Dear Ralph:                                 TEL. 212.551.3650 FAX 212.551.1781

Each of us has been more pleased with the contributions which you have made
to First Marblehead since you joined the firm in the Fall of 1996. In partial
recognition, we would be pleased to take the following action.

As you know, we have recently purchased 31,788 additional shares of FMC
common stock (the Stock) at $20. per share. Robert James advanced the
$635,760 necessary to do so, in partnership with us. Our arrangement with Bob
is that, upon the sale of the Stock, he will be entitled to the sale proceeds
up to a sale price of $30 per share. The balance of the sale proceeds, if
any, will be divided 50% to Bob and 50% to one of us. Our agreement with Bob
contemplates that we may assign all or part of our interest to a third party.

By this letter, we are confirming to you that each of us is assigning one
half of our remaining interest in the upside value of the Stock to you. As an
example, if the Stock were sold for $40 per share, Bob would be entitled to
the first $30 plus 50% of the balance, or a total of $35. The remaining $5
would be split, $2.50 to you and $2.50 to one of us.

We look forward with great confidence to a productive business future and to
your ongoing partnership with us.

Respectfully,

/s/ Stephen Anbinder

(Back of Note)
 11% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 

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

        1.    Interest.    The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 11% per
annum from the date of original issuance until maturity and shall pay Additional Interest pursuant to Section 4 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below. The Company will pay
interest and Additional Interest semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each
an "Interest Payment Date"). Interest on the Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been
paid, from the date of issuance; provided that the first interest payment shall be a special interest payment consisting of accrued interest from the
date of original issuance through the date immediately preceding the first Interest Payment Date, and shall be paid only to a Holder of record at the close of business on the date of original
issuance; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be August 15, 2003. The Company shall pay interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue payments of the principal, Purchase Price and Redemption Price of this Note from time to time on demand at a
rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments
of interest and Additional Interest, if any, (without regard to any applicable grace periods) hereon from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

        2.    Method of Payment.    The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) and Additional
Interest, if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the February 1 and August 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date (except as set forth
in paragraph 1 above), even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with
respect to defaulted interest. Any such installment of interest or Additional Interest, if any, not punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holders
on such Interest Payment Date, and may be paid to the registered Holders at the close of business on a special interest payment date to be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted
interest, notice whereof shall be given to the registered Holders not less than ten days prior to such special interest payment date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. The Notes will be payable as to principal,
Redemption Price, Purchase Price, interest and Additional Interest, if any, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at
the option of the Company, payment of interest and Additional Interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders;  provided that payment by wire
transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal, Redemption Price and Purchase Price
of, and interest and Additional Interest (if any) on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Trustee or the Paying Agent. Such
payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

        3.    Paying Agent and Registrar.    Initially, The Bank of New York, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as
Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company may act in any such capacity. 

A-4

 

        4.    Indenture and Guarantees.    The Company issued $300 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
under an Indenture dated as of February 7, 2003 (the "Indenture") between the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee and $50 million in
aggregate principal amount of Notes under the Indenture as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of August 5, 2003 (the "First Supplemental
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, as amended (15
U.S.C. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms.
The Notes are general obligations of the Company. 

        5.    Optional Redemption.    The Company may redeem any or all of the Notes at any time on or after
February 15, 2008, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior notice in amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof at the Redemption Prices (expressed as a percentage of
the principal amount) set forth below, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning February 15 of the years indicated below: 

	Year
 
	 	Redemption Price
	 
	2008	 	105.500	%
	2009	 	103.667	%
	2010	 	101.833	%
	2011 and thereafter	 	100.000	%

in
each case together with accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed. 

        If
less than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select the particular Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed by lot, pro
rata or by any other method the Trustee shall deem fair and reasonable. 

        6.    Special Redemption.    In the event the Company completes one or more Public Equity Offerings on or before
February 15, 2006, the Company, at its option, may use the net cash proceeds from any such Public Equity Offering to redeem up to 35% of the original principal amount of the Notes (a
"Special Redemption") at a Redemption Price of 111% of the principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest (if any),
to the date of redemption; provided, however, that at least 65% of the original principal amount of the Notes will remain outstanding immediately after
any such redemption; and provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 90 days after the date of the closing of any such Public
Equity Offering. If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select the particular Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed either: (1) in compliance with the requirements
of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed; or (2) by lot, only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a  pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to DTC procedures). 

        7.    Mandatory Redemption.    Except as set forth in Paragraph 9 below with respect to repurchases of Notes in
certain events, the Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes. 

        8.    Notice of Redemption.    Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, a notice of redemption will be mailed at
least 30 days but not more than 60 days (or 45 days in the case of mandatory redemption) before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered
address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the
redemption date interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Company has deposited with the Paying Agent funds in satisfaction of the applicable
redemption price. 

A-5

 

        9.    Repurchase at Option of Holder.    

        (a)   If
there is a Change of Control, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a "Change of Control Offer") to
repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a Purchase Price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof  plus accrued and unpaid interest and
Additional Interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the
Indenture. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall send by first-class mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer
as required by the Indenture. 

        (b)   On
the 361st day after an Asset Sale (the "Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date"), such aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds
which have not been applied on or before such Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date as permitted in clauses (3)(A), (3)(B) and (3)(C) of paragraph (a) of Section 4.10 of the Indenture (each, a
"Net Proceeds Offer Amount") shall be applied by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to make an offer to purchase (the
"Net Proceeds Offer"), on a date (the "Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date") not less than 30 nor more than
45 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, from all Holders on a pro rata basis, that amount of Notes equal to the Net
Proceeds Offer Amount at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase. Each Net Proceeds Offer
will be mailed to the record Holders as shown on the register of Holders within 25 days following the Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, with a copy to the Trustee, and shall comply with the
procedures set forth in the Indenture. Upon receiving notice of the Net Proceeds Offer, Holders may elect to tender their Notes in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000 in exchange for
cash. To the extent Holders properly tender Notes in an amount exceeding the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, the tendered Notes will be purchased on a pro
rata basis based on the aggregate amounts of Notes tendered (and the Trustee shall select the tendered Notes of tendering Holders on a pro
rata basis based on the amount of Notes tendered). A Net Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 business days or such longer period as may be required by law. The
Company may defer the Net Proceeds Offer until there is an aggregate unutilized Net Proceeds Offer Amount equal to or in excess of $10 million resulting from one or more Asset Sales (at which
time, the entire unutilized Net Proceeds Offer Amount, and not just the amount in excess of $10 million, shall be applied as required above). 

        (c)   Any
Net Loss Proceeds from an Event of Loss with respect to Collateral that are not applied or invested as provided in the first sentence of paragraph (a) of
Section 4.19 of the Indenture prior to the 361st day after the Event of Loss (the "Loss Proceeds Offer Trigger Date") will be deemed to
constitute "Excess Loss Proceeds." When the aggregate amount of Excess Loss Proceeds exceeds $5.0 million, the Company will make an offer to
purchase (a "Loss Proceeds Offer") on a date (the "Loss Proceeds Offer Payment Date") not less than 30
nor more than 45 days following the applicable Loss Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, from all Holders on a pro rata basis, that amount of Notes equal to the Loss Proceeds Offer Amount at an offer
price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of
record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date in accordance with the procedures set forth herein). If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders
exceeds the Excess Loss Proceeds to be used to purchase Notes, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis. To the extent
that the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant to a Loss Proceeds Offer is less than the Loss Proceeds Offer Amount, the Company may apply any remaining Net Loss Proceeds to any purpose
consistent with the Indenture and, following the consummation of each Loss Proceeds Offer, the Loss Proceeds Offer Amount shall be reset to zero. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
foregoing, the Company may commence a Loss Proceeds Offer prior to the expiration of 360 days after the occurrence of an Event of Loss.

        10.    Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.    The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among
other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need
not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, it need not exchange or
register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 

        11.    Persons Deemed Owners.    The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

        12.    Amendment, Supplement and Waiver.    Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture and the Notes may be amended
or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or
the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture and the Notes may be
amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption of the
Company's obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or
that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, or to comply with the requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the
Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act. 

        13.    Defaults and Remedies.    Events of Default include: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when
due of interest or Additional Interest, on the Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of stated principal, Redemption Price or Purchase Price of the Notes when the same becomes due and payable
at maturity, upon redemption, repurchase or otherwise (including the failure to make a payment to purchase Notes tendered pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or a Net Proceeds Offer);
(iii) failure by the Company to comply with any covenant contained in the Indenture for 45 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes outstanding; (iv) default under certain other agreements relating to Indebtedness of the Company which default (a) is caused by a failure to pay any amount
due at the stated maturity thereof or (b) results in the acceleration (which acceleration is not rescinded, annulled or otherwise cured within 20 days of receipt of notice of any such
acceleration) of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity and, in each case, the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under
which there has been a default for failure to pay principal at final stated maturity or the maturity of which has been so accelerated (in each case with respect to which the 20-day period
described above has elapsed), aggregates $15.0 million or more; (v) certain final judgments for the payment of money that remain undischarged for a period of 60 days,  provided that the
aggregate of all such undischarged judgments exceeds $15.0 million; and (vi) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
with respect to the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the entire principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if
any, on the Notes shall become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding
Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain 

A-7

 

limitations,
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes
notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to payment on any Note) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may waive any existing or past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal
of, or interest on any Notes. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is required upon becoming aware of any
Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 

        14.    Trustee Dealings with Company.    Subject to certain limitations, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become owner or pledge of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates as if it were not Trustee. 

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

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

        17.    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). 

        18.    Discharge Prior to Maturity.    If the Company deposits with the Trustee or Paying Agent cash or U.S.
Government Securities sufficient to pay the principal or Redemption Price of, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes to maturity or a specified Redemption Date and satisfies
certain conditions specified in the Indenture, the Company will be discharged from the Indenture, except for certain Sections thereof. 

        19.    Governing Law.    The Indenture and Guarantees and this Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York but without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts of law to the extent that the application of the law of another jurisdiction would be required
thereby. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York or any Federal court sitting in the Borough
of Manhattan in the City of New York in respect of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Indenture and the Notes, and irrevocably accept for itself and in respect of its
property, generally and unconditionally, jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, trial by jury
and any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Company in any other jurisdiction. 

        20.    CUSIP Numbers.    Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification
Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to
the correctness or accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the 

A-8

 

Notes
or as contained in any notice of redemption or repurchase and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

        21.    Registration Rights.    Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (for purposes of this paragraph, as
defined in the First Supplemental Indenture), the Company will be obligated upon the occurrence of certain events to consummate an exchange offer pursuant to which the Holder of this Note shall have
the right to exchange this Series A Note for the Company's 11% Senior Secured Notes due 2013, Series B, which have been registered under the Securities Act, in like principal amount and
having terms identical in all material respects as the Series A Notes. The Holders shall be entitled to receive certain payments of Additional Interest in the event such exchange offer is not
consummated and upon certain other conditions, all pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. 

        The
Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Request may be made to:

(Back of Note) 

11%
Senior Secured Notes due 2013 

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

        1.    Interest.    The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 11% per
annum from the date of original issuance until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a
Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an "Interest Payment Date"). Interest on the Note will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of
interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest
Payment Date; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be August 15, 2003. The Company shall pay interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue payments of the principal, Purchase Price and Redemption Price of this Note from time to time on demand at a
rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments
of interest, if any (without regard to any applicable grace periods), hereon from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

        2.    Method of Payment.    The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who
are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the February 1 and August 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date
and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Any such installment of interest not punctually paid or duly
provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holders on such Interest Payment Date, and may be paid to the registered Holders at the close of business on a special interest
payment date to be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice whereof shall be given to the registered Holders not less than ten days prior to such special interest
payment date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be
required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. The Notes will be payable as to principal, Redemption Price, Purchase Price and interest at the office or agency of the Company
maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set
forth in the register of Holders; provided
that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal, Redemption Price and Purchase Price of, and interest (if any) on, all Global Notes and all
other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Trustee or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at
the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

        3.    Paying Agent and Registrar.    Initially, The Bank of New York, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as
Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company may act in any such capacity. 

        4.    Indenture and Guarantees.    The Company issued $300 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
under an Indenture dated as of February 7, 2003 (the "Indenture") between the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee and $50 million in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes under the Indenture, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 5, 2003. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the
Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by 

B-3

 

reference
to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S.C. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the
Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. The Notes are general obligations of the Company. 

        5.    Optional Redemption.    The Company may redeem any or all of the Notes at any time on or after
February 15, 2008, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior notice in amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof at the Redemption Prices (expressed as a percentage of
the principal amount) set forth below, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning January 1 of the years indicated below: 

	Year
 
	 	Redemption Price
	 
	2008	 	105.500	%
	2009	 	103.667	%
	2010	 	101.833	%
	2011 and thereafter	 	100.000	%

in
each case together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed. 

        If
less than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select the particular Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed by lot, pro
rata or by any other method the Trustee shall deem fair and reasonable. 

        6.    Special Redemption.    In the event the Company completes one or more Public Equity Offerings on or before
February 15, 2006, the Company, at its option, may use the net cash proceeds from any such Public Equity Offering to redeem up to 35% of the original principal amount of the Notes (a
"Special Redemption") at a Redemption Price of 111% of the principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of
redemption; provided, however, that at least 65% of the original principal amount of the Notes will remain outstanding immediately after any such
redemption; and provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 90 days after the date of the closing of any such Public Equity
Offering. If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select the particular Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed either: (1) in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed; or (2) by lot, only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a  pro rata
basis as is practicable (subject to DTC procedures). 

        7.    Mandatory Redemption.    Except as set forth in Paragraph 9 below with respect to repurchases of Notes in
certain events, the Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes. 

        8.    Notice of Redemption.    Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, a notice of redemption will be mailed at
least 30 days but not more than 60 days (or 45 days in the case of Mandatory redemption) before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered
address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the
redemption date interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Company has deposited with the Paying Agent funds in satisfaction of the applicable
redemption price. 

        9.    Repurchase at Option of Holder.    

        (a)   If
there is a Change of Control, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a "Change of Control Offer") to
repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a Purchase Price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof  plus accrued and unpaid interest to
the date of repurchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. Within 30 days
following any Change of Control, the Company shall send by first-class mail a notice to 

B-4

 

each
Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 

        (b)   On
the 361st day after an Asset Sale (the "Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date"), such aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds
which have not been applied on or before such Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date as permitted in clauses (3)(A), (3)(B) and (3)(C) of paragraph (a) of Section 4.10 of the Indenture (each, a
"Net Proceeds Offer Amount") shall be applied by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to make an offer to purchase (the
"Net Proceeds Offer"), on a date (the "Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date") not less than 30 nor more than
45 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, from all Holders on a pro rata basis, that amount of Notes equal to the Net
Proceeds Offer Amount at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase. Each Net Proceeds Offer
will be mailed to the record Holders as shown on the register of Holders within 25 days following the Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, with a copy to the Trustee, and shall comply with the
procedures set forth in the Indenture. Upon receiving notice of the Net Proceeds Offer, Holders may elect to tender their Notes in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000 in exchange for
cash. To the extent Holders properly tender Notes in an amount exceeding the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, the tendered Notes will be purchased on a pro
rata basis based on the aggregate amounts of Notes tendered (and the Trustee shall select the tendered Notes of tendering Holders on a pro
rata basis based on the amount of Notes tendered). A Net Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 business days or such longer period as may be required by law. The
Company may defer the Net Proceeds Offer until there is an aggregate unutilized Net Proceeds Offer Amount equal to or in excess of $10 million resulting from one or more Asset Sales (at which
time, the entire unutilized Net Proceeds Offer Amount, and not just the amount in excess of $10 million, shall be applied as required above). 

        (c)   Any
Net Loss Proceeds from an Event of Loss with respect to Collateral that are not applied or invested as provided in the first sentence of paragraph (a) of
Section 4.19 of the Indenture prior to the 361st day after the Event of Loss (the "Loss Proceeds Offer Trigger Date") will be deemed to
constitute "Excess Loss Proceeds." When the aggregate amount of Excess Loss Proceeds exceeds $5.0 million, the Company will make an offer to
purchase (a "Loss Proceeds Offer") on a date (the "Loss Proceeds Offer Payment Date") not less than 30
nor more than 45 days following the applicable Loss Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, from all Holders on a pro rata basis, that amount of Notes equal to the Loss Proceeds Offer Amount at an offer
price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of
record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date in accordance with the procedures set forth herein). If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders
exceeds the Excess Loss Proceeds to be used to purchase Notes, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis. To the extent
that the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant to a Loss Proceeds Offer is less than the Loss Proceeds Offer Amount, the Company may apply any remaining Net Loss Proceeds to any purpose
consistent with the Indenture and, following the consummation of each Loss Proceeds Offer, the Loss Proceeds Offer Amount shall be reset to zero. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
foregoing, the Company may commence a Loss Proceeds Offer prior to the expiration of 360 days after the occurrence of an Event of Loss. 

        10.    Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.    The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among
other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need
not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, 

B-5

 

it
need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding
Interest Payment Date. 

        11.    Persons Deemed Owners.    The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

        12.    Amendment, Supplement and Waiver.    Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture and the Notes may be amended
or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or
the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture and the Notes may be
amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption of the
Company's obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation,
to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, or to
comply with the requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act. 

        13.    Defaults and Remedies.    Events of Default include: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when
due of interest, if any, on the Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of stated principal, Redemption Price or Purchase Price of the Notes when the same becomes due and payable at maturity,
upon redemption, repurchase or otherwise (including the failure to make a payment to purchase Notes tendered pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or a Net Proceeds Offer); (iii) failure by the
Company to comply with any covenant contained in the Indenture for 45 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes outstanding; (iv) default under certain other agreements relating to Indebtedness of the Company which default (a) is caused by a failure to pay any amount due at the stated
maturity thereof or (b) results in the acceleration (which acceleration is not rescinded, annulled or otherwise cured within 20 days of receipt of notice of any such acceleration) of
such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity and, in each case, the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has
been a default for failure to pay principal at final maturity or the maturity of which has been so accelerated (in each case with respect to which the 20-day period described above has
elapsed) aggregates $15.0 million or more; (v) certain final judgments for the payment of money that remain undischarged for a period of 60 days,  provided that the aggregate of all such
undischarged judgments exceeds $15.0 million; and (vi) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
with respect to the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the entire principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if
any, on the Notes shall become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding
Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing
Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to payment on any Note) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Notes may waive any existing or past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, or interest on any Notes.
The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the

Indenture,
and the Company is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 

        14.    Trustee Dealings with Company.    Subject to certain limitations, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become owner or pledge of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates as if it were not Trustee. 

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

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

        17.    Abbreviations.    Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM

with the laws of the State of New York but without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts of law to the extent that the application of the law of another jurisdiction would be required
thereby. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York or any Federal court sitting in the Borough

property, generally and unconditionally, jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, trial by jury
and any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Company in any other jurisdiction. 

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