the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance

any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis
shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness
during the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be
determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a

based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional
rate chosen as the Company may designate.

                                    THE NOTES

SECTION 2.01 Form and Dating.

      (a)   General. The Notes and the Trustee's certificate of authentication
shall be substantially in the form of Exhibits A1 or A2 attached hereto. The
Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock
exchange rule or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement
required by usage is in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company). Each Note
shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in
denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.

      The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are
hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuers, the Guarantors
and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly
agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the
extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this

thereto). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A1 attached hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and
without the "Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note" attached
thereto). Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as
shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the
aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed
thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented
thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to
reflect exchanges, repurchases, and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global
Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the
Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with
instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof and
shall be made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary.

      (c)   Temporary Global Notes. Notes offered and sold in reliance on

the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of

                                       33

<PAGE>

Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuers and authenticated by the
Trustee as hereinafter provided. The Restricted Period shall be terminated upon
the receipt by the Trustee of:

            (1) a written certificate from the Depositary, together with copies
      of certificates from Euroclear and Clearstream certifying that they have
      received certification of non-United States beneficial ownership of 100%
      of the aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global
      Note (except to the extent of any beneficial owners thereof who acquired
      an interest therein during the Restricted Period pursuant to another
      exemption from registration under the Securities Act and who shall take
      delivery of a beneficial ownership interest in a 144A Global Note bearing
      a Private Placement Legend, all as contemplated by Section 2.06(b)
      hereof); and

            (2) an Officer's Certificate from the Issuers.

      Following the termination of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests
in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note shall be exchanged for beneficial
interests in Regulation S Permanent Global Note pursuant to the Applicable
Procedures. Simultaneously with the authentication of Regulation S Permanent
Global Note, the Trustee shall cancel the Regulation S Temporary Global Note.
The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the
Regulation S Permanent Global Note may from time to time be increased or
decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary
or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as
hereinafter provided.

      (d)   Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of
the "Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System" and "Terms and Conditions
Governing Use of Euroclear" and the "General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream
Banking" and "Customer Handbook" of Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers
of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the
Regulation S Permanent Global Notes that are held by Participants through
Euroclear or Clearstream.

SECTION 2.02 Execution and Authentication.

      At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Issuers by manual or
facsimile signature.

      If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at
the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

      A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of
the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been
duly authenticated under this Indenture.

      The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver: (i) on the Issue Date, an
aggregate principal amount of $475.0 million 8 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes
due 2014, (ii) Additional Notes for an original issue in an aggregate principal
amount specified in an Authentication Order pursuant to this Section 2.02 and
(iii) Exchange Notes for issue only in an Exchange Offer pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement, for a like principal amount of Initial Notes or
Additional Notes, in each case upon a written order of the Issuers signed by one
Officer (an "Authentication

                                       34

<PAGE>

Order"). Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be
authenticated and the date on which the original issue of the Notes is to be
authenticated.

      The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company
to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever
the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the
Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the
same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuers.

SECTION 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent.

      The Issuers shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be
presented for registration of transfer or for exchange ("Registrar") and an
office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment ("Paying Agent"). The
Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange.
The Issuers may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional
paying agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term
"Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent. The Issuers may change any
Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuers shall notify
the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this
Indenture. If the Issuers fail to appoint or maintain another entity as
Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of
its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

      The Issuers initially appoint The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") to act
as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

      The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee to act as the Registrar and
Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

SECTION 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

      The Issuers shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of
Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of
principal, premium or Special Interest, if any, or interest on the Notes, and
shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such
payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require in writing a
Paying Agent to pay all money held by it in trust to the Trustee. The Issuers at
any time may require in writing a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it in
trust to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if
other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the
money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate
and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held
by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings
relating to the Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

SECTION 2.05 Holder Lists.

      The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably
practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of
all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee
is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee at

                                       35

<PAGE>

least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other
times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such
date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the
Holders and the Issuers shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).

SECTION 2.06 Transfer and Exchange.

      (a)   Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be
transferred except in whole (but not in part) by the Depositary to a nominee of
the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another
nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a
successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes
shall be exchanged by the Issuers for Definitive Notes if:

            (1) the Depository (a) notifies the Issuers that it is unwilling or
      unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Notes or (b) has ceased to
      be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either
      case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuers within 120
      days after the date of such notice from the Depositary;

            (2) the Issuers in their sole discretion determine that the Global
      Notes (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes
      and deliver a written notice to such effect to the Trustee; provided that
      in no event shall the Regulation S Temporary Global Note be exchanged by
      the Issuers for Definitive Notes prior to (x) the expiration of the
      Restricted Period and (y) the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates
      required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act; or

            (3) there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default with
      respect to the Notes.

      Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (1), (2) or (3)
above, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall
instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole
or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note
authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any
portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof,
shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global
Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided
in this Section 2.06(a); however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be
transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(b), (c) or (f) hereof.

      (b)   Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes.
The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be
effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted
Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those
set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of
beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require compliance with
either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of
the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

            (1) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note.
      Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to
      Persons who take delivery thereof in

                                       36

<PAGE>

      the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in
      accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private
      Placement Legend; provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the
      Restricted Period, transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S
      Temporary Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account
      or benefit of a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser). Beneficial
      interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons
      who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an
      Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be
      required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers
      described in this Section 2.06(b)(1).

            (2) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in
      Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial
      interests that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(1) above, the transferor
      of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either:

                  (A) both:

                        (i)   a written order from a Participant or an Indirect
                  Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the
                  Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or
                  cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global
                  Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be
                  transferred or exchanged; and

                        (ii)  instructions given in accordance with the
                  Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the
                  Participant account to be credited with such increase; or

                  (B) both:

                        (i)   a written order from a Participant or an Indirect
                  Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the
                  Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be
                  issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the beneficial
                  interest to be transferred or exchanged; and

                        (ii)  instructions given by the Depositary to the
                  Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose
                  name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the
                  transfer or exchange referred to in clause (i) above; provided
                  that in no event shall Definitive Notes be issued upon the
                  transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in the Regulation
                  S Temporary Global Note prior to (A) the expiration of the
                  Restricted Period and (B) the receipt by the Registrar of any
                  certificates required pursuant to Rule 903 under the
                  Securities Act.

            Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer by the Issuers in accordance
            with Section 2.06(f) hereof, the requirements of this Section
            2.06(b)(2) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt by
            the Registrar of the instructions contained in the Letter of
            Transmittal delivered by the holder of such beneficial interests in
            the Restricted Global Notes.

                                       37

<PAGE>

            Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or
            exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this
            Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities
            Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant
            Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.06(h) hereof.

            (3) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global
      Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be
      transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a
      beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer
      complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2) above and the
      Registrar receives the following:

                        (A) if the transferee shall take delivery in the form of
                  a beneficial interest in the 144A Global Note, then the
                  transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B
                  hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; and

                        (B) if the transferee shall take delivery in the form of

                  transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B
                  hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof.

            (4) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted
      Global Note for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note. A
      beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any
      holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or
      transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a
      beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or
      transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2) above and:

                  the Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights
                  Agreement and the holder of the beneficial interest to be
                  transferred, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in
                  the case of a transfer, certifies in the applicable Letter of
                  Transmittal that it is not (i) a Broker-Dealer, (ii) a Person
                  participating in the distribution of the Exchange Notes or
                  (iii) a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144) of
                  the Company;

                        (B) such transfer is effected pursuant to the Shelf
                  Registration Statement in accordance with the Registration
                  Rights Agreement;

                        (C) such transfer is effected by a Broker-Dealer
                  pursuant to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement in
                  accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement; or

                        (D) the Registrar receives the following:

                                (i)     if the holder of such beneficial
                        interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to
                        exchange such beneficial interest for a beneficial
                        interest in an Unrestricted Global Note, a certificate
                        from such holder in the form of Exhibit C hereto,
                        including the certifications in item (1)(a) thereof; or

                                       38

<PAGE>

                                (ii)    if the holder of such beneficial
                        interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to
                        transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who shall
                        take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial
                        interest in an Unrestricted Global Note, a certificate
                        from such holder in the form of Exhibit B hereto,
                        including the certifications in item (4) thereof;

                  and, in each such case set forth in this subparagraph (D), if
                  the Registrar so requests or if the Applicable Procedures so
                  require, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable
                  to the Registrar to the effect that such exchange or transfer
                  is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the
                  restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private
                  Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain
                  compliance with the Securities Act.

      If any such transfer is effected pursuant to subparagraph (B) or (D) above
at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuers
shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with
Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted
Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal
amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to subparagraph (B) or (D)
above.

      Beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note cannot be exchanged
for, or transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of, a
beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note.

      (c)   Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests for Definitive Notes.

            (1) Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Notes to Restricted
      Definitive Notes. If any holder of a beneficial interest in a Restricted
      Global Note proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Restricted
      Definitive Note or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who
      takes delivery thereof in the form of a Restricted Definitive Note, then,
      upon receipt by the Registrar of the following documentation:

                  (A) if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted

Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or
canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or
retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At
any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note

the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive
Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be
reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the

      Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance
      with Section 2.02 or at the Registrar's request.

            (2) No service charge shall be made to a Holder of a beneficial
      interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any
      registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuers may require payment
      of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental
      charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes
      or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant
      to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.06 hereof).

            (3) The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of
      or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part,
      except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

                                       48
<PAGE>

            (4) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any
      registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes
      shall be the valid obligations of the Issuers, evidencing the same debt,
      and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global
      Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer
      or exchange.

            (5) The Issuers shall not be required:

                  (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any
            Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days
            before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under
            Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day
            of selection;

                  (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note
            selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
            portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or

                  (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between
            a record date and the next succeeding interest payment date.

            (6) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of
      any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuers may deem and treat the
      Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such
      Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on
      such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent
      or the Issuers shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

      effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by

SECTION 2.07 Replacement Notes.

      If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuers and the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Note, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee's
requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, an indemnity
bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the
Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any
authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is
replaced. The Issuers may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

      Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuers and
shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

                                       49

SECTION 2.08 Outstanding Notes.

      The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the
Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation,
those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in
accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section as
not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not
cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds
the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company
shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(a) hereof.

      If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

      If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01
hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

      If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate
of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient
to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall
be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

SECTION 2.09 Treasury Notes.

      In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of
Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the
Company or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or
controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any
Guarantor, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the
purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any
such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

SECTION 2.10 Temporary Notes.

      Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuers
may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall
authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form
of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuers consider
appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee
shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

      Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of
this Indenture.

SECTION 2.11 Cancellation.

      The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.
The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes
surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The
Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered

                                       50
<PAGE>

for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and
shall dispose of such canceled Notes (subject to the record retention
requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the disposal of all canceled
Notes shall be delivered to the Issuers upon their request therefor. The Issuers
may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 2.12 Defaulted Interest.

      If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they shall
pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful,
interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a
subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes
and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of
the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date
of the proposed payment. The Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed each such
special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date
may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted
interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuers (or, upon
the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name and at the expense
of the Issuers) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states
the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such
interest to be paid.

SECTION 2.13 CUSIP Numbers.

      The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers (if then generally
in use), and, if so, the Trustee will use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption
as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no
representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed
on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may
be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any
such redemption will not be affected by any defect in or omission of such
numbers. The Issuers will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP
numbers.

SECTION 2.14 Issuance of Additional Notes.

      The Issuers will be entitled, from time to time, subject to its compliance
with Section 4.09 hereof, without consent of the Holders, to issue Additional
Notes under this Indenture with identical terms as the Initial Notes issued on
the Issue Date other than with respect to (i) the date of issuance, (ii) the
issue price, (iii) the amount of interest payable on the first interest payment
date and (iv) any adjustments in order to conform to and ensure compliance with
the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws). The Initial Notes
issued on the Issue Date, any Additional Notes and all Exchange Notes issued in
exchange therefor will be treated as a single class for all purposes under this
Indenture.

      With respect to any Additional Notes, the Issuers will set forth in an
Officer's Certificate pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the
Issuers, copies of which will be delivered to the Trustee, the following
information:

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

                                       51
<PAGE>

            (2) the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP number of such
      Additional Notes; provided, however, that no Additional Notes may be
      issued at a price that would cause such Additional Notes to have "original
      issue discount" within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Internal Revenue
      Code of 1986, as amended; and

            (3) whether such Additional Notes will be subject to transfer
      restrictions or will be issued in the form of Exchange Notes.

                                   ARTICLE 3.

      If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer
to purchase at any time, the Trustee shall select Notes for redemption or

            (1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in
            compliance with the requirements of the principal national
            securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or

            (2) if otherwise required by law.

      In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular
Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided
herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption or
purchase date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called
for redemption or purchase.

      The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Notes
selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for
partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or
purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or
whole multiples of $1,000; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be
redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such
Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except

more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuers shall mail or cause to
be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose
Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption
notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice
is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 12 of this Indenture.

      The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP
Number(s)) and shall state:

            (1) the redemption date;

            (2) the redemption price;

            (3) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the
      principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the

            (7) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture
      pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

            (8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy
      of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the
      Notes.

      At the Issuers' request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption
in the Issuers' name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Issuers
have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date, an
Officer's Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting
forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding
paragraph.

                                       53
<PAGE>

SECTION 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

      Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03
hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the
redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be
conditional.

SECTION 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

      Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the relevant redemption or
purchase date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying

interest and Special Interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased

Issuers any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuers
in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of,
and accrued interest and Special Interest, if any, on, all Notes to be redeemed
or purchased.

      If the Issuers comply with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on
and after the redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the
Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is
redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the
related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be
paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of
business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase is
not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of
the Issuers to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on
the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal
is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid
principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01
hereof.

surrendered.

      specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date;

            (7) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the
      Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives,
      not later than on the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex,
      facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the
      principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a
      statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note
      purchased;

            (8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari
      passu Indebtedness surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the Offer
      Amount, the Company shall select the Notes and other pari passu
      Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal
      amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered (with
      such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only
      Notes in denominations of $1,000, or integral multiples thereof, shall be
      purchased); and

            (9) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be

accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer

that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuers
of their obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan,

any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such violation.

members of management, directors or consultants of the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, or any direct or indirect parent holding company of the

provision of this Indenture;

            (9) the repurchase of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon the
      exercise of options, rights or warrants to the extent such Equity

      Offer;

            (11) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would
      be caused thereby, after the occurrence of a Change of Control and within
      60 days after the completion of the offer to repurchase the Notes pursuant
      to Section 4.15 of this Indenture (including the purchase of the Notes

            to pay dividends of up to 6% per annum of the net proceeds received
            by such Person in such public offering that are contributed to the
            Company as common equity capital, or

                  (B) by the Company, following the first initial public
            offering of common Equity Interests by the Company, to pay dividends

      be caused thereby, other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to
      exceed $40.0 million since the date of this Indenture.

      (c) The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the
Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or
securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment.
The Fair Market Value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued
by this Section 4.07 shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the
Company whose resolution with respect thereto shall be delivered to the Trustee.

      For purposes of determining compliance with the provisions set forth
above, in the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than
one of the types of Restricted Payments described in the above clauses, the
Company, in its sole discretion, may order and classify, and from time to time
may reorder and reclassify, such Restricted Payment, if it would have been
permitted at the time such Restricted Payment was made and at the time of any
such reclassification.

Subsidiaries.

      (a)   The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted

      replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the
      amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, increases, supplements,

      restrictive,

                                       65
<PAGE>

      taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment

      (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in
      connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which
      encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the
      properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person or any of its
      Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person or any of its
      Subsidiaries, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness,

            (8) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the
      restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted

      Subsidiary in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction;
      provided that such restrictions apply only to such Receivables Subsidiary;

            (15) contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, not
      relating to any Indebtedness, and that do not, individually or in the
      aggregate, detract from the value of property or assets of the Company or
      any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company in any manner material to the
      Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; and

            (16) restrictions on the transfer of property or assets required by

SECTION 4.09 Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and
Preferred Stock

      (a)   The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee
or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise,
with respect to (collectively, "incur") any Indebtedness (including Acquired
Debt), and the Company shall not issue any Disqualified Stock and shall not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred
stock; provided, however, that the Issuers and the Guarantors may incur
Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock or preferred
stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company's most recently ended
four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available
immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred
or such Disqualified Stock or such preferred stock is issued, as the case may
be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis
(including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the
additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the
preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such
four-quarter period.

      (b)   The provisions of Section 4.09(a) shall not prohibit the incurrence
of any of the following items of Indebtedness or the issuance of any of the
following items of Disqualified Stock or preferred stock (collectively,
"Permitted Debt"):

            (1) the incurrence by the Company, IASIS Capital and/or any
      Guarantor (and the Guarantee thereof by the Guarantors, IASIS Capital and
      the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries) of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement
      and other Credit Facilities entered into after the date of the Credit
      Agreement in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding
      under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a
      principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company
      and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed $425.0 million
      plus the greater of (x) $250.0 million and (y) the amount equal to 85% of
      the net book value of receivables and 65% of

                                       67
<PAGE>

      the net book value of inventory of the Company and its Restricted
      Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis at the time such Indebtedness is
      incurred, as determined in accordance with GAAP, less the aggregate amount
      of all Net Proceeds of Asset Sales applied by the Company or any of its
      Restricted Subsidiaries since the date of this Indenture to repay any term
      Indebtedness under a Credit Facility or to repay any revolving credit
      Indebtedness under a Credit Facility and effect a corresponding commitment
      reduction thereunder pursuant to Section 4.10 of this Indenture;

            (2) the incurrence by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries of
      the Existing Indebtedness;

            (3) the incurrence by the Issuers and the Guarantors of Indebtedness
      represented by the Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture,
      replacement Notes in respect thereof, if any, and the related Subsidiary
      Guarantees and the Exchange Notes and related Subsidiary Guarantees to be
      issued pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement;

            (4) the incurrence or issuance by the Company or any of its
      Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness (including Capital Lease
      Obligations), Disqualified Stock or preferred stock, in each case,
      incurred or issued for the purpose of financing all or any part of the
      purchase price or cost of design, construction, lease, installation or
      improvement of property, plant or equipment used or useful in a Permitted
      Business, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted
      Refinancing Indebtedness and Replacement Preferred Stock incurred to
      renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness
      incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed the greater of $50.0
      million and 3% of Total Assets at any time outstanding;

            (5) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness or Replacement
      Preferred Stock in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to
      renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness
      (other than intercompany Indebtedness) or any Disqualified Stock or
      preferred stock that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under
      Section 4.09(a) or clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (13), (15), (18) or (19) of
      this Section 4.09(b);

            (6) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and
      any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that:

                  (A) if the Company or any Guarantor is the obligor on such
            Indebtedness and the payee is not the Company or a Guarantor, such
            Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in
            full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes,
            in the case of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantee, in the case
            of a Guarantor, except to the extent such subordination would
            violate a material contract as in effect on the date of this
            Indenture or is not permitted pursuant to applicable laws, rules or
            regulations; and

                  (B) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity
            Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a
            Person other than the Company or a

                                       68
<PAGE>

            Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any sale or other
            transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the
            Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, shall be deemed,
            in each case, to constitute a new incurrence of such Indebtedness by
            the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, which
            new incurrence is not permitted by this clause (6);

            (7) the issuance by any of the Company's Restricted Subsidiaries to
      the Company or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of shares of
      preferred stock; provided, however, that:

                  (A) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests
            that results in any such preferred stock being held by a Person
            other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;
            and

                  (B) any sale or other transfer of any such preferred stock to
            a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
            of the Company,

            will be deemed, in each case, to constitute a new issuance of such
            preferred stock by such Restricted Subsidiary which new issuance is
            not permitted by this clause (7);

            (8) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations in the ordinary course of business;

            (9) the guarantee:

                  (A) by the Issuers or any of the Guarantors of Indebtedness of
            the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that was
            permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09;
            provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated
            to or pari passu with the Notes, then the Guarantee shall be
            subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the
            Indebtedness guaranteed; and

                  (B) by any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor of
            Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor;

            (10) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of workers' compensation claims,
      self-insurance obligations, bankers' acceptances, letters of credit,
      performance bonds, surety bonds, appeal bonds or other similar bonds in
      the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that upon the drawing
      of letters of credit for reimbursement obligations, including with respect
      to workers' compensation claims, or the incurrence of other Indebtedness
      with respect to reimbursement type obligations regarding workers'
      compensation claims, such obligations are reimbursed within 30 days
      following such drawing or incurrence;

            (11) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other
      financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument
      inadvertently (except in the case of daylight overdrafts) drawn

                                       69
<PAGE>

      against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business, so long as
      such Indebtedness is extinguished within five Business Days;

            (12) the incurrence of Indebtedness arising from agreements of the
      Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company providing for
      indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, holdback, contingency
      payment obligations or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or
      assumed in connection with the disposition or acquisition of any business,
      assets or Capital Stock of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the
      Company;

            (13) the incurrence of Indebtedness or the issuance of any
      Disqualified Stock or preferred stock by any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary of

      outstanding; provided that after giving effect to such incurrence or
      issuance, the Company would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of
      additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test
      set forth in Section 4.09(a);

      the terms of this Indenture; provided that such Indebtedness, Disqualified
      Stock or preferred stock is not incurred in contemplation of such
      acquisition or merger; and provided further that after giving effect to
      such acquisition or merger, either

                  (A) the Company would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of
            additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio;
            or

                  (B) the Company's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio after giving pro
            forma effect to such acquisition or merger would be greater than the
            Company's actual Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio immediately prior to
            such acquisition or merger;

            (16) Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the

                                       70
<PAGE>

      any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness and
      all Replacement Preferred Stock incurred to renew, refund, refinance,
      replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock and
      preferred stock incurred or issued pursuant to this clause (19), not to
      exceed $100.0 million.

      For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the
event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one
of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (19) above,
or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Company shall be
permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence,
or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner
that complies with this Section 4.09. Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement
outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under
this Indenture shall initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in
reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of this Section 4.09(b). The
accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount,
the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional
Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as
Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of
dividends on Disqualified Stock or preferred stock in the form of additional
shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock or preferred stock shall not be
deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock
or preferred stock for purposes of this Section 4.09; provided, in each such
case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Company as
accrued (other than the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due
to a change in accounting principles).

      The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be:

            (1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any
      Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

            (2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any
      other Indebtedness; and

            (3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien
      on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

                  (A) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of
            determination; and

                  (B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person.

SECTION 4.10 Asset Sales.

      (a)   The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
 Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

            (1) the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be)
      receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the
      Fair Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or
      otherwise disposed of; and

                                       71
<PAGE>

            (2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by
      the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash other
      than in the case where the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is
      undertaking a Hospital Swap. For purposes of this provision, each of the
      following shall be deemed to be cash:

                  (A) Cash Equivalents;

                  (B) any liabilities, as shown on the Company's most recent
            consolidated balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted
            Subsidiary of the Company (other than contingent liabilities and
            liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any
            Subsidiary Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such
            assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases the
            Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability;

                  (C) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the
            Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that
            are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash
            within 180 days of receipt, to the extent of the cash received in
            that conversion;

                  (D) any Designated Noncash Consideration the Fair Market Value
            of which, when taken together with all other Designated Noncash
            Consideration received pursuant to this clause (d) (and not
            subsequently converted into Cash Equivalents that are treated as Net
            Proceeds of an Asset Sale) does not exceed $15.0 million since the
            date of this Indenture, with the Fair Market Value of each item of
            Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time received
            and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value; and

                  (E) any stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2)
            or (4) of Section 4.10(b) hereof.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the 75% limitation referred to in clause
(2) above shall not apply to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalent
portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with
the foregoing provision, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds
would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75%
limitation.

      (b)   Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset
Sale, the Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be)
may apply such Net Proceeds at its option:

            (1) to repay Senior Debt and, if the Senior Debt repaid is revolving
      credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect
      thereto;

            (2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any
      Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to
      any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or
      becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;

            (3) to make a capital expenditure; or

                                       72
<PAGE>

            (4) to acquire Additional Assets;

provided that the requirements of clauses (2) through (4) above shall be deemed
to be satisfied if an agreement (including a lease, whether a capital lease or
an operating lease) committing to make the acquisitions or expenditures referred
to therein is entered into by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiary within
365 days after the receipt of such Net Proceeds and such Net Proceeds are
applied in accordance with such agreement.

      Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may
temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest such Net
Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.

      (c)   Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested
as provided in Section 4.10(b) hereof shall constitute "Excess Proceeds." When
the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, within ten
Business Days thereof, the Company shall make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders
and if the Company elects (or is required by the terms of such other pari passu
Indebtedness), all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the
Notes. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer shall be equal to 100% of the
principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any,
to the date of purchase, and shall be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds
remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use such
Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If
the aggregate principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness
tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the
Trustee shall select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be
purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the
amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

      (d)   The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under
the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the
extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each
repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the
provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of
Sections 3.09 or 4.10 of this Indenture, the Company shall comply with the
applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10 by virtue of
such compliance.

SECTION 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates.

      (a)   The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or
assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract,
agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit
of, any Affiliate of the Company involving aggregate consideration in excess of
$5.0 million (each, an "Affiliate Transaction"), unless:

            (1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that, taken as a whole,
      are not materially less favorable to the Company or the relevant
      Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a
      comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with
      an unrelated Person; and

                                       73
<PAGE>

            (2) the Company delivers to the Trustee:

                  (A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of
            related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in
            excess of $10.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of
            the Company set forth in an Officer's Certificate certifying that
            such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section
            4.11(a) and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a
            majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company;
            and

                  (B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of
            related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in
            excess of $40.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the
            Company or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction
            from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or
            investment banking firm of national standing.

      (b)   The following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions
and, therefore, shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a):

            (1) any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or
      director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into
      by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary
      course of business and payments pursuant thereto;

            (2) transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted
      Subsidiaries;

            (3) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted
      Subsidiary of the Company) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely
      because the Company owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary of
      the Company, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;

            (4) payment of reasonable directors' fees;

            (5) any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock)
      of the Company to Affiliates of the Company;

            (6) Permitted Investments or Restricted Payments that do not violate
      Section 4.07 hereof;

            (7) payment of fees and the reimbursement of other expenses to the
      Permitted Holders in connection with the Transactions on the terms as
      described in the Offering Memorandum under the caption "Certain
      Relationships and Related Party Transactions";

            (8) payment of Subordinated Management Fees in each fiscal year not
      in excess of the lesser of (x) 0.25% of the Company's net revenue as
      reflected on the budget prepared for such fiscal year by the management of
      the Company and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and (y)
      $5.0 million, pursuant to the Management

                                       74

      Services Agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture and the

      ordinary course of business;

            (10) transactions with customers, suppliers, contractors, joint

      case which are in the ordinary course of business (including, without
      limitation, pursuant to joint venture agreements) and otherwise in
      compliance with the terms of this Indenture, and which are fair to the
      Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable, in the reasonable
      determination of the Board of Directors, chief executive officer or chief
      financial officer of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as
      applicable, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have
      been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party;

            (11) the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of
      its Restricted Subsidiaries of their obligations under the terms of, any
      stockholders agreement, partnership agreement or limited liability company
      agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase
      agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the date of this
      Indenture as described in the Offering Memorandum under the caption
      "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions" and any similar
      agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the
      existence of, or the performance by the Company or any Restricted
      Subsidiary of the Company of obligations under any future amendment to any
      such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after
      the date of this Indenture will only be permitted by this clause to the
      extent that the terms of any such amendment or new agreement, taken as a
      whole, are not materially disadvantageous to the holders of the Notes, as
      determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, chief executive
      officer or chief financial officer of the Company;

            (12) the Transactions, including all payments made or to be made in
      connection with the Transactions as described in the Offering Memorandum
      under the captions "The Transactions" and "Certain Relationships and
      Related Party Transactions";

            (13) any Qualified Receivables Transaction;

            (14) Permitted Payments to Parent;

            (15) any management, financial advisory, financing, underwriting or
      placement services or any other investment banking, banking or similar
      services involving the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
      (including without limitation any payments in cash, Equity Interests or
      other consideration made by the Company or any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries in connection therewith) on the one hand and the Permitted
      Holders on the other hand, which services (and payments and other
      transactions in connection therewith) are approved by a majority of the
      members of the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith;

                                       75
<PAGE>

            (16) the issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified
      Stock) in the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company for
      compensation purposes;

            (17) intellectual property licenses in the ordinary course of
      business;

            (18) Existing Indebtedness and any other obligations pursuant to an
      agreement existing on the date of this Indenture, including any amendment
      thereto (so long as such amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders
      in any material respect); and

            (19) payments by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
      of reasonable insurance premiums to, and any borrowings from, any
      Insurance Subsidiary, in each case on terms that are no less favorable to
      the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been
      obtained in a comparable arm's-length transaction by the Company or such
      Restricted Subsidiary with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the
      Company.

SECTION 4.12 Liens.

      The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or
become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing
Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter
acquired, unless all payments due under this Indenture and the Notes are secured
on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured until such time as
such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien.

SECTION 4.13 Business Activities.

      The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except
to such extent as would not be material to the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

SECTION 4.14 Corporate Existence.

      Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect:

            (1) its limited liability company existence, and the corporate,
      limited liability company, partnership or other existence of each of its
      Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational
      documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or
      any such Restricted Subsidiary; and

            (2) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of
      the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries;

      provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any
      such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, limited liability
      company, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted
      Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors of the Company determines that the
      preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the

                                       76
<PAGE>

      business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole,
      and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the
      Holders.

SECTION 4.15 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

      (a)   If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder shall have the right to
require the Issuers to make an offer (a "Change of Control Offer") to repurchase
all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000) of that
Holder's Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal
amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, on
the Notes repurchased, if any, to the date of purchase subject to the rights of
Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date, (the "Change of Control Payment"). Within 30 days
following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall mail a notice to each Holder
describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control
and stating:

            (1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this
      Section 4.15 and that all Notes tendered shall be accepted for payment;

            (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no
      earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice
      is mailed (the "Change of Control Payment Date");

            (3) that any Note not tendered shall continue to accrue interest;

            (4) that, unless the Issuers default in the payment of the Change of
      Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of
      Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest and Special Interest after
      the Change of Control Payment Date;

            (5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a
      Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender the Notes, with the
      form entitled "Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" attached to the Notes
      completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent at the
      address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the
      third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;

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

            (7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part shall
      be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion
      of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to
      $1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple thereof; and

            (8) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to a
      Change of Control Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in integral
      multiples of $1,000 only.

                                       77
<PAGE>

      The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the
Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the
extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the
repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change in Control. To the extent that
the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the
provisions of Sections 3.09 or 4.15 of this Indenture, the Company shall comply
with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to
have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 or this Section 4.15 by virtue
of such compliance.

      (b)   On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the
extent lawful:

            (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly
      tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

            (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of
      Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly
      tendered; and

            (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so
      accepted together with an Officer's Certificate stating the aggregate
      principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the
      Issuers.

      The Paying Agent shall promptly mail (but in any case not later than five
days after the Change of Control Payment Date) to each Holder of Notes properly
tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall
promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to
each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of
the Notes surrendered, if any. The Issuers shall publicly announce the results
of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of
Control Payment Date.

      Prior to complying with any of the provisions of this Section 4.15, but in
any event within 90 days following a Change of Control, the Issuers shall either
repay all their outstanding Senior Debt or obtain the requisite consents, if
any, under all agreements governing their outstanding Senior Debt to permit the
repurchase of Notes required by this Section 4.15.

      (c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15, the
Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of
Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at
the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this
Section 4.15 hereof and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn
under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption has been given
pursuant to Section 3.07 of this Indenture unless and until there is a Default
in payment of the applicable redemption price.

SECTION 4.16 No Layering of Debt.

      The Issuers shall not incur, create, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise
become liable for any Indebtedness that is contractually subordinate or junior
in right of payment to any Senior Debt of the Issuers and senior in right of
payment to the Notes. No Guarantor shall incur, create, issue, assume, guarantee
or otherwise become liable for any Indebtedness that is contractually
subordinate or junior in right of payment to the Senior Debt of such Guarantor
and senior in right

                                       78
<PAGE>

of payment to such Guarantor's Subsidiary Guarantee. No such Indebtedness shall
be considered to be senior by virtue of being secured on a first or junior
priority basis.

SECTION 4.17 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries

      The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted
Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause
a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned
by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as
an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be an Investment made as of the
time of the designation and shall reduce the amount available for Restricted
Payments under Section 4.07 or under one or more clauses of the definition of
Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation shall only
be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the
Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Company may redesignate any
Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation
would not cause a Default.

      Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a
certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company giving
effect to such designation and an Officer's Certificate certifying that such
designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section
4.07. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the
preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease
to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any
Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not
permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09, the Company shall
be in Default of Section 4.09. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any
time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Company; provided that such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of
Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding
Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation shall only be
permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 and (2) no
Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

SECTION 4.18 Existence of Corporate Co-Issuer

      The Company shall always maintain a Wholly Owned Subsidiary that is a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company organized as a corporation under the laws
of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia
that will serve as a co-issuer of the Notes unless the Company is itself a
corporation under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or
the District of Columbia.

SECTION 4.19 Payments for Consent.

      The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any
consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder for or as an inducement to any
consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture
or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all
Holders

                                       79
<PAGE>

that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the
solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

SECTION 4.20 Additional Subsidiary Guarantees.

      If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, acquires or creates
another Subsidiary, other than a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, after the date of
this Indenture that guarantees Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, then
that newly acquired or created Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor and execute a
Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee and deliver an Opinion of Counsel in form and
substance satisfactory to the Trustee within 30 Business Days of the date on
which it was acquired or created. The form of such Subsidiary Guarantee is
attached as Exhibit E hereto.

      satisfactory to the Trustee; provided, however, that at all times, a
      corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of
      America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia must be a co-issuer
      or the issuer of the Notes;

            (3) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of
      Default exists; and

            (4) the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any such

            (1) a merger of the Company with an Affiliate solely for the purpose
      of reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction or any other
      transaction the sole purpose of which is to reorganize the Company as a
      corporation;

            (2) any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer,

consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which such sale,
assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall
succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such
consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the "Company" shall
refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Company), and may exercise
every right and power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect
as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein; provided,
however, that the predecessor Company, if any, shall not be relieved from the
obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes except in the case

                              DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

SECTION 6.01 Events of Default.

      Each of the following is an "Event of Default":

            (1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or
      Special Interest, if any, with respect to, the Notes, whether or not
      prohibited by the subordination provisions of this Indenture;

            (2) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or
      otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes, whether
      or not prohibited by the subordination provisions of this Indenture;

            (3) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
      comply with the provisions of Section 5.01 hereof;

            (4) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for
      60 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at
      least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding
      voting as a single class to comply with any of the other agreements in
      this Indenture;

            (5) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which
      there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any
      Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Significant
      Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any
      of its Significant Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee
      now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture, if that
      default:

                  (A) is caused by a failure to pay principal at the final
            Stated Maturity of such Indebtedness (a "Payment Default"); or

                  (B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to
            its express maturity,

      and, in each case, the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together
      with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there
      has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so
      accelerated, aggregates $15.0 million or more;

            (6) with respect to any judgment or decree for the payment of money
      (net of any amount covered by insurance issued by a reputable and
      creditworthy insurer that has not contested coverage or reserved rights
      with respect to an underlying claim) in excess of $25.0 million or its
      foreign currency equivalent against the Company or any Restricted
      Subsidiary of the Company, the failure by the Company or such Restricted
      Subsidiary, as applicable, to pay such judgment or decree, which judgment
      or decree has remained outstanding for a period of 60 days after such
      judgment or decree became final and nonappealable without being paid,
      discharged, waived or stayed;

                                       82
<PAGE>

            (7) except as permitted by this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee
      of any Significant Subsidiary is declared to be unenforceable or invalid
      by any final and nonappealable judgment or decree or ceases for any reason
      to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor, that is a Significant
      Subsidiary or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor that is a
      Significant Subsidiary denies or disaffirms its obligations in writing
      under its Subsidiary Guarantee and such Default continues for 10 days
      after receipt of the notice specified in this Indenture;

            (8) either of the Issuers or any of the Company's Restricted
      Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the
      meaning of Bankruptcy Law:

                  (A) commences a voluntary case,

                  (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in
            an involuntary case,

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

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

                  (E) generally is not paying its debts as they become due; and

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

                  (A) is for relief against either of the Issuers or any of the
            Company's Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary
            in an involuntary case;

                  (B) appoints a custodian of either of the Issuers or any of
            the Company's Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant
            Subsidiary for all or substantially all of the property of either of
            the Issuers or any of the Company's Restricted Subsidiaries that is
            a Significant Subsidiary; or

                  (C) orders the liquidation of either of the Issuers or any of
            the Company's Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant
            Subsidiary;

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

SECTION 6.02 Acceleration.

      In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (8) or (9) of
Section 6.01 hereof, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable
immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the
Notes to be due and payable immediately; provided that so long as any
Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to the Credit Facilities is
outstanding, such acceleration shall not be effective until the

                                       83
<PAGE>

earlier of (1) the acceleration of such Indebtedness under the Credit Facilities
or (2) five Business Days after receipt by the Company of written notice of such
acceleration.

      Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable
immediately. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all of the
Holders, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of
Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or
Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium or Special Interest, if
any, on, or the principal of, the Notes.

SECTION 6.03 Other Remedies.

      If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue
any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium and Special
Interest, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any
provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

      The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of
the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission
by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy
accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or
constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are
cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

SECTION 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

      Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all
of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences
hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the
principal of, premium and Special Interest, if any, or interest on, the Notes
(including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related
payment default that resulted from such acceleration. 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 6.05 Control by Majority.

      Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power
conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that
conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly
prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or that may involve the Trustee in
personal liability.

SECTION 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

      A Holder may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes
only if:

                                       84
<PAGE>

            (1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an
      Event of Default is continuing;

            (2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
      then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

            (3) such Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable security or
      indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or
      expense;

            (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days
      after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity;
      and

            (5) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
      outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with
      such request within such 60-day period.

SECTION 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.

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

SECTION 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee.

      If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust against the Company and each Guarantor for the whole
amount of principal of, premium and Special Interest, if any, and interest
remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the
extent lawful, interest and 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.

SECTION 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

      The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the
Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company
(or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall
be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other
property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian 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 to the Trustee any amount due to
it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under
Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation,
expenses,

                                       85
<PAGE>

disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such
proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured
by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends,
money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to
receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of
reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. 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 Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the
Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 6.10 Priorities.

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

            First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due
      under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses
      and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the
      costs and expenses of collection;

            Second: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for
      principal, premium and Special Interest, if any, and interest, ratably,
      without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due
      and payable on the Notes for principal, premium and Special Interest, if
      any, and interest, respectively; and

            Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent
      jurisdiction shall direct.

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

SECTION 6.11 Undertaking for Costs.

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

SECTION 7.01 Duties of Trustee.

            (a)   If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Indenture, and use the same degree of care and

                                       86
<PAGE>

skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

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

            (1) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the
      express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only
      those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no
      others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
      Indenture against the Trustee; and

            (2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
      conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
      of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished
      to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture.
      However, in the case of certificates or opinions specifically required by
      any provision hereof to be furnished to it, the Trustee shall examine the
      certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the
      requirements of this Indenture.

      (c)   The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
misconduct, except that:

      this Section 7.01;

            (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made
      in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the
      Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

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

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

      (e)   No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend
or risk its own funds or incur any liability.

      (f)   The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received

<PAGE>

      (b)   Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an

liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on
such Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with
counsel of its own selection and the written advice of such counsel or any
Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from
liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
good faith and in reliance thereon.

rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of
any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee security or
indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and
liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
direction.

      (g)   The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or
Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a
default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee,
and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture.

      (h)   The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given

hereunder.

      (i)   The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer's
Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers
authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture,
which Officer's Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an
Officer's Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any
such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

SECTION 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee.

      The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner
or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of
the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However,
in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must
eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to
continue as Trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or
resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is
also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

reporting date that complies with TIA Section 313(a) (but if no event described
in TIA Section 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the
reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply
with TIA Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports
as required by TIA Section 313(c).

      (b)   A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders
shall be mailed by the Trustee to the Issuers and filed by the Trustee with the
SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA
Section 313(d). The Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are
listed on any stock exchange or delisted therefrom.

SECTION 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity.

      (a)   The Issuers shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable
compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The
Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a
trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly
upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or
made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall
include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's
agents and counsel.

      (b)   The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall
indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages
or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance
or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and
expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuers and the Guarantors
(including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether
asserted by the

                                       89
<PAGE>

Issuers, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in
connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense shall be
determined to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct. The
Trustee shall notify the Issuers promptly of any claim for which it may seek
indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuers shall not relieve the
Issuers or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers or
such Guarantor shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the
defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuers shall pay the
reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuers nor any
Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

      (c)   The obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors under this Section
7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

      (d)   To secure the Issuers' and the Guarantors' payment obligations in
this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money
or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay
principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

      (e)   When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event
of Default specified in Section 6.01(8) or (9) hereof occurs, the expenses and
the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents
and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law.

      (f)   The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA Section
313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.

SECTION 7.08 Replacement of Trustee.

      (a)   A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee's
acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.

      (b)   The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from
the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuers. The Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so
notifying the Trustee and the Issuers in writing. The Issuers may remove the
Trustee if:

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

            (2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for
      relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

            (3) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its
      property; or

            (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

                                       90
<PAGE>

      (c)   If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of the Trustee for any reason, the Issuers shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the
Issuers.

      (d)   If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuers, or
the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
may petition, at the expense of the Issuers, any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

      (e)   If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a
Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such
Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

      (f)   A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuers. Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the
successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee
under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its
succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided all sums owing
to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in
Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 7.08, the Company's obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue
for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

      If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or
substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the
successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

SECTION 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.

      There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or
of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authorities and that together with its affiliates has a combined capital and
surplus of at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published
annual report of condition.

      This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements
of TIA Section 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA Section
310(b).

SECTION 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

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

                                   ARTICLE 8.
                    LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

SECTION 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

      The Issuers may, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03
hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes and all obligations of the Guarantors
with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantees upon compliance with the conditions
set forth below in this Article 8.

SECTION 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

      Upon the Issuers' exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuers and each of the Guarantors shall,
subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof,
be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all
outstanding Notes (including the Subsidiary Guarantees) on the date the
conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, "Legal
Defeasance"). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers and the
Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness
represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Subsidiary Guarantees),
which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the purposes of
Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in
clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations
under such Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee,
on demand of and at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive
until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

            (1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments
      in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium and Special
      Interest, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust
      referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

            (2) the Issuers' obligations with respect to such Notes under
      Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof;

            (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
      hereunder and the Issuers' and the Guarantors' obligations in connection
      therewith; and

            (4) this Article 8.

      Subject to compliance with this Section 8.02, the Issuers may exercise
their option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of their
option under Section 8.03 hereof.

SECTION 8.03 Covenant Defeasance.

      Upon the Issuers' exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall, subject
to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be
released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in
Sections 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18,
4.19, 4.20 hereof and Section 5.01(a)(4) hereof with respect to the outstanding
Notes on and after the

                                       92
<PAGE>

date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter,
"Covenant Defeasance"), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed 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 (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding
for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with
respect to the outstanding Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Issuers and
the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of
any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether
directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant 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 6.01 hereof, but,
except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and
Subsidiary Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the
Issuers' exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
Section 8.03 subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section
8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3) through 6.01(6) and, to the extent relating to a
Significant Subsidiary, 6.01(8) and 6.01(9) hereof shall not constitute Events
of Default.

SECTION 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

      In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under
either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof:

            (1) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust,
      for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars,
      non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S.
      dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as shall be
      sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank,
      appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the
      principal of, or interest and premium and Special Interest, if any, on,
      the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the
      applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must
      specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for
      payment or to a particular redemption date;

            (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers must deliver to the
      Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee
      confirming that (a) the Issuers have received from, or there has been
      published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date
      of this Indenture, 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 Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding
      Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
      purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and shall 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 Legal Defeasance had not
      occurred;

            (3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuers must deliver to
      the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee
      confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes shall not recognize
      income, gain or loss for federal income tax

                                       93
<PAGE>

      purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and shall 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;

            (4) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in
      a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material
      agreement (including, without limitation, the Credit Agreement) or
      instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its
      Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
      is bound;

            (5) the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate
      stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuers with the intent of
      preferring the Holders over the other creditors of the Issuers with the
      intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of
      the Issuers or others; and

            (6) the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate
      and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent
      relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been
      complied with.

SECTION 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust;
Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

      Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government
Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other
qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the
"Trustee") pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes
shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the
provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or
through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to
become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and Special Interest, if
any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except
to the extent required by law.

      The Issuers shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government
Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and
interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other
charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

      Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee
shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the request of the
Issuers any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided
in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section
8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required
to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

                                       94
<PAGE>

SECTION 8.06 Repayment to Issuers.

      Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by
the Issuers, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium or Special
Interest, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years
after such principal, premium or Special Interest, if any, or interest has
become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers on their request or (if then
held by the Issuers) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such
Note shall thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuers for payment
thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to
such trust money, and all liability of the Issuers as trustee 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
Issuers cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street
Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that,
after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the
date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money
then remaining shall be repaid to the Issuers.

SECTION 8.07 Reinstatement.

      If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States
dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or
8.03 hereof, 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 Issuers' and the Guarantors' obligations under this
Indenture and the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03
hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all
such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be;
provided, however, that, if the Issuers make any payment of principal of,
premium or Special Interest, if any, or interest on any Note following the
reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the
rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the cash or
Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                   ARTICLE 9.
                        AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

SECTION 9.01 Without Consent of Holders.

      (a)   Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Issuers, the
Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the
Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes without the consent of any Holder of a Note:

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

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

            (3) to provide for the assumption of the Company's or a Guarantor's
      obligations to the Holders and Subsidiary Guarantees by a successor to the
      Company pursuant to Article 5 or Section 11.05, respectively, hereof;

                                       95
<PAGE>

            (4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or
      benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights
      hereunder of any Holder;

            (5) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or
      maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

            (6) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees
      or the Notes to any provision of the "Description of Notes" section of the
      Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in that "Description
      of Notes" section was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision
      of this Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes;

            (7) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance
      with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the Issue Date;

      and/or a Subsidiary Guarantee with respect to the Notes; or

            (9) to issue Exchange Notes.

      (b)   Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its
Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section
7.02(b) hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in
the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted
by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements
and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be
obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its
own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 9.02 With Consent of Holders.

      (a)   Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation,
Section 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof), the Subsidiary Guarantees and the Notes
with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in
connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the
Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or
Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the
principal of, premium or Special Interest, if any, or interest on the Notes,
except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded)
or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees or
the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including consents
obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase
of, the Notes).

      (b)   Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its
Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the
Trustee of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the
Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02(b) hereof,

                                       96
<PAGE>

the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of
such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental
indenture directly affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion,
but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental
indenture.

      (c)   It is not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this
Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver,
but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

      (d)   After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02
becomes effective, the Issuers shall mail to the Holders affected thereby a
notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of
the Issuers to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in
any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental
indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, voting as
a single class, may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuers and
the Guarantors with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, or the
Subsidiary Guarantees. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an
amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to
any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

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

            (2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note
      or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes except
      as provided above with respect to Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof;

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

            (4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal
      of, or interest or premium, or Special Interest, if any, on, the Notes
      (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at
      least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
      Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such
      acceleration);

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

            (6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to
      waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders to receive payments of
      principal of, or interest or premium or Special Interest, if any, on, the
      Notes;

            (7) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than
      a payment required by Sections 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15 hereof);

            (8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its
      Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the
      terms of this Indenture; or

                                       97
<PAGE>

            (9) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver
      provisions.

SECTION 9.03 Amendments regarding Subordination.

      Notwithstanding Section 9.01 and 9.02 hereof, (a) any amendment to the
provisions of Article 10 hereof (including the definitions of "Senior Debt" and
"Designated Senior Debt") that adversely affects the rights of any holder of
Senior Debt of the Company then outstanding requires the consent of the holders
of such Senior Debt (or any group or representative thereof authorized to give
consent), and (b) any amendment or waiver of the provisions of Article 10 hereof
that adversely affects the rights of the Holders requires the consent of the
Holders of at least 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then
outstanding.

SECTION 9.04 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

      Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set
forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then
in effect.

SECTION 9.05 Revocation and Effect of Consents.

      Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to
it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and
every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same
debt as the consenting Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not
made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written
notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes
effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance
with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

SECTION 9.06 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

      The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment,
supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuers in
exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment,
supplement or waiver.

      Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not
affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 9.07 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

      The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized
pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely
affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuers
may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors
approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee
shall be provided with and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully
protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section
13.04 hereof, an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that
the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture.

                                  ARTICLE 10.
                                 SUBORDINATION

SECTION 10.01 Agreement to Subordinate.

      The Issuers agree, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that all
Obligations in respect of the Notes are subordinated in right of payment, to the
extent and in the manner provided in this Article 10, to the prior payment in
full in cash of all Senior Debt of the Issuers (whether outstanding on the Issue
Date or created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed thereafter), and that the
subordination is for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt of the Issuers.

SECTION 10.02 Liquidation; Dissolution;Bankruptcy.

      The holders of Senior Debt of the Issuers shall be entitled to receive
payment in full in cash of all Obligations due in respect of such Senior Debt
(including interest after the commencement of any bankruptcy proceeding at the
rate specified in the applicable Senior Debt whether or not such interest is an
allowable claim) before the Holders shall be entitled to receive any payment (by
set off or otherwise) with respect to the Notes (except that Holders may receive
and retain Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any trust created
pursuant to Section 8.01 or Article 12 hereof):

            (1) in a liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

            (2) in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or
      similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property;

            (3) in an assignment for the benefit of the Company's creditors; or

            (4) in any marshaling of the Company's assets and liabilities.

SECTION 10.03 Default on Designated Senior Debt.

      (a)   The Issuers may not make any payment (by set off or otherwise) in
respect of the Notes or acquire or redeem any Notes for cash or property or
otherwise (other than Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any
trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 or Article 12 hereof) if:

            (1) a payment default on Designated Senior Debt occurs and is
      continuing beyond any applicable grace period; or

            (2) any other default occurs and is continuing on any series of
      Designated Senior Debt that permits holders of that series of Designated
      Senior Debt to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice
      of such default (a "Payment Blockage Notice") from the holders of (or
      agent of any of the holders of) any Designated Senior Debt. If the Trustee
      receives any such Payment Blockage Notice, no subsequent Payment Blockage
      Notice shall be effective for purposes of this Section unless and until
      (A) at least 360 days have elapsed since the delivery of the immediately
      prior Payment Blockage Notice

                                       99
<PAGE>

      and (B) all scheduled payments of principal, premium and Special Interest,
      if any, and interest on the Notes that have come due have been paid in
      full in cash.

      No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of
delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee may be, or may be made,
the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such default has been
cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 days.

      (b)   The Issuers may and shall resume payments on and distributions in
respect of the Notes:

            (1) in the case of a payment default, upon the date upon which such
      default is cured or waived, and

            (2) in the case of a nonpayment default, upon the earlier of the
      date on which such nonpayment default is cured or waived or 179 days after
      the date on which the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received,
      unless the maturity of any Designated Senior Debt has been accelerated or
      a payment default exists on any Designated Senior Debt

            if this Article 10 otherwise permits the payment, distribution or
            acquisition at the time of such payment, distribution or
            acquisition.

SECTION 10.04 Acceleration of Notes.

      If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the
Company shall promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the Issuers of the
acceleration.

SECTION 10.05 When Distribution Must Be Paid Over.

      In the event that the Trustee or any Holder receives any payment
(including a payment by a Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee) in respect
of the Notes (other than Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any
trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 or Article 12 hereof) at a time when the
Trustee or such Holder, as applicable, has actual knowledge that such payment is
prohibited by Section 10.03 hereof, such payment shall be held by the Trustee or
such Holder, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and
delivered, upon written request, to, the holders of Senior Debt as their
interests may appear or their Representative under the agreement, indenture or
other document (if any) pursuant to which Senior Debt may have been issued, as
their respective interests may appear, for application to the payment of all
Obligations with respect to Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary
to pay such Obligations in full in accordance with their terms, after giving
effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior
Debt.

      With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to
perform only those obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically
set forth in this Article 10, and no implied covenants or obligations with
respect to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against
the Trustee. 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 pays over or distributes to or on behalf of Holders or the Company or
any other Person money or assets to

                                      100
<PAGE>

which any holders of Senior Debt are then entitled by virtue of this Article 10,
except if such payment is made as a result of the willful misconduct or gross
negligence of the Trustee.

SECTION 10.06 Notice by Company.

      The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of any
facts known to the Company that would cause a payment in respect of the Notes to
violate this Article 10, but failure to give such notice shall not affect the
subordination of the Notes to the Senior Debt as provided in this Article 10.

SECTION 10.07 Subrogation.

      After all Senior Debt of the Issuers is paid in full and until the Notes
are paid in full, Holders shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all
other Indebtedness pari passu with the Notes) to the rights of holders of such
Senior Debt to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Debt to the
extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders have been applied to
the payment of such Senior Debt. A distribution made under this Article 10 to
holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as
between the Issuers and Holders, a payment by the Issuers on the Notes.

SECTION 10.08 Relative Rights.

      This Article 10 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of
Senior Debt of the Issuers. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

            (1) impair, as between the Company and Holders, the obligation of
      the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of,
      premium and interest and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes in
      accordance with their terms;

            (2) affect the relative rights of Holders and creditors of the
      Issuers other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt of
      the Issuers; or

            (3) prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available
      remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of
      holders of Senior Debt of the Issuers to receive distributions and
      payments otherwise payable to Holders.

      If the Issuers fail because of this Article 10 to pay principal of,
premium or interest or Special Interest, if any, on a Note on the due date, the
failure is still a Default or Event of Default.

SECTION 10.09 Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Issuers.

      No right of any holder of Senior Debt of the Issuers to enforce the
subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes may be impaired by any
act or failure to act by the Issuers or any Holder or by the failure of the
Issuers or any Holder to comply with this Indenture.

                                      101
<PAGE>

SECTION 10.10 Distribution or Notice to Representative.

      Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of
Senior Debt of the Issuers, the distribution may be made and the notice given to
their Representative.

      Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in
this Article 10, 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 Indebtedness 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 10.

SECTION 10.11 Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 10 or any other provision
of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the
existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment or
distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue
to make payments on the Notes, unless the Trustee has received at its Corporate
Trust Office at least five Business Days prior to the date of such payment
written notice of facts that would cause the payment in respect of the Notes to
violate this Article 10. Only the Company or a Representative may give the
notice. Nothing in this Article 10 shall impair the claims of, or payments to,
the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof.

      The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior Debt
with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the
same with like rights.

SECTION 10.12 Authorization to Effect Subordination.

      Each Holder by the Holder's acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the
Trustee on such Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or
appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 10, and
appoints the Trustee to act as such Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all
such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of
debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 6.09 hereof
at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, the
Representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on
behalf of the Holders of the Notes.

                                  ARTICLE 11.
                              SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

SECTION 11.01 Guarantee.

      (a)   Subject to this Article 11, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly
and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated
and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns,
irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or
the obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder, that:

                                      102
<PAGE>

            (1) the principal of, premium and Special Interest, if any, and
      interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at
      maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the
      overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all
      other Obligations of the Issuers to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder
      or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in
      accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

            (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any
      Notes or any of such other Obligations, that same shall be promptly paid
      in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the
      extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
      otherwise.

      Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so
guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally
obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a
guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

      (b)   The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the
Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any
waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions
hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action
to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby
waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court
in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuers, any right to require a
proceeding first against the Issuers, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever
and covenant that this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this
Indenture or by release in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

      (c)   If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise
to return to the Issuers, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator
or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuers or the
Guarantors, any amount paid by either the Issuers or the Guarantors to the
Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore
discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

      (d)   Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed
hereby until payment in full of all Obligations guaranteed hereby. Each
Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and
the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the
Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof
for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay,
injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the
Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of
acceleration of such Obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such
Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and
payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee. The
Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying
Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of
the Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantee.

                                      103
<PAGE>

SECTION 11.02 Subordination of Subsidiary Guarantee.

      The Obligations of each Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant
to this Article 11 shall be junior and subordinated to the Senior Debt of such
Guarantor on the same basis as the Notes are junior and subordinated to Senior
Debt of the Issuers. For the purposes of the foregoing sentence, the Trustee and
the Holders shall have the right to receive and/or retain payments by any of the
Guarantors only at such times as they may receive and/or retain payments in
respect of the Notes pursuant to this Indenture, including Article 10 hereof.

SECTION 11.03 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

      Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby
confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary
Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance
for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the
extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing
intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree
that the obligations of such Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount
that shall, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent
and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and
after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from
or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the
obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 11, result in the
obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a
fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

SECTION 11.04 Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee.

      To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 hereof,
each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto shall be endorsed by an
Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee and that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by
one of its Officers.

      Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in
Section 11.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

      If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Subsidiary
Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the
Note on which a Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed, the Subsidiary Guarantee shall
be valid nevertheless.

      The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof
hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth
in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

      In the event that the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
creates or acquires any Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, if required
by Section 4.20 hereof, the Company shall cause such Subsidiary to comply with
the provisions of Section 4.20 hereof and this Article 11, to the extent
applicable.

SECTION 11.05 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

      Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11.05, no Guarantor may sell
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or
consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the
surviving Person) another Person, other than either of the Issuers or another
Guarantor, unless:

            (1) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default
      or Event of Default exists; and

            (2) either:

            (a)   the Person (if other than either of the Issuers or a
      Guarantor) acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the
      Person (if other than either of the Issuers or a Guarantor) formed by or
      surviving any such consolidation or merger unconditionally assumes all the
      obligations of that Guarantor, pursuant to a supplemental indenture in
      form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, under this
      Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement
      on the terms set forth herein or therein; or

            (b)   the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied
      in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including
      without limitation, Section 4.10 hereof.

      In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the
assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and
delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the
Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual
performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be
performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to and be
substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named
herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed
any or all of the Subsidiary Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes
issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuers
and delivered to the Trustee. All the Subsidiary Guarantees so issued shall in
all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the
Subsidiary Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the
terms of this Indenture as though all of such Subsidiary Guarantees had been
issued at the date of the execution hereof.

      Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding
clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the
Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into
either of the Issuers or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or
conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an
entirety to the Company or another Guarantor.

SECTION 11.06 Releases.

      The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released:

                                      105
<PAGE>

      (a)   in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or
consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to
such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the
sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 hereof;

      (b)   in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the
Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after
giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Company, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 hereof;

      (c)   if the Company designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a
Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.17
hereof;

      (d)   if that Guarantor is released from its guarantee under the Credit
Agreement;

      (e)   if that Guarantor is designated as a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary in
accordance with the definition of Non-Guarantor Subsidiary; or

      (f)   upon legal defeasance in accordance with Article 8 hereof or
satisfaction and discharge in accordance with Article 12 hereof.

      If any Guarantor is released from its Subsidiary Guarantee, any of its
Subsidiaries that are Guarantors will be released from their Subsidiary
Guarantees, if any.

      Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Subsidiary
Guarantee as provided in this Section 11.05 shall remain liable for the full
amount of principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations
of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 11.

                                  ARTICLE 12.
                           satisfaction and discharge

SECTION 12.01 Satisfaction and Discharge.

      This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect
as to all Notes issued hereunder, when:

            (1) either:

      (a)   all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or
destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment
money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the
Issuers, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

      (b)   all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of
redemption or otherwise or shall become due and payable within one year and the
Issuers or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited
with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders,
cash in

                                      106
<PAGE>

U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in
U.S. dollars and non- callable Government Securities, in amounts as shall be
sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and
discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation for principal, premium and Special Interest, if any, and accrued
interest to the date of maturity or redemption;

            (2) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on
      the date of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default
      resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and
      the deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
      default under, any other instrument to which the Issuers or any Guarantor
      is a party or by which the Issuers or any Guarantor is bound;

            (3) the Issuers or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all
      sums payable by it under this Indenture; and

            (4) the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the
      Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the
      payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case
      may be.

      In addition, the Issuers must deliver an Officer's Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to
satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

      Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money
has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to sub-clause (b) of clause (1) of
this Section, the provisions of Sections 12.02 and 8.06 shall survive. In
addition, nothing in this Section 12.01 shall be deemed to discharge those
provisions of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

SECTION 12.02 Application of Trust Money.

      Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with
the Trustee pursuant to Section 12.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied
by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company
acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons
entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose
payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not
be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

      To the extent that and so long as the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to
apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 12.01 hereof
by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any
court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
such application, the Issuers' and any Guarantor's obligations under this
Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had
occurred pursuant to Section 12.01 hereof; provided, however, that if the
Issuers have made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on

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

            (1) INTEREST. IASIS Healthcare LLC, a Delaware limited liability
      company (the "Company"), and IASIS Capital Corporation, a Delaware
      corporation ("IASIS Capital" and together with the Company, the
      "Issuers"), promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note
      at 8-3/4% per annum from ____________, 20__ until maturity and shall pay
      the Special Interest, if any, payable pursuant to the Registration Rights
      Agreement referred to below. The Issuers shall pay interest and Special
      Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of
      each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next
      succeeding Business Day (each, an "Interest Payment Date"). Interest on
      the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has
      been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance;
      provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest,
      and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the
      face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall
      accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further
      that the first Interest Payment Date shall be ____________, 20__. The
      Issuers shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
      proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if
      any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess
      of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition
      interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue
      installments of interest and Special Interest, if any, (without regard to
      any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate
      to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
      year of twelve 30-day months.

            (2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuers shall pay interest on the Notes
      (except defaulted interest) and Special Interest, if any, to the Persons
      who are registered Holders at the close of business on the June 1 or
      December 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes
      are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment
      Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to
      defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, interest
      and premium and Special Interest, if any, at the office or agency of the
      Paying Agent within the City and State of New York, or, at the option of
      the Issuers, payment of interest and Special Interest, if any, may be made
      by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the
      register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately
      available funds shall be required with respect to principal of and
      interest, premium and Special Interest, if any, on, all Global Notes and
      all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer
      instructions to the Issuers or the Paying Agent. Such

                                      A1-2
<PAGE>

      payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America
      as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
      private debts.

            (3) PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York
      Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying
      Agent and Registrar. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar
      without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may
      act in any such capacity.

            (4) INDENTURE. The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture dated
      as of June 22, 2004 (the "Indenture"), among the Issuers, the Guarantors
      and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the
      Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA (15
      U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms,
      and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of
      such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the
      express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall
      govern and be controlling. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of
      the Issuers. Subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, the
      Issuers may issue Additional Notes.

            (5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

            (a)   Except as set forth in subparagraph (b) of this Paragraph 5,

      one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount
      of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price of 108.750% of
      the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special
      Interest, if any, to the redemption date with the net cash proceeds of one
      or more Equity Offerings by the Issuers or a contribution to the common
      equity capital of the Company from the net proceeds of one or more Equity
      Offerings by a direct or indirect parent of the Company (in each case,
      other than Excluded Contributions and the net proceeds of a sale of
      Designated Preferred Stock); provided that (i) at least 65% in aggregate
      principal amount of the Notes originally issued under the Indenture
      (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains
      outstanding immediately after

                                      A1-3
<PAGE>

      the occurrence of such redemption; and (ii) the redemption occurs within
      90 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering or equity
      contribution.

            (6) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Issuers shall not be required to make
      mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes.

            (7) REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDER.

            (a)   If there is a Change of Control, each Holder shall have the
      right to require the Issuers to make an offer (a "Change of Control
      Offer") to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral
      multiple of $1,000) of that Holder's Notes at a purchase price equal to
      101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid
      interest and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, if any,
      to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of the Holders on the
      relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
      Payment Date (the "Change of Control Payment"). Within 30 days following
      any Change of Control, the Issuers shall mail a notice to each Holder
      setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as
      required by the Indenture.

            (b)   If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company
      consummates any Asset Sales, within 10 Business Days of each date on which
      the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, the Company
      shall commence an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders and if the Company
      elects (or is required by the terms of such other pari passu indebtedness)
      all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes
      pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture to purchase the maximum
      principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness that may be
      purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an
      amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and
      unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the Purchase Date in
      accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent
      that the aggregate amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness
      tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds,
      the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary) may use the remaining Excess
      Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the
      aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness
      surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the
      Trustee shall select the Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to be
      purchased on a pro rata basis. Holders to whom an Asset Sale Offer is
      addressed shall receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Company prior to the
      related Purchase Date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by
      completing the form entitled "Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" attached
      to the Notes.

            (8) NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption shall be mailed at
      least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each
      Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except
      that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a
      redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of
      the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture. Notes in
      denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole
      multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be
      redeemed. On and after the

                                      A1-4
<PAGE>

      redemption date interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof
      called for redemption.

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

            (10) PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be
      treated as its owner for all purposes.

            (11) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain
      exceptions, the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes may be
      amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a
      majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes,
      including without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a
      purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes, and any
      existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of
      the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with
      the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
      the then outstanding Notes, including without limitation, consents
      obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange
      offer for, Notes. Without the consent of any Holder, the Indenture, the
      Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented (i) to
      cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, (ii) to provide for
      uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes,
      (iii) to provide for the assumption of the Company's or any Guarantor's
      obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation,
      (iv) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or
      benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights
      under the Indenture of any such Holder, (v) to comply with the
      requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification
      of the Indenture under the TIA, (vi) to conform the text of the Indenture,
      the Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes to any provision of the
      "Description of Notes" section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent
      that such provision in that "Description of Notes" was intended to be a
      verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture, the Subsidiary
      Guarantees or the Notes, (vii) to provide for the issuance of Additional
      Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture as of
      the Issue Date, (viii) to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental
      indenture and/or a Subsidiary Guarantee with respect to the Notes, or (ix)
      to issue the Exchange Notes. In addition, (a) any amendment to the
      provisions of Article 10 of the Indenture (including the definitions of
      "Senior Debt" and "Designated Senior Debt") that adversely affects the
      rights of any holder of Senior Debt of the Company then outstanding
      requires the consent of the holders of such Senior Debt (or any group or
      representative thereof authorized to

                                      A1-5
<PAGE>

      give a consent), and (b) any amendment or waiver of the provisions of
      Article 10 of the Indenture that adversely affects the rights of the
      Holders requires the consent of the Holders of at least 66 2/3% in
      aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding.

            (12) DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default include: (i) default
      for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on or Special Interest, if
      any, with respect to, the Notes, whether or not prohibited by the
      subordination provisions of the Indenture; (ii) default in payment when
      due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or
      premium, if any, on the Notes whether or not prohibited by the
      subordination provisions of the Indenture; (iii) failure by the Company to
      comply with Section 5.01 of the Indenture; (iv) failure by the Company or
      any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after notice to the Company
      by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
      amount of Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with
      any of the other agreements in the Indenture; (v) default under any
      mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by
      which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money
      borrowed by the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (or the
      payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Significant
      Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is
      created after the date of the Indenture, if that default: (a) is caused by
      a failure to pay principal at the final Stated Maturity of such
      Indebtedness (a "Payment Default") or (b) results in the acceleration of
      such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the
      principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount
      of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment
      Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $15.0
      million or more; (vi) certain final judgments and decrees for the payment
      of money that remain undischarged for a period of 60 days after such
      judgment has become final and nonappealable; (vii) except as permitted by
      the Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary is
      declared to be unenforceable or invalid by any final and nonappealable
      judgment or decree or ceases for any reason to be in full force and
      effect, or any Guarantor, that is a Significant Subsidiary or any Person
      acting on behalf of any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary denies
      or disaffirms its obligations in writing under its Subsidiary Guarantee
      and such Default continues for 10 days after receipt of the notice
      specified in the Indenture and (viii) certain events of bankruptcy or
      insolvency with respect to the Issuers or any of the Company's Restricted
      Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary. If any Event of Default
      occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in
      aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all
      the Notes to be due and payable; provided that so long as any Indebtedness
      permitted to be incurred pursuant to the Credit Facilities is outstanding,
      such acceleration will not be effective until the earlier of (1) the
      acceleration of such Indebtedness under the Credit Facilities or (2) five
      Business Days after receipt by the Company of written notice of such
      acceleration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of
      Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all
      outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or
      notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as
      provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a
      majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the
      Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold
      from Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default

                                      A1-6
<PAGE>

      (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal
      or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their
      interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
      Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the
      Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default
      and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or
      Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium and Special
      Interest, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including in connection with
      an offer to purchase). The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee
      annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the
      Company is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of
      Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or
      Event of Default.

            (13) SUBORDINATION. All Obligations in respect of the Notes are
      subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Debt of
      the Issuers (whether outstanding on the Issue Date or created, incurred,
      assumed or guaranteed thereafter) on the terms provided in the Indenture.

            (14) TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual
      or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and
      perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal
      with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

            (15) NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee,
      incorporator, stockholder or member of the Issuers or any of the
      Guarantors, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of
      the Issuers or such Guarantor under the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees
      or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason
      of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note
      waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of
      the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

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

            (17) ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name
      of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN
      ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of
      survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and
      U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

            (18) ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF RESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES AND
      RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES. In addition to the rights provided to Holders
      under the Indenture, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted
      Definitive Notes shall have all the rights set forth in the Registration
      Rights Agreement dated as of June 22, 2004, among the Company ,the

      Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has
      caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use

Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

            (1) INTEREST. IASIS Healthcare LLC, a Delaware limited liability
      company (the "Company"), and IASIS Capital Corporation, a Delaware
      corporation ("IASIS Capital" and together with the Company, the
      "Issuers"), promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note
      at 8 3/4% per annum from ____________, 20__ until maturity and shall pay

      Agreement referred to below. The Issuers shall pay interest and Special
      Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of

      Date"). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to
      which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the
      date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the
      payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record
      date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest
      Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest
      Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall
      be ____________, 20__. The Issuers shall pay interest (including
      post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
      overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a
      rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall
      pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
      Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Special Interest,
      if any, (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time
      on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be
      computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

            (2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuers shall pay interest on the Notes
      (except defaulted interest) and Special Interest, if any, to the Persons
      who are registered Holders at the close of business on the June 1 or
      December 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes
      are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment
      Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to
      defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, interest
      and premium and Special Interest, if any, at the office or agency of the
      Paying Agent within the City and State of New York, or, at the option of
      the Issuers, payment of interest and Special Interest, if any, may be made
      by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the
      register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately
      available funds shall be required with respect to principal of and
      interest, premium and Special Interest, if any, on, all Global Notes and
      all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer
      instructions to the Issuers or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in
      such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of
      payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

            (3) PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York
      Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying
      Agent and Registrar. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar
      without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may
      act in any such capacity.

            (4) INDENTURE. The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture dated
      as of June 22, 2004 (the "Indenture"), among the Issuers, the Guarantors
      and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the
      Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA (15
      U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms,
      and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of
      such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the
      express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall
      govern and be controlling. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of
      the Issuers. Subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, the

      the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special
      Interest, if any, to the redemption date with the net cash proceeds of one
      or more Equity Offerings by the Issuers or a contribution to the common
      equity capital of the Company from the net proceeds of one or more Equity
      Offerings by a direct or indirect parent of the Company (in each case,
      other than Excluded Contributions and the net proceeds of a sale of
      Designated Preferred Stock); provided that (i) at least 65% in aggregate
      principal amount of the Notes originally issued under the Indenture
      (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains
      outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and (ii)
      the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of such
      Equity Offering or equity contribution.

      multiple of $1,000) of that Holder's Notes at a purchase price equal to
      101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid
      interest and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, if any,

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

            (b)   If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company
      consummates any Asset Sales, within 10 Business Days of each date on which
      the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, the Company
      shall commence an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders and if the Company
      elects (or is required by the terms of such other pari passu indebtedness)
      all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes

      amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and
      unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the Purchase Date in
      accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent
      that the aggregate amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness
      tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds,
      the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary) may use the remaining Excess
      Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the
      aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness
      surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the
      Trustee shall select the Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to be
      purchased on a pro rata basis. Holders to whom an Asset Sale Offer is
      addressed shall receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Company prior to the

      least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each
      Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except
      that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a
      redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of
      the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture. Notes in
      denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole
      multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be
      redeemed. On and after the redemption date interest ceases to accrue on
      Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

            (9) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered
      form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of
      $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged

      Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and
      transfer documents and the Issuers may require a Holder to pay any taxes
      and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuers need
      not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note
      selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note
      being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuers need not exchange or register

<PAGE>

      now exists, or is created after the date of the Indenture, if that
      default: (a) is caused by a failure to pay principal at the final Stated
      Maturity of such Indebtedness (a "Payment Default") or (b) results in the
      acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in
      each case, the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the
      principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been
      a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated,
      aggregates $15.0 million or more; (vi) certain final judgments and decrees
      for the payment of money that remain undischarged for a period of 60 days
      after such judgment has become final and nonappealable; (vii) except as
      permitted by the Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee of any Significant
      Subsidiary is declared to be unenforceable or invalid by any final and
      nonappealable judgment or decree or ceases for any reason to be in full

      any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor that is a Significant
      Subsidiary denies or disaffirms its obligations in writing under its
      Subsidiary Guarantee and such Default continues for 10 days after receipt
      of the notice specified in the Indenture and (viii) certain events of
      bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuers or any of the
      Company's Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary. If any
      Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of
      at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
      may declare all the Notes to be due and payable; provided that so long as
      any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to the Credit
      Facilities is outstanding, such acceleration will not be effective until
      the earlier of (1) the acceleration of such Indebtedness under the Credit
      Facilities or (2) five Business Days after receipt by the Company of
      written notice of such acceleration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
      case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or
      insolvency, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without
      further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the
      Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations,
      Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
      may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee
      may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of
      Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of
      principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in
      their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
      the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the
      Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default
      and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or
      Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium and Special
      Interest, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including in connection with
      an offer to purchase). The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee
      annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the
      Company is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of
      Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or
      Event of Default.

            (13) SUBORDINATION. All Obligations in respect of the Notes are
      subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Debt of
      the Issuers (whether outstanding on the Issue Date or created, incurred,
      assumed or guaranteed thereafter) on the terms provided in the Indenture.

            (14) TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual
      or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and

                         FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
                    TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS

      SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this "Supplemental Indenture"), dated as of
________________, 200__, among __________________ (the "Guaranteeing
Subsidiary"), a subsidiary of IASIS Healthcare LLC (or its permitted successor),
(the "Company"), the Company, IASIS Capital Corporation (or its permitted
successor), ("IASIS Capital," and together with the Company, the "Issuers"), the
other Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to herein) and The Bank
of New York Trust Company, N.A., as trustee under the Indenture referred to
below (the "Trustee").

                                   WITNESSETH

      WHEREAS, the Issuers have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee
an indenture (the "Indenture"), dated as of June 22, 2004 providing for the
issuance of 8-3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the "Notes");

      WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental
indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally
guarantee all of the Company's Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on
the terms and conditions set forth herein (the "Subsidiary Guarantee"); and

      WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is
authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

      NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the
equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:

      1.    CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

      2.    AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to
provide an unconditional Guarantee on the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in the Subsidiary Guarantee and in this Indenture including but not
limited to Article 11 thereof.

      3.    NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers
or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantees, the
Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect
of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the
Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may
not be effective to waive liabilities

                                      E-1
<PAGE>

under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a
waiver is against public policy.

      4.    NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE BUT WITHOUT
GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT
THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

      5.    COUNTERPARTS. The parties may sign any number of copies of this
Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them
together represent the same agreement.

      6.    EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The Section headings herein are for convenience
only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

      7.    THE TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner
whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental
Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which
recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Issuers.

                                      E-2

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Supplemental
Indenture to be duly executed and attested, all as of the date first above
written.
