GOLDMAN, SACHS & CO.

MERRILL LYNCH, PIERCE, FENNER & SMITH INCORPORATED

c/o Chase Securities Inc.

270 Park Avenue, 4th floor

New York, New York  10017

Ladies and Gentlemen:

                  Seagate Technology International, an exempted limited
liability company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the
"Issuer"), proposes to issue and sell to Chase Securities Inc. ("CSI"), Goldman,
Sachs & Co. ("Goldman") and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated
("Merrill", and together with Goldman and CSI, the "Initial Purchasers"), upon
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a purchase agreement dated
November 17, 2000 (the "Purchase Agreement"), $210,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of its 12.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007 (the "Securities") to be
jointly and severally guaranteed on an unsecured senior subordinated basis by
each entity listed on Schedule I hereto (such entities collectively, the "Note
Guarantors"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the
meanings given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

                  As an inducement to the Initial Purchasers to enter into the
Purchase Agreement and in satisfaction of a condition to the obligations of the
Initial Purchasers thereunder, the Issuer and the Note Guarantors agree with the
Initial Purchasers, for the benefit of the holders (including the Initial
Purchasers) of the Securities, the Exchange Securities (as defined herein) and
the Private Exchange Securities (as defined herein) (collectively, the
"Holders"), as follows:

                  1. Registered Exchange Offer. The Issuer and the Note
Guarantors shall (i) prepare and, not later than 150 days following the date of
original issuance of the

<PAGE>
                                                                               2

Securities (the "Issue Date"), file with the Commission a registration statement
(the "Exchange Offer Registration Statement") on an appropriate form under the
Securities Act with respect to a proposed offer to the Holders of the Securities
(the "Registered Exchange Offer") to issue and deliver to such Holders, in
exchange for the Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt
securities of the Issuer (the "Exchange Securities") that are identical in all
material respects to the Securities, except for the transfer restrictions
relating to the Securities, (ii) use their reasonable best efforts to cause the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities
Act no later than 270 days after the Issue Date and the Registered Exchange
Offer to be consummated no later than 300 days after the Issue Date and (iii)
keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 20
business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date on which
notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period
being called the "Exchange Offer Registration Period"). The Exchange Securities
will be issued under the Indenture or an indenture (the "Exchange Securities
Indenture") between the Issuer, the Note Guarantors and the Trustee or such
other bank or trust company that is reasonably satisfactory to the Initial
Purchasers, as trustee (the "Exchange Securities Trustee"), such indenture to be
identical in all material respects to the Indenture, except for the transfer
restrictions relating to the Securities (as described above).

                  Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, the Issuer shall promptly commence the Registered Exchange Offer, it
being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder
electing to exchange Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such
Holder (a) is not an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) of
the Issuer or an Exchanging Dealer (as defined herein) not complying with the
requirements of the next sentence, (b) is not an Initial Purchaser holding
Securities that have, or that are reasonably likely to have, the status of an
unsold allotment in an initial distribution, (c) acquires the Exchange
Securities in the ordinary course of such Holder's business and (d) has no
arrangements or understandings with any person to participate in the
distribution of the Exchange Securities) and to trade such Exchange Securities
from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the
Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of
the several states of the United States. The Issuer, the Note Guarantors, the
Initial Purchasers and each Exchanging Dealer acknowledge that, pursuant to
current interpretations by the Commission's staff of Section 5 of the Securities
Act, each Holder that is a broker-dealer electing to exchange Securities,
acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other
trading activities, for Exchange Securities (an "Exchanging Dealer"), is
required to deliver a prospectus containing substantially the information set
forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the "Exchange Offer
Procedures" section and the "Purpose of the Exchange Offer" section and in Annex
C hereto in the "Plan of Distribution" section of such prospectus in connection
with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging Dealer
pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer.

                                                                               3
                  If, prior to the consummation of the Registered Exchange
Offer, any Holder holds any Securities acquired by it that have, or that are
reasonably likely to be determined to have, the status of an unsold allotment in
an initial distribution, or any Holder is not entitled to participate in the
Registered Exchange Offer, the Issuer shall, upon the request of any such
Holder, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities in the
Registered Exchange Offer, issue and deliver to any such Holder, in exchange for
the Securities held by such Holder (the "Private Exchange"), a like aggregate
principal amount of debt securities of the Issuer (the "Private Exchange
Securities") that are identical in all material respects to the Exchange
Securities, except for the transfer restrictions relating to such Private
Exchange Securities. The Private Exchange Securities will be issued under the
same indenture as the Exchange Securities, and the Issuer shall use its
reasonable best efforts to cause the Private Exchange Securities to bear the
same CUSIP number as the Exchange Securities.

                  In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Issuer
shall:

                   (a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part
         of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an
         appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents;

                  (b) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than
         20 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the
         date on which notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the
         Holders;

                  (c) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered
         Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
         New York;

                  (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time
         prior to the close of business, New York City time, on the last
         business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open;
         and

                  (e) otherwise comply in all respects with all laws that are
         applicable to the Registered Exchange Offer.

                  As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered
Exchange Offer and any Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Issuer shall:

                  (a) accept for exchange all Securities tendered and not
         validly withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the
         Private Exchange;

<PAGE>
                                                                               4

                  (b) deliver to the Trustee for cancelation all Securities so
         accepted for exchange; and

                  (c) cause the Trustee or the Exchange Securities Trustee, as
         the case may be, promptly to authenticate and deliver to each Holder,
         Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be,
         equal in principal amount to the Securities of such Holder so accepted
         for exchange.

                  The Issuer and the Note Guarantors shall use their reasonable
best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to
amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein in order to permit such
prospectus to be used by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must
comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities;
provided that (i) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or
supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer, such period shall
be the lesser of 90 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers have sold
all Exchange Securities held by them and (ii) the Issuer shall make such
prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto available to any
broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any Exchange Securities
for a period of not less than 90 days after the consummation of the Registered
Exchange Offer.

                  The Indenture or the Exchange Securities Indenture, as the
case may be, shall provide that the Securities, the Exchange Securities and the
Private Exchange Securities shall vote and consent together on all matters as
one class and that none of the Securities, the Exchange Securities or the
Private Exchange Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a separate
class on any matter.

                  Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange
Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and in the Private
Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was
paid on the Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has
been paid on the Securities, from the Issue Date.

                  Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer
shall be required to represent to the Issuer that at the time of the
consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Securities
received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business,
(ii) such Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with any person to
participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities
within the meaning of the Securities Act and (iii) such Holder is not an
affiliate of the Issuer or, if it is such an affiliate, such Holder will comply
with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act
to the extent applicable.

<PAGE>
                                                                               5
                  Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Issuer and
the Note Guarantors will ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration
Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and
any supplement thereto complies in all material respects with the Securities Act
and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, (ii) any Exchange
Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes
effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange
Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does not,
as of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, include an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading.

                  2. Shelf Registration. If (i) because of any change in law or
applicable interpretations thereof by the Commission's staff the Issuer is not
permitted to effect the Registered Exchange Offer as contemplated by Section 1
hereof, or (ii) any Securities validly tendered pursuant to the Registered
Exchange Offer are not exchanged for Exchange Securities within 300 days after
the Issue Date, or (iii) any Initial Purchaser so requests with respect to
Securities or Private Exchange Securities not eligible to be exchanged for
Exchange Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer and held by it following
the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, or (iv) any applicable law or
interpretations do not permit any Holder to participate in the Registered
Exchange Offer, or (v) any Holder that participates in the Registered Exchange
Offer does not receive freely transferable Exchange Securities in exchange for
tendered Securities, or (vi) the Issuer so elects, then the following provisions
shall apply:

                  (a) The Issuer and the Note Guarantors shall use their
         reasonable best efforts to file as promptly as practicable with the
         Commission, and thereafter shall use their reasonable best efforts to
         cause to be declared effective, a shelf registration statement on an
         appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and
         sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined below) by the
         Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of
         distribution set forth in such registration statement (hereafter, a
         "Shelf Registration Statement" and, together with any Exchange Offer
         Registration Statement, a "Registration Statement").

                  (b) The Issuer and the Note Guarantors shall use their
         reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement
         continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus forming part
         thereof to be used by Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities for a
         period ending on the earlier of (i) two years from the Issue Date or
         such shorter period that will terminate when all the Transfer
         Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have
         been sold

<PAGE>
                                                                               6

         pursuant thereto and (ii) the date on which the Securities become
         eligible for resale without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144
         under the Securities Act (in any such case, such period being called
         the "Shelf Registration Period"). The Issuer and the Note Guarantors
         shall be deemed not to have used their reasonable best efforts to keep
         the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period
         if any of them voluntarily take any action that would result in Holders
         of Transfer Restricted Securities covered thereby not being able to
         offer and sell such Transfer Restricted Securities during that period,
         unless such action is (A) required by applicable law or (B) such action
         was permitted by Section 2(c).

                  (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(b) (but
         subject to the provisions of Section 3(b)), the Issuer and the Note
         Guarantors may issue a notice that the Shelf Registration Statement is
         unusable pending the announcement of a material corporate transaction
         and may issue any notice suspending use of the Shelf Registration
         Statement required under applicable securities laws to be issued.

                  (d) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Issuer
         and the Note Guarantors will ensure that (i) any Shelf Registration
         Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part
         thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material respects
         with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission
         thereunder, (ii) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment
         thereto (in either case, other than with respect to information
         included therein in reliance upon or in conformity with written
         information furnished to the Issuer by or on behalf of any Holder
         specifically for use therein (the "Holders' Information") does not, at
         the time that it became effective, contain an untrue statement of a
         material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
         therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and
         (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Shelf Registration Statement,
         and any supplement to such prospectus (in either case, other than with
         respect to Holders' Information), does not include an untrue statement
         of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order
         to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
         which they were made, not misleading.

                  3. Liquidated Damages. (a) The parties hereto agree that the
Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities will suffer damages if the Issuer and
the Note Guarantors fail to fulfill their obligations under Section 1 or Section
2, as applicable, and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of
such damages. Accordingly, if (i)

<PAGE>
                                                                               7

the applicable Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or
prior to 150 days after the Issue Date, (ii) the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, is not
declared effective within 270 days after the Issue Date (or in the case of a
Shelf Registration Statement required to be filed in response to a change in law
or the applicable interpretations of Commission's staff, if later, within 60
days after publication of the change in law or interpretation), (iii) the
Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated on or prior to 300 days after the
Issue Date, other than in the event that the Issuer and the Note Guarantors file
a Shelf Registration Statement, or (iv) the Shelf Registration Statement is
filed and declared effective within 270 days after the Issue Date (or in the
case of a Shelf Registration Statement required to be filed in response to a
change in law or the applicable interpretations of Commission's staff, if later,
within 60 days after publication of the change in law or interpretation but in
no event within 270 days after the Issue Date) but shall thereafter cease to be
effective (other than at any time that the Issuer and the Note Guarantors are
not obligated to maintain the effectiveness thereof, including as set forth in
Sections 2(c) and 3(b)) without being succeeded within 45 days by an additional
Registration Statement filed and declared effective (each such event referred to
in clauses (i) through (iv), a "Registration Default"), the Issuer and the Note
Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay liquidated damages to
each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, during the period of one or more
such Registration Defaults, in an amount equal to $ 0.192 per week per $1,000
principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder until (i)
the applicable Registration Statement is filed, (ii) the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement is declared effective and the Registered Exchange Offer
is consummated, (iii) the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective or
(iv) the Shelf Registration Statement again becomes effective, as the case may
be. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults, the accrual of liquidated
damages will cease. As used herein, the term "Transfer Restricted Securities"
means (i) each Security until the date on which such Security has been exchanged
for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer,
(ii) each Security or Private Exchange Security until the date on which it has
been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in
accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iii) each Security or
Private Exchange Security until the date on which it is distributed to the
public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant to
Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Section 3(a) or Section 3(b), the Issuer and the Note Guarantors shall
not be required to pay liquidated damages to a Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities if such Holder failed to comply with its obligations to make the
representations set forth in the second to last paragraph of Section 1 or failed
to provide the information required to be provided by it, if any, pursuant to
Section 4(n).

                  (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 3(a),
the Issuer and the Note Guarantors may issue a notice that the Shelf
Registration Statement is unusable pending the announcement of a material
corporate transaction and may issue any notice suspending use of the Shelf
Registration Statement required under applicable

<PAGE>

                                                                               8

securities laws to be issued and, in the event that the aggregate number of days
in any consecutive twelve-month period for which all such notices are issued and
effective exceeds 60 days in the aggregate, then the Issuer and the Note
Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay liquidated damages to
each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities in an amount equal to $0.192 per
week per $1,000 principal amount of Securities constituting Transfer Restricted
Securities held by such Holder. Upon the Issuer and the Note Guarantors
declaring that the Shelf Registration Statement is useable after the period of
time described in the preceding sentence, accrual of liquidated damages shall
cease; provided, however, that if after any such cessation of the accrual of
liquidated damages, the Shelf Registration Statement again ceases to be useable
beyond the period permitted above, liquidated damages will again accrue pursuant
to the foregoing provisions.

                  (c) The Issuer shall notify the Trustee and the paying agent
under the Indenture (the "Paying Agent") immediately upon the happening of each
and every Registration Default. The Issuer and the Note Guarantors shall pay the
liquidated damages due on the Transfer Restricted Securities by depositing with
the Paying Agent (which may not be the Issuer for these purposes), in trust, for
the benefit of the Holders thereof, prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on
the next interest payment date specified by the Indenture and the Securities,
sums sufficient to pay the liquidated damages then due. The liquidated damages
due shall be payable on each interest payment date specified by the Indenture
and the Securities to the record holder entitled to receive the interest payment
to be made on such date. Each obligation to pay liquidated damages shall be
deemed to accrue from and including the date of the applicable Registration
Default.

                  (d) The parties hereto agree that the liquidated damages
provided for in this Section 3 constitute a reasonable estimate of and are
intended to constitute the sole damages that will be suffered by Holders of
Transfer Restricted Securities by reason of the failure of (i) the Shelf
Registration Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be filed,
(ii) the Shelf Registration Statement to remain effective or (iii) the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective and the Registered
Exchange Offer to be consummated, in each case to the extent required by this
Agreement.

                  4. Registration Procedures. In connection with any
Registration Statement, the following provisions shall apply:

                  (a) The Issuer shall (i) furnish to each Initial Purchaser,
         prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the
         Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement,
         if any, to the prospectus included therein; (ii) include the
         information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto
         in the "Exchange Offer Procedures" section and the "Purpose of the
         Exchange Offer" section and in Annex C hereto in the "Plan of
         Distribution"

<PAGE>

         suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been
         made):

                            (i) when any Registration Statement and any

                  such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment
                  thereto has become effective;

                            (ii) of any request by the Commission after the

                  supplements to such Registration Statement or the prospectus
                  included therein or for additional information;

                           (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop

                  making of any changes in any Registration Statement or the
                  prospectus included therein in order that the statements
                  therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material
                  fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
                  statements therein not misleading.

                  (c) The Issuer and the Note Guarantors will make every

         thereto, including financial statements and schedules and, if any such
         Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those,
         if any, incorporated by reference).

         promptly deliver to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities
         included within the coverage of any Shelf Registration Statement,

         and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder may reasonably
         request; and the Issuer consents to the use of such prospectus or any
         amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of
         Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with the offer and sale of
         the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such prospectus or any
         amendment or supplement thereto.

                  (f) The Issuer will furnish to each Initial Purchaser and each
         Exchanging Dealer, and to any other Holder who so requests, without
         charge, at least one conformed copy of the Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial

         other persons that are required to deliver a prospectus following the

<PAGE>

                                                                              11

         thereto as such Initial Purchaser, Exchanging Dealer or other persons
         may reasonably request; and the Issuer and the Note Guarantors consent
         to the use of such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by
         any such Initial Purchaser, Exchanging Dealer or other persons, as
         applicable, as aforesaid.

                  (h) Prior to the effective date of any Registration Statement,
         the Issuer and the Note Guarantors will use their reasonable best
         efforts to register or qualify, or cooperate with the Holders of
         Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities included
         therein and their respective counsel in connection with the
         registration or qualification of, such Securities, Exchange Securities
         or Private Exchange Securities for offer and sale under the securities
         or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any such Holder reasonably
         requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things reasonably
         necessary to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the
         Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities covered
         by such Registration Statement; provided that the Issuer and the Note
         Guarantors will not be required to qualify generally to do business in
         any jurisdiction where they are not then so qualified or to take any
         action which would subject them to general service of process or to
         taxation in any such jurisdiction where they are not then so subject.

                  (i) The Issuer and the Note Guarantors will cooperate with the
         Holders of Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange
         Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
         certificates representing Securities, Exchange Securities or Private
         Exchange Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement
         free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and
         registered in such names as the Holders thereof may request in writing
         at least three business days prior to the closing date of any sales of
         Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities pursuant
         to such Registration Statement.

                  (j) If any event contemplated by Section 4(b)(ii) through (v)
         occurs during the period for which the Issuer and the Note Guarantors
         are required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the
         Issuer and the Note Guarantors will promptly prepare and file with the
         Commission a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or
         a supplement to the related prospectus or file any other required
         document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the
         Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities from a
         Holder, the prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a
         material fact or omit to state a

<PAGE>
                                                                              12

         material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the
         light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

                  (k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable
         Registration Statement, the Issuer will provide a CUSIP number for the
         Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange
         Securities, as the case may be, and provide the applicable trustee with
         printed certificates for the Securities, the Exchange Securities or the
         Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in a form eligible for
         deposit with The Depository Trust Issuer.

                  (l) The Issuer and the Note Guarantors will comply with all
         applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and the Issuer will
         make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable
         after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement an
         earning statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
         Securities Act.

                  (m) The Issuer and the Note Guarantors will cause the
         Indenture or the Exchange Securities Indenture, as the case may be, to
         be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act as required by applicable
         law in a timely manner.

                  (n) The Issuer may require each Holder of Transfer Restricted
         Securities to be registered pursuant to any Shelf Registration
         Statement to furnish to the Issuer such information concerning the
         Holder and the distribution of such Transfer Restricted Securities as
         the Issuer may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in
         such Shelf Registration Statement, and the Issuer may exclude from such
         registration the Transfer Restricted Securities of any Holder that
         fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after
         receiving such request.

                  (o) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder
         of Transfer Restricted Securities to be registered pursuant thereto
         agrees by acquisition of such Transfer Restricted Securities that, upon
         receipt of any notice from the Issuer pursuant to Sections 2(c), 3(b)
         or 4(b)(ii) through (v), such Holder will discontinue disposition of
         such Transfer Restricted Securities until such Holder's receipt of
         copies of the supplemental or amended prospectus

<PAGE>

         contemplated by Section 4(j) or until advised in writing (the "Advice")
         by the Issuer that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed.
         If the Issuer shall give any notice under Sections 2(c), 3(b) or
         4(b)(ii) through (v) during the period that the Issuer is required to
         maintain an effective Registration Statement (the "Effectiveness
         Period"), such Effectiveness Period shall be extended by the number of
         days during such period from and including the date of the giving of
         such notice to and including the date when each seller of Transfer
         Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement shall have
         received (x) the copies of the supplemental or amended prospectus
         contemplated by Section 4(j) (if an amended or supplemental prospectus
         is required) or (y) the Advice (if no amended or supplemental
         prospectus is required).

                  (p) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuer
         and the Note Guarantors shall enter into such customary agreements
         (including, if requested by the Holders of a majority in aggregate
         principle amount of the Exchange Securities, an underwriting agreement
         in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as Holders
         of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities, Exchange
         Securities and Private Exchange Securities being sold or the managing
         underwriters (if any) shall reasonably request in order to facilitate
         any disposition of Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange
         Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement.

                  (q) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuer
         shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by a representative
         of, and Special Counsel (as defined below) acting for, Holders of a
         majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities, Exchange
         Securities and Private Exchange Securities being sold and any
         underwriter participating in any disposition of Securities, Exchange
         Securities or Private Exchange Securities pursuant to such Shelf
         Registration Statement, all relevant financial and other records,
         pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Issuer and its
         subsidiaries and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to have its
         officers, directors, employees, accountants and counsel supply all
         relevant information reasonably requested by such representative,
         Special Counsel or any such underwriter (an "Inspector") in connection
         with such Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that such
         Inspector shall first agree in writing with the Issuer that any
         information that is reasonably and in good faith designated by the
         Issuer in writing as confidential at the time of delivery of such
         information shall be kept confidential by such Inspector, unless (i)
         disclosure of such information is required by court or administrative
         order or is necessary to respond to inquiries of regulatory
         authorities, (ii) disclosure of such information is required by law
         (including any

<PAGE>

                                                                              14

         disclosure requirements pursuant to Federal securities laws in
         connection with the filing of such Registration Statement or the use of
         any prospectus), (iii) such information becomes generally available to
         the public other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to
         safeguard such information by such Inspector or (iv) such information
         becomes available to such Inspector from a source other than the Issuer
         and its subsidiaries and such source is not known, after due inquiry,
         by the relevant Holder to be bound by a confidentiality agreement;
         provided further, that the foregoing investigation shall be coordinated
         on behalf of the Holders by one representative designated by and on
         behalf of such Holders and any such confidential information shall be
         available from such representative to such Holders so long as any
         Holder agrees to be bound by such confidentiality agreement.

                  (r) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuer
         shall, if requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
         amount of the Securities, Exchange Securities and Private Exchange
         Securities being sold, their Special Counsel or the managing
         underwriters (if any) in connection with such Shelf Registration
         Statement, use its reasonable best efforts to cause (i) its counsel to
         deliver an opinion relating to the Shelf Registration Statement and the
         Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as
         applicable, in customary form, (ii) its officers to execute and deliver
         all customary documents and certificates requested by Holders of a
         majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities, Exchange
         Securities and Private Exchange Securities being sold, their Special
         Counsel or the managing underwriters (if any) and (iii) its independent
         public accountants to provide a comfort letter or letters in customary
         form, subject to receipt of appropriate documentation as contemplated,
         and only if permitted, by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72.

                  5. Registration Expenses. The Issuer and the Note Guarantors
will jointly and severally bear all expenses incurred in connection with the
performance of its obligations under Sections 1, 2, 3 and 4, other than in
connection with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and the Issuer will
reimburse the Initial Purchasers and the Holders for the reasonable fees and
disbursements of one firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) chosen
by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities,
the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities to be sold pursuant
to each Registration Statement (the "Special Counsel") acting for the Initial
Purchasers or Holders in connection therewith which counsel shall be approved by
the Issuer (such approval to not be unreasonably withheld). Each Initial
Purchaser and Holder shall pay all expenses of its counsel other than as set
forth in the preceding sentence, underwriting discounts and commissions (prior
to the reduction thereof with

                                                                              15

respect to selling concessions, if any) and transfer taxes, if any, relating to
the sale or disposition of such Initial Purchaser's or Holder's Securities
pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement.

                  6. Indemnification. (a) In the event of a Shelf Registration
Statement or in connection with any prospectus delivery pursuant to an Exchange
Offer Registration Statement by an Initial Purchaser or Exchanging Dealer, as
applicable, the Issuer and the Note Guarantors shall jointly and severally
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder (including, without limitation, any such
Initial Purchaser or any such Exchanging Dealer), its affiliates, their
respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, and each
person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 6
and Section 7 as a Holder) from and against any loss, claim, damage or
liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including,
without limitation, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to
purchases and sales of Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange
Securities), to which that Holder may become subject, whether commenced or
threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or
state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i)
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
any such Registration Statement or any prospectus forming part thereof or in any
amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse each Holder promptly
upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Holder
in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or
appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however,
that the Issuer and the Note Guarantors shall not be liable in any such case to
the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of,
or is based upon, an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission
or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in
conformity with any Holders' Information; and provided, further, that with
respect to any such untrue statement in or omission from any related preliminary
prospectus, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(a) shall not
inure to the benefit of any Holder from whom the person asserting any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action received Securities, Exchange Securities or
Private Exchange Securities to the extent that such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action of or with respect to such Holder results from the fact that
both (A) a copy of the final prospectus was not sent or given to such person at
or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities, Exchange
Securities or Private Exchange Securities to such person and (B) the untrue
statement in or omission from the related preliminary prospectus was corrected
in the final prospectus unless, in either case, such failure to deliver the
final prospectus was a result of non-compliance by the Issuer with Section 4(d),
4(e), 4(f) or 4(g).

                                                                              16

                  (b) In the event of a Shelf Registration Statement, each
Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, its affiliates, their
respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, and each
person, if any, who controls the Issuer within the meaning of the Securities Act
or the Exchange Act (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 6(b)
and Section 7 as the Issuer), from and against any loss, claim, damage or
liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the
Issuer may become subject, whether commenced or threatened, under the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation,
at common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement
or any prospectus forming part thereof or in any amendment or supplement thereto
or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance
upon and in conformity with any Holders' Information furnished to the Issuer by
such Holder, and shall reimburse the Issuer for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by the Issuer in connection with investigating or defending
or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in
connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such
expenses are incurred; provided, however, that no such Holder shall be liable
for any indemnity claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds
received by such Holder from the sale of Securities, Exchange Securities or
Private Exchange Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement.

                  (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 6 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the
indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the
indemnifying party pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b), notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided,
however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it
from any liability which it may have under this Section 6 except to the extent
that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive
rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to
notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it
may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6. If any
such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall
notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled
to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other
similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the
indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the
defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to
the indemnified party under this Section 6 for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than the reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however,
that an indemnified party shall have

                                                                              17

the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses
and other charges of such counsel for the indemnified party will be at the
expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the
indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2)
the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of counsel to
the indemnified party) 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, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based upon
advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and
the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the
right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party)
or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party to assume the defense of such action
within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the
action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other
charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties.
It is understood that the indemnifying party or 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 of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any one time
for all such indemnified party or parties. Each indemnified party, as a
condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Sections 6(a) and 6(b), shall
use all reasonable efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the
defense of any such action or claim. No indemnifying party shall be liable for
any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written
consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action,
the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified
party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or
judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

                  7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in
Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party
under Section 6(a) or 6(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or
action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to
reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer from the offering and sale
of the Securities, on the one hand, and by a Holder from receiving Securities,
Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as applicable, registered
under the Securities Act, on the other, or (ii) if the allocation provided by
clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i)
above but also the relative fault of the Issuer and

<PAGE>

                                                                              18

the Note Guarantors, on the one hand, and such Holder, on the other, with
respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage
or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer and the
Note Guarantors, on the one hand, and a Holder, on the other, with respect to
such offering and such sale shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the
total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting
expenses) received by or on behalf of the Issuer as set forth in the table on
the cover of the Offering Memorandum, on the one hand, bear to the total
proceeds received by such Holder with respect to its sale of Securities,
Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, 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 the Issuer and the Note Guarantors
or information supplied by the Issuer and the Note Guarantors, on the one hand,
or to any Holders' Information supplied by such Holder, on the other, the intent
of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The parties
hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant
to this Section 7 were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other
method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified
party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect
thereof, referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include, for
purposes of this Section 7, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending or
preparing to defend any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of
this Section 7, an indemnifying party that is a Holder of Securities, Exchange
Securities or Private Exchange Securities shall not be required to contribute
any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the
Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities sold by such
indemnifying party to any purchaser exceeds the amount of any damages which such
indemnifying party has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was
not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

                  8. Rules 144 and 144A. The Issuer shall use its reasonable
best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Issuer is
not required to file such reports, it will, upon the written request of any
Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, make publicly available other
information so long as necessary to permit sales of such Holder's securities
pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Issuer and the Note Guarantors covenant that
they will take such further action as any Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time
to enable such Holder to sell Transfer Restricted Securities without
registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions
provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including,

                                                                              19

without limitation, the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). Upon the written
request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Issuer and the Note
Guarantors shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether they
have complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in
this Section 8 shall be deemed to require the Issuer to register any of its
securities pursuant to the Exchange Act.

                  9. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer
Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold
in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and
manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted
Securities included in such offering, subject to the consent of the Issuer
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and such Holders shall be
responsible for all underwriting commissions and discounts in connection
therewith.

                  No person may participate in any underwritten registration
hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's Transfer
Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably
required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

                  10. Miscellaneous. (a) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions
of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or
consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the
Issuer has obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private
Exchange Securities, taken as a single class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a
waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter
that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose Securities, Exchange
Securities or Private Exchange Securities are being sold pursuant to a
Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the
rights of other Holders may be given by Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private
Exchange Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration
Statement.

                  (b) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for

shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement.

revenues may have or

<PAGE>

                                                                              21

may hereafter become entitled to, or have attributed to it, any right of
immunity, on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise, from any legal action,
suit or proceeding, from the giving of any relief in any such legal action, suit
or proceeding, from setoff or counterclaim, from the competent jurisdiction of
any court, from service of process, from attachment upon or prior to judgment,
from attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from execution of judgment,
or from other legal process or proceeding for the giving of any relief or for
the enforcement of any judgment, in any competent jurisdiction in which
proceedings may at any time be commenced, with respect to its obligations,
liabilities or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, the Issuer and each
Note Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to
plead or claim, any such immunity and consent to such relief and enforcement.

                  (i) Consent to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agent for Service
of Process; Judgment Currency. (1) The Issuer and each of the Note Guarantors
agrees that any suit, action or proceeding against the Issuer or any Note
Guarantor arising out of or relating to this Agreement may be instituted in any
state or U.S. Federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of them irrevocably
submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any suit, action or
proceeding. The Issuer and each of the Note Guarantors irrevocably waives, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to any suit, action, or
proceeding that may be brought in connection with this Agreement, including such
actions, suits or proceedings relating to securities laws of the United States
of America or any state thereof, in such courts whether on the grounds of venue,
residence or domicile or on the ground that any such suit, action or proceeding
has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Issuer and each Note Guarantor
agrees that final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in
such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Issuer or any Note
Guarantor, as the case may be, and may be enforced in any court to the
jurisdiction of which the Issuer or any Note Guarantor, as the case may be, is
subject by a suit upon such judgment; provided that service of process is
affected upon the Issuer or any Note Guarantor, as the case may be, in the
manner provided by this Section.

                  (2) The Issuer and each Note Guarantor organized under the
         laws of any jurisdiction other than the United Sates, any state thereof
         or the District of Columbia irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System
         Inc., with offices on the date hereof at 1633 Broadway, New York, New
         York 10019, as its authorized agent (the "Authorized Agent"), upon whom
         process may be served in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of
         or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein
         which may be instituted in any state or U.S. Federal court in the
         Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, and expressly
         accepts the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in respect of
         any such suit, action or proceeding. The Issuer and each Note Guarantor
         hereby represents and warrants that the Authorized Agent has accepted
         such

<PAGE>

                                                                              22

         appointment and has agreed to act as said agent for service of process,
         and the Issuer and the Note Guarantors agree to take any and all
         action, including the filing of any and all documents that may be
         necessary to continue such respective appointment in full force and
         effect for a period of seven years from the date of this Agreement.
         Service of process upon the Authorized Agent shall be deemed, in every
         respect, effective service of process upon the Issuer and the Note
         Guarantors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action involving the
         Issuer or any Note Guarantor arising out of or relating to this
         Agreement may be instituted in any court of competent jurisdiction in
         any other jurisdiction.

                  (3) Any action, suit or proceeding brought by the Issuer or
         any Note Guarantor against any Initial Purchaser arising out of or
         based upon this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein
         shall be brought solely in a U.S. Federal or state court in the Borough
         of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, and neither the Issuer or
         any Note Guarantor shall initiate or seek to initiate, in the Cayman
         Islands or any other jurisdiction other than in such New York courts,
         any action, suit or proceeding against any Initial Purchaser arising
         out of or based upon this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
         herein. The foregoing shall apply, without limitation, to any action
         seeking to obtain any injunction or declaratory judgment against the
         enforcement of, or a declaratory judgment concerning, any claim by any
         Initial Purchaser in respect of this Agreement and any transaction
         contemplated herein, and any action challenging the enforceability of
         or seeking to invalidate in any respect the submission by the Issuer or
         any Note Guarantor hereunder to the jurisdiction of such New York
         courts or the designation, pursuant to this Section, of the laws of the
         State of New York as the law applicable to this Agreement.

                  (4) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it
         is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other
         than United States dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest
         extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange shall
         be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the
         Initial Purchasers, the Issuer, or any Note Guarantor could purchase
         United States dollars with the other currency in New York City on the
         business day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The
         obligation of any Initial Purchaser, the Issuer or any Note Guarantor
         in respect of the sum due shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a
         currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the
         first business day following receipt by such Initial Purchaser, the
         Issuer or such Note Guarantor of any sum adjudged to be so due in such
         other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) such Initial
         purchaser, the Issuer or such Note Guarantor may in accordance

<PAGE>

                                                                              23

         with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such
         other currency; if the United States dollars so purchased are less than
         the sum originally due to any Initial Purchaser, the Issuer or any Note
         Guarantor hereunder, such Initial Purchaser, the Issuer or such Note
         Guarantor agrees, as applicable, as a separate obligation and
         notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Initial Purchaser,
         the Issuer or such Note Guarantor against such loss. If the United
         States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to
         such Initial Purchaser, the Issuer or such Note Guarantor, such Initial
         Purchaser, the Issuer or such Note Guarantor agrees to pay to such
         Initial Purchaser, the Issuer or such Note Guarantor, as the case may
         be, an amount equal to the excess of the United States dollars so
         purchased over the sum originally due to such Initial Purchaser, the
         Issuer or such Note Guarantor.

                  (5) The provisions of this Section shall survive any
         termination or cancelation of this Agreement.

                  (j) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Issuer and each Note
Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that (i) it has not entered into,
shall not, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement that
is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or
otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof, (ii) it has not previously
entered into any agreement which remains in effect granting any registration
rights with respect to any of its debt securities to any person and (iii) (with
respect to the Issuer) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without
the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the then outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities, it shall not grant to
any person the right to request the Issuer to register any debt securities of
the Issuer under the Securities Act unless the rights so granted are not in
conflict or inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

                  (i) No Piggyback on Registrations. Neither the Issuer nor any
of its security holders (other than the Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities in such capacity) shall have the right to include any securities of
the Issuer in any Shelf Registration or Registered Exchange Offer other than
Transfer Restricted Securities.

                  (j) Severability. The remedies provided herein are cumulative
and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. If any term, provision,
covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the
terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in
full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated,
and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best

efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or
substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the
intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

                  Please confirm that the foregoing correctly sets forth the
agreement among the Issuer, the Note Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers.

                  Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its
own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it
will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange
Securities. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by
delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is
an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as
it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a
broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in
exchange for Securities where such Securities were acquired by such
broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities. The Issuer has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the
Expiration Date (as defined herein), it will make this Prospectus available to
any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See "Plan of
Distribution".

                  Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its
own account in exchange for Securities, where such Securities were acquired by
such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection
with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See "Plan of Distribution".

         PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

                  Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its
own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it
will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange
Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to
time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange
Securities received in exchange for Securities where such Securities were
acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities.
The Issuer has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date,
it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any
broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until 40
days after the commencement of the offering, all dealers effecting transactions
in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus.

                  The Issuer will not receive any proceeds from any sale of
Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by
broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer
may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the
over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of
options on the Exchange Securities or a combination of such methods of resale,
at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such
prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made
directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive
compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such
broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any
broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its
own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer
that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to
be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on
any such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions
received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under
the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that
it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be
deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities
Act.

                  For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the Issuer
will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or
supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents
in the Letter of Transmittal. The Issuer has agreed to pay all expenses incident
to the Registered Exchange Offer other than commissions or concessions of any
broker-dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any
broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act.
