appointment of such agent shall for any reason prove to be ineffective

thereof by registered or certified air mail, postage prepaid, to the it at its
address specified in or designated pursuant to this Indenture. Each of the
Issuers, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that the failure of
any such designee, appointee and agent to give any notice of such service to it
shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service or any
judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon. Nothing herein
shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the Trustee to serve any such
legal process, summons, notices and documents in any other manner permitted by
applicable law. Each of the Issuers, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue
of any of the aforesaid actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or in
connection with this Indenture brought in federal or state court in the State of
New York, County of New York, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally
waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action,
suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum.

                  (c) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it
is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than United
States dollars, the

                                                                             141

parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so,
that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with
normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase United States dollars with
the other currency in New York City on the business day preceding that on which
final judgment is given. The obligation of the any party hereto in respect of
any sum due from it to the Trustee shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a
currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first
business day, following receipt by the Trustee of any sum adjudged to be so due
in the other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) the Trustee may in
accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with
the other currency; if the United States dollars so purchased are less than the
sum originally due to the Trustee hereunder, such party agrees, as a separate
obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Trustee
against the loss. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the
sum originally due to the Trustee hereunder, the Trustee agrees to pay to such
party an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum
originally due to the Trustee hereunder.

                  (d) To the extent that any of the Issuers, the Company or the
Subsidiary Guarantors may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or
from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to
judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect
to itself or its property, it hereby irrevocably waives such immunity, to the
fullest extent permitted by law.

                  (e) The provisions of this Section shall survive any
termination of this Indenture, in whole or in part.

Issuers under the Securities or this Indenture or of such Securities Guarantor
under its Securities Guaranty or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in
respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a
Security, each Securityholder shall waive and release all such liability. Such
waiver and release shall

("Regulation S"). Initial Securities may thereafter be transferred to, among

pursuant to Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of one or more
permanent global Securities in definitive, fully registered form (collectively,
the "Rule 144A Global Security") and Initial Securities initially resold
pursuant to Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of one or more
temporary global securities in definitive, fully registered form (collectively,

coupons and with the global securities legend and restricted securities legend
set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto, which shall be deposited on behalf of the

Custodian, and registered in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the

Global Security"), or any other Security without a legend

the Distribution Compliance Period and then only upon certification in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee that beneficial ownership interests in
such Temporary Regulation S Global Security are owned either by non-U.S. persons
or U.S. persons who purchased such interests in a transaction that did not
require registration under the Securities Act. The Rule 144A Global Security,
the Temporary Regulation S Global Security and the Permanent Regulation S Global
Security are collectively referred to herein as "Global Securities". The
aggregate principal amount of the Global Securities may from time to time be
increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the
Depository or its nominee as hereinafter provided.

                  (b) Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 2.1(b) shall apply

with this Section 2.1(b), authenticate and deliver initially one or more Global
Securities that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depository for such
Global Security or Global Securities or the nominee of such Depository and (b)
shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such
Depository's instructions or held by the Trustee as custodian for the
Depository.

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

or by an Officer of each Issuer and either an Assistant Treasurer or an

Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of
Securities is to be authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of Additional
Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture, shall certify that such
issuance is in compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture.

         2.3      Transfer and Exchange.

exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially

         Exchange Securities pursuant to and during the period of the

         all requirements pertaining to legends relating to the restrictions on
         transfer relating to the Securities Act on such Initial Security or
         such Private Exchange Security will cease to apply, the requirements
         requiring any such Initial Security or such Private Exchange Security
         issued to certain Holders be issued in global form will cease to apply,
         and a certificated Initial Security or Private Exchange Security or an

                   [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF INITIAL SECURITY]

                    10 3/4% Senior Subordinated Note due 2011

1.  Interest

                  Burns Philp Capital Pty Limited (ACN 100 768 803), an
Australian corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under
the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the "Australian
Issuer"), and Burns Philp Capital (U.S.) Inc., a Delaware corporation (such
corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter
referred to, being herein called the "US Issuer" and, collectively with the
Australian Issuer, the "Issuers"), promise to pay interest on the principal
amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above; provided, however,
that:

                  (a) in the event the aggregate amount of Goodman Fielder
Acquisition Indebtedness Incurred by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
exceeds the sum of (x) A$1,400.0 million and (y) US$535.0 million, then
additional interest will accrue on this Security at a rate of 0.50% per annum;

                  (b) in the event the Company does not receive Net Cash
Proceeds in an amount equal to or greater than A$140.0 million from the exercise
of Company Options subsequent to February 1, 2003 and on or prior to August 31,
2003, then additional interest will accrue on this Security at a rate of 0.50%
per annum; provided, however, that no such additional interest shall accrue on
the Securities pursuant to this clause (b) if at no time on August 14, 2003 the
fair market value of one ordinary share of the Company exceeds the per share
exercise price for each Company Option; and

                  (c) if a Registration Default (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement) occurs, additional interest will accrue on this Security at a
rate of 0.25% per annum (increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum after each
consecutive 90-day period that occurs after the date on which such Registration
Default occurs up to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.00%) from and
including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to

<PAGE>

                                                                               8

but excluding the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured.

                  Any additional interest accruing pursuant to clauses (a), (b)
or (c) of the preceeding paragraph shall be cumulative, and the accrual of
interest under one clause shall not be limited by accrual of interest under any
other clause of the preceeding paragraph. For purposes of clause (b) of the
preceding paragraph, the "fair market value" of an ordinary share of the Company
at any time shall be the price listed or quoted to purchase one ordinary share
of the Company on the Australian Stock Exchange (or, if the ordinary shares of
the Company are not so listed or quoted, the "fair market value" shall be
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company).

                  The Issuers will pay interest semiannually on February 15 and
August 15 of each year, commencing August 15, 2003. Interest on the Securities
will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from February 20, 2003. Interest on overdue principal
will be paid by the Issuers at 1% per annum in excess of the rate shown above
and the Issuers will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at such
higher rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2.  Method of Payment

                  The Issuers will pay interest on the Securities (except
defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at
the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 next preceding the interest
payment date even if Securities are canceled after the record date and on or
before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying
Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuers will pay principal and interest
in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities
represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, and
interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Issuers

<PAGE>

                                                                               9

will make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including
principal, premium, if any, and interest) by mailing a check to the registered
address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a
certificated Security will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account
maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects
payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying
Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately
preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee
may accept in its discretion).

3.  Paying Agent and Registrar

                  Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, a national
banking association (the "Trustee"), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The
Issuers may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar
without notice. The Issuers, the Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary may act
as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

4.  Indenture

                  The Issuers issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as
of February 20, 2003 ("Indenture"), among the Issuers, the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those
stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the
Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on
the date of the Indenture (the "Act"). Terms defined in the Indenture and not
defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The
Securities are subject to all such terms, and Securityholders are referred to
the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms.

                  The Securities are general unsecured obligations of the
Issuers. The Issuers shall be entitled, subject to its and the Company's
compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture, to issue Additional Securities
pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture. The Initial Securities issued on the
Issue Date, any Additional Securities and all Exchange Securities or Private
Exchange Securities issued

<PAGE>

                                                                              10

in exchange therefor will be treated as a single class for all purposes under
the Indenture. The Indenture contains covenants that limit the ability of the
Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness; pay dividends or
distributions on, or redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; issue
or sell capital stock of subsidiaries; engage in transactions with affiliates;
transfer or sell assets; guarantee indebtedness; restrict dividends or other
payments of subsidiaries; consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially
all of its assets and the assets of its subsidiaries. These covenants are
subject to important exceptions and qualifications.

5.  Optional Redemption

                  Except as set forth below or under paragraph 6 below, the
Issuers shall not be entitled to redeem the Securities prior to February 15,
2007.

                  On and after February 15, 2007, the Issuers shall be entitled
at their option to redeem all or a portion of the Securities upon not less than
30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at the redemption prices (expressed in
percentages of principal amount on the redemption date), plus accrued interest
to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the
relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment
date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on February 15 of the
years set forth below:

                  Prior to February 15, 2006 the Issuers may at their option on
one or more occasions redeem Securities (which includes Additional Securities,
if any) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Securities (which includes Additional Securities, if
any) originally issued at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of

interest to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds from one or more
Qualified Equity Issuances; provided, however, that

                  (1) at least 65% of such aggregate principal amount of
         Securities, other than Securities (which includes Additional
         Securities, if any) held directly or indirectly by the Company or its
         Affiliates, remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of
         each such redemption; and

                  (2) each such redemption occurs within 90 days after the date
         of the related Qualified Equity Issuance. For purposes of this clause
         (2), the date of a Qualified Equity Issuance pursuant to the exercise
         of Company Options shall be August 23, 2003.

6.  Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes

                  The Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the
case may be, shall be entitled to redeem the Securities, at their option, at any
time as a whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days'
notice, at 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable)
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption
(subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to
receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in the event the
Issuers or, if actually called upon to make a payment under a Guaranty, the
Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, have become or would
become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable
with respect to the Securities, any Additional Amounts (and, in the case of any
payment required under a Guaranty, no other Subsidiary Guarantor is able to make
the payment without being obligated to pay Additional Amounts) as a result of:

                  (1) a change in or an amendment to the laws or treaties
         (including any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any
         Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction; or

                  (2) any change in or amendment to any official position
         regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, treaties,
         regulations or rulings

<PAGE>

                                                                              12

         (including a holding, order or decree or a court of competent
         jurisdiction or any other authority or agency having jurisdiction with
         respect to taxes),

which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after February
12, 2003 and the Company, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors cannot avoid
such obligation by taking reasonable measures available to them (which
reasonable measures shall not include changing the Issuers', the Company's or
any Subsidiary Guarantor's obligations with respect to Securities). The
foregoing provisions will apply mutatis mutandis to the laws and official
positions of any jurisdiction in which any successor permitted under Section
5.01 of the Indenture is organized, but only with respect to events arising
after the date of succession.

                  Before publishing or mailing notice of redemption of the
Securities as described above, the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantors, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate of the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the
case may be, to the effect that the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantors, as the case may be, cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional
Amounts by taking reasonable measures available to it. The Issuers, the Company
or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, shall also deliver an opinion
of independent legal counsel of recognized standing stating that the Issuers,
the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, would be obligated
to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a change or amendment referred to in
clause (1) or (2) above.

7.  Notice of Redemption

                  Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not
more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Securities to be
redeemed at its registered address. Securities in denominations larger than
US$1,000 principal amount may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of

interest on all Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the

satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Securities
(or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

8.  Put Provisions

                  Upon the occurrence of a Non-Consummation Event, any Holder of
Securities will have the right to cause the Issuers to repurchase all or any
part of the Securities of such Holder at a repurchase price equal to the
Accreted Value Premium with respect to the Securities to be repurchased plus
accrued interest to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of
record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related
interest payment date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the
Indenture.

                  Upon a Change of Control, any Holder of Securities will have
the right to cause the Issuers to repurchase all or any part of the Securities
of such Holder at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of

Holder of Securities will have the right to cause the Issuers to repurchase all
or any part of the Securities of such Holder at a repurchase price equal to
111.75% of the Accreted Value of the Securities to be repurchased plus accrued
interest to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on
the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment
date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture.

9.  Subordination

                  The Securities are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the
Issuers, as defined in the Indenture. To the extent provided in the Indenture,
Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers must be paid before the Securities may be
paid. The Issuers agree, and each

<PAGE>

                                                                              14

Securityholder by accepting a Security agrees, to the subordination provisions
contained in the Indenture and authorizes the Trustee to give it effect and
appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for such purpose.

10.  Guaranties

                  The payment by the Issuers of the principal of, and premium
and interest on, the Securities is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a
joint and several senior subordinated basis by each of the Securities Guarantors
on the terms set forth in the Indenture.

11.  Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

                  The Securities are in registered form without coupons in
denominations of US$1,000 principal amount and whole multiples of US$1,000. A
Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The
Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate
endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law
or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of
or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a
Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed)
or any Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be
redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.

12.  Persons Deemed Owners

                  The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the
owner of it for all purposes.

13.  Unclaimed Money

                  If money for the payment of principal or interest remains
unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to
the Issuers at their request unless an abandoned property law designates another
Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to
the Issuers and not to the Trustee for payment.

                                                                              15

14.  Discharge and Defeasance

                  Subject to certain conditions, the Issuers and the Company at
any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all of their obligations under
the Securities and the Indenture if the Issuers deposit with the Trustee money
or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the
Securities to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

15.  Amendment, Waiver

                  Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i)
the Indenture and the Securities may be amended with the written consent of the
Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities
and (ii) any default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the
written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of
the Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture,
without the consent of any Securityholder, the Issuers, the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee shall be entitled to amend the Indenture
or the Securities to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency or
any technical default arising from the Goodman Fielder Acquisition, or to
provide for the assumption by a successor corporation of the obligations of the
Company, the Issuers, or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or to provide for
uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities,
or to add guarantees with respect to the Securities, including Subsidiary
Guaranties, or to secure the Securities, or to add additional covenants or
surrender rights and powers conferred on the Issuers, the Company or the
Subsidiary Guarantors, or to comply with any requirement of the SEC in
connection with qualifying the Indenture under the Act, or to make certain
changes in the subordination provisions, or to make any change that does not
adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder.

                  Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default for
30 days in payment of interest on the Securities; (ii) default in payment of
principal on the

<PAGE>

                                                                              16

Securities at maturity, upon redemption pursuant to paragraph 5 or 6 of the
Securities, upon acceleration or otherwise, or failure by the Issuers to redeem
or purchase Securities when required; (iii) failure by the Company to comply
with other agreements in the Indenture or the Securities, in certain cases
subject to notice and lapse of time; (iv) acceleration or failure to pay within
any grace period after final maturity of other Indebtedness of the Company, the
Issuers or any Significant Subsidiary if the amount accelerated or so unpaid
exceeds US$10.0 million; (v) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with
respect to the Issuers, the Company and the Significant Subsidiaries; (vi)
certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in excess of US$10.0
million and (vii) certain defaults with respect to Securities Guaranties. If an
Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the Securities
to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being due and payable
immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

                  Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the
Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to
enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security
satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any
trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any
continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it
determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders.

17.  Trustee Dealings with the Issuers

                  Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Act, the Trustee
under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect
obligations owed to it by the Issuers or their Affiliates and may otherwise deal
with the Issuers or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it
were not Trustee.

18.  No Recourse Against Others

                  A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of an
Issuer, the Company or the Trustee shall not have any liability for any
obligations of the Issuers or the Company under the Securities or the Indenture
or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or
their creation. By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases
all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the
issue of the Securities.

19.  Authentication

21.  CUSIP, ISIN and Common Code Numbers

                  The Issuers have caused CUSIP, ISIN and Common Code numbers to
be printed on the Securities and has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP, ISIN and
Common Code numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to
Securityholders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers
either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption
and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed

1.  Interest

                  Burns Philp Capital Pty Limited (ACN 100 769 803), an
Australian corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under
the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the "Australian
Issuer"), and Burns Philp Capital (U.S.) Inc., a Delaware corporation (such
corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter
referred to, being called the "US Issuer" and, collectively with the Australian
Issuer, the "Issuers"), promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Security at the rate per annum shown above; provided, however, that:

                  (a) in the event the aggregate amount of Goodman Fielder
Acquisition Indebtedness Incurred by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
exceeds the sum of (x) A$1,400.0 million and (y) US$535.0 million, then
additional interest will accrue on this Security at a rate of 0.50% per annum;
and

                  (b) in the event the Company does not receive Net Cash
Proceeds in an amount equal to or greater than A$140.0 million from the exercise
of Company Options subsequent to February 1, 2003 and on or prior to August 31,
2003, then additional interest will accrue on this Security at a rate of 0.50%
per annum; provided, however, that no such additional interest shall accrue on
the Securities pursuant to this clause (b) if at no time on August 14, 2003 the
fair market value of one ordinary share of the Company exceeds the per share
exercise price for each Company Option; [AND]

                  [(C) IF A REGISTRATION DEFAULT (AS DEFINED IN THE REGISTRATION
RIGHTS AGREEMENT) OCCURS, ADDITIONAL INTEREST WILL ACCRUE ON THIS SECURITY AT A
RATE OF 0.25% PER ANNUM (INCREASING BY AN ADDITIONAL 0.25% PER ANNUM AFTER EACH
CONSECUTIVE 90-DAY PERIOD THAT OCCURS AFTER THE DATE ON WHICH SUCH REGISTRATION
DEFAULT OCCURS UP TO A MAXIMUM ADDITIONAL INTEREST RATE OF 1.00%) FROM AND
INCLUDING THE DATE ON WHICH ANY SUCH REGISTRATION DEFAULT SHALL OCCUR TO BUT
EXCLUDING THE DATE ON WHICH ALL REGISTRATION DEFAULTS HAVE BEEN CURED.]

<PAGE>

                                                                               6

                  Any additional interest accruing pursuant to clauses (a), (b)
or (c) of the preceeding paragraph shall be cumulative, and the accrual of
interest under one clause shall not be limited by accrual of interest under any
other clause of the preceeding paragraph. For purposes of clause (b) of the
preceding paragraph, the "fair market value" of an ordinary share of the Company
at any time shall be the price listed or quoted to purchase one ordinary share
of the Company on the Australian Stock Exchange (or, if the ordinary shares of
the Company are not so listed or quoted, the "fair market value" shall be
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company).

                  The Issuers will pay interest semiannually on February 15 and
August 15 of each year, commencing August 15, 2003. Interest on the Securities
will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from February 20, 2003. Interest on overdue principal
will be paid by the Issuers at 1% per annum in excess of the rate shown above
and the Issuers will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at such
higher rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2.  Method of Payment

                  The Issuers will pay interest on the Securities (except
defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at
the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 next preceding the interest
payment date even if Securities are canceled after the record date and on or
before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying
Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuers will pay principal and interest
in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities
represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, and
interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Issuers will make all
payments in respect of a certificated Security (including principal, premium, if
any, and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder
thereof; provided, however, that payments on a certificated Security will be
made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a
bank in the

                                                                               7

United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written
notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such
account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for
payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

3.  Paying Agent and Registrar

                  Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, a national
banking association (the "Trustee"), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The
Issuers may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar
without notice. The Issuers, the Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary may act
as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

4.  Indenture

                  The Issuers issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as
of February 20, 2003 ("Indenture"), among the Issuers, the Company, the

time as a whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days'
notice, at 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable)
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption
(subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to
receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in the event the
Issuers or, if actually called upon to make a payment under a Guaranty, the
Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, have become or would
become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable
with respect to the Securities, any Additional Amounts (and, in the case of any
payment required under a Guaranty, no other Subsidiary Guarantor is able to make
the payment without being obligated to pay Additional Amounts) as a result of:

(1) a change in or an amendment to the laws or treaties (including any
regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction; or

(2) any change in or amendment to any official position regarding the
application or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings
(including a holding, order or decree or a court of competent jurisdiction or
any other authority or agency having jurisdiction with respect to taxes),

which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after February
12, 2003 and the Company, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors cannot avoid
such obligation by taking reasonable measures available to them (which
reasonable measures shall not include changing the Issuers', the Company's or
any Subsidiary Guarantor's obligations with respect to the Securities). The
foregoing provisions will apply mutatis mutandis to the laws and official
positions of any jurisdiction in which any successor permitted under Section
5.01 of the Indenture is organized, but only with respect to events arising
after the date of succession.

Securities as described above, the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantors, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers'

Guarantors, as the case may be, cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional
Amounts by taking reasonable measures available to it. The Issuers, the Company
or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, shall also deliver an opinion
of independent legal counsel of recognized standing stating that the Issuers,

                  The Securities are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the
Issuers, as defined in the Indenture. To the extent provided in the Indenture,
Senior Indebtedness of the Issuers must be paid before the Securities may be
paid. The Issuers agrees, and each Securityholder by accepting a Security
agrees, to the subordination provisions contained in the Indenture and
authorizes the Trustee to give it effect and appoints the Trustee as
attorney-in-fact for such purpose.

10.  Guaranties

                  The payment by the Issuers of the principal of, and premium
and interest on, the Securities is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a
joint and several senior subordinated basis by each of the Securities Guarantors
on the terms set forth in the Indenture.

11.  Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

                  The Securities are in registered form without coupons in
denominations of US$1,000 principal amount and whole multiples of US$1,000. A
Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The
Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate
endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law
or permitted by the Indenture.

part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any Securities for a
period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be redeemed or 15 days
before an interest payment date.

12.  Persons Deemed Owners

                  The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the
owner of it for all purposes.

13.  Unclaimed Money

                  If money for the payment of principal or interest remains
unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to
the Issuers at their request unless an abandoned property law designates another
Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to
the Issuers and not to the Trustee for payment.

14.  Discharge and Defeasance

                  Subject to certain conditions, the Issuers and the Company at
any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all of their obligations under

Securities to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

the Indenture and the Securities may be amended with the written consent of the
Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities
and (ii) any default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the
written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of
the Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture,
without the consent of any Securityholder, the Issuers, the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee shall be entitled to amend the Indenture
or the Securities to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency or
any technical default arising from the Goodman Fielder Acquisition, or to
provide for the

assumption by a successor corporation of the obligations of the Company, the
Issuers, or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or to provide for uncertificated
Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities, or to add
guarantees with respect to the Securities, including Subsidiary Guaranties, or
to secure the Securities, or to add additional covenants or surrender rights and
powers conferred on the Issuers, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, or to
comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection with qualifying the
Indenture under the Act, or to make certain changes in the subordination
provisions, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of
any Securityholder.

16.  Defaults and Remedies

                  Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default for
30 days in payment of interest on the Securities; (ii) default in payment of
principal on the Securities at maturity, upon redemption pursuant to paragraph 5
or 6 of the Securities, upon acceleration or otherwise, or failure by the
Issuers to redeem or purchase Securities when required; (iii) failure by the
Company to comply with other agreements in the Indenture or the Securities, in
certain cases subject to notice and lapse of time; (iv) acceleration or failure
to pay within any grace period after final maturity of other Indebtedness of the
Company, the Issuers or any Significant Subsidiary if the amount accelerated or
so unpaid exceeds US$10.0 million; (v) certain events of bankruptcy or
insolvency with respect to the Issuers, the Company and the Significant
Subsidiaries; (vi) certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in
excess of US$10.0 million and (vii) certain defaults with respect to Securities
Guaranties. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the
Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all
the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being
due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

                  Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the
Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to
enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security
satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities may direct the Trustee in its

<PAGE>

                                                                              14

exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders
notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or
interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the
Holders.

17.  Trustee Dealings with the Issuers

                  Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Act, the Trustee
under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect
obligations owed to it by the Issuers or their Affiliates and may otherwise deal
with the Issuers or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it
were not Trustee.

18.  No Recourse Against Others

                  A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of an
Issuer, the Company or the Trustee shall not have any liability for any
obligations of the Issuers or the Company under the Securities or the Indenture
or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or
their creation. By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases
all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the
issue of the Securities.

19.  Authentication

                  This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory
of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of
authentication on the other side of this Security.

and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed
