Section 1.03.  COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES AND OPINIONS.

               Upon any application or request by the Company to the Trustee
to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Company and any
other obligor on the Securities (if applicable) shall furnish to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided
for in this Indenture (including any covenant compliance which constitutes a
condition precedent) relating to the proposed action have been complied with,
and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such
conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except that, in the case
of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such
certificates or opinions is specifically required by any provision of this
Indenture relating to such particular application or request, no additional
certificate or opinion need be furnished.

               Every certificate or Opinion of Counsel with respect to
compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall
include:

               (i)  a statement that each individual signing such certificate
     or individual or firm signing such opinion has read and understands such
     covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating thereto;

               (ii) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the
     examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions
     contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

               (iii) a statement that, in the opinion of each such individual or
     such firm, he or it has made such examination or investigation as is
     necessary to enable him or it to express an informed opinion as to whether
     or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

               (iv) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such
     individual or such firm, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

Section 1.04.  FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO TRUSTEE.

               In any case where several matters are required to be certified
by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that
all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such
Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

               Any certificate of an officer of the Company or other obligor
on the Securities may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a
certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer
knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate
or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his
certificate or opinion is

<PAGE>

                                      -15-

based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion may be based, insofar as it
relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations
by, an officer or officers of the Company or other obligor on the Securities
stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the
possession of the Company or other obligor on the Securities, unless such
officer or counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know,
that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters
are erroneous. Opinions of Counsel required to be delivered to the Trustee may
have qualifications customary for opinions of the type required and counsel
delivering such Opinions of Counsel may rely on certificates of the Company or
government or other officials customary for opinions of the type required,
including certificates certifying as to matters of fact, including that various
financial covenants have been complied with.

               Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company or
other obligor on the Securities may be based, insofar as it relates to
accounting matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an
accountant or firm of accountants in the employ of the Company, unless such
officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the accounting matters
upon which his certificate or opinion may be based are erroneous. Any
certificate or opinion of any independent firm of public accountants filed with
the Trustee shall contain a statement that such firm is independent with respect
to the Company.

               Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or
more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or
other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated
and form one instrument.

Section 1.05.  ACTS OF HOLDERS.

               (a)  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken
by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly
appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered
to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such
instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced
thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing
such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of
a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this
Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the
manner provided in this Section 1.05.

               (b)  The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the
Security Register.

               (c)  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act by the Holder of any Security shall bind every
future Holder of the same Security or the Holder of every Security issued upon
the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of
anything done, suffered or omitted to be done by the Trustee, any Paying Agent
or the Company or any other obligor of the Securities in reliance thereon,
whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

<PAGE>

                                      -16-

               (d)  The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any
such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by
law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such
execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof
of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved
in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

               (e)  If the Company shall solicit from the Holders any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the
Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance
a record date for the determination of such Holders entitled to give such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act,
but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding Trust
Indenture Act Section 316(c), any such record date shall be the record date
specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not
more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in
connection therewith and no later than the date such first solicitation is
completed.

               If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given
before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of
business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for purposes of
determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Securities then
Outstanding have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for this
purpose the Securities then Outstanding shall be computed as of such record
date; PROVIDED that no such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed
effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this
Indenture not later than six months after such record date.

               (f)  For purposes of this Indenture, any action by the Holders
which may be taken in writing may be taken by electronic means or as otherwise
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

Section 1.06.  NOTICES, ETC., TO THE TRUSTEE AND THE COMPANY.

               Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by
this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with:

               (i)  the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or any other
     obligor on the Securities shall be sufficient for every purpose (except as
     provided in Section 5.01(c)) hereunder if in writing and mailed,
     first-class postage prepaid, or delivered by recognized overnight courier,
     to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate
     Trust Administration, or at any other address previously furnished in
     writing to the Holders or the Company or any other obligor on the
     Securities by the Trustee, in any event, with a copy to the

<PAGE>

                                      -17-

     Trustee at 230 South Tryon Street, 9th Floor, Charlotte, North Carolina
     28288-1179, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration; or

               (ii) the Company by the Trustee or any Holder shall be sufficient
     for every purpose (except as provided in Section 5.01(c)) hereunder if in
     writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or delivered by recognized
     overnight courier, to the Company at 3930 Howard Hughes Parkway, Las Vegas,
     Nevada 89109, Attention: Chief Financial Officer or at any other address
     previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

Section 1.07.  NOTICE TO HOLDERS; WAIVER.

               Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any
event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein
expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or
delivered by recognized overnight courier, to each Holder affected by such
event, at its address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the
latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving
of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither
the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any
particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to
other Holders. Any notice when mailed to a Holder in the aforesaid manner shall
be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder whether or not
actually received by such Holder. Where this Indenture provides for notice in
any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to
receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be
the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with
the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity
of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

               In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or
by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of any
event as required by any provision of this Indenture, then any method of giving
such notice as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed
to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

Section 1.08.  CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

               If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with
any provision of the Trust Indenture Act or another provision which is required
or deemed to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act, the provision or requirement of the Trust Indenture Act shall
control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision
of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter
provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be
excluded, as the case may be.

Section 1.09.  EFFECT OF HEADINGS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS.

               The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents
are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 1.10.  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

               All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company
shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

               In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities

impaired thereby.

Section 1.12.  BENEFITS OF INDENTURE.

               Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or
implied, shall give to any Person (other than the parties hereto and their

or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 1.13.  NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEE AND
               STOCKHOLDERS.

incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, shall have any liability
for any obligations of the Company or any successor Person or any of the
Company's Affiliates under the Securities, the Indenture, the Security Agreement
or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or
their creation. Each Holder of Securities by accepting a Security waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration issuance of the Securities. The waiver may not be effective to
waive liabilities under the Federal securities laws.

Section 1.14.  GOVERNING LAW.

               THIS INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.

Section 1.15.  LEGAL HOLIDAYS; PAYMENT OF SECURITIES.

               In any case where any Interest Payment Date or Redemption
Date, Maturity or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day,
then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the
Securities) payment of interest or principal or premium, if any, need not be
made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the
same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or Redemption
Date, or at the Maturity or Stated Maturity and no interest shall accrue with
respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date
or Redemption Date, Maturity or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, to the next
succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.16.  INDEPENDENCE OF COVENANTS.

               All covenants and agreements in this Indenture shall be given
independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted
by any such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to,
or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the
occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or
condition exists.

Section 1.17.  SCHEDULES AND EXHIBITS.

               All schedules and exhibits attached hereto are by this reference

               This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original; but all such counterparts shall
together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 1.19. COMMUNICATIONS BY HOLDERS WITH OTHER HOLDERS.

Agent and any other Person shall have the protection of Trust Indenture Act
Section 312(c).

effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) an Initial

         ACT, OR (c) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION
         REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (AND BASED UPON AN OPINION OF

         TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND, IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE
         WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES

                                      -23-

               The  Holder of this Series A Security is entitled to the
benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement. Under the Registration Rights
Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Company is obligated
to consummate the Exchange Offer pursuant to which the Holder of this Series A
Security shall have the right to exchange this Series A Security for a like
principal amount of the Series B Securities as provided therein. The Series A
Securities and the Series B Securities are together referred to as the
"Securities." The Series A Securities rank PARI PASSU in right of payment with
the Series B Securities.

               In the event that (a) the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the 30th calendar day
following the date of original issue of the Series A Securities, (b) the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not been declared effective on or
prior to the 120th calendar day following the date of original issue of the
Series A Securities or (c) the Exchange Offer is not consummated or, if the
Company is prohibited from doing an Exchange Offer, a Shelf Registration
Statement is not declared effective, in either case, on or prior to the 150th
calendar day following the date of original issue of the Series A Securities
(each such event referred to in clauses (a) through (c) above, a "Registration
Default"), the interest rate borne by the Series A Securities shall be increased
by an absolute amount of 0.25% per annum upon the occurrence of any Registration
Default, which rate (as increased as aforesaid) will increase by an additional
absolute amount of 0.25% each 90-day period that such additional interest
continues to accrue under any such circumstance; provided, that the maximum
aggregate increase in the interest rate will in no event exceed an absolute
amount of one percent (1%) per annum. Following the cure of all Registration
Defaults, the accrual of additional interest will cease and the interest rate
will revert to the original rate PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, if after any such
reduction in interest rate, a different event specified in clause (a), (b) or
(c) above occurs, the interest rate shall again be increased pursuant to the
foregoing provisions.

               The  interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided
for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid
to the Person in whose name this Security (or any Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
interest, which shall be the February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a Business
Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such
interest not so punctually paid, or duly provided for, and interest on such
defaulted interest at the interest rate borne by the Securities, to the extent
lawful, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record
Date, and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or any
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the
Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required
by this Indenture not inconsistent with the requirements of such exchange, all
as more fully provided in this Indenture.

               Payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on,
the Securities, and exchange or transfer of the Securities, will be made at the
office or agency of the Company in The City of New York maintained for that
purpose (which initially will be a corporate trust office of the Trustee located
at Norwest Corporate Trust, c/o Depository Trust Company, 1st Floor, TADS
Department,

55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041), or at such other office or agency as
may be maintained for such purpose, 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; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that payment of interest may be
made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register.

               Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this
Series A Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions
shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

               Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been duly
executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof or by the
authenticating agent appointed as provided in the Indenture by manual signature
of an authorized signer, this Series A Security shall not be entitled to any
benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

               IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to
be duly executed by the manual or facsimile signature of its authorized
officers.

               Park Place Entertainment Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(herein called the "Company," which term includes any successor Person under the
Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay
to _____________ or registered assigns, the principal sum of ___________ United
States dollars on February 15, 2007, at the office or agency of the Company
referred to below, and to pay interest thereon from February 22, 2000, or from
the most recent Interest

                                      -26-

Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semiannually
on February 15 and August 15 in each year, commencing August 15, 2000 at the
rate of 9 3/8% per annum, subject to adjustments as described in the second
following paragraph, in United States dollars, until the principal hereof is
paid or duly provided for. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

               This Series B Security was issued pursuant to the Exchange
Offer pursuant to which the Series A Securities were exchanged for a like
principal amount of the Series B Securities. The Series B Securities rank PARI
PASSU in right of payment with the Series A Securities. The Series A Securities
and the Series B Securities are together referred to as the "Securities."

               For any period in which the Series A Security exchanged for
this Series B Security was outstanding, in the event that (a) the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the 30th
calendar day following the date of original issue of the Series A Securities,
(b) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not been declared effective on
or prior to the 120th calendar day following the date of original issue of the
Series A Securities or (c) the Exchange Offer is not consummated or, if the
Company is prohibited from doing an Exchange Offer, a Shelf Registration
Statement is not declared effective, in either case, on or prior to the 150th
calendar day following the date of original issue of the Series A Securities
(each such event referred to in clauses (a) through (c) above, a "Registration
Default"), the interest rate borne by the Series A Securities shall be increased
by an absolute amount of 0.25% per annum upon the occurrence of any Registration
Default, which rate (as increased as aforesaid) will increase by an additional
absolute amount of 0.25% each 90-day period that such additional interest
continues to accrue under any such circumstance; provided, that the maximum
aggregate increase in the interest rate will in no event exceed an absolute
amount of one percent (1%) per annum. Following the cure of all Registration
Defaults the accrual of additional interest will cease and the interest rate
will revert to the original rate; PROVIDED that, to the extent interest at such
increased interest rate has been paid or duly provided for with respect to the
Series A Securities, interest at such increased interest rate, if any, on the
Series B Securities shall accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date to
which such interest on the Series A Security has been paid or duly provided for;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, if after any such reduction in interest rate, a
different event specified in clause (a), (b) or (c) above occurs, the interest
rate shall again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provisions.

               The  interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided
for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid
to the Person in whose name this Security (or any Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
interest, which shall be the February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a Business
Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such
interest not so punctually paid, or duly provided for, and interest on such
defaulted interest at the interest rate borne by the Securities, to the extent
lawful, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record
Date, and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or any
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the
Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent

                                      -27-

with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be
listed, and upon such notice as may be required by this Indenture not
inconsistent with the requirements of such exchange, all as more fully provided
in this Indenture.

               Payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on,
the Securities, and exchange or transfer of the Securities, will be made at the
office or agency of the Company in The City of New York maintained for that
purpose (which initially will be a corporate trust office of the Trustee located
at Norwest Corporate Trust, c/o Depository Trust Company, 1st Floor, TADS
Department, 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041), or at such other office
or agency as may be maintained for such purpose, 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; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that payment of interest may be
made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register.

               Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this
Series B Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions
shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

               Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been duly
executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof or by the
authenticating agent appointed as provided in the Indenture by manual signature
of an authorized signer, this Series B Security shall not be entitled to any
benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

               IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to
be duly executed by the manual or facsimile signature of its authorized
officers.

Section 2.03.  FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITIES.

               (a)  The form of the reverse of the Initial Securities shall be
substantially as follows:

                      PARK PLACE ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION

                      9 3/8% Series A Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007

               This Series A Security is one of a duly authorized issue of
securities of the Company designated as its 9 3/8% Series A Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2007 (herein called the "Series A Securities"), limited (except as
otherwise provided in the Indenture referred to below) in aggregate principal
amount to $500,000,000, issued under and subject to the terms of an indenture
(herein called the "Indenture") dated as of February 22, 2000 between the
Company and Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A., as trustee (herein called the
"Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to
which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made
for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties,
obligations and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the
Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and
are to be, authenticated and delivered.

               The  Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time
of (a) the entire Debt on the Securities and (b) certain restrictive covenants
and related Defaults and Events of Default, in each case upon compliance with
certain conditions set forth therein.

               The Securities are subject to redemption at any time, at the
option of the Company, in whole but not in part, on not less than 30 nor more
than 60 days' prior notice, in amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple
thereof, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof
plus the Make-Whole Premium, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon,
if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the rights of Holders of record on
relevant record dates to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date).

               In the case of any redemption or repurchase of Securities in
accordance with the Indenture, interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on
or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such
Securities of record as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record
Date or Special Record Date referred to on the face hereof. Securities (or
portions thereof) for whose redemption and payment provision is made in
accordance with the Indenture shall cease to bear interest from and after the
Redemption Date.

<PAGE>

                                      -29-

               Each Holder, by accepting a Security, shall be deemed to have
agreed that if the gaming authority of any jurisdiction in which the Company or
any of its subsidiaries conducts or proposes to conduct gaming requires that a
Person who is a Holder or the beneficial owner of Securities be licensed,
qualified or found suitable under applicable gaming laws, such Holder or
beneficial owner, as the case may be, shall apply for a license, qualification
or a finding of suitability within the required time period. If such Person
fails to apply or become licensed or qualified or is found unsuitable, the
Company shall have the right, at its option to (a) require such Person to
dispose of its Securities or beneficial interest therein within 30 days of
receipt of notice of the Company's election or such earlier date as may be
requested or prescribed by such gaming authority; or (b) redeem such Securities
at a redemption price equal to the lesser of (i) such Person's cost or (ii) 100%
of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, if any, to the earlier of the Redemption Date or the date of the
finding of unsuitablility which may be less than 30 days following the notice of
redemption if so requested or prescribed by the applicable gaming authority.

               In the event of redemption or repurchase of the Securities in
accordance with the Indenture in part only, a new Security or Securities for the
unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon
the cancellation hereof.

               If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the
principal amount of all the Securities may be declared due and payable in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

               The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions (including
certain amendments permitted without the consent of any Holders and certain
amendments which require the consent of all the Holders) as therein provided,
the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders under the Indenture and the Securities at
any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of at
least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time
Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of at
least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities (100% of the
Holders in certain circumstances) at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the
Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain
provisions of the Indenture and the Securities and certain past Defaults under
the Indenture and the Securities and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of a Security shall be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of such Security and of any
Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor
or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon
such Security.

               No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of the
Securities or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company or any other obligor on the Securities (in the event such other obligor
is obligated to make payments in respect of the Securities), which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on,
the Securities at the times, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency,
herein prescribed.

<PAGE>

                                      -30-

               As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of a Security is registrable in the
Security Register, upon surrender of such Security for registration of transfer
at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer
in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by,
the Holder hereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one
or more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

               Certificated securities shall be transferred to all beneficial
holders in exchange for their beneficial interests in the Rule 144A Global
Securities if (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or
unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security and a successor
Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days or (y) there shall
have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default and the Security Registrar
has received a request from the Depositary. Upon any such issuance, the Trustee
is required to register such certificated Securities in the name of, and cause
the same to be delivered to, such Person or Persons (or the nominee of any
thereof). All such certificated Series A Securities would be required to include
the Private Placement Legend.

               Securities in certificated form are issuable only in
registered form without coupons in a minimum amount of $100,000 and in
denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof that is above the
minimum amount of $100,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Securities are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of Securities of a differing authorized denomination,
as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

               At any time when the Company is not subject to Sections 13 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act, upon the written request of a Holder of a Series A
Security, the Company will promptly furnish or cause to be furnished such
information as is specified pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act
(or any successor provision thereto) to such Holder or to a prospective
purchaser of such Series A Security who such Holder informs the Company is
reasonably believed to be a "Qualified Institutional Buyer" within the meaning
of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as the case may be, in order to permit
compliance by such Holder with Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

               No service charge shall be made for any registration of
transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith.

               Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of
transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, whether or not such Security is overdue, and neither
the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

               THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION
5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.

<PAGE>

                                      -31-

               All terms used in this Series A Security which are defined in
the Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned
to them in the Indenture.

               The Transferee Certificate, in the form of Appendix I hereto,
will be attached to the Initial Security.

               Unless and until (i) an Initial Security is sold under an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) an Initial
Security is exchanged for an Exchange Security in connection with an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act, in each case pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement, then the Restricted Security Certificate, in the
form of Exhibit A hereto, will be attached to the Initial Security. After such
Initial Security is sold under an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act or exchanged for an Exchange Security, then the Unrestricted
Security Certificate, in the form of Exhibit B hereto, will be attached to the
Exchange Security.

               (b)  The form of the reverse of the Exchange Securities shall
be substantially as follows:

dispose of its Securities or beneficial interest therein within 30 days of
receipt of notice of the Company's election or such earlier date as may be
requested or prescribed by such gaming authority; or (b) redeem such Securities

thereon, if any, to the earlier of the Redemption Date or the date of the
finding of unsuitability which may be less than 30 days following the notice of
redemption if so requested or prescribed by the applicable gaming authority.

               In the event of redemption or repurchase of the Securities in
accordance with the Indenture in part only, a new Security or Securities for the
unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon
the cancellation hereof.

               If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the

               No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of the
Securities or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the

               The Unrestricted Security Certificate, in the form of Exhibit B
hereto, and the Transferee Certificate, in the form of Appendix II hereto, will
be attached to the Exchange Security.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                 THE SECURITIES

Section 3.01.  TITLE AND TERMS.

               The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be
authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is limited to $500,000,000 in
principal amount of Securities, except for Securities authenticated and
delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of,
other Securities pursuant to Section 3.03, 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 3.07, 3.08, 9.06 or
11.08.

               The Initial Securities shall be known and designated as the
"9 3/8% Series A Senior Subordinated Securities due 2007" of the Company. The
Exchange Securities shall be known and designated as the "9 3/8% Series B Senior
Subordinated Securities due 2007" of the Company. The Stated Maturity of the
Securities shall be February 15, 2007, and the Securities shall each bear
interest at the rate of 9 3/8% per annum, as such interest rate may be adjusted
as set forth in the Securities and the Registration Rights Agreement, from
February 22, 2000 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which
interest has been paid, as applicable, payable semiannually on February 15 and
August 15 in each year, commencing August 15, 2000, until the principal thereof
is paid or duly provided for. Interest on any overdue principal, interest (to
the extent lawful) or premium, if any, shall be payable on demand.

               The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the
Securities shall be payable and the Securities shall be exchangeable and
transferable at an office or agency of the Company in The City of New York
maintained for such purposes (which initially will be a corporate trust office
of the Trustee located at Norwest Corporate Trust, c/o Depository Trust Company,
1st Floor, TADS Department, 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041);
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the
Company by check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled thereto as shown on
the Security Register.

               For all purposes hereunder, the Initial Securities and the
Exchange Securities will be treated as one class and are together referred to as
the "Securities." The Initial Securities rank PARI PASSU in right of payment
with the Exchange Securities.

               The Securities shall be redeemable as provided in Article XI
and in the Securities.

               At the election of the Company, the entire Debt on the Securities
or certain of the Company's obligations and covenants and certain Events of
Default thereunder may be defeased as provided in Article IV.

<PAGE>

                                      -35-

Section 3.02.  DENOMINATIONS.

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

Section 3.03.  EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION, DELIVERY AND DATING.

               The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by
one of its Chairman of the Board, its President, its Chief Executive Officer,
its Chief Financial Officer or one of its Vice Presidents attested by its
Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signatures of any of these
officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

               Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of
individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind
the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to
hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or
did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

               At any time and from time to time after the execution and
delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed by the
Company to the Trustee (with or without Guarantees endorsed thereon) for
authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and
delivery of such Securities; and the Trustee in accordance with such Company
Order shall authenticate and make available for delivery such Securities as
provided in this Indenture and not otherwise.

               Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

               No Security endorsed thereon shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there
appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the
form provided for herein duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an
authorized officer, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated
and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

               In case the Company, pursuant to Article VIII, shall, in a single
transaction or through a series of related transactions, be consolidated or
merged with or into any other Person or shall sell, assign, convey or transfer
its properties and assets substantially in their entirety to any Person, and the
successor Person resulting from such consolidation or surviving such merger, or
into which the Company shall have been merged, or the successor Person which
shall have participated in the sale, assignment, conveyance or transfer, as
aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee
pursuant to Article VIII, any of the Securities authenticated or delivered prior
to such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, conveyance or transfer may,
from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for
other Securities executed in the name of the successor Person with such changes
in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise in substance of
like tenor as the Securities surrendered for such exchange and of like principal
amount; and the Trustee, upon request of the successor Person, shall
authenticate and deliver Securities

<PAGE>

                                      -36-

as specified in such request for the purpose of such exchange. If Securities
shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor
Person pursuant to this Section 3.03 in exchange or substitution for or upon
registration of transfer of any Securities, such successor Person, at the option
of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of
all Securities at the time Outstanding for Securities authenticated and
delivered in such new name.

               The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to
the Company to authenticate Securities on behalf of the Trustee. Unless limited
by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate
Securities 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 any Security Registrar or Paying
Agent to deal with the Company and its Affiliates.

               If an officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds
that office at the time the Trustee authenticates such Security such Security
shall be valid nevertheless.

Section 3.04.  TEMPORARY SECURITIES.

               Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company
may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and make
available for delivery, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed,
typewritten or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially
of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and
with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations
as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively
evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

               If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause
definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be
exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary
Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose
pursuant to Section 10.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute
and the Trustee (in accordance with a Company Order for the authentication of
such Securities) shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange
therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized
denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities.

Section 3.05.  REGISTRATION, REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

               The Company shall cause the Trustee to keep, so long as it is
the Security Registrar, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or such
other office as the Trustee may designate, a register (the register maintained
in such office or in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section
10.02 being herein sometimes referred to as the "Security Register") in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as the Security Registrar may prescribe,
the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of
Securities. Such transfers of Securities must be in a minimum amount of
$100,000. The Trustee shall initially be the "Security Registrar" for the
purpose

<PAGE>
                                      -37-

of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. The
Company may change the Security Registrar or appoint one or more co-Security
Registrars without notice.

               Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at
the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 10.02, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall (in accordance with a Company Order
for the authentication of such Securities) authenticate and make available for
delivery, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Securities of the same series of any authorized denomination or
denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount.

               Furthermore, any Holder of the Global Security shall, by
acceptance of such Global Security, agree that transfers of beneficial interests
in such Global Security may be effected only through a book-entry system
maintained by the Holder of such Global Security (or its agent), and that
ownership of a beneficial interest in a Security shall be required to be
reflected in a book entry. Transfers of beneficial interests must be in a
minimum amount of $100,000.

               At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for
other Securities of any authorized denomination or denominations, of a like
aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at
such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall (in accordance with a Company
Order for the authentication of such Securities) authenticate and make available
for delivery, Securities of the same series which the Holder making the exchange
is entitled to receive; PROVIDED that no exchange of Initial Securities for
Exchange Securities shall occur until an Exchange Offer Registration Statement
shall have been declared effective by the Commission and the Initial Securities
exchanged for the Exchange Securities have been canceled.

               All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing
the same Debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the
Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

               Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of
transfer, or for exchange, repurchase or redemption, shall (if so required by
the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security
Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing.

               No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration
of transfer, exchange or redemption of Securities, except for any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith, other than
exchanges pursuant to Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.05, 9.06 or 11.08 not involving any
transfer.

               The Company shall not be required (a) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of the Securities
selected for redemption under Section 11.04 and ending at the close of business
on the day of such mailing or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange any
Security

<PAGE>

                                      -38-

so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of
Securities being redeemed in part.

               Every Security shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer
provided in the legend required to be set forth on the face of each Security
pursuant to Section 2.02, and the restrictions set forth in this Section 3.05,
and the Holder of each Security, by such Holder's acceptance thereof (or
interest therein), agrees to be bound by such restrictions on transfer.

               Except as provided in the preceding paragraph, any Security
authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange
for, or in lieu of, any Global Security, whether pursuant to this Section 3.05,
Section 3.04, 3.08, 9.06 or 11.08 or otherwise, shall also be a Global Security
and bear the legend specified in Section 2.02.

Section 3.06.  BOOK ENTRY PROVISIONS FOR GLOBAL SECURITIES.

               (a)  Each Global Security initially shall (i) be registered in
the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or the nominee of such
Depositary, (ii) be deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depositary or with the
Trustee as custodian for such Depositary and (iii) bear legends as set forth in
Section 2.02.

               Members of, or participants in, the Depositary ("Agent Members")
shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security
held on their behalf by the Depositary, or the Trustee as its custodian, or
under such Global Security, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company,
the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of
such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the
Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or
other authorization furnished by the Depositary or shall impair, as between the
Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing
the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Security.

               (b)  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no
Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered,
and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in
the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a
nominee thereof unless (i) the Company notifies the Trustee in writing that such
Depositary (A) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to
continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (B) has ceased to be a
clearing agency registered as such under the Exchange Act, and in either case
the Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days, (ii) the
Company, at its option, executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order
stating that it elects to cause the issuance of the Securities in certificated
form and that all Global Securities shall be exchanged in whole for Securities
that are not Global Securities (in which case such exchange shall be effected by
the Trustee) or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of
Default or any event which after notice or lapse of time or both would be an
Event of Default with respect to such Global Security.

<PAGE>

                                      -39-

               (c)  If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other
Securities or canceled in whole, it shall be surrendered by or on behalf of the
Depositary or its nominee to the Trustee, as Security Registrar, for exchange or
cancellation as provided in this Article III. If any Global Security is to be
exchanged for other Securities or canceled in part, or if another Security is to
be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in any Global
Security, then either (i) such Global Security shall be so surrendered for
exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article III or (ii) the principal
amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion
thereof to be so exchanged or canceled, or equal to the principal amount of such
other Security to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as the case
may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the
Trustee, as Security Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized
representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such
surrender or adjustment of a Global Security, the Trustee shall, subject to this
Section 3.06(c) and as otherwise provided in this Article III, authenticate and
deliver any Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Security (or any
portion thereof) to or upon the order of, and registered in such names as may be
directed by, the Depositary or its authorized representative. Upon the request
of the Trustee in connection with the occurrence of any of the events specified
in the preceding paragraph, the Company shall promptly make available to the
Trustee a reasonable supply of Securities that are not in the form of Global
Securities. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon any order, direction or
request of the Depositary or its authorized representative which is given or
made pursuant to this Article III if such order, direction or request is given
or made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

               (d)  Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration
of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any
portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Article III or otherwise, shall be
authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security,
unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the
Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

               (e)  The Depositary or its nominee, as registered owner of a
Global Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Security for all purposes
under the Indenture and the Securities, and owners of beneficial interests in a
Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Procedures.
Accordingly, any such owner's beneficial interest in a Global Security will be
shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through,
records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Agent Members.

Section 3.07.  SPECIAL TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE PROVISIONS.

               (a)  CERTAIN TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES. Transfers and exchanges
of Securities and beneficial interests in a Global Security of the kinds
specified in this Section 3.07 shall be made only in accordance with this
Section 3.07.

               (b)  EXCHANGES BETWEEN GLOBAL SECURITY AND NON-GLOBAL SECURITY.
A beneficial interest in a Global Security may be exchanged for a Security that
is not a Global Security as provided in Section 3.06(b).

<PAGE>

                                      -40-

               (c)  PRIVATE PLACEMENT LEGENDS. Rule 144A Securities and their
Successor Securities shall bear a Private Placement Legend, subject to the
following:

               (i)  subject to the following clauses of this Section 3.07(b), a
     Security or any portion thereof which is exchanged, upon transfer or
     otherwise, for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall bear the
     Private Placement Legend borne by such Global Security while represented
     thereby;

               (ii) subject to the following clauses of this Section 3.07(b), a
     new Security which is not a Global Security and is issued in exchange for
     another Security (including a Global Security) or any portion thereof, upon
     transfer or otherwise, shall bear the Private Placement Legend borne by
     such other Security;

               (iii) Exchange Securities, and all other Securities sold or
     otherwise disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under
     the Securities Act, together with their respective Successor Securities,
     shall not bear a Private Placement Legend;

               (iv) at any time after the Securities may be freely transferred
     without registration under the Securities Act or without being subject to
     transfer restrictions pursuant to the Securities Act, a new Security which
     does not bear a Private Placement Legend may be issued in exchange for or
     in lieu of a Security (other than a Global Security) or any portion thereof
     which bears such a legend if the Trustee has received an Unrestricted
     Securities Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto,
     satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by the Holder of such
     legended Security or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and after
     such date and receipt of such certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate
     and deliver such a new Security in exchange for or in lieu of such other
     Security as provided in this Article III;

               (v)  a new Security which does not bear a Private Placement
     Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Security (other than a
     Global Security) or any portion thereof which bears such a legend if, in
     the Company's judgment, placing such a legend upon such new Security is not
     necessary to ensure compliance with the registration requirements of the
     Securities Act, and the Trustee, at the direction of the Company, shall
     authenticate and deliver such a new Security as provided in this Article
     III; and

               (vi) notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
     Section 3.07(b), a Successor Security of a Security that does not bear a
     particular form of Private Placement Legend shall not bear such form of
     legend unless the Company has reasonable cause to believe that such
     Successor Security is a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule
     144, in which case the Trustee, at the direction of the Company, shall
     authenticate and deliver a new Security bearing a Private Placement Legend
     in exchange for such Successor Security as provided in this Article III.

               By its acceptance of any Security bearing the Private Placement
Legend, each Holder of such a Security acknowledges the restrictions on transfer
of such Security set forth in this Indenture

<PAGE>

                                      -41-

and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such
Security only as provided in this Indenture.

                The Security Registrar shall retain copies of all letters,
notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 3.06 or
this Section 3.07. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies
of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable
time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Security Registrar.

Section 3.08.  MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN SECURITIES.

               If (i) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or
(ii) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and there is delivered to the
Company, and the Trustee, such security or indemnity, in each case, as may be
required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice
to the Company, or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona
fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon a Company Request the Trustee
shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for any such
mutilated Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a
replacement Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.

               In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security
has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion
may, instead of issuing a replacement Security, pay such Security.

               Upon the issuance of any replacement Securities under this
Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to pay all
documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or other governmental
charges that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses
(including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

               Every replacement Security issued pursuant to this Section in
lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original
additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed,
lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any
and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

               The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude
(to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

Section 3.09.  PAYMENT OF INTEREST; INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED.

               Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid
or duly provided for, on the Stated Maturity of such interest shall be paid to
the Person in whose name the Security (or any Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest
payment.

<PAGE>

                                      -42-

               Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not
punctually paid or duly provided for, on the Stated Maturity of such interest,
and interest on such defaulted interest at the then applicable interest rate
borne by the Securities, to the extent lawful (such defaulted interest and
interest thereon herein collectively called "Defaulted Interest"), shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date; and such
Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as
provided in Subsection (a) or (b) below:

               (a)  The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted
Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or any relevant
Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in
the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the
amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date
(not less than 30 days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the "Special
Payment Date"), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee
an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect
of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the
Trustee for such deposit prior to the Special Payment Date, such money when
deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
Defaulted Interest as in this Subsection provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall
fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall
be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the
Special Payment Date and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee
of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Company in writing of such Special Record Date. In the name and at the expense
of the Company, the Trustee shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at its address as it appears in the
Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date.
Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record
Date and Special Payment Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted
Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities are
registered on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant
to the following Subsection (b).

               (b)  The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in
any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities
exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be
required by this Indenture not inconsistent with the requirements of such
exchange, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the
proposed payment pursuant to this Subsection, such payment shall be deemed
practicable by the Trustee.

               Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.09, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

Section 3.10.  CUSIP NUMBERS.

               The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if
then generally in use), and the Company, or the Trustee on behalf of the
Company, shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a
convenience to Holders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such notice shall state that
no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as
printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption or
exchange and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Securities; and PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that failure
to use CUSIP numbers in any notice of redemption or exchange shall not affect
the validity or sufficiency of such notice.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                       DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 4.01.  COMPANY'S OPTION TO EFFECT DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

               The Company may, at its option by Board Resolution, with respect
to the Securities, elect to have either Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 be applied
to all of the Outstanding Securities (the "Defeased Securities"), upon
compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Four.

Section 4.02.  DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE.

               Upon the Company's exercise under Section 4.01 of the option
applicable to this Section 4.02, the Company and any other obligor upon the
Securities, if any, shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations
with respect to the Defeased Securities on the date the conditions set forth in
Section 4.04 below are satisfied (hereinafter, "defeasance"). For this purpose,
such defeasance means that the Company and any other obligor upon the Securities
shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Debt represented by the
Defeased Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding" only
for the purposes of Section 4.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture
referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other
obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities
are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company and upon Company
Request, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for
the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of Defeased Securities to receive, solely
from the trust fund described in Section 4.04 and as more fully set forth in
such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on, such Securities, when such payments are due, (b) the Company's
obligations with respect to such Defeased Securities under Sections 3.04, 3.05,
3.08, 10.02 and 10.03, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of
the Trustee hereunder, including, without limitation, the Trustee's rights under
Section 6.07, and (d) this Article IV. Subject to compliance with this Article
IV, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 4.02 notwithstanding
the prior exercise of its option under Section 4.03 with respect to the
Securities.

Section 4.03.  COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

               Upon the Company's exercise under Section 4.01 of the option
applicable to this Section 4.03, the Company shall be released from its
obligations under any covenant or provision contained or referred to in Sections
10.05 through 10.11, inclusive, and Article VIII hereof, with respect to the
Defeased Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section
4.04 below are satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and the Defeased
Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not "Outstanding" for the purposes
of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the
consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall
continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this
purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Defeased
Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in
respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section,
whether

<PAGE>

                                      -45-

directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision
herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute
a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.01(c) but, except as specified
above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Defeased Securities shall be
unaffected thereby.

Section 4.04.  CONDITIONS TO DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

               The following shall be the conditions to application of either
Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 to the Defeased Securities:

               (a)  The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to
be deposited with the Trustee as trust 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 such Securities, (i) cash in United
States dollars, (ii) U.S. Government Obligations, or (iii) a combination
thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants or a nationally recognized
investment banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered
to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee
to pay and discharge, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (which
shall include Additional Interest, if any) on, the Defeased Securities, on the
stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the
case may be, of such principal, premium, if any, or interest (which shall
include Additional Interest, if any) on such Defeased Securities if at or prior
to electing to exercise either its option applicable to Section 4.02 or its
option applicable to Section 4.03, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an
irrevocable notice of such defeasance, including the date that such defeasance
is to occur. For this purpose, "U.S. Government Obligations" means securities
that are (i) direct obligations of the United States of America for the timely
payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (ii) obligations of a
Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of
the United States of America the timely payment of which is unconditionally
guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of
America, which, in either case, are not callable or redeemable at the option of
the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depositary receipt issued by a bank
(as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act), as custodian with respect
to any such U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or
interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the
account of the holder of such depositary receipt, PROVIDED that (except as
required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the
amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received
by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific
payment of principal of or interest on the U.S. Government Obligation evidenced
by such depositary receipt;

               (b)  In the case of an election under Section 4.02, the Company
shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Independent Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (i) the
Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue
Service a ruling or (ii) since the date hereof, there has been a change in the
applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based
thereon such Opinion of Independent Counsel in the United States shall confirm
that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not

<PAGE>

                                      -46-

recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of
such 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
defeasance had not occurred;

               (c)  In the case of an election under Section 4.03, the Company
shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Independent Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to such Trustee to the effect that the
Holders of the Outstanding Securities 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;

               (d)  No Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or
Event of Default under this Indenture resulting from the borrowing of funds to
be applied to such deposit) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of
such deposit, and with respect to an election under Section 4.02 insofar as
Section 5.01(e) or (f) is concerned, at any time during the period ending on the
91st day after the date of deposit (it being understood that this condition
shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period);

               (e)  Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in
a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default under, this Indenture or any
other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary is a party or by which it is bound;

               (f)  The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent
of preferring the holders of the Securities over the other creditors of the
Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding
creditors of the Company or others;

               Opinions of Counsel or Opinions of Independent Counsel required
to be delivered under this Section shall be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee and may have qualifications customary for opinions
of the type required and counsel delivering such opinions may rely on
certificates of the Company or government or other officials customary for
opinions of the type required, which certificates shall be limited as to matters
of fact, including that various financial covenants have been complied with.

Section 4.05.  DEPOSITED MONEY AND U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS TO BE HELD IN
               TRUST; OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

               Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03,
all United States dollars and U.S. Government Obligations (including the
proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.04 in respect
of the Defeased Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in
accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (excluding the Company or
any of its Affiliates acting as Paying Agent), as the Trustee may determine, to
the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in
respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

<PAGE>

                                      -47-

               The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax,
fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 4.04 or the principal and interest
received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is imposed, assessed or for the account of the Holders of the Defeased
Securities.

               Anything in this Article IV to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company
Request any United States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as
provided in Section 4.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm
of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then
be required to be deposited to effect defeasance or covenant defeasance.

Section 4.06.  REINSTATEMENT.

               If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United
States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.02 or
4.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or
governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, then the Company's obligations under this Indenture and the
Securities shall be revived and reinstated, with present and prospective effect,
as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 4.02 or 4.03, as the case
may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all
such United States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with
Section 4.02 or 4.03, as the case may be; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Company
makes any payment to the Trustee or Paying Agent of principal of, premium, if
any, or interest on any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations,
the Trustee or Paying Agent shall promptly pay any such amount to the Holders of
the Securities and the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders
of such Securities to receive such payment from the United States dollars and
U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                    ARTICLE V

Section 5.02.  ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

               If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified
in Sections 5.01(e) and (f) with respect to the Company) shall occur and be
continuing with respect to this Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of not
less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding
may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare all unpaid
principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all Securities to be due
and payable, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given
by the Holders of the Securities) and upon any such declaration, such principal,
premium, if any, and interest shall become due and payable immediately. If an
Event of Default specified in clause (e) or (f) of Section 5.01 occurs with
respect to the Company and is continuing, then all the Securities shall IPSO
FACTO become and be due and payable immediately in an amount equal to the
principal amount of the Securities, together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, if any, to the date the Securities become due and payable, without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Thereupon,
the Trustee may, at its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce the rights of
the Holders of the Securities by appropriate judicial proceedings.

               After a declaration of acceleration with respect to the
Securities, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has
been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities
Outstanding, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences if:

          (a)  the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
     sufficient to pay

          (b)  all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and
     the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
     Trustee, its agents and counsel,

          (c)  all overdue interest on all Outstanding Securities,

          (d)  the principal of and premium, if any, on any Outstanding
     Securities which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of
     acceleration and interest thereon at a rate borne by the Securities,

          (e)  to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest
     upon overdue interest at the rate borne by the Securities, and

          (f)  all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of
     the Securities which have become due solely by such declaration of
     acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. No
     such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right
     consequent thereon.

Section 5.03.  COLLECTION OF DEBT AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE.

               The Company covenants that if

<PAGE>

                                      -50-

               (a)  default is made in the payment of any interest on any
          Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default
          continues for a period of 30 days, or

               (b)  default is made in the payment of the principal of or
          premium, if any, on any Security at the Stated Maturity thereof,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such
Securities for principal and premium, if any, and interest, with interest upon
the overdue principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent that payment of
such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of
interest, at the rate borne by the Securities; and, in addition thereto, such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

               If the Company fails to pay such amounts within 3 Business Days
of such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust,
may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and
unpaid and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may
enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities
and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided
by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities, wherever situated.

               If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may
in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of
the Holders under this Indenture by such appropriate private or judicial
proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce such
rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in
this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein or therein,
or to enforce any other proper remedy, subject however to Section 5.12. No
recovery of any such judgment upon any property of the Company shall affect or
impair any rights, powers or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders.

Section 5.04.  TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

               In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency,
liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities
shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on
the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

               (a)  to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of
          principal, and premium, if any, and interest owing and unpaid in
          respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents
          as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
          Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation,
          expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
          counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

<PAGE>

                                      -51-

               (b)  to collect and receive any moneys or other property
          payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee
shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the
Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07.

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

Section 5.05.  TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF SECURITIES.

               All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the
Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession
of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating
thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in
its own name and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment
shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

Section 5.06.  APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED.

               Any money and property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this
Article or otherwise on behalf of the Holders or the Trustee pursuant to this
Article or through any proceeding or any arrangement or restructuring in
anticipation or in lieu of any proceeding contemplated by this Article shall be
applied, subject to applicable law, in the following order, at the date or dates
fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account
of principal, premium, if any, or interest, upon presentation of the Securities
and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon
surrender thereof if fully paid:

               FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under
          Section 6.07;

               SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon
          the Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, in
          respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been
          collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind,
          according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for
          principal, premium, if any, and interest; and

<PAGE>

          in its own name as trustee hereunder;

               (c)  such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee an
          indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and

          been given to the Trustee during such 15-day period by the Holders of
          a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any
right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of
this Indenture or any Security to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any
other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any

benefit of all the Holders.

Section 5.09.  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

the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, any
other obligor on the Securities, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to
any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to
their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the
Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been
instituted.

Section 5.10.  RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

               No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the
Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or
remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or
employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the
concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.11.  DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

               No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any
Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default

of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this
Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to
time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders,
as the case may be.

Section 5.12.  CONTROL BY HOLDERS.

method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy
available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Trustee, PROVIDED that

               (a)  such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of
          law or with this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section
          5.07), expose the Trustee to personal liability, or be unduly
          prejudicial to Holders not joining therein; and

               (b)  subject to the provisions of Section 315 of the Trust
          Indenture Act, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by

Section 5.13.  WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

               The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal

          interest on any Security; or

               (b) in respect of a covenant or a provision hereof which under
          this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of
          the Holder of each Security Outstanding affected by such modification
          or amendment.

               Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any
Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every
purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 5.14.  UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

               All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any
Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any
court may in its discretion require, 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, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party
litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that
such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to
the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant,
but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the
Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in
the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities,
or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security on or after the
respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

Section 5.15.  WAIVER OF STAY, EXTENSION OR USURY LAWS.

               The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever
claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any
usury or other law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force,
which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities contemplated
herein or in the Securities or which may affect the covenants or the performance
of this Indenture; and each of the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully
do so) 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 5.16.  REMEDIES SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW.

               All rights, remedies and powers provided by this Article V may be
exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any
applicable provision of law in the premises, and all the provisions of this
Indenture are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of
law which may be controlling in the premises, including applicable gaming laws,
and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this
Indenture invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or
filed under the provisions of any applicable law.

               therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee

     provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is
     subject to Subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) and (f) of this Section 6.01;

to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation as the parties
shall agree in writing from time to time for all services rendered by it
hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in
regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) and the Company
covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor
Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
incurred or made by or on behalf of the Trustee in accordance with any of the

Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any
claim, loss, liability, tax, assessment or other governmental charge (other than

Section 6.07 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor
Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute an additional
obligation hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this

eligible to act as trustee under Trust Indenture Act Section 3.09(a) and which
shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000, to the
extent there is an institution eligible and willing to serve. If the Trustee
does not have a Corporate Trust Office in The City of New York, the Trustee may
appoint an agent in The City of New York reasonably acceptable to the Company to
conduct any activities which the Trustee may be required under this Indenture to
conduct in The City of New York. If such Trustee publishes reports of condition
at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of federal, state,
territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for
the purposes of this Section 6.09, the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth
in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 6.09, the

<PAGE>

                                      -60-

Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter
specified in this Article.

Section 6.10.  RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE.

               (a)  No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment
     of a successor trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective
     until the acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee under
     Section 6.11.

               (b)  The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed,
     may at any time resign by giving written notice thereof to the Company.
     Upon receiving such notice or resignation, the Company shall promptly
     appoint a successor trustee by written instrument executed by authority of
     the Board of Directors of the Company, a copy of which shall be delivered
     to the resigning Trustee and a copy to the successor trustee. If an
     instrument of acceptance by a successor trustee shall not have been
     delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
     resignation, the resigning Trustee may, or any Holder who has been a bona
     fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself
     and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
     jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may
     thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint and
     prescribe a successor trustee.

               (c)  The Trustee may be removed at any time for any cause or
     for no cause by an Act of the Holders of not less than a majority in
     aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, delivered to the
     Trustee and to the Company.

               (d)  If at any time:

               (i)  the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of
          Trust Indenture Act Section 3.09(b) after written request therefor by
          the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a
          Security for at least six months,

               (ii) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09
          and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company
          or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at
          least six months, or

               (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
          adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of
          its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take
          charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the
          purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee,
or (ii) subject to Section 5.14, the Holder of any Security who has been a bona
fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and
all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such
court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and
prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

                                      -61-

               (e)  If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable
     of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any
     cause, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a
     successor trustee and shall comply with the applicable requirements of
     Section 6.11. If, within 60 days after such resignation, removal or
     incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, the Company has not
     appointed a successor Trustee, a successor trustee shall be appointed by
     the Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
     Securities delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee. Such
     successor trustee so appointed shall forthwith upon its acceptance of such
     appointment become the successor trustee and supersede the successor
     trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor trustee shall have been
     so appointed by the Company or the Holders of the Securities and accepted
     appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, the Trustee or the Holder
     of any Security who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months
     may, subject to Section 5.14, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
     situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment
     of a successor trustee.

               (f)  The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each
     removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor trustee by
     mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid,
     to the Holders of Securities as their names and addresses appear in the
     Security Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor
     trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office or agent hereunder.

Section 6.11.  ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR.

               Every successor trustee appointed hereunder shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument
accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the
retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee as if originally named as
Trustee hereunder; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or
the successor trustee, upon payment of its charges pursuant to Section 6.07 then
unpaid, such retiring Trustee shall pay over to the successor trustee all moneys
at the time held by it hereunder and shall execute and deliver an instrument
transferring to such successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and
obligations. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall
execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and
confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers.

               No successor trustee with respect to the Securities shall accept
appointment as provided in this Section 6.11 unless at the time of such
acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible to act as trustee under the
provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 3.09(a) and this Article VI and shall
have a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 and have a
Corporate Trust Office or an agent selected in accordance with Section 6.10.

               Upon acceptance of appointment by any successor trustee as
provided in this Section 6.11, the Company shall give notice thereof to the
Holders of the Securities, by mailing such notice to such Holders at their
addresses as they shall appear on the Security Register. If the acceptance of
appointment is substantially contemporaneous with the appointment, then the
notice called for by the

<PAGE>

                                      -62-

preceding sentence may be combined with the notice called for by Section 6.10.
If the Company fails to give such notice within 10 days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such
notice to be given at the expense of the Company.

Section 6.12.  MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO BUSINESS.

               Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted
or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust
business of the Trustee (including the trust created by this Indenture) shall be
the successor of the Trustee hereunder, PROVIDED that such corporation shall be
eligible under Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a) and this Article VI and shall
have a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 and have a
Corporate Trust Office or an agent selected in accordance with Section 6.09,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto.

               In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed
to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities 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
Securities so authenticated; and, in case at that time any of the Securities
shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate
such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name
of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificate shall have the
full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided
that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; PROVIDED that the right to adopt
the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate
Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its
successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

Section 6.13.  PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.

               If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the
Company (or other obligor under the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to
the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims
against the Company (or any such other obligor). A Trustee who has resigned or
been removed shall be subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the
extent indicated therein.

such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee,
such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to
such money.

thereof, shall thereupon cease; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or such
Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the
expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The
Wall Street Journal (national edition), and mail to each such Holder, notice

Company or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise assessed or upon the income,
profits or property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries if failure to pay
or discharge the same could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on the ability of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder and
(b) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid, would
by law become a Lien upon the property of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, except for any Lien permitted to be incurred under Section 10.07,
if failure to pay or discharge the same could reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to perform its obligations
hereunder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to pay or
discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or
claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith
by appropriate proceedings properly instituted and diligently conducted and in
respect of which appropriate reserves (in the good faith judgment of management
of the Company) are being maintained in accordance with GAAP.

Section 10.06. MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE.

               The Company shall at all times keep all of its and its
Subsidiaries' properties which are of an insurable nature insured with insurers,
believed by the Company in good faith to be financially sound and responsible,
against loss or damage to the extent that property of similar character is
usually so insured by corporations similarly situated and owning like properties
in the same general geographic areas in which the Company and its Subsidiaries
operate, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to
have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise),
earnings, business affairs or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole.

Section 10.07. LIMITATION ON LIENS.

               (a)  Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary will,
directly or indirectly, create, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind
(i) upon any Principal Property, (ii) upon any shares of Capital Stock of any
Restricted Subsidiary owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or (iii)
securing Debt of any Restricted Subsidiary, without equally and ratably securing
the Securities with (or prior to) the Debt secured by such Lien, for so long as
such Debt shall be so secured, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company and any
Restricted Subsidiary may, directly or indirectly, create, assume or suffer to
exist Permitted Liens.

               (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary may create, assume or suffer to exist Liens not otherwise permitted
as described above, provided that at the time of such incurrence, assumption or
sufferance, after giving effect to such Lien, the sum of outstanding Debt
secured by such Liens (not including Permitted Liens) plus all Attributable Debt
in respect of Sale and Lease-Back Transactions entered into (not including Sale
and Lease-Back Transactions expressly permitted under Section 10.08(a) below),
measured, in each case, at the time the Lien is incurred, does not exceed 15% of
Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

Section 10.08.  LIMITATION ON SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS.

               (a)  Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary will
enter into any arrangement with any lessor (other than the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary), providing for the lease to

<PAGE>

                                      -71-

the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for a period of more than three years
(including renewals at the option of the lessee) of any Principal Property that
has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary to such lessor or to any other Person, and for which funds have been
or are to be advanced by such lessor or other Person on the security of the
leased property (a "Sale and Lease-Back Transaction"), unless either: (i) the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled, pursuant to the
provisions described in clauses (a) through (o) of the definition of "Permitted
Liens" to create, assume or suffer to exist a Lien on the property to be leased
without equally and ratably securing the Securities, or (ii) an amount equal to
(A) the greater of the net cash proceeds of such sale or the fair market value
of such property (in the opinion of the Board of Directors) less (B) the fair
market value (in the opinion of the Board of Directors) of any noncash proceeds
of the sale of such property (provided such noncash proceeds constitute
"Principal Property," acquired on the date the property sold in the Sale and
Lease-Back Transaction was acquired by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries), is applied within 180 days to the retirement or other discharge
of the Securities or Pari Passu Debt.

               (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary may enter into Sale and Lease-Back Transactions not
otherwise permitted as described above, provided that at the time of entering
into such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, after giving effect to such Sale and
Lease-Back Transaction, the sum of outstanding Debt secured by such Liens (not
including Permitted Liens) plus all Attributable Debt in respect of Sale and
Lease-Back Transactions entered into (not including Sale and Lease-Back
Transactions permitted under Section 10.08(a)), measured, in each case, at the
time any such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction is entered into, does not exceed
15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

Section 10.09. RULE 144A INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS.

               So long as any of the Initial Securities remain outstanding, the
Company shall furnish, within a reasonable amount of time, to the Holders or
beneficial owners of Initial Securities and to prospective purchasers of the
Initial Securities the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the
Securities Act, upon their written request, until such time as the Company has

suspension of effectiveness of the shelf registration statement.

               The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with

portion thereof will be issued;

               (e)  that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered
to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price;

               (f)  that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will

               (g)  the names and addresses of the Paying Agent and the
offices or agencies referred to in Section 10.02 where such Securities are to be

Company elects to give notice of redemption, it shall provide the Trustee with a
certificate stating that such notice has been given in compliance with the
requirements of this Section 11.05.

               The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be

the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as a

<PAGE>

                                      -75-

whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the

Section 11.06. DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

               On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit
with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company or any of its

Section 10.03) an amount of money in same day funds sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest
Payment Date or Special Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities or
portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. The Paying Agent shall
promptly mail or deliver to Holders of Securities so redeemed payment in an
amount equal to the Redemption Price of the Securities purchased from each such
Holder. All money, if any, earned on funds held in trust by the Trustee or any
Paying Agent shall be remitted to the Company. For purposes of this Section

(unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and
accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Holders will be
required to surrender the Securities to be redeemed to the Paying Agent at the
address specified in the notice of redemption at least one Business Day prior to
the Redemption Date. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in
accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the
Redemption Price together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or
prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities,
or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such on the relevant
Regular Record Dates and Special Record Dates according to the terms and the
provisions of Section 3.09.

               If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon
surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and premium, if any, shall,
until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by such
Security.

Section 11.08. SECURITIES REDEEMED OR PURCHASED IN PART.

               Any Security which is to be redeemed or purchased only in part in
accordance with Section 11.10 shall be surrendered to the Paying Agent at the
office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02 (with, if
the Company, the Security Registrar or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement
by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the
Security Registrar or the Trustee, as the case may be, duly executed by, the
Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing), and the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the
Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of
any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal
amount

<PAGE>

                                      -76-

Security so surrendered that is not redeemed or purchased.

Section 11.09. MANDATORY DISPOSITION PURSUANT TO GAMING LAWS.

               Each Holder, by accepting a Security, shall be deemed to have
agreed that if the gaming authority of any jurisdiction in which the Company or
any of its subsidiaries conducts or proposes to conduct gaming requires that a
Person who is a Holder or the beneficial owner of Securities be licensed,
qualified or found suitable under applicable gaming laws, such Holder or
beneficial owner, as the case may be, shall apply for a license, qualification
or a finding of suitability within the required time period. If such Person
fails to apply or become licensed or qualified or is found unsuitable, the
Company shall have the right, at its option:

               (a)  to require such Person to dispose of its Securities or
          beneficial interest therein within 30 days of receipt of notice of the
          Company's election or such earlier date as may be requested or
          prescribed by such gaming authority, or

               (b)  to redeem such Securities at a Redemption Price equal to
          the lesser of (i) such Person's cost or (ii) 100% of the principal
          amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to
          the earlier of the Redemption Date or the date of the finding of
          unsuitability, which may be less than 30 days following the notice of
          redemption if so requested or prescribed by the applicable gaming
          authority.

               The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any such
redemption as soon as practicable. The Company shall not be responsible for any
costs or expenses any Holder or beneficial owner may incur in connection with
its application for a license, qualification or a finding or suitability.

Section 11.10. REDEMPTION PROCEDURES.

               Other than as specifically provided in Section 11.10, any
redemption pursuant to Section 11.09 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 11.01 through 11.08 hereof, unless the context otherwise requires.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                                  SUBORDINATION

Section 12.01. SECURITIES SUBORDINATE TO SENIOR DEBT.

               The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security,
by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, for the benefit of the
holders, from time to time, of Senior Debt that, to the extent and in the manner
hereinafter set forth in this Article, the Debt represented by the Securities
and the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on each
and all

<PAGE>

                                      -77-

of the Securities are hereby expressly made subordinate and subject in right of
payment as provided in this Article to the prior payment in full in cash or cash
equivalents of all Senior Debt; provided, however, that the Securities, the Debt
represented thereby and the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on the Securities in all respects shall rank equally with, or prior
to, all existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness (including, without
limitation, Debt) of the Company that is subordinated to Senior Debt.

Section 12.02. PAYMENT OVER OF PROCEEDS UPON DISSOLUTION, ETC.

               In the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or
proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar
case or proceeding in connection therewith, relating to the Company or to its
assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of the Company,
whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or
bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or other
marshaling of assets or liabilities of the Company (except in connection with
the consolidation or merger of the Company or its liquidation or dissolution
following the conveyance, transfer or lease of its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety upon the terms and conditions described under
Article VIII), then and in any event:

               (i)  the holders of Senior Debt will be entitled to receive
          payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all Senior Debt
          (including interest after the commencement of any bankruptcy,
          insolvency or similar proceeding at the rate specified in the
          applicable Senior Debt, whether or not such interest is an allowed
          claim in any such proceeding), or provision shall be made for such
          payment in full, before the Holders of Securities will be entitled to
          receive any payment or distribution of any kind or character (other
          than any payment made pursuant to Article IV from monies or U.S.
          Government Obligations previously deposited with the Trustee) on
          account of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the
          Securities; and

               (ii) any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any
          kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (other than
          payments made pursuant to Article IV from monies or U.S. Government
          Obligations previously deposited with the Trustee), by set-off or
          otherwise, to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would
          be entitled but for the provisions of this Indenture shall be paid by
          the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment
          or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or
          liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of Senior
          Debt or their representative or representatives ratably according to
          the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the Senior Debt
          to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Senior Debt
          remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
          distribution to the holders of such Senior Debt.

               The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the
Company into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company
following the conveyance, transfer or lease of its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to another Person upon the terms and conditions set
forth in Article VIII shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding up,
liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or
marshaling of assets and liabilities of the Company for the

<PAGE>

                                      -78-

purposes of this Section if the Person formed by such consolidation or into
which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance, transfer
or lease such properties and assets substantially as an entirety, as the case
may be, shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or
lease, comply with the conditions set forth in Article VIII.

Section 12.03. SUSPENSION OF PAYMENT WHEN DESIGNATED SENIOR DEBT IN DEFAULT.

               (a)  Upon the occurrence and continuance beyond the applicable
grace period of a Payment Default, no payment or distribution of any assets of
the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities
(other than payments made pursuant to Article IV from monies or U.S. Government
Obligations previously deposited with the Trustee), may be made by or on behalf
of the Company on account of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the
Securities or on account of the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of
Securities until such Payment Default shall have been cured or waived in writing
from any representative of a holder of Designated Senior Debt or shall have
ceased to exist or such Designated Senior Debt shall have been discharged or
paid in full in cash or cash equivalents, after which the Company shall resume
making any and all required payments in respect of the Securities, including any
missed payments.

               (b)  Unless Section 12.02 shall be applicable upon (i) the
occurrence of a Non-Payment Default or (ii) receipt by the Trustee of written
notice thereof from the Company or any representative of a holder of Designated
Senior Debt (a "Payment Blockage Notice"), then no payment or distribution of
any assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities (other than payments made pursuant to Article IV from monies or U.S.
Government Obligations previously deposited with the Trustee), may be made by or
on behalf of the Company on account of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on the Securities or on account of the purchase, redemption or other
acquisition of Securities for a period (a "Payment Blockage Period") commencing
on the date of receipt by the Trustee of a Payment Blockage Notice and shall end
on the earliest of (i) 179 days thereafter (PROVIDED that any Designated Senior
Debt as to which notice was given shall not theretofore have been accelerated,
in which case the provisions of paragraph (a) shall apply), (ii) the date on
which such Non-Payment Default is cured, waived or ceases to exist or such
Designated Senior Debt is discharged or paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents
or (iii) the date on which such Payment Blockage Period shall have been
terminated by written notice to the Trustee or the Company from such
representative initiating such Payment Blockage Period, after which the Company
will resume making any and all required payments in respect of the Securities,
including any missed payments. In any event, no new Payment Blockage Notice may
be delivered unless and until 360 days have elapsed since the effectiveness of
the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice. No Non-Payment Default that
existed or was continuing on the date of the delivery of any Payment Blockage
Notice to the Trustee shall be, or can be made, the basis for the commencement
of a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice, unless such default has been cured or
waived for a period of not less than 180 consecutive days subsequent to the
commencement of such initial Payment Blockage Period.

               In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing and the
provisions of Section 12.02, any payments or distribution shall be made to the
Trustee which is prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section and the
provisions of Section 12.02, then and in such event such payment shall

<PAGE>

be paid over and delivered forthwith by the Trustee to any representative of
holders of Designated Senior Debt, as their interests may appear, for
application to Designated Senior Debt.

Section 12.04. PAYMENT PERMITTED IF NO DEFAULT.

               Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture
or in any of the Securities shall prevent the Company, at any time except during
the pendency of any case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding
up, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other marshaling of assets and
liabilities of the Company referred to in Section 12.02 or under the conditions
described in Section 12.03, from making payments at any time of principal of,
and premium, if any, or interest on the Securities.

Section 12.05. SUBROGATION TO RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF SENIOR DEBT.

               Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Debt, the Holders of
the Securities shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders of all
Pari Passu Debt of the Company) to the rights of the holders of such Senior Debt
to receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities
applicable to the Senior Debt to the extent that distributions otherwise payable
to the holders of the Securities have been applied to the payment of Senior
Debt. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the
holders of Senior Debt of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders
of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of
this Article, and no payments over pursuant to the provisions of this Article to
the holders of Senior Debt by Holders of the Securities or on their behalf or by
the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of
Senior Debt, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment or
distribution by the Company to or on account of the Senior Debt; it being
understood that the provisions of this Article are intended solely for the
purpose of determining the relative rights of the Holders of Securities, on the
one hand, and the holders of Senior Debt, on the other hand.

Section 12.06. PROVISIONS SOLELY TO DEFINE RELATIVE RIGHTS.

               The provisions of this Article are and are intended solely for
the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders on the one hand and
the holders of Senior Debt on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article
or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall (a)
impair, as between the Company and the Holders, the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal of, and
premium, if any, and interest on the Securities as and when the same shall
become due and payable in accordance with their terms; or (b) affect the
relative rights against the Company of the Holders and creditors of the Company
other than the holders of Senior Debt; or (c) prevent the Trustee or any Holder
from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default
under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the
holders of Senior Debt.

Section 12.07. TRUSTEE TO EFFECTUATE SUBORDINATION.

               Each Holder of a Security by its acceptance thereof authorizes
and directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or
appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article and
appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

Section 12.08. NO WAIVER OF SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS.

               (a)  No right of any present or future holder of any Senior
Debt to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be
prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company
or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any
non-compliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this
Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be
otherwise charged with.

               (b)  Without in any way limiting the generality of paragraph
(a) of this Section, the holders of Senior Debt may, at any time and from time
to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders, without
incurring responsibility to the Holders and without impairing or releasing the
subordination provided in this Article or the obligations hereunder of the
Holders to the holders of Senior Debt, do any one or more of the following: (i)
change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of,
or renew or alter, Senior Debt or any instrument evidencing the same or any
agreement under which Senior Debt is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release
or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing
Senior Debt; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of
Senior Debt; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the
Company and any other Person.

Section 12.09. DISTRIBUTION OR NOTICE TO REPRESENTATIVE.

               Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to
holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to the
applicable trustee, agent or representative for the holders of such Senior Debt
(a "Representative").

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

               The Company must promptly notify holders of Senior Debt if
payment of the Securities is accelerated because of an Event of Default.

Section 12.10. NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

               (a)  The Company shall give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any
payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Article or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee
shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would
prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the
Securities, unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice
thereof from the Company, a holder of Senior Debt or from any trustee, fiduciary
or agent therefor; and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the
Trustee, subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust Indenture Act,
shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided,
however, that, if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in
this Section at least three Business Days prior to the date upon which by the
terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including, without
limitation, the payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on
any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to
apply the same to the purpose for which such money was received and shall not be
affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it within three
Business Days prior to such date.

               (b)  Subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust
Indenture Act, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a
written notice by a Person representing itself to be a holder of Senior Debt (or
a trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor) to establish that such notice has been
given by a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor). In
the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is
required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Debt to
participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article, the Trustee
may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of
the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt held by such Person, the extent to
which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and
any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article and,
if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such
Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive
such payment.

Section 12.11. RELIANCE ON JUDICIAL ORDER OR CERTIFICATE OF LIQUIDATING AGENT.

               Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company
referred to in this Article, the Trustee, subject to Sections 315(a) through
315(d) of the Trust Indenture Act, and the Holders of the Securities shall be
entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent
jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation,
reorganization, dissolution, winding up or similar case or proceeding is
pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating
trustee, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person
making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders
of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to
participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Debt and
other Debt of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or
amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to
this Article; provided

<PAGE>

                                      -82-

that such court, trustee, receiver, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person
has been apprised of, or the order, decree or certificate makes reference to,
the provisions of this Article.

Section 12.12. RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE AS A HOLDER OF SENIOR DEBT; PRESERVATION OF
               TRUSTEE'S RIGHTS.

               The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all
the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior Debt which may
at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior
Debt, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its
rights as such holder.

Section 12.13. ARTICLE APPLICABLE TO PAYING AGENTS.

               In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall
have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term
"Trustee" as used in this Article shall in such case (unless the context
otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent
within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent
were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided,
however, that Section 12.12 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of
the Company if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.

Section 12.14. NO SUSPENSION OF REMEDIES.

               If the Company fails to make any payments on the Securities when
due or within any applicable grace period, whether or not on account of the
subordination provisions referred to in this Article XII, such failure would
constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture and would enable the Holders
of the Securities to accelerate the maturity thereof pursuant to Article V.
Nothing contained in this Article shall limit the right of the Trustee or the
Holders of Securities to take any action to accelerate the maturity of the
Securities pursuant to Article V or to pursue any rights or remedies hereunder
or under applicable law, except as provided in Article V.

Section 12.15. TRUST MONEYS NOT SUBORDINATED.

               Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
payments from cash or the proceeds of U.S. Government Securities held in trust
under Article IV hereof by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) and which
were deposited in accordance with the terms of Article IV hereof and not in
violation of Section 12.03 hereof for the payment of principal of (and premium,
if any) and interest on the Securities shall not be subordinated to the prior
payment of any Senior Debt or subject to the restrictions set forth in this
Article XII, and none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any such
amount to the Company or any holder of Senior Debt or any other creditor of the
Company.

Section 12.16. TRUSTEE NOT FIDUCIARY FOR HOLDERS OF SENIOR DEBT.

               The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the
holders of Senior Debt and shall not be liable to any such holders if the
Trustee shall mistakenly, in the absence of

<PAGE>

                                      -83-

gross negligence or willful misconduct, pay over or distribute to Holders of
Securities or to the Company or to any other person cash, property or securities
to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Article
or otherwise. With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes
to perform or to observe only such of its covenants or obligations as are
specifically set forth in this Article and no implied covenants or obligations
with respect to holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against
the Trustee.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and

     payment has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in
     trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged
     from such trust as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the

constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or
instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which the
Company or any Subsidiary is bound.

               Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge hereof, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.06 and, if United
States dollars shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause

rectly from the Company for its own account, (iii) acquired the Exchange

arrangements or understandings with any Person to participate in the Exchange
Offer for the purpose of distributing the Exchange Securities) to transfer such

         In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company shall:

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

                  (b) keep the Exchange Offer open for acceptance for a period
         of not less than 30 calendar days after the date notice thereof is
         mailed to the Holders (or longer if required by applicable law) (such
         period referred to herein as the "Exchange Period");

                  (c) utilize the services of the Depositary for the Exchange
         Offer;

                  (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Registrable Securities
         at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time), on the last business day
         of the Exchange Period, by sending to the institution specified in the
         notice, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting
         forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of Registrable
         Securities delivered for exchange, and a statement that such Holder is
         withdrawing such Holder's election to have such Securities exchanged;

                  (e) notify each Holder that any Registrable Security not
         tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest, but
         will not retain any rights under this Agreement (except in the case of
         the Initial Purchasers and Participating Broker-Dealers as provided
         herein); and

                  (f) otherwise comply in all respects with all applicable laws
         relating to the Exchange Offer.

         If, upon consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Initial Purchasers
hold any Securities acquired by them and having the status of an unsold
allotment in the initial distribution, the Company upon the request of any
Initial Purchaser shall, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange
Securities in the Exchange Offer, issue and deliver to such Initial Purchaser in
exchange (the "Private Exchange") for the Securities held by such Initial
Purchaser, a like principal amount of debt securities of the Company that are
identical in all material respects (except that such securities shall bear
appropriate transfer restrictions) to the Exchange Securities (the "Private
Exchange Securities").

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

         The Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities shall be
issued under (i) the Indenture or (ii) an indenture identical in all material
respects to the Indenture and which, in either case, has been qualified under
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "TIA"), or is exempt from such
qualification, and shall provide that the Exchange Securities shall not be
subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture but that the
Private Exchange Securities shall be subject to such transfer restrictions. The
Indenture or such indenture shall provide that the Exchange Securities, the
Private Exchange Securities and the Securities shall vote and consent together
on all matters as one class and that none of the Exchange Securities, the
Private Exchange Securities or the Securities will have the right to vote or
consent as a separate class on any matter. The Private Exchange Securities shall
be of the same series as, and the Company shall use all commercially reasonable
efforts to have the Private Exchange Securities bear the same CUSIP number as,
the Exchange Securities. The Company shall not have any liability under this
Agreement solely as a result of such Private Exchange Securities not bearing the
same CUSIP number as the Exchange Securities.

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

                  (a) accept for exchange all Registrable Securities duly
         tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer in
         accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
         and the letter of transmittal which shall be an exhibit thereto;

                  (b) accept for exchange all Securities properly tendered
         pursuant to the Private Exchange;

                  (c) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Registrable
         Securities so accepted for exchange; and

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

         Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security will
accrue from the last date on which interest was paid on the Registrable
Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on
the Registrable Securities, from the date of original issuance. The Exchange
Offer and the Private Exchange shall not be subject to any conditions, other
than (i) that the Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, or the making of any
exchange by a Holder, does not violate applicable law or any applicable
interpretation of the staff of the SEC, (ii) the due tendering of Registrable
Securities in accordance with the Exchange Offer and the Private Exchange, (iii)
that each Holder of Registrable Securities exchanged in the Exchange Offer shall
have represented that all Exchange Securities to be re-

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

ceived by it shall be acquired in the ordinary course of its business and that
at the time of the consummation of the Exchange Offer it shall have no
arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution
(within the meaning of the 1933 Act) of the Exchange Securities and shall have
made such other representations as may be reasonably necessary under applicable
SEC rules, regulations or interpretations to render the use of Form S-4 or other
appropriate form under the 1933 Act available and (iv) that no action or
proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in any court or by or before
any governmental agency with respect to the Exchange Offer or the Private
Exchange which, in the Company's judgment, would reasonably be expected to
impair the ability of the Company to proceed with the Exchange Offer or the
Private Exchange. The Company shall inform the Initial Purchasers of the names
and addresses of the Holders to whom the Exchange Offer is made, and the Initial
Purchasers shall have the right to contact such Holders and otherwise facilitate
the tender of Registrable Securities in the Exchange Offer.

         2.2. SHELF REGISTRATION. (i) If, because of any changes in law, SEC
rules or regulations or applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the
SEC, the Company is not permitted to effect the Exchange Offer as contemplated
by Section 2.1 hereof, (ii) if for any other reason the Exchange Offer is not
consummated within 150 days after the original issue of the Registrable
Securities, (iii) upon the request of any of the Initial Purchasers if any such
Initial Purchaser holds Securities acquired as part of an unsold allotment or
(iv) if a Holder is not permitted to participate in the Exchange Offer or does
not receive fully tradeable Exchange Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer,
then in case of each of clauses (i) through (iv) the Company shall, at its cost:

                  (a) As promptly as practicable, file with the SEC, and
         thereafter shall use its best efforts to cause to be declared effective
         as promptly as practicable but no later than 90 days after the original
         issue of the Registrable Securities, a Shelf Registration Statement
         relating to the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities by the
         Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of
         distribution elected by the Majority Holders participating in the Shelf
         Registration and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement.

                  (b) Use its best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration
         Statement continuously effective in order to permit the Prospectus
         forming part thereof to be usable by Holders for a period of two years
         from the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective by
         the SEC (or until one year from the date of the Shelf Registration
         Statement if such Shelf Registration Statement is filed at the request
         of any Initial Purchaser), or for such shorter period that will
         terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf
         Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf
         Registration Statement or cease to be outstanding or otherwise to be
         Registrable Securities (the "Effectiveness Period"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
         that the Effectiveness Period in respect of the Shelf Registration
         Statement shall be extended to the extent required to

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

         permit dealers to comply with the applicable prospectus delivery
         requirements of Rule 174 under the 1933 Act and as otherwise provided
         herein.

                  (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, use its best
         efforts to ensure that (i) any Shelf Registration Statement and any
         amendment thereto and any Prospectus forming part thereof and any
         supplement thereto complies in all material respects with the 1933 Act
         and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Shelf Registration
         Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes
         effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
         state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
         make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any Prospectus
         forming part of any Shelf Registration Statement, and any supplement to
         such Prospectus (as amended or supplemented from time to time), does
         not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
         material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in light of
         the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

         The Company shall not permit any securities other than Registrable
Securities to be included in the Shelf Registration Statement. The Company
further agrees, if necessary, to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration
Statement, as required by Section 3(b) below, and to furnish to the Holders
copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being used or
filed with the SEC.

         2.3. EXPENSES. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in
connection with the registration pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2. Each Holder
shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any,
relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder's Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement.

         2.4. EFFECTIVENESS. (a) The Company will be deemed not to have used its
best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf
Registration Statement, as the case may be, to become, or to remain, effective
during the requisite period if the Company voluntarily takes any action that
would, or omits to take any action which omission would, result in any such
Registration Statement not being declared effective or in the Holders covered
thereby not being able to exchange or offer and sell such Registrable Securities
during that period as and to the extent contemplated hereby, unless such action
is required by applicable law.

              (b) An Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to
Section 2.1 hereof or a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.2
hereof will not be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared
effective by the SEC; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if, after it has been declared
effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to an Exchange Offer
Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement is interfered with by
any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or any other
governmental agency or court, such Registration Statement will be deemed not to
have become effective

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

during the period of such interference, until the offering of Registrable
Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement may legally resume.

         2.5. INTEREST. The Indenture executed in connection with the Securities
will provide that in the event that either (i) the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement is not filed with the SEC on or prior to the 30th calendar day
following the date of original issue of the Securities, (ii) the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement has not been declared effective on or prior to the 120th
calendar day following the date of original issue of the Securities or (iii) the
Exchange Offer is not consummated or, in case of the clauses (i) through (iv) of
Section 2.2, a Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective, in either
case, on or prior to the 150th calendar day following the date of original issue
of the Securities (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (iii)
above, a "Registration Default"), the interest rate borne by the Securities
shall be increased ("Additional Interest") by 0.25% per annum upon the
occurrence of a Registration Default, which rate will increase by 0.25% each
90-day period that such Additional Interest continues to accrue under any such
circumstance, provided that the maximum aggregate increase in the interest rate
will in no event exceed one percent (1%) per annum. Following the cure of all
Registration Defaults (i.e., in the case of (i) above, the filing of the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement, in the case of (ii) above, the
effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and, in the case of
(iii) above, upon the consummation of the Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of
the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be) the accrual of Additional
Interest will cease and the interest rate will revert to the original rate.

         If the Shelf Registration Statement is unusable by the Holders for any
reason, and the aggregate number of days in any consecutive twelve-month period
for which the Shelf Registration Statement shall not be usable exceeds 60 days
in the aggregate, then the interest rate borne by the Securities will be
increased by an absolute amount of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of
the Securities for the first 90-day period (or portion thereof) beginning on the
60th day that such Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be usable, which rate
shall be increased by an additional absolute amount of 0.25% per annum of the
principal amount of the Securities at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day
period, provided that the maximum aggregate increase in the interest rate will
in no event exceed one percent (1%) per annum. Any amounts payable under this
paragraph shall also be deemed "Additional Interest" for purposes of this
Agreement. Upon the Shelf Registration Statement once again becoming usable, the
interest rate borne by the Securities will be reduced to the original interest
rate if and when the Company is otherwise in compliance with this Agreement at
such time. Additional Interest shall be computed based on the actual number of
days elapsed in each 90-day period in which the Shelf Registration Statement is
unusable.

         The Company shall notify the Trustee within three 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"). Additional Interest shall be
paid by depositing with the Trustee, in trust,

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

for the benefit of the Holders, on or before the applicable semiannual interest
payment date, immediately available funds in sums sufficient to pay the
Additional Interest then due. The Additional Interest due shall be payable on
each interest payment date to the Holder of Securities entitled to receive the
interest payment to be paid on such date as set forth in the Indenture. Each
obligation to pay Additional Interest shall be deemed to accrue from and
including the day following the applicable Event Date.

         3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

         hereof;

                  (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
         post-effective amendments to each Registration Statement as may be
         necessary under applicable law to keep such Registration Statement
         effective for the applicable period; and cause each Prospectus to be
         supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so
         supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provision
         then in force) under the 1933 Act and comply with the provisions of the
         1933 Act, the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder
         applicable to them with respect to the disposition of all securities

         accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the
         selling Holders thereof (including sales by any Participating
         Broker-Dealer);

                  (c) in the case of a Shelf Registration, (i) notify each
         Holder of Registrable Securities, at least three business days prior to
         filing, that a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to the
         Registrable Securities is being filed and advising such Holders that
         the distribution of Registrable Securities will be made in accordance
         with the method selected by the Majority Holders participating in the
         Shelf Registration; (ii) furnish to each Holder of Registrable
         Securities and to each underwriter of an underwritten offering of
         Registrable Securities, if any, without charge, as many copies of each
         Prospectus, including each preliminary Prospectus, and any amendment or
         supplement thereto and such other documents as such Holder or
         underwriter may rea-

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

         sonably request, including financial statements and schedules and, if
         the Holder so requests, all exhibits in order to facilitate the public
         sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities; and (iii)
         hereby consent to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or
         supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with
         the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the
         Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto;

                  (d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the
         Registrable Securities under all applicable state securities or "blue
         sky" laws of such jurisdictions as any Holder of Registrable Securities
         covered by a Registration Statement and each underwriter of an
         underwritten offering of Registrable Securities shall reasonably
         request by the time the applicable Registration Statement is declared
         effective by the SEC, and do any and all other acts and things which
         may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each such Holder and
         underwriter to consummate the disposition in each such jurisdiction of
         such Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
         that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign
         corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it
         would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d),
         or (ii) take any action which would subject it to general service of
         process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
         subject;

                  (e) notify promptly each Holder of Registrable Securities
         under a Shelf Registration or any Participating Broker-Dealer who has
         notified the Company that it is utilizing the Exchange Offer
         Registration Statement as provided in paragraph (f) below and, if
         requested by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, confirm such
         advice in writing promptly (i) when a Registration Statement has become
         effective and when any post-effective amendments and supplements
         thereto become effective, (ii) of any request by the SEC or any state
         securities authority for post-effective amendments and supplements to a
         Registration Statement and Prospectus or for additional information
         after the Registration Statement has become effective, (iii) of the
         issuance by the SEC or any state securities authority of any stop order
         suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the
         initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iv) in the case of a
         Shelf Registration, if, between the effective date of a Registration
         Statement and the closing of any sale of Registrable Securities covered
         thereby, the representations and warranties of the Company contained in
         any underwriting agreement, securities sales agreement or other similar
         agreement, if any, relating to the offering cease to be true and
         correct in all material respects, (v) of the happening of any event or
         the discovery of any facts during the period a Shelf Registration
         Statement is effective which makes any statement made in such
         Registration Statement or the related Prospectus untrue in any material
         respect or which requires the making of any changes in such
         Registration Statement or Prospectus in order to make the statements
         therein not misleading, (vi) of the receipt by the Company of any
         notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the
         Registrable Securities or the Exchange Secu-

         rities, as the case may be, for sale in any jurisdiction or the
         initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and (vii)
         of any determination by the Company that a post-effective amendment to
         such Registration Statement would be appropriate;

                  (f) (i) in the case of the Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement (A) include in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a
         section entitled "Plan of Distribution" which section shall be
         reasonably acceptable to Merrill Lynch on behalf of the Participating
         Broker-Dealers, and which shall contain a summary statement of the
         positions taken or policies made by the staff of the SEC with respect
         to the potential "underwriter" status of any broker-dealer that holds
         Registrable Securities acquired for its own account as a result of
         market-making activities or other trading activities and that will be
         the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act) of
         Exchange Securities to be received by such broker-dealer in the
         Exchange Offer, whether such positions or policies have been publicly
         disseminated by the staff of the SEC or such positions or policies, in
         the reasonable judgment of Merrill Lynch on behalf of the Participating
         Broker-Dealers and its counsel, represent the prevailing views of the
         staff of the SEC, including a statement that any such broker-dealer who
         receives Exchange Securities for Registrable Securities pursuant to the
         Exchange Offer may be deemed a statutory underwriter and must deliver a
         prospectus meeting the requirements of the 1933 Act in connection with
         any resale of such Exchange Securities, (B) furnish to each
         Participating Broker-Dealer who has delivered to the Company the notice
         referred to in Section 3(e), without charge, as many copies of each
         Prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement,
         including any preliminary prospectus, and any amendment or supplement
         thereto, as such Participating Broker-Dealer may reasonably request,
         (C) hereby consent to the use of the Prospectus forming part of the
         Exchange Offer Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement
         thereto, by any Person subject to the prospectus delivery requirements
         of the SEC, including all Participating Broker-Dealers, in connection
         with the sale or transfer of the Exchange Securities covered by the
         Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, and (D) include in
         the transmittal letter or similar documentation to be executed by an
         exchange offeree in order to participate in the Exchange Offer (x) the
         following provision:

         "If the exchange offeree is a broker-dealer holding Registrable
         Securities acquired for its own account as a result of market-making
         activities or other trading activities, it will deliver a prospectus
         meeting the requirements of the 1933 Act in connection with any resale
         of Exchange Securities received in respect of such Registrable
         Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer;"

         and (y) a statement to the effect that by a broker-dealer making the
         acknowledgment described in clause (x) and by delivering a Prospectus
         in connection with the exchange of Registrable Securities, the
         broker-dealer will not be

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

         deemed to admit that it is an underwriter within the meaning of the
         1933 Act; and (ii) in the case of any Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement, the Company agrees to deliver to the Initial Purchasers on
         behalf of any Participating Broker-Dealers upon the effectiveness of
         the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (A) an opinion of counsel to
         the Company that such counsel has participated in conferences with
         officers and other representatives of the Company, counsel for the
         Initial Purchasers, representatives of the independent public
         accountants for the Company, and that such counsel advises that, on the
         basis of the foregoing, no facts came to such counsel's attention that
         caused such counsel to believe that either the Exchange Offer
         Registration Statement, as of its date, or the Prospectus or any
         amendment or supplement thereto, at the time the Prospectus was issued,
         at the time any such amended or supplemented Prospectus was issued or
         at the consummation of the Exchange Offer, contained an untrue
         statement of a material fact or omitted 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, with customary exceptions, (B) officers' certificates
         substantially in the form customarily delivered in a public offering of
         debt securities and (C) a comfort letter or comfort letters in
         customary form to the extent permitted by Statement on Auditing
         Standards No. 72 of the American Institute of Certified Public
         Accountants (or if such a comfort letter is not permitted, an agreed
         upon procedures letter in customary form) from the Company's
         independent certified public accountants (and, if necessary, any other
         independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the
         Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial
         statements are, or are required to be, included in the Registration
         Statement) at least as broad in scope and coverage as the comfort
         letter or comfort letters delivered to the Initial Purchasers in
         connection with the initial sale of the Securities to the Initial
         Purchasers;

                  (g) (i) in the case of an Exchange Offer, furnish counsel for
         the Initial Purchasers and (ii) in the case of a Shelf Registration,
         furnish counsel for the Holders copies of any comment letters received
         from the SEC or any other request by the SEC or any state securities
         authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement and
         Prospectus or for additional information;

                  (h) make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of
         any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement at
         the earliest possible moment;

                  (i) in the case of a Shelf Registration, furnish to each
         Holder of Registrable Securities, and each underwriter, if any, without
         charge, at least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and
         any post-effective amendment thereto, in-

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

         cluding financial statements and schedules (without documents
         incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits thereto, unless
         requested);

                  (j) in the case of a Shelf Registration, cooperate with the
         selling Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
         certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not
         bearing any restrictive legends; and enable such Registrable Securities
         to be in such denominations (consistent with the provisions of the
         Indenture) and registered in such names as the selling Holders or the
         underwriters, if any, may reasonably request at least three business
         days prior to the closing of any sale of Registrable Securities;

                  (k) in the case of a Shelf Registration, upon the occurrence
         of any event or the discovery of any facts, each as contemplated by
         Sections 3(e)(v) and 3(e)(vi) hereof, as promptly as practicable after
         the occurrence of such an event, use its best efforts to prepare a
         supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or
         the related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by
         reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter
         delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities or
         Participating Broker-Dealers, such Prospectus will not contain at the
         time of such delivery any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
         to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in
         light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading
         or will remain so qualified. At such time as such public disclosure is
         otherwise made or the Company determines that such disclosure is not
         necessary, in each case to correct any misstatement of a material fact
         or to include any omitted material fact, the Company agrees promptly to
         notify each Holder of such determination and to furnish each Holder
         such number of copies of the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, as
         such Holder may reasonably request;

                  (l) in the case of a Shelf Registration, a reasonable time
         prior to the filing of any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, any
         amendment to a Registration Statement or amendment or supplement to a
         Prospectus or any document which is to be incorporated by reference
         into a Registration Statement or a Prospectus after initial filing of a
         Registration Statement, provide copies of such document to the Initial
         Purchasers on behalf of such Holders; and make representatives of the
         Company as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, or the Initial
         Purchasers on behalf of such Holders, available for discussion of such
         document;

                  (m) obtain a CUSIP number for all Exchange Securities, Private
         Exchange Securities or Registrable Securities, as the case may be, not
         later than the effective date of a Registration Statement, and provide
         the Trustee with printed certificates for the Exchange Securities,
         Private Exchange Securities or the Registrable Securities, as the case
         may be, in a form eligible for deposit with the Depositary;

                  (n) (i) cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA in
         connection with the registration of the Exchange Securities or
         Registrable Securities, as the case may be, (ii) cooperate with the
         Trustee and the Holders to effect such changes to the Indenture as may
         be required for the Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the
         terms of the TIA and (iii) execute, and use its best efforts to cause
         the 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 SEC to enable the Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner;

                  (o) in the case of a Shelf Registration, enter into agreements
         (including underwriting agreements) and take all other customary and
         appropriate actions in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition
         of such Registrable Securities and in such connection whether or not an
         underwriting agreement is entered into and whether or not the
         registration is an underwritten registration:

                           (i) make such representations and warranties to the
                  Holders of such Registrable Securities and the underwriters,
                  if any, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made
                  by issuers to underwriters in similar underwritten offerings
                  as may be reasonably requested by them;

                           (ii) obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and
                  updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope
                  and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
                  managing underwriters, if any, and the holders of a majority
                  in principal amount of the Registrable Securities being sold)
                  addressed to each selling Holder and the underwriters, if any,
                  covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested
                  in sales of securities or underwritten offerings and such
                  other matters as may be reasonably requested by such Holders
                  and underwriters;

                           (iii) obtain "cold comfort" letters and updates
                  thereof from the Company's independent certified public
                  accountants (and, if necessary, any other independent
                  certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Company
                  or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial
                  statements are, or are required to be, included in the
                  Registration Statement) addressed to the underwriters, if any,
                  and use reasonable efforts to have such letter addressed to
                  the selling Holders (to the extent consistent with Statement
                  on Auditing Standards No. 72 of the American Institute of
                  Certified Public Accountants), such letters to be in customary
                  form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in
                  "cold comfort" letters to underwriters in connection with
                  similar underwritten offerings;

                           (iv) enter into a securities sales agreement with the
                  Holders and an agent of the Holders providing for, among other
                  things, the appointment of

                                      -15-

                  such agent for the selling Holders for the purpose of
                  soliciting purchases of Registrable Securities, which
                  agreement shall be in form, substance and scope customary for
                  similar offerings;

                           (v) if an underwriting agreement is entered into,
                  cause the same to set forth indemnification provisions and
                  procedures substantially equivalent to the indemnification
                  provisions and procedures set forth in Section 4 hereof with
                  respect to the underwriters and all other parties to be
                  indemnified pursuant to said Section or, at the request of any
                  underwriters, in the form customarily provided to such
                  underwriters in similar types of transactions; and

                           (vi) deliver such documents and certificates as may
                  be reasonably requested and as are customarily delivered in
                  similar offerings to the Holders of a majority in principal
                  amount of the Registrable Securities being sold and the
                  managing underwriters, if any.

         The above shall be done at (i) the effectiveness of such Registration
         Statement (and each post-effective amendment thereto) and (ii) each
         closing under any underwriting or similar agreement as and to the
         extent required thereunder;

                  (p) in the case of a Shelf Registration or if a Prospectus is
         required to be delivered by any Participating Broker-Dealer in the case
         of an Exchange Offer, make available for inspection by representatives
         of the Holders, any underwriters participating in any disposition
         pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, any Participating
         Broker-Dealer and any counsel or accountant retained by any of the
         foregoing, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate
         documents and properties of the Company reasonably requested by any
         such persons, and cause the respective officers, directors, employees,
         and any other agents of the Company to supply all information
         reasonably requested by any such representative, underwriter, special
         counsel or accountant in connection with a Registration Statement, and
         make such representatives of the Company available for discussion of
         such documents as shall be reasonably requested by the Initial
         Purchasers;

                  (q) (i) in the case of an Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement, a reasonable time prior to the filing of any Exchange Offer
         Registration Statement, any Prospectus forming a part thereof, any
         amendment to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or amendment or
         supplement to such Prospectus, provide copies of such document to the
         Initial Purchasers and to counsel to the Holders and make such changes
         in any such document prior to the filing thereof as the Initial
         Purchasers or counsel to the Holders may reasonably request and, except
         as otherwise required by applicable law, not file any such document in
         a form to which the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Hold-

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

         ers and counsel to the Holders shall not have previously been advised
         and furnished a copy of or to which the Initial Purchasers on behalf of
         the Holders or counsel to the Holders shall reasonably object, and make
         the representatives of the Company available for discussion of such
         documents as shall be reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers;
         and (ii) in the case of a Shelf Registration, a reasonable time prior
         to filing any Shelf Registration Statement, any Prospectus forming a
         part thereof, any amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or
         amendment or supplement to such Prospectus, provide copies of such
         document to the Holders, to the Initial Purchasers, to counsel for the
         Holders and to the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten
         offering of Registrable Securities, if any, make such changes in any
         such document prior to the filing thereof as the Initial Purchasers,
         the counsel to the Holders or the underwriter or underwriters
         reasonably request and not file any such document in a form to which
         the Majority Holders, the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Holders,
         counsel for the Holders or any underwriter shall not have previously
         been advised and furnished a copy of or to which the Majority Holders,
         the Initial Purchasers of behalf of the Holders, counsel to the Holders
         or any underwriter shall reasonably object, and make the
         representatives of the Company available for discussion of such
         document as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, the Initial
         Purchasers on behalf of such Holders, counsel for the Holders or any
         underwriter;

                  (r) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use its best efforts
         to cause all Registrable Securities to be listed on any securities
         exchange on which similar debt securities issued by the Company are
         then listed if requested by the Majority Holders, or if requested by
         the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of
         Registrable Securities, if any;

                  (s) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use its best efforts
         to cause the Registrable Securities to be rated by the appropriate
         rating agencies, if so requested by the Majority Holders, or if
         requested by the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten
         offering of Registrable Securities, if any;

                  (t) otherwise comply with all applicable rules and regulations
         of the SEC and make available to its security holders, as soon as
         reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering at least 12
         months which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933
         Act and Rule 158 thereunder;

                  (u) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made
         with the NASD and, in the case of a Shelf Registration, in the
         performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter and
         its counsel (including any "qualified independent underwriter" that is
         required to be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of
         the NASD); and

                  (v) upon consummation of an Exchange Offer or a Private
         Exchange, obtain a customary opinion of counsel to the Company
         addressed to the Trustee for the benefit of all Holders participating
         in the Exchange Offer or Private Exchange, which

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

         includes an opinion that (i) the Company has duly authorized, executed
         and delivered the Exchange Securities and/or Private Exchange
         Securities, as applicable, and the related indenture, and (ii) each of
         the Exchange Securities and related indenture constitute a legal, valid
         and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company
         in accordance with its respective terms (with customary exceptions).

         In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company may (as a
condition to such Holder's participation in the Shelf Registration) require each
Holder of Registrable Securities to furnish to the Company such information
regarding the Holder and the proposed distribution by such Holder of such
Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request
in writing.

         In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder agrees that,
upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event or the
discovery of any facts, each of the kind described in Section 3(e)(v) hereof,
such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement until such Holder's receipt of the copies
of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(k) hereof,
and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder will deliver to the Company (at
its expense) all copies in such Holder's possession, other than permanent file
copies then in such Holder's possession, of the Prospectus covering such
Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

         If any of the Registrable Securities covered by any Shelf Registration
Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the underwriter or
underwriters and manager or managers that will manage such offering will be
selected by the Majority Holders included in such offering and shall be
acceptable to the Company. No Holder of Registrable Securities may participate
in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell
such Holder's Registrable Securities 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.

         4. INDEMNIFICATION; CONTRIBUTION.

                  (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
         Initial Purchasers, each Holder, each Participating Broker-Dealer, each
         Person who participates as an underwriter (any such Person being an
         "Underwriter") and each Person, if any, who controls any Holder or
         Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section
         20 of the 1934 Act as follows:

                           (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim,
                  damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any
                  untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
                  fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any

                                      -18-
<PAGE>

                  amendment or supplement thereto) pursuant to which Exchange
                  Securities or Registrable Securities were registered under the
                  1933 Act, including all documents incorporated therein by
                  reference, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a
                  material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
                  make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of
                  any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
                  fact contained in any Prospectus (or any amendment or
                  supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission
                  therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the
                  statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
                  which they were made, not misleading;

                           (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim,
                  damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of
                  the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or
                  any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
                  body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever
                  based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such
                  alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject
                  to Section 4(d) below) any such settlement is effected with
                  the written consent of the Company; and

                           (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as
                  incurred (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of
                  counsel chosen by any indemnified party), reasonably incurred
                  in investigating, preparing or defending against any
                  litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any
                  governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any
                  claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or
                  omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to
                  the extent that any such expense is not paid under
                  subparagraph (i) or (ii) above; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this
                  indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability,
                  claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any
                  untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
                  omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
                  information furnished to the Company by the Holder or
                  Underwriter expressly for use in a Registration Statement (or
                  any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus (or any amendment or
                  supplement thereto).

                  (b) Each Holder, severally, but not jointly, agrees to
         indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Initial Purchasers, each
         Underwriter and the other selling Holders, and each of their respective
         directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who controls the
         Company, the Initial Purchasers, any Underwriter or any other selling
         Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20
         of the 1934 Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and
         expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 4(a) hereof, as
         incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or
         alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Shelf Registration
         Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus included therein

                                      -19-
<PAGE>

         (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in
         conformity with written information with respect to such Holder
         furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use in the Shelf
         Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such Prospectus
         (or any amendment or supplement thereto); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no
         such Holder shall be liable for any claims hereunder in excess of the
         amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of
         Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement.

                  (c) Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as
         reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action or
         proceeding commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be
         sought hereunder, but failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall
         not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the
         extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any
         event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have
         otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. An indemnifying
         party may participate at its own expense in the defense of such action;
         provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not
         (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to
         the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying party or
         parties be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel
         (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for
         all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate
         but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of
         the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party
         shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties,
         settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with
         respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any
         governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim
         whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be
         sought under this Section 4 (whether or not the indemnified parties are
         actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement,
         compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each
         indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation,
         investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a
         statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to
         act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

                  (d) If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested
         an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and
         expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be
         liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section
         4(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is
         entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party
         of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have
         received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior
         to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party
         shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with
         such request prior to the date of such settlement.

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

                  (e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4 is
         for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an
         indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims,
         damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party
         shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities,
         claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as
         incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
         fault of the Company on the one hand and the Holders and the Initial
         Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or
         omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages
         or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

         The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Holders and
the Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates
to information supplied by the Company, the Holders or the Initial Purchasers
and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

         The Company, the Holders and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would
not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4 were
determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated
as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does
not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this
Section 4. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and
expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section
4 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

         Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4, no Initial Purchaser
shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total price at which the Securities sold by it were offered exceeds the amount
of any damages which such Initial Purchaser 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 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

         For purposes of this Section 4, each Person, if any, who controls an
Initial Purchaser or Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or
Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such
Initial Purchaser or Holder, and each director of the Company, and each Person,
if any, who controls the Company within the meaning

                                      -21-
<PAGE>

of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same
rights to contribution as the Company. The Initial Purchasers' respective
obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion
to the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names
in Schedule A to the Purchase Agreement and not joint.

         5.       MISCELLANEOUS.

         5.1. RULE 144 AND RULE 144A. For so long as the Company is subject to
the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15 of the 1934 Act, the Company
covenants that it will file the reports required to be filed by it under the
1933 Act and Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and
regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder. If the Company ceases to be so
required to file such reports, the Company covenants that it will upon the
request of any Holder of Registrable Securities (a) make publicly available such
information as is necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933
Act, (b) deliver such information to a prospective purchaser as is necessary to
permit sales pursuant to Rule 144A under the 1933 Act and it will take such
further action as any Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request,
and (c) take such further action that is reasonable in the circumstances, in
each case, to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to
sell its Registrable Securities without registration under the 1933 Act within
the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, as
such Rule may be amended from time to time, (ii) Rule 144A under the 1933 Act,
as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or (iii) any similar rules or
regulations hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any Holder of
Registrable Securities, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written
statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

         5.2. NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. The Company has not entered into and
the Company will not after the date of this Agreement enter into any agreement
which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement
or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights granted to the
Holders hereunder do not and will not for the term of this Agreement in any way
conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the Company's other issued
and outstanding securities under any such agreements.

         5.3. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. The provisions of this Agreement,
including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or
supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof
may not be given unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders
of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Registrable Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement,
waiver or departure.

         5.4. NOTICES. All notices and other communications provided for or
permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, registered
first-class mail, telex, telecopier, or any courier guaranteeing overnight
delivery (a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to
the Company by means of a notice given in accordance with

                                      -22-
<PAGE>

the provisions of this Section 5.4, which address initially is the address set
forth in the Purchase Agreement with respect to the Initial Purchasers; and (b)
if to the Company, initially at the Company's address set forth in the Purchase
Agreement, and thereafter at such other address of which notice is given in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4.

         All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly
given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; two business days
after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when answered
back, if telexed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and on the next
business day if timely delivered to an air courier guaranteeing overnight
delivery.

         Copies of all such notices, demands, or other communications shall be
concurrently delivered by the person giving the same to the Trustee under the
Indenture, at the address specified in such Indenture.

         5.5. SUCCESSOR AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the successors, assigns and transferees of each of the
parties, including, without limitation and without the need for an express
assignment, subsequent Holders; PROVIDED that nothing herein shall be deemed to
permit any assignment, transfer or other disposition of Registrable Securities
in violation of the terms of the Purchase Agreement or the Indenture. If any
transferee of any Holder shall acquire Registrable Securities, in any manner,
whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Registrable Securities shall be
held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding
such Registrable Securities such person shall be conclusively deemed to have
agreed to be bound by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement, including the restrictions on resale set forth in this Agreement and,
if applicable, the Purchase Agreement, and such person shall be entitled to
receive the benefits hereof.

         5.6. THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. The Initial Purchasers (even if the
Initial Purchasers are not Holders) shall be third party beneficiaries to the
agreements made hereunder between the Company, on the one hand, and the Holders,
on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly
to the extent they deem such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect their
rights or the rights of Holders hereunder. Each Holder of Registrable Securities
shall be a third party beneficiary to the agreements made hereunder between the
Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and
shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems
such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights hereunder.

         5.7. SPECIFIC ENFORCEMENT. Without limiting the remedies available to
the Initial Purchasers and the Holders, the Company acknowledges that any
failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under Sections 2.1 through
2.4 hereof may result in material irreparable injury to the Initial Purchasers
or the Holders for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it would not
be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that,

                                      -23-
<PAGE>

in the event of any such failure, the Initial Purchasers or any Holder may
obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Company's
obligations under Sections 2.1 through 2.4 hereof.

         5.8. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which
when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

         5.9. HEADINGS. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

         5.10. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO THE
PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS THEREOF.

         5.11. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any one or more of the provisions
contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions
contained herein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.
