Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "Notes");

     WHEREAS, Section 4.10 of the Indenture provides that under certain
circumstances the Company may cause, and Section 4.20 of the Indenture provides
that under certain circumstances the Company must cause, certain of its
subsidiaries to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture

Company's Obligations under the Notes pursuant to a Guarantee on the terms and
conditions set forth herein; and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Indenture, the Trustee is
authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the New
Subsidiary Guarantor and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal
and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:
