                                   ARTICLE 2.

                                    THE NOTES

Section 2.01. Amount of Notes.

            The Trustee shall authenticate a series of Initial Notes for
original issue on the Issue Date in the aggregate principal amount of
U.S.$200,000,000 upon a written order of the Issuer substantially in the form
set forth in Exhibit H hereto. In addition, the Trustee or an authenticating
agent shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer in the form of an
Officer's Certificate of the Issuer, authenticate Additional Notes in accordance
with Section 2.19; provided that the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an
Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel of the Issuer in connection with
the authentication of such Additional Notes. Such written order shall specify
the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which such Notes are to
be authenticated and, in the case of an issuance of Additional Notes pursuant to
Section 2.19, such Officer's Certificate of the Issuer shall certify that such
issuance will not be prohibited by Section 4.06.

            Upon receipt of an Issuer Request and an Officers' Certificate
certifying that a registration statement relating to an exchange offer specified
in the Registration Rights Agreement is effective and that the conditions
precedent to a private exchange thereunder have been met, the Trustee shall
authenticate an additional series of Notes in an aggregate principal amount not
to exceed U.S.$200,000,000 for issuance in substitution for, and evidencing the
same continuing indebtedness as, the Initial Notes tendered for exchange
pursuant to such exchange offer registered under the Securities Act not bearing
the Private Placement Legend or pursuant to a Private Exchange. Exchange Notes
or Private Exchange Notes may have such distinctive series designations and such
changes in the form thereof as are specified in the Issuer Request referred to
in the preceding sentence.

Section 2.02. Form and Dating.

            The Notes and the Trustee's certificate of authentication with
respect thereto shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, which
is incorporated in and forms a part of this Indenture. Any Additional Notes and
the Trustee's certificate of authentication with respect thereto shall be
substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A. The Notes may have notations,
legends or endorsements required by law, rule or usage to which the Issuer is
subject. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Notes offered and
sold to Qualified Institutional Buyers in reliance on Rule 144A (the "Rule 144A
Notes") shall bear the Private Placement Legend and include the form of
assignment set forth in Exhibit B, Notes offered and sold in offshore
transactions in reliance on Regulation S ("Regulation S Notes") shall bear the
legend and include the form of assignment set forth in Exhibit C, and Notes
offered and sold to Institutional Accredited Investors in transactions exempt
from registration under
<PAGE>
                                      -35-

the Securities Act not made in reliance on Rule 144A or Regulation S ("Other
Notes") may be represented by the Restricted Global Note, or, if such an
investor may not hold an interest in the Restricted Global Note, a Physical Note
bearing the Private Placement Legend. Each Note shall be dated the date of its
authentication. Each Note shall have an executed Guarantee from each of the
Guarantors endorsed thereon substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto.

            The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute,
and are expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable,
the Issuer, any Guarantor and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of
this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and agree to be
bound thereby.

Section 2.03. Execution and Authentication.

            Two Officers shall sign, or one Officer shall sign and one Officer
(each of whom shall, in each case, have been duly authorized by all requisite
corporate actions) shall attest to, the Notes for the Issuer by manual or
facsimile signature.

            If an Officer whose signature is on a Note was an Officer at the
time of such execution but no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee
authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless, provided that such
signature may be verified by an incumbency certificate.

            No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein
executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Note
shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been
duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued
and sold by the Issuer, and the Issuer shall deliver such Note to the Trustee
for cancellation as provided in Section 2.12, for all purposes of this Indenture
such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

            The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably
acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Notes. Unless otherwise provided in
the appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate the Notes whenever the
Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the
Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the
same rights as an Agent to deal with the Issuer and Affiliates of the Issuer.
Each Paying Agent is designated as an authenticating agent for purposes of this
Indenture.
<PAGE>
                                      -36-

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

Section 2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent.

            The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency (which shall be
located in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York, State of New York)
where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the
"Registrar"). The Registrar shall keep a register (the "Register") of the Notes
and of their transfer and exchange. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed
registrar for purposes of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein
provided.

            The Issuer shall also maintain an office or agency in the Borough of
Manhattan, City of New York, State of New York where Notes may be presented for
payment (the "Paying Agent"). Neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate thereof may
act as Paying Agent. The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as the Paying
Agent.

            The Issuer may have additional co-registrars and additional paying
agents. The term "Paying Agent" includes any additional co-registrars and paying
agents, respectively.

            The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement, which
shall incorporate the provisions of the TIA, with any Agent that is not a party
to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this
Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the
name and address of any such Agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar
or a Paying Agent, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act
as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation in accordance with
Section 7.07.

Section 2.05. Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust.

            Each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the
Noteholders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of
principal of or premium or interest on the Notes (whether such money has been
paid to it by the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes), and the Issuer and
the Paying Agent shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the
Issuer (or any other obligor on the Notes) in making any such payment. Money
held in trust by the Paying Agent need not be segregated except as required by
law and in no event shall the Paying Agent or Trustee be liable for any interest
on any money received by it hereunder. The Issuer at any time may require the
Paying Agent in writing to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account
for any funds disbursed and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance
of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2), upon written
request to the Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to pay forthwith all
money so held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon
making such
<PAGE>
                                      -37-

payment, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money
delivered to the Trustee.

Section 2.06. Noteholder 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
the applicable Noteholders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer
shall furnish to the Trustee at least five Business Days before each Interest
Payment Date, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a
list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of
the names and addresses of the Noteholders.

Section 2.07. Transfer and Exchange.

            (a) Subject to Sections 2.16 and 2.17, when Notes are presented to
the Registrar with a written request from the Holder of such Notes to register a
transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other
authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the
exchange as requested if the requirements for such a transaction are met. Every
Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be
duly endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder
thereof or his attorneys duly authorized in writing. To permit registrations of
transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall issue and execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate new Notes evidencing such transfer or exchange at the
Registrar's request. No service charge shall be made to the Noteholder for any
registration of transfer or exchange. The Registrar may require from the
Noteholder payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer taxes or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to a transfer or exchange,
but this provision shall not apply to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.11,
3.06, 4.09, 4.20 or 8.05 (in which events the Issuer shall be responsible for
the payment of such taxes). The Registrar shall not be required to exchange or
register a transfer of any Note for a period of 15 days immediately preceding
the selection of Notes to be redeemed or any Note selected for redemption.

            (b) Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global
Note, agree that transfers of the beneficial interests in such Global Note may
be effected only through a book entry system maintained by the Holder of such
Global Note (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the
Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

            (c) 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 U.S. securities laws.
<PAGE>
                                      -38-

            (d) Except as expressly provided herein, neither the Trustee nor any
Registrar shall have any duty to monitor the Issuer's compliance with or have
any responsibility with respect to the Issuer's compliance with any U.S.
securities laws.

Section 2.08. Replacement Notes.

            If a mutilated Note is surrendered to a Registrar or the Trustee, or
if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or
wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a
replacement Note if the Holder of such Note furnishes to the Issuer and the
Trustee evidence reasonably acceptable to them of the ownership and the
destruction, loss or theft of such Note and the ownership thereof. If required
by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond shall be posted, sufficient in
the judgment of both to protect the Issuer, the Trustee or any Paying Agent from
any loss that any of them may suffer if such Note is replaced. The Issuer may
charge such Holder for the Issuer's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in
replacing such Note (including any charges of the Trustee) and the Trustee may
charge the Issuer for the Trustee's expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees and disbursements) in replacing such Note. Every replacement
Note shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Issuer.

Section 2.09. Outstanding Notes.

            The Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes that have been
executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee except for (a) those
canceled by a Trustee, (b) those delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, (c)
to the extent set forth in Sections 9.01 and 9.02, on or after the date on which
the conditions set forth in Section 9.01 or 9.02 have been satisfied, those
Notes theretofore executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee hereunder and (d) those described in this Section 2.09 as not
outstanding. Subject to Section 2.10, a Note does not cease to be outstanding
because the Issuer or one of its Affiliates holds the Note.

            If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08, it ceases to be
outstanding unless the Trustee receives written notice that the replaced Note is
held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Note is a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Issuer.

            If a Paying Agent holds, in its capacity as such, on any Maturity
Date or on any optional redemption date, money sufficient to pay all accrued
interest and principal with respect to the Notes payable on that date and is not
prohibited from paying such money to the Holders thereof pursuant to the terms
of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes cease to be
outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.
<PAGE>
                                      -39-

Section 2.10. Treasury Notes.

            In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount
of Notes have concurred in any declaration of acceleration or notice of default
or direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change
to this Indenture, Notes owned by the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer
shall be disregarded as though they were not outstanding, except that for the
purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be fully protected in relying
on any such declaration, notice, direction, waiver or consent or any amendment,
modification or other change to this Indenture, only Notes as to which at the
time of determination a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received an
Officers' Certificate stating that such Notes are so owned shall be so
disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be
disregarded if the pledgee establishes the pledgee's right so to act with
respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer, any other obligor
or guarantor on the Notes or any of its Affiliates.

Section 2.11. Temporary Notes.

            Until definitive Notes are prepared and ready for delivery, the
Issuer may prepare and execute and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary
Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes
but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary
Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.
Until such exchange, temporary Notes shall be entitled to the same rights,
benefits and privileges as definitive Notes.

Section 2.12. 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 shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer,
exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall (subject to the
record-retention requirements of the Exchange Act) dispose of canceled Notes in
accordance with its standard disposition policies in effect at the time. The
Issuer may not reissue or resell or issue new Notes to replace Notes that the
Issuer has redeemed or paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation.

Section 2.13. Defaulted Interest.

            If the Issuer defaults on a payment of interest on the Notes, then
the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest, plus (to the extent permitted by
law) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, in accordance with the
terms hereof, to the Persons who are Noteholders on a subsequent special record
date, which date shall be at least five Business Days prior to the payment date.
The Issuer shall fix such special record date and payment date and pro-
<PAGE>
                                      -40-

vide the Trustee at least 20 days written notice of the proposed amount of
defaulted interest to be paid and the special payment date and at the same time
the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee the aggregate amount proposed to be
paid in respect of such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before such special
record date, the Issuer shall mail to each Noteholder a notice that states the
special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest, and
interest payable on defaulted interest, if any, to be paid. The Issuer may make
payment of any defaulted interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements (if applicable) of any securities exchange on which the
Notes may be listed and, upon such notice as may be required by such exchange,
if, after written notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed
payment pursuant to this sentence, such manner of payment shall be deemed
practicable by the Trustee.

Section 2.14. CUSIP Numbers.

            The Issuer in connection with the issuance of the Notes may use one
or more "CUSIP" numbers, and if so, such CUSIP numbers shall be included in
notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided that any
such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or
accuracy of the CUSIP numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that
reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the
Notes. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any such CUSIP
number used by the Issuer in connection with the issuance of the Notes and of
any change in the CUSIP number.

Section 2.15. Deposit of Moneys.

            Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on each Interest Payment
Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date, Excess Proceeds Payment
Date and Maturity Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with the Paying Agent in
immediately available funds money sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due
on such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date,
Excess Proceeds Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, in a timely
manner which permits the Paying Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, to remit
payment to the Holders on such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Change of
Control Payment Date, Excess Proceeds Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case
may be. The principal and interest on Global Notes shall be payable to the
Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the sole registered owner and
the sole Holder of the Global Notes represented thereby. The principal and
interest on Notes in certificated form shall be payable at the office of the
Paying Agent.

Section 2.16. Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes.

            (a) Rule 144A Notes initially shall be represented by a note in
registered, global form without interest coupons (the "Restricted Global Note").
Regulation S Notes initially shall be represented by a note in registered,
global form without interest coupons (the
<PAGE>
                                      -41-

"Regulation S Global Note" and, together with the Restricted Global Note, the
"Global Notes"). The Global Notes shall bear a legend as set forth in Exhibit D.
The Global Notes initially shall (i) be registered in the name of DTC or the
nominee of DTC for credit to accounts of DTC Agent Members (as defined below)
(or, in the case of the Regulation S Global Note, DTC Agent Members holding for
Euroclear System ("Euroclear") and Clearstream, S.A. ("Clearstream")), (ii) be
delivered to the Trustee as custodian for DTC and (iii) bear legends as set
forth in Exhibit B with respect to the Restricted Global Note and Exhibit C with
respect to the Regulation S Global Note.

            Neither members of, nor direct or indirect participants in, DTC
("DTC Agent Members") shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to
any Global Note held on their behalf by DTC, or the Trustee as its custodian, or
under the Global Notes, and DTC may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and
any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the 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 DTC or impair, as between DTC and DTC Agent Members, the operation
of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any
Note.

            (b) Transfers of Global Notes shall be limited to transfer in whole,
but not in part, to DTC, its successors or its nominees. Interests of beneficial
owners in the Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged for Physical Notes in
accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC and the provisions of Section
2.17. In addition, a Global Note shall be exchangeable for Physical Notes if (i)
DTC (x) notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as
depository for such Global Note and the Issuer thereupon fails to appoint a
successor depository or (y) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under
the Exchange Act or otherwise ceases to be eligible to be a depositary, (ii) the
Issuer, in its sole discretion, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects
to cause the issuance of such Physical Notes, (iii) there shall have occurred
and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Notes, or (iv) in the
case of the Regulation S Note held for the accounts of Euroclear and
Clearstream, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, is closed for 14
continuous days or announces an intention to cease or permanently ceases
business. In all cases, Physical Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note
or beneficial interests therein shall be registered in the names, and issued in
any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of DTC (in accordance with
its customary procedures).

            (c) In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the
beneficial interest in any Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to
paragraph (b), the Registrar shall (if one or more Physical Notes are to be
issued) reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the
principal amount of the Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount
of the beneficial interest in the Global Note to be transferred, and the Issuer
shall exe-
<PAGE>
                                      -42-

cute, and the Trustee shall upon receipt of a written order from the Issuer
authenticate and make available for delivery, one or more Physical Notes of like
tenor and amount.

            (d) In connection with the transfer of Global Notes as an entirety
to beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph (b), the Global Notes shall be deemed
to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner
identified by DTC in writing in exchange for its beneficial interest in the
Global Notes, an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes of
authorized denominations.

            (e) Any Physical Note constituting a Restricted Note delivered in
exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to paragraph (b), (c) or (d)
shall, except as otherwise provided by paragraphs (a)(i)(x) and (c) of Section
2.17, bear the Private Placement Legend or, in the case of the Regulation S
Global Note, the legend set forth in Exhibit C, in each case, unless the Issuer
determines otherwise in compliance with applicable law.

            (f) On or prior to the 40th day after the later of the commencement
of the Offerings and the Issue Date (such period through and including such 40th
day, the "Restricted Period"), a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global
Note may be held only through Euroclear and Clearstream, as indirect
participants in DTC, unless transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the
form of an interest in the Restricted Global Note only upon receipt by the
Trustee of a written certification from the transferor to the effect that such
transfer is being made (i)(a) to a Person who the transferor reasonably believes
is a Qualified Institutional Buyer in a transaction meeting the requirements of
Rule 144A or (b) pursuant to another exemption from the registration
requirements under the Securities Act which is accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel regarding the availability of such exemption and (ii) in accordance with
all applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other
jurisdiction.

            (g) Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Note may be
transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in the
Regulation S Global Note, whether before or after the expiration of the
Restricted Period, only if the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a
written certificate to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance
with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 (if available) and that, if
such transfer occurs prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, the
interest transferred will be held immediately thereafter through Euroclear or
Clearstream.

            (h) Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is
transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another
Global Note shall, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note
and become an interest in such other Global Note and, accordingly, shall
thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions and other procedures
applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it
remains such an interest.
<PAGE>
                                      -43-

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

Section 2.17. Special Transfer Provisions.

            (a) Transfers to Non-QIB Institutional Accredited Investors and
Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the
registration of any proposed transfer of a Note constituting a Rule 144A Note to

            (i) the Registrar shall register the transfer of any Note
      constituting a Rule 144A Note, whether or not such Note bears the Private
      Placement Legend, if (x) the requested transfer is after April 3, 2005 or
      such other date as such Note shall be freely transferable under Rule 144
      as certified in an Officer's Certificate or (y) (1) in the case of a
      transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor which is not a QIB
      (excluding Non-U.S. Persons), the proposed transferee has delivered to the
      Registrar a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto or
      (2) in the case of a transfer to a Non-U.S. Person (including a QIB), the
      proposed transferor has delivered to the Registrar a certificate
      substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto; provided that in the case
      of a transfer of a Note bearing the Private Placement Legend for a Note
      not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar has received an
      Officers' Certificate authorizing such transfer; and

            (ii) if the proposed transferor is a DTC Agent Member holding a
      beneficial interest in a Global Note, upon receipt by the Registrar of (x)
      the certificate, if any, required by paragraph (i) above and (y)
      instructions given in accordance with DTC's and the Registrar's
      procedures,

whereupon (a) the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and
(if the transfer does not involve a transfer of outstanding Physical Notes) a
decrease in the principal amount of a Global Note in an amount equal to the
principal amount of the beneficial interest in a Global Note to be transferred,
and (b) the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an
increase in the principal amount of a Global Note in an amount equal to the
principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Global Note transferred or
the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available
for delivery one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and amount.

            (b) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with
respect to the registration of any proposed registration of transfer of a Note

                                      -44-

            (i) the Registrar shall register the transfer if such transfer is
      being made by a proposed transferor who has checked the box provided for
      on such Holder's Note stating, or has otherwise advised the Issuer and the
      Registrar in writing, that the sale has been made in compliance with the
      provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the certification
      provided for on such Holder's Note stating, or has otherwise advised the
      Issuer and the Registrar in writing, that it is purchasing the Note for
      its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole
      investment discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB within the
      meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in
      reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such
      information regarding the Issuer as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A
      or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware
      that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order
      to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; and

            (ii) if the proposed transferee is a DTC Agent Member and the Notes
      to be transferred consist of Physical Notes which after transfer are to be
      evidenced by an interest in the Restricted Global Note, upon receipt by
      the Registrar of written instructions given in accordance with the DTC's
      and the Registrar's procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its books
      and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global
      Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Notes to
      be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Notes so
      transferred.

            (c) Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration of transfer,
exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the
Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend.
Upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the

Private Placement Legend unless (i) it has received the Officers' Certificate
required by paragraph (a)(i)(x) of this Section 2.17, (ii) there is delivered to
the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer to the
effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are
required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities
Act or (iii) such Note has been sold pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act and the Registrar has received an Officers'
Certificate from the Issuer to such effect.

            (d) General. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private
Placement Legend, each Holder of such Note acknowledges the restrictions on
transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement
Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this
Indenture.

<PAGE>
                                      -45-

ten communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable prior
written notice to the Registrar.

Section 2.18. Computation of Interest.

            Except as otherwise specified within Section 2.18, interest on the
Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve 30 day months.
For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest which
is equivalent to the rate payable hereunder is the rate payable multiplied by
the actual number of days in the year and divided by 360.

Section 2.19. Issuance of Additional Notes.

            The Issuer shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes under this
Indenture which shall have substantially identical terms as the Initial Notes,
other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price, amount of interest
payable on the first payment date applicable thereto or upon a registration
default as provided under a registration rights agreement related thereto and
terms of optional redemption, if any (and, if such Additional Notes shall be
issued in the form of Exchange Notes, other than with respect to transfer
restrictions); provided that any issuance of Additional Notes shall be on or
before April 3, 2008; provided, further, that such issuance shall be made in
compliance with Section 4.06; provided, further, that no Additional Notes may be
authenticated and delivered in an aggregate principal amount of less than
U.S.$25.0 million per issuance; provided, however, that no Additional Notes may
be issued at a price that would cause such Additional Notes to have "original
issue discount" within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended.

            With respect to any Additional Notes, the Issuer shall set forth in
a resolution of its Board of Directors (or a duly appointed committee thereof)
and in an Officers' Certificate, a copy of each of which shall be delivered to
the Trustee, the following information:

            (1) the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding immediately
      prior to the issuance of such Additional Notes;

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

            (3) the issue price and the issue date of such Additional Notes and
      the amount of interest payable on the first payment date applicable
      thereto; and

            (4) whether such Additional Notes shall be transfer restricted
      securities and issued in the form of Initial Notes or shall be registered
      securities issued in the form of Exchange Notes, each as set forth in the
      Exhibits hereto.

Section 3.01. Notices to Trustee.

            If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to paragraph 6 or 7 of
the Notes, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date or such shorter period
as the Trustee may agree to (which agreement shall not unreasonably be
withheld), the Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption
Date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the redemption price, and
deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that such redemption
will comply with the conditions contained in paragraph 6 or 7 of the Notes, as
appropriate. Notice given to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 3.01 may not
be revoked after the time that notice is given to Noteholders pursuant to
Section 3.03.

Section 3.02. Selection by Trustee of Notes To Be Redeemed.

            In the event that fewer than all of the Notes of a series (all Notes
being deemed to be a single series) are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select
the Notes of such series to be redeemed, if such Notes are listed on a national
securities exchange, in accordance with the rules of such exchange or, if the
Notes are not so listed, either on a pro rata basis or by lot, or such other
method as it shall deem fair and equitable; provided that if a partial
redemption is made with the proceeds of an Equity Offering, selection of which
series of Notes to be redeemed shall be made by the Issuer while selection of
the Notes or portion thereof within a series for redemption shall be made by the
Trustee on a pro rata basis to the extent practical, unless such a method is
prohibited. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of the Notes selected
for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption,
the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. The Trustee may select for
redemption portions of the principal of the Notes that have denominations larger
than U.S.$1,000. Notes and portions thereof the Trustee selects shall be
redeemed in amounts of U.S.$1,000 or whole integral multiples thereof. For all
purposes of this Indenture unless the context otherwise requires, 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, and no more than 60 days, before a Redemption
Date, the Issuer shall mail, or cause to be mailed, a notice of redemption by
first-class mail to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at his or her last
address as the same appears on the registry books maintained by the Registrar
pursuant to Section 2.04 hereof.
<PAGE>
                                      -47-

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

            (1) the Redemption Date;

            (2) the redemption price and the amount of premium and accrued
      interest to be paid;

            (3) 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 and upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in
      principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued;

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

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

            (6) that unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption
      payment, interest on Notes (or portion thereof) called for redemption
      ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;

            (7) the provision of paragraph 6 or 7 of the Notes pursuant to which
      the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;

            (8) the aggregate principal amount of Notes that are being redeemed;

            (9) the CUSIP number, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed;
      and

            (10) 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 written request made at least five Business Days
prior to the date on which notice is to be given, the Trustee shall give the
notice of redemption in the Issuer's name and at the Issuer's sole expense.

Section 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

            Once the notice of redemption described in Section 3.03 is mailed,
Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at
the redemption price, including any premium, plus interest accrued to the
Redemption Date. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at
the redemption price, including any premium, plus interest accrued to the
Redemption Date, provided that if the Redemption Date is after a regular record
date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date, the accrued interest shall be
payable to the Holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant record
date; provided,
<PAGE>
                                      -48-

further, that if a Redemption Date is a Legal Holiday, payment shall be made on
the next succeeding Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the period
from such Redemption Date to such succeeding Business Day.

Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price.

            On or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on each Redemption
Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent in immediately available
funds money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on
all Notes to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions thereof
called for redemption on that date which have been delivered by the Issuer to
the Trustee for cancellation.

            On and after any Redemption Date, if money sufficient to pay the
redemption price of and accrued interest on Notes called for redemption shall
have been made available in accordance with the preceding paragraph, the Notes
called for redemption will cease to accrue interest and the only right of the
Holders of such Notes will be to receive payment of the redemption price of and,
subject to the first proviso in Section 3.04, accrued and unpaid interest on
such Notes to the Redemption Date. If any Note surrendered for redemption shall
not be so paid because money sufficient to pay the redemption price shall not
have been made available, interest will be paid, from the Redemption Date until
such redemption payment is made, on the unpaid principal of the Note and any
interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case, at the rate and in the
manner provided in the Notes.

Section 3.06. Notes Redeemed in Part.

            Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Trustee shall
authenticate for a Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed
portion of the Note surrendered.

                                   ARTICLE 4.

shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or a Paying Agent
holds on that date money designated for and sufficient to pay such installment.
<PAGE>
                                      -49-

            The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal (including
post-petition interest in a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law), and overdue
interest, to the extent lawful, at the rate specified in the Notes.

Section 4.02. Provision of Financial Statements and Other Information.

            (a) The Issuer shall furnish to the Holders, within the time periods
specified in the Commission's rules and regulations but whether or not required
by the Commission, (i) all quarterly and annual financial information that would
be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 20-F, 40-F
and 6-K, as applicable, if the Issuer were required to file such Forms, or (ii)
so long as (A) CanWest is required to file periodic reports with the Commission
under the Exchange Act and is in compliance with such requirements and (B) the
Issuer is required to make publicly available periodic reports at least

reports so required to be made publicly available, including in the case of
either clause (i) or clause (ii), a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and, with respect to the annual
information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer's
chartered accountants; provided that such information may be prepared in
accordance with GAAP so long as it is reconciled to generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States as permitted or required by the
Commission for foreign private issuers.

            (b) For as long as the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries
as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial
information required by paragraph (a) above will include a reasonably detailed
presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes
thereto, and in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations," of the financial condition and results of operations of
the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition
and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

            (c) In the event clause (i) of paragraph (a) applies, whether or not
required by the Commission, the Issuer shall file a copy of all of the
information and reports referred to in paragraph (a) with the Commission for
public availability within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules
and regulations (unless the Commission will not accept such a filing that does
not contain all of the information required by the Commission's rules) and make
such information available to prospective investors upon request. The Issuer
will also furnish to Holders and prospective investors upon request the
information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the
Securities Act.

            (d) At the Issuer's expense, the Issuer shall cause all reports and
other information referred to in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above to be mailed
to the Trustee and to
<PAGE>
                                      -50-

the Noteholders at their addresses appearing in the Register within 15 days
after they file them as required.

            (e) The Issuer shall, upon request, provide to any Noteholder or any
prospective transferee of any such Noteholder any information concerning the
Issuer (including financial statements) necessary in order to permit such
Noteholder to sell or transfer Notes in compliance with Rule 144A under the
Securities Act; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to
furnish such information in connection with any request made on or after the
date which is two years from the later of (i) the date such Note (or any
predecessor Note) was acquired from the Issuer or (ii) the date such Note (or
any predecessor Note) was last acquired from an "affiliate" of the Issuer within
the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

Section 4.03. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.

            The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that
it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead (as a defense or otherwise) or in
any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or
extension law or any usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the
Issuer from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any,
and/or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at
any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the
performance of this Indenture; and (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
the Issuer hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and
covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power
herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every
such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 4.04. Compliance Certificate.

            (a) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, on or before 105 days
after the end of the Issuer's fiscal year (such fiscal year ending August 31)
and on or before 60 days after the end of each of the first, second and third
fiscal quarters in each such fiscal year, an Officers' Certificate stating that
a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries during such fiscal
year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers 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 such Officer
signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuer
has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in
this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of
the terms, provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and is continuing, describing all such Defaults or
Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the
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 inter-
<PAGE>
                                      -51-

est, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a
description of the event and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to
take with respect thereto.

            (b) The annual financial statements delivered pursuant to Section
4.02 shall be accompanied by a written report addressed to the Trustee of the
Issuer's independent accountants (who shall be a firm of established national
reputation satisfactory to the Trustee) stating that in conducting their audit
of such financial statements nothing has come to their attention that would lead
them to believe that a Default or Event of Default has occurred under this
Indenture insofar as they relate to accounting matters or, if any such violation
has occurred, specifying the nature and period of existence thereof, it being
understood that such accountants shall not be liable directly or indirectly to
any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such violation.

            (c) (i) If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or (ii) if any Holder seeks to exercise any remedy hereunder with
respect to a claimed default under this Indenture or the Notes, the Issuer shall
deliver to the Trustee, at its address set forth in Section 12.02 hereof, by
registered or certified mail or by telegram, telex or facsimile transmission
followed by hard copy by registered or certified mail an Officers' Certificate
specifying such Default or Event of Default, notice or other action, the status
thereof and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take within five
Business Days of its becoming aware of such occurrence.

            (d) The Issuer will provide written notice to the Trustee of any
change in its fiscal year.

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 except as contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings.

Section 4.06. Limitation on Additional Indebtedness.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including
Acquired Indebtedness); provided that, if no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing at the time or as a consequence of the
incurrence of such Indebtedness, the Issuer or any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) if after
giving effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness and the receipt and
application of the proceeds thereof, the Issuer's Consolidated Leverage Ratio is
less than 6.25 to 1; provided, further, that in no event shall the aggregate
principal amount of all Indebtedness of the Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries
that are not also Guarantors incurred in reliance on this paragraph, when taken
together (without duplication) with the aggregate principal amount of all
Permitted Indebted-
<PAGE>
                                      -52-

ness of the Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries that are not also Guarantors, at
any one time outstanding exceed $50.0 million.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and the Restricted
Subsidiaries may incur Permitted Indebtedness; provided that such Person will
not incur any Permitted Indebtedness that ranks junior in right of payment to
the Notes that has a maturity or mandatory sinking fund payment prior to the
maturity of the Notes; provided, further, that in no event shall the aggregate
principal amount of all Permitted Indebtedness of the Issuer's Restricted
Subsidiaries that are not also Guarantors, when taken together (without
duplication) with the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness of the
Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries that are not also Guarantors incurred in
reliance on the immediately preceding paragraph, at any one time outstanding
exceed $50.0 million.

            The Issuer shall not, directly or indirectly, in any event incur any
Indebtedness that purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement
governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to any other Indebtedness of the
Issuer unless such Indebtedness is also by its terms (or on the terms of any
agreement governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to the Notes to the same
extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to such other Indebtedness of the
Issuer.

            No Guarantor will, directly or indirectly, in any event incur any
Indebtedness that purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement
governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to any other Indebtedness of such
Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also by its terms (or on the terms of any
agreement governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to the Guarantee of such
Guarantor to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to such other
Indebtedness of such Guarantor.

            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.06, the
accrual of interest, accretion of accreted value of discount Indebtedness and
payments of interest in the form of additional subordinated Indebtedness will
not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section
4.06, and the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer or a Restricted
Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall not be deemed to be
exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies.

            For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.06, in
the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of
the categories of Permitted Indebtedness or is entitled to be incurred pursuant
to the first paragraph of this Section 4.06, the Issuer shall, in its sole
discretion at the time such Indebtedness is incurred, classify, and may from
time to time reclassify, such Indebtedness (or part thereof) in any manner that
complies with this Section 4.06 and such Indebtedness (or part thereof) shall be
treated as having been incurred pursuant to only one of such clauses or pursuant
to the first paragraph hereof, and such Indebtedness may be divided and
classified in more than one of such classifications.

Section 4.07. Limitation on Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries.

            The Issuer shall not

            (1) sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise convey or dispose of any
      Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than any such transaction
      resulting in a Lien which constitutes a Permitted Lien); or

            (2) permit any Restricted Subsidiary to issue any Capital Stock,
      unless after giving effect thereto the Issuer's percentage interest
      (direct and indirect) in the Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary
      is at least equal to its percentage interest prior thereto and such
      issuance is otherwise permitted under this Indenture.

The foregoing restrictions shall not apply to an Asset Sale made in compliance
with Section 4.09 (provided that if such Asset Sale is for less than all of the
outstanding Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary held by the Issuer or any
of the Restricted Subsidiaries, such Asset Sale must also comply with Section
4.08) or the issuance of Disqualified Capital Stock in compliance with Section
4.16.

Section 4.08. Limitation on Restricted Payments.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any Restricted Payment, unless

            (a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing at the time of or immediately after giving effect to such
      Restricted Payment;

            (b) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such Restricted
      Payment, the Issuer could incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness (other
      than Permitted Indebtedness) under Section 4.06; and

            (c) immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment, the
      aggregate of all Restricted Payments declared or made after the Existing
      Senior Subordinated Notes Issue Date does not exceed the sum of (1) 100%
      of the Issuer's Cumulative EBITDA minus 1.4 times the Issuer's Cumulative
      Consolidated Interest Expense; plus (2) 100% of the aggregate Net Proceeds
      received by the Issuer from the issue or sale after the Existing Senior
      Subordinated Notes Issue Date of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified
      Capital Stock or Capital Stock of the Issuer issued to any Subsidiary of
      the Issuer) of the Issuer or any Indebtedness or other securities of the
      Issuer convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Capital Stock
      (other than Disqualified Capital Stock) of the Issuer which have been so
      converted, exercised or exchanged, as the case may be; plus (3) without
      duplication of any amounts included in clause (c)(2) above, 100% of the
      aggregate Net Proceeds received by the Issuer from any equity
<PAGE>
                                      -54-

      contribution from a holder of the Issuer's Capital Stock, excluding, in
      the case of clauses (c)(2) and (3), any Net Proceeds from an Equity
      Offering to the extent used to redeem the Notes or the Existing Senior
      Subordinated Notes; plus (4) in the case of the disposition or repayment
      of any Investment constituting a Restricted Payment made after the
      Existing Senior Subordinated Notes Issue Date, an amount (to the extent
      not included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income) equal to the
      lesser of: (x) the return of capital with respect to such Investment and
      (y) the amount of such Investment which was treated as a Restricted
      Payment, in either case, less the cost of the disposition of such
      Investment; plus (5) so long as the Designation Amount thereof was treated
      as a Restricted Payment made after the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes
      Issue Date, with respect to any Unrestricted Subsidiary that has been
      redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the Existing Senior
      Subordinated Notes Issue Date in accordance with the provisions of this
      Indenture, the Issuer's proportionate interest in an amount equal to the
      excess of (x) the total assets of such Subsidiary, valued on an aggregate
      basis at fair market value, over (y) the total liabilities of such
      Subsidiary, determined in accordance with GAAP (and provided that such
      amount shall not in any case exceed the Designation Amount with respect to
      such Restricted Subsidiary upon its designation). For purposes of
      determining under this clause (c) the amount expended for Restricted
      Payments, cash distributed shall be valued at the face amount thereof and
      property other than cash shall be valued at its fair market value.

            The provisions of this Section 4.08 shall not prohibit

            (1) the payment of any distribution within 60 days after the date of
      declaration thereof, if at such date of declaration such payment would
      comply with the provisions of this Indenture;

            (2) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement of
      any shares of Capital Stock of the Issuer or Indebtedness subordinated to
      the Notes by conversion into, or by or in exchange for, shares of Capital
      Stock of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Capital Stock), or out of the
      Net Proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a
      Subsidiary of the Issuer) of other shares of Capital Stock of the Issuer
      (other than Disqualified Capital Stock); provided, however, that any such
      Net Proceeds or the value of any Capital Stock issued in exchange for such
      shares or Indebtedness is excluded from clause (c)(2) of the preceding
      paragraph (and was not included therein at any time);

            (3) the repurchase, redemption, repayment, retirement, defeasance or
      other acquisition for value of the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes;

            (4) the repurchase, redemption, repayment, retirement, defeasance or

      extent that such transaction is funded with the net proceeds, after
      deduction of all related fees and expenses, from the sale, lease,
      conveyance, disposition or other transfer of Property of or Capital Stock
      issued by any of TV4 Network Limited, TV3 Network Services Limited,

            (5) the repurchase, redemption, repayment, retirement, defeasance or
      other acquisition for value of Indebtedness of the Issuer subordinated to
      the Notes in exchange for, by conversion into, or out of the Net Proceeds
      of a substantially concurrent sale or incurrence of, Indebtedness of the
      Issuer (other than any Indebtedness owed to a Subsidiary) that is
      Refinancing Indebtedness;

            (6) the retirement of any shares of Disqualified Capital Stock of
      the Issuer by conversion into, or by exchange for, shares of Disqualified
      Capital Stock of the Issuer, or out of the Net Proceeds of the
      substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Issuer)
      of other shares of Disqualified Capital Stock of the Issuer; provided,
      however, that any such Net Proceeds or the value of any Capital Stock
      issued in exchange for such shares is excluded from clause (c)(2) of the
      preceding paragraph (and was not included therein at any time);

            (7) so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
      and be continuing, at the time of or immediately after giving effect to
      such payment, the repurchase, redemption, repayment, retirement,
      defeasance or other acquisition for value by the Issuer or any of the
      Restricted Subsidiaries of, or loans, advances, dividends or distributions
      to Holding Company Notes Issuer or CanWest to the extent necessary to
      enable Holding Company Notes Issuer or CanWest, as the case may be, to

      shares held by officers, directors or employees or former officers,
      directors or employees (or their estates or beneficiaries under their
      estates) of CanWest, the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries upon the
      death, disability, retirement or termination of employment of such current
      or former officers, directors or employees pursuant to the terms of an
      employee benefit plan or any other agreement pursuant to which such shares
      of Capital Stock or options were issued; provided that the aggregate cash
      consideration paid or distributions or payments made pursuant to this
      clause (7) shall not exceed $5.0 million in any fiscal year (excluding for
      purposes of calculating such amount during any fiscal year an amount equal
      to the aggregate amount of repaid loans by the Issuer or the Restricted
      Subsidiaries incurred by directors, officers or employees to finance the
      purchase of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Capital Stock));

      fiscal year will not exceed $1.0 million;

            (10) distributions to CanWest, 3815668 Canada Inc. or to former
      holders of shares of CBL, other than CanWest or its Affiliates solely for
      the purpose of redeeming securities of CanWest issued in exchange therefor

provided that in any calculation of the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments
made subsequent to the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes Issue Date for
purposes of clause (c) of the immediately preceding paragraph, amounts expended
pursuant to clauses (1), (2) and (3) shall be included in such calculation.

Section 4.09. Limitation on Certain Asset Sales.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless

            (1) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be,
      receives consideration at the time of such sale or other disposition at
      least equal to the fair market value of the assets sold or otherwise
      disposed of;

            (2) not less than 75% of the consideration received by the Issuer or
      such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or
      Cash Equivalents except to the extent such Asset Sale constitutes a
      Permitted Asset Swap; provided, however, that the amount of any (a)
      Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that is actually
      assumed by the transferee in such Asset Sale and from which the Issuer and
      the Restricted Subsidiaries are fully released shall be deemed to be cash
      for purposes of determining the percentage of cash consideration received
      by the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary and (b) notes or
      other similar obligations
<PAGE>
                                      -57-

      received by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee
      that are converted, sold or exchanged within 60 days of the related Asset
      Sale by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary for cash shall be deemed to
      be cash, in an amount equal to the net cash proceeds realized upon such
      conversion, sale or exchange for purposes of determining the percentage of
      cash consideration received by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary; and

            (3) the Asset Sale Proceeds received by the Issuer or such
      Restricted Subsidiary are applied (a) to the extent the Issuer or such
      Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, elects, or is required to
      prepay, repay or purchase indebtedness outstanding under the Credit
      Facility within 365 days following the receipt of the Asset Sale Proceeds
      from any Asset Sale; provided that any such repayment shall result in a
      permanent reduction of the commitments thereunder in an amount equal to
      the principal amount so repaid; or (b) to the extent of the balance of
      Asset Sale Proceeds after application as described above, to the extent
      the Issuer elects, to an investment in Property (including Capital Stock
      or other securities purchased in connection with the acquisition of
      Capital Stock or Property of another Person) in compliance with Section
      4.12; provided that (i) such investment occurs or the Issuer or any such
      Restricted Subsidiary enters into contractual commitments to make such
      investment, subject only to customary conditions (other than the obtaining
      of financing), within 365 days following receipt of such Asset Sale
      Proceeds; and (ii) Asset Sale Proceeds so contractually committed are so
      applied within 545 days following the receipt of such Asset Sale Proceeds;
      and (c) if on such 365th day in the case of clauses (3)(a) and (3)(b)(i)
      or on such 545th day in the case of clause (3)(b)(ii) with respect to any
      Asset Sale, the Available Asset Sale Proceeds exceed $25.0 million, the
      Issuer shall apply an amount equal to the Available Asset Sale Proceeds to
      an offer, on a pro rata basis according to principal amount, to repurchase
      the Notes and any other Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the
      Holding Company Notes) ("Other Indebtedness") that is not, by its terms,
      expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the terms of
      which require an offer to purchase such other Indebtedness with proceeds
      from the Asset Sale, at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the
      principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any,
      to the purchase date (an "Excess Proceeds Offer"). Pending the final
      application of any such Available Asset Sale Proceeds, the Issuer or any
      such Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a
      revolving credit facility (including by way of cash collateralized letters
      of credit), if any, or otherwise invest such Available Asset Sale Proceeds
      in Cash Equivalents. If an Excess Proceeds Offer is not fully subscribed,
      the Issuer may retain the portion of the Available Asset Sale Proceeds not
      required to repurchase Notes and use such portion for general corporate
      purposes or otherwise, at its sole discretion, and the amount of Available
      Asset Sale Proceeds shall be reset to zero.
<PAGE>
                                      -58-

            If the Issuer is required to make an Excess Proceeds Offer, the
Issuer shall mail, within 30 days following the date specified in clause (3)(c)
above, a notice to the Holders of Notes stating:

            (a) that the Excess Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to this
      Section 4.09;

            (b) that the Holders of Notes have the right to require the Issuer
      to apply the Available Asset Sale Proceeds to make an offer to repurchase
      such Notes and the Other Indebtedness, to the extent required by the terms
      thereof, at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount
      thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the purchase
      date which shall be no earlier than 30 days and not later than 45 days
      from the date such notice is mailed (the "Excess Proceeds Payment Date");

            (c) that any Note (or portion thereof) not tendered will continue to
      accrue interest;

            (d) that any Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Excess
      Proceeds Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Excess Proceeds
      Payment Date;

            (e) the aggregate principal amount of Other Indebtedness that will
      also receive an Excess Proceeds Offer;

            (f) that Holders of Notes accepting the offer to have their Notes
      purchased pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer will be required to
      surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the
      notice prior to the close of business on the New York Business Day
      preceding the Excess Proceeds Payment Date;

            (g) that Holders of Notes will be entitled to withdraw their
      acceptance if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of
      business on the third New York Business Day preceding the Excess Proceeds
      Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting
      forth the name of the Holder of Notes, the principal amount of the Notes
      delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing
      its election to have such Notes purchased;

            (h) that Holders of Notes whose Notes are being purchased only in
      part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased
      portion of the Notes surrendered;

<PAGE>
                                      -59-

            (j) the name and address of the Paying Agent.

            In the event of the transfer of substantially all of the property
and assets of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries as an entirety to a
Person in a transaction permitted under Section 5.01, the successor Person shall
be deemed to have sold the properties and assets of the Issuer and the
Restricted Subsidiaries not so transferred for purposes of this Section 4.09,
and shall comply with the provisions of this Section 4.09 with respect to such
deemed sale as if it were an Asset Sale.

            For purposes of this Section 4.09, proceeds which are deposited in
escrow or are placed in trust shall not be considered to have been received by
the Issuer unless and until such time as such proceeds are released to the
Issuer from such escrow or trust.

            The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under
the Exchange Act and other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the
extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the
repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the
provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section
4.09, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and
regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this
Section 4.09 by virtue thereof.

Section 4.10. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, amend or suffer to exist
any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without
limitation, the sale, purchase, exchange or lease of assets, property or
services) with any Affiliate (each an "Affiliate Transaction") or extend, renew,
waive or otherwise modify in any material respect the terms of any Affiliate
Transaction entered into prior to or on the Issue Date, if the terms of such
Affiliate Transaction after giving effect to such extension, renewal,
replacement, waiver or other modification, taken as a whole, are more
disadvantageous to the Holders of Notes in any material respect than the
original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date unless (1) such Affiliate
Transaction is between or among the Issuer, one or more of its Wholly Owned
Subsidiaries, and/or one or more of the Restricted Subsidiaries that are also
Guarantors; or (2) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are fair and
reasonable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, and
the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are at least as favorable as the terms
which could reasonably be expected to be obtained by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in a comparable transaction made on
an arm's-length basis between unaffiliated parties.

            In any Affiliate Transaction (or any series of related Affiliate
Transactions which are similar or part of a common plan) involving an amount or
having a fair market value in excess of $10.0 million which is not permitted
under clause (1) above, the Issuer
<PAGE>
                                      -60-

must obtain a resolution of the majority of the disinterested members of the
Board of Directors of the Issuer certifying that such Affiliate Transaction
complies with clause (2) above. In any Affiliate Transaction (or any series of
related Affiliate Transactions which are similar or part of a common plan)
involving an amount or having a fair market value in excess of $40.0 million
which is not permitted under clause (1) above, the Issuer must obtain a
favorable written opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of
such transaction or transactions, as the case may be, from an Independent
Financial Advisor.

            The foregoing provisions shall not apply to

            (1) any Restricted Payment that is not prohibited by the provisions
      described in Section 4.08;

            (2) any transaction pursuant to an agreement, arrangement or
      understanding existing on the Issue Date and described in the Offering
      Memorandum and that was entered into or amended in compliance with or
      otherwise permitted to exist under the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes
      Indenture;

            (3) reasonable fees and compensation paid to, and any indemnity
      provided to or on behalf of, any officers, directors or employees of the
      Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such officers, directors or
      employees as determined in good faith by the Issuer's Board of Directors
      or senior management thereof;

            (4) any transaction between the Issuer or any of the Restricted
      Subsidiaries and their Affiliates involving ordinary course investment
      banking, commercial banking or related activities;

            (5) any transaction with any Affiliate solely in its capacity as a
      holder of Indebtedness or Capital Stock of the Issuer or any of its
      Subsidiaries where such Affiliate is treated no more favorably than
      holders of such Indebtedness or such Capital Stock generally;

            (6) transactions between or among the Issuer or any Restricted
      Subsidiary, on the one hand, and any other Person controlled by (as such
      term is defined in the definition of "Affiliate") the Issuer, on the other
      hand, so long as (a) at least 25% of the voting securities of such other
      Person are beneficially owned by Persons other than the Issuer or any
      Affiliate thereof, (b) there exists no other substantial business
      relationship between the Issuer and its Affiliates and the Persons who
      beneficially own at least 25% of the voting securities of such other
      Person referred to in clause (a) above, other than the transactions in
      question, and no such other business relationship is reasonably expected
      and (c) no portion of the remaining interest in such other Person is owned
      by a Person that controls (as such term is defined in the definition of
      "Affiliate") the Issuer, or between or among such Subsidiaries or Persons;
<PAGE>
                                      -61-

            (7) any transaction permitted by the provisions described under
      Section 5.01; and

            (8) any transaction, the prohibition of which, by operation of this
      covenant, would violate the "Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment
      Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries" covenant in the Existing
      Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture or the indenture governing the Holding
      Company Notes.

Section 4.11. Limitation on Liens.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, create, incur or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become
effective any Liens of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) upon any Property
of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any shares of Capital
Stock or Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary which owns Property, now
owned or hereafter acquired, without making, or causing the Restricted
Subsidiary to make, effective provision for securing the Notes or, with respect
to Liens on any Guarantor's Property, the Guarantee of such Guarantor; and

            (1) if such Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) secures Indebtedness
      which is subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantee of
      such Guarantor, as the case may be, any such Lien will be subordinate to
      the Lien granted to Holders of Notes or the Guarantee of such Guarantor,
      as the case may be, to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinate
      in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantee of such Guarantor, as
      the case may be; and

            (2) in all other cases, the Notes or the Guarantee of such
      Guarantor, as the case may be, is equally and ratably secured.

Section 4.12. Limitation on Conduct of Business.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, engage in any businesses which are not the same as or similar,
related, complementary or ancillary to the Communications Business.

Section 4.13. Limitation of Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries.

            Except in respect of guarantees in effect on the Issue Date and
permitted to exist under the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture and
described in the Offering Memorandum under the heading "Description of Credit
Facility and Other Indebtedness -- Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011," the
Issuer shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or
indirectly, by way of the pledge of any intercompany note or otherwise, to
assume, guarantee or in any other manner become liable with respect to any
Indebtedness of the Issuer, unless, in any such case
<PAGE>
                                      -62-

            (1) such Restricted Subsidiary executes and delivers a supplemental
      indenture to this Indenture, providing a Guarantee by such Restricted
      Subsidiary; and

            (2) if any such assumption, guarantee or other liability of such
      Restricted Subsidiary is provided in respect of Indebtedness that is
      expressly subordinated to the Notes, the guarantee or other instrument
      provided by such Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such subordinated
      Indebtedness shall be subordinated to the Guarantee substantially to the
      same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Guarantee by a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Notes shall provide by its terms that it shall be
automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, without any further
action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Notes, upon

            (1) the unconditional release of such Restricted Subsidiary from its
      liability in respect of the Indebtedness in connection with which such
      Guarantee was executed and delivered pursuant to the preceding paragraph;
      or

            (2) any sale or other disposition (by merger or otherwise) to any
      Person which is not a Restricted Subsidiary of a controlling interest in,
      or all or substantially all of the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary;
      provided that

                  (a) such sale or disposition of such controlling interest or
            assets is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture;
            and

                  (b) such assumption, guarantee or other liability of such
            Restricted Subsidiary has been released by the Holders of the other
            Indebtedness so guaranteed.

Section 4.14. Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting
              Restricted Subsidiaries.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to
exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the
ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to (a) pay dividends or make any other
distributions to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (1) on its Capital
Stock, or (2) with respect to any other interest or participation in, or
measured by, its profits; (b) repay any Indebtedness or any other obligation
owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; (c) make loans or advances or
capital contributions to the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries; or
(d) transfer any of its Properties or assets to the Issuer or any of the
Restricted Subsidiaries, except in respect of any of (a) through (d) above for
such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of (1)
encumbrances or restrictions existing on the Issue Date that were created in
compliance with or otherwise permitted to exist under
<PAGE>
                                      -63-

the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture, to the extent and in the
manner such encumbrances and restrictions are in effect on the Issue Date, (2)
this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees, (3) applicable law or any
applicable rule, regulation or order, (4) any encumbrance or restriction
existing under the Credit Facility, (5) any instrument governing Acquired
Indebtedness, which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person,
or the Properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the
Property or assets of the Person (including any Subsidiary of the Person), so
acquired, (6) customary non-assignment provisions in leases or other agreements
entered into in the ordinary course of business, (7) Refinancing Indebtedness;
provided that such restrictions are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than
those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being extended
refinanced, renewed, replaced, defeased or refunded, (8) customary restrictions
in security agreements or mortgages securing Indebtedness of the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such restrictions restrict the transfer of
the property subject to such security agreements and mortgages, (9) in the case
of clause (d) only, any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement for
Purchase Money Indebtedness that is permitted to be outstanding under Section
4.06, or (10) customary restrictions with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary
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 a Restricted
Subsidiary.

Section 4.15. Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction; provided that
the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a Sale and Lease-Back
Transaction if:

            (1) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, could
      have

                  (a) incurred Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness)
            in an amount equal to the Attributable Indebtedness relating to such
            Sale and Lease-Back Transaction under Section 4.06; and

                  (b) incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness pursuant to
            Section 4.11;

            (2) the gross cash proceeds of that Sale and Lease-Back Transaction
      are at least equal to the fair market value of the property sold; and

            (3) the transfer of assets in that Sale and Lease-Back Transaction
      is permitted by, and the Issuer applies the proceeds of such transaction
      in compliance with, Section 4.09.

              Subsidiaries.

            The Issuer shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to
issue any Disqualified Capital Stock (except Disqualified Capital Stock issued
to the Issuer or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Issuer) or permit any Person
(other than the Issuer or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Issuer) to hold any
such Disqualified Capital Stock unless the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary
would be entitled to incur or assume Indebtedness under Section 4.06 (other than
Permitted Indebtedness) in the aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate
liquidation value of the Disqualified Capital Stock to be issued.

Section 4.17. Limitation on Creation of Subsidiaries.

            The Issuer shall not create or acquire, and shall not permit any of
the Restricted Subsidiaries to create or acquire, any Subsidiary other than

            (1) a Restricted Subsidiary existing as of the Issue Date;

            (2) a Restricted Subsidiary that is acquired or created after the
      Issue Date; provided, however, that each such Restricted Subsidiary must
      execute a Guarantee, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
      Trustee (and with such documentation relating thereto as the Trustee may
      reasonably require, including, without limitation, a supplement or
      amendment to this Indenture and Opinions of Counsel as to the
      enforceability of such Guarantee), pursuant to which such Restricted
      Subsidiary will become a Guarantor, if and to the extent required by
      Section 4.13; or

            (3) an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Section 4.18. Payments for Consent.

            The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries
to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether
by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder of 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 agreed to be paid to all Holders of Notes which so consent, waive or agree to
amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such
consent, waiver or amendment.

Section 4.19. Legal Existence.

            Subject to Article 5 of this Indenture, the Issuer shall do or cause
to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect
its legal existence, and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company
or other existence of each Restricted Subsidiary, in accordance with the
respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended
<PAGE>
                                      -65-

from time to time) of each Restricted Subsidiary and 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,
limited liability company or other existence of any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries if the Board of Directors of the Issuer shall determine that the
preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of
the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss
thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

Section 4.20. Change of Control Offer.

            Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall make an
offer to purchase (the "Change of Control Offer") each Holder's outstanding
Notes at a purchase price (the "Change of Control Purchase Price") equal to 101%
of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if
any, to the Change of Control Payment Date in accordance with the procedures set
forth below.

            Within 30 days of the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer
shall (1) cause a notice of the Change of Control Offer to be sent at least once
to the Dow Jones News Service and by way of a press release issued on Canada
Newswire or similar business news services in the United States and Canada and
(2) send by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Trustee and to each
Holder, at the address appearing in the register maintained by the Registrar of
the Notes, a notice stating

            (a) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this
      Section 4.20 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment;

            (b) the Change of Control Purchase Price and the purchase date
      (which shall be a New York Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later
      than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the "Change of Control
      Payment Date"));

            (c) that any Note (or portion thereof) not tendered will continue to
      accrue interest;

            (d) that, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of
      Control Purchase Price, any Notes (or portion thereof) accepted for
      payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue
      interest after the Change of Control Payment Date;

            (e) that Holders accepting the offer to have their Notes purchased
      pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender their
      Notes to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to
      the close of business on the New York Business Day preceding the Change of
      Control Payment Date;
<PAGE>
                                      -66-

            (f) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their acceptance if
      the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the
      third New York Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date,
      a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name
      of the Holder, the principal amount of the Notes delivered for purchase,
      and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such
      Notes purchased;

            (g) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will
      be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion
      of the Notes surrendered;

            (h) any other procedures that a Holder must follow to accept a
      Change of Control Offer or effect withdrawal of such acceptance; and

            (i) the name and address of the Paying Agent.

            On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the
extent lawful, (1) accept for payment Notes or portions thereof properly
tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (2) deposit with the Paying
Agent money sufficient to pay the Change of Control Purchase Price of all Notes
or portions thereof so tendered and (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee Notes so accepted together with an Officers' Certificate stating the
aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the
Issuer. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder so accepted payment
in an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price for such Notes, and
the Issuer shall execute and issue, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate
and mail to each relevant Holder, a new Note equal in principal amount to any
unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered; provided that each such new Note
shall be issued in an original principal amount in denominations of U.S.$1,000
and integral multiples thereof.

            Further, (A) if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof has
issued any outstanding (1) Indebtedness that is, by its terms, subordinated in
right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantees or (2) Preferred Stock, and the
Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is required to make a Change of Control
Offer or to make a distribution with respect to such Indebtedness or Preferred
Stock in the event of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall not consummate any
such offer or distribution with respect to such Indebtedness or Preferred Stock
until such time as the Issuer shall have paid the Change of Control Purchase
Price in full to the Holders that have accepted the Issuer's Change of Control
Offer and shall otherwise have consummated the Change of Control Offer made to
Holders and (B) the Issuer will not issue Indebtedness (not including, for
greater certainty, any Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinated in right of
payment to the Notes or Preferred Stock with change of control provisions
requiring the payment of such Indebtedness or Preferred Stock prior to the
payment of the Notes in the event of a Change of Control under this Indenture.
<PAGE>
                                      -67-

            The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer
if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the time
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
Notes or portions thereof validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change
of Control Offer.

            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
repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that
the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section
4.20, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and
regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this
Section 6.01 by virtue thereof.

Section 4.21. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

            The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for
payment 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 address of the Trustee as set forth in Section 12.02.

            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. The
Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of such designation or
rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

            The Issuer hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee set forth in Section 12.02 as such office of the Issuer.

Section 4.22. Maintenance of Properties; Insurance; Books and Records;
              Compliance with Law.

            (a) The Issuer shall, and shall cause each of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, at all times cause all properties used or useful in the conduct
of their business to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and
working order (reasonable wear and tear excepted) and supplied with all
necessary equipment, and shall cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals,
replacements, betterments and improvements thereto; provided, however, that
nothing in this Section 4.22 shall prevent the Issuer or any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries
<PAGE>
                                      -68-

from discontinuing the maintenance of any such properties if such discontinuance
is, in the judgment of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or the Board of
Directors of such Restricted Subsidiary, desirable in the conduct of its
business and is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

            (b) The Issuer shall, and shall cause each of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, maintain insurance (which may include self-insurance) in such
amounts and covering such risks as are usually and customarily carried with
respect to similar facilities according to their respective locations.

            (c) The Issuer shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to,
keep proper books of record and account, in which full and correct entries shall
be made of all financial transactions and the assets and business of the Issuer
and each Subsidiary of the Issuer, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied
to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

            (d) The Issuer shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to
comply with all statutes, laws, ordinances or government rules and regulations
to which they are subject, non-compliance with which would materially adversely
affect the business, earnings, assets or financial condition of the Issuer and
its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

Section 4.23. Further Assurance to the Trustee.

            The Issuer shall, upon the reasonable request of the Trustee,
execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be
reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the provisions of
this Indenture.

Section 4.24. Suspension of Certain Covenants if Securities Rated Investment
              Grade.

            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, during any
period of time that (i) the ratings assigned to the Notes by both of the U.S.
Rating Agencies are Investment Grade Ratings and (ii) no Default has occurred
and is continuing hereunder, the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall
not be subject to the provisions of Sections 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.15,
4.16 and clause (3) of 5.01 (collectively, the "Suspended Covenants"). In the
event that the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the
Suspended Covenants with respect to the Notes for any period of time as a result
of the preceding sentence and, subsequently, one or both Rating Agencies
withdraw their ratings or downgrade the ratings assigned to such Notes below the
required Investment Grade Ratings, then the Issuer and each of the Restricted
Subsidiaries (except to the extent that any such Restricted Subsidiary is not
subject to such covenant pursuant to the terms thereof) shall thereafter again
be subject to the Suspended Covenants for the benefit of such Notes and
compliance with the Suspended Covenants with respect to Restricted Payments made
after the time of such withdrawal or downgrade will be calculated in accordance
with the terms of Section 4.08 as if such section had been in effect during the
entire period of time from the date of this Indenture.

Section 4.25. Payment of Additional Amounts.

            All payments made by the Issuer under or with respect to the Notes
or any Guarantor with respect to its Guarantee will be made free and clear of
and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future
Taxes, unless required under the laws of any Taxing Jurisdiction or by the
interpretation or administration thereof. If the Issuer or any Guarantor is
required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any
payment made under or with respect to the Notes or a Guarantee, the Issuer or
such Guarantor shall pay such additional amounts ("Additional Amounts") as may
be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including
Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction (including any deduction
or withholding in respect of Additional Amounts) will not be less than the
amount the Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or
deducted; provided that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to a
payment made to a Holder (to the extent any of the following exceptions apply,
an "Excluded Holder") (i) with which the Issuer or such Guarantor does not deal
at arm's length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at the time
of making such payment, (ii) that is subject to the Taxes at issue by reason of
its being connected with the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction otherwise than by the
mere acquisition, holding or disposition of such Notes or the receipt of
payments thereunder, (iii) that presents any Note for payment of principal more
than 60 days after the later of (x) the date on which payment first became due
and (y) if the full amount payable has not been received by the Trustee on or
prior to such due date, the date on which, the full amount payable having been
so received, notice to that effect shall have been given to the Holders by the
Trustee, except to the extent that such Holder would have been entitled to such
Additional Amounts on presenting such Note for payment on the last day of the
applicable 60-day period, (iv) that failed duly and timely to comply with a
timely request of the Issuer to provide information, documents or other evidence
concerning such Holder's nationality, residence, entitlement to treaty benefits,
identity or connection with the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, if and to the
extent that due and timely compliance with such request would have reduced or
eliminated any Taxes as to which Additional Amounts would have otherwise been
payable to such Holder but for this clause (iv), (v) on account of any estate,
inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or any Tax similar to any of the foregoing
Taxes, other than Documentary Taxes (as defined below), (vi) that is a
fiduciary, a partnership or not the beneficial owner of any payment on a Note,
if and to the extent that, as a result of an applicable tax treaty, no
Additional Amounts would have been payable had the beneficiary, partner or
beneficial owner owned the Notes directly (but only if there is no material cost
or expense associated with transferring such Notes to such beneficiary, partner
or beneficial owner and no restriction on such transfer that is outside the
control of such beneficiary, partner or beneficial owner or (vii) any
combination of the foregoing numbered clauses of this proviso. The Issuer and
the Guarantors will also (i) make such withholding or deduction and (ii) remit
the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance
with applicable law. The Issuer and the Guarantors will furnish to the Trustee,
within 30 days after the date of the payment of any Taxes due pursuant to
applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidenc-
<PAGE>
                                      -70-

ing such payment by the Issuer or any such Guarantor in such form as is provided
in the normal course by the Taxing Authority imposing such Taxes and as is
reasonably available to the Issuer or any such Guarantor, as the case may be.
The Trustee shall make such evidence available upon the written request of any
Holder of Notes that are outstanding on the date of any such withholding or
deduction.

            The Issuer and the Guarantors shall indemnify and hold harmless each
Holder (other than an Excluded Holder) and the Trustee and, upon written request
of any Holder (other than an Excluded Holder) or the Trustee, reimburse such
Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, for the amount of (i) any such Taxes
levied or imposed on and paid by such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be,
as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes held by such
Holder, (including payments under this clause (i)); and (ii) any Taxes levied or
imposed with respect to any reimbursement under the foregoing clause (i), so
that the net amount received by such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be,
after such reimbursement will not be less than the net amount such Holder or the
Trustee, as the case may be, would have received if Taxes on such reimbursement
had not been imposed.

            At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or
with respect to the Notes is due and payable, if the Issuer or any Guarantor
shall be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the
Issuer or such Guarantor shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and specifying the
amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable
the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.
Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, principal,
premium, if any, interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to
any Note, such mention shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional
Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or
would be payable in respect thereof.

            The Issuer or a Guarantor shall pay any present or future stamp,
court, documentary or other similar Taxes, charges or levies that arise in any
Taxing Jurisdiction from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
enforcement of rights under, this Indenture or any related documents, other than
any such Taxes, charges or levies (i) that are imposed by reason of the holder
being connected with such Taxing Jurisdiction otherwise than by the mere
acquisition, holding or disposition of the Notes or the receipt of payments
thereunder, or (ii) that are imposed with respect to a transfer of Notes by a
holder ("Documentary Taxes").

            The obligation to pay Additional Amounts and Documentary Taxes under
the terms and conditions described above will survive any termination,
defeasance or discharge of this Indenture.

Section 4.26. Limitation on Certain Amendments to the Credit Facility.

            The Issuer shall not amend the definition of Change of Control under
the Credit Facility if such amendment would result in Canadian withholding tax
being required to be withheld on payments made in respect of the Notes.

                                   ARTICLE 5.

                              SUCCESSOR CORPORATION

Section 5.01. Limitation on Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets.

            The Issuer shall not and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to (a) consolidate with, amalgamate with, or merge with or into
another Person (whether or not the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary will be
the continuing Person), or (b) sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and of
any Restricted Subsidiary (as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in one
transaction or a series of related transactions) to any Person unless:

            (1) either the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may
      be, is the continuing Person, or the Person (if other than the Issuer or
      such Restricted Subsidiary) formed by such consolidation or amalgamation
      or into which the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may
      be, is merged or to which the assets of the Issuer or such Restricted
      Subsidiary, as the case may be, are sold, assigned, transferred, leased,
      conveyed or otherwise disposed of is a corporation organized and existing
      under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District
      of Columbia or the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof or,
      in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary, the governing jurisdiction of
      such Restricted Subsidiary and expressly assumes, by a supplemental
      indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably
      satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the obligations of the Issuer or such
      Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, under this Indenture, the Notes
      and, if applicable, the Guarantees and the obligations thereunder remain
      in full force and effect;

            (2) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such
      transaction, no Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be
      continuing; and

            (3) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro
      forma basis the Issuer or such Person will be able to incur at least $1.00
      of additional Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness) under
      Section 4.06, provided that a Person that is a Guarantor on the Issue Date
      may merge into the Issuer or another Person that is a
<PAGE>
                                      -72-

      Guarantor on the Issue Date without complying with this clause (3);
      provided, further, that a Person other than the Issuer may merge into
      another Person that is not the Issuer without complying with this clause
      (3) if the Issuer's Consolidated Leverage Ratio immediately after giving
      effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis will be lower than its
      Consolidated Leverage Ratio immediately before giving effect to such
      transaction.

            In connection with any consolidation, amalgamation, merger or
transfer of assets contemplated by this provision, the Issuer shall deliver, or
cause to be delivered, to the Trustee, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel,
each stating that such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer of assets
and the supplemental indenture in respect thereto comply with this provision
(but for the Trustee being reasonably satisfied with the documentation to be
entered into or delivered to the Trustee, as the case may be, as stated above)
and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such
transaction or transactions have been complied with.

            For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment,
sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or
substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Issuer the Capital Stock of which constitutes all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer, shall be deemed to
be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the
Issuer.

Section 5.02. Successor Person Substituted.

            Upon any consolidation, amalgamation or merger, or any transfer of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer in accordance with Section
5.01 above, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation or
amalgamation or into which the Issuer is amalgamated or merged or to which such
transfer is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of, such Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect
as if such successor corporation had been named as such Issuer herein, and
thereafter the predecessor corporation shall be relieved of all obligations and
covenants under this Indenture and the Notes.

      Indenture for 30 days after written notice from the Trustee as directed in
      writing by the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount
      of the Notes then outstanding (except in the case of a default with
      respect to Section 4.20 or Section 5.01 which shall constitute an Event of
      Default with such notice requirement but without such passage of time
      requirement);

            (4) failure to pay when due principal, interest or premium in an
      aggregate amount of $20.0 million or more with respect to any Indebtedness
      of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof, or the acceleration of
      any such Indebtedness aggregating $20.0 million or more which default
      shall not be cured, waived or postponed pursuant to an agreement with the
      Holders of such Indebtedness within 60 days after written notice as
      provided in this Indenture, or such acceleration shall not be rescinded or
      annulled within 30 days after written notice as provided in this
      Indenture;

            (5) any final judgment or judgments which can no longer be appealed
      for the payment of money in excess of $20.0 million, net of any amounts
      covered by insurance, shall be rendered against the Issuer or any
      Restricted Subsidiary thereof, and shall not be waived, satisfied or
      discharged for any period of 60 consecutive days during which a stay of
      enforcement shall not be in effect;

            (6) any of the Guarantees ceases to be in full force and effect or
      any of the Guarantees is declared to be null and void and unenforceable or
      any of the Guarantees is found to be invalid or any of the Guarantors
      denies its liability under its Guarantee (other than, in any such case, by
      reason of release of a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this
      Indenture);

                                      -74-

            (7) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer pursuant
      to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

                  (A) commences a voluntary insolvency proceeding,

                  (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in
            an involuntary insolvency proceeding or consents to its dissolution
            or winding up,

                  (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for
            all or substantially all of its property,

                  (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its
            creditors, or

            takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to
            insolvency; provided, however, that the liquidation of any
            Restricted Subsidiary into another Restricted Subsidiary, other than
            as part of a reorganization pursuant to any Bankruptcy Law, shall
            not constitute an Event of Default under this Section 6.01(7);

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

                  (A) is for relief against the Issuer or any Significant
            Subsidiary in an involuntary insolvency proceeding,

                  (B) appoints a Custodian of the Issuer or any Significant
            Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the

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

            (9) either the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes or the debentures
      issued pursuant to the CMI Notes Indenture cease to be, by their terms,
      expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes in the manner
      specified on the Issue Date.

            The term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee,
liquidator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

            The Trustee may withhold notice to the Holders of the Notes of any
Default (except in payment of principal or premium, if any, or interest on the
Notes) if the Trustee considers it to be in the best interest of the Holders of
the Notes to do so.

Section 6.02. Acceleration.

            If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of the type
described in Section 6.01(7) and (8)) shall have occurred and be continuing,
then the Trustee may or the Holders as directed in writing by not less than 25%
in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may declare to be
immediately due and payable the entire principal amount of all the Notes then
outstanding plus accrued interest to the date of acceleration and the same shall
become immediately due and payable; provided, however, that after any such
acceleration but before a judgment or decree based upon such acceleration is
obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of outstanding Notes may, in writing, under certain circumstances, rescind and
annul such acceleration if (1) all Events of Default, other than nonpayment of
principal, premium, if any, or interest that has become due solely because of
the acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in this Indenture, (2)
to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue
installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise
than by reason of such declaration of acceleration, has been paid, (3) if the
Issuer has paid the Trustee its compensation due and payable and reimbursed the
Trustee for its expenses (including legal fees and expenses), disbursements and
advances incurred prior to the date of such rescission and annulment and (4) in
the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default of the type described in
clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 of the above Events of Default, the Trustee
shall have received an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that such
Event of Default has been cured or waived. No such rescission shall affect any
subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. In case an Event of
Default of the type described in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 shall occur,
the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to all of the Notes
shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the
part of the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes.

Section 6.03. Other Remedies.

            If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may
pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the
payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to
enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture and may
take any necessary action requested of it as Trustee to settle, compromise,
adjust or otherwise conclude any proceedings to which it is a party.

            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 Noteholder in exercising any right or remedy
accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or
constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is
exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.

                                      -76-

Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults and Events of Default.

            Subject to Sections 6.02, 6.07 and 8.02 hereof, the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding have the
right to waive any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any
provision of this Indenture or the Notes. Upon any such written 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 Event of Default or
impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 6.05. Control by Majority.

            The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then outstanding may, in writing, direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising
any trust or power conferred on the Trustee by this Indenture, provided they
have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it. The
Trustee, however, 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 another Noteholder not taking part in such direction, and the Trustee
shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee
reasonably determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or
if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer, determine that the
proceedings so directed may involve it in personal liability; provided that the
Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not
inconsistent with such direction.

Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits.

            Subject to Section 6.07 below, a Noteholder may not institute any
proceeding or pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes
unless:

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

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

            (3) such Holder or Holders offer and if requested provide to the
      Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss,
      liability or expense;

            (4) the Trustee does not comply with the written request within 60
      days after receipt of the request and the offer, and, if requested
      provision, of indemnity; and
<PAGE>
                                      -77-

            (5) no written direction inconsistent with such written request has
      been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a
      majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

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

Section 6.07. Rights of Holders To Receive Payment.

            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of
any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest
of the Note (including Additional Interest) on or after the respective due dates
expressed in the Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment
on or after such respective dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not
be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder.

Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee.

            If an Event of Default in payment of principal, premium or interest
specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
may recover judgment in its own name and as Trustee of an express trust against
the Issuer (or any other obligor on the Notes) for the whole amount of unpaid
principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on
overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate set forth
in the Notes, and such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
and expenses of collection, including the compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

            The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Noteholders 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 and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any
such claims and to distribute the same after deduction of its charges and
expenses to the extent that any such charges and expenses are not paid out of
the estate in any such proceedings and any custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Noteholder 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 Noteholders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to
them for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07
hereof.
<PAGE>
                                      -78-

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

Section 6.10. Priorities.

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

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

            SECOND: to the Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes
      for principal, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional
      Interest, if any) as to each, ratably, without preference or priority of
      any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes; and

            THIRD: to the Issuer or, to the extent the Trustee collects any
      amount from any Guarantor, to such Guarantor.

            The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment
      to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 6.10.

Section 6.11. Undertaking for Costs.

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

Section 6.12. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

            If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to
the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every case, subject to any
determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall
be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and
<PAGE>
                                      -79-

thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue
as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

                                   ARTICLE 7.

                                     TRUSTEE

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 them by this
Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent
man would exercise or use under the same circumstances in the conduct of his own
affairs.

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

            (1) The Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically
      set forth in this Indenture and no others.

            (2) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
      conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
      of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished
      to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture but,
      in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision
      hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the
      Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same 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 liability for its own
grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, or its own
willful misconduct, except that:

            (1) This paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of
      this Section 7.01.

            (2) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made
      in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is conclusively
      determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was
      grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.
<PAGE>
                                      -80-

            (3) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it
      takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
      received by it pursuant to Sections 6.02, 6.05 or 6.06 hereof.

            (4) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to
      expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial or other
      liability in the performance of any of its powers or duties if it shall
      have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or
      adequate indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or
      liability is not reasonably assured to it.

            (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, paragraphs (a),
(b), (c) and (e) of this Section 7.01 shall govern every provision of this
Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee.

            (e) The Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right
or power unless it receives indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it in its sole
discretion against any loss, liability, expense or fee.

            (f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money
received by it except as the Trustee may expressly agree in writing with the
Issuer. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by the law.

Section 7.02. Rights of Trustee.

            Subject to Section 7.01 hereof:

            (1) The Trustee may rely conclusively on any document reasonably
      believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the
      proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated
      in the document and may fully rely as to the correctness thereof.

            (2) Any request or direction of the Issuer mentioned herein shall be
      sufficiently evidenced by an Issuer Request and any resolution of the
      Board of Directors shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution.

            (3) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require
      an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, or both, which shall
      conform to the provisions of Section 12.05 hereof. The Trustee shall be
      fully protected and shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits
      to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.
<PAGE>
                                      -81-

            (4) 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.

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

            (6) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the
      advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law in respect to this
      Indenture or the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and
      protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or
      suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice
      or opinion of such counsel.

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

            (8) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
      the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
      instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
      bond, debenture, note, coupon or other paper or document, but the Trustee,
      in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into
      such facts or matters as they may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall
      determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be
      entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer,
      personally or by agent or attorney.

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 make loans to, accept deposits from, perform
services for or otherwise deal with the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any
Affiliates thereof, with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.
Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee, however, shall be
subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

Section 7.04. Trustee's Disclaimer.

            The Trustee shall not be responsible for and make no representation
as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes or any Guarantee,
it shall not be accountable for the Issuer's or any Guarantor's use of the
proceeds from the sale of Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or any Guarantor
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and it shall
<PAGE>
                                      -82-

not be responsible for any recital in the Notes, any Guarantee or this Indenture
other than the Trustee' certificate of authentication.

Section 7.05. Notice of Defaults.

            If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it
is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall
mail to each Noteholder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 30 days
after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives notice of such occurrence.
Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of the principal
of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Note or a Default or Event of Default
in the observance or performance of any of the obligations of the Issuer under
Article Five, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee
of its Responsible Officers in good faith determine(s) that withholding the
notice is in the best interest of the Noteholders.

Section 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders.

            If required by TIA Section 313(a), within 60 days after April 15 of
any year, commencing April 15, 2003, the Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder a
brief report dated as of such April 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a).
The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also
transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA Section 313(c) and TIA Section
313(d).

            Reports pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall be transmitted by mail:

            (1) to all Holders, as the names and addresses of such Holders
      appear on the Registrar's books; and

            (2) to such Holders as have, within the two years preceding such
      transmission, filed their names and addresses with the Trustee for that
      purpose.

            A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Noteholders
shall be filed with the Commission and each stock exchange on which the Notes
are listed. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing when the
Notes are listed on any stock exchange.

Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity.

            The Issuer and any Guarantor shall pay to the Trustee and Agents
from time to time such compensation for their services hereunder as may be
agreed from time to time by the parties (which compensation shall not be limited
by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express
trust). The Issuer and any Guarantor shall reimburse the Trustee and Agents upon
request for all disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or
<PAGE>
                                      -83-

made by them in connection with their duties under this Indenture, including the
compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel.

            The Issuer and any Guarantor shall indemnify and protect the
Trustee, any predecessor Trustee, each Agent and each of their officers,
directors, employees, agents, and attorneys for, and hold each of them harmless
against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense, including,
without limitation, taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee
or such Agent) and attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by each of them in
connection with the acceptance or performance of their duties under this
Indenture including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any
claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of
their powers or duties hereunder (including, without limitation, settlement
costs). The Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall notify the Issuer and
any Guarantor in writing promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee or
Agent for which they may seek indemnity. However, the failure by the Trustee or
Agent to so notify the Issuer and any Guarantors shall not relieve the Issuer
and any Guarantor of their obligations hereunder, except to the extent the
Issuer and any Guarantor are prejudiced thereby.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and any Guarantor need not
reimburse the Trustee or any Agent for any expense or indemnify them against any
loss or liability incurred by the Trustee or such Agent, as the case may be,
resulting from their own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. To
secure the payment obligations of the Issuer and any Guarantor in this Section
7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property
held or collected by the Trustee except such money or property held in trust to
pay principal of and interest on particular Notes. The obligations of the Issuer
and any Guarantor under this Section 7.07 to compensate and indemnify the
Trustee and each predecessor Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee and
each predecessor Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be joint
and several liabilities of the Issuer and any Guarantor and shall survive the
resignation or removal of the Trustee and the satisfaction, discharge or other
termination of this Indenture, including any termination or rejection hereof
under any Bankruptcy Law.

            When the Trustee incurs expenses or render services after an Event
of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) hereof occurs, the expenses and
the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

            For purposes of this Section 7.07, the term "Trustee" shall include
any trustee appointed pursuant to Article 9.

Section 7.08. Replacement of Trustee.

            The Trustee may resign at any time by notifying the Issuer and any
Guarantor in writing. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the outstanding Notes may remove a Trustee by notifying the Issuer and the
removed Trustee in writing and may
<PAGE>
                                      -84-

appoint a successor Trustee with the Issuer's written consent, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Issuer may remove a Trustee at its
election if:

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

            (2) a Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent;

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

            (4) a Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of performing its duties
      hereunder.

            If a Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall notify the Holders of such
event and shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the
successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding 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 a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes
may, at the Issuer's expense, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

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

            A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Immediately following
such delivery, the retiring Trustee shall, at the Issuer's expense, subject to
its rights under Section 7.07 hereof, transfer all property held by it as
Trustee to the successor Trustee, 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. A successor
Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Noteholder. Notwithstanding
replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer's and any
Guarantor's obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit
of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.09. Successor Trustee by Consolidation, Merger, Etc.

            If a Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or
transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust assets to, another
corporation, subject to Section 7.10
<PAGE>
                                      -85-

hereof, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor
Trustee; provided such entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under
this Article 7.

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

Section 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification.

            (a) This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of TIA Section 310(a)(1) and (2) in every respect. Any successor
Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$500,000,000
as set forth in the most recent applicable published annual report of condition.
The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b), including the provision in
Section 310(b)(1).

            (b) It is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no
violation of any law of any jurisdiction (including the laws of the Province of
Ontario) denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or
associations to transact business as the Trustee in such jurisdiction. It is
recognized that, in particular, in order to comply with any provision of the
Trust Indenture Legislation or in case of litigation under this Indenture, the
Notes, and in particular in case of the enforcement of this Indenture, upon a
Default or Event of Default, or in case the Trustee deems that by reason of any
present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers,
rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee or take any other action which
may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary,
appropriate or expeditious that the Trustee appoint, and the Trustee is hereby
empowered to so appoint, an additional individual or institution as a separate
trustee or co-trustee (the "Co-Trustee"). The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Issuer of any such appointment in writing, and any such Co-Trustee shall be
entitled to payment and reimbursement pursuant to Section 7.07.

            In the event that the Trustee appoints an additional individual or
institution as a Co-Trustee, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand,
cause of action and immunity expressed or intended by this Indenture, or by the
Notes to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect
thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such Co-Trustee, but only to the
extent necessary to enable such Co-Trustee to exercise such powers, rights and
remedies, and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by
such Co-Trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them; provided,
however, that for
<PAGE>
                                      -86-

all the purposes of this Indenture, a written notice to the Trustee by the
Issuer shall be deemed, except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, to
constitute a valid notice to any Co-Trustee. It is therefore recognized that it
will be the responsibility of the Trustee upon appointment by it of any
Co-Trustee to ensure that the Co-Trustee will receive, as and when needed for
the performance of its obligations and rights hereunder, any documents,
certificates or notices received by the Trustee from the Issuer pursuant to this
Indenture. Should any instrument in writing from the Issuer be required by the
Co-Trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in
and confirming to him, her or it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties
and obligations, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be
executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer. In the event that any
Co-Trustee or a successor thereto shall die, become incapable of acting, resign
or be removed, all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such
Co-Trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the
Trustee until the appointment of a new Co-Trustee.

Section 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer.

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

Section 7.12. Paying Agents.

            The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
execute and deliver to it and the Trustee an instrument in which such Agent
shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.12:

            (A) that it will hold all sums held by it as agent for the payment
      of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes (whether
      such sums have been paid to it by the Issuer or by any obligor on the
      Notes) in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee;

            (B) that it will at any time during the continuance of any Event of
      Default, upon written request from the Trustee, deliver to the Trustee all
      sums so held in trust by it together with a full accounting thereof; and

            (C) that it will give the Trustee written notice within three (3)
      Business Days of any failure of the Issuer (or by any obligor on the
      Notes) in the payment of any installment of the principal of, premium, if
      any, or interest on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable.
<PAGE>
                                      -87-

Section 7.13. Trustee Not To Be Appointed Receiver.

            Neither the Trustee nor any "related person," as defined in the
Business Corporations Act (Ontario), to the Trustee shall be appointed a
receiver or receiver and manager or liquidator of all or any part of the assets
or undertaking of the Issuer.

Section 7.14. Disclosure of Names and Addresses of Holders.

            (a) Upon written application to the Trustee in accordance with Trust
Indenture Legislation, Holders may communicate pursuant to Trust Indenture
Legislation with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture
or the Notes.

            (b) In addition, a Holder may, upon payment to the Trustee of a
reasonable fee and subject to compliance with any applicable requirement of
Trust Indenture Legislation, require the Trustee to furnish within 10 days after
receiving the affidavit or statutory declaration of such Holder referred to
below, a list setting out (i) the name and address of every Holder, (ii) the
aggregate principal amount of Notes owned by each Holder and (iii) the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Notes, each as shown on the records of the
Trustee on the day that the affidavit or statutory declaration is delivered to
the Trustee. The affidavit or statutory declaration, as the case may be, shall
contain (x) the name, address and occupation of the Holder, (y) where the Holder
is a corporation, its name and address for service and (z) a statement that the
list will not be used except in connection with an effort to influence the
voting of the Holders, an offer to acquire Notes, or any other matter relating
to the Notes or the affairs of the Issuer. Where the Holder is a corporation,
the affidavit or statutory declaration shall be made by a director or officer of
the Holder.

            (c) Every Holder, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the
Issuer and the Trustee that neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall be held
accountable by reason of the disclosure of such list of the names and addresses
of the Holders, regardless of the source from which such information was
derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing
any material pursuant to a request made under Trust Indenture Legislation.

                       AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS

Section 8.01. Without Consent of Holders.

            The Issuer and any Guarantor, when authorized by a Board Resolution
of each of them, and the Trustee may amend, waive or supplement this Indenture
or the Notes without notice to or consent of any Noteholder:

            (1) to comply with Section 5.01 hereof;

            (2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place
      of certificated Notes;

            (3) to comply with any requirements of the Commission under the TIA;

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

            (5) in reliance on an Opinion of Counsel, to make any other change
      that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any
      Noteholders hereunder;

            (6) to add a Guarantor;

            (7) to provide for the issuance of the Exchange Notes or the Private
      Exchange Notes in accordance with Section 2.01 hereof in a manner that
      does not adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder, as evidenced by an
      Opinion of Counsel; or

            (8) to appoint any Co-Trustee in accordance with Section 7.10
      hereof.

            The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Issuer in the
execution of any supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of
this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations
which may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter
into any such supplemental indenture which adversely affects its own rights,
duties or immunities under this Indenture.

Section 8.02. With Consent of Holders.

            The Issuer and any Guarantor (each when authorized by a Board
Resolution) and the Trustee may modify or supplement this Indenture and the
Notes with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes. The Holders of not less
than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may
waive compliance in writing in a particular instance by the Issuer with
<PAGE>
                                      -89-

any provision of this Indenture or the Notes. Subject to Section 8.04, without
the consent of each Noteholder affected, however, an amendment, supplement or
waiver, including a waiver pursuant to Section 6.04, may not:

            (1) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an
      amendment, supplement or waiver to this Indenture;

            (2) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest,
      including defaulted interest, on any Note;

            (3) reduce the principal of or premium on or change the stated
      maturity of any Note or change the date on which any Notes may be subject
      to redemption or repurchase or reduce the redemption or repurchase price
      thereof;

            (4) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the
      Note;

            (5) waive a default on the payment of the principal of, interest on,
      or redemption payment with respect to any Note;

            (6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture protecting
      the right of each Holder to receive payment of the principal of and
      interest on such Note on or after the due date thereof or to bring suit to
      enforce such payment, or permitting Holders of a majority in principal
      amount of Notes to waive Defaults or Events of Default;

            (7) subordinate the Notes or the Guarantees to any other
      Indebtedness or otherwise modify or change any provision of this Indenture
      or the related definitions affecting the ranking of the Notes in a manner
      which adversely affects the Holders; or

            (8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its
      Guarantee or this Indenture otherwise than in accordance with the terms of
      this Indenture.

            After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 8.02 or
Section 8.01 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders a notice
briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver.

            Upon the written request of the Issuer, accompanied by a Board
Resolution authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and
upon the receipt by the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the
consent of the Noteholders as aforesaid and upon receipt by the Trustee of the
documents described in Section 8.06 hereof, the Trustee shall, at the Issuer's
expense, join with the Issuer in the execution of such supplemental indenture
unless such supplemental indenture adversely affects the Trustee's own rights,
duties or immunities under this Indenture, in which case the Trustee may, but
shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.
<PAGE>
                                      -90-

            It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this
Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment,
supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the
substance thereof.

Section 8.03. Compliance with the TIA.

            Every amendment to or supplement of this Indenture or the Notes
shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

Section 8.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents.

            Until an amendment, supplement, waiver or other action becomes
effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and every subsequent Holder of the same Note or portion
thereof, and of any Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in place thereof, even if notation of the consent is not made on any
such Note. Any such Holder or subsequent Holder, however, may revoke the consent
as to his Note or portion of a Note, if the Trustee receives the written notice
of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement, waiver or other action
becomes effective.

            The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for
the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment,
supplement, or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the
preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or
their duly designated proxies), and only such 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 after such
record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days
after such record date unless the written consent of the requisite number of
Holders has been obtained.

            After an amendment, supplement, waiver or other action becomes
effective, it shall bind every Noteholder, unless it makes a change described in
any of clauses (1) through (8) of Section 8.02. In that case the amendment,
supplement, waiver or other action shall bind each Noteholder who has consented
to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences
the same Indebtedness as the consenting Holder's Note.

Section 8.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

            If an amendment, supplement, or waiver changes the terms of a Note,
the Trustee (in accordance with the specific written direction of the Issuer)
shall request the Holder of the Note (in accordance with the specific written
direction of the Issuer) to deliver it to the Trustee. In such case, the Trustee
shall place an appropriate notation (as determined in writing by the Issuer) on
the Note about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if
the Issuer so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue, any
Guaran-
<PAGE>
                                      -91-

tor shall endorse, and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects
the changed terms. 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 8.06. Trustee To Sign Amendments, etc.

            The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver
authorized pursuant to this Article 8 if the amendment, supplement or waiver
does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the
Trustee. If, in the reasonable judgment of the Trustee, it does, the Trustee
may, but need not, sign it. In signing or refusing to sign any amendment,
supplement or waiver the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to
Section 7.01 hereof, shall be fully protected in relying conclusively upon an
Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating, in addition to the
matters required by Section 12.04, that such amendment, supplement or waiver is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture and is a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantor, enforceable against the Issuer and
any Guarantor in accordance with its terms (subject to customary exceptions).

                                   ARTICLE 9.

                       DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE

Section 9.01. Discharge of Indenture.

            The Issuer may terminate its obligations under the Notes and this
Indenture as well as the obligations of any Guarantors under their respective
Guarantees, except those obligations referred to in the penultimate paragraph of
this Section 9.01 if:

            (1) either (a) all the Notes authenticated and delivered (except
      lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes
      for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held
      in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged
      from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or
      (b) all Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become
      due and payable and the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be
      deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and
      discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the
      Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest
      on the Notes to the date of deposit together with irrevocable written
      instructions from the Issuer directing the Trustee to apply such funds to
      the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

            (2) the Issuer has paid all other sums payable under this Indenture
      by the Issuer, including any amounts due to the Trustee; and
<PAGE>
                                      -92-

            (3) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
      and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this
      Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
      have been complied with.

            Notwithstanding the first paragraph of this Section 9.01, the
Issuer's obligations in Sections 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 4.21, 7.07, this
paragraph of this Section 9.01, 9.05 and 9.06 shall survive until the Notes are
no longer outstanding pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 2.09. After the
Notes are no longer outstanding, the Issuer's obligations in Sections 7.07, 9.05
and 9.06 shall survive.

            After such delivery or irrevocable deposit, the Trustee upon written
request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Issuer's and each
Guarantor's obligations under the Notes, the Guarantees and this Indenture
except for those surviving obligations specified above.

Section 9.02. Legal Defeasance.

            The Issuer may at its option, by Board Resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Issuer, be discharged from its obligations with respect to the
Notes on the date the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 below are satisfied
(hereinafter, "Legal Defeasance"). For this purpose, such Legal Defeasance means
that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire
Indebtedness represented by the Notes and to have satisfied all its other
obligations under such Notes and this Indenture insofar as such Notes are
concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall, subject to
Section 9.06 hereof, execute instruments in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee and Issuer acknowledging the same), except for the
following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from
the trust funds described in Section 9.04 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 obligations
with respect to such Notes under Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08,
2.09 and 4.21 hereof, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties, and immunities of
the Trustee hereunder (including claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or
pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof) and (D) this Article 9. Subject to compliance
with this Article 9, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 9.02
with respect to the Notes notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under
Section 9.03 below with respect to the Notes.

Section 9.03. Covenant Defeasance.

            At the option of the Issuer, pursuant to a Board Resolution of the
Board of Directors of the Issuer, the Issuer shall be released from its
respective obligations under Sections 4.02 through 4.20 and Sections 4.22
through 4.23 hereof, inclusive, with respect to the outstanding Notes on and
after the date the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof are sat-
<PAGE>
                                      -93-

isfied (hereinafter, "Covenant Defeasance"). For this purpose, such Covenant
Defeasance means that the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no
liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such
specified Section or portion thereof, whether directly or indirectly by reason
of any reference elsewhere herein to any such specified Section or portion
thereof or by reason of any reference in any such specified Section or portion
thereof to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the
remainder of this Indenture and the Notes shall be unaffected thereby.

Section 9.04. Conditions to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

            The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 9.02
or Section 9.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes:

            (1) the Issuer shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be
      deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements
      of Section 7.10 hereof who shall agree to comply with the provisions of
      this Article 9 applicable to it) as funds in trust for the purpose of
      making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and
      dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, money in
      U.S. dollars or Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment
      of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their
      terms, will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any
      payment on the Notes, money in U.S. dollars, or a combination thereof, in
      such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a
      nationally-recognized firm of independent public accountants reasonably
      satisfactory to the Trustee and expressed in a written certification
      thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge the principal of,
      premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes at the maturity date of
      such principal, premium, if any, or interest, or on dates for payment and
      redemption of such principal, premium, if any, and interest selected in
      accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of the Notes; provided
      that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed in writing to
      apply such money or the proceeds of such Government Obligations to the
      payment of such principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to
      the Notes;

            (2) no Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as Events of Default
      specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) are concerned, at any time during the
      period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit;

            (3) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the
      Trustee to have a conflicting interest for purposes of the TIA with
      respect to any securities of the Issuer;

            (4) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in
      a breach or violation of, or constitute default under this Indenture or
      any other material
<PAGE>
                                      -94-

      agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries are
      a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries are bound;

            (5) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of
      Counsel from U.S. Counsel stating that, as a result of such Legal
      Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, neither the trust nor the Trustee will
      be required to register as an investment company under the Investment
      Company Act of 1940, as amended;

            (6) in the case of an election under Section 9.02 above, the Issuer
      shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from U.S.
      counsel describing either a private ruling concerning the Notes or a
      published ruling of the Internal Revenue Service, to the effect that the
      Holders or persons in their positions will not recognize income, gain or
      loss for federal income tax purposes solely as a result of such Legal
      Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts,
      in the same manner, including as a result of prepayment, and at the same
      times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not
      occurred and an Opinion of Counsel from Canadian counsel reasonably
      acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders will not recognize
      income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial
      income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to
      Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax (including
      withholding tax) on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same
      times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;

            (7) in the case of an election under Section 9.03 hereof, the Issuer
      shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from U.S.
      counsel describing either a private ruling concerning the Notes or a
      published ruling of the Internal Revenue Service, to the effect that the
      Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
      purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to
      federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same
      times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not
      occurred and an Opinion of Counsel from Canadian counsel reasonably
      acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders will not recognize
      income, gain or loss for Canadian federal, provincial or territorial
      income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to
      Canadian federal, provincial or territorial income tax (including
      withholding tax) on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same
      times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;

            (8) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
      Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
      precedent provided for relating to either the Legal Defeasance under
      Section 9.02 above or the Covenant Defeasance under Section 9.03 hereof
      (as the case may be) have been complied with;
<PAGE>
                                      -95-

            (9) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
      Certificate stating that the deposit under clause (1) was not made by the
      Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors
      of the Issuer or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or
      defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or others;

            (10) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of
      Counsel to the effect after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust
      funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy,
      insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors' rights
      generally; and

            (11) the Issuer shall have paid or duly provided for payment under
      terms mutually satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee all amounts then
      due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinions of Counsel required by
clauses (5), (6) and (7) of this Section 9.04 need not be delivered if all Notes
not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (a) have become due
and payable or (b) will become due and payable on the Maturity Date within one
year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of
redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer.

Section 9.05. Deposited Money and Government Obligations To Be Held in Trust;
              Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

            All money and Government Obligations (including the proceeds
thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.04 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, to the Holders of such Notes, of
all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any,
and accrued interest. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to invest such
money or Government Obligations except as it may agree in writing with the
Issuer.

            The Issuer and any Guarantors shall (on a joint and several basis)
pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or
assessed against the money or Government Obligations deposited pursuant to
Section 9.04 hereof or the principal, premium, if any, 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 9 to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon an Issuer
Request any money or Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section
9.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally-recognized firm of independent
public accountants reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and expressed in a
written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the
<PAGE>
                                      -96-

amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an
equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 9.06. Reinstatement.

            If the Trustee or the Paying Agents are unable to apply any money or
Government Obligations, in accordance with this Article 9 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 and each Guarantor's obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and
the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred
pursuant to this Article 9 until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agents
are permitted to apply all such money or Government Obligations, in accordance
with this Article 9; provided that if the Issuer or the Guarantors have made any
payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest accrued on any Notes
because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuer or the Guarantors,
as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such
Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Obligations held by
the Trustee or Paying Agents.

Section 9.07. Moneys Held by Paying Agent.

            In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture,
all moneys then held by any Paying Agent under the provisions of this Indenture
shall, upon written demand of the Issuer, be paid to the Trustee, or if
sufficient moneys have been deposited pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof, to the
Issuer upon an Issuer Request, and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released
from all further liability with respect to such moneys.

Section 9.08. Moneys Held by Trustee.

            Subject to this Article 9, the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall
promptly pay to the Issuer (or, if appropriate, any Guarantors) upon written
request any excess moneys or Government Obligations held by it at any time and
thereupon shall be relieved from all liability with respect to such moneys or
Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust
for the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Note
that are not applied but remain unclaimed by the Holder of such Note for two
years after the date upon which the principal of, or premium, if any, or
interest on such Note shall have respectively become due and payable shall be
repaid to the Issuer (or, if appropriate, any Guarantors) upon written request
of the Issuer, and the Holder of such Note entitled to receive such payment
shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer and
any Guarantors for the payment thereof, unless applicable abandoned property law
designates another Person, and all liabilities of the Trustee or such Paying
Agent with respect to such moneys or Government Obligations shall thereupon
cease; provided that the Trustee or any such Paying Agent, before being required
to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Issuer and any
Guarantors, either mail to each Noteholder affected, at the address
<PAGE>
                                      -97-

shown in the Register of the Notes maintained by the Registrar pursuant to
Section 2.04 hereof, or cause to be published once a week for two successive
weeks in a newspaper published in the English language customarily published
each Business Day and of general circulation in the City of New York, New York,
a notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified
therein which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such mailing or
publication, any unclaimed balance of such moneys then remaining will be repaid
to the Issuer. After payment to the Issuer or the Guarantors or the release of
any money held in trust by the Issuer or any Guarantors, as the case may be,
Noteholders entitled to the money must look only to the Issuer and any
Guarantors for payment as general creditors unless applicable abandoned property
law designates another Person.

                                  ARTICLE 10.

                                   [RESERVED]

                                  ARTICLE 11.

                               GUARANTEE OF NOTES

Section 11.01. Guarantee.

            Subject to the provisions of this Article 11, each Guarantor, by
execution of a Guarantee, will jointly and severally unconditionally guarantee
to each Holder and to the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, (i) the due and
punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any,
on each Note (including any Additional Notes upon issuance in accordance with
Section 2.19), when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the due and punctual payment of interest
(including Additional Interest) on the overdue principal of, and premium, if
any, and interest, if any, on the Notes (including any Additional Notes upon
issuance in accordance with Section 2.19), to the extent lawful, and the due and
punctual performance of all other Obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or
the Trustee (including without limitation amounts due the Trustee under Section
7.7) all in accordance with the terms of such Note and this Indenture, and (ii)
in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes
(including any Additional Notes upon issuance in accordance with Section 2.19)
or any of such other Obligations, that the same will be promptly paid in full
when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal,
at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Each Guarantor, by execution
of a Guarantee, will agree that its obligations hereunder shall be absolute and
unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity,
irregularity or unenforceability of any such Note or this Indenture, any failure
to enforce the provisions of any such Note or this Indenture, any waiver,
modification or indulgence granted to
<PAGE>
                                      -98-

the Issuer with respect thereto by the Holder of such Note or the Trustee, or
any other circumstances which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of a surety or such Guarantor.

            Each Guarantor, by execution of a Guarantee, shall waive diligence,
presentment, demand for payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of
merger or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first
against the Issuer, protest or notice with respect to any such Note or the
Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and will covenant
that the Guarantee will not be discharged as to any such Note except by payment
in full of the principal thereof, premium, and interest, if any, thereon and as
provided in Section 9.01 hereof. Each Guarantor, by execution of a Guarantee,
shall further agree that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the
Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Obligations
guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of this Indenture
hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction
or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of
such Obligations as provided in Article 6 of this Indenture, such Obligations
(whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each
Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee. In addition, without limiting the
foregoing provisions, upon the effectiveness of an acceleration under Article 6
of this Indenture, the Trustee shall promptly make a demand for payment on the
Notes under the Guarantee provided for in this Article 11 and not discharged.
Failure to make such a demand shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
the Guarantee upon any Guarantor.

            A Guarantee shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose
with respect to a Note until the certificate of authentication on such Note
shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee.

            A Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be
effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation
or reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for
the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or
any significant part of the Issuer's assets, and shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be,
if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable
law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned
by any obligee on the Notes, whether as a "voidable preference," "fraudulent
transfer" or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been
made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced,
restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded,
reduced, restored or returned.

            No stockholder, officer, director, employer or incorporator, past,
present or future, of any Guarantor, as such, shall have any personal liability
under this Guarantee by reason of his, her or its status as such stockholder,
officer, director, employer or incorporator.

            A Guarantor, by execution of a Guarantee, will have the right to
seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such
right does not impair the rights of the Holders or the Trustee under such
Guarantee.

Section 11.02. Execution and Delivery of Guarantees.

            A Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of a Guarantor by the manual
or facsimile signature of an Officer of such Guarantor in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit G.

            If an Officer of a Guarantor whose signature is on the Guarantee no
longer holds that office, such Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

Section 11.03. Limitation of Guarantee.

            The Obligations of each Guarantor are limited to the maximum amount
as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of
such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made
by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the Obligations of such
other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution Obligations
under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under the
Guarantee (i) not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer,
or (ii) not being such that there would be reasonable grounds to believe such
Guarantor would not be able to meet the applicable financial tests, under
applicable federal, state, provincial or territorial law. Each Guarantor that
makes a payment or distribution under a Guarantee will be entitled to a
contribution from each other Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the
Adjusted Net Assets of each Guarantor.

Section 11.04. Additional Guarantors.

            Any Person may become a Guarantor by executing and delivering to the
Trustee (a) a supplemental indenture in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee, which subjects such Person to the provisions of this Indenture as a
Guarantor, 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 fraudulent conveyance laws, creditors'
rights and equitable principles as may be acceptable to the Trustee in its
discretion).

Section 11.05. Release of Guarantor.

            A Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and
discharged from all of its obligations under its Guarantee if:

            (1) (a) all of its assets or Capital Stock is sold, in each case in
      a transaction in compliance with Section 4.09, (b) the Guarantor merges
      with or into, or consolidates with or amalgamates with, or transfers all
      or substantially all of its assets to, another Person in compliance with
      Section 5.01, or (c) such Guarantor is designated an Unrestricted
      Subsidiary;

            (2) such Guarantor has delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
      Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
      precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been
      complied with; and

            (3) as of the date of such release any transaction to which such
      Guarantor had been a party that would have constituted an Affiliate
      Transaction, an Asset Sale or a Restricted Payment but for, or that
      constituted a Permitted Investment in reliance on, such Guarantor's status
      as a Guarantor could be consummated as an Affiliate Transaction, Asset
      Sale, Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment, as the case may be, in
      compliance with the applicable terms of this Indenture.

                                  ARTICLE 12.

execution and delivery of this Indenture or a supplemental indenture in
accordance with Article 8 hereof, each Guarantor (i) acknowledges that it will,
by separate written instrument, designate and appoint CanWest International
Corp., a Delaware corporation (and any successor entity) (the "Process Agent"),

proceeding arising out of or relating to the Notes or this Indenture that may be
instituted in any federal or state court in the State of New York, Borough of

hereunder), and acknowledges that the Process Agent has accepted such
designation, (ii) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in
any such suit, action or proceeding, and (iii) agrees that service of process

upon it in any such suit or proceeding. The Issuer and any Guarantor further
agree to take any and all action, including the execution and filing of any and
all such documents and instruments as may be necessary to continue such
designation and appointment of the Process Agent, in full force and effect so
long as this Indenture shall be in full force and effect; provided that the
Issuer may and shall (to the extent the Process Agent ceases to be able to be
served on the basis contemplated herein), by written notice to the Trustee,

this Section 12.09 that (i) maintains an office located in the Borough of

New York, State of New York. Upon the written request of any Holder, the Trustee
shall deliver such information to such Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
there shall, at all times, be at least one agent for service of process for the
Issuer and the Guarantors, if any, appointed and acting in accordance with this
Section 12.09.

                                     -105-

            To the extent that the Issuer or any Guarantor has or hereafter may
acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process
(whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in
aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its
Property, the Issuer and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives such immunity
in respect of its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes, to the extent
permitted by law.

Indenture.

Section 12.11. No Recourse Against Others.

upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Issuer or any Guarantor in

because of the creation of any Indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had
against any stockholder, officer, director or employee, as such, past, present
or future, of the Issuer or of any successor corporation or against the property
or assets of any such stockholder, officer, employee or director, either
directly or through the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any successor corporation
thereof, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by
the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly
understood that this Indenture and the Notes are solely obligations of the
Issuer and the Guarantors, and that no such personal liability whatever shall
attach to, or is or shall be incurred by, any stockholder, officer, employee or
director of the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any successor corporation thereof,
because of the creation of the Indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by
reason of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture
or the Notes or implied therefrom, and that any and all such personal liability
of, and any and all claims against every stockholder, officer, employee and
director, are hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a

            The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the
Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of
reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way
modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 12.15. Separability.

            Each provision of this Indenture shall be considered separable and
if for any reason any provision which is not essential to the effectuation of
the basic purpose of this Indenture or the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 12.16. Conversion of Judgment Currency.

            The Issuer and each Guarantor, if any, covenants and agrees that the
following provisions shall apply to conversion of currency for any judgments
outstanding against the Issuer or any Guarantor with respect to the Notes, the
Guarantees, if any, and this Indenture:

            (a) (i) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in, or enforcing
      the judgment of, any court in any country, it becomes necessary to convert
      into a currency (the "judgment currency") an amount due in any other
      currency (the "Base Currency"), then the conversion shall be made at the
      Rate of Exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which
      the judgment is given or the order of enforcement is made, as the case may
      be (unless a court shall otherwise determine).

            (ii) If there is a change in the Rate of Exchange prevailing between
      the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given or an order
      of enforcement is made, as the case may be (or such other date as a court
      shall determine), and the date of receipt of the amount due, the Issuer or
      the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will pay such additional (or,
      as the case may be, such lesser) amount, if any, as may be necessary so
      that the amount paid in the judgment currency when converted at the Rate
      of Exchange prevailing on the date of receipt will produce the amount in
      the Base Currency originally due.
<PAGE>
                                     -107-

            (b) In the event of the winding-up of the Issuer or any Guarantor at
      any time while any amount or damages owing under the Notes, the
      Guarantees, if any, and this Indenture, or any judgment or order rendered
      in respect thereof, shall remain outstanding, the Issuer or any Guarantor,
      as the case may be, shall indemnify, protect and hold the Holders and the
      Trustee harmless against any deficiency arising or resulting from any
      variation in Rates of Exchange between (1) the date as of which the
      equivalent of the amount in United States dollars due or contingently due
      under the Notes, the Guarantees, if any, and this Indenture (other than
      under this Subsection (b)) is calculated for the purposes of such
      winding-up and (2) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in
      such winding-up. For the purpose of this Subsection (b), the final date
      for the filing of proofs of claim in the winding-up of the Issuer or any
      Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be the date fixed by the liquidator
      or otherwise in accordance with the relevant provisions of applicable law
      as being the latest practicable date as at which liabilities of the Issuer
      or any Guarantor, as the case may be, may be ascertained for such
      winding-up prior to payment by the liquidator or otherwise in respect
      thereto.

            (c) The obligations contained in Subsections (a)(ii) and (b) of this
      Section 12.16 shall constitute separate and independent obligations of the
      Issuer and any Guarantors from their other respective obligations under
      the Notes, the Guarantees, if any, and this Indenture, shall give rise to
      separate and independent causes of action against the Issuer and each
      Guarantor, shall apply irrespective of any waiver or extension granted by
      any Holder or the Trustee or any of them from time to time and shall
      continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order or
      the filing of any proof of claim in the winding-up of the Issuer or any
      Guarantor for a liquidated sum in respect of amounts due hereunder (other
      than under Subsection (b) above) or under any such judgment or order. Any
      such deficiency as aforesaid shall be deemed to constitute a loss suffered
      by the Holders or the Trustee, as the case may be, and no proof or
      evidence of any actual loss shall be required by the Issuer or any
      Guarantor or the liquidator or otherwise or any of them. In the case of
      Subsection (b) above, the amount of such deficiency shall not be deemed to
      be reduced by any variation in Rates of Exchange occurring between the
      said final date and the date of any liquidating distribution.

            (d) The Trustee shall have no duty or liability with respect to
      monitoring or enforcing this Section 12.16.

                               CANWEST MEDIA INC.

                          7-5/8 % SENIOR NOTE DUE 2013

            1. Interest. CANWEST MEDIA INC., a corporation organized under the
federal laws of Canada (the "Issuer"), promises to pay, until the principal
hereof is paid or made available for payment, interest on the principal amount
set forth on the face hereof at a rate of 7-5/8% per annum. Interest hereon will
accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been paid
or, if no interest has been paid, from and including April 3, 2003 to but
excluding the date on which interest is paid. Interest shall be payable in
arrears on each April 15 and October 15 commencing October 15, 2003. Interest
will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. For
purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest which is
equivalent to the rate payable hereunder is the rate multiplied by the actual
number of days in the year and divided by 360. The Issuer shall pay interest on
overdue principal and on overdue interest (to the full extent permitted by law)
at the rate borne by the Notes.

            2. Method of Payment. The Issuer will pay interest hereon (except
defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of
business on April 1 or October 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date
(whether or not a Business Day). Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent
to collect principal payments. The Issuer will pay principal, premium, if any,
and interest on the Notes in the manner set forth in Article 2 of the Indenture.
Interest may be paid by check mailed to the Holder entitled thereto at the
address indicated on the register maintained by the Registrar for the Notes.

            3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New York, in
its capacity as Trustee (the "Trustee"), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar.
The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any
Holder. Neither the Issuer nor any of its Affiliates may act as Paying Agent or
Registrar.

            4. Indenture. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated
as of April 3, 2003 (the "Indenture") between the Issuer, the Guarantors and the
Trustee. This is one of an issue of Notes of the Issuer issued, or to be issued,
under the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the
Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code Section Section 77aaa-77bbbb), as amended
from time to time (the "TIA"). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and
Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them.
Capitalized and certain other terms used herein and not otherwise defined have
the meanings set forth in the Indenture. The Issuer shall be entitled to issue
Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.19 of the Indenture. The Notes include
the Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Notes pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement. All Notes issued under the Indenture are treated as a single
class of

                                       3
<PAGE>
securities under the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in
the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust
Indenture Act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred
to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency
between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the
Indenture shall control. This is one of the Notes referred to in the Indenture.

            5. Additional Amounts. The Issuer will pay to the Holders of Notes
such Additional Amounts as may become payable under Section 4.25 of the
Indenture.

            6. Optional Redemption. The Issuer, at its option, may redeem the
Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after April 15, 2008 upon not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior written notice, at the redemption prices
(expressed as percentages of principal amount), set forth below, together, in
each case, with accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date, if redeemed
during the twelve month period beginning on April 15 of each year listed below:

        ----                                                    ----------------
<S>                                                             <C>

        2009................................................        102.542%
        2010................................................        101.271%
        2011 and thereafter.................................        100.000%
</TABLE>

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may redeem in the
aggregate up to (i) 35% of the original principal amount of the Notes at any
time and from time to time prior to April 15, 2006 at a redemption price equal
to 107.625% of the aggregate principal amount so redeemed, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, out of the net cash proceeds of
one or more Equity Offerings; provided that at least 65% of the principal amount
of Notes originally issued (including the original principal amount of
Additional Notes) shall remain outstanding immediately after the occurrence of
any such redemption and that any such redemption occurs within 90 days following
the closing of any such Equity Offering.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding any other term of
the Notes or of the Indenture, until (i) the completion of an exchange offer
under the Registration Rights Agreement or (ii) if such an exchange offer is not
consummated within 165 days of the Issue Date, the filing of a shelf
registration statement covering resales of the Notes which is declared effective
under the Securities Act, the Issuer may not redeem in the aggregate more than
25% of the original principal amount of the Notes.

            In the event of a redemption of fewer than all of the Notes, the
Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed in compliance with the
requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which
such Notes are listed or, if such Notes are not then listed

                                       4
<PAGE>
on a national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or in such other
manner as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem fair and equitable. The
Notes will be redeemable in whole or in part upon not less than 30 nor more than
60 days' prior written notice, mailed by first class mail to a holder's last
address as it shall appear on the register maintained by the Registrar. On and
after any redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or
portions thereof called for redemption as long as sufficient funds to effect
such redemption are deposited by or on behalf of the Issuer with the Paying
Agent.

            7. Tax Redemption. The Notes will be redeemable, in whole but not in
part, at the option of the Issuer, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days'
prior written notice mailed by first class mail to each Holder of Notes at its
address appearing on the Register maintained by the Registrar, at 100% of the
principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to
the redemption date, if the Issuer or any Guarantor is or would become obligated
to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to
the Notes, any Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 4.25 of the Indenture as a
result of a change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulation or rulings
promulgated thereunder) of any Taxing Jurisdiction, or any change in, or
amendment to, any administrative or other official position regarding the
application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including,
without limitation, a ruling by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change
or amendment is announced on or after the Issue Date; provided that the Issuer
or such Guarantor determines, in its business judgment, that the obligation to
pay such Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures
available to the Issuer or such Guarantor (not including substitution of the
obligor under the Notes). No such notice of redemption may be given later than
180 days after the Issuer first becomes liable to pay any Additional Amounts as
a result of such change or amendment.

            8. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption will be mailed at
least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each
Holder of Notes to be redeemed at his registered address. On and after the
Redemption Date, unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment,
interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for
redemption.

            9. Offers to Purchase. The Indenture provides that upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control or an Asset Sale, and subject to further
limitations contained therein, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase
outstanding Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

            10. Legend. THIS NOTE IS A GLOBAL NOTE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE

            11. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered
form without coupons in denominations of U.S.$1,000 and integral multiples of
U.S.$1,000. A Holder may register the transfer or exchange of Notes in
accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other
things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay to
it any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The
Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portion of
a Note selected for redemption, or register the transfer of or exchange any
Notes for a period of 15 days before a mailing of notice of redemption.

            12. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of this Note may be
treated as the owner of this Note for all purposes.

            13. Unclaimed Money. If money for the payment of principal or
interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or a Paying Agent will pay
the money back to the Issuer (or, if appropriate, any Guarantors) at its written
request. After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer and
any Guarantors for payment as unsecured general creditors unless applicable
"abandoned property" law designates another Person.

            14. Amendment, Supplement, Waiver, Etc. The Issuer, any Guarantor
and the Trustee may, without the consent of the Holders of any outstanding
Notes, amend, waive or supplement the Indenture or the Notes for certain
specified purposes, including, among other things, curing ambiguities, defects
or inconsistencies, maintaining the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA
and making any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder.
Other amendments and modifications of the Indenture or the Notes may be made by
the Issuer, any Guarantor and the Trustee with the written consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of then
outstanding Notes, subject to certain exceptions requiring the written consent
of the Holders of the particular Notes to be affected.

            15. Restrictive Covenants. The Indenture imposes certain limitations
on the ability of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other
things, incur additional Indebtedness, make payments in respect of their Capital
Stock or certain Indebtedness, make certain Investments, create or incur liens,
enter into transactions with Affiliates, enter into agreements restricting the
ability of Restricted Subsidiaries to pay dividends and make distributions,
issue Preferred Stock of any Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer, enter into
sale and leaseback transactions and on the ability of the Issuer to merge or
consolidate with any other Person or transfer all or substantially all of the
Issuer's or any Guarantor's assets. Such limitations are subject to a number of
important qualifications and exceptions. Pursuant to

                                       6
<PAGE>
Section 4.04 of the Indenture, the Issuer must annually report to the Trustee in
writing on compliance with such limitations.

            16. Successor Corporation. When a successor corporation assumes all
the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and the Indenture and the
transaction complies with the terms of Article 5 of the Indenture, the
predecessor corporation will, except as provided in Article 5, be released from
those obligations.

            17. Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default are set forth in the
Indenture. Subject to certain limitations in the Indenture, if an Event of
Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) of
the Indenture with respect to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary) occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
principal amount of then outstanding Notes may, by written notice to the Trustee
and the Issuer, declare all principal of and accrued interest on all Notes to be
immediately due and payable and such amounts shall become immediately due and
payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) of the
Indenture occurs with respect to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, the
principal amount of and interest on, all Notes shall ipso facto become and be
immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of
the Trustee or any Holder. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes
except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Notes.
Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
then outstanding Notes may, in writing, direct the Trustee in its exercise of
any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any
continuing default (except a default in payment of principal, premium, if any,
or interest or a default in the observance or performance of any of the
obligations of the Issuer under Article 5 of the Indenture) if it determines in
its sole discretion that withholding notice is in the Holders' best interests.

            18. Trustee Dealings with Issuer. The Trustee, in its individual or
any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform
services for the Issuer, any Guarantor or their Affiliates, and may otherwise
deal with the Issuer, any Guarantor or their Affiliates, as if it were not a
Trustee.

            19. No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee
incorporator or stockholder, of the Issuer or any Guarantor shall have any
liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Notes,
the Indenture or the Guarantees or for a claim based on, in respect of, or by
reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting
a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part
of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

            20. Discharge. The Issuer's obligations pursuant to the Indenture
will be discharged, except for obligations pursuant to certain sections thereof,
subject to the terms of the Indenture, upon the payment of all the Notes or upon
the irrevocable deposit with the

                                       7
<PAGE>
Trustee of U.S. dollars or Government Obligations sufficient to pay when due
principal of and interest on the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case
may be.

            21. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee
manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this
Notes.

            22. Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. The Indenture contains
provisions for defeasance of the entire indebtedness on this Note and for
defeasance of certain covenants in the Indenture upon compliance by the Issuer
and Guarantors with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

            23. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the
Committee on Uniform Note Identification Procedures, the Issuer and Guarantors
have caused CUSIP Numbers to be printed on the Notes and have directed the
Trustee in writing to use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a
convenience to Holders of the Notes. 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.

            24. 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).

ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES

Dear Sirs:

            In connection with our proposed purchase of Notes, we confirm that:

            1. We are not a resident of Canada or a corporation or other entity
      governed by the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof.

            2. We understand that any subsequent transfer of the Notes is
      subject to certain restrictions and conditions set forth in the Indenture
      dated as of April , 2003 relating to the Notes and we agree to be bound
      by, and not to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Notes except in
      compliance with, such restrictions and conditions and the Securities Act
      of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and any applicable Canadian
      securities laws of any province or territory of Canada.

            3. We understand that the Notes have not been registered under the
      Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws, have not been and
      will not be qualified for sale under the securities laws of Canada or any
      province or territory thereof or any other non-U.S. jurisdiction and that
      the Notes may not be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred
      except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree, on our own behalf

      stated, that if we should sell any Notes, we will do so only (i) to the
      Issuer or any subsidiary thereof, (ii) in accordance with Rule 144A under
      the Securities Act to a "qualified institutional buyer" (as defined in
      Rule 144A), (iii) to an institutional "accredited investor" (as defined
      below) that, prior to such transfer, furnishes (or has furnished on its
      behalf by a U.S. broker-dealer) to you a signed letter containing certain
      representations and agreements relating to the restrictions on transfer of
      the Notes, (iv) outside the United States to persons other than U.S.
      persons in offshore transactions meeting the requirements of Rule 904 of
      Regulation S under the Securities Act, (v) pursuant to

      Act (if applicable) or (vi) pursuant to an effective registration
      statement under the Securities Act, and we further agree to provide to any
      person purchasing any of the Notes from us a notice advising such
      purchaser that resales of the Notes are restricted as stated herein.

            4. We understand that, on any proposed resale of any Notes, we will
      be required to furnish to you and the Issuer such certifications, legal
      opinions and other information as you and the Issuer may reasonably
      require to confirm that the proposed sale complies with the foregoing
      restrictions. We further understand that the Notes purchased by us will
      bear a legend to the foregoing effect.

            5. We are an institutional "accredited investor" (as defined in Rule
      501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act) and have such
      knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be
      capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes,
      and we and any accounts for which we are acting each are able to bear the
      economic risk of our or their investment, as the case may be.

            6. We are acquiring the Notes purchased by us for our account or for
      one or more accounts (each of which is an institutional "accredited
      investor") as to each of which we exercise sole investment discretion.

      Canada and (a) we acknowledge that transfers of Notes to residents of
      Canada may be restricted under certain circumstances and (b) we agree to

                               [FORM OF GUARANTEE]

            THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE GUARANTORS TO THE HOLDERS OF NOTES PURSUANT
TO THIS GUARANTEE AND THE INDENTURE DATED AS OF APRIL 3, 2003, BY AND AMONG
CANWEST MEDIA INC. (THE "COMPANY"), THE GUARANTORS NAMED THEREIN AND THE TRUSTEE
NAMED THEREIN (THE "INDENTURE") ARE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 11 OF THE
INDENTURE, AND REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO SUCH INDENTURE FOR THE PRECISE TERMS
OF THIS GUARANTEE. THE TERMS OF THE INDENTURE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION
ARTICLE 11, ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE.

            Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally,
unconditionally guarantees to each Noteholder, irrespective of the validity and
enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company
thereunder, that: (a) the principal of and premium and interest on the Notes
shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at the Maturity Date, by
acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of
(and any premium) and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other
obligations of the Company to the Noteholders thereunder shall be promptly paid
in full or 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
obligations, that the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed
in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at the
Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any
amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the
Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately.
Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the
Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any
waiver or consent by any Noteholder with respect to any provisions thereof, the
recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or
any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence,
presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of
insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first
against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants
that, subject to Article 11 of the Indenture, this Guarantee shall not be
discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the
Notes and the Indenture.

            If any Noteholder is required by any court or otherwise to return to
the Company or Guarantors, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other
similar official acting in relation to either the Company or Guarantors, any
amount paid to such Noteholder, this Guaran-

                                       G-1
<PAGE>
tee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and
effect. Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Noteholders in respect of any obligations
guaranteed hereby until such time as the Indebtedness of the Company evidenced
by the Note shall have been paid in full. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as
between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Noteholders, on the other hand,
(a) the Maturity Date of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as
provided in Section 6.02 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration in respect of the obligations Guaranteed hereby, and (b) in the
event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in
Section 6.02 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable)
shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this
Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any
non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the
rights of the Noteholders under the Guarantees.

            Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Noteholder,
hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that this Guarantee
not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any
Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act or any similar federal, state, provincial or territorial law to the
extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the
Noteholders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of
each Guarantor under this Guarantee and Article 11 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 such 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 Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under
Article 11 of the Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under
this Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

            This is a continuing Guarantee and shall remain in full force and
effect and shall be binding upon the undersigned Guarantors and their respective
successors and assigns to the extent set forth in the Indenture until full and
final payment of all of the Company's obligations under the Notes and the
Indenture and shall inure to the benefit of the Noteholders and their successors
and assigns and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any
Noteholder, 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 and of Article 11 of the Indenture.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantor that satisfies the provisions of
Section 11.05 of the Indenture shall be released of its obligations hereunder.

            THIS GUARANTEE SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH,
AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK, EXCLUDING CHOICE-

                                      G-2

2.       Exchange Offer

                     (a)      Each of the Issuers agrees to file with the
         Commission no later than the Filing Date, an offer to exchange (the
         "Exchange Offer") any and all of the Registrable Notes (other than
         Private Exchange Notes, if any) for a like aggregate principal amount
         of debt securities of the Company which are identical in all material
         respects, and representing the same continuing indebtedness as, to the
         Notes (the "Exchange Notes") (and which are entitled to the benefits of
         the Indenture or a trust indenture which is identical in all material
         respects to the Indenture (including, without limitation, the guarantee
         provisions thereof) (other than such changes to the Indenture or any
         such identical trust indenture as are necessary to comply with any
         requirements of the Commission to effect or maintain the qualification
         thereof under the TIA or which eliminate the transfer restrictions on
         the Notes or provisions for the payment of additional interest in
         certain circumstances) and which, in either case, has been qualified
         under the TIA), except that the Exchange Notes shall have been
         registered pursuant to an effective Registration Statement under the
         Securities Act and shall contain no restrictive legend thereon or
         provisions for the payment of additional interest under certain
         circumstances. The Exchange Offer shall be registered under the
         Securities Act on the appropriate form (the "Exchange Registration
         Statement") and shall comply with all applicable tender offer rules and
         regulations under the Exchange Act. Each of the Issuers agrees to use
         its reasonable best efforts to (x) cause the Exchange Registration
         Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act on or
         before the Effectiveness Date; (y) keep the Exchange Offer open for not
         less than 20 Business Days (or longer if required by applicable law)
         after the date that notice of the Exchange Offer is first mailed to
         Holders; and (z) consummate the Exchange Offer on or prior to the 135th
         day following the Issue Date. If after such Exchange Registration
         Statement is initially declared effective by the Commission, the
         Exchange Offer or the issuance of the Exchange Notes thereunder is
         interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or
         requirement of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court
         with respect to such Exchange Offer, such Exchange Registration
         Statement shall be deemed not to have become effective for purposes of
         this Agreement. Each Holder who participates in the Exchange Offer will
         be required to represent (i) that any Exchange Notes received by it
         will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business, (ii) that at
         the time of the consummation of the Exchange Offer such Holder will
         have no arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in
         the distribution of the Exchange Notes, (iii) that such Holder is not
         an affiliate of any Issuer within the meaning of the Securities Act,
         and (iv) any additional representations that in the written opinion of
         counsel to the Issuers are

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

         necessary under then-existing interpretations of the Commission in
         order for the Exchange Registration Statement to be declared effective.
         Upon consummation of the Exchange Offer in accordance with this Section
         2, the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to apply, mutatis
         mutandis, solely with respect to Registrable Notes that are Private
         Exchange Notes, Exchange Notes as to which Section 2(c)(iv) is
         applicable and Exchange Notes held by Participating Broker-Dealers, and
         the Issuers shall have no further obligation to register Registrable
         Notes (other than Private Exchange Notes and other than in respect of
         any Exchange Notes as to which clause 2(c)(iv) hereof applies) pursuant
         to Section 3 of this Agreement.

                     (b)      The Issuers shall include within the Prospectus
         contained in the Exchange Registration Statement a section entitled
         "Plan of Distribution," reasonably acceptable to the Initial
         Purchasers, which shall contain a summary statement of the positions
         taken or policies made by the Staff of the Commission with respect to
         the potential "underwriter" status of any broker-dealer that is the
         beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of
         Exchange Notes received by such broker-dealer in the Exchange Offer (a
         "Participating Broker-Dealer"), whether such positions or policies have
         been publicly disseminated by the Staff of the Commission or such
         positions or policies, in the judgment of the Initial Purchasers,
         represent the prevailing views of the Staff of the Commission. Such
         "Plan of Distribution" section shall also expressly permit, to the
         extent permitted by applicable policies and regulations of the
         Commission, the use of the Prospectus by all Persons subject to the
         prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including, to
         the extent so permitted, all Participating Broker-Dealers, and include
         a statement describing the manner in which Participating Broker-Dealers
         may resell the Exchange Notes.

                  Each of the Issuers shall use its reasonable best efforts to
keep the Exchange Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement
the Prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such Prospectus to be
lawfully delivered by all Persons subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time beginning when the
Exchange Notes are first issued in the Exchange Offer and ending upon the
earlier of the expiration of the 180th day after the Exchange Offer has been
completed and such Persons are no longer required to comply with the prospectus
delivery requirements in connection with offers and sales of the Exchange Notes
(the "Applicable Period").

                  If, upon the consummation of the Exchange Offer, any Initial
Purchaser holds any Notes acquired by it that have the status of an unsold
allotment in the initial distribution, the Issuers upon the request of such
Initial Purchaser shall, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Notes
in the Exchange Offer, issue and deliver to such Initial Purchaser, in exchange
(the "Private Exchange") for the Notes held by such Initial Purchaser, a like
principal amount of debt securities of the Company that are identical in all
material respects to the Exchange Notes except for the existence of restrictions
on transfer thereof under the Securities

                                       -6-

<PAGE>

Act and securities laws of the several states of the U.S. (the "Private Exchange
Notes") (and which are issued pursuant to the same indenture as the Exchange
Notes). The Private Exchange Notes shall bear the same CUSIP number as the
Exchange Notes. Interest on the Exchange Notes and Private Exchange Notes will
accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the
Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the
Notes, from the Issue Date.

                  In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall:

                     (1)      mail, or cause to be mailed, to each Holder a copy
         of the Prospectus forming part of the Exchange Registration Statement,
         together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related
         documents;

                     (2)      utilize the services of a depositary for the
         Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
         New York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate thereof;

                     (3)      permit Holders to withdraw tendered Registrable
         Notes at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the
         last Business Day on which the Exchange Offer shall remain open; and

                     (4)      otherwise comply in all material respects with all
         applicable laws.

                  As soon as practicable after the close of the Exchange Offer
or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Issuers shall:

                     (1)      accept for exchange all Registrable Notes validly
         tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer or
         the Private Exchange;

                     (2)      deliver to the Trustee for cancellation in
         accordance with the Indenture all Registrable Notes so accepted for
         exchange; and

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

                  The Exchange Notes and the Private Exchange Notes may be
issued under (i) the Indenture or (ii) an indenture identical in all material
respects to the Indenture, which in either event will provide that the Exchange
Notes will not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the
Indenture and that the Exchange Notes, the Private Exchange Notes and the Notes,
if any, will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none
of the Exchange Notes, the Private Exchange Notes or the Notes, if any, will
have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter. For greater
certainty, the Exchange Notes and the

                                       -7-

<PAGE>

Private Exchange Notes, if any, that will be issued in exchange and in
substitution for the Notes will evidence the same continuing indebtedness as the
Notes.

                     (c)      If (i) because of any change in law or in
         currently prevailing interpretations of the Staff of the Commission,
         the Company is not permitted to effect an Exchange Offer, (ii) the
         Exchange Offer is not consummated within 165 days of the Issue Date,
         (iii) any holder of Private Exchange Notes so requests in writing to
         the Company or (iv) in the case of any Holder that participates in the
         Exchange Offer (and tenders its Registrable Notes prior to the
         expiration thereof), such Holder does not receive Exchange Notes on the
         date of the exchange that may be sold without restriction under federal
         securities laws (other than due solely to the status of such Holder as
         an affiliate of any Issuer within the meaning of the Securities Act)
         and so notifies the Company within 30 days following the consummation
         of the Exchange Offer (and providing a reasonable basis for its
         conclusions), in the case of each of clauses (i)-(iv), then the Issuers
         shall promptly deliver to the Holders and the Trustee written notice
         thereof (the "Shelf Notice") and shall file a Shelf Registration
         pursuant to Section 3.

                     (d)      Any distribution in Canada of the Exchange Notes
         will be effected solely to holders of Registrable Notes who would be
         eligible to acquire Exchange Notes pursuant to exemptions from the
         requirement under applicable Canadian securities legislation that the
         Company prepare and file a prospectus with the relevant Canadian
         securities regulatory authorities and, as a condition to the sale of
         their Registrable Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer, holders of
         Registrable Notes in Canada will be required to make certain
         representations to the Company, including a representation that they
         are entitled under applicable provincial securities laws to acquire the
         Exchange Notes without the benefit of a prospectus qualified under
         applicable provincial securities laws.

3.       Shelf Registration

                  If a Shelf Notice is delivered as contemplated by Section
2(c), then:

                     (a)      Shelf Registration. The Issuers shall as promptly
         as reasonably practicable file with the Commission a Registration
         Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to
         Rule 415 covering all of the Registrable Notes (the "Initial Shelf
         Registration"). If the Issuers shall not have yet filed the Exchange
         Registration Statement, each of the Issuers shall file with the
         Commission the Initial Shelf Registration on or prior to the Filing
         Date and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Initial
         Shelf Registration to be declared effective under the Securities Act on
         or prior to the Effectiveness Date. Otherwise, the Issuers shall file
         with the Commission the Initial Shelf Registration within 90 days of
         the delivery of the Shelf Notice and shall use their best efforts to
         cause such Shelf Registration to be declared effective under the
         Securities Act on or prior to the Effectiveness Date. The Initial Shelf
         Registration shall be on Form F-1 or

                                       -8-

<PAGE>

         another appropriate form permitting registration of the Registrable
         Notes for resale by Holders in the manner or manners designated by them
         (including, without limitation, one or more underwritten offerings).
         The Issuers shall not permit any securities other than the Registrable
         Notes to be included in any Shelf Registration. The Issuers shall use
         their best efforts to keep the Initial Shelf Registration continuously
         effective under the Securities Act until the date which is 24 months
         from the Issue Date (or, if Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act is
         amended to permit unlimited resales by non-affiliates within a lesser
         period, such lesser period) (subject to extension pursuant to the last
         paragraph of Section 5 hereof) (the "Effectiveness Period") or such
         shorter period ending when (i) all Registrable Notes covered by the
         Initial Shelf Registration have been sold in the manner set forth and
         as contemplated in the Initial Shelf Registration or (ii) a Subsequent
         Shelf Registration covering all of the Registrable Notes has been
         declared effective under the Securities Act.

                     (b)      Subsequent Shelf Registrations. If the Initial
         Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration ceases to be
         effective for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period
         (other than because of the sale of all of the securities registered
         thereunder), the Issuers shall use their best efforts to obtain the
         prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof,
         and in any event shall within 30 days of such cessation of
         effectiveness amend the Shelf Registration in a manner to obtain the
         withdrawal of the order suspending the effectiveness thereof, or file
         an additional "shelf" Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415
         covering all of the Registrable Notes (a "Subsequent Shelf
         Registration"). If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the
         Issuers shall use their best efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf
         Registration to be declared effective as soon as practicable after such
         filing and to keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration continuously
         effective for a period equal to the number of days in the Effectiveness
         Period less the aggregate number of days during which the Initial Shelf
         Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registrations was previously
         continuously effective. As used herein the term "Shelf Registration"
         means the Initial Shelf Registration and any Subsequent Shelf
         Registration.

                     (c)      Supplements and Amendments. The Issuers shall use
         their best efforts to promptly supplement and amend any Shelf
         Registration if required by the rules, regulations or instructions
         applicable to the registration form used for such Shelf Registration,
         if required by the Securities Act, or if reasonably requested by the
         Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable
         Notes covered by such Shelf Registration or by any underwriter of such
         Registrable Notes, in each case, with each Issuer's consent, which
         consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

4.       Additional Interest

                     (a)      The Issuers and the Initial Purchasers agree that
         the Holders of Registrable Notes will suffer damages if the Issuers
         fail to fulfill their obligations under Sec-

                                       -9-

<PAGE>

         tion 2 or Section 3 hereof and that it would not be feasible to
         ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, each
         of the Issuers agrees to pay, as liquidated damages, additional
         interest ("Additional Interest") on the Registrable Notes under the
         circumstances and to the extent set forth below:

                           (i)      if (A) neither the Exchange Registration
                  Statement nor the Initial Shelf Registration has been filed on
                  or prior to the Filing Date or (B) notwithstanding that the
                  Issuers have consummated or will consummate an Exchange Offer,
                  the Issuers are required to file a Shelf Registration and such
                  Shelf Registration is not filed on or prior to the 90th day
                  after delivery of the Shelf Notice, then, in the case of
                  subclause (A), commencing on the day after the Filing Date or,
                  in the case of subclause (B), commencing on the 91st day
                  following delivery of the Shelf Notice, Additional Interest
                  shall accrue on the Registrable Notes over and above the
                  stated interest at a rate of 0.50% per annum for the first 90
                  days immediately following the Filing Date or such 90th day,
                  as the case may be, such Additional Interest rate increasing
                  by an additional 0.25% per annum at the beginning of each
                  subsequent 90-day period;

                           (ii)     if (A) neither the Exchange Registration
                  Statement nor the Initial Shelf Registration is declared
                  effective on or prior to the Effectiveness Date applicable
                  thereto or (B) notwithstanding that the Issuers have
                  consummated or will consummate an Exchange Offer, the Issuers
                  are required to file a Shelf Registration and such Shelf
                  Registration is not declared effective by the Commission on or
                  prior to the applicable Effectiveness Date, then, commencing
                  on the day after such applicable Effectiveness Date,
                  Additional Interest shall accrue on the Registrable Notes over
                  and above the stated interest at a rate of 0.50% per annum for
                  the first 90 days immediately following the day after the
                  applicable Effectiveness Date, such Additional Interest rate
                  increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum at the beginning
                  of each subsequent 90-day period; and

                           (iii)    if (A) the Issuers have not exchanged
                  Exchange Notes for all Notes validly tendered in accordance
                  with the terms of the Exchange Offer on or prior to the 165th
                  day after the Issue Date, (B) the Exchange Registration
                  Statement ceases to be effective at any time prior to
                  consummation of the Exchange Offer or (C) if applicable, a
                  Shelf Registration has been declared effective and such Shelf
                  Registration ceases to be effective at any time during the
                  Effectiveness Period, then Additional Interest shall accrue on
                  the Registrable Notes over and above the stated interest at a
                  rate of 0.50% per annum for the first 90 days commencing on
                  the (x) 165th day after the Issue Date in the case of (A)
                  above or (y) the day such Exchange Registration Statement or
                  Shelf Registration ceases to be effective in the case of (B)
                  and (C) above, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an
                  additional 0.25% per annum at the beginning of each such
                  subsequent 90-day period;

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

provided, however, that the Additional Interest rate on the Registrable Notes
may not exceed in the aggregate 2.0% per annum; provided further that if more
than one of the foregoing subparagraphs is applicable at the same time the
Additional Interest then payable on the Registrable Notes shall be the higher of
the amounts provided by such applicable subparagraphs (and not the sum thereof);
provided further that (1) upon the filing of the Exchange Registration Statement
or each Shelf Registration (in the case of (i) above), (2) upon the
effectiveness of the Exchange Registration Statement or each Shelf Registration,
as the case may be (in the case of (ii) above), or (3) upon the exchange of
Exchange Notes for all Registrable Notes tendered (in the case of (iii)(A)
above) or upon the effectiveness of an Exchange Registration Statement or Shelf
Registration which had ceased to remain effective (in the case of (iii)(B) and
(C) above), Additional Interest on any Registrable Notes then accruing
Additional Interest as a result of such clause (or the relevant subclause
thereof), as the case may be, shall cease to accrue.

                     (b)      The Issuers shall notify the Trustee within five
         Business Days after each and every date on which an event occurs in
         respect of which Additional Interest is required to be paid (an "Event
         Date"). Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to (a)(i),
         (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) of this Section 4 will be payable in cash on each
         regular interest payment date specified in the Indenture (to the
         Holders of Registrable Notes of record on the regular record date
         therefor (as specified in the Indenture) immediately preceding such
         dates), commencing with the first such regular interest payment date
         occurring after any such Additional Interest commences to accrue. The
         amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the
         applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the
         Notes subject thereto, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which
         is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable
         during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised
         of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360.

                     (c)      Additional Interest pursuant to this Section 4
         shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any failure by the Issuers
         to comply with Sections 2, 3 and 5 hereof.

5.       Registration Procedures

                  In connection with the filing of any Registration Statement
pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 hereof, each Issuer shall effect such registrations
to permit the sale of such securities covered thereby in accordance with the
intended method or methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto and in
connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Issuers hereunder, the
Issuers shall:

                     (a)      Prepare and file with the Commission prior to the
         Filing Date, the Exchange Registration Statement or if the Exchange
         Registration Statement is not filed or is unavailable, a Shelf
         Registration as prescribed by Section 2 or 3, and use their reasonable

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

         best efforts in the case of the Exchange Registration Statement and
         best efforts in the case of the Shelf Registration Statement to cause
         each such Registration Statement to become effective and remain
         effective as provided herein; provided that, if (1) a Shelf
         Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus
         contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed pursuant to
         Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any
         Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the
         Applicable Period and has advised the Company that it is a
         Participating Broker-Dealer, before filing any Registration Statement
         or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Issuers
         shall, if requested, furnish to and afford the Holders of the
         Registrable Notes to be registered pursuant to such Shelf Registration
         or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, covered
         by such Registration Statement, their counsel and the managing
         underwriters, if any, a reasonable opportunity to review copies of all
         such documents (including copies of any documents to be incorporated by
         reference therein and all exhibits thereto) proposed to be filed (in
         each case at least five days prior to such filing). The Issuers shall
         not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
         amendments or supplements thereto if the Holders of a majority in
         aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes covered by such
         Registration Statement, or any such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the
         case may be, their counsel, or the managing underwriters, if any, shall
         reasonably object on a timely basis.

                     (b)      Prepare and file with the Commission such
         amendments and post-effective amendments to each Shelf Registration or
         Exchange Registration Statement, as the case may be, as may be
         necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective
         for the Effectiveness Period or the Applicable Period, as the case may
         be; cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any Prospectus
         supplement required by applicable law, and as so supplemented to be
         filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force)
         under the Securities Act; and comply with the provisions of the
         Securities Act and the Exchange Act applicable to it with respect to
         the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration
         Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented and
         with respect to the subsequent resale of any securities being sold by a
         Participating Broker-Dealer covered by any such Prospectus. The Issuers
         shall be deemed not to have used their best efforts to keep a
         Registration Statement effective during the Applicable Period if they
         voluntarily take any action that would result in selling Holders of the
         Registrable Notes covered thereby or Participating Broker-Dealers
         seeking to sell Exchange Notes not being able to sell such Registrable
         Notes or such Exchange Notes during that period unless such action is
         required by applicable law, rule or regulation or unless the Issuers
         comply with this Agreement, including, without limitation, the
         provisions of paragraph 5(k) hereof and the last paragraph of Section
         5.

                     (c)      If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to
         Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration
         Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under
         the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who

                                      -12-

<PAGE>

         seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period from whom the
         Issuers have received written notice that it will be a Participating
         Broker-Dealer, notify the selling Holders of Registrable Notes, and
         each such Participating Broker-Dealer, their counsel and the managing
         underwriters, if any, promptly (but in any event within two Business
         Days), and confirm such notice in writing, (i) when a Prospectus or any
         Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and,
         with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective
         amendment, when the same has become effective (including in such notice
         a written statement that any Holder may, upon request, obtain, without
         charge, one conformed copy of such Registration Statement or
         post-effective amendment including financial statements and schedules,
         documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference and
         exhibits), (ii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order
         suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any
         order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or
         the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) if at any
         time when a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be
         delivered in connection with sales of the Registrable Notes the
         representations and warranties of any Issuer contained in any agreement
         with the selling Holders (including any underwriting agreement
         contemplated by Section 5(n) hereof) cease to be true and correct in
         any material respect, (iv) of the receipt by any Issuer of any
         notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or
         exemption from qualification of a Registration Statement or any of the
         Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes to be sold by any Participating
         Broker-Dealer for offer or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation
         or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the happening
         of any event, the existence of any condition or any information
         becoming known that makes any statement made in such Registration
         Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed
         to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect
         or that requires the making of any changes in, or amendments or
         supplements to, such Registration Statement, Prospectus or documents so
         that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain
         any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
         fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
         therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will
         not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
         any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
         the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
         they were made, not misleading, and (vi) of the Issuers' determination
         that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be
         appropriate.

                     (d)      If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to
         Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration
         Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under
         the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell
         Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, use its reasonable best
         efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the
         effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order preventing or
         suspending the use of a Prospectus or suspending the qualification (or
         exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Notes or the
         Ex-

         any jurisdiction, and, if any such order is issued, to use its best
         efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest
         possible date.

                     (e)      If a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to
         Section 3 and if requested by the managing underwriters, if any, or the
         Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable
         Notes being sold in connection with an underwritten offering, (i) as
         promptly as practicable incorporate in a prospectus supplement or
         post-effective amendment such information or revisions to information
         therein relating to such underwriters or selling Holders as the
         managing underwriters, if any, or such Holders or their counsel
         reasonably request to be included or made therein, (ii) make all
         required filings of such prospectus supplement or such post-effective
         amendment as soon as practicable after the Issuers have received
         notification of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus
         supplement or post-effective amendment, and (iii) supplement or make
         amendments to such Registration Statement.

                     (f)      If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to
         Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration
         Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under
         the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell
         Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, furnish to each selling
         Holder of Registrable Notes and to each such Participating
         Broker-Dealer who so requests and to counsel and each managing
         underwriter, if any, without charge, one conformed copy of the
         Registration Statement or Registration Statements and each
         post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and
         schedules, and, if requested, all documents incorporated or deemed to
         be incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits.

                     (g)      If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to
         Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration
         Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under
         the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer, deliver to each
         selling Holder of Registrable Notes or each such Participating
         Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, their respective counsel, and the
         underwriters, if any, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus
         or Prospectuses (including each form of preliminary prospectus) and
         each amendment or supplement thereto and any documents incorporated by
         reference therein as such Persons may reasonably request; and, subject
         to the last paragraph of this Section 5, the Issuers hereby consent to
         the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by
         each of the selling Holders of Registrable Notes and each Participating
         Broker-Dealer, and the underwriters or agents, if any, and dealers (if
         any), in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Notes
         covered by, or the sale by Participating Broker-Dealers of the Exchange
         Notes pursuant to, such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement
         thereto.

                     (h)      Prior to any public offering of Registrable Notes
         or any delivery of a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Registration
         Statement by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange
         Notes during the Applicable Period, use its reasonable best efforts to
         register or qualify, and cooperate with the selling Holders of
         Registrable Notes and each such Participating Broker-Dealer, the
         underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection with
         the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration
         or qualification) of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes, as the
         case may be, for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws
         of such jurisdictions within the United States as any selling Holder,
         Participating Broker-Dealer, or the managing underwriter or
         underwriters, if any, reasonably request in writing; provided that
         where Exchange Notes held by Participating Broker-Dealers or
         Registrable Notes are offered pursuant to an underwritten offering,
         counsel to the underwriters shall, at the cost and expense of the
         Issuers, perform the Blue Sky investigations and file registrations and
         qualifications required to be filed pursuant to this Section 5(h); keep
         each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom)
         effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to
         be kept effective and do any and all other acts or things reasonably
         necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions
         of the Exchange Notes by Participating Broker-Dealers or the
         Registrable Notes covered by the applicable Registration Statement;
         provided that no Issuer shall be required to (A) qualify generally to
         do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (B)
         take any action that would subject it to general service of process in
         any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or (C) subject
         itself to taxation in excess of a nominal dollar amount in any such
         jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

                     (i)      If a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to
         Section 3, cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Notes, any
         Participating Broker-Dealer and the managing underwriter or
         underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
         of certificates representing Registrable Notes to be sold, which
         certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends and shall be in a
         form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company; and enable
         such Registrable Notes to be in such denominations and registered in
         such names as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or
         Holders may reasonably request.

                     (j)      Use its reasonable best efforts to cause the
         Registrable Notes covered by the Registration Statement to be
         registered with or approved by such governmental agencies or
         authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof
         or the underwriters, if any, to consummate the disposition of such
         Registrable Notes, in which case the Issuers will cooperate in all
         reasonable respects with the filing of such Registration Statement and
         the granting of such approvals.

                     (k)      If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to
         Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration
         Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is re-

         quired to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating
         Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable
         Period, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraph
         5(c)(v) or 5(c)(vi) hereof, as promptly as practicable prepare and
         (subject to Section 5(a) hereof) file with the Commission, at the
         Issuers' sole expense, a supplement or post-effective amendment to the

         reference, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter
         delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Notes being sold
         thereunder or to the purchasers of the Exchange Notes to whom such
         Prospectus will be delivered by a Participating Broker-Dealer, any such
         Prospectus will not 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, in the light of the
         circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

                     (l)      Use its reasonable best efforts to cause the
         Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement to be rated with
         the appropriate rating agencies, if so requested by the Holders of a
         majority in aggregate principal amount of Registrable Notes covered by
         such Registration Statement or the managing underwriter or
         underwriters, if any.

                     (m)      Prior to the effective date of the first
         Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Notes, (i) provide
         the Trustee with printed certificates for the Registrable Notes or the
         Exchange Notes, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with
         The Depository Trust Company and (ii) provide a CUSIP number for the
         Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes, as the case may be.

                     (n)      In connection with an underwritten offering of
         Registrable Notes pursuant to a Shelf Registration, enter into an
         underwriting agreement as is customary in underwritten offerings of

         are reasonably requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in
         order to expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of
         such Registrable Notes and, in such connection, (i) make such
         representations and warranties to the underwriters, with respect to the
         business of the Issuers and their subsidiaries and the Registration
         Statement, Prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to
         be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, as are customarily
         made by issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings of debt
         securities similar to the Notes, and confirm the same in writing if and
         when requested; (ii) obtain the opinion of counsel to the Issuers and
         updates thereof in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
         managing underwriter or underwriters, addressed to the underwriters
         covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in
         underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes and such
         other matters as may be reasonably requested by managing underwriters;
         (iii) obtain "cold comfort" letters and updates thereof in form and
         substance reasonably satisfactory to the man-

         aging underwriter or underwriters from the independent certified public
         accountants of the Issuers (and, if necessary, any other independent
         certified public accountants of any subsidiary of any Issuer or of any
         business acquired by any Issuer for which financial statements and
         financial data are, or are required to be, included in the Registration
         Statement), addressed to each of the underwriters, such letters to be
         in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered
         in "cold comfort" letters in connection with underwritten offerings of
         debt securities similar to the Notes and such other matters as
         reasonably requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters; and
         (iv) if an underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall
         contain indemnification provisions and procedures no less favorable
         than those set forth in Section 7 hereof (or such other provisions and
         procedures acceptable to Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
         amount of Registrable Notes covered by such Registration Statement and
         the managing underwriter or underwriters or agents) with respect to all
         parties to be indemnified pursuant to said Section. The above shall be
         done at each closing under such underwriting agreement, or as and to
         the extent required thereunder.

                     (o)      If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to
         Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration
         Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under
         the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell
         Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, make available for
         inspection by any selling Holder of such Registrable Notes being sold,
         and each Participating Broker-Dealer, any underwriter participating in
         any such disposition of Registrable Notes, if any, and any attorney,
         accountant or other agent retained by any such selling Holder, each
         Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, or underwriter
         (collectively, the "Inspectors"), at the offices where normally kept,
         during reasonable business hours, all financial and other records,
         pertinent corporate documents and properties of each Issuer and its
         subsidiaries (collectively, the "Records") as shall be reasonably
         necessary to enable them to exercise any applicable due diligence
         responsibilities, and cause the officers, directors and employees of
         each Issuer and its subsidiaries to supply all information reasonably
         requested by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration
         Statement. Records which an Issuer determines, in good faith, to be
         confidential and any Records which it notifies the Inspectors are
         confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the
         disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a
         misstatement or omission in such Registration Statement, (ii) the
         release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other
         order from a court of competent jurisdiction, (iii) the information in
         such Records has been made generally available to the public other than
         as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by such Inspector
         or (iv) disclosure of such information is, in the opinion of counsel
         for any Inspector, necessary or advisable in connection with any
         action, claim, suit or proceeding, directly or indirectly, involving or
         potentially involving such Inspector and arising out of, based upon,
         related to, or involving this Agreement, or any transactions
         contemplated hereby or arising hereunder. Each selling Holder of such
         Registrable Notes and each Participating Broker-Dealer or other
         Inspector will be required

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

         to agree that information obtained by it as a result of such
         inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by it as
         the basis for any market transactions in the securities of any Issuer
         unless and until such is made generally available to the public. Each
         Inspector, each selling Holder of such Registrable Notes and each
         Participating Broker-Dealer will be required to further agree that it
         will, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a
         court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to clauses (ii) or (iv) of the
         previous sentence or otherwise, give notice to the Issuers and allow
         the Issuers to undertake appropriate action to obtain a protective
         order or otherwise prevent disclosure of the Records deemed
         confidential at its expense.

                     (p)      Provide an indenture trustee for the Registrable
         Notes or the Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and cause the
         Indenture or the trust indenture provided for in Section 2(a), as the
         case may be, to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective
         date of the Exchange Offer or the first Registration Statement relating
         to the Registrable Notes; and in connection therewith, cooperate with
         the trustee under any such indenture and the Holders of the Registrable
         Notes, to effect such changes to such indenture as may be required for
         such indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the
         TIA; and execute, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such
         trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such
         changes, and all other forms and documents required to be filed with
         the Commission to enable such indenture to be so qualified in a timely
         manner.

                     (q)      Comply with all applicable rules and regulations
         of the Commission and make generally available to its securityholders
         earnings statements satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
         Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated
         under the Securities Act) no later than 60 days after the end of any
         12-month period (or 120 days after the end of any 12-month period if
         such period is a fiscal year) (i) commencing at the end of any fiscal
         quarter in which Registrable Notes are sold to underwriters in a firm
         commitment or best efforts underwritten offering and (ii) if not sold
         to underwriters in such an offering, commencing on the first day of the
         first fiscal quarter of the Company after the effective date of a
         Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month
         periods.

                     (r)      Upon consummation of the Exchange Offer or a
         Private Exchange, obtain an opinion of counsel to the Issuers, in a
         form customary for underwritten transactions, addressed to the Trustee
         for the benefit of all Holders of Registrable Notes participating in
         the Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, that
         the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be,
         the Guarantee and the related indenture constitute legally valid and
         binding obligations of the Issuers, enforceable against the Issuers in
         accordance with their respective terms.

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

                     (s)      If the Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to
         be consummated, upon delivery of the Registrable Notes by Holders to
         the Issuers (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in
         exchange for the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the
         case may be, the Issuers shall mark, or cause to be marked, on such
         Registrable Notes that such Registrable Notes are being cancelled in
         exchange for the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the
         case may be; in no event shall such Registrable Notes be marked as paid
         or otherwise satisfied.

                     (t)      Cooperate with each seller of Registrable Notes
         covered by any Registration Statement and each underwriter, if any,
         participating in the disposition of such Registrable Notes and their
         respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made
         with the NASD.

                     (u)      Use its reasonable best efforts to take all other
         steps reasonably necessary to effect the registration of the
         Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement contemplated
         hereby.

                  The Issuers may require each seller of Registrable Notes as to
which any registration is being effected to furnish to the Issuers such
information regarding such seller and the distribution of such Registrable Notes
as the Issuers may, from time to time, reasonably request. The Issuers may
exclude from such registration the Registrable Notes of any seller who fails to
furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request.
Each seller as to which any Shelf Registration Statement is being effected
agrees to furnish promptly to the Issuers all information required to be
disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Issuers
by such seller not materially misleading.

                  Each Holder of Registrable Notes and each Participating
Broker-Dealer agrees by acquisition of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes
to be sold by such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, that, upon
receipt of any notice from the Issuers of the happening of any event of the kind
described in Section 5(c)(ii), 5(c)(iv), 5(c)(v), or 5(c)(vi), such Holder will
forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Notes covered by such
Registration Statement or Prospectus or Exchange Notes to be sold by such Holder
or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, and, in each case,
dissemination of such Prospectus until such Holder's or Participating
Broker-Dealer's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus
contemplated by Section 5(k), or until it is advised in writing (the "Advice")
by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and has
received copies of any amendments or supplements thereto. In the event the
Issuers shall give any such notice, each of the Effectiveness Period and the
Applicable Period shall be extended by the number of days during such periods
from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the
date when each seller of Registrable Notes covered by such Registration
Statement or Exchange Notes to be sold by such Participating Broker-Dealer, as
the

                                      -19-

case may be, shall have received (x) the copies of the supplemented or amended
Prospectus contemplated by Section 5(k) or (y) the Advice.

6.       Registration Expenses

                  All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or
compliance with this Agreement by the Issuers shall be borne by the Issuers
whether or not the Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration is filed or becomes

7.       Indemnification

                     (a)      The Issuers jointly and severally agree to
         indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Notes and each
         Participating Broker-Dealer, the officers, directors, employees and
         agents of each such Person, and each Person, if any, who controls any
         such Person within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange
         Act (each, a "Participant"), from and against any and all losses,
         claims, damages and liabilities, joint or several (including, without
         limitation, the reasonable legal fees and other reasonable expenses
         actually incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or
         any claim asserted) to which they or any of them may become subject
         under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state
         statutory law or regulation, or pursuant to Canadian securities laws,
         at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
         liabilities are caused by, arise out of or are based upon any untrue
         statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
         any Registration Statement or Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if
         the Issuers shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto)
         or are caused by, arise out of or are based upon any omission or
         alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
         therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of
         the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except
         insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by
         any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
         omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
         relating to any Participant furnished to the Issuers in writing by or
         on behalf of such Participant expressly for use therein; provided,
         however, that the Issuers shall not be liable if such untrue statement
         or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was contained or
         made in any preliminary prospectus and corrected in the Prospectus or
         any amendment or supplement thereto and the Prospectus does not contain
         any other untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
         omission of a material fact that was the subject matter of the related
         proceeding and any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense
         suffered or incurred by the Participants resulted from any action,
         claim or suit by any Person who purchased Registrable Notes or Exchange
         Notes which are the subject thereof from such Participant and it is
         established in the related proceeding that such Participant failed to
         deliver or provide a copy of the Prospectus (as amended or
         supplemented) to such Person with or prior to the confirmation of the
         sale of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes sold to such Person if
         required by applicable law, unless such failure to deliver or provide a
         copy of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) was a result of
         noncompliance by the Issuers with Section 5 of this Agreement.

                     (b)      Each Participant will be required to agree,
         severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless each Issuer,
         its directors and officers and each Person who controls each Issuer
         within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the
         same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuers to each
         Participant, but only with

                                      -21-

<PAGE>

         reference to information relating to such Participant furnished to the
         Issuers in writing by such Participant expressly for use in any
         Registration Statement or Prospectus, any amendment or supplement
         thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. The liability of any
         Participant under this paragraph shall in no event exceed the proceeds
         received by such Participant from sales of Registrable Notes or
         Exchange Notes giving rise to such obligations.

                     (c)      If any suit, action, proceeding (including any
         governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be
         brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnity
         may be sought pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such
         Person (the "Indemnified Person") shall promptly notify the Person
         against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "Indemnifying Person")
         in writing, and the Indemnifying Person, upon request of the
         Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
         Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others
         the Indemnifying Person may reasonably designate in such proceeding and
         shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses actually incurred by such
         counsel related to such proceeding; provided, however, that the failure
         to so notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it of any
         obligation or liability which it may have hereunder or otherwise. In
         any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to
         retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall
         be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the
         Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually
         agreed in writing to the contrary, (ii) the Indemnifying Person has
         failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably
         satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or (iii) the named parties in
         any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the
         Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and the Indemnified
         Person shall have reasonably concluded that (x) there may be one or
         more legal defenses available to it and/or (y) other Indemnified
         Persons and such Indemnifying Person such that joint representation
         would not be appropriate and/or (z) the use of counsel chosen by the
         Indemnifying Person to represent the Indemnified Person would present
         such counsel with a conflict of interest causing the representation to
         be inappropriate under applicable professional standards. It is
         understood that, unless there is a conflict among Indemnified Persons,
         the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or
         related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and
         expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local
         counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and
         expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate
         firm for the Participants and such control Persons of Participants
         shall be designated in writing by Participants who sold a majority in
         interest of Registrable Notes sold by all such Participants and any
         such separate firm for the Issuers, their respective directors,
         officers and such control Persons of the Issuers shall be designated in
         writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for
         any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent,
         but if settled with such consent or if there is a final non-appealable
         judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify
         any Indemnified Person from

                                      -22-

<PAGE>

         and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or
         judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an
         Indemnified Person shall have requested an Indemnifying Person to
         reimburse the Indemnified Person for reasonable fees and expenses
         actually incurred by counsel as contemplated by the third sentence of
         this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person agrees that it shall be liable
         for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its consent if
         (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by
         such Indemnifying Person of the aforesaid request and (ii) such
         Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in
         accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement;
         provided, however, that the Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for
         any settlement effected without its consent pursuant to this sentence
         if the Indemnifying Person is contesting, in good faith, the request
         for reimbursement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior
         written consent of the Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be
         unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or
         threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or
         could have been a party or indemnity could have been sought hereunder
         by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (A) includes an
         unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance
         satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims
         that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include
         any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to
         act by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person.

                     (d)      If the indemnification provided for in the first
         and second paragraphs of this Section 7 is unavailable to, or
         insufficient to hold harmless, an Indemnified Person in respect of any
         losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each
         Indemnifying Person under such paragraphs, in lieu of indemnifying such
         Indemnified Person thereunder and in order to provide for just and
         equitable contribution, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable
         by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages
         or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
         relative fault of the Indemnifying Person or Persons on the one hand
         and the Indemnified Person or Persons on the other in connection with
         the statements or omissions (or alleged statements or omissions) that
         resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
         respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable
         considerations. The relative fault of the parties 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 Issuers
         on the one hand or by the Participants or such other Indemnified
         Person, as the case may be, on the other, the parties' relative intent,
         knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
         such statement or omission and any other equitable considerations
         appropriate under the circumstances.

                     (e)      The parties agree that it would not be just and
         equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by
         pro rata allocation (even if the Participants

                                      -23-

<PAGE>

         were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of
         allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations
         referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or
         payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims,
         damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding
         paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
         forth above, any reasonable legal or other expenses actually incurred
         by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or
         defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of
         this Section 7, in no event shall a Participant be required to
         contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which proceeds
         received by such Participant from sales of Registrable Notes or
         Exchange Notes, as the case may be, exceeds the amount of any damages
         that such Participant has otherwise been required to pay by reason of
         such 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.

                     (f)      The indemnity and contribution agreements
         contained in this Section 7 will be in addition to any liability which
         the Indemnifying Persons may otherwise have to the Indemnified Persons
         referred to above.

8.       Rules 144 and 144A

                  Each of the Issuers covenants that it will file the reports,
if any, required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder in a timely
manner and, if at any time it is not required to file such reports, it will,
upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Notes, make publicly available
other information so long as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 and
Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Each of the Issuers further covenants, for
so long as any Registrable Notes remain outstanding, to make available to any
Holder or beneficial owner of Registrable Notes in connection with any sale
thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Registrable Notes from such Holder
or beneficial owner, the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the
Securities Act in order to permit resales of such Registrable Notes pursuant to
Rule 144A.

9.       Underwritten Registrations

                  If any of the Registrable Notes covered by any Shelf
Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker
or investment bankers and manager or managers that will manage the offering will
be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such
Registrable Notes included in such offering and reasonably acceptable to the
Issuers.

                                      -24-

<PAGE>

                  No Holder of Registrable Notes may participate in any
underwritten registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such
Holder's Registrable Notes on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required
under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

10.      Miscellaneous

                     (a)      Remedies. In the event of a breach by any Issuer
         of any of its obligations under this Agreement, each Holder of
         Registrable Notes and each Participating Broker-Dealer holding Exchange
         Notes, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided
         herein, in the Indenture or, in the case of an Initial Purchaser, in
         the Purchase Agreement, or granted by law, including recovery of
         damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under
         this Agreement. Each Issuer agrees that monetary damages would not be
         adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it
         of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees
         that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of
         such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be
         adequate.

                     (b)      No Inconsistent Agreements. None of the Issuers
         has entered, as of the date hereof, and none of the Issuers shall
         enter, after the date of this Agreement, into any agreement with
         respect to any of its securities that is inconsistent with the rights
         granted to the Holders of Registrable Notes in this Agreement or
         otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. None of the Issuers has
         entered and none of the issuers shall enter into any agreement with
         respect to any of its securities which will grant to any Person
         piggy-back rights with respect to a Registration Statement.

                     (c)      Adjustments Affecting Registrable Notes. None of
         the Issuers shall, directly or indirectly, take any action with respect
         to the Registrable Notes as a class that would adversely affect the
         ability of the Holders of Registrable Notes to include such Registrable
         Notes in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

                     (d)      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,
         otherwise than with the prior written consent of (A) the Holders of not
         less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
         outstanding Registrable Notes and (B) in circumstances that would
         adversely affect Participating Broker-Dealers, the Participating
         Broker-Dealers holding not less than a majority in aggregate principal
         amount of the Exchange Notes held by all Participating Broker-Dealers;
         provided, however, that Section 7 and this Section 10(d) may not be
         amended, modified or supplemented without the prior written consent of
         each Holder and each Par-

         ticipating Broker-Dealer (including any person who was a Holder or
         Participating Broker-Dealer of Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes, as
         the case may be, disposed of pursuant to any Registration Statement).
         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 of Registrable Notes whose securities are being
         tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer or sold pursuant to a
         Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect,
         impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Registrable
         Notes may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate
         principal amount of the Registrable Notes being tendered or being sold
         by such Holders pursuant to such Registration Statement.

                     (i)      Governing Law. THE VALIDITY AND INTERPRETATION OF

         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

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

                     (l)      Third Party Beneficiaries. Holders of Registrable
         Notes and Participating Broker-Dealers are intended third party
         beneficiaries of this Agreement and this Agreement may be enforced by
         such Persons.

                     (m)      Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with
         the Purchase Agreement and the Indenture, is intended by the parties as
         a final and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of
         the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein
         and therein and any and all prior oral or written agreements,
         representations, or warranties, contracts, understandings,
         correspondence, conversations and memoranda among the Initial
         Purchasers on the one hand and the Issuers on the other, or between or
         among any agents, representatives, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates,
         predecessors in interest or successors in interest with respect to the
         subject matter hereof and thereof are merged herein and replaced
         hereby.

                     (n)      Agent for Service; Submission to Jurisdiction;
         Waiver of Immunities. By the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
         each of the Issuers (i) acknowledges that it has, by separate written
         instrument, designated and appointed CanWest International
         Corp.("CWIC") (and any successor entity) as its authorized agent upon
         which process may be served in any suit or proceeding arising out of or
         relating to this Agreement that may be instituted in any federal or
         state court in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, State of New
         York or brought under federal or state securities laws, and
         acknowledges that CWIC has accepted such designation, (ii) submits to
         the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit or proceeding and
         (iii) agrees that service of process upon CWIC and written notice of
         said service to such Issuers in accordance with Section 10(e) shall be
         deemed in effective service of process upon such Issuers in any such
         suit or proceeding. Each of the Issuers further agrees to take any
         reasonable action, including the execution and filing of any and all
         such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to continue such
         designation and appointment of CWIC in full force and effect so long as
         any of the Notes shall be outstanding; provided that the Issuers may,
         by written notice to the Initial Purchasers, designate such additional
         or alternative agent for service of process under this Section 10(n)
         that (i) maintains an office located in the Borough of Manhattan, City
         of New York, State of New York and (ii) is either (x) counsel for the
         Issuers or (y) a corporate service company which acts as agent for
         service of process for other persons in the ordinary course of its
         business. Such written notice shall identify the name of such agent for
         service of process and the address of the office of such agent for
         service of process in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, State
         of New York.

                     (o)      Judgment Currency. The Issuers shall, jointly and
         severally, indemnify each Purchaser, each Participating Broker-Dealer,
         each underwriter who participates in an offering of Registrable Notes,

         agents against any loss incurred by such party as a result of any
         judgment or order being given or made in favor of such party for any
         amount due under this Agreement and such judgment or order being
