         (b) Form of Note. Global Notes shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A attached hereto (including the text referred to in footnote 1
thereto).  Definitive Notes shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A
attached hereto (but without including the text referred to in footnote 1
thereto).  Definitive Notes shall be in denominations of $1,000 and integral
multiples thereof, except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section
2.06(d)(ix) hereof.  Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding
Notes as shall be specified therein, and each shall provide that it shall
represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time
endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes
represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as
appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions.  Any endorsement of a Global
Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the
Trustee or the Note Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, upon having
received written instructions, in accordance with such instructions given by
the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.

         (c) Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 2.01(c) shall only apply to
Global Notes deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for the Depository.
Participants and Indirect Participants shall have no rights under this
Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the
Depository or by the Trustee as the custodian for the Depository or under such
Global Note, and the Depository shall be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and
any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global
Note for all purposes whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the
Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other
authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository
and its Participants or Indirect Participants, the Applicable Procedures or the
operation of customary practices of the Depository governing the exercise of
the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note.
Participants and Indirect Participants may hold beneficial interests in the
Global Note in denominations of $1.00 and integral multiples thereof, provided,
however that each Note or Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of any Note, or pursuant to Section 2.10 or Section 3.06 hereof, shall
be issued in the denominations required by Section 2.06(d)(ix) hereof.

         (d) Certificated Securities. The Issuer may initially issue the Notes
as Definitive Notes. However, the initial issuance of Definitive Notes does not
preclude the issuance of Global Notes upon the deposit of such Definitive Notes
with the Trustee, as custodian for the Depository. If at any time the
Depository notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as
Depository or if at any time the Depository shall no longer be eligible under
this Section 2.01, the Issuer shall appoint a successor Depository. If a
successor Depository is not appointed by the Issuer within ninety (90) days
after the Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility,
the Issuer's election pursuant to Section 2.02 that the Notes be represented by
Global Notes shall no longer be effective and the Issuer will execute, and the
Trustee, upon receipt of written order signed by an Officer of the Issuer for
the authentication and delivery of Definitive Notes, will authenticate and
deliver Definitive Notes, in authorized denominations, in an aggregate
principal amount and like terms and tenor equal to the principal amount of the
Global Notes in exchange for such Global Notes.

                                     -22-

         The Issuer may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that
Notes shall no longer be represented by such Global Notes. In such event, the
Issuer will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer order for the
authentication and delivery of definitive Notes of the same terms and tenor,
will authenticate and deliver Definitive Notes, in authorized denominations, and
in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global
Notes in exchange for such Global Notes.

         If specified by the Issuer, pursuant to this Section 2.01 with respect
to Global Notes, the Depository may surrender Global Notes in exchange in whole
or in part for Definitive Notes of like terms and tenor on such terms as are
acceptable to the Issuer and such Depository. Thereupon, the Issuer shall
execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer order for the authentication
and delivery of Definitive Notes, shall authenticate and deliver, without
service charge to the Holders:

         (i) to each Person specified by such Depository a new Definitive Note
of the same tenor, in authorized denominations, in an aggregate principal
amount equal to and in exchange for such Person's beneficial interest in the
Global Note; and

         (ii) to such Depository a new Global Note in a denomination equal to
the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Global
Note and the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive Notes delivered to
Holders pursuant to clause (i) above.

         Upon the exchange of a Global Note for Definitive Notes, such Global
Note shall be cancelled by the Trustee or an agent of the Issuer or the Trustee.
Definitive Notes in exchange for a Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.01(d)
shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the
Depository, pursuant to instructions from its Participants or otherwise, shall
instruct the Trustee or an agent of the Issuer or the Trustee in writing. The
Trustee or such agent shall deliver such Note to or as directed by the Persons
in whose names such Notes are so registered or to the Depository.

SECTION 2.02.              EXECUTION AND AUTHENTICATION.

         An Officer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile
signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that
office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be
valid.

         A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature
of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has
been authenticated under this Indenture.

         The Trustee shall, upon a written order of the Issuer signed by an
Officer thereof, authenticate Notes for original issue up to the aggregate
principal amount stated in paragraph 4 of the Notes. Such order shall specify
the principal amount of the Notes and the date on which the Notes are to be
authenticated.

         The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable
to the Issuer 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

                                     -23-

<PAGE>

by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal
with the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer.

SECTION 2.03.              REGISTRAR AND PAYING AGENT.

         The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be
presented for registration of transfer or for exchange ("Registrar") and an
office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment ("Paying Agent"). The
Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange.
The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional
paying agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term
"Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent. The Issuer may change any
Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer shall notify
the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this
Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as
Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of
its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

         The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") to
act as Depository with respect to the Global Notes.

         The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and
Paying Agent and to act as Note Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

SECTION 2.04.              PAYING AGENT TO HOLD MONEY IN TRUST.

         Not later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on each due date of the
principal or interest on any of the Notes, the Issuer shall deposit with the
Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay such
principal or interest so becoming due. The Issuer shall require the Paying Agent
other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in
trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying
Agent for the payment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes, and shall
notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment.
While any such default continues, the Trustee may require the Paying Agent to
pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require the
Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to
the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall
have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as
Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the
benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy
or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as
Paying Agent for the Notes.

SECTION 2.05.              HOLDER LISTS.

         The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably
practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of
all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA ss. 312(a). If the Trustee is
not the Registrar, the Issuer and/or the Subsidiary Guarantors shall furnish to
the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and
at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form
and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and
addresses of the Holders and the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall
otherwise comply with TIA ss. 312(a).

                                     -24-

SECTION 2.06.              TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

         (a) When Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to
register the transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of
Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make
the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met; provided,
however, that any Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall
be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder
thereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing. To permit registrations
of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon the Issuer's order or at
the Registrar's request.

         (b) Global Note Legend.  Each Global Note shall bear a legend in
substantially the following form:

"THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITORY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE
GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL
OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
EXCEPT THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED
PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06 OF THE INDENTURE, (II) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE
EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06(A) OF THE INDENTURE,
(III) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT
TO SECTION 2.11 OF THE INDENTURE AND (IV) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO
A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITORY WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE ISSUER."

         (c) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all
beneficial interests in Global Notes have been exchanged for Definitive Notes,
redeemed, repurchased or cancelled, all Global Notes shall be returned to or
retained and cancelled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At
any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note
is exchanged for Definitive Notes, redeemed, repurchased or cancelled, the
principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced
accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee
or the Note Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such
reduction.

         (d) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

                  (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges,
the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and
Global Notes upon receipt of a written order signed by an Officer of the Issuer
or at the Registrar's written request.

                  (ii) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a
beneficial interest in a Global Note or a Holder for any registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Issuer 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 similar governmental charge
payable upon exchange or transfer solely pursuant to Sections 3.07, 3.09, 4.10,
4.15 and 9.05 hereto).

                                     -25-

<PAGE>

                  (iii)  The Registrar shall not be required to register the
transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part,
except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

                  (iv)   All Definitive Notes and Global Notes issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of Definitive Notes or Global Notes shall
be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled
to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Definitive Notes or Global
Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

                  (v)    The Issuer shall not be required: to issue, to register
the transfer of or to exchange Notes during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before the day of mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes
under Section 3.03 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of such
mailing; or to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being
redeemed in part; or to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a
record date and the next succeeding interest payment date.

                  (vi)   Prior to due presentment for the registration of a
transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat
the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such
Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such
Notes and for all other purposes, subject to the provisions of this Indenture
and the Notes relating to record dates for the payment of interest, and neither
the Trustee, nor any Agent nor the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

                  (vii)  The Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and
Global Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof.

                  (viii) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of
Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06
to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

                  (ix)   Each Note or Notes issued upon any registration of
transfer or exchange of any Note, or pursuant to Section 2.10 or Section 3.06
hereof, shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 or integral multiples
thereof, except that not more than one (1) new Note so being issued in respect
of the Note being surrendered (the "surrendered Note") may be in a denomination
that is not $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Notes may not be surrendered
for combination into a Note with a principal amount that is not $1,000 or an
integral multiple thereof.

         Each Holder of a Note agrees to indemnify the Issuer and the Trustee
against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment
of such Holder's Note in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or
applicable United States federal or state securities law.

         The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or
inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this
Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest
in any Note (including any transfers between or among Participants or beneficial
owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such
certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by,

                                     -26-

<PAGE>

and to do so when expressly required by terms of, this Indenture, and to examine
the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express
requirements hereof.

SECTION 2.07.              REPLACEMENT NOTES.

         If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuer and
the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of any Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon the written
order of the Issuer signed by an Officer of the Issuer, shall authenticate a
replacement Note if the requirements under the Indenture are met. If required by
the Issuer or the Trustee, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that
is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the
Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that
any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge for its
expenses in replacing a Note.

         Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and
shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

SECTION 2.08.              OUTSTANDING NOTES.

         The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by
the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for
cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the
Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this
Section as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note
does not cease to be outstanding because any Issuer or Subsidiary Guarantor or
an Affiliate of any Issuer or Subsidiary Guarantor holds the Note.

         If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

         If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section
4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

         If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an
Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money
sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such
Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue
interest.

SECTION 2.09.              TREASURY NOTES

         In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of
Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the
Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the
Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, shall be considered as though not
outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee
shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only
Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned
shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that

                                     -27-

<PAGE>

have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee
establishes, to the satisfaction of the Trustee, the pledgee's right to deliver
any such direction, waiver, or consent with respect to the Notes and that the
pledgee is not the Issuer, a Subsidiary Guarantor, any other obligor upon the
Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor.

SECTION 2.10.              TEMPORARY NOTES.

         Until Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare
and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes upon a written order of the
Issuer signed by an Officer of the Issuer. Temporary Notes shall be
substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the
Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare
and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary
Notes.

         Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of
this Indenture.

SECTION 2.11.              CANCELLATION

         The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for
cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any
Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The
Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of
transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy
cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedure. Certification of
destruction shall be delivered to the Issuer. The Issuer may not issue new Notes
to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation.

SECTION 2.12.              DEFAULTED INTEREST.

         If the Issuer or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors defaults in a payment
of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful
manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest,
to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case
at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer shall
notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be
paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuer shall fix or
cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, provided that
no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related
payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special
record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee
in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed
to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment
date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

SECTION 2.13.              CUSIP NUMBERS.

         The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then
generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices
of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such
notice may 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 and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on

                                     -28-

<PAGE>

the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such numbers. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of any
change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

                                    ARTICLE 3.
                            REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

SECTION 3.01.              NOTICES TO TRUSTEE.

         If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional
redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, the Issuer shall furnish to the
Trustee, at least 30 (or a lesser number acceptable to the Trustee) days but not
more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officer's Certificate setting
forth (i) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant
to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the
principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price.

SECTION 3.02.              SELECTION OF NOTES TO BE REDEEMED.

         If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, selection
of Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the
requirements of the principal national securities exchange or trading system, if
any, on which the Notes are listed or accepted for trading, or, if the Notes are
not so listed or accepted for trading, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such
method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and in accordance with
methods generally used at the time of selection by fiduciaries in similar
circumstances. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of
redemption that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon
cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the
date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to
accrue on Notes or portions of them called for redemption unless the Issuer
defaults in making such redemption payment.

         The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of
Notes selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000;
except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire
outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of
$1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence,
provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also
apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

SECTION 3.03.              NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

         At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date,
the Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of
redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered
address.

         The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP
numbers, if any) and shall state:

         (a) the redemption date;

                                     -29-

<PAGE>

         (b) the redemption price for the Notes and accrued and unpaid interest,
if any;

         (c) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal
amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon
surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Note;

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

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

         (f) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment,
interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the
redemption date;

         (g) the  paragraph  of the Notes  and/or  Section of this  Indenture
pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

         (h) the CUSIP number, if any, of the Notes called for redemption and
that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP
number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

         At the Issuer's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Issuer's name and at the Issuer's expense; provided, however,
that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 (or a lesser
number acceptable to the Trustee) days prior to the redemption date, an
Officer's Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting
forth the information in such notice required by the preceding paragraph.

SECTION 3.04.              EFFECT OF NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

         Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03
hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the
redemption date at the redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest to such
date. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. Upon surrender to the
Paying Agent of any of the Notes called for redemption, those Notes shall be
paid on the redemption date at the redemption price, together with accrued and
unpaid interest to such date.

SECTION 3.05.              DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

         On or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption date,
the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money
sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all
Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall
promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying
Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption
price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.

         If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph,
on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or
the portions of Notes called for

                                     -30-

<PAGE>

redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or
prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid
interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at
the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption
shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of
the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on
the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid,
and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in
each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

         Unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of Notes (and accrued
and unpaid interest) called for redemption, interest on such Notes shall cease
to accrue after the redemption date.

SECTION 3.06.              NOTES REDEEMED IN PART.

         Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall
issue and, upon receipt of a written order signed by an Officer of the Issuer,
the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new
Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note
surrendered.

SECTION 3.07.              OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

         (a) Except as set forth in Section 3.07(b), the Notes shall not be
redeemable at the Issuer's option prior to March 1, 2005. Thereafter, the Notes
shall be redeemable at the option of the Issuer, in whole or in part, at any
time upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at the redemption
prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date,
if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on March 1 of the years
indicated below:

Year                                                      Percentage

2005..................................................... 106.5%
2006..................................................... 103.25%
2007 and thereafter...................................... 100.00%

         (b) Notwithstanding clause (a) of this Section 3.07: (i) at any time
prior to March 1, 2005, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up
to 35% of the initially outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes at a
redemption price equal to 113.00% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the redemption date, with the cash
proceeds of one or more Public Equity Offerings; provided that, in each case,
at least 65% of the initially outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes
remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and
provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 75 days of the date
of the closing of such Public Equity Offering; and (ii) upon a Change of
Control Triggering Event, the Issuer may, but shall in no event be required to,
at any time, within 75 days after the Change of Control Date, redeem 100% but
not less than 100% of the outstanding Notes at a redemption price equal to the
lower of 110.00% of the principal amount thereof and the amount at which the
Issuer could redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 3.07(a) hereof, plus accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the redemption date.

                                     -31-

<PAGE>

         (c) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant
to the provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

SECTION 3.08.              MANDATORY REDEMPTION.

         The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or
sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes, provided that this Section 3.08
shall not be deemed to affect the obligations of the Issuer pursuant to Section
4.10 or 4.15 hereof.

SECTION 3.09.              OFFER TO PURCHASE NOTES.

         If the Issuer shall be required to commence an offer to all Holders to
purchase Notes (a "Purchase Offer") pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, an "Asset
Sale Offer," or pursuant to Section 4.15 hereof, a "Change of Control Offer,"
the Issuer shall follow the procedures specified below.

         The Purchase Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days
following its commencement (the "Offer Period"). No later than five Business
Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the "Purchase Date"), the Issuer
shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant
to Section 4.10 hereof, in the case of an Asset Sale Offer, or 4.15 hereof, in
the case of a Change of Control Offer (the "Offer Amount") or, if less than the
Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Purchase
Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as
interest payments are made.

         If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or
before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall
be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of
business on such record date, and no additional interest shall be payable to
Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Purchase Offer.

         Upon the commencement of a Purchase Offer, the Issuer shall send, by
first class mail, a notice to each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee.
The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such
Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Purchase Offer. The Purchase Offer shall
be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Purchase
Offer, shall state:

         (a) that the Purchase Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09
and Section 4.10 or 4.15 hereof, as applicable, and the length of time the
Purchase Offer shall remain open;

         (b) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

         (c) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue
to accrue interest;

         (d) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note
accepted for payment pursuant to the Purchase Offer shall cease to accrue
interest after the Purchase Date;

         (e) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any
Purchase Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled
"Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse of the Note duly completed,
or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the

                                     -32-

<PAGE>

Issuer, a depository, if appointed by the Issuer, or a Paying Agent at the
address specified in the notice prior to the expiration of the Offer Period;

         (f) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the
Issuer, the depository or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not
later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or
letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note
the Holder delivered for purchase, the certificate number (in the case of a
Definitive Note) and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election
to have such Note purchased;

         (g) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by
Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuer shall select the Notes to be
purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed
appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, or
integral multiples thereof, shall be purchased); and

         (h) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be
issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the
Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer).

         On or before 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Purchase Date, the
Issuer shall irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent in immediately
available funds the aggregate purchase price with respect to a principal amount
of Notes equal to the Offer Amount (or if less the principal amount of the Notes
delivered prior to the expiration of the Offer Period), together with accrued
and unpaid interest thereon (to the extent then required to be paid), to be held
for payment in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. On the Purchase
Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment, on a pro
rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes tendered pursuant
to the Purchase Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all
Notes tendered, (ii) deliver or cause the Paying Agent or Depository, as the
case may be, to deliver to the Trustee Notes so accepted and (iii) deliver to
the Trustee an Officer's Certificate stating that such Notes were accepted for
payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. The
Issuer, the Depository or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly
(but in any case not later than three Business Days after the Purchase Date)
mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price
of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase,
plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and the Issuer shall promptly
issue a new Note, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail or deliver such
new Note to such Holder, equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of
such Holder's Notes surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly
mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall
publicly announce in a newspaper of general circulation or in a press release
provided to a nationally recognized financial wire service the results of the
Purchase Offer on the Purchase Date.

SECTION 4.01.              PAYMENT OF NOTES.

         The Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in this
Indenture and in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be
considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Issuer or
a Subsidiary, holds as of 10:00 a.m. New York City Time on the due date money
deposited by the Issuer in immediately available funds and designated for and
sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due and the
Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to Holders on such date
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

         The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate equal to
1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the
extent lawful; it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest
(without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent
lawful.

SECTION 4.02.              MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY.

         The Issuer shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New
York, an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate
of the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or
upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The
Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any
change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer
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 Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee.

         The Issuer 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
Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of
Manhattan, the City of New York for such purposes. The Issuer shall give prompt
written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any
change in the location of any such other office or agency.

         The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee
as one such office or agency of the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.03
hereof.

SECTION 4.03.              REPORTS.

         Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the Commission,
so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee,
within 15 days of the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and
regulations for filing reports, all quarterly and annual financial information
that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms
10-Q and 10-K, as the case may be, if the Issuer were required to file such
Forms,

                                     -34-

<PAGE>

including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations" that describes the financial condition and results of
operations of the Issuer and its consolidated Subsidiaries and, with respect to
the annual information only, a report thereon by the Issuer's certified
independent accountant. In addition, whether or not required by the rules and
regulations of the Commission, the Issuer shall file a copy of all such
documents with the Commission for public availability (unless the Commission
will not accept such a filing) and make such information available to securities
analysts and prospective investors upon request. The Trustee will provide, at
the Issuer's expense, copies of any such documents to any Holders that request
such copies. The Issuer will also comply with the other provisions of TIA
Section 314(a). Delivery of such 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 Issuer's compliance with any of its
covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely on Officer's
Certificates).

SECTION 4.04.              COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATE.

         (a) The Issuer shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding,
deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an
Officer's Certificate which need not comply with Section 14.05 hereof, stating
that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries during the
preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing
Officers (one of whom shall be the principal executive officer, principal
financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Issuer) with a view to
determining whether the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its
obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each Officer
signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuer
has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each covenant contained in this
Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the
terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of
Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action, if any, such
Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that to the best
of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by
reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any, on
the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the
event and what action, if any, the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with
respect thereto.

         (b) The Issuer shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding,
deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any
Default or Event of Default, an Officer's Certificate specifying such Default
or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take
with respect thereto.

SECTION 4.05.              TAXES.

         The Issuer shall pay, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay,
prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental levies,

to the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 4.06.              STAY, EXTENSION AND USURY LAWS.

         The Issuer and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors covenants (to the
extent that they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist
upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage
of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time
hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this
Indenture; and the Issuer and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors (to the extent
that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage
of any such law, and covenants that they shall not, by resort to any such law,
hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law has been enacted.

SECTION 4.07.              RESTRICTED PAYMENTS.

         The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: (i) declare or pay any dividend or make
any other payment or distribution on account of the Issuer's or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any
payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Issuer

holders of the Issuer's or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests
in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable (a) in
additional Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer or (in
the case of a dividend, other payment or distribution on account of the Equity
Interest of a Restricted Subsidiary) of such Restricted Subsidiary or (b) to the
Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries); (ii) purchase, redeem or otherwise
acquire or retire for value (including without limitation, in connection with
any merger or consolidation involving the Issuer) any Equity Interests of the

for value any Indebtedness (other than the Notes) that is pari passu with or
subordinated to the Notes or the Note Guaranties, except a payment of interest
or principal at Stated Maturity; or (iv) make any Restricted Investment (all
such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above
being collectively referred to as "Restricted Payments"), unless, at the time of
and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:

         (a) no Default or Event of Default  shall have  occurred  and be
continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; and

         (b) the Issuer would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after
giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at
the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to
incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated
Interest Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of Section 4.09;
and

         (c) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all
other Restricted Payments made by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries

the

                                     -36-

<PAGE>

beginning of the fiscal quarter immediately following the fiscal quarter in
which the effective date of the Plan occurred to the end of the most recent
fiscal quarter ending at least 45 days (or, if less, the number of days after
the end of such fiscal quarter as the consolidated financial statements of the
Issuer shall be provided hereunder) prior to the date of such Restricted
Payment (or, in case such Consolidated Net Income shall be a deficit, minus
100% of such deficit), plus (ii) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds
received by the Issuer from the issue or sale since the date of this Indenture
of Equity Interests of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock) or of
Disqualified Stock or debt securities of the Issuer that have been converted
into such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock
or convertible debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of the Issuer and other
than Disqualified Stock or convertible debt securities that have been converted
into Disqualified Stock) or of capital contributions to the Issuer, plus (iii)
to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the date of
this Indenture is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash the
aggregate amount received in cash with respect thereto (less the cost of
disposition, if any), including, without limitation, any cash dividends or
distributions, and any cash dividends or distributions received from any
Unrestricted Subsidiary.

         The foregoing provisions shall not prohibit (i) the payment of any
dividend or distribution within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof,
if at said date of declaration such payment would have complied with the
provisions of this Indenture; (ii) the redemption, repurchase, retirement,
defeasance or other acquisition of any Pari Passu Debt, or subordinated
Indebtedness or Equity Interests of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in
exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of, the substantially concurrent
sale or issuance (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) of Equity
Interests of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any
Disqualified Stock); provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that
is utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other
acquisition shall be excluded from clause (ii) of the preceding paragraph; (iii)
the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of Pari Passu Debt
or subordinated Indebtedness with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; (iv) the payment of any dividend or
distribution by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to the holders of its
Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; (v) the repurchase, redemption or other
acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Issuer, any
Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, or any direct or indirect parent of the
Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries held by any member of the Issuer's (or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries') management pursuant to any management equity
subscription agreement or stock option agreement either (a) in effect as of the
date of this Indenture; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such
repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests shall not exceed
$5.0 million in any twelve-month period and no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing immediately after such transaction or (b) upon
the termination of such person's employment; (vi) additional payments in an
aggregate amount not to exceed $25.0 million; (vii) Investments received by the
Issuer or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries as non-cash consideration from
Asset Sales to the extent permitted by Section 4.10; (viii) any transaction
pursuant to the Reorganization; (ix) transactions contemplated by the Plan; and
(x) any Restricted Payment authorized or required under the New Credit Facility.

         The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an
Unrestricted Subsidiary if such designation would not cause a Default; provided
that in no event shall the

                                     -37-

<PAGE>

business currently operated by any Subsidiary Guarantor be transferred to or
held by an Unrestricted Subsidiary. For purposes of making such determination,
all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries
(except to the extent repaid in cash) in the Subsidiary so designated shall be
deemed to be Restricted Payments at the time of such designation and shall be
included for purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of Restricted
Payments under clause (c) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.07. All such
outstanding Investments shall be deemed to constitute Investments in an amount
equal to the fair market value of such Investments at the time of such
designation. Such designation shall only be permitted if such Restricted
Payment would be permitted at such time and if such Restricted Subsidiary
otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

         The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the
fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or
securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair
market value of any individual or series of related non-cash Restricted Payments
(other than in the Reorganization) shall be determined by the Board of Directors
whose resolution with respect thereto shall be delivered to the Trustee, such
determination to be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting,
appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing, as applicable, if
such fair market value exceeds $10.0 million. In connection with each Restricted
Payment, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, prior to or within 60 days of
the making of such Restricted Payment, an Officer's Certificate stating that
such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the
calculations required by this Section 4.07 were computed, together with a copy
of any fairness opinion or appraisal required by this Indenture.

SECTION 4.08.              DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING
                           SUBSIDIARIES.

         The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to
exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any
Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor to (i)(a) pay dividends
or make any other distributions to the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries on its Capital Stock, or (b) pay any indebtedness owed to the
Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (ii) make loans or advances to the
Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (iii) transfer any of its
properties or assets to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, except
for such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of (a)
Existing Indebtedness, (b) the New Credit Facility, and any amendments,
modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings,
replacements or refinancings thereof, provided that such amendments,
modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings,
replacement or refinancings are substantially no more restrictive when taken as
a whole with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those
contained in the New Credit Facility as in effect on the date of this Indenture,
(c) this Indenture and the Notes, (d) applicable law, (e) any instrument
governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Issuer or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition
(except to the extent such Indebtedness was incurred in connection with or in
contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not
applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than
the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the

                                     -38-

<PAGE>

Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired, (f) by reason of customary
non-assignment or net worth provisions in leases or licenses entered into in
the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices, (g)
purchase money obligations for property acquired that impose restrictions of
the nature described in clause (iii) above on the property so acquired, (h)
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, provided that the restrictions contained in
the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are
substantially no more restrictive when taken as a whole than those contained in
the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced, (i) any instrument
or agreement governing Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this
Indenture, which is secured by a Lien permitted to be incurred under this
Indenture, (j) restrictions applicable to a Receivables Subsidiary arising from
a Receivables Transaction, (k) contracts for the sale of assets, including,
without limitation, customary restrictions with respect to a Restricted
Subsidiary with respect to the issuance pursuant to an agreement that has been
entered into for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the
Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary or (l) customary
provisions in joint venture agreements or other similar agreements.

SECTION 4.09.              INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED
                           STOCK.

         The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guaranty
or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise,
with respect to (collectively, "incur") any Indebtedness (including Acquired
Debt) and the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not issue any
Disqualified Stock or shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness (including
Acquired Debt and Indebtedness under the New Credit Facility) or issue shares of
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock if:

         (i) no Default or Event of Default  shall have  occurred  and be
continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such incurrence;

         (ii) in the case of the incurrence of Subordinated Indebtedness by the
Issuer, after giving effect to such incurrence (including the pro forma
application of the net proceeds therefrom), the Consolidated Interest Coverage
Ratio is greater than 2.0 to 1.0; provided, that so long as any Indebtedness
incurred pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 4.09 shall remain outstanding,
such Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio shall be greater than 2.5 to 1.0 after
giving effect to such incurrence (including the pro forma application of the net
proceeds thereof); and

         (iii) in the case of the incurrence of any Indebtedness other than
Subordinated Indebtedness by the Issuer or the incurrence of any Indebtedness by
a Restricted Subsidiary, after giving effect to such incurrence (including the
pro forma application of the net proceeds thereof), the Consolidated Interest
Coverage Ratio is greater than 2.5 to 1.0.

         The provisions of the first paragraph of this covenant will not apply
to the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness, which shall be
permitted notwithstanding anything otherwise to the contrary in this Indenture
(collectively, "Permitted Debt"):

         (i)    the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of Indebtedness under the New Credit Facility, and the issuance of
letters of credit thereunder from time to time, in an aggregate principal amount
outstanding at any time not to exceed $425,000,000;

         (ii)   the incurrence by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries of the
Existing Indebtedness;

         (iii)  the incurrence by the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors of

Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage
financings or purchase money obligations, in each case incurred for the purpose
of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction or
improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Issuer
or such Restricted Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount at any time
outstanding not to exceed 5% of the amount of the consolidated assets of the
Issuer and its Subsidiaries, as shown on the consolidated balance sheet of the
Issuer and its Subsidiaries included in the financial information most recently
provided to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.03 hereof;

         (v)    the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted

proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness that was
permitted by this Indenture to be incurred;

         (vi)   Indebtedness incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to surety
bonds or letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business,
including, without limitation, surety bonds or letters of credit in respect of
workers' compensation claims or self-insurance, or other Indebtedness with
respect to reimbursement type obligations regarding workers' compensation
claims;

         (vii)  the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Issuer and any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that (i) if the Issuer is
the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not a Subsidiary Guarantor,
such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in
cash of all Obligations with respect to the Notes and (ii)(A) any subsequent
issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness
being held by a Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary and (B)
any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not
either the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed, in each case, to
constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (vii);

         (viii) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries of
Hedging Obligations;

         (ix)   Indebtedness incurred pursuant to the terms and provisions, and
in connection with the implementation, of the Plan;

         (x)    the Guaranty by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that was
permitted by this Indenture to be incurred;

                                     -40-

<PAGE>

         (xi)   the incurrence of Non-Recourse Debt, provided, however, that if
any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Debt of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, such event shall be deemed to constitute an incurrence of
Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer;

         (xii)   the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness, in an aggregate principal amount (or
accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any other
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xii), not to exceed $25.0
million;

         (xiii) Acquired Debt of a Subsidiary in existence at the time of the
acquisition of such Subsidiary, if such Acquired Debt was not incurred in
contemplation of such acquisition and such Acquired Debt is Non-Recourse Debt
(except with respect to such acquired Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries); and

         (xiv)  Asset Sales in the form of Receivables Transactions.

         For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, if an item
of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of
Permitted Debt described in clauses (i) through (xiv) above or is entitled to be
incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 4.09, the Issuer shall,
in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that
complies with this covenant and such item of Indebtedness will be treated as
having been incurred pursuant to only one of such clauses or pursuant to the
first paragraph hereof. Neither the accrual of interest, nor the accretion of
accreted value, will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes
of this Section 4.09.

SECTION 4.10.              ASSET SALES.

         The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless (i) the Issuer (or the
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of
such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (evidenced by an
Officer's Certificate delivered to the Trustee and a resolution of the Board of
Directors) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise
disposed of and (ii) at least 80% of the consideration therefor received by the
Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of (A) cash, (B) assets
useful in a Permitted Business not to exceed $50.0 million in the aggregate over
the life of the Notes, and/or (C) Equity Interests representing a controlling
interest in a Permitted Business not to exceed $50.0 million in the aggregate
over the life of the Notes (collectively, the "Permitted Consideration");
provided that the amount of (x) any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer's or
such Restricted Subsidiary's most recent balance sheet), of the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities (except to the extent
reflected (or reserved for) on a balance sheet of the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary as of the date prior to the date of consummation of such transaction)
and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or the Note
Guaranties that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets) and (y) any
securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or any such
Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted within 90 days by
the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into Permitted Consideration (to the
extent so received), shall be deemed to be Permitted Consideration for purposes
of this provision; and provided further, that the 80% limitation referred to
above shall not apply to any Asset Sale in which the Permitted

                                     -41-

<PAGE>

Consideration portion of the consideration received therefor is equal to or
greater than what the net after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset
Sale complied with the aforementioned 80% limitation.

         Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset
Sale, the Issuer may apply such Net Proceeds at its option, (a) to repay Senior
Debt, (b) to secure Letter of Credit Obligations to the extent letters of credit
have not been drawn upon or returned unwithdrawn, (c) to the acquisition of
assets to be used in a Permitted Business and/or (d) to an investment in
properties or assets that replace the properties and assets that are the subject
of such Asset Sale and/or, in the case of a sale of a bowling center or bowling
centers, may deem such Net Proceeds to have been applied pursuant to this clause
(d) to the extent of any expenditures made to acquire, renovate, expand or
construct one or more bowling centers within 365 days preceding the date of the
Asset Sale. Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Issuer
may temporarily reduce the New Credit Facility or otherwise invest such Net
Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. Any Net
Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the
first sentence of this paragraph will be deemed to constitute "Excess Proceeds."
When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Issuer
shall be required to make an offer to all Holders (an "Asset Sale Offer") to
purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased out of the
Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to
the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section
3.09. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant to an
Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any
remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes. If the aggregate
principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the amount of
Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro
rata basis; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be obligated to
purchase Notes in denominations other than integral multiples of $1,000. Upon
completion of such offer to purchase, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be
reset at zero.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.10, the
Issuer and its Subsidiaries may transfer assets in any Fiscal Year having a fair
market value not in excess of $10,000,000 in the aggregate in connection with an
exchange pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 of such assets for
like-kind assets to be used in the business of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries.

SECTION 4.11.              TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

         The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease,
transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase
any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction,
contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or Guaranty with, or for the
benefit of, any Affiliate (each of the foregoing, an "Affiliate Transaction"),
unless (i) such Affiliate Transaction is set forth in writing and is on terms
that are no less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Subsidiary than those
that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such
Subsidiary with an unrelated Person and (ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee
(a) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate
Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $5.0 million, a
resolution of the Board of

                                     -42-

<PAGE>

Directors set forth in an Officer's Certificate certifying that such Affiliate
Transaction complies with clause (i) above and that such Affiliate Transaction
has been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors and
(b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate
Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, an
opinion as to the fairness to the Holders of such Affiliate Transaction from a
financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment
banking firm of national standing; provided that the following shall not be
deemed Affiliate Transactions:

         (i)   prepaid expenses and loans or advances to employees and similar
items in the ordinary course of business;

         (ii)  purchases (and sales) of inventory and services in the ordinary
course of business on terms that are customary in the industry or consistent
with past practices;

         (iii) fees, compensation or employee benefit arrangements (including
any grants of securities under employee benefit or option plans) paid to, and
indemnity provided on behalf of, directors, officers or employees of the Issuer
or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer after the date of this Indenture;

         (iv)  transactions pursuant to agreements in effect on the date of
original issuance of the Notes, including amendments thereto after the issue
date, provided that the terms of any such amendment are not, in the aggregate,
less favorable to the Issuer than the terms of such agreement prior to such
amendment;

         (v)   any employment agreement (including customary benefits
thereunder) entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in
the ordinary course of business and consistent with the current market practice
or the past practice of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary;

         (vi)  transactions between or among the Issuer and/or its wholly owned
subsidiaries and Restricted Subsidiaries; and

         (vii) Restricted Payments that are permitted by the provisions of
Section 4.07.

SECTION 4.12.              LIENS.

         The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to
exist or become effective any Lien on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired
by the Issuer or that Restricted Subsidiary, or any income or profits therefrom
or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, except Permitted
Liens.

SECTION 4.13.              LINE OF BUSINESS.

         The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except
to such extent as would not be material to the Issuer and its Restricted
Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

SECTION 4.14.              CORPORATE EXISTENCE.

         Subject to Article 5 and Article 12 hereof, the Issuer and the
Subsidiary Guarantors shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) their corporate existences, and
the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of the Restricted
Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the
same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted
Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises
of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the
Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise,
or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries, if either: (i) the Issuer shall determine that the preservation
thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and
its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not
adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes; or (ii) the Plan
provided for the termination, dissolution, abandonment or disposal thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the loss of licenses shall not be deemed a
default under this Section 4.14 provided that such loss is not adverse in any
material respect to the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 4.15.              OFFER TO PURCHASE UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL TRIGGERING
                           EVENT.

         (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event (the
date of the last event required for such Change of Control Triggering Event to
become a Change of Control Triggering Event hereinafter referred to as the
"Change of Control Date"), each Holder shall have the right to require the
Issuer to purchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple
thereof) of such Holder's Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the
"Change of Control Offer") at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the
aggregate principal amount thereof to the date of purchase. Within 30 days
following the Change of Control Date, the Issuer shall mail a notice to each
Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constituted the Change
of Control and offering to purchase Notes on the date specified in such notice,
which notice shall comply with Section 3.09 hereof. The Issuer shall comply
with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and
regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of the Notes as a
result of the Change of Control Triggering Event.

         (b) Prior to complying with the provisions of this Section 4.15 and the
applicable provisions of Section 3.09 hereof, but in any event prior to the
Purchase Date, the Issuer shall either repay all outstanding Senior Debt in full
or obtain the requisite consents, if any, under all agreements governing
outstanding Senior Debt to permit the purchase of Notes required by this
covenant. The Issuer shall not be obligated to purchase the Notes pursuant to
Section 4.15(a) until after the Issuer complies with the immediately preceding
sentence but the failure to make such purchases shall constitute an Event of
Default under Section 6.01(c). The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of
the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Purchase
Date.

         The Change of Control Triggering Event provisions described in this
Section 4.15 shall be applicable notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Indenture, other than Section 3.09

                                     -44-

<PAGE>

hereof, which Section 3.09 shall govern the procedures used in connection with
a Change of Control Offer.

         The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon
a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of
Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the
requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer
made by the Issuer and purchases all Senior Subordinated Notes validly tendered
and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

SECTION 4.16.              ANTI-LAYERING.

         The Issuer and any Restricted Subsidiary shall not incur, create,
issue, assume, Guaranty or otherwise become liable for any Indebtedness that is
both (a) subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Debt and (b)
senior in any respect in right of payment to the Notes. No Subsidiary Guarantor
shall incur, create, issue, assume, Guaranty or otherwise become liable for any
Indebtedness that is both (a) subordinate or junior in right of payment to its
Senior Debt and (b) senior in right of payment to its Note Guaranty.

SECTION 4.17.              SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS.

         The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback transaction; provided that
the Issuer may enter into a sale and leaseback transaction if (i) the Issuer
could have (a) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt
relating to such sale and leaseback transaction pursuant to Section 4.09 and (b)
incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.12 and (ii)
the gross cash proceeds of such sale and leaseback transaction are at least
equal to the fair market value (in the case of gross cash proceeds in excess of
$20.0 million as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors and set
forth in an Officer's Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of the property that
is the subject of such sale and leaseback transaction.

SECTION 4.18.              LIMITATION ON ISSUANCES AND SALES OF CAPITAL STOCK OF
                           RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

         The Issuer (i) shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer to, transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose
of any Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to any Person
(other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer), unless (a)
such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition is of all the
Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary and (b) the cash Net Proceeds from
such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition are applied in
accordance with Section 4.10, and (ii) shall not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer to issue any of its Equity Interests (other than, if
necessary, shares of its Capital Stock constituting directors' qualifying
shares) to any Person other than to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Issuer; provided, however, the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to: (A)
Investments in the entities described under clause (m) of the definition of
Permitted Investments; or (B) transfers, conveyances, sales, leases or other
dispositions (collectively "dispositions") of any Capital Stock of any
Restricted Subsidiary that have a fair market value at the time of such
disposition of less than $5.0 million.

SECTION 4.19.              PAYMENTS FOR CONSENT.

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

SECTION 4.20.              ADDITIONAL GUARANTIES.

         (i) If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall, after
the date of this Indenture, transfer or cause to be transferred, including by
way of any Investment, in one or a series of transactions (whether or not
related), any assets, businesses, divisions, real property or equipment having
an aggregate fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors) in excess of $5.0 million to any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a
Subsidiary Guarantor or a Foreign Subsidiary, or (ii) if the Issuer or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries shall acquire another Restricted Subsidiary other
than a Foreign Subsidiary having total assets with a fair market value (as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) in excess of $5.0 million,
or (iii) if any Restricted Subsidiary other than a Foreign Subsidiary shall
incur Acquired Debt in excess of $5.0 million, then the Issuer shall, at the
time of such transfer, acquisition or incurrence, (i) cause such transferee,
acquired Restricted Subsidiary or Restricted Subsidiary incurring Acquired Debt
(if not then a Subsidiary Guarantor) to execute a Note Guaranty of the
Obligations of the Issuer under the Notes in the form set forth in this
Indenture and (ii) deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, that such Note Guaranty is a valid,
binding and enforceable obligation of such transferee, acquired Restricted
Subsidiary or Restricted Subsidiary incurring Acquired Debt, subject to
customary exceptions for bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance and equitable
principles. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries may make a Restricted Investment in any Wholly Owned Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer without compliance with this covenant provided that
such Restricted Investment is permitted by Section 4.07.

SECTION 4.21.              RATING BY RATING AGENCIES.

         The Issuer will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain a rating of
the Notes from Moody's Investor's Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor's Corporation
(or, if at any time neither Moody's Investor's Service, Inc. nor Standard &
Poor's Corporation shall be rating such obligations, then from another
nationally recognized rating agency, reasonably acceptable to the Trustee)
within 90 days from the date of this Indenture.

SECTION 5.01.              MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, OR SALE OF ASSETS.

         The Issuer shall not consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not
the Issuer is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease,
convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or
assets in one or more related transactions, to another Person

                                     -46-

<PAGE>

unless (i) the Issuer is the surviving corporation or the entity or the Person
formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the
Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition shall have been made is organized and existing under the laws of
the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (ii) the
entity or Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if
other than such Issuer), or the Person to which such sale, assignment,
transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made, assumes
all the obligations of such Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture pursuant
to a supplemental indenture in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;
(iii) immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default exists;
and (iv) except in the case of a merger of the Issuer with or into one of its
Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries, the Issuer or the entity or Person formed
by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer), or
to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition shall have been made shall, at the time of such transaction and
after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction had occurred at
the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, (A) be permitted to incur
at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Interest
Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of Section 4.09 hereof and
(B) have a Consolidated Net Worth in an amount which is not less than the
Consolidated Net Worth of the Issuer immediately prior to such transaction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv), (a) any Restricted
Subsidiary may consolidate with, merge into or transfer all or part of its
properties and assets to the Issuer and (b) the Issuer may merge with an
Affiliate incorporated solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Issuer in
another jurisdiction. In the case of a sale, assignment, lease, transfer,
conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Issuer, upon the assumption provided for in clause (ii) above, the Issuer
shall be discharged from all further liability and obligation under this
Indenture.

         Prior to the proposed transaction, the Issuer shall deliver to the
Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each of which shall
state that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental
indenture comply with this Article 5 and that all conditions precedent herein
provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

SECTION 5.02.              SUCCESSOR CORPORATION SUBSTITUTED.

         Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer,
lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Issuer in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof, the successor Person
formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Issuer is merged or to
which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is
made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date
of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the
provisions of this Indenture referring to the "Issuer" shall refer instead to
such successor and not to the Issuer), and may exercise every right and power of
the Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person
had been named as the Issuer herein; provided, however, that the predecessor
Issuer shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and
interest on the Notes except in the case of a sale of all or substantially all
of the Issuer's assets as provided in the last sentence of the first paragraph
of Section 5.01 hereof.

         An "Event of Default" occurs if:

Restricted Subsidiaries) whether such Indebtedness or Guaranty now exists, or
is created after the date of this Indenture, which default (i) is caused by a
failure to pay principal at final maturity or (ii) results in the acceleration
of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity and, in each case, the
principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount
of any other such Indebtedness the Stated Maturity of which has been so
accelerated, aggregates $25.0 million or more;

         (h) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under
any Bankruptcy Law that:

         (i) is for relief against the Issuer or any of its Significant
Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would
constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

         (ii) appoints a custodian of the Issuer or any of its Significant
Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would
constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the
property of the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of
Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;
or

         (iii) orders the liquidation of the Issuer or any of its Significant
Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would
constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

         and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60
consecutive days.

SECTION 6.02.              ACCELERATION.

         If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the
Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately; provided, however, that
in the event of an acceleration based upon an Event of Default set forth in
Section 6.01(e) above, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically
annulled if the holders of Indebtedness which is the subject of acceleration
have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such
Indebtedness. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default
as described in clause (g) or (h) of Section 6.01 hereof all outstanding Notes
will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders of the
Notes may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this
Indenture. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.05 hereof, Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the
Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from
Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default
(except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or
interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

SECTION 6.03.              OTHER REMEDIES.

         If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue
any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and
interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the
Notes or this Indenture.

         The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any
of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or
omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note 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. All remedies are
cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

SECTION 6.04.              WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

         Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the
Holders of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and
its consequences hereunder, except (i) a continuing Default or Event of Default
in the payment of the principal of or premium or interest on the Notes (provided
that the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related
payment default that resulted from such acceleration) and (ii) a default with
respect to a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the
consent of each Holder affected. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease
to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have
been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend
to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 6.05.              CONTROL BY MAJORITY.

         Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power
conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that
conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines may be
unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or that may involve the
Trustee in personal liability and may take any other action it deems proper that
is not inconsistent with any such direction received from such Holders of the
Notes. In addition, prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be
entitled to indemnification from the Holders on terms reasonably satisfactory to
Trustee in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses arising from
taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 6.06.              LIMITATION ON SUITS.

         A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture
or the Notes only if:

         (a) the Holder of a Note gives to the Trustee written notice of a
continuing Event of Default;

         (b) the Holders of at least 25% in principal  amount of the then
outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

         (c) such Holder of a Note or Holders offer and, if requested,  provide
to the Trustee 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 the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of
indemnity; and

         (e) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction
inconsistent with the request.

                                     -50-

<PAGE>

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

SECTION 6.07.              RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF NOTES TO RECEIVE PAYMENT.

         Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any
Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium and interest on the
Notes, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes (including in
connection with a Purchase Offer), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any
such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or
affected without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 6.08.              COLLECTION SUIT BY TRUSTEE.

         If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and
is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and
as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of
principal of, premium and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on
overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as
shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel.

SECTION 6.09.              TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

         The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers
or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the
Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer
(or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall
be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other
property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian 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 to the Trustee any amount due to
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 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and
any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in
any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall
be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions,
dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be
entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan
of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. 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 Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the
Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 6.10.              PRIORITIES.

         If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall
pay out the money in the following order:

         First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under
Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expense and
liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and
expenses of collection;

         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 a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party
litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the
court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due

litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a
Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more
than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

SECTION 7.01.              DUTIES OF TRUSTEE.

         (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture,
and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise of such rights and
powers, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of his own affairs.

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

         (i) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express
provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that
are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;
and

                                     -52-

<PAGE>

         (ii)  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, on certificates or opinions furnished to the
Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the
Trustee shall be under a duty to examine any such certificates or 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).

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

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

         (ii)  the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in
good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless the Trustee was negligent in

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

         (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, 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 7.01 and Section 7.02.

         (e) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend
or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee shall be under no
obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the
request of any Holders, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee
security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or
expense.

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

an Officer's Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall
not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in
reliance on such Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may
consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any
Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from
liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder
in good faith and in reliance thereon.

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

powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; provided that the Trustee's conduct
does not constitute willful misconduct or negligence.

         (e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any
demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer or the Subsidiary
Guarantors shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of any Issuer or any
Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable.

rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of
any of the Holders unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee
reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities
that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

default is received by the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and
this Indenture.

SECTION 7.03.              INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

         The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the
owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, the Subsidiary
Guarantors or any Affiliate of the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors with the
same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the
Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within
90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee or resign, if
necessary. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is
also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

SECTION 7.04.              TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER.

         The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as

accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money
paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer's direction under any provision of this
Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be

any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this
Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

SECTION 7.05.              NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

         If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and is known
to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to Holders a notice of the Default or
Event of Default within 30 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default
or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
any Note, 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 interest of the Holders of the Notes.

                                     -54-

<PAGE>

SECTION 7.06.              REPORTS BY TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS OF THE NOTES.

         Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following
the date of this Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the
Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such
reporting date that complies with TIA ss. 313(a) (but if no event described in
TIA ss. 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting
date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA ss.
313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by
TIA ss. 313(c).

         A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders shall
be mailed to the Issuer and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange, if any,
on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA ss. 313(d). The Issuer
shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
exchange.

SECTION 7.07.              COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

         The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation
as the Trustee and the Issuer and shall from time to time agree in writing for
its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee's
compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an
express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for
all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in
addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the
reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's agents and
counsel.

         The Issuer shall indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor
Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees or taxes (other than taxes based on the
income of the Trustee)) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the
acceptance or administration of the Indenture and the performance of its duties
under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this
Indenture against the Issuer (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself
against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, or any Holder or any other
Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of
its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or
expense may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.
The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek
indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the
Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the
Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel
and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The
Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or
indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through
the Trustee's own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

         The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

         To secure the payment obligations of the Issuer in this Section, the
Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the claims of the Holders of the Notes on all
money or property held or collected by

                                     -55-

<PAGE>

the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on
particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture.

         When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(g) or (h) hereof occurs, the expenses and the
compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and
counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law.

         The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA ss. 313(b)(2) to
the extent applicable.

SECTION 7.08.              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 7.08.

         The Trustee may resign at any time and be discharged from the trust
hereby created by so notifying the Issuer in writing. The Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so
notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing. The Issuer may remove the
Trustee without prior notice and without liability to the Issuer by notifying
the Trustee in writing if:

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

         (b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an  insolvent  or an order
for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

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

         (d) the Trustee 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 Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a
successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.

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

         If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder of a Note who has
been a Holder of a Note for at least six months, fails to comply with Section
7.10, such Holder of a Note may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

                                     -56-

<PAGE>

         A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. 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 Holders of the Notes. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer
all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, if all sums owing
to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in
Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 7.08, the Issuer's obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue
for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.09.              SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER, ETC.

         If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all
or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation,
the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor
Trustee.

SECTION 7.10.              ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION.

         There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or
of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million
as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

         This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of TIA ss. 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA
ss. 310(b).

SECTION 7.11.              PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST ISSUER.

         The Trustee is subject to TIA ss. 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA ss. 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been
removed shall be subject to TIA ss. 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

SECTION 8.01.              OPTION TO EFFECT LEGAL DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT
                           DEFEASANCE.

         The Issuer may, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a

<PAGE>

obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set
forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "Legal Defeasance"). For this purpose,
Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be
deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the
outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only
for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this
Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all their
other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on
demand of and at the expense of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors, shall
execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following
provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder or until the Notes have been paid in full: (a) the rights of Holders
of outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section
8.05 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect
of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such
payments are due, (b) the Issuer's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' obligations
with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof, (c) the
rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the
Issuer's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' obligations in connection therewith and
(d) this Article 8. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may
exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise
of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.

SECTION 8.03.              COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

         Upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall,
subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof,
be released from their obligations under the covenants set forth in Article 4
hereof except for Sections 4.01 and 4.02 and, to the extent required by law,
4.04, and, with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the
conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, "Covenant
Defeasance"), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not "outstanding" for the
purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and
the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall
continue to be deemed "outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder (it being
understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting
purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the
outstanding Notes, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors may omit to comply
with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation
set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any
reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in
any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and
such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default
under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this
Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the
Issuer's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section
8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(c) through (h) hereof shall not constitute Events of
Default.

SECTION 8.04.              CONDITIONS TO LEGAL OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

         The following shall be the conditions to the application of either
Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes. In order to exercise
either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

result of such Legal Defeasance and shall 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;

         (c) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Issuer

Restricted Subsidiaries is bound;

Certificate stating that (a) the deposit will not be subject to any rights of
the holders of Senior Debt and (b) the deposit was not made by the Issuer with

with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other
creditors of the Issuer; and

         (h) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's

SECTION 8.05.              DEPOSITED MONEY AND GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS TO BE HELD
                           IN TRUST; OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

         Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and United States Government
Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or
other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the
"Trustee") pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes
shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the
provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or
through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to
become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but
such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
by law.

         The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or securities deposited
pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in
respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for
the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

         Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee
shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the
Issuer any money or securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof
which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the
Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are
in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to
effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

SECTION 8.06.              REPAYMENT TO ISSUER.

         The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuer upon
written request any excess money or securities held by them at any time.

         The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon written
request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that
remains unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such payment shall
have become due; provided, however, that the Issuer shall have either caused
notice of such payment to be mailed to each Holder of the Notes entitled thereto
no less than 30 days prior to such repayment or within such period shall have
published such notice in a financial newspaper of widespread circulation
published in the City of New York including, without limitation, The Wall Street
                                                                 ---------------
Journal. After payment to the Issuer, Holders of the Notes entitled to the money
-------
must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless an applicable
abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the
Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

SECTION 8.07.              REINSTATEMENT.

         If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or United
States Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the
case may be, by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer's

                                     -60-

<PAGE>

obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated
as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case
may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply
all such money or United States Government Obligations in accordance with
Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that if the Issuer
has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Notes because of the
reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights
of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or United
States Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                    ARTICLE 9.
                        AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

SECTION 9.01.              WITHOUT CONSENT OF HOLDERS OF NOTES.

         Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuer and
the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes without the
consent of any Holder:

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

         (b) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of
certificated Notes in a manner that does not materially adversely affect any
Holder;

         (c) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer's obligations to the
Holders by a successor to the Issuer pursuant to Article 5 hereof;

         (d) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or
benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights
hereunder of any Holder; or

         (e) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or
maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA.

         Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board
of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section
7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer in the execution of any
amended or supplemental Indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this
Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that
may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into
such amended or supplemental Indenture that affects its own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 9.02.              WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS OF NOTES

         Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, Section 11.13 or Section
13.13, the Issuer and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture and the
Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least
a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single
class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange
offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07
hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event
of Default in

                                     -61-

<PAGE>

the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes,
except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been
rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes may
be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes, voting as a single class (including consents
obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase
of, the Notes).

         Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board
of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
Indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the
Trustee of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the
Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall
join with the Issuer in the execution of such amended or supplemental Indenture
unless such amended or supplemental Indenture directly affects the Trustee's own
rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case
the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into
such amended or supplemental Indenture.

         It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this
Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment,
supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the
substance thereof.

         After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes
effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders affected thereby a notice
briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the
Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any
way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental Indenture
or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single
class may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuer with any
provision of this Indenture or the Notes. However, without the consent of each
Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with
respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

         (a) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to
an amendment, supplement or waiver;

         (b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note
or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the
Notes;

         (c) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest,
including default interest, on any Note;

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

         (e) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture governing
waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders to receive payments of
principal of or interest on the Notes.

SECTION 9.03.              COMPLIANCE WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

         Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be
set forth in an amended or supplemental Indenture that complies with the TIA as
then in effect.

                                     -62-

<PAGE>

SECTION 9.04.              REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS.

         Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent
to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent
Holder or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting
Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However,
any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its
Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the
waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or
waiver becomes effective on receipt by the Trustee of written consents from the
Holders of the requisite percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Notes
in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

         The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for
the purpose of determining the Holders of Notes entitled to consent to any
amendment, supplement or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then,
notwithstanding the last two sentences of the immediately preceding paragraph,
those Persons who were Holders of Notes at such record date (or their duly
designated proxies) and only those Persons shall be entitled to consent to such
amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given,
whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders of such Notes after such
record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days
after such record date.

SECTION 9.05.              NOTATION ON OR EXCHANGE OF NOTES.

         The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment,
supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in
exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of written
instructions signed by an Officer of the Issuer, authenticate new Notes that
reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

         Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not
affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 9.06.              TRUSTEE TO SIGN AMENDMENTS, ETC.

         The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized
pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely
affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuer
may not sign an amendment or supplemental Indenture until the Board of Directors
approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee
shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully
protected in relying upon an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

                             DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

SECTION 10.01.             TERMINATION OF ISSUER'S OBLIGATIONS.

         This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except that the
Issuer's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' obligations under Section 7.07 and 10.04
and the Issuer's, Trustee's and Paying Agent's obligations under Section 10.03
shall survive) when all outstanding Notes theretofore authenticated and issued
have been delivered (other than destroyed, lost or stolen Notes that have been
replaced or paid) to the Trustee for cancellation and the Issuer has paid all
sums payable by the Issuer hereunder. In addition, the Issuer may terminate all
of its obligations under this Indenture if:

         (1) the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee, or at
the option of the Trustee with a trustee reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee
and the Issuer under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and
substance satisfactory to the Trustee, money or United States Government
Obligations sufficient (as certified by an independent public accountant
designated by the Issuer) to pay principal and interest on the Notes to maturity
or redemption, as the case may be, and to pay all other sums payable by them
hereunder, provided that (i) the trustee of the irrevocable trust shall have
been irrevocably instructed to pay such money or the proceeds of such United
States Government Obligations to the Trustee and (ii) the Trustee shall have
been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such United
States Government Obligations to the payment of said principal and interest with
respect to the Notes;

         (2) the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors deliver to the Trustee an
Officer's Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture have been complied with, and an Opinion of Counsel
to the same effect; and

         (3) no Event of Default or event (including such deposit) which, with
notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default with respect
to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit.

Then, this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as provided in
this paragraph), and the Trustee, on demand of the Issuer, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging confirmation of and discharge under this Indenture.
The Issuer may make the deposit only if Article 11 hereof does not prohibit such
payment. However, the Issuer's obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06,
2.07, 4.01, 7.07, 7.08, 10.03 and 10.04, and the Trustee's and Paying Agent's
obligations in Section 10.03 shall survive until the Notes are no longer
outstanding. Thereafter, only the Issuer's, Trustee's and Paying Agents'
obligations in Section 10.03 shall survive.

         After such irrevocable deposit made pursuant to this Section 10.01 and
satisfaction of the other conditions set forth herein, the Trustee upon request
shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Issuer's and the Subsidiary
Guarantors' obligations under this Indenture except for those surviving
obligations specified above.

         In order to have money available on a payment date to pay principal or
interest on the Notes, the United States Government Obligations shall be payable
as to principal or interest at

                                     -64-

<PAGE>

least one Business Day before such payment date in such amounts as will provide
the necessary money.

         The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the United States Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to this Section 10.01 or the principal and
interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other
charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of outstanding Notes.

SECTION 10.02.             APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY.

         The Trustee or a trustee satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer
shall hold in trust money or United States Government Obligations deposited with
it pursuant to Section 10.01. It shall apply the deposited money and the money
from United States Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in
accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal and interest on the
Notes.

SECTION 10.03.             REPAYMENT TO ISSUER.

         The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuer upon
written request any excess money or securities held by them at any time.

         The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon written
request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that
remains unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such payment shall
have become due; provided, however, that the Issuer shall have either caused
notice of such payment to be mailed to each Holder of the Notes entitled thereto
no less than 30 days prior to such repayment or within such period shall have
published such notice in a financial newspaper of widespread circulation
published in the City of New York, including, without limitation, The Wall
Street Journal. After payment to the Issuer, Holders of the Notes entitled to
the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless an
applicable abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability
of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

SECTION 10.04.             REINSTATEMENT.

         If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or United
States Government Obligations in accordance with Section 10.02 by reason of any
legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or
governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, the Issuer's obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall
be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section
10.01 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all
such money or United States Government Obligations in accordance with Section
10.02; provided, however, that if the Issuer has made any payment of interest on
or principal of any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive
such payment from the money or United States Government Obligations held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                  SUBORDINATION

SECTION 11.01.             AGREEMENT TO SUBORDINATE.

         The Issuer and each Holder by accepting a Note irrevocably agree that
the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is subordinated in right of payment, to
the extent and in the manner provided in this Article, to the prior payment in
full of all Senior Debt (whether outstanding on the date hereof or hereafter
created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and that the subordination is for the
benefit of the holders of Senior Debt.

SECTION 11.02.             LIQUIDATION; DISSOLUTION; BANKRUPTCY.

         Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Issuer of any kind or
character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors in any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to the Issuer, all amounts due
or to become due under or with respect to all Senior Debt (including Accrued
Bankruptcy Interest and collateralization of all Letter of Credit Obligations)
shall first be paid in full before any payment, repurchase of or distribution of
assets is made on account of the Notes, except that the Holders may receive
Subsequent Reorganization Securities. Upon any such Insolvency or Liquidation
Proceeding, any payment or distribution of assets of the Issuer of any kind or
character, whether in cash, property or securities (other than Subsequent
Reorganization Securities), to which the Holders of the Notes or the Trustee
would be entitled shall be paid by the Issuer or by any receiver, trustee in
bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or
distribution, or by the Holders of the Notes or by the Trustee if received by
them, directly to the holders of Senior Debt (pro rata to such holders on the
basis of the amounts of Senior Debt (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest and
collateralization of all Letter of Credit Obligations) held by such holders) or
their Representative or Representatives, as their interests may appear, for
application to the payment of the Senior Debt remaining unpaid until all such
Senior Debt has been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent
payment, distribution or provision therefor to or for the holders of Senior
Debt.

SECTION 11.03.             DEFAULT ON DESIGNATED SENIOR DEBT.

         (a) In the event of and during the continuation of any default in the
payment of principal of, interest or premium, if any, on any Senior Debt, or any
Obligation owing from time to time under or in respect of Senior Debt, or if any
event of default (other than a payment default) with respect to any Senior Debt
shall have occurred and be continuing and shall have resulted in such Senior
Debt becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it
would otherwise have become due and payable, or (b) if any event of default
other than as described in clause (a) above with respect to any Designated
Senior Debt shall have occurred and be continuing permitting the holders of such
Designated Senior Debt (or their Representative or Representatives) to declare
such Designated Senior Debt due and payable prior to the date on which it would
otherwise have become due and payable, then no payment shall be made by or on
behalf of the Issuer on account of the Notes (other than payments in the form of
Subsequent Reorganization Securities) (x) in case of any payment or nonpayment
default specified in (a), unless and until such default shall have been cured or
waived in writing in accordance with the instruments governing such Senior Debt
or such acceleration shall have been rescinded or

                                     -66-

annulled, or (y) in case of any nonpayment event of default specified in (b),
during the period (a "Payment Blockage Period") commencing on the date the
Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors or the Trustee receive written notice of
such event of default (which notice shall be binding on the Trustee and the
Holders as to the occurrence of such a payment default or nonpayment event of
default) from the Credit Agent (or other holders of Designated Senior Debt or
their Representative or Representatives) and ending on the earliest of (A) 179
days after such date, (B) the date, if any, on which such Designated Senior
Debt to which such default relates is paid in full or such default is cured or
waived in writing in accordance with the instruments governing such Designated
Senior Debt by the holders of such Designated Senior Debt and (C) the date on
which the Trustee receives written notice from the Credit Agent (or other
holders of Designated Senior Debt or their Representative or Representatives),
as the case may be, terminating the Payment Blockage Period. During any
consecutive 360-day period, the aggregate of all Payment Blockage Periods shall
not exceed 179 days and there shall be a period of at least 181 consecutive
days in each consecutive 360-day period when no Payment Blockage Period is in
effect. No event of default that existed or was continuing with respect to the
Senior Debt to which notice commencing a Payment Blockage Period was given on
the date such Payment Blockage Period commenced shall be, or be made the basis
for, the commencement of any subsequent Payment Blockage Period unless such
event of default is cured or waived for a period of not less than 90
consecutive days; provided that an event of default for failure to comply with
a financial or performance covenant for an accounting period shall be deemed a
different event of default than the failure to comply with such covenant in a
prior accounting period.

SECTION 11.04.             ACCELERATION OF NOTES.

         If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default,
the Issuer shall promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the acceleration.

SECTION 11.05.             WHEN DISTRIBUTION MUST BE PAID OVER.

         If the Trustee or any Holder of a Note receives any payment or
distribution on account of any Obligations with respect to the Notes or
acquisition, repurchase, redemption, retirement or defeasance of any of the
Notes shall be made by or on behalf of the Company (including any payments or
distribution by any liquidating trustee or agent or other Person in a proceeding
referred to in Section 11.02) and received by the Trustee or any Holder at a
time when such payment or distribution was prohibited by the provisions of
Section 11.02 or 11.03 or such payment or distribution was required to be made
to holders of Senior Debt or their Representative, then, such payment or
distribution shall be received, segregated from other funds or assets and held
in trust by the Trustee or such Holder, as the case may be, for the benefit of,
and shall be promptly paid or delivered over to, the holders of Senior Debt or
their Representative, ratably in accordance with the respective amounts of the
principal of such Senior Debt, interest (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest)
thereon and all other Obligations with respect thereto held or represented by
each, until the principal of all Senior Debt, interest (including Accrued
Bankruptcy Interest) thereon and all other Obligations with respect thereto have
been paid in full and all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations have been
fully collateralized. Any distribution to the holders of Senior Debt or their
Representative of assets may be held by such holders or such Representatives as
additional collateral without any duty to

                                     -67-

<PAGE>

any Holder to liquidate or otherwise realize on such assets or to apply such
assets to any Senior Debt or other Obligations relating thereto.

         With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to
perform only such obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set
forth in this Article 11, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect
to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the
Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the
holders of Senior Debt, and shall not be liable to any such holders if the
Trustee shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders of the Notes or
the Issuer or any other Person money or assets to which any holders of Senior
Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 11, except if such payment is
made as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Trustee.

SECTION 11.06.             NOTICE BY THE ISSUER.

         The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of
any facts known to the Issuer that would cause a payment of any Obligations with
respect to the Notes to violate this Article 11, but failure to give such notice
shall not affect the subordination of the Notes to the Senior Debt as provided
in this Article.

SECTION 11.07.             SUBROGATION.

         After all Senior Debt (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest) is paid
in full and until the Notes are paid in full, Holders of the Notes shall be
subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Pari Passu Debt) to the rights of
holders of Senior Debt to receive distributions applicable to Senior Debt to the
extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders of the Notes have
been applied to the payment of Senior Debt. A distribution made under this
Article to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders
of the Notes is not, as between the Issuer and Holders of the Notes, a payment
by the Issuer on the Notes.

SECTION 11.08.             RELATIVE RIGHTS.

         This Article defines the relative rights of Holders of the Notes and
holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

         (1) impair, as between the Issuer and Holders of the Notes, the
obligations of the Issuer, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay
principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with their terms;

         (2) affect the relative rights of Holders of the Notes and creditors
of the Issuer other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt; or

         (3) prevent the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes from exercising its
available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of
holders and owners of Senior Debt to receive distributions and payments
otherwise payable to Holders of the Notes.

         If the Issuer fails because of this Article to pay principal of or
interest on a Note on the due date, the failure is still a Default or Event of
Default.

                                     -68-

<PAGE>

SECTION 11.09.             SUBORDINATION MAY NOT BE IMPAIRED BY THE ISSUER.

         No right of any holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of
the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall be impaired by any act or failure
to act by the Issuer or any Holder or by the failure of the Issuer or any Holder
to comply with this Indenture.

         Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph,
the holders of Senior Debt, or any of them, may, at any time and from time to
time, without the consent of or notice to the Holders of the Notes, without
incurring any liabilities to any Holder of any Notes and without impairing or
releasing the subordination and other benefits provided in this Indenture or the
obligations of the Holders of the Notes to the holders of the Senior Debt, even
if any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any
Holder is affected, impaired or extinguished thereby, do any one or more of the
following:

         (1) change the manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend
the time of payment of, or renew, exchange, amend, increase or alter, the terms
of any Senior Debt, any security therefor or guaranty thereof or any liability
of any obligor thereon (including any guarantor) to such holder, or any
liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or otherwise amend,
renew, exchange, extend, modify, increase or supplement in any manner any Senior
Debt or any instrument that evidences or guaranties or secures the same or any
agreement under which Senior Debt is outstanding;

         (2) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, enforce or
otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property pledged,
mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt or any liability of any obligor
thereon, to such holder, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in
respect thereof;

         (3) settle or compromise any Senior Debt or any other liability of any
obligor of the Senior Debt to such holder or any security therefor or any
liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof and apply any sums
by whomsoever paid and however realized to any liability (including, without
limitation, Senior Debt) in any manner or order; and

         (4) fail to take or to record or to otherwise perfect, for any reason
or for no reason, any lien or security interest securing Senior Debt by
whomsoever granted, exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any right or
remedy against any obligor or any guarantor or any other Person, elect any
remedy and otherwise deal freely with any obligor and any security for the
Senior Debt or any liability of any obligor to such holder or any liability
incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, it being acknowledged that
the Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any collateral or assets owned by
or purported to be owned by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries and pledged to
or purported to be pledged to the Credit Agent for the benefit of the holders of
Indebtedness under the New Credit Facility, until the payment in full of such
Designated Senior Debt and the termination of all commitments thereunder.

SECTION 11.10.             DISTRIBUTION OR NOTICE TO REPRESENTATIVE.

         Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of
Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their
Representative.

                                     -69-

<PAGE>

         Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Issuer referred to in
this Article 11, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to
rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or
upon any certificate of such Representative or of the liquidating trustee or
agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders
of the Notes for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate
in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other Indebtedness of
the Issuer, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 11.

SECTION 11.11.             RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE AND PAYING AGENT.

         Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 11 or any other
provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of
the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment or
distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue
to make payments on the Notes, unless the Trustee shall have received at its
Corporate Trust Office at least three Business Days prior to the date of such
payment written notice of facts that would cause the payment of any Obligations
with respect to the Notes to violate this Article 11; and, prior to the receipt
of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that no such
facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received such
written notice prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may
become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or other Obligations
under this Indenture), then, anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, but without limiting the rights and remedies of the holders of
Senior Debt or any trustee, fiduciary or agent thereof, the Trustee shall have
full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the
purpose for which such money was received and shall not be affected by any
notice to the contrary which may be received by it after such date, nor shall
the Trustee be charged with knowledge of the curing of any such default or the
elimination of the act or condition preventing any such payment unless and until
the Trustee shall have received an Officer's Certificate to such effect. Only
the Issuer or a Representative may give the notice. Nothing in this Article 11
shall impair the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to
Section 7.07 hereof.

         The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior
Debt with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do
the same with like rights.

SECTION 11.12.             AUTHORIZATION TO EFFECT SUBORDINATION.

         Each Holder of a Note by the Holder's acceptance thereof authorizes and
directs the Trustee on the Holder's behalf to take such action as may be
necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this
Article 11, and appoints the Trustee to act as the Holder's attorney-in-fact for
any and all such purposes, including without limitation the timely filing of a
claim for the unpaid balance of the Notes held by such Holder in the form
required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and causing such claim to
be approved. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of
debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 6.09 hereof
at least 30 days before the expiration of the time of such claim, the
Representatives of the Designated Senior Debt, including the Credit Agent, are
hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders
of the Notes.

                                     -70-

<PAGE>

SECTION 11.13.             AMENDMENTS

         Any amendment to the provisions of this Article 11 shall require the
consent of the holders of all of the Senior Debt (or the Representatives of such
holders, as applicable) whose rights would be adversely affected by such
amendment.

                                    ARTICLE 12.
                                GUARANTY OF NOTES

SECTION 12.01.             NOTE GUARANTY.

         Subject to Section 12.06 hereof, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors
hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guaranties to each Holder of a
Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its
successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this
Indenture, the Notes and the Obligations of the Issuer hereunder and thereunder,
that: (a) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be
promptly paid in full when due, subject to any applicable grace period, whether
at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the
overdue principal, premium, if any, (to the extent permitted by law) interest on
any interest, if any, on the Notes, and all other payment Obligations of the
Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly
paid in full and performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof;
and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or
any of such other Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due
or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, subject
to any applicable grace period, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration,
redemption or otherwise. Failing payment when so due of any amount so guaranteed
for whatever reason the Subsidiary Guarantors will be jointly and severally
obligated to pay the same immediately. An Event of Default under this Indenture
or the Notes shall constitute an event of default under the Note Guaranties, and
shall entitle the Holders to accelerate the Obligations of the Subsidiary
Guarantors hereunder in the same manner and to the same extent as the
Obligations of the Issuer. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree that their
Obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective 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 with respect to
any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the
Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance that might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Subsidiary
Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment,
demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or
bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the
Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note
Guaranty will not be discharged except by complete performance of the
Obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. If any Holder or the
Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the
Subsidiary Guarantors, or any Note Custodian, Trustee, liquidator or other
similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Subsidiary
Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note
Guaranty, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full
force and effect. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled
to, and hereby waives, any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in
respect of any Obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further
agrees that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the

                                     -71-

<PAGE>

Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Obligations
guarantied hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes
of this Note Guaranty, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition
preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby,
and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Obligations as
provided in Article 6 hereof, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable)
shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for the
purpose of this Note Guaranty. The Subsidiary Guarantors shall have the right to
seek contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as the
exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note
Guaranties.

SECTION 12.02.             EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF NOTE GUARANTY.

         To evidence its Note Guaranty set forth in Section 12.01, each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guaranty
substantially in the form of Exhibit B shall be endorsed by an Officer of such
Subsidiary Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and
that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Subsidiary Guarantor, by
manual or facsimile signature, by an Officer of such Subsidiary Guarantor.

         Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guaranty set
forth in Section 12.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guaranty.

         If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note
Guaranty no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the
Note on which a Note Guaranty is endorsed, the Note Guaranty shall be valid
nevertheless.

         The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication
thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Note Guaranty set forth
in this Indenture on behalf of the Subsidiary Guarantors.

SECTION 12.03.             SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC., ON
                           CERTAIN TERMS.

         (a) Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, nothing contained
in this Indenture shall prohibit a merger between a Subsidiary Guarantor and
another Subsidiary Guarantor or a merger between a Subsidiary Guarantor and the
Issuer.

         (b) Except as provided in Section 12.03(a) hereof or in a transaction
referred to in Section 12.04 hereof, no Subsidiary Guarantor may consolidate
with or merge with or into (whether or not such Subsidiary Guarantor is the
surviving Person), another corporation, Person or entity whether or not
affiliated with such Subsidiary Guarantor unless, subject to the provisions of
the following paragraph, (i) the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than such Subsidiary Guarantor) assumes all
the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to a supplemental
indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, under
the Notes and the Indenture; (ii) immediately after giving effect to such
transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; (iii) the Issuer would be
permitted, immediately after giving effect to such transaction, to incur at
least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Interest
Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first

                                     -72-

<PAGE>

paragraph of Section 4.09. The requirements of clause (iii) of this paragraph
will not apply in the case of a consolidation with or merger with or into any
other Person if the acquisition of all of the Equity Interests in such Person
would have complied with the provisions of Sections 4.07 and 4.09 hereof.

         (c) In the case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture,
executed and delivered to the Trustee and substantially in the form of Exhibit
C hereto, of the Note Guaranty endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual
performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be
performed by the Subsidiary Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to
and be substituted for the Subsidiary Guarantor with the same effect as if it
had been named herein as a Subsidiary Guarantor. Such successor Person
thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guaranties to be
endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not
have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All of the Note
Guaranties so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit
under this Indenture as the Note Guaranties theretofore and thereafter issued
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note
Guaranties had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

SECTION 12.04.             RELEASES FOLLOWING SALE OF ASSETS, MERGER, SALE OF
                           CAPITAL STOCK, ETC.

         In the event (a) of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of any Subsidiary Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation
or otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all of the capital stock of any
Subsidiary Guarantor or pursuant to a foreclosure, or (b) that the Issuer
designates a Subsidiary Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary, or such
Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Issuer, then such
Subsidiary Guarantor (in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of
such a merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all of the capital stock of such
Subsidiary Guarantor or any such designation) or the entity acquiring the
property (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all of the assets of
such Subsidiary Guarantor) shall be released and relieved of any obligations
under its Note Guaranty; provided that the Net Proceeds of such sale or other
disposition are applied in accordance with the provisions of Sections 4.10 and
4.15 hereof. In the case of a sale, assignment, lease, transfer, conveyance or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of a Subsidiary
Guarantor, upon the assumption provided for in clause (i) of Section 12.03(b)
hereof such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be discharged from all further liability
and obligation under the Indenture. Upon delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee
of an Officer's Certificate to the effect of the foregoing, the Trustee shall
execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of
any Subsidiary Guarantor from its Obligation under its Note Guaranty. Any
Subsidiary Guarantor not released from its Obligations under its Note Guaranty
shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of, premium, if any,
interest, if any, on the Notes and for the other Obligations of such Subsidiary
Guarantor under the Indenture as provided in this Article 12.

SECTION 12.05.             ADDITIONAL SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS.

         Any Person that was not a Subsidiary Guarantor on the date of this
Indenture may become a Subsidiary Guarantor by executing and delivering to the
Trustee (a) a supplemental

                                     -73-

<PAGE>

indenture in substantially the form of Exhibit C, and (b) an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized and
executed by such Person and constitutes the legal, valid, binding and
enforceable obligation of such Person (subject to such customary exceptions
concerning creditors' rights, fraudulent transfers, public policy and equitable
principles as may be acceptable to the Trustee in its discretion).

SECTION 12.06.             LIMITATION ON SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR LIABILITY.

         Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder,
hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note
Guaranty of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or
conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance
Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to
the extent applicable to any Note Guaranty. To effectuate the foregoing
intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby
irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its
Note Guaranty and this Article 12 shall be limited to the maximum amount as
will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and
fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under such
laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive
contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary
Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under
this Article 12, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under
its Note Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

SECTION 12.07.             "TRUSTEE" TO INCLUDE PAYING AGENT.

         In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have
been appointed by the Issuer and be then acting hereunder, the term "Trustee" as
used in this Article 12 shall in each case (unless the context shall otherwise
require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its
meaning as fully and for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were
named in this Article 12 in place of the Trustee.

                                   ARTICLE 13.
                         SUBORDINATION OF NOTE GUARANTY

SECTION 13.01.             AGREEMENT TO SUBORDINATE.

         The Subsidiary Guarantors agree, and each Holder by accepting a Note
irrevocably agrees, that all Guaranty Obligations shall be subordinated in right
of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 13, to the
prior payment in full of all Guarantor Senior Debt, whether outstanding on the
date hereof or thereafter incurred and that the subordination is for the benefit
of the holders of Senior Debt.

SECTION 13.02.             LIQUIDATION; DISSOLUTION; BANKRUPTCY.

         Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Subsidiary Guarantors
of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors
in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Subsidiary
Guarantor, all amounts due or to become due under or with respect to all Senior
Debt (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest and collateralization of all Letter
of Credit Obligations) shall first be paid in full before any payment,
repurchase of or

                                     -74-

<PAGE>

distribution of assets is made on account of the Notes, except that the Holders
may receive Subsequent Reorganization Securities. Upon any such Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding, any payment or distribution of assets of any Subsidiary
Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities
(other than Subsequent Reorganization Securities), to which the Holders of the
Notes or the Trustee would be entitled shall be paid by the Subsidiary
Guarantors or by any receiver, trustee-in-bankruptcy, liquidating trustee,
agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Holders of
the Notes or by the Trustee if received by them, directly to the holders of
Senior Debt (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the amounts of Senior
Debt (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest and collateralization of all Letter
of Credit Obligations) held by such holders) or their Representative or
Representatives, as their interests may appear, for application to the payment
of the Senior Debt remaining unpaid until all such Senior Debt has been paid in
full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment, distribution or provision
therefor to or for the holders of Senior Debt.

SECTION 13.03.             DEFAULT ON DESIGNATED SENIOR DEBT.

         (a) In the event of and during the continuation of any default in the
payment of principal of, interest or premium, if any, on any Senior Debt, or any
Obligation owing from time to time under or in respect of Senior Debt, or in the
event that any event of default (other than a payment default) with respect to
any Senior Debt shall have occurred and be continuing and shall have resulted in
such Senior Debt becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on
which it would otherwise have become due and payable, or (b) if any event of
default other than as described in clause (a) above with respect to any
Designated Senior Debt shall have occurred and be continuing permitting the
holders of such Designated Senior Debt (or their Representative or
Representatives) to declare such Designated Senior Debt due and payable prior to
the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, then no
payment shall be made by or on behalf of any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of
the Notes (other than payments in the form of Subsequent Reorganization
Securities) (x) in case of any payment or nonpayment default specified in (a),
unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived in writing in
accordance with the instruments governing such Senior Debt or such acceleration
shall have been rescinded or annulled, or (y) in case of any nonpayment event of
default specified in (b), during a Payment Blockage Period. During any
consecutive 360-day period, the aggregate of all Payment Blockage Periods shall
not exceed 179 days and there shall be a period of at least 181 consecutive days
in each consecutive 360-day period when no Payment Blockage Period is in effect.
No event of default that existed or was continuing with respect to the Senior
Debt to which notice commencing a Payment Blockage Period was given on the date
such Payment Blockage Period commenced shall be, or be made the basis for, the
commencement of any subsequent Payment Blockage Period unless such event of
default is cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days;
provided that an event of default for failure to comply with a financial or
performance covenant for an accounting period shall be deemed a different event
of default than the failure to comply with such covenant in a prior accounting
period.

SECTION 13.04.             ACCELERATION OF NOTES.

         If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default,
the Subsidiary Guarantor shall promptly notify such Representatives of Guarantor
Senior Debt of the acceleration.

SECTION 13.05.             WHEN DISTRIBUTION MUST BE PAID OVER.

         If the Trustee or any Holder of a Note receives any payment or
distribution on account of any Obligations with respect to the Notes or
acquisition, repurchase, redemption, retirement or defeasance of any of the
Notes shall be made by or on behalf of the Company (including any payments or
distribution by any liquidating trustee or agent or other Person in a proceeding
referred to in Section 13.02) and received by the Trustee or any Holder at a
time when such payment or distribution was prohibited by the provisions of
Section 13.02 or 13.03 or such payment or distribution was required to be made
to holders of Senior Debt or their Representative, then, such payment or
distribution shall be received, segregated from other funds or assets and held
in trust by the Trustee or such Holder, as the case may be, for the benefit of,
and shall be promptly paid or delivered over to, the holders of Senior Debt or
their Representative, ratably in accordance with the respective amounts of the
principal of such Senior Debt, interest (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest)
thereon and all other Obligations with respect thereto held or represented by
each, until the principal of all Senior Debt, interest (including Accrued
Bankruptcy Interest) thereon and all other Obligations with respect thereto have
been paid in full and all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations have been
fully collateralized. Any distribution to the holders of Senior Debt or their
Representative of assets may be held by such holders or such Representatives as
additional collateral without any duty to any Holder to liquidate or otherwise
realize on such assets or to apply such assets to any Senior Debt or other
Obligations relating thereto.

         With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to
perform only such obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set
forth in this Article 13, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect
to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the
Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the
holders of Senior Debt, and shall not be liable to any such holders if the
Trustee shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders of the Notes or
the Issuer or any other Person money or assets to which any holders of Senior
Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 13, except if such payment is
made as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Trustee.

SECTION 13.06.             NOTICE BY SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR.

         The Subsidiary Guarantors shall promptly notify the Trustee and the
Paying Agent of any facts known to the Subsidiary Guarantors that would cause a
payment of any Obligations with respect to the Notes to violate this Article 13,
but failure to give such notice shall not affect the subordination of the Notes
to the Senior Debt as provided in this Article 13.

SECTION 13.07.             SUBROGATION.

         After all Senior Debt (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest) is paid
in full and until the Notes are paid in full, Holders of the Notes shall be
subrogated (equally and ratably with all Pari Passu Debt) to the rights of
holders of Senior Debt to receive distributions applicable to Senior Debt to the
extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders of the Notes have
been applied to the payment of Senior Debt. A distribution made under this
Article 13 to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to
Holders of the Notes is not, as between the

                                     -76-

<PAGE>

Subsidiary Guarantors and Holders of the Notes, a payment by the Subsidiary
Guarantors on the Notes.

SECTION 13.08.             RELATIVE RIGHTS.

         This Article defines the relative rights of Holders of the Notes and
holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

         (1) impair, as between the Issuer and Holders of the Notes, the
obligations of the Issuer, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay
principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with their terms;

         (2) affect the relative rights of Holders of the Notes and creditors
of the Issuer other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt; or

         (3) prevent the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes from exercising its
available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of
holders and owners of Senior Debt to receive distributions and payments
otherwise payable to Holders of the Notes.

         If the Issuer fails because of this Article 13 to pay principal of or
interest on a Note on the due date, the failure is still a Default or Event of
Default.

SECTION 13.09.             SUBORDINATION MAY NOT BE IMPAIRED BY SUBSIDIARY
                           GUARANTOR.

         No right of any holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of
the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall be impaired by any act or failure
to act by the Issuer or any Holder or by the failure of the Issuer or any Holder
to comply with this Indenture.

         Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph,
the holders of Senior Debt, or any of them, may, at any time and from time to
time, without the consent of or notice to the Holders of the Notes, without
incurring any liabilities to any Holder of any Notes and without impairing or
releasing the subordination and other benefits provided in this Indenture or the
obligations of the Holders of the Notes to the holders of the Senior Debt, even
if any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any
Holder is affected, impaired or extinguished thereby, do any one or more of the
following:

         (1) change the manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend
the time of payment of, or renew, exchange, amend, increase or alter, the terms
of any Senior Debt, any security therefor or guaranty thereof or any liability
of any obligor thereon (including any guarantor) to such holder, or any
liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or otherwise amend,
renew, exchange, extend, modify, increase or supplement in any manner any Senior
Debt or any instrument that evidences or guaranties or secures the same or any
agreement under which Senior Debt is outstanding;

         (2) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, enforce or
otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property pledged,
mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt

                                     -77-

<PAGE>

or any liability of any obligor thereon, to such holder, or any liability
incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof;

         (3) settle or compromise any Senior Debt or any other liability of any
obligor of the Senior Debt to such holder or any security therefor or any
liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof and apply any sums
by whomsoever paid and however realized to any liability (including, without
limitation, Senior Debt) in any manner or order; and

         (4) fail to take or to record or to otherwise perfect, for any reason
or for no reason, any lien or security interest securing Senior Debt by
whomsoever granted, exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any right or
remedy against any obligor or any guarantor or any other Person, elect any
remedy and otherwise deal freely with any obligor and any security for the
Senior Debt or any liability of any obligor to such holder or any liability
incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, it being acknowledged that
the Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any collateral or assets owned by
or purported to be owned by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries and pledged to
or purported to be pledged to the Credit Agent for the benefit of the holders of
Indebtedness under the New Credit Facility, until the payment in full of such
Designated Senior Debt and the termination of all commitments thereunder.

SECTION 13.10.             DISTRIBUTION OR NOTICE TO REPRESENTATIVE.

         Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of
Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their
Representative.

         Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Issuer referred to in
this Article 13, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to
rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or
upon any certificate of such Representative or of the liquidating trustee or
agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders
of the Notes for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate
in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other Indebtedness of
the Issuer, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 13.

SECTION 13.11.             RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE AND PAYING AGENT.

         Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 13 or any other
provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of
the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment or
distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue
to make payments on the Notes, unless the Trustee shall have received at its
Corporate Trust Office at least three Business Days prior to the date of such
payment written notice of facts that would cause the payment of any Obligations
with respect to the Notes to violate this Article; and, prior to the receipt of
any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that no such
facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received such
written notice prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may
become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or other Obligations
under this Indenture), then, anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, but without limiting the rights and

                                     -78-

<PAGE>

remedies of the holders of Senior Debt or any trustee, fiduciary or agent
thereof, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money
and to apply the same to the purpose for which such money and to apply the same
to the purpose for which such money was received and shall not be affected by
any notice to the contrary which may be received by it after such date, nor
shall the Trustee be charged with knowledge of the curing of any such default
or the elimination of the act or condition preventing any such payment unless
and until the Trustee shall have received an Officer's Certificate to such
effect. Only the Issuer or a Representative may give the notice. Nothing in
this Article 13 shall impair the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under
or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof.

         The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior
Debt with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do
the same with like rights.

SECTION 13.12.             AUTHORIZATION TO EFFECT SUBORDINATION.

         Each Holder of a Note by the Holder's acceptance thereof authorizes and
directs the Trustee on the Holder's behalf to take such action as may be
necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this
Article 13, and appoints the Trustee to act as the Holder's attorney-in-fact for
any and all such purposes, including without limitation the timely filing of a
claim for the unpaid balance of the Notes held by such Holder in the form
required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and causing such claim to
be approved. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of
debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 6.09 hereof
at least 30 days before the expiration of the time of such claim, the
Representatives of the Designated Senior Debt, including the Credit Agent, are
hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders
of the Notes.

SECTION 13.13.             AMENDMENTS.

         Any amendment to the provisions of this Article 13 shall require the
consent of the holders of all of the Senior Debt (or the Representatives of such
holders, as applicable) whose rights would be adversely affected by such
amendment.

SECTION 14.02.             NOTICES.

         Any notice or communication by the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors or
the Trustee to the others is duly given if in writing and delivered in person or

         THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITORY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE
GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL
OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

         Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them
in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. INTEREST. AMF Bowling Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation, or its
successors (the "Issuer"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of
this Note at the rate of 13.00% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest in
United States dollars (except as otherwise provided herein) semi-annually in
arrears on March 1 and September 1, commencing on September 1, 2002, or if any
such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an
"Interest Payment Date"). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most
recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid,
from the date of issuance; provided however, that if there is no existing
Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is
authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next
succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next
succeeding Interest Payment Date, except in the case of the original issuance of
Notes, in which case interest shall accrue from the date of authentication. The
Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding
under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate equal to 1% per annum
in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent
lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest
(without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent
lawful.

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except
defaulted interest), if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders at the
close of business on the February 15 or August 15 next preceding the Interest
Payment Date, even if such Notes are cancelled after such record date and on or
before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the
Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to
principal, premium, if any, and interest, at the office or agency of the Issuer
maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York,
or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed
to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided
that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds

--------------------
/2/ This paragraph should be included only if the Note is issued as Global
Notes.

                                     A-3

<PAGE>

shall be required with respect to principal of, and interest, premium, if any,
on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have
provided written wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the Paying Agent.
Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America
as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts.

3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wilmington Trust Company, the Trustee
under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar.  The Issuer may
change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.  The Issuer
or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

4. INDENTURE. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of March
8, 2002 (the "Indenture") among the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the
Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those
made a part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as
amended (15 U.S. Code ss.ss. 77aaa-77bbbb) (the "TIA"). The Notes are subject to
all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a
statement of such terms. The Notes are general unsecured Obligations of the
Issuer limited to $150,000,000 in aggregate principal amount.

5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. (a) Except as set forth in the next paragraph, the Notes
shall not be redeemable at the Issuer's option prior to March 1, 2005.
Thereafter, the Notes shall be redeemable at the option of the Issuer, in whole
or in part, at any time upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at
the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth
below plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable redemption
date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on March 1 of the
years indicated below:

Year                                                              Percentage
2005............................................................    106.5%
2006............................................................    103.25%
2007 and thereafter.............................................    100.00%

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) at any time prior to March 1,
2005, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the
initially outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes at a redemption price
equal to 113.00% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, thereon to the redemption date, with the cash proceeds of one
or more Public Equity Offerings; provided that, in each case, at least 65% of
the initially outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes remains
outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and provided,
further, that such redemption shall occur within 75 days of the date of the
closing of such Public Equity Offering; and (ii) at any time within 75 days
after the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer may, but shall in no
event be required to, redeem 100% but not less than 100% of the outstanding
Notes at a redemption price equal to the lower of 110.00% of the principal
amount thereof and the amount at which the Issuer could redeem the Notes
pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
thereon to the redemption date.

                                     A-4

<PAGE>

6. MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Issuer shall not be required to make
mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes,
provided that this paragraph 6 shall not be deemed to affect the obligations of
the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.10 or 4.15 of the Indenture.

7. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption shall be mailed at least 30
days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose
Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations
larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of
$1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and
after the redemption date, interest, if any, ceases to accrue on the Notes or
portions thereof called for redemption, unless the Issuer defaults in making
such redemption payment.

8. SUBORDINATION. The Notes are subordinated to Senior Debt, which is all
Indebtedness and other Obligations specified below payable directly or
indirectly by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, whether
outstanding on the date of the Indenture or thereafter created, incurred or
assumed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries: (i) the principal
of, interest on and all other Obligations related to the New Credit Facility
(including without limitation all loans, letters of credit and other extensions
of credit under the New Credit Facility, and all expenses, fees, reimbursements,
indemnities and other amounts owing pursuant to the New Credit Facility); (ii)
amounts payable in respect of any Hedging Obligations; (iii) all Indebtedness
not prohibited by Section 4.09 of the Indenture that is not expressly pari passu
with or subordinated to the Notes, and (iv) all permitted renewals, extensions,
refundings or refinancings thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
the foregoing, Senior Debt will not include (i) Indebtedness of the Issuer or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to any other Restricted Subsidiary which is
not a Subsidiary Guarantor, (ii) any Indebtedness which by the express terms of
the agreement or instrument creating, evidencing or governing the same is junior
or subordinate in right of payment to any item of Senior Debt, (iii) any trade
payable arising from the purchase of goods or materials or for services obtained
in the ordinary course of business, or (iv) Indebtedness incurred in violation
of the Indenture. To the extent provided in the Indenture, Senior Debt must be
paid before the Notes may be paid. The Issuer agrees, and each Holder by
accepting a Note consents and agrees, to the subordination provided in the
Indenture and authorizes the Trustee to give it effect.

9. PURCHASE AT OPTION OF HOLDER.

(a) If there shall at any time or times occur a Change of Control
Triggering Event, then the Issuer shall notify the Holders in writing of such
occurrence and shall make an offer to purchase (the "Change of Control Offer"),
not later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the
"Purchase Date"), all Notes then outstanding at a purchase price equal to 101%
of the principal amount thereof outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, to the Purchase Date.

(b) The Issuer shall provide the Trustee with notice of the Change of
Control Offer at least 60 days before any such Change of Control Payment Date
and at least 10 days before the notice of any Change of Control Offer is mailed
to Holders. Notice of a Change of Control Offer shall be mailed by the Issuer
not less than 45 days or more than 60 days before the Change of Control

                                     A-5

<PAGE>

Payment Date to the Holders at their last registered addresses with a copy to
the Trustee and the Paying Agent. The Change of Control Offer shall remain open
from the time of mailing until five days before the Change of Control Payment
Date.  The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to
enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer,
pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture.

(c) Pursuant to Section 4.15 of the Indenture, holders of the Notes that
are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive a Change of Control Offer
from the Issuer prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such
Notes purchased by completing the form titled "Option of Holder to Elect
Purchase" appearing below.

10. ASSET SALES Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from
an Asset Sale, the Issuer may apply such Net Proceeds at its option, (a) to
repay Senior Debt, (b) to secure Letter of Credit Obligations to the extent
letters of credit have not been drawn upon or returned unwithdrawn, (c) to the
acquisition of assets to be used in a Permitted Business and/or (d) to an
investment in properties or assets that replace the properties and assets that
are the subject of such Asset Sale and/or, in the case of a sale of a bowling
center or bowling centers, may deem such Net Proceeds to have been applied
pursuant to this clause (d) to the extent of any expenditures made to acquire,
renovate, expand or construct one or more bowling centers within 365 days
preceding the date of the Asset Sale. Pending the final application of any such
Net Proceeds, the Issuer may temporarily reduce the New Credit Facility or
otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this
Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as
provided in the first sentence of this paragraph will be deemed to constitute
"Excess Proceeds." When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0
million, the Issuer shall be required to make an offer to all Holders (an "Asset
Sale Offer") to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be
purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount
equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, thereon to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set
forth in Section 3.09 of the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount
of Notes tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess
Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate
purposes. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders
thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the
Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis; provided, however, that the Issuer
shall not be obligated to purchase Notes in denominations other than integral
multiples of $1,000. Upon completion of such offer to purchase, the amount of
Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

11. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form
without coupons. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may
be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may
require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and
transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees
required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or
register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption,
except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, it
need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days
before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes or during the period
between a record date and the corresponding interest payment date. Definitive
Notes shall be in denominations of $1,000 and integral

                                     A-6

<PAGE>

multiples thereof, except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section
2.06(d)(ix) of the Indenture.  Participants and Indirect Participants may hold
beneficial interests in the Global Note in denominations of $1.00 and integral
multiples thereof, provided, however, that each Note or Notes issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of any Note, or pursuant to Section 2.10
or Section 3.06 of the Indenture, shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 or
integral multiples thereof, except that not more than one (1) new Note so being
issued in respect of the Note being surrendered (the "surrendered Note") may be
in a denomination that is not $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Notes may
not be surrendered for combination into a Note with a principal amount that is
not $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof.

12. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated
as its owner for all purposes, subject to the provisions of the Indenture and
the Notes relating to record dates for the payment of interest.

13. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to the following paragraphs,
the Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of
the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or
exchange offer for the Notes), and any existing Default or Event of Default
(other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting
from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision
of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including consents
obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes). In
addition, any amendment to Article 11 or Article 13 of the Indenture requires
the consent of the holders of all Senior Debt (or the Representatives of such
holders, as applicable) whose rights would be adversely affected by such
amendment.

         Without the consent of any Holder, the Issuer and the Trustee may amend
or supplement the Indenture or the Notes: to cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency; to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of
certificated Notes; to provide for the assumption and discharge of the Issuer's
and the Subsidiary Guarantors' obligations to Holders in the case of a merger or
consolidation pursuant to Article 5 or Article 12 of the Indenture, as
applicable; to make any change that would provide any additional rights or
benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under
the Indenture of any such Holder; to comply with requirements of the Commission
in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA;
or to allow any Subsidiary Guarantor to Guaranty the Notes.

14. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default include: (i) default for 30
days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes (whether or not prohibited
by the subordination provisions of the Indenture); (ii) default in payment when
due of the principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes (whether or not
prohibited by the subordination provisions of the Indenture); (iii) failure of
the Issuer for 30 days after notice to comply with Section 4.10 or 4.15 or
Article 5 of the Indenture; (iv) failure of the Issuer for 60 days after notice
to comply with any of their other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes; (v)
default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be
issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money
borrowed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of
which is Guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) whether
such

                                     A-7

<PAGE>

Indebtedness or Guaranty now exists, or is created after the date of the
Indenture, which default is caused by a failure to pay principal at final
maturity or results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated
Maturity and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness,
together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness the Stated
Maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $25.0 million or more;
(vi) failure by the Issuer or its Significant Subsidiaries to pay final
judgments aggregating in excess of $25.0 million, which judgments are not paid,
discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days after entry thereof; or (vii)
certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer or any of
its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a
whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary.

15. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH THE ISSUER. The Trustee, in its individual or any
other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services
for the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors or its Affiliates, and may otherwise
deal with the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors or its Affiliates, as if it were
not the Trustee.

16. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No director, officer, employee, partner,
incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the
Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note
Guaranties or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes.

17. AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the
manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

18. ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a
Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT
(= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of
survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (=
Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

19. CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the
Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused
CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers
in notices of redemption as a convenience to the Holders. No representation is
made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as
contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the
other identification numbers placed thereon.

                               SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY

         Subject to Section 12.06 of the Indenture, each Subsidiary Guarantor
hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guaranties to each Holder of a
Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its
successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the
Indenture, the Notes and the Obligations of the Issuer under the Notes or under
the Indenture, that: (a) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if
any, on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, subject to any
applicable grace period, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or
otherwise, and interest on overdue principal, premium, if any (to the extent
permitted by law), interest on any interest, if any, on the Notes and all other
payment Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee under the
Indenture or under the Notes will be promptly paid in full and performed, all in
accordance with the terms thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of
payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other payment Obligations, the
same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the
terms of the extension or renewal, subject to any applicable grace period,
whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise. Failing
payment when so due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the
Subsidiary Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same
immediately.

         The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor to the Holders and to the
Trustee pursuant to this Subsidiary Guaranty and the Indenture are expressly set
forth in Article 12 of the Indenture, and reference is hereby made to such
Indenture for the precise terms of this Subsidiary Guaranty. The terms of
Article 12 of the Indenture are incorporated herein by reference. This
Subsidiary Guaranty is subject to release as and to the extent provided in
Section 12.04 of the Indenture.

         This is a continuing Guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect
and shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor and its successors and
assigns to the extent set forth in the Indenture until full and final payment of
all of the Issuer's Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture and shall
inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the
Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder
or the Trustee, the rights and privileges herein conferred upon that party shall
automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all
subject to the terms and conditions hereof. This is a Subsidiary Guaranty of
payment and not a guarantee of collection.

         This Subsidiary Guaranty shall not be valid or obligatory for any
purpose until the certificate of authentication on the Note upon which this
Subsidiary Guaranty is noted shall have been executed by the Trustee under the
Indenture by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers.

         The Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder,
hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note
Guaranty of the Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or
conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance
Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to
the extent applicable to any Note Guaranty. To effectuate the foregoing
intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantor hereby
irrevocably agree that the obligations

                                     B-1

<PAGE>

of the Subsidiary Guarantor under the Note Guaranty and Article 12 of the
Indenture shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect
to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the
Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect
to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made
by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations
of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under Article 12 of the Indenture, result in
the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor under the Note Guaranty not
constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

         Capitalized terms used herein have the same meanings given in the
Indenture unless otherwise indicated.

         WHEREAS, Section 12.05 of the Indenture provides that under certain
circumstances the Issuer may cause, and Section 12.03 of the Indenture provides
that under certain circumstances the Issuer must cause, certain of its
subsidiaries to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture
pursuant to which such subsidiaries shall unconditionally guarantee all of the
Issuer's Obligations under the Notes pursuant to a Note Guaranty on the terms
and conditions set forth herein; and

         WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is
authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and

reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note
waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes.

        2.      Demand Registrations.
                --------------------

                (a)     Demand by Holders.
                        -----------------

                        (i)    Following the end of the period ending 180 days
following the Effective Date, each Initial Holder or group of Initial Holders
may make a written request to the Company for registration of all or any part of
the Registrable Securities held by such requesting Holder; provided that either:

to be registered (x) have an estimated market value of at least $5 million in
the aggregate and (y) constitute all of such requesting Holder's Registrable
Securities. Any such requested registration shall hereinafter be referred to as
a "Demand Registration." Each request for a Demand Registration shall specify
   -------------------
the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities to be registered and the intended
methods of disposition thereof. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and
applicable law, if the Company meets the requirements for filing a Shelf
Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, the Company, upon
the request of such Initial Holder in its request for a Demand Registration,
shall be required to register the offering of the Registrable Securities so
requested by means of a Shelf Registration Statement.

                        (ii)   Within twenty (20) days following receipt of any
request for a Demand Registration, the Company shall deliver written notice of
such request to all other Holders of Registrable Securities. Thereafter, subject
to Section 2(e), the Company shall include in such Demand Registration any
additional Registrable Securities which the Holder or Holders thereof have
requested in writing be included in such Demand Registration, provided that all
                                                              --------
requests therefor have been received by the Company within twenty (20) days of
the Company's having given the applicable notice to such Holder or Holders. All
such requests shall specify the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities to be
registered and the intended method or methods of distribution of the same. The
Company also may elect to include in such registration additional securities of
the Company to be registered thereunder, including securities to be sold for the
Company's own account or for the account of Persons who are not Holders.

                        (iii)  The Company shall, subject to the terms hereof
and applicable law, use its reasonable best efforts to file a registration
statement relating to a Demand Registration as promptly as practicable following
receipt of a request for a

                                     - 4 -

<PAGE>

Demand Registration in accordance with Section 2(a)(i), but in any case, within
ninety (90) days after receipt of such request, and shall use its reasonable
best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective under
the Securities Act as soon as practicable thereafter and to keep such
registration statement effective for not less than ninety (90) days (or such
shorter period during which a prospectus is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act).

          (b) Limitations on Demand Registration; Effective Registration. In no
              ----------------------------------------------------------
event shall the Company be required to effect more than three (3) Demand
Registrations requested by each Initial Holder unless the Company is eligible to
file a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act (a "Short
                                                                       -----
Form Registration Statement"), in which event the Company shall be required to
---------------------------
effect no more than five (5) Demand Registrations requested by each Initial
Holder in the aggregate, including any Demand Registrations requested by such
Holder before the Company was eligible to file a Short Form Registration
Statement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for
purposes of the foregoing sentence, (i) AMF Debt Investors, LLC and AMF Debt
Investors II, LLC together shall be treated as a single Initial Holder and (ii)
AG Capital Funding Partners, L.P. and Silver Oaks Capital, L.L.C. together shall
be treated as a single Initial Holder.

          In addition, the Company shall not be required to file a registration
statement for a Demand Registration (i) at any time during the 120-day period
following the effective date of another such registration statement, or (ii)
during the period commencing on the seventh day prior to the effective date of
an offering by the Company that is registered under the Securities Act and
ending on the ninetieth day after such offering is completed. A registration
will not count as a Demand Registration under this Agreement until the related
registration statement becomes effective and has remained effective for the
period of time specified in Section 2(a)(iii).

          (c) Suspension of Registration. If the filing, initial effectiveness
              --------------------------
or continued use of a registration statement in respect of a Demand Registration
at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would
require the inclusion in such registration statement of audited financial
statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company's
reasonable control, the Company may, upon giving written notice of such action
to the Holders holding Registrable Securities included or proposed to be
included in such Demand Registration, delay the filing or initial effectiveness
of, or suspend use of, such registration statement for the shortest period of
time determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose (a
"Demand Suspension"); provided, however, that the Company shall not be permitted
 -----------------    --------  -------
to exercise a Demand Suspension (i) more than one time during any twelve (12)
month period or (ii) for a period exceeding ninety (90) days on any one
occasion. In the event of a Demand Suspension, the Holders agree to suspend,
immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, any sale or
offer to sell the Registrable Securities, and the use of the prospectus related
to the Demand Registration in connection with any such sale or offer to sell
Registrable Securities, and agree not to disclose to any other Person the fact
that the Company has exercised a Demand

                                     - 5 -

<PAGE>

Suspension or any related facts. The Company shall promptly notify the Holders
holding Registrable Securities affected by any Demand Suspension upon the
termination of such Demand Suspension.

          (d) Underwritten Offering. If the Holders holding not less than a
              ---------------------
majority of the Registrable Securities included in any offering pursuant to a
Demand Registration so elect by written request to the Company, such offering
shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering. Holders holding a majority of
the Registrable Securities included in such Underwritten Offering shall, after
consulting with the Company, have the right to select the managing underwriter
or underwriters for the offering, subject to the right of the Company to approve
such managing underwriter or underwriters (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld) and to select one co-managing underwriter reasonably
acceptable to such Holders.

          (e) Priority of Securities Registered Pursuant to Demand
              ----------------------------------------------------
Registrations. If the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed
-------------
offering of Registrable Securities included in a Demand Registration inform the
Holders of such Registrable Securities and the Company in writing that, in its
or their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such
Demand Registration (including securities of the Company for its own account or
for the account of other Persons which are not Holders) exceeds the number which
can be sold in such offering without being likely to have an adverse effect on
the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for
the securities offered, the Company will include in such registration all of the
Registrable Securities sought to be registered therein by the Holders and only
such lesser number of other securities requested to be included for the account
of the Company or for the account of other Persons which are not Holders as
shall not, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters, be likely
to have such an effect. In the event that, despite the reduction of the number
of securities to be offered for the account of the Company or for the account of
Persons which are not Holders in such registration pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence, the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such
registration exceeds the number which, in the opinion of the managing
underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having the adverse effect
referred to above, the number of Registrable Securities that can be included
without having such an adverse effect shall be allocated pro rata among the
                                                         --- ----
Holders which have requested participation in the Demand Registration (based,
for each such Holder, on the percentage (such Holder's "Allocation Percentage")
                                                        ---------------------
derived by dividing (i) the number of Registrable Securities which such Holder
has requested to include in such Demand Registration by (ii) the aggregate
number of Registrable Securities which all such Holders have requested to
include).

          (f) Registration Statement Form. Registrations under this Section 2
              ---------------------------
shall be on such appropriate registration form of the Commission (i) as shall be
selected by the Company and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Holders
holding a majority of Registrable Securities requesting participation in the
Demand Registration and (ii) as shall permit the disposition of the Registrable
Securities in accordance with the intended

                                     - 6 -

<PAGE>

method or methods of disposition specified in the applicable Holders' requests
for such registration.

          3.   Piggyback Registration.
               ----------------------

               (a)   Participation.
                     -------------

                     (i)   If the Company at any time proposes to file a
registration statement with respect to any offering of equity securities for its
own account or for the account of any holders of its securities on Form S-1, S-2
or S-3 or any successor or similar form(s) (other than (A) a registration solely
for registration of securities in connection with an employee benefit plan or
dividend reinvestment plan or a merger or consolidation or incidental to an
issuance of securities under Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (B) a
registration on any registration form which does not permit secondary sales or
does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be
included in a registration statement covering the sale of Registrable Securities
(other than information as to the selling stockholders and their intended method
or methods of disposition)), then, as soon as practicable (but in no event less
than fifteen (15) days prior to the proposed date of filing such registration
statement with the Commission), the Company shall give written notice of such
proposed filing to all Holders of Registrable Securities and such notice shall
offer the Holders the opportunity to register such number of Registrable
Securities as each such Holder may request in writing (a "Piggyback
                                                          ---------
Registration"). Subject to Section 3(b), the Company shall include in such
------------
registration statement all such Registrable Securities with respect to which the
Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within fifteen (15)
days after the Company's notice has been given ("Included Registrable
                                                 --------------------
Securities"). If at any time after giving written notice of its intention to
----------
register any equity securities and prior to the effective date of the
registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company
shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such
equity securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such
determination to each Holder holding Included Registrable Securities and, (x) in
the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation
to register any Included Registrable Securities in connection with such
registration, and (y) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall
be permitted to delay registering any Included Registrable Securities for the
same period as the delay in registering such other equity securities. The
Holders agree not to disclose to any other Person the fact that such
determination of the Company not to register or to delay registration of equity
securities or any related facts.

                     (ii)  If the offering pursuant to a Piggyback Registration
is to be an Underwritten Offering, then each Holder making a request for its
Registrable Securities to be included therein must, and the Company shall use
its reasonable best efforts to make such arrangements with the underwriters so
that each such Holder may, participate in such Underwritten Offering on the same
terms as other Persons selling securities in such Underwritten Offering. If the
offering pursuant to such registration is to be on any other basis, then each
Holder making a request for a Piggyback Registration

                                     - 7 -

<PAGE>

pursuant to this Section 3(a) must participate in such offering on such basis.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, any Holder
participating through a Piggyback Registration shall have no right to change the
intended method or methods of disposition otherwise applicable.

               (b)   Priority of Piggyback Registration. If the managing
                     ----------------------------------
underwriter or underwriters of any proposed offering of securities included in a
Piggyback Registration informs the Holders holding Included Registrable
Securities in writing that, in its or their opinion, the total number of
securities which such Holders and any other Persons intend to include in such
offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being
likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the
securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the securities
to be included in such registration shall be allocated as follows:

                     (i)   first, one hundred (100) percent of the securities
                           -----
that the Company or any Person exercising a contractual right to demand
registration has proposed to sell shall be included therein;

                     (ii)  second, and only if all the securities referenced in
                           ------
clause (i) have been included, the number of Included Registrable Securities
that, in the opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without
having such adverse effect shall be included therein, with such number to be
allocated pro rata among the Holders of Included Registrable Securities (based,
          --- ----
for each such Holder, on such Holder's Allocation Percentage); provided,
                                                               --------
however, that if as a result of the provisions of this Section 3(b), any Holder
-------
shall not be entitled to include at least fifty (50) percent of such Holder's
Included Registrable Securities, such Holder may withdraw such Holder's request
to include all, or any number of such Registrable Securities in such
registration statement no later than twenty (20) days prior to its
effectiveness; and

                     (iii) third, and only if all of the Registrable Securities
                           -----
referenced in clauses (i) and (ii) have been included, any other equity
securities eligible for inclusion in such registration which, in the opinion of
such underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect shall be
included therein.

          4.   Black-out Periods. In the event of (i) a registration by the
               -----------------
Company involving the offering and sale by the Company of its equity securities
or securities convertible into or exchangeable for its equity securities or (ii)
an Underwritten Offering involving the offering and sale by Holders of
Registrable Securities, the Holders agree, if requested by the Company (or, in
the case of any Underwritten Offering, by the managing underwriter or
underwriters), not to effect any public sale or distribution (including any sale
pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of any securities of the Company
(except, in each case, as part of the applicable registration, if permitted)
which securities are the same as or similar to those being registered in
connection with such registration, or which are convertible into or exchangeable
or exercisable for such securities, during the period beginning seven (7) days
before and ending 90 days (or such longer period up to 180 days if so requested
by such managing underwriter or

                                     - 8 -

<PAGE>

underwriters) after, the effective date of the registration statement filed in
connection with such registration, to the extent such Holders are timely
notified in writing by the Company or the managing underwriter or underwriters;
provided, that, in each case, the Company's executive officers and directors
have entered into similar agreements for the same period.

          5.   Registration Procedures.
               -----------------------

               (a)   In connection with the Company's registration obligations

qualification of the Registrable Securities for offering or sale in any
jurisdiction or the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose;

                     (v)    promptly notify each selling Holder and the managing
underwriter or underwriters, if any, when the Company becomes aware of the
occurrence of any event as a result of which the applicable registration
statement or prospectus (as then in effect) contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
therein (in the case of the prospectus and any preliminary prospectus, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading or, if for any
other reason it shall be necessary to amend or supplement such registration
statement or prospectus in order to comply with the Securities Act and, in
either case as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter, prepare and file
with the Commission a post-effective amendment or supplement to such
registration statement or prospectus or any document incorporated therein by

underwriter, if any, without charge, as many conformed copies as such Holder or
managing underwriter may reasonably request of the applicable registration
statement, including all documents incorporated by reference therein or exhibits

                     (ix)   deliver to each selling Holder and each managing
underwriter, if any, without charge, as many copies of the applicable prospectus
(including each preliminary prospectus) as such Holder or managing underwriter

                        --------
qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so
qualified or (B) to take any action which would subject it to taxation or
general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
subject;

                     (xi)   cooperate with the selling Holders and the managing
underwriter, underwriters or agent, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation
and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and
not bearing any restrictive legends;

               (b)   The Company may require each selling Holder as to which any
registration is being effected to furnish to the Company such information

such Holder's Registrable Securities and such other information relating to such

amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by
reference therein) or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a

therein (in the case of a prospectus or preliminary prospectus, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made) not misleading (each, a "Loss" and
                                                                   ----
collectively "Losses"); provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable
              ------    --------  -------
to any Participant in any such case to the extent that any such Loss is caused
by written information furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use
in the preparation thereof, or if such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission is corrected in an amendment or
supplement to such prospectus which has been made available to the Holders and
the relevant Holder fails to deliver such prospectus as so amended or
supplemented, if such delivery is required under applicable law or the
applicable rules of any securities exchange, prior to or concurrently with the
sales of the Registrable Securities to the Person asserting such Loss.

          (b) Indemnification by the Holders. Each selling Holder agrees
              ------------------------------
(severally and not jointly) to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers and employees and
each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act
and the Securities Exchange Act) from and against any and all Losses to the
extent, but only to the extent, that any such Loss is caused by, arises out of
or is based upon any information furnished in writing by such selling Holder to
the Company specifically for inclusion in any registration statement under which
such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act (including
any final, preliminary or summary prospectus contained therein or any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference
therein) and was not corrected in a subsequent writing prior to or concurrently
with the sale of the Registrable Securities to the Person asserting such Loss.
The liability of any Holder under this paragraph shall in no event exceed the
amount by which proceeds received by such Holder from sales of Registrable
Securities giving rise to such obligations exceeds the amount of any Loss which
such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue
statement or omission.

          (c) Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to
              ---------------------------
indemnification hereunder (an "Indemnified Party") shall (i) give prompt written
                               -----------------
notice to

                                     - 14 -

<PAGE>

the Person from whom such indemnification may be sought (the "Indemnifying
                                                              ------------
Party") of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification, provided,
-----                                                                --------
however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve
-------
it of any obligation or liability which it may have hereunder or otherwise
except to the extent it is materially prejudiced by such failure, and (ii)
permit such Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the
                                                  --------  -------
Indemnified Party shall have the right to select and employ separate counsel and
to participate in the defense of such claim, and the fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (A) the
Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the
Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within
a reasonable time after having received notice of such claim from the
Indemnified Party and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party, (C) in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party,
based upon advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claims or (D)
the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that
there may be legal defenses available to it or other Indemnified Parties that
are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party
(in which case, if the Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in
writing that the Indemnified Party elects to employ separate counsel at the
expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the
right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party).
If such defense is assumed by the Indemnifying Party, or if such defense is not
assumed by the Indemnifying Party but the Indemnifying Party acknowledges that
the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnifying
Party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that an
                                                           --------
Indemnifying Party shall not be required to consent to any settlement involving
the imposition of equitable remedies or involving the imposition of any material
obligations on such Indemnifying Party other than financial obligations for
which such Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder. If the Indemnifying
Party assumes the defense, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle
such action without the consent of the Indemnified Party; provided, that the
                                                          --------
Indemnifying Party shall be required to obtain the consent of the Indemnified
Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) if the settlement
includes any admission of wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnified Party or any
equitable remedies or restriction on the Indemnified Party or its officers,
directors or employees. No Indemnifying Party shall consent to entry of any
judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional
term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party
of an unconditional release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation. An Indemnifying Party (or, as the case may be, Indemnifying Parties)
shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same
jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges
of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any
one time from all Indemnified Parties collectively unless (x) the employment of
more than one counsel has been authorized in writing by such Indemnifying Party
(or Indemnifying Parties) or (y) a conflict exists or may exist (based on advice
of counsel to an Indemnified Party) between such Indemnified Party and other
Indemnified Parties, in

                                     - 15 -

<PAGE>

each of which cases the Indemnifying party (or Indemnifying Parties) shall be
obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such additional counsel or
counsels. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
the Indemnified Party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such
Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities.

          (d) Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for
              ------------
in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 7 is unavailable to an Indemnified
Party or is insufficient to hold it harmless as contemplated by paragraphs (a)
and (b) of this Section 7, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Loss in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying
Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other. The relative fault
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission
to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying
Party or the Indemnified Party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue
statement or omission. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7(d) to the
contrary, no Indemnifying Party (other than the Company) shall be required
pursuant to this Section 7(d) to contribute any amount in excess of the amount
by which the proceeds (less underwriting fees and discounts) received by such
Indemnifying Party from the sale of Registrable Securities in the offering to
which the Losses of the Indemnified Parties relate exceeds the amount of any
damages which such Indemnifying Party has otherwise been required to pay by
reason of such untrue statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7(d)
were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that
                   --- ----
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the
preceding sentences. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within
the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. If indemnification is available under this Section 7, the
Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify each Indemnified Party to the fullest
extent provided in Sections 7(a) and 7(b) hereof without regard to the relative
fault of said Indemnifying Parties or Indemnified Party.

          8. Compliance with Rule 144. The Company shall use its best efforts to
             ------------------------
file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the
Securities Exchange Act so long as the Company is obligated to file such
reports, and it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably
request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to
sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within
the limitation of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time or (b) any similar rules or
regulations hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the written request of any
Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to
whether it has complied with such requirements.

                                     - 16 -

<PAGE>

          9. Underwriting Agreements. If requested by the underwriters for any
             -----------------------
Underwritten Offering requested by Holders pursuant to Section 2, the Company
and the Holders of Registrable Securities to be included therein shall enter
into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters, such agreement to be
reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Company, the Holders
holding a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in such
Underwritten Offering and the underwriters, and to contain such terms and
conditions as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type (such
agreement, an "Underwriting Agreement"). No Initial Holder shall be required to
               ----------------------
enter into an Underwriting Agreement unless, at such Initial Holder's request,
any or all of the representations and warranties made by, and the other
agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such
underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Initial Holder.
No Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to, or
agreements with, the Company or the underwriters other than (i) representations
and warranties contained in a writing furnished by such Holder expressly for use
in such registration statement, (ii) representations, warranties and agreements
regarding such Holder, the Registrable Securities and such Holder's intended
method of distribution and (iii) any other representation, warranty or agreement
required by law. The Holders holding any Registrable Securities to be included
in any Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 3 shall enter into such an
underwriting agreement at the request of the Company.

          10. Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided in this
              ----------------------
Agreement, this Agreement may only be amended, modified and supplemented by, and
any waivers or consents to departure from the provisions of this Agreement shall
be effective only upon, receipt of the written consent of: (a)(i) in the case of
an amendment, modification, supplement, consent or waiver that waives a request
for a Demand Registration previously made or reduces the number of Demand
Registrations available, each Initial Holder affected by such amendment,
modification, supplement, consent or waiver, and (ii) in the case of any other
amendment, modification, supplement, consent or waiver, as applicable, each
Initial Holder affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, consent or
waiver, provided, that such Initial Holder owns at least 100,000 Registrable
Securities; (b) the Company; and (c) the Holders holding a majority of the
Registrable Securities. Any amendment, modification, supplement, consent or
waiver must be made in writing and shall be effective only to the extent
specifically set forth in writing. Any amendment or waiver effected in
accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each Holder and the
Company. Each Holder acknowledges that by operation of this paragraph the
Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities, acting in conjunction
with each of the affected Initial Holders and the Company, will have the right
and power to diminish or eliminate all rights pursuant to this Agreement.

          11. Successors, Assigns and Transferees.
              -----------------------------------

              (a) The registration rights of any Holder under this Agreement
with respect to any Registrable Securities may be transferred and assigned;
provided, however, that demand registration rights pursuant to Section 2 hereof
--------  -------
may be transferred only by an Initial Holder in connection with the transfer and
assignment of at least 500,000 shares of

                                     - 17 -

<PAGE>

such Initial Holder's Registrable Securities to one entity or one group of
controlled affiliates; and provided further, however, that no such transfer or
                           ----------------  -------
assignment of any registration rights under this Agreement shall be binding upon
or obligate the Company under this Agreement to any such transferee or assignee
unless and until (i) the Company shall have received notice of such transfer or
assignment as herein provided and a written agreement of the transferee or
assignee to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) such
transferee or assignee holds Registrable Securities. Any transfer or assignment
of the rights and obligations under this Agreement made other than as provided
in the first sentence of this Section 11 shall be null and void.

         (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

     12. Final Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the final agreement of the
         ---------------
parties concerning the matters referred to herein, and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings.

     13. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will
         ------------
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid
under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of
such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this
Agreement.

     14. Notices. All notices, demands or other communications or documents to
         -------
be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement
shall be made in writing and shall be deemed to have been received (a) when
delivered personally to the recipient; (b) when sent to the recipient by
telecopy (receipt electronically confirmed by sender's telecopy machine) if
during normal business hours of the recipient, otherwise on the next business
day; one business day after the date when sent to the recipient by reputable
express courier service (charges prepaid), or (c) seven business days after the
date when mailed to the recipient by certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested and postage prepaid. Such notices, demands and other
communications shall be sent to the parties at the addresses indicated below, or
to such other address as any party hereto may, from time to time, designate in
writing delivered pursuant to the terms of this Section 14:

          If to the Initial Holders, to the addresses set forth on Schedule I
                                                                   ----------
hereto.

          If to Holders other than the Initial Holders, to the addresses set
     forth on the stock record books of the Company.

     15. Governing Law; Service of Process; Consent to Jurisdiction. (a) THIS
         ----------------------------------------------------------
AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK AND FOR ALL PURPOSES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF SUCH STATE, IRRESPECTIVE OF ANY CONTRARY RESULT OTHERWISE
REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE CONFLICT OR CHOICE OF LAW RULES.

          (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party
hereto (i) agrees that any claim, action or proceeding by such party seeking any
relief whatsoever arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought only in the U.S. District
Court for the Southern District of New York and in any New York State court
located in the Borough of Manhattan and not in any other State or Federal court
in the United States of America or any court in any other country, (ii) agrees
to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts located in the State of
New York for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of, or in connection
with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (iii)
irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the
laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim
that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum.

     16. Counterparts and Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be
         ------------------------------------
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and
delivered shall be deemed an original, and such counterparts together shall
constitute one instrument. This agreement may be executed by the exchange of
signatures by facsimile transmission. Each party shall receive a duplicate
original of the counterpart copy or copies executed by it and the Company.

     17. Securities Held by the Company or its Affiliates. Whenever the consent
         ------------------------------------------------
or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of Registrable Securities is
required hereunder, Registrable Securities held by the Company or any of its
affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, but
excluding any Holders of Registrable Securities) shall not be counted in
determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such
required percentage.

     18. Specific Performance. Without limiting or waiving in any respect any
         --------------------
rights or remedies of the parties under this Agreement now or hereinafter
existing at law or in equity or by statute, each of the parties hereto shall be
entitled to seek specific performance of the obligations to be performed by the
other(s) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

     19. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not, on or after the date
         --------------------------
of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that
is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders pursuant to this
Agreement or

                                     - 19 -

<PAGE>

otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights granted to the
Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with
the rights granted to the holders of the Company's securities under any other
agreement in effect on the date hereof.

     20. Third Party Beneficiaries. Holders of Registrable Securities and the
         -------------------------
Indemnified Parties are intended third party beneficiaries of this Agreement,
and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by, such
Persons. Other than as set forth in the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto.
