          (1) a term has the meaning assigned to it;

this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced
by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders
in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or
instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly
required, to the Company or the Guarantors. Such instrument or instruments (and
the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred

law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to such officer the execution thereof.
Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than such
signer's individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also
constitute sufficient proof of such signer's authority. The fact and date of the

executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee
deems sufficient.

authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may,
at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record
date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company
shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be
given

                                        9
<Page>

before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of
business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of
determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of outstanding
Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that
purpose the outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date;
PROVIDED that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such
record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant
to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record
date.

     AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD
     WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, U.S.
     PERSONS EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION
     HEREOF, THE HOLDER (1) REPRESENTS THAT (A) IT IS A "QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL
     BUYER" (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OR (B) IT IS NOT

     UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
     DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF
     TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN
     THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN
     AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (AND ANY PAYMENT
     HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN
     AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY), ANY TRANSFER,
     PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS
     WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST
     HEREIN.

     TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL NOTE SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS IN WHOLE, BUT
     NOT IN PART, TO NOMINEES OF CEDE & CO. OR TO A SUCCESSOR THEREOF OR SUCH
     SUCCESSOR'S NOMINEE AND TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF THIS GLOBAL NOTE SHALL BE
     LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN
     SECTION 2.8 OF THE INDENTURE.

          Section 2.3      EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION AND DENOMINATIONS. Subject
to applicable law, the aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be
authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. The Notes (with
the Guarantees endorsed thereon) shall be executed by two Officers of the
Company. The signature of these Officers on the Notes and the Guarantors and the
Guarantees may be by facsimile or manual signature.

          If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office
at the time the Trustee or authenticating agent authenticates the Note, the Note
shall be valid nevertheless.

          A Note shall not be valid until the Trustee or authenticating agent
manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature
shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this
Indenture.

          At any time and from time to time after the execution of this
Indenture, the Trustee or an authenticating agent shall upon receipt of a
Company Order authenticate for original issue Notes in the aggregate principal
amount specified in such Company Order; PROVIDED that the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of

                                       12
<Page>

Counsel of the Company in connection with such authentication of Notes. Such
Company Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date
on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated.

          The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent to authenticate Notes.
An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so.
Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes
authentication by such authenticating agent. An authenticating agent has the
same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company.

          The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons
and only in denominations of $1,000 in principal amount and any integral
multiple thereof.

          Section 2.4      REGISTRAR AND PAYING AGENT. The Company shall
maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of
transfer or for exchange (the "Registrar"), an office or agency where Notes may
be presented for payment (the "Paying Agent") and an office or agency where
notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this
Indenture may be served, which shall be in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
New York. The Company shall cause the Registrar to keep a register of the Notes
and of their transfer and exchange (the "Security Register"). The Security
Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted
into written form within a reasonable time. The Company may have one or more
co-Registrars and one or more additional Paying Agents.

          The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any
Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the
provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Company shall give
prompt written notice to the Trustee of the name and address of any such Agent
and any change in the address of such Agent. If the Company fails to maintain a
Registrar, Paying Agent and/or agent for service of notices and demands, the
Trustee shall act as such Registrar, Paying Agent and/or agent for service of
notices and demands. The Company may remove any Agent upon written notice to
such Agent and the Trustee; PROVIDED that no such removal shall become effective
until (i) the acceptance of an appointment by a successor Agent to such Agent as
evidenced by an appropriate agency agreement entered into by the Company and
such successor Agent and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the
Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as such Agent until the appointment of a
successor Agent in accordance with clause (i) of this proviso. The Company, any
Subsidiary of the Company, or any Affiliate of any of them may act as Paying
Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar, and/or agent for service of notice and
demands.

          The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent,
authenticating agent and agent for service of notice and demands. 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 Holders and shall otherwise
comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company
shall furnish to the Trustee as of each Regular Record Date and at such other
times as the Trustee may reasonably request the names and addresses of Holders
as they appear in the Security Register, including the aggregate principal
amount of Notes held by each Holder.

          Section 2.5      PAYING AGENT TO HOLD MONEY IN TRUST. Not later than
10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each due date of the principal, premium, if
any, and interest (including Additional Interest) on any Notes, the Company
shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds
sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest so becoming due.
The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in
writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the
Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes (whether such money has
been paid to it by the Company or any Guarantor), and such Paying Agent shall
promptly notify the Trustee of any default by the Company (or the Guarantors) in
making any such payment. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to
pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed, and
the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any payment default, upon
written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to pay all money
held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon doing so,
the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money so paid over to
the Trustee. If the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or any Affiliate of
any of them acts as Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of any
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, segregate and hold in a
separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders a sum of money sufficient to
pay such principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due until such sum
of money shall be paid to such Holders or otherwise disposed of as provided in
this Indenture, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure to
act.

          Section 2.6      TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE. The Notes are issuable only
in registered form. A Holder may transfer a Note only by written application to
the Registrar stating the name of the proposed transferee and otherwise
complying with the terms of this Indenture. No such transfer shall be effected
until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of a Holder only upon,
final acceptance and registration of the transfer by the Registrar in the
Security Register. Prior to the registration of any transfer by a Holder as
provided herein, the Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company shall
treat the person in whose name the Note is registered as the owner thereof for
all purposes whether or not the Note shall be overdue, and neither the Company,
the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Furthermore, any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global
Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note may be
effected only through a book entry system maintained by the Holder of such
Global Note (or its agent) and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the
Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. When Notes are presented
to the Registrar or a co-Registrar with a request to register the transfer or to
exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other authorized
denominations (including an exchange of Notes for Exchange Notes), the Registrar
shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its
requirements for such transactions are met (including that such Notes are duly
endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Trustee and Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or by an
attorney who is authorized in writing to act on behalf of the Holder); PROVIDED
that no exchanges of Notes for Exchange Notes shall occur until a Registration
Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission and that any
Notes that are exchanged for Exchange Notes shall be cancelled by the Trustee.
To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute,
the Guarantors shall endorse and the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the
Registrar's request. No service charge shall be made for any registration of
transfer or exchange or redemption of the

                                       14

Notes, but the Company 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 2.11, 3.7 or 9.5).

          The Registrar shall not be required (i) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of
Notes selected for redemption under Section 3.2 and ending at the close of
business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or
exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the

          Section 2.7      BOOK-ENTRY PROVISIONS FOR GLOBAL NOTES.

          (a)     The U.S. Global Notes and Offshore Global Notes initially
shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Notes or
the nominee of such Depositary, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian
for such Depositary and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Section 2.2.

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

          (b)     Transfers of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of
such Global Note in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or
their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in Global Notes may be
transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary and
the provisions of Section 2.8. In addition, U.S. Physical Notes and Offshore
Physical Notes shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for
their beneficial interests in the U.S. Global Notes or the Offshore Global
Notes, as the case may be, if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is
unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the U.S. Global Notes or the
Offshore Global Notes, as the case may be, or such Depositary has ceased to be a
"clearing agency" registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary
is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or cessation, (ii)
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has
received a request from the Depositary, (iii) the Company has provided the
Trustee with written notice that it has decided to discontinue use of the system
of book-entry transfers through the Depositary or any successor Depositary or
(iv) in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary and the
provisions of Section 2.8.

                                       15
<Page>

          (c)     Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is
transferred to a person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another
Global Note will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and
become an interest in such other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter
be subject to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable
to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such
an interest.

          (d)     In connection with any transfer of a portion of the beneficial
interests in a Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph (b) of
this Section 2.7, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date
and a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to
the principal amount of the beneficial interest in such Global Note to be
transferred, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, one or more U.S. Physical Notes or Offshore Physical Notes, as the
case may be, of like tenor and amount.

          (e)     In connection with the transfer of the U.S. Global Notes or
the Offshore Global Notes, in whole, to beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph
(b) of this Section 2.7, the U.S. Global Notes or Offshore Global Notes, as the
case may be, shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation,
and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary in exchange for its
beneficial interest in the U.S. Global Notes or Offshore Global Notes, as the
case may be, an equal aggregate principal amount of U.S. Physical Notes or
Offshore Physical Notes, as the case may be, of authorized denominations.

          (f)     Any U.S. Physical Note delivered in exchange for an interest
in the U.S. Global Notes pursuant to paragraph (b), (d) or (e) of this Section
2.7 shall, except as otherwise provided by paragraph (e) of Section 2.8, bear
the legend regarding transfer restrictions applicable to the U.S. Physical Note
set forth in Section 2.2.

          (g)     Any Offshore Physical Note delivered in exchange for an
interest in the Offshore Global Notes pursuant to paragraph (b), (d) or (e) of
this Section 2.7 shall, except as otherwise provided by paragraph (e) of Section
2.8, bear the legend regarding transfer restrictions applicable to the Offshore
Physical Note set forth in Section 2.2.

          (h)     The registered holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and
otherwise authorize any person, including Agent Members and persons that may
hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is
entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

          Section 2.8      SPECIAL TRANSFER PROVISIONS. Unless and until a Note
is exchanged for an Exchange Note or sold in connection with an effective
Registration Statement pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the
following provisions shall apply:

          (a)     [Intentionally Omitted.]

          (b)     TRANSFERS TO QIBS.  The following provisions shall apply with
respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note to a QIB

                                       16
<Page>

          (i)     If the Note to be transferred consists of (x) either Offshore
     Physical Notes or U.S. Physical Notes, in each case, prior to the removal
     of the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall register the transfer
     if such transfer is being made by a proposed transferor who has checked the
     box provided for on the form of Note stating, or has otherwise advised the
     Company and the Registrar in writing, that the sale has been made in
     compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed
     the certification provided for on the form of Note stating, or has
     otherwise advised the Company and the Registrar in writing, that it is
     purchasing the Note for its own account or an account with respect to which
     it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is
     a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A and is aware that the sale to it is
     being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received
     such information regarding the Company and the Guarantors as it has
     requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such
     information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its
     foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration
     provided by Rule 144A or (y) an interest in the U.S. Global Notes, the
     transfer of such interest may be effected only through the book entry
     system maintained by the Depositary.

          (ii)    If the proposed transferee is an Agent Member, and the Note to
     be transferred consists of U.S. Physical Notes, upon receipt by the
     Registrar of the documents referred to in paragraph (i) above and
     instructions given in accordance with the Depositary's and the Registrar's
     procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date
     and an increase in the principal amount of U.S. Global Notes in an amount
     equal to the principal amount of the U.S. Physical Notes to be transferred,
     and the Trustee shall cancel the U.S. Physical Notes so transferred.

          (c)     TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS IN THE OFFSHORE GLOBAL NOTES OR
OFFSHORE PHYSICAL NOTES. The following provisions shall apply with respect to
any transfer of interests in Offshore Global Notes or Offshore Physical Notes:

          (i)     prior to the removal of the Private Placement Legend from the
     Offshore Global Notes or Offshore Physical Notes pursuant to Section 2.2,
     the Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless such transfer
     complies with Section 2.8(b) or Section 2.8(d), as the case may be, and

          (ii)    after such removal, the Registrar shall register the transfer
     of any such Note without requiring any additional certification.

          (d)     TRANSFERS TO NON-U.S. PERSONS AT ANY TIME.  The following
provisions shall apply with respect to any transfer of a Note to a Non-U.S.
Person:

          (i)     The Registrar shall register any proposed transfer to any
     Non-U.S. Person if the Note to be transferred is a U.S. Physical Note or an
     interest in U.S. Global Notes, upon receipt of a certificate substantially
     in the form of Exhibit C hereto from the proposed transferor.

                                       17
<Page>

          (ii)    (a) If the proposed transferor is an Agent Member holding a
     beneficial interest in the U.S. Global Notes, upon receipt by the Registrar
     of (x) the documents, if any, required by paragraph (i) and (y)
     instructions in accordance with the Depositary's and the Registrar's
     procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date
     and a decrease in the principal amount of the U.S. Global Notes in an
     amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the U.S.
     Global Notes to be transferred, and (b) if the proposed transferee is an
     Agent Member, upon receipt by the Registrar of instructions given in
     accordance with the Depositary's and the Registrar's procedures, the
     Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase
     in the principal amount of the Offshore Global Notes in an amount equal to
     the principal amount of the U.S. Physical Notes or the U.S. Global Notes,
     as the case may be, to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the
     U.S. Physical Note, if any, so transferred or decrease the amount of the
     U.S. Global Notes.

          (e)     PRIVATE PLACEMENT LEGEND. Upon the transfer, exchange or
replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar
shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the
transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the Private Placement Legend,
the Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend
unless (i) the Private Placement Legend is no longer required by Section 2.2,
(ii) the requested transfer is after the time period referred to in Rule 144(k)
under the Securities Act or (iii) there is delivered to the Registrar an Opinion
of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee to the effect
that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required
in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.

          (f)     GENERAL. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private
Placement Legend, each Holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on
transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement
Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this
Indenture. The Registrar shall not register a transfer of any Note unless such
transfer complies with the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in
this Indenture. In connection with any transfer of Notes, each Holder agrees by
its acceptance of the Notes to furnish the Registrar or the Company such
certifications, legal opinions or other information as either of them may
reasonably require to confirm that such transfer is being made pursuant to an
exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements
of the Securities Act; PROVIDED that the Registrar shall not be required to
determine (but may rely on a determination made by the Company with respect to)
the sufficiency of any such certifications, legal opinions or other information.

          The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other
written communications received pursuant to Section 2.7 or this Section 2.8. The
Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters,
notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving
of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

          Section 2.9      REPLACEMENT NOTES. If a mutilated Note is surrendered
to the Trustee or if the Holder claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or
wrongfully taken, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee
that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall
issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note of like tenor and
principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously

                                       18
<Page>

outstanding; PROVIDED that the requirements of this Section 2.9 are met. If
required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be furnished that
is sufficient in the judgment of both the Trustee and the Company to protect the
Company, the Trustee or any Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a
Note is replaced. The Company may charge such Holder for its expenses and the
expenses of the Trustee in replacing a Note. In case any such mutilated, lost,
destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and
payable, the Company in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a
new Note in replacement thereof.

          Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and
shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

          Section 2.10     OUTSTANDING NOTES. Notes outstanding at any time are
all Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled
by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this
Section 2.10 as not outstanding.

          If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.9, it ceases to be
outstanding unless and until the Trustee and the Company receive proof
satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a BONA FIDE purchaser.

          If the Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the
Company) holds on the maturity date money sufficient to pay Notes payable on
that date, then on and after that date such Notes cease to be outstanding and
interest on them shall cease to accrue.

          A Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or one of
its Affiliates holds such Note, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in determining whether
the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding Notes have
given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver
hereunder, Notes owned by the Company or the Guarantors or any Affiliate of the
Company or any Guarantor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding,
except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying
upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or
waiver, only Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
knowledge to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been
pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes
to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right so to act with respect to
such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any Guarantor or any
Affiliate of the Company or any Guarantor.

          Section 2.11     TEMPORARY NOTES. Until definitive Notes are ready for
delivery, the Company may prepare and execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of
definitive Notes but may have insertions, substitutions, omissions and other
variations determined to be appropriate by the Officers executing the temporary
Notes, as evidenced by their execution of such temporary Notes. If temporary
Notes are issued, the Company will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary
Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary
Notes at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose
pursuant to Section 4.6 without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes the Company

                                       19
<Page>

shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized
denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall be entitled to the
same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

          Section 2.12     CANCELLATION. The Company at any time may deliver to
the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered
hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may
deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated
hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold. The Registrar and the
Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for
transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Notes surrendered
for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and shall dispose of them in
accordance with its normal procedure.

          Section 2.13     CUSIP NUMBERS. The Company in issuing the Notes may
use "CUSIP", "CINS" or "ISIN" numbers (if then generally in use), and the
Company and the Trustee shall use CUSIP, CINS or ISIN numbers, as the case may
be, in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; PROVIDED
that any such notice shall state that no representation is made as to the
correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in
any notice of redemption or exchange and that reliance may be placed only on the
other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Company shall promptly
notify the Trustee of any change in "CUSIP", "CINS" or "ISIN" numbers for the
Notes.

          Section 2.14     DEFAULTED INTEREST. If the Company defaults in a
payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay, or shall deposit with the Paying
Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay, the defaulted
interest, plus (to the extent lawful) any interest payable on the defaulted
interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. A
special record date, as used in this Section 2.14 with respect to the payment of
any defaulted interest, shall mean the 15th day next preceding the date fixed by
the Company for the payment of defaulted interest, whether or not such day is a
Business Day. At least 15 days before the subsequent special record date, the
Company shall mail to each Holder and to the Trustee a notice that states the
subsequent special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted
interest to be paid.

          Section 2.15     ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL NOTES. The Company may issue
Additional Notes under this Indenture. The Notes issued on the Closing Date and
any Additional Notes subsequently issued shall be treated as a single class for
all purposes under this Indenture.

          Section 2.16     PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. Prior to due presentment of a
Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of
the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is
registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of
the Principal Amount of the Security or the payment of any Redemption Price, in
respect thereof, and accrued interest and Additional Interest thereon, for all
purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the
Company, the Trustee and any of their respective agents shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

                                   ARTICLE III

                               OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

          Section 3.1      RIGHT TO REDEEM; NOTICES TO TRUSTEE. (a) OPTIONAL
REDEMPTION. The Notes will be redeemable, at the option of the Company, in whole
at any time or in part from time to time prior to their Stated Maturity, on at
least 30 days' but no more than 60 days' prior written notice mailed to the
Holders of the Notes to be redeemed in accordance with Section 3.3. In addition,
notice of any such optional redemption will be published as described in Section
3.3 below no later than 30 days prior to the redemption date. The redemption
price of the Notes will be equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal
amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (2) the sum, as determined by the
Quotation Agent, of the present values of the principal amount of the Notes and
the remaining scheduled payments of interest on such Notes to be redeemed
(exclusive of interest accrued to the redemption date), in each case discounted
from their respective scheduled payment dates to the redemption date on a
semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at
the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid
interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the redemption date. The
Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the Quotation Agent's determination of the
redemption price of the Notes.

          (b)     NOTICE TO TRUSTEE. If the Company elects to redeem Notes
pursuant to this Section 3.1, it shall notify the Trustee, on at least 65 days'
prior written notice, of the Redemption Date, the Principal Amount of Notes to
be redeemed and the Redemption Price.

          If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued
interest on the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption
date is deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent on or before the redemption
date in accordance with the provisions of this Article III, then on and after
the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (or such
portion thereof) called for redemption. If any redemption date is not a Business
Day, the Company will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day without
any interest or other payment due to the delay.

          Section 3.2      PARTIAL REDEMPTION. If the Company redeems the Notes
in part pursuant to this Article III, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be
redeemed on a pro rata basis or by lot or by such other method that the Trustee
in its sole discretion deems fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the
selection at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date
from outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. No Notes of $1,000
or less will be redeemed in part. Notes and portions of them the Trustee selects
shall be in principal amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000.
Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also
apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the
Company promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes to be redeemed.

          Section 3.3      NOTICE OF OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. If the Company elects
to exercise its right to redeem all or some of the Notes pursuant to this
Article Three, the Company or the Trustee shall mail a notice of such redemption
to each Holder of a Note that is to be redeemed not less than 30 days and not
more than 60 days before the Redemption Date. In

                                       21
<Page>

connection with providing notice pursuant to this Section 3.3, the Company shall
issue a press release and publish a notice containing information regarding the
redemption of the Notes in a newspaper in general circulation in The City of New
York or shall publish such information on the Company's web site or through
other such public media as in general use at the time.

          Section 3.4      NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. The Company shall mail the
notice of redemption required under Section 3.3 by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed.

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

          (1) the Redemption Date;

          (2) the Redemption Price;

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

          (4) if fewer than all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the
     certificate numbers, if any, and Principal Amounts of the particular Notes
     to be redeemed;

          (5) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such
     Redemption Price, interest on Notes called for redemption will cease to
     accrue on and after the Redemption Date; and

          (6) the CUSIP number of the Notes.

          At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company's name and at the Company's expense, PROVIDED that the
Company makes such request at least three Business Days prior to the date by
which such notice of redemption must be given to Holders in accordance with this
Section 3.4.

          Section 3.5      EFFECT OF NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Once notice of
redemption is given, Notes 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 Notes shall be paid at the Redemption Price stated in
the notice, together with accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including
the Redemption Date and Additional Interest, if any, thereon.

          Section 3.6      DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE. Prior to 10:00 a.m.
(New York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the
Paying Agent (or if the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of
them is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to
pay the Redemption Price of all Notes to be redeemed on that date, together with
accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the Redemption Date and
Additional Interest, if any, thereon, other than Notes or portions of Notes
called for redemption that on or prior thereto have been delivered by the
Company to the Trustee for cancellation.

          Section 3.7      NOTES REDEEMED IN PART. Upon surrender of a Note that
is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute, the Guarantors shall endorse and
the Trustee shall

                                       22
<Page>

authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Note in an authorized denomination
equal in Principal Amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                    COVENANTS

          Section 4.1      PAYMENT OF NOTES. The Company shall promptly make all
payments in respect of the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the
Notes or pursuant to this Indenture. Any amounts to be given to the Trustee or
Paying Agent shall be deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent by 10:00 a.m.
(New York City time) by the Company. Interest installments, Principal Amount,
premium, if any, Redemption Price, Additional Interest, if any, and interest, if
any, due on overdue amounts shall be considered paid on the applicable date due
if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this
Indenture, money sufficient to pay all such amounts then due.

          The Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay interest on
overdue amounts at the rate per annum set forth in paragraph 1 of the Notes,
compounded semiannually, which interest shall accrue from the date such overdue
amount was originally due to the date payment of such amount, including interest
thereon, has been made or duly provided for. All such interest shall be payable
on demand. The accrual of such interest on overdue amounts shall be in addition
to the continued accrual of interest on the Notes.

          Section 4.2      SEC AND OTHER REPORTS. The Company shall file with
the Trustee, within 15 days after it files such annual and quarterly reports,
information, documents and other reports with the SEC, copies of its annual
report and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such
portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations
prescribe) which the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. In the event the Company is at any time
no longer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, it shall continue to provide the Trustee with reports containing
substantially the same information as would have been required to be filed with
the SEC had the Company continued to have been subject to such reporting
requirements. In such event, such reports shall be provided at the times the
Company would have been required to provide reports had it continued to have
been subject to such reporting requirements.

          In addition, the Company 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 constructive notice of any information contained therein or
determinable from information contained therein, including the Company's
compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is
entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates).

                                       23

          Section 4.3      COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATE. The Company and the
Guarantors shall deliver to the Trustee within 90 days after the end of each
fiscal year of the Company (beginning with the fiscal year ending on February
28, 2004) an Officers' Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge
of the signers thereof the Company or the Guarantors are in default in the
performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of
this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice
provided hereunder) and if the Company or the Guarantors shall be in default,
specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may
have knowledge.

          Section 4.4      FURTHER INSTRUMENTS AND ACTS. Upon request of the
Trustee, the Company and the Guarantors will execute and deliver such further
instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to
carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture.

          Section 4.5      EXISTENCE. Subject to Article V of this Indenture,
the Company and the Guarantors will do or cause to be done all things necessary
to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and the existence of
each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the respective
organizational documents of the Company and each Restricted Subsidiary and the
rights (whether pursuant to charter, partnership certificate, agreement, statute
or otherwise), licenses and franchises of the Company and each Restricted
Subsidiary; PROVIDED that the Company and the Guarantors shall not be required
to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the existence of any
Restricted Subsidiary, if the maintenance or preservation thereof is no longer
desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

          Section 4.6      MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY. The Company will
maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency
of the Trustee, Registrar and Paying Agent where Notes may be presented or
surrendered for payment, where Notes may be surrendered for registration of
transfer, exchange or redemption and where notices and demands to or upon the
Company or any Guarantor in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be
served. The Corporate Trust Office shall initially be such office or agency for
all of the aforesaid purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to
the Trustee of the location, and of any change in the location, of any such
office or agency (other than a change in the location of the office of the
Trustee). If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required
office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof,
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the
address of the Trustee set forth in Section 11.2.

          The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other
offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or
all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the
Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of
Manhattan, the City of New York, for such purposes.

          Section 4.7      DELIVERY OF CERTAIN INFORMATION. At any time when the
Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, upon the
request of a Holder or any beneficial owner of Notes, the Company will promptly
furnish or cause to be furnished

                                       24
<Page>

Rule 144A Information (as defined below) to such Holder or any beneficial owner
of Notes, or to a prospective purchaser of any such security designated by any
such Holder, as the case may be, to the extent required to permit compliance by
such Holder or beneficial owner with Rule 144A under the Securities Act in
connection with the resale of any such security. "Rule 144A Information" shall
be such information as is specified pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the
Securities Act or any successor provisions. Whether a person is a beneficial
owner shall be determined by the Company to the Company's reasonable
satisfaction.

          Section 4.8      ADDITIONAL INTEREST. If at any time Additional
Interest becomes payable by the Company and the Guarantors pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Trustee
a certificate to that effect and stating (i) the amount of such Additional
Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is
payable pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. Unless and
until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives such a certificate, the
Trustee may assume without inquiry that no Additional Interest is payable. If
the Company or any Guarantor has paid Additional Interest directly to the
persons entitled to such amounts, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a
certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment.

          Section 4.9      LIMITATIONS ON LIENS.

          The Company will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, incur, issue, assume or guarantee any Debt secured by a Mortgage
without providing that the Notes shall be secured equally and ratably with (or
prior to) such secured Debt, so long as such secured Debt shall be so secured,
unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all Debt secured by
a Mortgage plus all Attributable Debt of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries in respect of Sale and Leaseback Transactions (other than such Sale
and Leaseback Transactions the net proceeds of which are applied to retire Notes
or Funded Debt or acquire assets in the ordinary course of business under
Section 4.10(ii)) would not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of Consolidated Assets;
provided, however, that this section shall not apply to, and there shall be
excluded from any computation of all Debt secured by a Mortgage under this
section, Debt secured by:

          (i)     Mortgages existing on the execution date of this Indenture;

          (ii)    Mortgages of any Person existing at the time such Person
     becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or obligor under this Indenture and that
     are not incurred in contemplation of either such event;

          (iii)   Mortgages in favor of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
     by a Restricted Subsidiary;

          (iv)    Mortgages (including the assignment of moneys due or to become
     due thereon) in favor of the United States of America, any state thereof or
     any foreign government, or any agency, department or other instrumentality
     thereof, to secure progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any
     contract or provision of any statute;

          (v)     Mortgages (A) existing at the time of the acquisition
     (including acquisition through merger or consolidation) of the Real
     Property, shares of stock (or other interests)

                                       25

     or Debt subject to such Mortgage that are not incurred in contemplation of
     any such events or (B) granted to secure (1) the payment of all or any part
     of the purchase price, construction cost or development cost of the Real
     Property, shares of stock (or other interests) or Debt subject to such
     Mortgage or (2) any Debt incurred for the purpose of financing all or any
     part of the purchase price or construction cost or development cost of the
     Real Property, shares of stock (or other interests) or Debt subject to such
     Mortgage prior to, at the time of or within 360 days after the acquisition
     or the completion of any such construction or development thereof;

          (vi)    Mortgages incurred or deposits made to secure the performance
     of tenders, statutory obligations, surety bonds, bids, performance bonds
     and other similar obligations;

          (vii)   Mortgages incidental to the normal conduct of the business of
     the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or the ownership of their
     properties or assets and that are not incurred in connection with the
     incurrence of Debt and that do not in the aggregate materially impair the
     use of such property or assets in the operation of the business of the
     Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the value of such
     property or assets for the purpose of such business;

          (viii)  Mortgages created by or resulting from any litigation or legal
     proceeding that is effectively stayed while the underlying claims are being
     contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to
     which the Company or such Subsidiary has established adequate reserves in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

          (ix)    any extension, renewal or refinancing (or successive
     extensions, renewals or refinancings), as a whole or in part, of any
     Mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) to (viii), inclusive;
     provided, however, that (A) such extension, renewal or refinancing Mortgage
     shall be limited to all or a part of the same Real Property, shares of
     stock (or other interests) or Debt that secured the Mortgage extended,
     renewed or refinanced (plus improvements on such Real Property) and (B) the
     principal amount of Debt secured by such Mortgage is not increased to an
     amount exceeding the sum of the principal amount of the Debt immediately
     prior to such extension, renewal or refinancing and any premium, accrued
     and unpaid interest and capitalized interest payable on the previous
     amount; and

          (x)     Mortgages for taxes, assessments, governmental charges or
     levies in respect of taxes either not yet due and payable or that are being
     contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and with respect to
     which the Company or such Subsidiary has established adequate reserves in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

          Section 4.10     LIMITATION ON SALES AND LEASEBACKS.

          The Company will not itself, and it will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, enter into a Sale and Leaseback Transaction unless either:

                                       26
<Page>

          (i)     the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary could create Debt
     secured by a Mortgage on the Real Property to be leased back in an amount
     equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale and Leaseback
     Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Securities pursuant to
     Section 4.9, or

          (ii)    the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary within 180 days
     after the sale or transfer shall have been made by the Company or such
     Restricted Subsidiary, applies an amount equal to the net proceeds of the
     sale of the Real Property sold and leased back pursuant to such Sale and
     Leaseback Transaction to (A) the retirement of Notes or Funded Debt of the
     Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and/or (B) the acquisition of
     assets (other than current assets) to be used in the ordinary course of
     business of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be.

          Section 4.11     NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. In the event that any Officer
becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Company shall promptly
deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate specifying such Default or Event
of Default.

                                    ARTICLE V

                              SUCCESSOR CORPORATION

          Section 5.1      WHEN COMPANY OR ANY GUARANTOR MAY MERGE OR TRANSFER
ASSETS. (a) Neither the Company or any of the Guarantors shall consolidate with
or merge with or into any other person or convey, transfer or lease its
properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any other person, unless:

          (i)     the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be
     the (1) continuing corporation or (2) the person (if other than the Company
     or such Guarantor, as the case may be) formed by such consolidation or into
     which the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, is merged or the
     person which acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease the properties and
     assets of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, substantially
     as an entirety (A) shall be organized and validly existing under the laws
     of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia and
     (B) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed
     and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all of
     the obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Securities and
     this Indenture;

          (ii)    immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default
     or Event of Default would occur or be continuing; and

          (iii)   the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, shall have
     delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of
     Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer
     or lease and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with
     such transaction, such supplemental indenture, comply with this Article 5,
     that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such
     transaction have been satisfied and the supplemental indenture will
     constitute the legally

                                       27
<Page>

     valid and binding obligation of such successor person, enforceable against
     such person in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy,
     insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other laws relating to or
     affecting creditors' rights and by general principles of equity.

          For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment,
sale or otherwise) of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries
(other than to the Company, any Guarantor or another Subsidiary), which, if such
assets were owned by the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, would
constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company
or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all
or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company or such
Guarantor, as the case may be.

          The successor person formed by such consolidation or into which the
Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, is merged or the successor person
to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be
substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company or such
Guarantor, as the case may be, under this Indenture with the same effect as if
such successor had been named as the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may
be, herein; and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the Company or such
Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be discharged from all obligations and
covenants under this Indenture and the Securities. Subject to Section 9.6, the
Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the successor person shall enter into a
supplemental indenture to evidence the succession and substitution of such
successor person and such discharge and release of the Company.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                              DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

          Section 6.1      EVENTS OF DEFAULT. An "Event of Default" occurs if:

          (a) the Company defaults in the payment of interest or Additional
Interest, if any, payable on any Note when the same becomes due and payable and
such default continues for a period of 30 days;

          (b) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal amount of, or
premium, if any, on Notes when the same becomes due and payable, whether at
Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon declaration, or otherwise;

          (c) the Company or any Guarantor fails to comply with any of its
agreements in the Securities or this Indenture (other than those referred to in
clauses (a) and (b) above) and such failure continues for 90 days after receipt
by the Company of a Notice of Default;

          (d) an event of default, as defined in any indenture or instrument
evidencing or under which the Company or any Guarantor, on the date any
determination shall be made under this clause (d), shall have outstanding at
least $30,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Debt for borrowed money (other
than Non-Recourse Debt), shall happen and be continuing and such event of
default shall involve (x) the failure to pay the principal of or premium, if
any, on such

                                       28
<Page>

Debt (or any part thereof) on the final maturity date thereof after the
expiration of any applicable grace period with respect thereto, or (y) such Debt
shall have been accelerated so that the same shall be or become due and payable
prior to the date on which the same would otherwise have become due and payable,
and such acceleration shall not be rescinded or annulled within 10 Business Days
after notice thereof shall have been given to the Company or such Guarantor, as
applicable, by the Trustee (if such event be known to it) or to the Company or
such Guarantor, as applicable, and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of all of the Securities at the time outstanding;
PROVIDED that, if such event of default under such indenture or instrument shall
be remedied or cured by the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, or waived
by the requisite holders of such Debt, then the Event of Default by reason
thereof shall be deemed likewise to have been thereupon remedied, cured or
waived without further action upon the part of either the Trustee or any of the
Securityholders, and PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that subject to the provisions
of Sections 7.1 and 7.2, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any
such event of default unless written notice thereof shall have been given to the
Trustee by the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, by the holder or an
agent of the holder of any such Debt, by the trustee then acting under any
indenture or other instrument under which such default shall have occurred, or
by the Holders of not less than 25% in the aggregate principal amount of the
Securities at the time outstanding;

          (e) any Guarantee shall for any reason cease to be, or shall for any
reason be asserted in writing by such Guarantor or the Company not to be in full
force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the
extent contemplated by this Indenture;

          (f) a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree
or order for relief in respect of the Company or any Guarantor in an involuntary
case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or
hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian,
trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or any Guarantor or
for any substantial part of its property or ordering the winding up or
liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in
effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

          (g) the Company or any Guarantor shall commence a voluntary case under
any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in
effect, or consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case
under any such law, or consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a
receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee or sequestrator (or similar
official) of the Company or any Guarantor or for any substantial part of its
property or make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors.

          A Default under clause (c) or (d) above is not an Event of Default
until the Trustee notifies the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in
aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding notify the
Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, of the Default and neither the Company
nor any of the Guarantors cures such Default (and such Default is not waived)
within the time specified in clause (c) or (d) above after actual receipt of
such notice. Any such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be
remedied and state that such notice is a "Notice of Default."

                                       29
<Page>

          The Company or any Guarantor shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30
days after it becomes aware of the occurrence thereof, written notice of any
event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would
become an Event of Default under clauses (c) or (d) above, its status and what
action the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, is taking or proposes
to take with respect thereto.

          Section 6.2      ACCELERATION. If an Event of Default (other than an
Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(f) or (g)) occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee by notice to the Company and the Guarantors, or the Holders of at
least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding by
notice to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, may declare the Principal
Amount of all the Notes plus all accrued interest thereon through the date of
declaration to be immediately due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such
Principal Amount plus all accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any,
shall become and be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default
specified in Section 6.1(f) or (g) occurs and is continuing, the Principal
Amount of all the Notes plus all accrued interest and Additional Interest, if
any, thereon shall 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 aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the time
outstanding, by notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other
Securityholder), 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 waived except nonpayment of the Principal
Amount plus all accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, that have
become due solely as a result of acceleration and if all amounts due to the
Trustee under Section 7.7 have been paid. No such rescission shall affect any
subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

          Section 6.3      OTHER REMEDIES. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment
of the Principal Amount of all the Notes plus all accrued interest and
Additional Interest, if any, thereon or to enforce the performance of any
provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

          The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if the Trustee does not
possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of the Notes 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 to the
extent permitted by law.

          Section 6.4      WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. The Holders of a majority
in aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, by notice to
the Trustee (and without notice to any other Securityholder), may waive an
existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences except (a) an Event of
Default described in Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b) or (b) a Default in respect of a
provision that under Section 9.2 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. This Section 6.4 shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)1(B) of the
TIA and such Section 316(a)1(B) is hereby expressly excluded from this
Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.

                                       30
<Page>

          Section 6.5      WAIVER OF CERTAIN COVENANTS. The Company may omit in
any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in
Sections 4.5, 4.9 and 4.10, if before the time for such compliance the Holders
of at least a majority in principal amount of the applicable outstanding
Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders either waive such
compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or
condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or
condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall
become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee
in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and
effect.

          Section 6.6      CONTROL BY MAJORITY. The Holders of a majority in
aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding 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 that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly
prejudicial to the rights of other Securityholders or would involve the Trustee
in personal liability unless the Trustee is offered indemnity satisfactory to
it. This Section 6.6 shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)1(A) of the TIA and such
Section 316(a)1(A) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as
permitted by the TIA.

          Section 6.7      LIMITATION ON SUITS. A Securityholder may not pursue
any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless:

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

          (b) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the
     Notes at the time outstanding make a written request to the Trustee to
     pursue the remedy;

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

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

          (e) the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the
     Notes at the time outstanding do not give the Trustee a direction
     inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.

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

          Section 6.8      RIGHTS OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PAYMENT. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive
payment of interest installments, the Principal Amount, Redemption Price or
Additional Interest, if any, or interest, if any, due on overdue amounts in
respect of the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates
expressed in the Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such

                                       31
<Page>

payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected
adversely without the consent of such Holder.

          Section 6.9      COLLECTION SUIT BY TRUSTEE. If an Event of Default
described in Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may
recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the
Company or any Guarantor for the whole amount owing with respect to the Note and
the amounts provided for in Section 7.7.

          Section 6.10     TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM. In case of the
pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the
Notes or the property of the Company, such Guarantor or of such other obligor or
their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether interest installments, the
Principal Amount, Redemption Price, Additional Interest, if any, or interest, if
any, due on overdue amounts in respect of the Notes shall then be due and
payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of
whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company or such Guarantor
for the payment of any such amount) shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

          (a) to file and prove a claim for any accrued and unpaid interest
     installments, the whole amount of the Principal Amount, Redemption Price,
     Additional Interest or interest, if any, due on overdue amounts in respect
     of the Notes, and to file such other papers or documents as may be
     necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee
     (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
     disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel or any
     other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7) and of the Holders allowed
     in such judicial proceeding; and

          (b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
     deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Holder to make such 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 the
Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7.

          Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities
or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in
respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

          Section 6.11     PRIORITIES. If the Trustee collects any money
pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

          FIRST:  to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.7;

                                       32
<Page>

          SECOND: to Securityholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for
     any accrued and unpaid interest installments, the Principal Amount,
     Redemption Price, Additional Interest, if any, or interest, if any, due on
     overdue amounts in respect of the Notes, as the case may be, ratably,
     without preference or priority of any kind, according to such amounts due
     and payable on the Notes; and

          THIRD:  the balance, if any, to the Company or, to the extent the
     Trustee collects any amount pursuant to the Guarantees from any Guarantor,
     to such Guarantor, as applicable.

          The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to
Securityholders pursuant to this Section 6.11. At least 15 days before such
record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder, the Company and any
Guarantor from whom the Trustee collected any money pursuant to this Article VI
a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be
paid.

          Section 6.12     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 (other than the Trustee)
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 and
expenses, 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 6.12 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder
pursuant to Section 6.8 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate
Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding. This Section 6.12 shall
be in lieu of Section 315(e) of the TIA and such Section 315(e) is hereby
expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.

          Section 6.13     WAIVER OF STAY, EXTENSION OR USURY LAWS. Each of the
Company and the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
that it will 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 or any
usury or other law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force,
which would prohibit or forgive the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may
be, from paying all or any portion of any interest installment, the Principal
Amount, Redemption Price, Additional Interest or interest, if any, due on
overdue amounts in respect of the Notes, as contemplated herein, or which may
affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and
such Guarantor (in each case, to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby
expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it
will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to
the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law had been enacted.

                                     TRUSTEE

          Section 7.1      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 its
exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use 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 need perform only those duties that are specifically
     set forth in this Indenture and no others; 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, but in
     case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are
     specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, 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 or other facts stated
     therein. This Section 7.1(b) shall be in lieu of Section 3.15(a) of the TIA
     and such Section 315(a) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture,
     as permitted by the TIA.

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

          (1) this paragraph (c) does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of
     this Section 7.1;

          (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 6.6.

Subparagraphs (c)(1), (2) and (3) shall be in lieu of Sections 315(d)(1),
315(d)(2) and 315(d)(3) of the TIA and such Sections 315(d)(1), 315(d)(2) and
315(d)(3) are hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the
TIA.

          (d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the
Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (e) of this Section 7.1.

          (e) The Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right
or power or extend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss,
liability or expense.

                                       34
<Page>

          (f) Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee
(acting in any capacity hereunder) shall be under no liability for interest on
any money received by it hereunder unless otherwise agreed in writing with the
Company.

          Section 7.2      RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.  Subject to its duties and
responsibilities under the TIA,

          (a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting
     or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
     instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
     bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
     document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented
     by the proper party or parties;

          (b) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall
     deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking,
     suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other
     evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad
     faith on its part, conclusively rely upon an Officers' Certificate;

          (c) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
     perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
     attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
     negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by
     it hereunder;

          (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or
     omitted to be taken by it in good faith which it believes to be authorized
     or within its rights or powers conferred under this Indenture;

          (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel selected by it and any advice
     or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and
     protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it
     hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of
     Counsel.

          (f) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
     rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or
     direction of any of the Holders, pursuant to the provisions of this
     Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security
     or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities
     which may be incurred therein or thereby.

          (g) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be
     sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order and any
     resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a
     Board Resolution;

          (h) the Trustee shall 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

                                       35
<Page>

     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 shall be entitled to examine the books, records and
     premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole
     cost of the Company 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 its right to be indemnified, are 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;
     and

          (k) the Trustee may request that the Company or any Guarantor deliver
     an Officers' Certificate 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 7.3      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 Company or its Affiliates with the same rights
it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar or
co-registrar may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply
with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

          Section 7.4      TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER. The Trustee makes no
representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the
Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company's use or application of
the proceeds from the Securities, it shall not be responsible for any statement
in the registration statement for the Securities under the Securities Act or in
any offering document for the Securities, this Indenture or the Securities
(other than its certificate of authentication), or the determination as to which
beneficial owners are entitled to receive any notices hereunder.

          Section 7.5      NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. If a Default occurs and if it is
known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall give to each Securityholder notice of
the Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, within 15 days after it
is known to the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived
before the giving of such notice. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except
in the case of a Default described in Sections 6.1(a) and 6.1(b), 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. The second sentence of this Section 7.5 shall be
in lieu of the proviso to Section 315(b) of the TIA and such proviso is hereby
expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.

                                       36
<Page>

          Section 7.6      REPORTS BY TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS. Within 60 days after
each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, the
Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder a brief report dated as of such May 15
that complies with TIA Section 313(a), if required by such 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 securities exchange, if any, on which the
Securities are listed. The Company agrees to notify the Trustee promptly
whenever the Securities become listed on any securities exchange and of any
delisting thereof.

          Section 7.7      COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY. The Company agrees:

          (a) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as the
     Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing for all
     services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited
     (to the extent permitted by law) by any provision of law in regard to the
     compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

          (b) to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable
     out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the
     Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the
     reasonable compensation and the expenses, advances and disbursements of its
     agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as
     may be attributable to its negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; and

          (c) to indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and their
     agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any and all loss, damage,
     claim, liability, cost or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and
     taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income
     of the Trustee)) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part,
     arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of
     this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against
     any claim (whether asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other
     Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any
     of its powers or duties hereunder.

          To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section 7.7, the
Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held
or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay interest
installments, the Principal Amount, Redemption Price, Additional Interest or
interest, if any, due on overdue amounts, as the case may be, in respect of any
Notes.

          The Company's payment obligations pursuant to this Section 7.7 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 6.1(f), the expenses, including the reasonable charges and
expenses of its counsel, are intended to constitute expenses of administration
under any bankruptcy law.

          Section 7.8      REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE. A resignation or removal of
the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only
upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this
Section 7.8.

                                       37
<Page>

          The Trustee may resign by so notifying the Company at least 30 days
prior to the date of the proposed resignation. The Holders of a majority in
aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may remove the
Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may
at any time prior to the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default
remove the Trustee by Company Order given at least 30 days prior to the date of
the proposed removal.

          The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

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

          (b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

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

          (d) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

          If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint, by
resolution of its Board of Directors, a successor Trustee.

          A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company satisfactory in form and
substance to the retiring Trustee and the Company. Thereupon the resignation or
removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor
Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and 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 7.7.

          If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the
Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the time
outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction at the expense of
the Company 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.

          The Company shall give notice of any resignation and any removal of
the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Securityholders.
Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of
its Corporate Trust Office.

          Section 7.9      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 (including the administration of the
trust created by this Indenture) to, another corporation, the resulting,
surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the
successor Trustee.

          Section 7.10     ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION. The Trustee shall at
all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Sections 310(a)(1) and 310(b). The
Trustee (or its parent holding company) shall have a combined capital and
surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual
report of condition. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Trustee from
filing with the SEC the application referred to in the penultimate paragraph of
TIA Section 310(b).

          Section 7.11     PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.
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.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                             DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

          Section 8.1      DISCHARGE OF LIABILITY ON SECURITIES; DEFEASANCE.

          (a)     When (i) the Company delivers to the Trustee all outstanding
Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.9) for
cancellation or (ii) all outstanding Securities have become due and payable and
the Company or any Guarantor deposits with the Trustee in trust cash sufficient
to pay all amounts due and owing on all outstanding Securities (other than
Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.9), and if in either case the Company
or any Guarantor pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then this
Indenture shall, subject to Section 7.7, cease to be of further effect and any
Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations under the Guarantee. The
Trustee shall join in the execution of a document prepared by the Company
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on demand of the
Company accompanied by an Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel and at
the cost and expense of the Company.

          (b)     Subject to Sections 8.1(c), 8.3 and 8.6, the Company at any
time may terminate, (i) all its obligations under the Securities and this
Indenture with respect to the Securities ("legal defeasance option") or (ii) its
obligations with respect to the Securities under Sections 4.9 and 4.10and the
related operation of Section 6.1(c) ("covenant defeasance option"). The Company
may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of
its covenant defeasance option.

     If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the
Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Company
exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be
accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.1(c) (except
to the extent covenants or agreements referenced in such Sections remain
applicable).

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

                                       39
<Page>

          (c)     Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Company's
obligations in Sections 2.10, 2.9, 2.5, 2.4, 7.7, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6 shall survive
until the Securities of the defeased series have been paid in full. Thereafter,
the Company's obligations in Sections 7.7, 8.4 and 8.5 shall survive.

          Section 8.2      CONDITIONS OF DEFEASANCE. The Company may exercise
its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option with respect to
the Securities only if:

          (a)     the Company or any Guarantor irrevocably deposits in trust
with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of
principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the Securities to maturity
or redemption, as the case may be;

          (b)     the Company or any Guarantor delivers 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 the principal, premium and interest when
due on all the Debt Securities of such series to maturity or redemption, as the
case may be;

          (c)     123 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 123-day
period no Default specified in Section 6.1(f) or (g) with respect to the Company
occurs which is continuing at the end of the period;

          (d)     no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
on the date of such deposit and after giving effect thereto;

          (e)     the deposit does not constitute a default under any other
agreement binding on the Company;

          (f)     the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not violate the
Investment Company Act of 1940;

          (g)     in the event of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall
have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company
has received from the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date
of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax
law, in either case of the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of
Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of Securities will not recognize income,
gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such legal
defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the
same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such legal
defeasance had not occurred;

          (h)     in the event of the covenant defeasance option, the Company
shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
Holders of Debt Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or
loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and
will be subject to 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;

                                       40
<Page>

          (i)     the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate to the effect that the Securities, if then listed on any securities
exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit; and

          (j)     the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the
defeasance and discharge of the Debt Securities of such series as contemplated
by this Article VIII have been complied with.

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

          Section 8.3      APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY. The Trustee shall hold in
trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this
Article VIII. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S.
Government Obligations through any Paying Agent (including the Company and any
Guarantor acting as the Paying Agent) and in accordance with this Indenture to
the payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the defeased
Securities.

          Section 8.4      REPAYMENT TO THE COMPANY OR GUARANTOR. The Trustee
and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company or any Guarantor, as the case
may be, upon written request any money or securities held by them for the
payment of any amount with respect to the Securities and accrued interest and
Additional Interest, if any, that remains unclaimed for two years, subject to
applicable unclaimed property law. After return to the Company or such
Guarantor, as applicable, Holders entitled to the money or securities must look
to the Company and the Guarantors for payment as general creditors unless an
applicable abandoned property law designates another person and the Trustee and
the Paying Agent shall have no further liability to the Securityholders with
respect to such money or securities for that period commencing after the return
thereof.

          Section 8.5      INDEMNITY FOR U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS. The
Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee and the Holders 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 8.6      REINSTATEMENT. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is
unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this
Article VIII by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or government authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company's and any Guarantors'
obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of the defeased Securities
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to
this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or any Paying Agent is
permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance
with this Article VIII.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                   AMENDMENTS

          Section 9.1      WITHOUT CONSENT OF HOLDERS. The Company, the
Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities without
the consent of any Securityholder, so long as such changes, other than those in
clause (b), do not materially and adversely affect the interests of the
Securityholder:

          (a) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

          (b) to comply with Article V;

          (c) to secure the obligations of the Company under the Securities and
     this Indenture;

          (d) to add to the covenants of the Company or any Guarantor for the
     benefit of the Securityholders or to surrender any right or power conferred
     upon the Company or any Guarantor;

          (e) to make any change necessary for the registration of the
     Securities under the Securities Act or to comply with the TIA, or any
     amendment thereto, or to comply with any requirement of the SEC in
     connection with the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; or

          (f) to add one or more additional Guarantors in respect of the
     Guarantees.

          Section 9.2      WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS. With the written consent of
the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the
Securities at the time outstanding, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee
may amend this Indenture or the Securities. However, without the consent of each
Securityholder affected, an amendment to this Indenture or the Securities may
not:

          (a) change the record or payment dates for interest installments, or
     reduce the rate of interest referred to in paragraph 1 of the Notes, or
     extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;

          (b) change the Stated Maturity of any Note;

          (c) reduce the Principal Amount or Redemption Price of any Note;

          (d) make any Note payable in money or securities other than that
     stated in the Note;

          (e) make any change in Section 6.4, Section 6.5, Section 6.8 or this
     Section 9.2, except to increase any percentage set forth therein; or

                                       42
<Page>

          (f) impair the right to institute suit for enforcement of any payment
     with respect to the Notes; or

          (g) modify the Guarantees in a manner adverse to Holders of the
     Securities.

          It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this
Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it
shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

          After an amendment under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the
Company shall mail to each Holder a notice briefly describing the amendment.

          Section 9.3      COMPLIANCE WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. Every
supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX shall comply with
the TIA.

          Section 9.4      REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS, WAIVERS AND
ACTIONS. Until an amendment, waiver or other action by Holders becomes
effective, a consent thereto by a Holder of a Security hereunder is a continuing
consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of
the Security that evidences the same obligation as the consenting Holder's
Security, even if notation of the consent, waiver or action is not made on the
Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent,
waiver or action as to such Holder's Security or portion of the Security if the
Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment, waiver
or action becomes effective. After an amendment, waiver or action becomes
effective, it shall bind every Securityholder.

          Section 9.5      NOTATION ON OR EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES. Securities
authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Article IX may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a
notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such
supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities so
modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors
of the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed
by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for
outstanding Securities.

          Section 9.6      TRUSTEE TO SIGN SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES. The Trustee
shall sign any supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article IX if
the amendment contained therein does not adversely affect the rights, duties,
liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need
not, sign such supplemental indenture. In signing such supplemental indenture
the Trustee shall receive, and (subject to the provisions of Section 7.1) shall
be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this
Indenture.

          Section 9.7      EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES. Upon the execution
of any supplemental indenture under this Article IX, this Indenture shall be
modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a
part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities
theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound
thereby.

                                    ARTICLE X

                                   GUARANTEES

          Section 10.1     AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE. The Guarantors, jointly and
severally, hereby agree as follows:

          (a) The Guarantors fully and unconditionally guarantee to each Holder
of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its
successors and assigns, regardless of the validity and enforceability of this
Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company under this Indenture or
the Notes, that:

          (1) the interest, Principal Amount, premium, if any, Redemption Price
     and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes will be promptly paid in full
     when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise,
     and interest, if any, due on overdue amounts, on the Notes, to the extent
     lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the
     Trustee thereunder or under this Indenture will be promptly paid or
     performed in full, all in accordance with the terms thereof; and

          (2) in case of any extension of time for payment or renewal of any
     Note or any of such other obligations, that the same will be promptly paid
     in full when due in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal,
     whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Guarantees
would constitute or result in a violation of any applicable fraudulent
conveyance or similar law of any relevant jurisdiction, the liability of the
Guarantors under this Indenture shall be reduced to the maximum amount
permissible under such fraudulent conveyance or similar law.

          Section 10.2     EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF GUARANTEES. (a) To evidence
the Guarantees set forth in this Indenture, the Guarantors hereby agree that a
notation of such Guarantees shall be endorsed by an Officer of each of the
Guarantors on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee after the
date hereof.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantors hereby agree that
the Guarantees set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such
Guarantees.

          (c) The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication
thereof under this Indenture, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantees
set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

          (d) The Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, agree that their
obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, regardless of the validity,
regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any
action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes
with respect to any provisions of the Notes or this Indenture, the recovery of
any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other

                                       44
<Page>

circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or
defense of a guarantor.

          (e) The Guarantors hereby waive diligence, presentment, demand of
payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy
of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company,
protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that the Guarantees
made pursuant to this Indenture will not be discharged except by complete
performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

          (f) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise
to return to the Company or the Guarantors, or any custodian, trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or
the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, the
Guarantees made pursuant to this Indenture, to the extent theretofore
discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

          (g) The Guarantors agree that they shall not be entitled to any right
of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations
guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.
The Guarantors further agree that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand,
and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand:

          (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be
     accelerated as provided in Article VI of this Indenture for the purposes of
     the Guarantees made pursuant to this Indenture, notwithstanding any stay,
     injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of
     the obligations guaranteed hereby;

          (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such
     obligations as provided in Article VI of this Indenture, such obligations
     (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by
     the Guarantors for the purpose of the Guarantees made pursuant to this
     Indenture; and

          (3) the Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any
     other non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not
     impair the rights of the Holders or the Trustee under the Guarantees made
     pursuant to this Indenture.

          Section 10.3     NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or
future director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the
Guarantors, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company
or any Guarantor under the Notes, any Guarantees, this Indenture or for any
claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their
creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all
such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for
issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities
under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a
waiver is against public policy.

          Section 10.4     FUTURE GUARANTEES. The Company shall cause each
Subsidiary which becomes a guarantor under the Credit Agreement after the date
of this Indenture to promptly execute and deliver to (a) the Trustee, (i) a
Guarantee substantially in the form of the Supplemental Indenture attached as
Exhibit D hereto pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall fully and
unconditionally guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt
payment of

                                       45
<Page>

the interest, Principal Amount, premium, if any, Redemption Price and Additional
Interest, if any, with respect to the Notes and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the supplemental indenture is a legally binding and valid
obligation of the Subsidiary, enforceable against the Subsidiary in accordance
with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or
other laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights and by general principles
of equity, and (b) the Holders, so long as the Company's and the Guarantor's
obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement remain in effect, an
acknowledgement that such Subsidiary shall become a party to the Registration
Rights Agreement.

          Section 10.5     RELEASE OF GUARANTEES. Notwithstanding anything in
this Article X to the contrary, concurrently with the payment or performance in
full of (i) all amounts due and owing on all outstanding Securities and (ii) all
other obligations of the Company under this Indenture, the Guarantors shall be
released from and relieved from their obligations under this Article X. Upon the
delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the transaction giving rise to the release
of the Guarantees was made by the Company in accordance with the provisions of
this Indenture and the Securities, the Trustee shall execute any documents
reasonably required in order to evidence the release of the Guarantors from
their obligations under the Guarantees. If any of the obligations of the Company
are revived and reinstated after the termination of the Guarantees, then all of
the obligations of the Guarantors under the Guarantees shall be revived and
reinstated as if such Guarantees had not been terminated until such time as all
the amounts due and owing on all outstanding Securities are paid in full, and
each Guarantor shall enter into an amendment to the Guarantees, reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee, evidencing such revival and reinstatement.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

          (a) a statement that each person making such Officers' Certificate or
     Opinion of Counsel has read such covenant or condition;

          (b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or
     investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such

period.

employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability
for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or for any claim based on, in

                           GTECH HOLDINGS CORPORATION


                          [__]% Senior Note due [____]

1.  Principal and Interest.
          The Company will pay the principal of this Note on [________,____].

          The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Note on each Interest Payment Date, as set forth below, at the rate per annum
shown above.

          Interest, and Additional Interest, if any, will be payable
semiannually (to the holders of record of the Notes at the close of business on
the [________] or [________] immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date) on
each Interest Payment Date, commencing [________,____].

          If an exchange offer (the "Exchange Offer") registered under the
Securities Act is not consummated and a shelf registration statement (the "Shelf
Registration Statement") under the Securities Act with respect to resales of the
Notes is not declared effective by the Commission, on or before the date
specified in the Registration Rights Agreement dated [________,____] between the
Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers named therein, the annual
interest rate borne by the Notes shall be increased as specified in the
Registration Rights Agreement, payable in cash semiannually, in arrears, on each
Interest Payment Date, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date after a
Registration Default until the Exchange Offer is consummated or the Shelf
Registration Statement is declared effective. The Holder of this Note is
entitled to the benefits of such Registration Rights Agreement.

          Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from [________,____];
PROVIDED that, if there is no existing default in the payment of interest and
this Note is authenticated between a Regular Record Date referred to on the face
hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from
such Interest Payment Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.

          The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if
any, and interest on overdue installments of interest and Additional Interest,
if any, to the extent lawful, at the interest rate borne by the Securities at
the time such interest accrues.

Additional Interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes as provided
above on each [________] and

reflected in the Security Register at the close of business on the [________] or
[________] immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date), in each case, even
if the Note is cancelled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange
after such record date; PROVIDED that, with respect to the payment of principal,
the Company will make payment to the Holder that surrenders this Note to a
Paying Agent on or after [________,____] and provided further however, that
interest and Additional Interest, if any, payable on the maturity date or on a
date on which Notes are redeemed by the Company in accordance with the
provisions of Article III of the Indenture, shall be paid to the Person to whom
the principal amount of the Notes is payable on such date.

          The Company will pay principal, premium, if any, and as provided
above, interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is
legal tender for payment of public and private debts. However, the Company may
pay principal, premium, if any, and interest by its check payable in such money.
It may mail an interest check to a Holder's registered address (as reflected in
the Security Register). If a payment date is a date other than a Business Day at
a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day
that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

3.  Paying Agent and Registrar.
          Initially, the Trustee will act as authenticating agent, Paying Agent
and Registrar. The Company may change any authenticating agent, Paying Agent or
Registrar without notice, other than notice to the Trustee; PROVIDED that the
Company will maintain at least one Paying Agent in the State of New York, City
of New York, Borough of Manhattan, which shall initially be an office or agency
of the Trustee. The Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of them may
act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar.

4.  Indenture.
          The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of
[________,____] (the "Indenture"), among the Company, the Guarantors and The
Bank of New York, trustee (the "Trustee"). Capitalized terms herein are used as
defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated. The terms of the Notes
include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by

Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.

          The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company.

          The Company may issue additional Notes under the Indenture.

conditions of the Indenture, the Notes are redeemable in whole at any time or in

months) at the Treasury Rate plus [ ] basis points, plus, in each case, accrued
and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

remedied or cured by the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, or waived by
the requisite holders of such Debt, then the Event of Default by reason thereof
shall be deemed likewise to have been thereupon remedied, cured or waived
without further action upon the part of either the Trustee or any of the

Securities at the time outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any
trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any

have if it were not Trustee.

liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of

Dear Sirs:
     This letter relates to U.S. $250,000,000 principal amount of Notes
represented by a Note (the "Legended Note") which bears a legend outlining
restrictions upon transfer of such Legended Note. Pursuant to Section 2.2 of the

we hereby certify that we are (or we will hold such securities on behalf of) a
person outside the United States to whom the Notes could be transferred in
accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S promulgated under the U.S. Securities
Act of 1933. Accordingly, you are hereby requested to exchange the legended
certificate for an unlegended certificate representing an identical principal
amount of Notes, all in the manner provided for in the Indenture.

     You and the Company are entitled to rely upon this letter and are
irrevocably authorized to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any interested
party in any administrative or legal proceedings or official inquiry with

meanings set forth in Regulation S.

Dear Sirs:
     In connection with our proposed sale of U.S.$250,000,000 aggregate

that the transferee was outside the United States;
