                        WHEREAS, Section 4.16 of the Senior Subordinated Indenture provides that under certain
circumstances the New Guarantor shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the New Guarantor shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuers’ Obligations under the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Senior Subordinated

                               Company means a person that directly, or
                               indirectly through one or more intermediaries,

                                    is not the beneficial owner, directly or
                                    indirectly, of more than 10% of any class of

                  Designation or identification of a person as an Audit
                  Committee Financial Expert under this charter does not impose
                  on that person any duties, obligations or liability that are
                  greater than the duties, obligations, and liability imposed on
                  another person as a member of the Audit Committee and the
                  Board in the absence of that designation or identification.

                           individual having a relationship, which, in the
                           opinion of the company's board of directors, would
                           interfere with the exercise of independent judgment
                           in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

                           Company, in any single year, amounts exceeding the
                           greater of $200,000 or 5% of the recipient company's
                           consolidated gross revenues (or having a family
                           member that makes or receives such payments). The
                           requirement excludes payments from investments in the
                           Company's securities and payments under
                           non-discretionary charitable contribution matching
                           programs.

              o   Removal and Replacement - An Audit Committee member may be
                  removed or replaced by, and any vacancies on the committee may
                  be filled by, the Board, taking into account recommendations
                  of the committee.

                              Operating Principles

         The Audit Committee shall fulfill its responsibilities within the
context of the following overriding principles:

              o   Meetings - The Chair of the Audit Committee, in consultation
                  with committee members, shall determine the frequency and
                  schedule of committee meetings, provided the committee will
                  meet at least two times per year. The Audit Committee meetings
                  and matters relating to them are subject to the provisions of
                  the Company's Bylaws ("Bylaws"). The Audit Committee may ask
                  members of management or others whose advice and counsel are
                  relevant to the issues then being considered by the committee
                  to attend any meetings and to provide such information as the
                  committee may request.

              o   Agenda - The Chair of the Audit Committee shall develop the
                  committee's agenda, in consultation with other committee
                  members. Each member of the Board and members of management
                  are free to suggest the inclusion of items on the agenda. The
                  agenda and information concerning the business which shall be
                  conducted at each Audit Committee meeting shall, to the extent
                  practicable, be distributed to committee members sufficiently
                  in advance of each meeting to permit meaningful review.

              o   Quorum - A majority of the authorized number of Audit
                  Committee members, regardless of possible vacancies, shall
                  constitute a quorum. The Audit Committee may act by a majority
                  of the members present at a meeting of the committee at which
                  at least a quorum is present.

              o   Delegation - The Chair of the Committee may, through the
                  Committee by resolution, delegate authority to act on behalf
                  of the Chair. The Committee may, by resolution, delegate
                  authority to subcommittees or individual members of the
                  Committee as it deems appropriate.

              o   Communications - The chair and others on the Audit Committee
                  shall, to the extent appropriate, have contact throughout the
                  year with senior management, other committee chairs, other key
                  committee advisors, the External Auditor, etc., as applicable,
                  to strengthen the committee's knowledge of relevant current
                  and prospective business issues.

              o   Committee Education and Orientation - The Audit Committee,
                  with management, shall develop and participate in a process
                  for review of important financial and operating topics that
                  present potential significant risk to the Company.
                  Additionally, individual Audit Committee members are
                  encouraged to participate in relevant and appropriate
                  self-study education to assure understanding of the business
                  and environment in which the Company operates.

              o   Committee Meeting Attendees - The Audit Committee shall
                  request members of management, counsel, and the External
                  Auditor, as applicable, to participate in committee meetings,
                  as necessary to carry out committee responsibilities. The
                  External Auditor or counsel may, at any time, request a
                  meeting with the Audit Committee or its chair, with or without
                  management in attendance. In any case, the Audit Committee
                  shall meet separately with the External Auditor, at least
                  annually.

              o   Reporting to the Board of Directors - The Audit Committee,
                  through the committee chair, shall report periodically, as
                  deemed necessary, but at least annually, to the full Board. In
                  addition, summarized minutes from Audit Committee meetings
                  shall be available to each Board member at least one week
                  prior to the subsequent meeting of the Board.

              o   Committee Expectations and Informational Needs - The Audit
                  Committee shall communicate its expectations and the nature,
                  timing, and extent of its informational needs to management,
                  and external parties, including the External Auditor. Written
                  materials, including key performance indicators and measures
                  related to key business and financial risks, if not previously
                  distributed to the full Board, shall be received from
                  management, auditors, and others at least one week in advance
                  of meeting dates.

              o   Authority to Hire Legal Counsel and Others - The Audit
                  Committee shall have authority to engage an administrative
                  staff and outside advisors in such areas as law, accounting,
                  internal control, and information systems, and other advisors
                  necessary to carry out the committee's duties.

              o   Funding - The Company shall adequately fund the budget of the
                  Audit Committee, including funding to cover paying the
                  External Auditor for services in connection with preparing or
                  issuing audit reports, performing other audit functions,
                  reviewing and attesting services and providing other services
                  to the Company, paying Audit Committee member salaries or
                  fees, if any, paying committee staff and advisors, if any, and
                  paying ordinary administrative expenses of the committee.

                       Relationship with External Auditor

         The following apply in the relationship between the Audit Committee and
the External Auditor:

              o   External Auditor Responsible To Audit Committee and Board -
                  The External Auditor, in its capacity as an independent public
                  accountant, shall be responsible to the Audit Committee and
                  the Board as representatives of the shareholders.

                                     Page 7
<PAGE>
              o   Audit Committee Oversight - In executing its oversight of the
                  External Auditor, the Audit Committee shall review the work of
                  the External Auditor. The External Auditor shall review
                  Company financial reports and shall report to the Audit
                  Committee. The External Auditor shall report all relevant
                  issues to the Audit Committee responsive to agreed-upon
                  committee expectations.

              o   Annual Performance Review - The Audit Committee shall annually
                  review the performance (effectiveness, objectivity, and
                  independence) of the External Auditor. The Audit Committee
                  shall obtain a formal written statement from the External
                  Auditor delineating all relationships between the External
                  Auditor and the Company consistent with standards set by the
                  Independence Standards Board. Additionally, the Audit
                  Committee shall discuss with the External Auditor
                  relationships or services that may affect auditor objectivity
                  and independence. In the event the Audit Committee shall not
                  be satisfied with the External Auditor's assurances of
                  independence, the committee shall take, or recommend to the
                  full Board, appropriate action which shall ensure the
                  independence of the External Auditor.

              o   Significant Issues Not Adequately Addressed - If the External
                  Auditor identifies significant issues relative to the overall
                  Board responsibility that have been communicated to management
                  but, in the External Auditor's judgment, have not been
                  adequately addressed, the External Auditor should communicate
                  these issues to the chair of the Audit Committee.

                            Primary Responsibilities

         The Audit Committee shall have primary responsibility for the
following:

              o   Oversight - Exercising oversight of External Auditor and of

Exercising Oversight of External Auditors, Internal Audit

         The Audit Committee is directly responsible for appointment,
compensation, retention, oversight, qualifications and independence of the
External Auditor. All audit services provided by the External Auditor must be
preapproved by the Audit Committee. To the extent the Company shall have, at any
time, an internal audit operation, the Audit Committee shall assist in the Board
oversight of the performance of that operation. The relationship between the
External Auditor and the Audit Committee is further described under
"Relationship with External Auditor."

Addressing Non-Audit Services

         All Non-Audit Services, including tax services but excluding those
prohibited by federal securities law, must be pre-approved by the Audit
Committee, subject to the following:

              o   Limitations on Approval - A Non-Audit Service may be approved
                  by the Audit Committee only if it does not compromise
                  independence of the External Auditor.

              o   Audit Committee Judgment - The Audit Committee must use its
                  judgment to decide whether a service can be performed by the
                  External Auditor without impairing, either in fact or in
                  appearance, the independence of the External Auditor and
                  subject to the following -

                  o   Starting Point - The starting point for rendering a
                      determination whether independence may be impaired shall
                      be the following three principles -

                           o   An auditor cannot function in the role of
                               management.

                           o   An auditor cannot audit the auditor's own work.

                           o   An auditor cannot serve in an advocacy role for
                               the auditor's client.

                  o   Factors To Consider - When approving Non-Audit Services,
                      the following factors shall be considered -

                           o   Whether the service is being performed
                               principally for the Audit Committee.

                           o   The effects of the service, if any, on audit
                               effectiveness or on the quality and timeliness of
                               the Company's financial reporting process.

                           o   Whether the service would be performed by
                               specialists, e.g., technology specialists, who
                               ordinarily also provide recurring audit support.

                           o   Whether the service would be performed by audit
                               personnel and, if so, whether it will enhance
                               their knowledge of the entity's business and
                               operations.

                           o   Whether the role of those performing the service,
                               e.g., a role where neutrality, impartiality, and
                               auditor skepticism are likely to be subverted,
                               would be inconsistent with the auditor's role.

                           o   Whether the audit firm's personnel would be
                               assuming a management role or creating a
                               mutuality of interest with management.

                                     Page 9
<PAGE>
                           o   Whether the auditors, in effect, would be
                               "auditing their own numbers."

                           o   Whether the project must be started and completed
                               very quickly.

                           o   Whether the audit firm has unique expertise in
                               the service.

                           o   The size of the fee for the service.

              o   Optional Approval Procedures - The Audit Committee has the
                  following options for approving Non-Audit Services -

                  o   Full Audit Committee - The full Audit Committee can
                      consider each Non-Audit Service.

                  o   Designee - The Audit Committee can designate one of its
                      members to approve a Non-Audit Service, with that member
                      reporting approvals to the full committee.

                  o   Pre-Approval of Categories - The Audit Committee can
                      pre-approve categories of Non-Audit Services. Should this
                      option be chosen, the categories must be specific enough
                      to ensure that -

                           o   The Audit Committee knows exactly what it is
                               approving and can determine the effect of such
                               approval on auditor independence.

                           o   Management will not find it necessary to decide
                               whether a specific service falls within a
                               category of pre-approved Non-Audit Service.

              o   Prohibited Services - The nine services specifically
                  prohibited by federal securities law are as follows -

                      systems design and implementation.

                      services, opinions, or contribution-in-kind reports.

                  o   Actuarial Services - Actuarial reports.

                      unrelated to the audit.

                  o   Other Services - Any other service that the federally

<PAGE>
              o   Limited Waiver - The pre-approval requirement as applied to a
                  Non-Audit Service may be waived for the Company should all of
                  the following be satisfied -

                  o   Limit on Aggregate Amount - The aggregate amount of all
                      Non-Audit Services constitutes not more than 5% of the
                      total amount of revenues paid by the Company to the
                      External Auditor during the fiscal year in which the
                      Non-Audit Services are provided.

                  o   Original Intent - The service is originally thought to be
                      a part of an audit by the External Auditor.

                  o   Resulting Service - The service turns out to be a

                      Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee
                      who are members of the Board to whom authority to grant
                      such approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee.

              o   Disclosure to Shareholders - Approval by the Audit Committee
                  of Non-Audit Services shall be disclosed to Company investors

                               of the Complaint, seek to process it in a timely
                               manner.

                           o   The investigator shall be informed of the receipt
                               of Complaints at least on a weekly basis. In the
                               event the Complaint shall be directed to a
                               committee, the chair of the committee shall be
                               informed of the receipt of the Complaint within
                               not more than two business days.

                           o   A Complaint pertaining to one or more executive
                               officers or Directors must receive especially
                               timely review by the corresponding investigator.

                           o   Each investigator will decide, upon initial
                               review of a Complaint, whether a formal
                               investigation shall be initiated and the extent
                               of it, including who shall carry out the
                               investigation, and the resources which shall be
                               deemed necessary to carry it out.

                           o   All signed Complaints will be acknowledged as
                               received by the investigator. In the event the
                               signed Complaint shall be directed to a
                               committee, the chair of the committee, or the
                               chair's designee shall acknowledge receipt of the
                               Complaint.

                           o   In the event the investigator shall conclude a
                               Complaint as not one subject to the scope of the
                               investigator's responsibilities under a committee
                               charter or otherwise but as one raising
                               legitimate issues, the

                                    Page 15
<PAGE>
                               investigator shall forward the matter to the
                               Chief Financial Officer for direct action or
                               referral to the appropriate person for review and
                               action.

                  o   Annual Status Report - The Audit Committee, the Nominating
                      and Corporate Governance Committee, and the Chief
                      Financial Officer as investigators of Complaints, will at
                      least annually each provide reports to the Board on the
                      status of Complaints received during the year, including,
                      but not limited to, a brief description of each, the
                      status of each, and recommended action, if any, on each by
                      the Board (affirmative relief or closure of a file on a
                      Complaint for which the investigator has not received
                      additional requested information from the complainant
                      within a reasonable time which the investigator deems
                      necessary to make a determination in the matter).

                  o   Retention of Closed File - A Complaint file, once closed,
                      will be retained for a time period of 10 years and in
                      accordance with the Company's appropriate records
                      retention policy, after which it will be destroyed. Unless
                      specifically provided otherwise in that policy, the Chief
                      Financial Officer or the officer's designee is the
                      custodian of a closed Complaint file.

                  o   Confidential Treatment - An investigator will be
                      particularly sensitive to the confidential nature of
                      Complaints, especially ones where the complainant has made
                      the Complaint through a confidential or anonymous
                      submission. Complaint files will not be available
                      generally to Employees except with the permission of the
                      investigator and only in accordance with the Company's
                      policy on confidential records, if any, pertaining to the
                      subject matter of the Complaint.

                  o   Committee Review - In the event the investigator shall be
                      the Audit Committee or the Nominating and Corporate
                      Governance Committee, a Complaint shall be reviewed
                      initially by the chair, or the chair's designee, and an
                      initial analysis submitted to the committee. Any formal
                      action taken by the committee on the Complaint must be at
                      a duly scheduled meeting at which at least a quorum of its
                      members is present, and a determination on the Complaint
                      must be by vote of at least a majority of the committee
                      present, subject further to the procedural requirements of
                      the Bylaws.

                  o   Other Procedures - The Audit Committee shall adopt such
                      other procedures, subject to prior Board approval, as may
                      be necessary to carry out the committee's responsibilities
                      in addressing Complaints, Auditor Disagreements, and other
                      matters addressed in this section.

              o   Other Complaint-Related Matters - The Audit Committee shall
                  address other Complaint-related matters as designated by the
                  Board.

              o   Disagreements - The Audit Committee, when it shall receive
                  notice of, or when the committee independently shall become
                  aware of, an Auditor Disagreement, i.e., a disagreement
                  between Company management and the External Auditor regarding
                  financial reporting, shall, in accordance with this charter,
                  review and resolve the Auditor Disagreement.

                  o   Timely Review - In this context, the Audit Committee shall
                      review the Auditor Disagreement in a timely fashion and
                      provide a written determination with supporting argument
                      for it, and the determination of the Audit Committee
                      regarding the Auditor Disagreement shall be final.

Addressing Attorney Reports

         The Audit Committee shall address an Attorney Report, i.e., a report of
evidence of a securities violation or other infraction involving the Company
subject to the following:

              o   Report Required - An attorney retained by, or otherwise
                  employed by, the Company and appearing and practicing before
                  the SEC on behalf of the Company who becomes aware of evidence
                  of a suspected material violation of securities law
                  ("Reporting Attorney") is required to submit an Attorney
                  Report to the Company's Senior Vice President-Regulatory
                  Affairs ("Chief Legal Counsel"), or if the matter relates to
                  the Chief Legal Counsel, to the Company's Chief Executive
                  Officer ("Chief Executive Officer") for appropriate response
                  (collectively, the Chief Legal Counsel or the Chief Executive
                  Officer, "recipient") and subject to the following -

                  o   Appearing and Practicing - An attorney is deemed to be
                      "appearing and practicing before the SEC" in the
                      representation of the Company, and therefore subject to
                      the provisions of this section on Attorney Reports, if the
                      attorney performs specific services (representing the
                      Company before the SEC, transacting business with the SEC
                      including communications in any form filed with the SEC,
                      or advising the Company on a filing with the SEC), but
                      only if the attorney provides those services in an
                      attorney-client capacity.

                  o   Material Violation - A "material violation" includes a
                      material violation of federal or state securities law, a
                      material breach of fiduciary duty arising under federal or
                      state law, or a similar violation of any federal or state
                      law by an officer, director, employee or agent of the
                      Company.

                  o   Content - The Attorney Report must contain details of the
                      suspected material violation and the relevant evidence
                      regarding the material violation.

              o   Appropriate Response - The recipient of the Attorney Report
                  must inquire into evidence contained in the report, and,
                  unless the recipient reasonably believes no material violation
                  has occurred, is ongoing, or is about to occur, the recipient
                  must take steps to initiate an appropriate response, i.e.,
                  take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to adopt an
                  appropriate response and subject further to the following -

                  o   Referral To Audit Committee - The recipient may choose not
                      to make a determination on the matter or refer the
                      Attorney Report to the Audit Committee, in which case the
                      committee is responsible to inquire into the evidence and,
                      if necessary, formulate an appropriate response.

                  o   Notice To Reporting Attorney - The recipient must within a
                      reasonable time advise the Reporting Attorney as to what
                      the recipient has done regarding the report.

                  o   Receipt of Appropriate Response - Should the Reporting
                      Attorney receive what that attorney believes to be an
                      appropriate response within a reasonable time, the
                      responsibility of that attorney as to the Attorney Report
                      is complete.

                  o   No Appropriate Response - Should the Reporting Attorney
                      not receive an appropriate response within a reasonable
                      time, that attorney must report the

                                     Page 17
<PAGE>
                      evidence directly to the Audit Committee. Once that report
                      is made to that committee, the responsibility of the
                      Reporting Attorney is complete.

                  o   Specific Meaning - The "appropriate response" requirement
                      is met if, after receiving a response, the Reporting
                      Attorney reasonably believes that no material violation
                      occurred, is ongoing, or is about to occur, the Company
                      has adopted appropriate preventative or remedial measures,
                      or the matter has been referred to an attorney with the
                      consent of the Board, the Audit Committee, or the Chief
                      Legal Officer, who has investigated the evidence and the
                      Company has implemented any remedial recommendations made
                      by the attorney, or the Company has been advised by that
                      attorney that the attorney may assert a colorable defense
                      with regard to the evidence of a material violation.

              o   Other Procedures - The Audit Committee shall adopt such other
                  procedures, subject to prior Board approval, as may be
                  necessary to carry out the committee's responsibilities in
                  addressing Attorney Reports.
