In response to your request for a financial commitment from us, we are pleased
to inform you that Ealing Corp., a Nevada corporation (the "Lender")hereby
provides this commitment to provide to GB Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Borrowers") a loan facility (the
"Facility"), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth on the Term
Sheet attached hereto as Annex A (the "Loan Terms").

This Commitment Letter and the obligation of the Lender to make any loans
pursuant to the Facility is subject to and conditioned on the negotiation and
execution of definitive loan documents and the execution of security documents
(collectively, the "Definitive Agreements") evidencing the first lien on the
assets of the Borrowers.

The Lender acknowledges that the Borrowers have the right and ability to seek
alternative sources of financing on terms other than the Loan Terms and the
Borrowers are not obligated to borrow under the Facility. As a result, the
Lender will not begin preparation of the Definitive Agreements or take other
action until the Borrowers provide a written indication that they want to
proceed with the preparation of such Agreements and that they undertake to
reimburse the Lender for all costs and expenses incurred.

In the event that the Definitive Agreements are not executed on or before April
1, 2004, this Commitment Letter and the Lender's commitment hereunder shall
automatically terminate on April 1, 2004 unless the Lender shall, in its sole
discretion, agree in writing to an extension.

         (b) Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities. A Person is deemed to be
a holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (each, a "Holder") whenever such
Person owns Transfer Restricted Securities.

SECTION 3 REGISTERED EXCHANGE OFFER

         (a) Unless the Exchange Offer shall not be permissible under applicable
law or Commission policy (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a) below
have been complied with), the Company and the Guarantors shall (i) cause to be
filed with the Commission as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date, but
in no event later than 90 days after the Closing Date, a Registration Statement
under the Act relating to the Series B Notes (including the Subsidiary
Guarantees) and the Exchange Offer, (ii) use all commercially reasonable efforts
to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission
as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 180 days after the
Closing Date (which 180-day period shall be extended for a number of days equal
to the number of business days, if any, the Commission is officially closed
during such period), (iii) in connection with the foregoing, file (A) all
pre-effective amendments to such Registration Statement as may be necessary in
order to cause such Registration Statement to become effective, (B) if
applicable, a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement pursuant
to Rule 430A under the Act and (C) cause all necessary filings in connection
with the registration and qualification of the Series B Notes (including the
Subsidiary Guarantees) to be made under the Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions
as are necessary to permit Consummation of the Exchange Offer and (iv) upon the
effectiveness of such Registration Statement, commence the Exchange Offer. The
Exchange Offer shall be on the appropriate form permitting registration of the
Series B Notes (including the Subsidiary Guarantees) to be offered in exchange
for the Transfer Restricted Securities and to permit resales of Notes held by
Broker-Dealers as contemplated by Section 3(c) below.

         (b) The Company and the Guarantors shall cause the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement to be effective continuously and shall keep the Exchange
Offer open for a period of not less than the minimum period required under
applicable federal and state securities laws to Consummate the Exchange Offer;
provided, however, that in no event shall such period be less than 20 business
days. The Company and the Guarantors shall cause the Exchange Offer to comply
with all applicable federal and state securities laws. No securities other than
the Notes (including the Subsidiary Guarantees) shall be included in the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement. The Company and the Guarantors shall use
all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer to be
Consummated on the earliest practicable date after the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement has become effective, but in no event later than 30
business days thereafter.

         (c) The Company and the Guarantors shall indicate in a "Plan of
Distribution" section contained in the Prospectus contained in the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement that any Broker-Dealer who owns Series A Notes that
are Transfer Restricted Securities and that were acquired for its own account as
a result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than
Transfer Restricted Securities acquired directly from the Company), may exchange
such Series A Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer; however, such Broker-Dealer
may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Act and must,
therefore, deliver a Prospectus meeting the requirements of the Act in
connection with any resales of the Series B

                                       4

Notes received by such Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offer, which Prospectus
delivery requirement may be satisfied by the delivery by such Broker-Dealer of
the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. Such
"Plan of Distribution" section shall also contain all other information with
respect to such resales by Broker-Dealers that the Commission may require in
order to permit such resales pursuant thereto, but such "Plan of Distribution"
shall not name any such Broker-Dealer or disclose the amount of Notes held by
any such Broker-Dealer except to the extent required by the Commission.

         The Company and the Guarantors shall use all commercially reasonable
efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement continuously
effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions of Section
6(c) below to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for resales of
Notes acquired by Broker-Dealers for their own accounts as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities, and to ensure that it
conforms with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies,
rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a
period of 180 days from the date on which the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement is declared effective or such shorter period that will terminate when
all Notes covered by the Exchange Offer Registration Statement have been
exchanged in the Exchange Offer.

         The Company and the Guarantors shall provide sufficient copies of the
latest version of such Prospectus to Broker-Dealers promptly upon request at any
time during such 180 day period in order to facilitate such resales.

SECTION 4 SHELF REGISTRATION

         (a) Shelf Registration. If (i) the Company and the Guarantors are not
required to file the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or permitted to
Consummate the Exchange Offer because the Exchange Offer is not permitted by
applicable law or Commission policy (after the procedures set forth in Section
6(a) below have been complied with) or (ii) any Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities that is a "qualified institutional buyer," as such term is defined in
Rule 144A under the Act or an institutional "accredited investor," as such term
is defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) and (7) under the Act shall notify the
Company prior to the 20th day following the Consummation of the Exchange Offer
that such Holder alone or together with holders who hold in the aggregate at
least $1.0 million in principal amount of Series A Notes (A) is prohibited by
applicable law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange Offer, or
(B) may not resell the Series B Notes acquired by it in the Exchange Offer to
the public without delivering a prospectus and that the Prospectus contained in
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for
such resales by such Holder, or (C) is a Broker-Dealer and holds Series A Notes
acquired directly from the Company or an affiliate of the Company, the Company
and the Guarantors shall:

          (i) cause to be filed with the Commission a shelf Registration
        Statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act, which may be an amendment
        to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (in either event, the
        "Shelf Registration Statement") on or prior to the earliest to occur of
        (A) the 30th day after the date on which the Company determines that it
        is not required to file the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, or
        permitted to Consummate the Exchange Offer and (B) the 30th day after
        the date on which the

                                       5

        Company receives notice from a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities
        as contemplated by clause (ii) of paragraph (a) above (such earliest
        date being the "Shelf Filing Deadline"), which Shelf Registration
        Statement shall provide for resales of all Transfer Restricted
        Securities the Holders of which shall have provided the information
        required pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof; and

          (ii) use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Shelf
        Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission on or
        before the 90th day after the Shelf Filing Deadline.

The Company and the Guarantors shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to
keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and
amended as required by the provisions of Sections 6(b) and (d) hereof to the
extent necessary to ensure that it is available for resales of Notes by the
Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities entitled to the benefit of this
Section 4(a), and to ensure that it conforms with the requirements of this
Agreement, the Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as
announced from time to time, for a period of at least two years following the
Closing Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all Notes covered
by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf
Registration Statement or become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144
without volume or other restrictions.

         (b) Provision by Holders of Certain Information in Connection with the
Shelf Registration Statement. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may
include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf Registration
Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such Holder furnishes to
the Company in writing, within 10 business days after receipt of a request
therefor, such information as the Company may reasonably request for use in
connection with any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary
Prospectus included therein. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall
be entitled to additional interest pursuant to Section 5 hereof unless and until
such Holder shall have used its best efforts to provide all such reasonably
requested information. Each Holder as to which any Shelf Registration Statement
is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company all information
required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished
to the Company by such Holder not materially misleading.

SECTION 5 ADDITIONAL INTEREST

         If (i) any of the Registration Statements required by this Agreement is
not filed with the Commission on or prior to the date specified for such filing
in sections 3(a), 4(a), and 4(c), as applicable, (ii) any of such required
Registration Statements has not been declared effective by the Commission on or
prior to the date specified for such effectiveness in sections 3(a), 4(a), and
4(c), as applicable, (the "Effectiveness Target Date"), (iii) the Exchange Offer
has not been Consummated within 30 business days after the Effectiveness Target
Date with respect to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, or (iv) any
Registration Statement required by this Agreement is filed and declared
effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective or fail to be usable for
its intended purpose without being succeeded within five business days by a
post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that cures such failure
and that is itself immediately declared effective (each such event referred to
in clauses (i) through (iv), a

                                       6

"Registration Default"), the Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally
agree to pay additional interest to each Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities with respect to the first 90-day period immediately following the
occurrence of such Registration Default, in an amount equal to $.05 per week per
$1,000 principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder
for each week or portion thereof that the Registration Default continues. The
amount of the additional interest shall increase by an additional $.05 per week
per $1,000 in principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities with respect to
each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured,
up to a maximum amount of additional interest of $.50 per week per $1,000
principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities. The Company shall in no
event be required to pay additional interest for more than one Registration
Default at any given time. All accrued additional interest shall be paid to
Record Holders by the Company and the Guarantors by wire transfer of immediately
available funds or by federal funds check on each Damages Payment Date, as
provided in the Indenture. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults
relating to any particular Transfer Restricted Securities, the accrual of
additional interest with respect to such Transfer Restricted Securities will
cease.

         All payment obligations of the Company and the Guarantors set forth in
the preceding paragraph that are outstanding with respect to any Transfer
Restricted Security at the time such security ceases to be a Transfer Restricted
Security shall survive until such time as all such payment obligations with
respect to such Security shall have been satisfied in full provided, however,
that the additional interest shall cease to accrue on the day immediately prior
to the date such Transfer Restricted Securities cease to be Transfer Restricted
Securities.

SECTION 6 REGISTRATION PROCEDURES

         (a) Exchange Offer Registration Statement. In connection with the
Exchange Offer, the Company and the Guarantors shall comply with all of the
provisions of Section 6(c) below, shall use all commercially reasonable efforts
to effect such exchange to permit the sale of Transfer Restricted Securities
being sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution
thereof, and shall comply with all of the following provisions:

          (i) If in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company and the
        Guarantors there is a question as to whether the Exchange Offer is
        permitted by applicable law, the Company and the Guarantors hereby agree
        to seek a no-action letter or other favorable decision from the
        Commission allowing the Company and the Guarantors to Consummate an
        Exchange Offer for such Series A Notes. The Company and the Guarantors
        hereby agree to pursue the issuance of such a decision to the Commission
        staff level but shall not be required to take commercially unreasonable
        action to effect a change of Commission policy. The Company and the
        Guarantors hereby agree however, to (A) participate in telephonic
        conferences with the Commission, (B) deliver to the Commission staff an
        analysis prepared by counsel to the Company and the Guarantors setting
        forth the legal bases, if any, upon which such counsel has concluded
        that such an Exchange Offer should be permitted and (C) diligently
        pursue a resolution (which need not be favorable) by the Commission
        staff of such submission.

          (ii) As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer
        pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, each Holder of Transfer
        Restricted Securities shall furnish, upon the

                                       7

        request of the Company, prior to the Consummation thereof, a written
        representation to the Company and the Guarantors (which may be contained
        in the letter of transmittal contemplated by the Exchange Offer
        Registration Statement) to the effect that (A) it is not an affiliate of
        the Company, (B) it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in,
        and has no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate
        in, a distribution of the Series B Notes to be issued in the Exchange
        Offer and (C) it is acquiring the Series B Notes in its ordinary course
        of business. In addition, all such Holders of Transfer Restricted
        Securities shall otherwise cooperate in the Company's and the
        Guarantors' preparations for the Exchange Offer. Each Holder hereby
        acknowledges and agrees that any Broker-Dealer and any such Holder using
        the Exchange Offer to participate in a distribution of the securities to
        be acquired in the Exchange Offer (A) could not under Commission policy
        as in effect on the date of this Agreement rely on the position of the
        Commission enunciated in Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (available June 5,
        1991) and Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available May 13, 1988),
        as interpreted in the Commission's letter to Shearman & Sterling dated
        July 2, 1993, and similar no-action letters (including any no-action
        letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above), and (B) must comply with
        the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act in
        connection with a secondary resale transaction and that such a secondary
        resale transaction should be covered by an effective Registration
        Statement containing the selling security holder information required by
        Item 507 or 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K if the resales are of
        Series B Notes obtained by such Holder in exchange for Series A Notes
        acquired by such Holder directly from the Company.

          (iii) Prior to effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration
        Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall provide a supplemental
        letter to the Commission (A) stating that the Company and the Guarantors
        are registering the Exchange Offer in reliance on the position of the
        Commission enunciated in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available
        May 13, 1988), Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (available June 5, 1991)
        and, if applicable, any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i)
        above and (B) including a representation that neither the Company nor
        any Guarantor has entered into any arrangement or understanding with any
        Person to distribute the Series B Notes to be received in the Exchange
        Offer and that, to the best of the Company's and each Guarantor's
        information and belief, each Holder participating in the Exchange Offer
        is acquiring the Series B Notes in its ordinary course of business and
        has no arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in
        the distribution of the Series B Notes received in the Exchange Offer.

         (b) Shelf Registration Statement. In connection with the Shelf
Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall comply with all the
provisions of Section 6(c) below and shall use all commercially reasonable
efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of the Transfer
Restricted Securities being sold in accordance with the intended method or
methods of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company and the
Guarantors will as expeditiously as possible prepare and file with the
Commission a Registration Statement relating to the registration on any
appropriate form under the Act, which form shall be available for the sale of
the Transfer Restricted Securities in accordance with the intended method or
methods of distribution thereof.

                                       8

         (c) General Provisions. In connection with any Registration Statement
and any Prospectus required by this Agreement to permit the sale or resale of
Transfer Restricted Securities (including, without limitation, any Registration
Statement and the related Prospectus required to permit resales of Notes by
Broker-Dealers), the Company and the Guarantors shall:

          (i) use all commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration
        Statement continuously effective and provide all requisite financial
        statements (including, if required by the Act or any regulation
        thereunder, financial statements of any Guarantors) for the period
        specified in Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement, as applicable; upon the
        occurrence of any event that would cause any such Registration Statement
        or the Prospectus contained therein (A) to contain a material
        misstatement or omission or (B) not to be effective and usable for
        resale of Transfer Restricted Securities during the period required by
        this Agreement, the Company and the Guarantors shall file promptly an
        appropriate amendment to such Registration Statement, in the case of
        clause (A), correcting any such misstatement or omission, and, in the
        case of either clause (A) or (B), use all commercially reasonable
        efforts to cause such amendment to be declared effective and such
        Registration Statement and the related Prospectus to become usable for
        their intended purpose(s) as soon as practicable thereafter.
        Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after Consummation of the
        Exchange Offer, the Company and the Guarantors may allow the Shelf
        Registration Statement to cease to become effective and usable if (A)
        the board of directors of the Company determines in good faith that it
        is in the best interests of the Company not to disclose the existence of
        or facts surrounding any proposed or pending material corporate
        transaction involving the Company and the Guarantors, and the Company
        notifies the Holders within two business days after the Board of
        Directors makes such determination, or (B) the Prospectus contained in
        the Shelf Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of the
        material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to
        make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
        they were made, not misleading; provided that the two-year period
        referred to in Section 4(a) hereof during which the Shelf Registration
        Statement is required to be effective and usable shall be extended by
        the number of days during which such Registration Statement was not
        effective or usable pursuant to the foregoing provisions;

          (ii) subject to Section 6(c)(i), prepare and file with the Commission
        such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration
        Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement
        effective for the applicable period set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof,
        as applicable, or such shorter period as will terminate when all
        Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement
        have been sold; cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required
        Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to
        Rule 424 under the Act, and to comply fully with the applicable
        provisions of Rules 424 and 430A under the Act in a timely manner; and
        comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of
        all securities covered by such Registration Statement during the
        applicable period in accordance with the intended method or methods of
        distribution by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration
        Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;

                                        9

          (iii) advise the underwriter(s), if any, and selling Holders of
        Transfer Restricted Securities and, if requested by such Persons, to
        confirm such advice in writing, (A) when the Prospectus or any
        Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and,
        with respect to any Registration Statement or any post-effective
        amendment thereto, when the same has become effective, (B) of any
        request by the Commission for amendments to the Registration Statement
        or amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for additional
        information relating thereto, (C) of the issuance by the Commission of
        any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
        Statement under the Act or of the suspension by any state securities
        commission of the qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities
        for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any
        proceeding for any of the preceding purposes and (D) of the existence of
        any fact or the happening of any event that makes any statement of a
        material fact made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any
        amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by
        reference therein untrue, or that requires the making of any additions
        to or changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order
        to make the statements therein not misleading. If at any time the
        Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of
        the Registration Statement, or any state securities commission or other
        regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification
        or exemption from qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities
        under state securities or Blue Sky laws, the Company and the Guarantors
        shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal
        or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time;

          (iv) upon written request, furnish to each of the selling Holders of
        Transfer Restricted Securities and each of the underwriter(s), if any,
        before filing with the Commission, copies of any Registration Statement
        or any Prospectus included therein or any amendments or supplements to
        any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (including all documents
        incorporated by reference after the initial filing of such Registration
        Statement), which documents will be subject to the review of such
        Holders and underwriter(s), if any, for a period of at least five
        business days, and the Company and the Guarantors will not file any such
        Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to
        any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (including all such
        documents incorporated by reference) if a selling Holder of Transfer
        Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement or the
        underwriter(s), if any, shall reasonably object within 5 business days
        after receipt thereof;

          (v) upon written request, promptly prior to the filing of any document
        that is to be incorporated by reference into a Registration Statement or
        Prospectus, provide copies of such document to the selling Holders and
        to the underwriter(s), if any, make the Company's and the Guarantors'
        representatives available for discussion of such document and other
        customary due diligence matters, and include such information in such
        document prior to the filing thereof as such selling Holders or
        underwriter(s), if any, reasonably may request;

          (vi) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, make available at
        reasonable times at the Company's principal place of business for
        inspection by the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities, any
        underwriter participating in any disposition

                                       10

        pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney or accountant
        retained by such selling Holders or any of the underwriter(s) who shall
        certify to the Company and the Guarantors that they have a current
        intention to sell Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Shelf
        Registration Statement, such financial and other information of the
        Company and the Guarantors as reasonably requested and cause the
        Company's and the Guarantors' officers, directors and employees to
        respond to such inquiries as shall be reasonably necessary, in the
        reasonable judgment of counsel to such Holders, to conduct a reasonable
        investigation; provided, however, that each such party shall be required
        to maintain in confidence and not to disclose to any other person any
        information or records reasonably designated by the Company in writing
        as being confidential, until such time as (A) such information becomes a
        matter of public record (whether by virtue of its inclusion in such
        Registration Statement or otherwise), or (B) such person shall be
        required so to disclose such information pursuant to the subpoena or
        order of any court or other governmental agency or body having
        jurisdiction over the matter (subject to the requirements of such order,
        and only after such person shall have given the Company prompt prior
        written notice of such requirement), or (C) such information is required
        to be set forth in such Registration Statement or the Prospectus
        included therein or in an amendment to such Registration Statement or an
        amendment or supplement to such Prospectus in order that such
        Registration Statement, Prospectus, amendment or supplement, as the case
        may be, does not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
        to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
        necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

          (vii) if requested by any selling Holders of Transfer Restricted
        Securities or the underwriter(s), if any, promptly incorporate in any
        Registration Statement or Prospectus, pursuant to a supplement or
        post-effective amendment if necessary, such information as such selling
        Holders and underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request to have
        included therein, including, without limitation, information relating to
        the "Plan of Distribution" of the Transfer Restricted Securities
        information with respect to the principal amount of Transfer Restricted
        Securities being sold to such underwriter(s), the purchase price being
        paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Transfer
        Restricted Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required
        filings of such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as
        soon as practicable after the Company is notified of the matters to be
        incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment;

          (viii) upon request, furnish to each selling Holder of Transfer
        Restricted Securities and each of the underwriter(s), if any, without
        charge, at least one copy of the Registration Statement, as first filed
        with the Commission, and of each amendment thereto, including all
        documents incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits (including
        exhibits incorporated therein by reference);

          (ix) deliver to each selling Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities
        and each of the underwriter(s), if any, without charge, as many copies
        of the Prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) and any
        amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons reasonably may request;
        the Company and the Guarantors hereby consent to the use of the
        Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the
        selling Holders and each of the underwriter(s), if any, in connection
        with the offering and the sale of the

                                       11

        Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Prospectus or any
        amendment or supplement thereto;

          (x) enter into such agreements (including an underwriting agreement),
        and make such representations and warranties, and take all such other
        actions in connection therewith in order to expedite or facilitate the
        disposition of the Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to any
        Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement, all to such
        extent as may be requested by the Initial Purchaser or, in the case of
        registration for resale of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to
        the Shelf Registration Statement, by any Holder or Holders of Transfer
        Restricted Securities who hold at least 25% in aggregate principal
        amount of such class of Transfer Restricted Securities; provided, that,
        the Company and the Guarantors shall not be required to enter into any
        such agreement more than once with respect to all of the Transfer
        Restricted Securities and, in the case of a Shelf Registration
        Statement, may delay entering into such agreement if the Board of
        Directors of the Company determines in good faith that it is in the best
        interests of the Company and the Guarantors not to disclose the
        existence of or facts surrounding any proposed or pending material
        corporate transaction involving the Company and the Guarantors; and
        whether or not an underwriting agreement is entered into and whether or
        not the registration is an Underwritten Registration, the Company and
        the Guarantors shall:

            (A) furnish to the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of Transfer
          Restricted Securities who hold at least 25% in aggregate principal
          amount of such class of Transfer Restricted Securities (in the case of
          a Shelf Registration Statement) and each underwriter, if any, in such
          substance and scope as they may request and as are customarily made in
          connection with an offering of debt securities pursuant to a
          Registration Statement (i) upon the effective date of any Registration
          Statement (and if such Registration Statement contemplates an
          Underwritten Offering of Transfer Restricted Securities upon the date
          of the closing under the underwriting agreement related thereto) and
          (ii) upon the filing of any amendment or supplement to any
          Registration Statement or any other document that is incorporated in
          any Registration Statement by reference and includes financial data
          with respect to a fiscal quarter or year:

              (1) a certificate, dated the date of effectiveness of the Shelf
            Registration Statement signed by (y) the respective Chairman of the
            Board, the respective President or any Vice President and (z) the
            respective Chief Financial Officer of the Company and each of the
            Guarantors confirming, as of the date thereof, the matters set forth
            in paragraph (i) of Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement and such
            other matters as such parties may reasonably request;

              (2) an opinion, dated the date of effectiveness of the Shelf
            Registration Statement, as the case may be, of counsel for the
            Company covering the matters set forth in paragraphs (c), (d) and
            (e) of Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement and such other matter as
            such parties may reasonably request, and in any event including a
            statement to the effect that such counsel has participated in
            conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company,

                                       12

            representatives of the independent public accountants for the
            Company, the Initial Purchasers' representatives and the Initial
            Purchasers' counsel in connection with the preparation of such
            Registration Statement and the related Prospectus and have
            considered the matters required to be stated therein and the
            statements contained therein, although such counsel has not
            independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of
            such statements; and that such counsel advises that, on the basis of
            the foregoing (relying as to materiality to a large extent upon
            facts provided to such counsel by officers and other representatives
            of the Company and without independent check or verification), no
            facts came to such counsel's attention that caused such counsel to
            believe that the applicable Registration Statement, at the time such
            Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto
            became effective, and, in the case of the Exchange Offer
            Registration Statement, as of the date of Consummation, contained an
            untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material
            fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
            statements therein not misleading, or that the Prospectus contained
            in such Registration Statement as of its date and, in the case of
            the opinion dated the date of Consummation of the Exchange Offer, as
            of the date of Consummation, contained an untrue statement of a
            material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order
            to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
            which they were made, not misleading. Such counsel may state further
            that such counsel assumes no responsibility for, and has not
            independently verified, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of
            the financial statements, notes and schedules and other financial
            data included in any Registration Statement contemplated by this
            Agreement or the related Prospectus; and

              (3) a customary comfort letter, dated as of the date of
            Consummation of the Exchange Offer or the date of effectiveness of
            the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, from the
            Company's independent accountants, in the customary form and
            covering matters of the type customarily covered in comfort letters
            by underwriters in connection with primary underwritten offerings,
            and affirming the matters set forth in the comfort letters delivered
            pursuant to Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement, without exception;

            (B) set forth in full or incorporated by reference in the
          underwriting agreement, if any, the indemnification provisions and
          procedures of Section 8 hereof with respect to all parties to be
          indemnified pursuant to said Section; and

            (C) deliver such other documents and certificates as may be
          reasonably requested by such parties to evidence compliance with
          clause (A) above and with any customary conditions contained in the
          underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company
          and the Guarantors pursuant to this clause (x), if any.

          (xi) prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Securities,
        cooperate with the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities,
        the underwriter(s), if any, and their respective counsel in connection
        with the registration and qualification of the Transfer Restricted
        Securities under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions
        as the

                                       13

        selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or underwriter(s) may
        reasonably request and do any and all other acts or things necessary or
        advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
        Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration
        Statement filed pursuant to Section 4 hereof; provided, however, that
        the Company and the Guarantors shall not be required to register or
        qualify as a foreign corporation where it is not now so qualified or to
        take any action that would subject it to the service of process in suits
        or to taxation, other than as to matters and transactions relating to
        the Registration Statement, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so
        subject;

          (xii) shall issue, upon the request of any Holder of Series A Notes
        covered by the Shelf Registration Statement, Series B Notes, having an
        aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of
        Series A Notes surrendered to the Company by such Holder in exchange
        therefor or being sold by such Holder; such Series B Notes to be
        registered in the name of such Holder or in the name of the purchaser(s)
        of such Notes, as the case may be; in return, the Series A Notes held by
        such Holder shall be surrendered to the Company for cancellation;

          (xiii) cooperate with the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted
        Securities and the underwriter(s), if any, to facilitate the timely
        preparation and delivery of certificates representing Transfer
        Restricted Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive
        legends; and enable such Transfer Restricted Securities to be in such
        denominations and registered in such names as the Holders or the
        underwriter(s), if any, may request at least two business days prior to
        any sale of Transfer Restricted Securities made by such underwriter(s);

          (xiv) use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Transfer
        Restricted Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be
        registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or
        authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof
        or the underwriter(s), if any, to consummate the disposition of such
        Transfer Restricted Securities, subject to the proviso contained in
        clause (xi) above;

          (xv) subject to clause (d)(i) above, if any fact or event contemplated
        by clause (d)(iii)(D) above shall exist or have occurred, prepare a
        supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or
        related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or
        file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the
        purchasers of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Prospectus will not
        contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
        material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
        statements therein not misleading;

          (xvi) provide a CUSIP number for all Transfer Restricted Securities
        not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement and
        provide the Trustee under the Indenture with printed certificates for
        the Transfer Restricted Securities which are in a form eligible for
        deposit with The Depository Trust Company;

          (xvii) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with
        the NASD and in the performance of any due diligence investigation by
        any underwriter (including any

                                       14

        "qualified independent underwriter") that is required to be retained in
        accordance with the rules and regulations of the NASD;

          (xviii) otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply
        with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make
        generally available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, a
        consolidated earnings statement meeting the requirements of Rule 158
        (which need not be audited) for the twelve-month period (A) commencing
        at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Transfer Restricted Securities
        are sold to underwriters in a firm or best efforts Underwritten Offering
        or (B) if not sold to underwriters in such an offering, beginning with
        the first month of the Company's first fiscal quarter commencing after
        the effective date of the Registration Statement;

          (xix) cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA not later than
        the effective date of the first Registration Statement required by this
        Agreement, and, in connection therewith, cooperate with the Trustee and
        the Holders of Notes to effect such changes to the Indenture as may be
        required for such Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the
        terms of the TIA; and execute, and use all commercially reasonable
        efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents that may be
        required to effect such changes and all other forms and documents
        required to be filed with the Commission to enable such Indenture to be
        so qualified in a timely manner;

          (xx) provide promptly to each Holder upon request each document filed
        with the Commission pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 and
        Section 15 of the Exchange Act; and

          (xxi) so long as any Transfer Restricted Securities remain
        outstanding, cause each Additional Guarantor upon the creation or
        acquisition by the Company of such Additional Guarantor, to execute a
        counterpart to this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex A and
        to deliver such counterpart, together with an opinion of counsel as to
        the enforceability thereof against such entity, to the Initial
        Purchasers no later than five business days following the execution
        thereof.

         Each Holder agrees by acquisition of a Transfer Restricted Security
that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the existence of any fact
of the kind described in Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof, such Holder will forthwith
discontinue disposition and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause any
underwriter to forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer Restricted
Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement until such Holder's
receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by
Section 6(c)(xv) hereof, or until it is advised in writing (the "Advice") by the
Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies
of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated by reference in
the Prospectus. If so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the
Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies
then in such Holder's possession, of the Prospectus covering such Transfer
Restricted Securities that was current at the time of receipt of such notice. In
the event the Company shall give any such notice, the time period regarding the
effectiveness of such Registration Statement set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof,
as applicable, shall be extended by the number of days during the period from
and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section
6(c)(iii)(D) hereof to

                                       15

and including the date when each selling Holder covered by such Registration
Statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended
Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(d)(xv) hereof or shall have received the
Advice.

         The Company and the Guarantors may require each Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities as to which any registration is being effected to furnish
to the Company such information regarding such Holder and such Holder's intended
method of distribution of the applicable Transfer Restricted Securities as the
Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing, but only to the
extent that such information is required in order to comply with the Act. Each
such Holder agrees to notify the Company as promptly as practicable of (i) any
inaccuracy or change in information previously furnished by such Holder to the
Company or (ii) the occurrence of any event, in either case, as a result of
which any Prospectus relating to such registration contains or would contain an
untrue statement of a material fact regarding such Holder or such Holder's
intended method of distribution of the applicable Transfer Restricted Securities
or omits to state any material fact regarding such Holder or such Holder's
intended method of distribution of the applicable Transfer Restricted Securities
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading and promptly to furnish to the Company any additional information
required to correct and update any previously furnish to the Company any
additional information required to correct and update any previously furnished
information or required so that such Prospectus shall not contain, with respect
to such Holder or the distribution of the applicable Transfer Restricted
Securities an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading.

         Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party to this
Agreement (and any employee, representative, or other agent of any party to this
Agreement) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind,
the U.S. federal income tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (the "Transactions") and all materials of any
kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating
to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided, however, that neither party
(nor any employee, representative or other agent thereof) shall disclose any
information (a) that is not relevant to an understanding of the U.S. federal
income tax treatment or tax structure of the Transactions or (b) to the extent
such disclosure could result in a violation of any federal or state securities
laws.

any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special
experts, retained by the Company or the Guarantors.

SECTION 8 INDEMNIFICATION

         (a) The Company and the Guarantors shall, jointly and severally,
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, its
officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls any such Holders,
within the meaning of the Securities Act, from and against any loss, claim,
damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof
(including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action
relating to purchases, sales and registration of Notes), to which that Holder,
officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities
Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained (A) in any Registration Statement or
Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (B) in any blue sky
application or other document prepared or executed by the Company or any
Guarantor (or based upon any written information furnished by the Company or any
Guarantor) specifically for the purpose of qualifying any or all of the Notes
under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction (any such
application, document or information being hereinafter called a "Blue Sky
Application"), (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any
Registration Statement or Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto,
or in any Blue Sky Application any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any act or
failure to act or any alleged act or failure to act by any Holder in connection
with, or relating in any manner to, the Notes or the offering contemplated
hereby, and which is included as part of or referred to in any loss, claim,
damage, liability or action arising out of or based upon matters covered by
clause (i) or (ii) above (provided that the Company and the Guarantors shall not
be liable under this clause (iii) to the extent that it is determined in a final
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action resulted directly from any such acts or failures to act
undertaken or omitted to be taken by such Holder through its gross negligence or
willful misconduct), and shall reimburse each Holder and each such officer,
employee or controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by that Holder, officer, employee or controlling
person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend
against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are
incurred; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors shall not be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any
Registration Statement or Prospectus, or in any such amendment or supplement, or
in any Blue Sky Application, in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information concerning such Holder furnished to the Company by or on behalf of
any Holder specifically for inclusion therein. The foregoing indemnity agreement
is in addition to any liability which the Company and the Guarantors may
otherwise have to any Holder or to any officer, employee or controlling person
of that Holder.

                                       17

         (b) Each Holder, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Company and the Guarantors, their respective officers and
employees, each of their respective directors, and each person, if any, who
controls the Company or the Guarantors within the meaning of the Securities Act,
from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any
action in respect thereof, to which the Company, the Guarantors or any such
director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities
Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained (A) in any Registration Statement or
Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or (B) in any Blue Sky
Application or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any
Registration Statement or Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto,
or in any Blue Sky Application any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case
only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information concerning such Holders furnished to the Company by or on
behalf of that Holder specifically for inclusion therein, and shall reimburse
the Company, the Guarantors and any such director, officer or controlling person
for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company, the
Guarantors or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection
with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred. The foregoing
indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which any Holder may
otherwise have to the Company, the Guarantors or any such director, officer,
employee or controlling person. The Company and the Guarantors shall be entitled
to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and
similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution of
such Registrable Securities to the same extent as provided above with respect to
information or affidavit furnished in writing by such Persons as provided
specifically for in any Prospectus or Registration Statement.

         (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8
of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party
shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying
party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to
notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it
may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially
prejudiced by such failure and, provided further, that the failure to notify the
indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to
an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such claim or
action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the
indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to
participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other
similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the
indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the
defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to
the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, any
indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
action and to participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of
such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnified party unless (i) the
employment thereof

                                       18

has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying party in writing, (ii) such
indemnified party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one
or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to
those available to the indemnifying party and in the reasonable judgment of such
counsel it is advisable for such indemnified party to employ separate counsel or
(iii) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action and
employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in which case,
if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it
elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the
indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action
on behalf of such indemnified party, it being understood, however, that the
indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate
but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising
out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the
reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in
addition to one local counsel) at any time for all such indemnified parties,
which firm shall be designated in writing by Lehman Brothers Inc., if the
indemnified parties under this Section 8 consist of any Initial Purchaser or any
of their respective officers, employees or controlling persons, or by the
Company, if the indemnified parties under this Section consist of the Company,
the Guarantors or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or
controlling persons. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written
consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with
respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in
respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder
(whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such
claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an
unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out
of such claim, action, suit or proceeding, or (ii) be liable for any settlement
of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying
party or if there be a final judgment of the plaintiff in any such action, the
indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party
from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

         (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 shall for any
reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party
under Section 8(a) or 8(b) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability,
or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying
party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss,
claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion
as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company
and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders on the other, from the
offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is
not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the
relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand and the
Holders on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted
in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received
by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand and the Holders on the other
with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as
the total net proceeds from the offering of the Series A Notes purchased under
the Purchase Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and
the Guarantors, on the one

                                       19

hand, and the total discounts and commissions received by the Holders with
respect to the Series A Notes purchased under this Agreement, on the other hand,
bear to the total gross proceeds from the offering of the Series A Notes under
the Purchase Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Company, the Guarantors or the Holders, the intent of the parties and their
relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission. The Company, the Guarantors and the Holders agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this
Section 8(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders
were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of
allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations
referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a
result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof,
referred to above in this Section shall be deemed to include, for purposes of
this Section 8(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action
or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), no Holder shall
be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net
proceeds received by it in connection with its sale of Notes exceeds the amount
of any damages which such Holder has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by
reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders'
obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 8(d) are several and not
joint.

SECTION 9 RULE 144A

         The Company and each Guarantor hereby agrees with each Holder of
Transfer Restricted Securities, during any period in which the Company or such
Guarantor is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act within the
two-year period following the Closing Date, to make available to any Holder or
beneficial owner of Transfer Restricted Securities, in connection with any sale
thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Transfer Restricted Securities
from such Holder or beneficial owner, the information required by Rule
144A(d)(4) under the Act in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted
Securities pursuant to Rule 144A.

SECTION 10 PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS

         No Holder may participate in any Underwritten Registration hereunder
unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder's Transfer Restricted
Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by
the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes
and executes all reasonable questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and other documents required under the
terms of such underwriting arrangements.

SECTION 11 SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS

         The Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf
Registration Statement who desire to do so may sell such Transfer Restricted
Securities in an Underwritten

                                       20

Offering at such Holders' expense. In any such Underwritten Offering, the
investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will
administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities included in
such offering; provided, that such investment bankers and managers must be
reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

SECTION 12 MISCELLANEOUS

         (a) Remedies. The Company and the Guarantors agree that monetary
damages (including the additional interest contemplated hereby) would not be
adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the
provisions of this Agreement and hereby agree to waive the defense in any action
for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

         (b) No Inconsistent Agreements. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor
will, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with
respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the
Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.
Except as disclosed in the Offering Memorandum or in the documents incorporated
therein by reference, neither the Company nor any Guarantor has previously
entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to its
securities to any Person that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.
The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and
are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Company's or
any Guarantor's securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof.

         (c) Adjustments Affecting the Notes. The Company and the Guarantors
will not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to the
Notes that would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Holders to
Consummate any Exchange Offer.

         (d) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be
amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from
the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Company has obtained the
written consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of
Transfer Restricted Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or
consent to departure from the provisions hereof that relates exclusively to the
rights of Holders whose securities are being tendered pursuant to the Exchange
Offer and that does not affect directly or indirectly the rights of other
Holders whose securities are not being tendered pursuant to such Exchange Offer
may be given by the Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of
Transfer Restricted Securities being tendered or registered.

         (e) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or
