            (c) a statement that, in the opinion of each such individual, he has

or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all

Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

            Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company may be
based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of,
or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are
erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as
it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or
representations by, an officer or officers of the Company stating that the
information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the
Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should
know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such
matters are erroneous.

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

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

<PAGE>
                                       20

any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 315)

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

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

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

      in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

            Section 107. Notice to Holders; Waiver.

            Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event,
such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder
affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register,
not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is
given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any
notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such
notice with respect to other Holders. Any notice when mailed to a Holder in the
aforesaid manner shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such
Holder whether or not actually received by such Holder.

            Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice
may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either
before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such
notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such
filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver.

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

            Section 108. Conflict of Any Provision of Indenture with Trust
Indenture Act.

            If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits,
qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by Trust Indenture Act Sections
310 to 318, inclusive, or

<PAGE>
                                       22

conflicts with any provision (an "incorporated provision") required by or deemed
to be included in this Indenture by operation of such Trust Indenture Act
Sections, such imposed duties or incorporated provision shall control. If any
provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust
Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be
deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or excluded, as the case may
be.

            Section 109. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

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

            Section 110. Successors and Assigns.

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

            Section 111. Separability Clause.

            In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby.

            Section 112. Benefits of Indenture.

            Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied,
shall give to any Person (other than the parties hereto and their successors
hereunder, any Paying Agent and the Holders) any benefit or any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

            Section 113. Governing Law.

            This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to
conflicts of laws principles.

            This Indenture is subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture
Act that are required to be part of this Indenture and shall, to the extent
applicable, be governed by such provisions.

            Section 114. Legal Holidays.

            In any case where any Interest Payment Date, any date established
for payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section 307, or any Maturity with
respect to any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any
other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest or
principal need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding
Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment
Date, or date established for payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section
307, or

<PAGE>
                                       23

Maturity, and no interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the
period from and after such Interest Payment Date, or date established for
payment of Defaulted Interest pursuant to Section 307, or Maturity, as the case
may be, to the next succeeding Business Day.

            Section 115. No Recourse Against Others.

            A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the
Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under
the Securities or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by
reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting any of
the Securities waives and releases all such liability.

            CSC Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (herein called the
"Company", which term includes any successor entity under this Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
_________________ or registered assigns the principal sum of ______ Dollars on
April 1, 2011, at the office or agency of the Company referred to below, and to
pay interest thereon on October 1, 2001, and semiannually thereafter, on April 1
and October 1 in each year from the Securities Issue Date or from the most
recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided
for at the rate of 7 5/8% per annum until the principal hereof is paid or duly
provided for, and (to the extent lawful) to pay on demand interest on any
overdue interest at the rate borne by the Securities from the date of the
Interest Payment Date on which such overdue interest becomes payable to the date
payment of such interest has been made or duly provided for.

                                       25

            [The Holder of this Security is entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement, dated March 22, 2001 (the "Registration Rights
Agreement"), between the Company and the Initial Purchasers named therein. In
the event that either (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act (the
"Exchange Offer Registration Statement") with respect to an exchange offer (the
"Exchange Offer") for this Initial Security is not filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on or prior to May 21, 2001 or (ii) the
Exchange Offer is not consummated or a registration statement under the
Securities Act with respect to resales of this Security (the "Shelf Registration
Statement") is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to September
18, 2001, in either case in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement,
the aforesaid interest rate borne by this Security shall be increased by
one-quarter of one percent per annum for the first 30 days following May 21,
2001 in the case of (i) above, or the first 90 days following September 18, 2001
in the case of (ii) above. Such interest rate will increase by an additional
one-quarter of one percent per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 30-day
period in the case of (i) above, or 90-day period in the case of (ii) above, up
to a maximum aggregate increase of one percent per annum. Upon (x) the filing of
a registration statement with respect to the Exchange Offer or (y) the
consummation of the Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration
Statement, as the case may be, the interest rate borne by this Security will be
reduced to 7 5/8% per annum.]**

            If any interest has accrued on this Security in respect of any
period prior to the issuance of this Security, such interest will be payable in
respect of such period at the rate or rates borne by the Predecessor Security
surrendered in exchange for this Security from time to time during such period.
The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person
in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
interest, which shall be the March 15 or September 15 (whether or not a Business
Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such
interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for, and interest on such
defaulted interest at the interest rate borne by this Security, to the extent
lawful, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record
Date, and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the
Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities not less than 10
days prior

                                       26

to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful
manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on
which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by
such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Payment of the
principal of and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency
of the Company maintained for that purpose in The City of New York, or at such
other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such purpose, in
such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment
is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that
payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to
the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the
Security Register.

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

            Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been duly
executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature,
this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture, or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose.

            Section 203. Form of Reverse of Security.

            This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company designated as its 7 5/8% [Series B]* Senior Notes due 2011 (herein
called the "Securities"), limited (except as otherwise provided in this
Indenture referred to below) in aggregate principal amount to $1,000,000,000,
which may be issued under an indenture (herein called the "Indenture") dated as
of March 22, 2001, between the Company and The Bank of New York, trustee (herein

Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference
is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the
holders of the Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Securities, and of the
terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

            [This Security is exchangeable under certain circumstances as
provided in the Indenture for the Company's 7 5/8% Series B Senior Notes due
2011 (herein called the "Exchange Securities", issued under the Indenture.
Unless the context otherwise requires, the Securities and Exchange Securities
shall constitute one series for all purposes under the Indenture, including
without limitation amendments and waivers.]**

            This Security is not subject to redemption at the option of the
Company prior to Maturity.

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

            The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a)
the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Security and (b) certain
restrictive covenants and the related Defaults and Events of Default, upon
compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which
provisions apply to this Security.

            This Security does not have the benefit of any sinking fund
obligations.

            The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided,
the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders under the Indenture at any time by the
Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding. The
Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified
percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time
Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance
by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past
defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver
by or on behalf of the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding
upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any
Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor
or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon
this Security.

            No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and
interest on this Security at the times, place, and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed.

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

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

            No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or other
governmental charges payable in connection with any registration of transfer or
exchange.

registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company
or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as

neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.

principles thereof.

            Any Global Security authenticated and delivered hereunder shall bear

            THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE
      INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A
      DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE EXCHANGED IN

      SECURITY IN WHOLE OR IN PART MAY BE REGISTERED, IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON
      OTHER THAN SUCH DEPOSITORY OR ITS NOMINEE EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED
      CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.

            UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE

                                  ARTICLE THREE

                                 THE SECURITIES

            Section 301. Title and Terms.

            The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be
authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is limited to $1,000,000,000,
except for Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer
of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities pursuant to Section 303,
304, 305, 306 or 906.

            The Initial Securities shall be known and designated as the "7 5/8%
Senior Notes due 2011" and the Exchange Securities shall be known and designated
as the "7 5/8% Series B Senior Notes due 2011" of the Company. Their Stated
Maturity shall be April 1, 2011, and they shall bear interest at the rate of 7
5/8% per annum (except as otherwise provided for in the form of Security) from
the Security Issue Date, or the most recent Interest Payment Date to which
interest has been paid or duly provided for on a given Security or a Security
surrendered in exchange for such Security, as the case may be, payable on
October 1, 2001 and semiannually thereafter on April 1 and October 1 in each
year and at said Stated Maturity, until the principal thereof is paid or duly
provided for. The initial Interest Payment Date for any Security other than the
Initial Securities shall be the first October 1 or April 1 occurring after the
Security Issue Date for such Security. The initial Interest Payment Date for
each Initial Security shall be October 1, 2001. The Initial Securities and the
Exchange Securities shall rank pari passu.

            The principal of and interest on the Securities shall be payable at
the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in The City of
New York, or at such other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained
for such purpose; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company, cash
interest may be paid by check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled
thereto as such addresses shall appear on the Security Register.

            The Securities are not subject to redemption at the option of the
Company.

            At the election of the Company, the entire indebtedness represented
by the Securities or certain of the Company's obligations and covenants and
certain Events of Default thereunder may be defeased as provided in Article
Twelve.

            The Securities will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company
and will rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future
unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company.

            Section 302. Denominations.

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

<PAGE>
                                       35

            Section 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

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

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

            The Trustee shall (upon Company Order) authenticate and deliver
Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of up to
$1,000,000,000.

            Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

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

            In case the Company, pursuant to Article Eight, shall be
consolidated or merged with or into any other Person or shall convey, transfer,
lease or otherwise dispose of substantially all of its properties and assets to
any Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or
surviving such merger, or into which the Company shall have been merged, or the
successor Person which shall have received a conveyance, transfer, Lease or
other disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental
hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article Eight, any of the Securities
authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance,
transfer, Lease or other disposition may, from time to time, at the request of
the successor Person, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of
the successor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be
appropriate, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Securities
surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee,
upon written order of the successor Person, shall authenticate and deliver
Securities as specified in such request for the purpose of such exchange. If
Securities shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a
successor Person pursuant to this Section 303 in exchange or substitution for or
upon registration of transfer of any Securities, such successor Person, at the
option of any Holder but without expense to such Holder, shall provide for the
exchange of all Securities at the time Outstanding held by such Holder for
Securities authenticated and delivered in such new name.

<PAGE>
                                       36

            Except as described below, the Securities will be deposited with, or
on behalf of, the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or
the nominee of the Depository in the form of one or more global note
certificates (each a "Rule 144A Global Security"), for credit to the respective
accounts of the beneficial owners of the Securities represented thereby. The
Rule 144A Global Securities shall bear the legend set forth in Section 206 and,
in the case of Restricted Securities, the legend set forth in Section 205.

            Securities purchased by persons outside the United States pursuant
to sales in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act shall be
deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depository, and registered in the name of
the Depository or the nominee of the Depository in the form of one or more
global note certificates (each a "Regulation S Global Security"), for credit to
the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of the Securities represented
thereby (or such other accounts as they may direct), provided that upon such
deposit all such Securities shall be credited to or through accounts maintained
at the Depository by or on behalf of the Euroclear System or Cedel Bank, S.A.
Securities represented by a Regulation S Global Security will not be
exchangeable for Securities in registered definitive form (each a "Physical
Security") until the expiration of the "40-day restricted period" within the
meaning of Rule 903(c)(3) of Regulation S under the Securities Act. The
Regulation S Global Securities shall bear the legend set forth in Section 206
and, in the case of Restricted Securities, the legend set forth in Section 205.

            Section 304. Temporary Securities.

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

            If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause
definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be
exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary
Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose
pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like
principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Until so
exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the
same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities.

            Section 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

            The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other
office or agency designated

<PAGE>
                                       37

pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes referred to as the "Security
Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of
Securities. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed "Security Registrar" for
the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein
provided. Such Security Register shall distinguish between Initial Securities
and Exchange Securities.

            Except as otherwise described in this Article Three, upon surrender
for registration of transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the
Company designated pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose, the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any
authorized denomination or denominations and of a like aggregate principal
amount.

            At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other
Securities of any authorized denomination or denominations and of a like
aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at
such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive; provided
that no exchange of Initial Securities for Exchange Securities shall occur until
an Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by
the Commission, the Trustee shall have received an Officers' Certificate
confirming that the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has been declared
effective by the Commission and the Initial Securities to be exchanged for the
Exchange Securities shall be canceled by the Trustee.

            All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange
of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same
debt, and (subject to the provisions in the Initial Securities regarding the
payment of additional interest) entitled to the same benefits under this
Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or
exchange.

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

            Every Restricted Security shall be subject to, and no transfer shall
be made other than in accordance with, the restrictions on transfer provided in
the legend set forth on the form of the face of each Restricted Security and the
restrictions set forth in this Article Three, and the Holder of each Restricted
Security, by such Holder's acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by such
restrictions on transfer.

            The Security Registrar shall notify the Company of any proposed
transfer of a Restricted Security to any Person.

<PAGE>
                                       38

            No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or other
governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section
303, 304 or 906 not involving any transfer.

            The Company shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of
or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
days before an Interest Payment Date and ending on the close of business on such
Interest Payment Date.

            Section 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

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

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

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

            Every replacement Security issued pursuant to this Section 306 in
lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute a contractual
obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all
benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Securities duly issued hereunder.

            The provisions of this Section 306 are exclusive and shall preclude
(to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

            Section 307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

            Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or
duly provided

<PAGE>
                                       39

for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that
Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. The initial Interest
Payment Date for any Security other than the Initial Securities shall be the
first April 1 or October 1 occurring after the Securities Issue Date for such
Security. The initial Interest Payment Date for each Initial Security shall be
October 1, 2001.

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

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

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

<PAGE>
                                       40

            Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 307, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

            Section 308. Persons Deemed Owners.

            Prior to the time of due presentment for registration of transfer,
the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat
the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such
Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to
Section 307) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever,
whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee
nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

            Section 309. Cancellation.

            All Securities surrendered for payment, registration of transfer or
exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be
delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by it. The Company may
at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any
manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by
the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for
any Securities canceled as provided in this Section 309, except as expressly
permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall
be disposed of as directed by the Company pursuant to a Company Order, provided,
however, that the Trustee shall not be required to destroy such canceled
Securities.

            Section 310. Computation of Interest.

            Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

            Section 311. Registration Rights of Holders of Initial Securities.

            Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, holders
of Initial Securities, if any, shall be entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement.

            Section 312. CUSIP Numbers.

            The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if
then generally in use) in addition to serial numbers, and, if so, the Trustee
shall use such "CUSIP" numbers in addition to serial numbers in notices of
repurchase 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 Securities or as contained in any notice of a repurchase and that
reliance may be placed only on the serial or other identification numbers
printed on the

<PAGE>
                                       41

Securities, and any such repurchase shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such "CUSIP" numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee
of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

            Section 313. Book-Entry Provisions for Global Securities.

            (a) The Global Securities initially shall (i) be registered in the
name of the Depository or the nominee of such Depository, (ii) be delivered to
the Trustee as custodian for such Depository and (iii) bear legends as set forth
in Section 206 and, in the case of Restricted Securities in the form of Global
Securities, Section 205.

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

            (b) Transfers of Global Securities shall be limited to transfers in
whole, but not in part, to the Depository, its successors or their respective
nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Rule 144A Global Security may be
transferred or exchanged for interests in a Regulation S Global Security, and
interests of beneficial owners in a Regulation S Global Security may be
transferred or exchanged for interests in a Rule 144A Global Security, in each
case in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the
provisions of Section 314. Interests of beneficial owners in the Global
Securities may be transferred or exchanged for Physical Securities in accordance
with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the provisions of Section
314.

            In addition, Physical Securities shall be transferred to all
beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in a Global
Security if (i) the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or
unable to continue as a depository for such Global Security or if at any time
the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act,
and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, (ii)
there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to
the Securities represented by such Global Security or (iii) the Company at any
time determines not to have Securities represented by a Global Security.

            Except as provided above, any Security authenticated and delivered
upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, any Global
Security, whether pursuant to this Section 313, Section 304, 305, 306 or 906 or
otherwise, shall also be a Global Security and bear the legend specified in
Section 206.

<PAGE>
                                       42

            (c) In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the
beneficial interest in any Global Security to beneficial owners pursuant to
paragraph (b), the Security Registrar shall (if one or more Physical Securities
are to be issued) reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in
the principal amount of the Global Security in an amount equal to the principal
amount of the beneficial interest in the Global Security to be transferred, and
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one
or more Physical Securities of like tenor and principal amount of authorized
denominations.

            (d) In connection with the transfer of Global Securities as an
entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph (b), the Global Securities
shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each
beneficial owner identified by the Depository in exchange for its beneficial
interest in the Global Securities, an equal aggregate principal amount of
Physical Securities of like tenor of authorized denominations.

            (e) Any Physical Security delivered in exchange for an interest in a
Global Security pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 313 shall,
except as otherwise provided by clause (1)(x) of paragraph (a) and by paragraph
(d) of Section 314, bear the legend set forth in Section 205.

            (f) The Holder of any Global Security may grant proxies and
otherwise authorize any person, including Agent Members and persons that may
hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is
entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities.

            Section 314. Special Transfer Provisions.

            (a) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall
apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Restricted
Security to any non-U.S. person:

            (i) the Security Registrar shall register the transfer of any
      Restricted Security if (x) the requested transfer is not prior to the date
      which is two years (or such other period as may be prescribed by Rule
      144(k) under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereunder)
      after the later of the original issue date of such Security (or of any
      Predecessor Security) or the last day on which the Company or any
      Affiliate of the Company was the owner of such Security or any Predecessor
      Security or (y) the proposed transferee has checked the box provided for
      on the form of Security stating, and has provided to the Security
      Registrar such certifications, opinions and other information as the
      Security Registrar may (and, if so directed by the Company, shall)
      require, stating that such Security is being transferred pursuant to
      offers and sales to non-U.S. persons that occur outside the United States
      within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act; and

<PAGE>
                                       43

            (ii) the Security Registrar shall register the transfer of any
      Restricted Security if the proposed transferor is an Agent Member holding
      a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Security, upon receipt by the
      Security Registrar of (x) the certificate, if any, required by paragraph
      (i) above and (y) instructions given in accordance with the Depository's
      and the Security Registrar's procedures;

whereupon the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date
of such transfer and (A) (if the transfer involves a transfer of a beneficial
interest in a Rule 144A Global Security) a decrease in the principal amount of
such Rule 144A Global Security in an amount equal to the principal amount to be
transferred and (B) an increase in the principal amount of a Regulation S Global
Security in an amount equal to the principal amount to be transferred.

            (b) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with
respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Restricted Security to
a person purporting to be a QIB (excluding transfers to non-U.S. persons):

            (i) the Security Registrar shall register the transfer of any
      Restricted Security if such transfer is being made by a proposed
      transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of Security
      stating, or who has otherwise advised the Company and the Security
      Registrar in writing, that the transfer has been made in compliance with
      the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided under
      Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the certification provided for on
      the form of Security stating, or has otherwise advised the Company and the
      Security Registrar in writing, that such transferee represents and
      warrants that it is purchasing the Security for its own account or an
      account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and
      that each of it and any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule
      144A and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule
      144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the
      Company as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to
      request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is
      relying upon the foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption
      from registration provided by Rule 144A; and

            (ii) the Security Registrar shall register the transfer of any
      Restricted Security if the proposed transferee is an Agent Member, and the
      Securities to be transferred consist of Physical Securities which after
      transfer are to be evidenced by an interest in the Rule 144A Global
      Security, upon receipt by the Security Registrar of instructions given in
      accordance with the Depository's and the Security Registrar's procedures,
      the Security Registrar shall reflect on the Security Register the date and
      an increase in the principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Security in an
      amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Securities to be
      transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Securities so
      transferred.

<PAGE>
                                       44

            (c) Other Transfers. If a Holder proposes to transfer a Security
pursuant to any exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act other than as provided for by Sections 314(a) and 314(b), the Security
Registrar shall only register such transfer or exchange if such transferor
delivers to the Security Registrar and the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar that such transfer is in
compliance with the Securities Act and the terms of this Indenture; provided
that the Company may, based upon the opinion of its counsel, instruct the
Security Registrar by a Company Order not to register such transfer in any case
where the proposed transferee is not a QIB or a non-U.S. person.

            (d) Private Placement Legend. Upon the registration of transfer,
exchange or replacement of Restricted Securities, the Security Registrar shall
deliver only Securities that bear the legend set forth in Section 205 unless the
circumstances contemplated by clause (a)(1)(x) of this Section 314 exist. By its
acceptance of any Security bearing the legend set forth in Section 205, each
Holder of such a Security acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such
Security set forth in this Indenture and in such legend and agrees that it will
transfer such Security only as provided in this Indenture.

            The Security Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices
and other written communications received pursuant to Section 313 or this
Section 314 for a period of two years, after which time such letters, notices
and other written communications shall at the written request of the Company be
delivered to the Company. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make
copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any
reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable prior written notice to the
Security Registrar.

            (e) Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed by this
Section 314 upon the transferability of any particular Restricted Security shall
cease and terminate (i) on the later of March 22, 2003 and two years after the
last date on which the Company or any Affiliate of the Company was the owner of
such Restricted Security (or any predecessor of such Restricted Security) or
(ii) (if earlier) if and when such Restricted Security has been sold pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. Any Restricted
Security as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in
accordance with their terms or shall have terminated may, upon surrender of such
Restricted Security for exchange to the Trustee or any transfer agent in
accordance with the provisions of Section 305, be exchanged for a new Initial
Security, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the
restrictive legend required by Section 205. The Company shall inform the Trustee
in writing of (i) the effective date of any registration statement registering
the Initial Securities under the Securities Act and (ii) at the request of the
Trustee, the date which is two years after the last date on which the Company or
any Affiliate of the Company was the owner of a Restricted Security in the event
that an Exchange Offer has not been consummated.

the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when

            (a) either

                  (i) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered
            (other than (A) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen
            and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and
            (B) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been
            deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company
            and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust,
            as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for

                        (B)   will become due and payable within one year,

                  and the Company, in the case of (A) or (B) above, has
                  irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the
                  Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount
                  sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on
                  such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
                  cancellation, for principal and interest to the date of such
                  deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and
                  payable) or to the Stated Maturity;

            (b) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable

      Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions
      precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge
      of this Indenture have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 606 and, if money shall
have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (2) of Subsection (a)
of this Section 401, the obligations of the Trustee

                                       46

under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive such
satisfaction and discharge.

            Section 402. Application of Trust Money.

            Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all
money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust
and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities 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 Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and interest for whose payment
such money has been deposited with the Trustee.

                                  ARTICLE FIVE

                                    REMEDIES

            Section 501. Events of Default.

            An "Event of Default" occurs if:

            (a) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on any Security
      when the same becomes due and payable and such default continues for a
      period of 30 days;

            (b) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of any
      Security when the same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon
      acceleration or otherwise;

            (c) the Company fails to comply with any of its other agreements or
      covenants in, or provisions of, the Securities or this Indenture, and the
      Default continues for the period and after the notice, if any, specified
      below;

            (d) a default occurs 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 one of its
      Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the
      Company or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness
      or guarantee now exists or shall be created hereafter (but excluding any
      Indebtedness for the deferred purchase price of property or services owed
      to the Person providing such property or services as to which the Company
      or such Restricted Subsidiary is contesting its obligation to pay the same
      in good faith and by proper proceedings and for which the Company or such
      Restricted Subsidiary has established appropriate reserves), and (i)
      either (A) such event of default results from the failure to pay any such
      Indebtedness at final maturity or (B) as a result of such event of default
      the maturity of such Indebtedness has been accelerated prior to its
      expressed maturity and (ii) the principal amount of such Indebtedness
      equals $10,000,000 or more or, together with the principal amount of any
      such Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal

<PAGE>
                                       47

      at maturity or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates
      $10,000,000 or more;

            (e) a final judgment or final judgments for the payment of money are
      entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction against the Company
      or any Restricted Subsidiary and either (i) an enforcement proceeding
      shall have been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or (ii) such
      judgment remains undischarged and unbonded for a period (during which
      execution shall not be effectively stayed) of 60 days, provided that the
      aggregate of all such judgments exceeds $10,000,000;

            (f) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy
      Law:

                  (i) commences a voluntary case or proceeding,

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

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

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

                  (v) admits in writing that it generally is unable to pay its
            debts as the same become due; or

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

                  (i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case
            or proceeding,

                  (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or
            substantially all of its property, or

                  (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company;

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

            The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, U.S. Code or any similar
Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term "Custodian" means any
receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official under
any Bankruptcy Law.

            A Default under Section 501(c) is not an Event of Default until the
Trustee notifies the Company in writing, or the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the

<PAGE>
                                       48

Securities then Outstanding notify the Company and the Trustee in writing, of
the Default, and the Company does not cure the Default within 60 days (30 days
in the case of a Default under Section 801 or 1004) after receipt of the notice.
The notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that
the notice is a "Notice of Default." Such notice to the Company shall be given
by the Trustee if so requested in writing by the Holders of 25% of the principal
amount of the Securities then Outstanding.

            Section 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission.

            If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in
Section 501(f) or 501(g)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders
of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Initial Securities and the
Exchange Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a single class, by
written notice to the Company and the agents, if any, under the Bank Credit
Agreement (and to the Trustee if such notice is given by the Holders), may, and
the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare all unpaid principal
of and accrued interest on all the Securities to be due and payable, as
specified below. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal and accrued
interest shall be due and payable 10 days after receipt by the Company of such
written notice given hereunder. If an Event of Default specified in Section
501(f) or 501(g) with respect to the Company occurs, the amounts described above
shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Upon payment
of such principal and interest all of the Company's obligations under the
Securities and this Indenture, other than obligations under Section 606, shall
terminate.

            The Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Initial Securities and the Exchange Securities then Outstanding, voting together
as a single class, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind an acceleration
and its consequences if (i) all existing Events of Default, other than the
non-payment of principal of or interest on the Securities which have become due
solely because of the acceleration, have been cured or waived and (ii) the
rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction.

            Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, in the event of a
declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an Event of
Default specified in Section 501(d) shall have occurred and be continuing, such
declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness
that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders
thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such
Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case
may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company and countersigned by
the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such
holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the
Securities, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30-day period
which has not been cured or waived during such period.

            Notices by the Trustee to the agents under the Bank Credit Agreement
provided for herein shall be delivered or mailed to Toronto Dominion (Texas),
Inc., 909 Fannin Street, Suite 1700, Houston, Texas 77010, Attention: Agency
Department; and to any other person who

<PAGE>
                                       49

hereafter becomes an agent under the Bank Credit Agreement, provided the Trustee
has been notified by the Company or the Banks of the names and mailing addresses
of such persons.

            Section 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee.

            The Company covenants that if

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

            (b) default is made in the payment of the principal of any Security
      at the Maturity thereof,

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

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

            If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in
its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Holders under this Indenture by such appropriate private or judicial proceedings
as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce such rights.

            Section 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

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

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

            (b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
      deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any
      custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
      similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
      each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that
      the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the
      Holders, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable
      compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
      agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section
      606.

            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 proposal,
plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition or other similar
arrangement affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to
authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceeding.

            Section 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Securities.

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

            Section 506. Application of Money Collected.

            Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be
applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and,
in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or interest,
upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if
only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

            FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section
      606;

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

            THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company.

            Section 507. Limitation on Suits.

            No Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any
proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or the
Securities, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless

            (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee
      of a continuing Event of Default;

            (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
      Initial Securities and the Exchange Securities then Outstanding, voting
      together as a single class, shall have made written request to the Trustee
      to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own
      name as Trustee hereunder;

            (c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable
      indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in
      compliance with such request;

            (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,
      request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such
      proceeding; and

            (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
      given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a
      majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

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

<PAGE>
                                       52

over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture except in
the manner provided in this Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of
all the Holders.

            Section 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and
Interest.

            Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of
any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to
receive payment of the principal of and (subject to Section 307) interest on
such Security on the respective due dates expressed in such Security and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall
not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

            Section 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

            If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to
the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, the
Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding,
be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue
as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

            Section 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

            Except as provided in Section 306, no right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or

otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.

            Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

            No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security
to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair
any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or
an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law
to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case
may be.

            Section 512. Control by Holders.

Exchange Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a single class, shall
have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Trustee, provided that

            (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
      with this Indenture or expose the Trustee to personal liability, and

            (b) subject to the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 315,
      the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which
      is not inconsistent with such direction.

            Section 513. Waiver of Past Defaults.

            The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Initial
Securities and the Exchange Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a
single class, may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities waive any past
Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences, except a Default or
Event of Default

            (a) in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security,
      or

            (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article
      Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of
      each Outstanding Security affected.

            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 514. Undertaking for Costs.

            All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security
by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in
its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy
under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such
suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in
its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the
merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but
the provisions of this Section 514 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the
Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in
the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Initial Securities and
the Exchange Securities then Outstanding, voting together as a single class, or
to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the
principal of or interest on any Security on or after the respective Stated
Maturities expressed in such Security; provided that neither this

<PAGE>
                                       54

Section 514 nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court
to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit
instituted by the Company.

            Section 515. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.

            The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever
claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law
wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the
covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent
that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of
any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the
execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit
the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment
of the principal of or interest on any Security, the Trustee shall be protected
in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the
executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible
Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such
notice is in the interest of the Holders; and provided further that, in the case

      bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers' Certificate;

            (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the
      advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and

      premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense
      of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any
      kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

      with the Trustee, in the manner and to the extent provided in Trust
      Indenture Act Section 313(c), such summaries of any information, documents
      and reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to subsections
      (a) and (b) of this Section 703 as may be required by rules and
      regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission.

              CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, CONVEYANCE, TRANSFER OR LEASE

            Section 801. Company May Consolidate, Etc., Only on Certain Terms.

            The Company shall not consolidate or merge with or into, or sell,
assign, transfer, lease, convey, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its assets to, any Person, unless:

            (a) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
      merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, assignment,
      transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition shall have been made, is a
      corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States,
      any state thereof or the District of Columbia and shall assume by
      supplemental indenture hereto all the obligations of the Company under the
      Securities and this Indenture;

            (b) immediately before and immediately after such transaction, and
      after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall have
      occurred and be continuing;

            (c) immediately after such transaction, and after giving effect
      thereto, the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
      merger, or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance
      or disposition shall have been made (the "successor"), shall have a Cash
      Flow Ratio not in excess of 9 to 1; and

            (d) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
      Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such
      consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture, if one
      is required by this Section 801, comply with this Section 801 and that all
      conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have
      been complied with.

            Cash Flow Ratio for purposes of this Section 801 shall be computed
as if any such successor were the Company.

            Section 802. Successor Substituted.

            Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer,
Lease or conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets, of the Company in accordance with Section 801, the successor Person
formed by such consolidation or into 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, 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. When a successor assumes all the
obligations of its predecessor under this Indenture and the Securities, the
predecessor will be released from those obligations, provided that in the case
of a transfer by lease, the predecessor corporation shall not

<PAGE>
                                       63

be released from the payment of principal and interest on the Securities.

                             SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

            Section 901. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders.

            Without the consent of any Holders, the Company, when authorized by
a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, may
enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto in form satisfactory to
the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

            (a) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company and
      the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company
      herein and in the Securities;

            (b) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the
      Holders, or to surrender any right or power herein or in the Securities
      conferred upon the Company;

            (c) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision
      herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision
      herein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
      questions arising under this Indenture; provided that, in each case, such
      provisions shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders in any
      material respect;

            (d) to secure the Securities, if the Company so elects;

            (e) to supplement any provisions of this Indenture to such extent as
      shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the defeasance and discharge of
      the Securities pursuant to Sections 1201, 1202 and 1203.

            (f) to make any changes necessary to qualify this Indenture under
      the Trust Indenture Act in connection with the Exchange Offer or the Shelf
      Registration Statement; or

            (g) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the
      rights of any Holder.

delivered to the Company and the Trustee and the Company, each when authorized
by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into one or

<PAGE>
                                       64

more indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to
or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture
or of waiving or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders under this
Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture, amendment or
waiver shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security
affected thereby:

            (a) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any
      installment of interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount
      thereof or the rate of interest thereon, or change the coin or currency in
      which the principal of any Security or the interest thereon is payable, or
      impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment
      after the Stated Maturity thereof; or

            (b) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding
      Securities, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such
      supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for
      any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or
      certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this
      Indenture; or

            (c) modify any of the provisions of this Section 902 or Section 513,
      except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other
      provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the
      consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby.

            It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section
902 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but
it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

            Section 903. Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

            In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of
the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive,
and (subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 315(a) through 315(d) and Section
602 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to,
enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee's own
rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

            Section 904. Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

            Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article,
this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental

shall be bound thereby.

                                       65

            Section 905. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

            Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall
conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

            Section 906. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

            Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by
the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine,
new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the
Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the
Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for
Outstanding Securities.

                                   ARTICLE TEN

                                    COVENANTS

            Section 1001. Payment of Principal and Interest.

            The Company will duly and punctually pay the principal of and
interest on the Securities in accordance with the terms of the Securities and
this Indenture.

            Section 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

            The Company will maintain, in The City of New York, an office or
agency where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where
Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where
notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this
Indenture may be served. If the Corporate Trust Office is located in New York
City, then it shall be such office or agency of the Company, unless the Company
shall designate and maintain some other office or agency for one or more of such
purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any
change in the location of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company
shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to
furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders,
notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the
Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

            The Company may from time to time designate one or more other
offices or agencies (in or outside of The City of New York) where the Securities
may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes, and may from time
to time rescind such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or
rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain
an office or agency in The City of New York for such

<PAGE>
                                       66

purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such office or
agency.

            Section 1003. Money for Security Payments to Be Held in Trust.

            If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it
will, on or before each due date of the principal of or interest on any of the
Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal or interest so becoming due until
such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein
provided, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to
act.

            Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for the
Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of or interest
on any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum in same day funds (or New
York Clearing House funds if such deposit is made prior to the date on which
such deposit is required to be made) sufficient to pay the principal or interest
so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled to such principal or interest and (unless such Paying Agent is the
Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of such action or any
failure so to act.

            The Company will cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent
shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 1003,
that such Paying Agent will:

            (a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of or
      interest on Securities in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
      thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise
      disposed of as herein provided;

            (b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any
      other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment of
      principal or interest; and

            (c) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the
      written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so
      held in trust by such Paying Agent.

            The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or
by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in
trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee
upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or
such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee,
such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to
such money.

            Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then
held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of or interest on
any Security and remaining

<PAGE>
                                       67

unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest has become due and
payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request or (if then held by the
Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security
shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for
payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee
thereof, shall thereupon cease.

            Section 1004. Corporate Existence.

            Subject to Article Eight, the Company shall do or cause to be done
all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate
existence and that of each Restricted Subsidiary and the corporate rights
(charter and statutory), corporate licenses and corporate franchises of the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, except where a failure to do so, singly
or in the aggregate, is not likely to have a materially adverse effect upon the
business, assets, financial condition or results of operations of the Company
and the Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole determined on a consolidated
basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; provided that
the Company shall not be required to preserve any such existence (except of the
Company), right, license or franchise if the Board of Directors, or of the
Restricted Subsidiary concerned, shall determine that the preservation thereof
is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any
material respect to the Holders.

            Section 1005. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims.

            The Company will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged,
before the same shall become delinquent, (a) all material taxes, assessments and
governmental charges levied or imposed upon it or any Subsidiary or upon the
income, profits or property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (b)
all material lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid,
might by law become a lien upon the property of the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay or
discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or
claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith
by appropriate proceedings.

            Section 1006. Maintenance of Properties.

            The Company shall cause all material properties owned by or leased
to it or any Restricted Subsidiary and necessary in the conduct of its business
or the business of such Restricted Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in
normal condition, repair and working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted;
provided that nothing in this Section 1006 shall prevent the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the use, operation or maintenance of
any of such properties, or disposing of any of them, if such discontinuance or
disposal is, in the judgment of the Board of Directors or the Restricted
Subsidiary concerned, or of any officer (or other agent employed by the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary) of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary
having managerial responsibility for any such property, desirable in the conduct
of the business of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and
if such discontinuance or disposal is not adverse in any material respect to the
Holders.

<PAGE>
                                       68

            The Company shall provide or cause to be provided, for itself and
any Restricted Subsidiaries, insurance (including appropriate self-insurance)
against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by corporations
similarly situated and owning like properties in the same general areas in which
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiaries operate.

            Section 1007. Limitation on Indebtedness.

            The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, incur, create, issue, assume, guarantee
or otherwise become liable for, contingently or otherwise, or become responsible
for the payment of, contingently or otherwise, any Indebtedness (other than
Indebtedness between or among any of the Company and Restricted Subsidiaries)
unless, after giving effect thereto, the Cash Flow Ratio shall be less than or
equal to 9 to 1.

            Section 1008. Limitation on Liens.

            The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist
any Lien of any kind, except for Permitted Liens, on or with respect to any of
its property or assets, whether owned at the date of this Indenture or hereafter
acquired, or any income, profits or proceeds therefrom, or assign or otherwise
convey any right to receive income thereon, unless (x) in the case of any Lien
securing Indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the
Securities, the Securities are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or
proceeds that is senior in priority to such Lien and (y) in the case of any
other Lien, the Securities are equally and ratably secured.

            Section 1009. Limitation on Restricted Payments.

            Except as otherwise provided in this Section 1009, the Company shall
not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Restricted
Payment if (a) at the time of such proposed Restricted Payment, a Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a
consequence of such Restricted Payment or (b) immediately after giving effect to
such Restricted Payment, the aggregate of all Restricted Payments that shall
have been made on or after July 1, 1988 would exceed the sum of:

            (a) $25,000,000, plus

            (b) an amount equal to the difference between (i) the Cumulative
      Cash Flow Credit and (ii) 1.2 multiplied by Cumulative Interest Expense.

            For purposes of this Section 1009, the amount of any Restricted
Payment, if other than cash, shall be based upon fair market value as determined
by the Board of Directors, whose good faith determination shall be conclusive.

            The foregoing provisions of this Section 1009 shall not prevent (i)
the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration
thereof, if at such date of declaration

<PAGE>
                                       69

such payment complied with the provisions or this Section 1009; and (ii) the
retirement, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other acquisition of any shares
of the Company's Capital Stock or warrants, rights or options to acquire Capital
Stock of the Company in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of a sale (within
one year before or 180 days after such retirement, redemption, purchase,
defeasance or other acquisition) of, other shares of the Company's Capital Stock
or warrants, rights or options to acquire Capital Stock of the Company. For
purposes of determining the aggregate permissible amount of Restricted Payments
in accordance with clause (b) of the first paragraph of this Section 1009, all
amounts expended pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall be included and
all amounts expended or received pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph shall
be excluded; provided, however, that amounts paid pursuant to clause (i) of this
paragraph shall be included only to the extent that such amounts were not
previously included in calculating Restricted Payments.

            For the purposes of this Section 1009, the net proceeds from the
issuance of shares of Capital Stock of the Company upon conversion of
Indebtedness shall be deemed to be an amount equal to (i) the accreted value of
such Indebtedness on the date of such conversion and (ii) the additional
consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such conversion thereof,
less any cash payment on account of fractional shares (such consideration, if in
property other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors, whose good
faith determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a Board Resolution). If
the Company makes a Restricted Payment which, at the time of the making of such
Restricted Payment, would in the good faith determination of the Company be
permitted under the requirements of this Section 1009, such Restricted Payment
shall be deemed to have been made in compliance with this Section 1009
notwithstanding any subsequent adjustments made in good faith to the Company's
financial statements affecting Cumulative Cash Flow Credit or Cumulative
Interest Expense for any period.

            Section 1010. Limitation on Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries
and Affiliates.

            The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, (a) make any Investment or (b) allow any
Restricted Subsidiary to become an Unrestricted Subsidiary (a "redesignation of
a Restricted Subsidiary"), in each case unless (i) no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a consequence of
such Investment or such redesignation of a Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) after
giving effect thereto, the Cash Flow Ratio shall be less than or equal to 9 to
1.

            The foregoing provisions of this Section 1010 shall not prohibit (a)
any renewal or reclassification of any Investment existing on the date hereof or
(b) trade credit extended on usual and customary terms in the ordinary course of
business.

            Section 1011. Transactions with Affiliates.

            The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries
to, sell, lease,

<PAGE>
                                       70

transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to or purchase
any property or assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement,
understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, an
Affiliate of the Company that is not a Subsidiary, having a value, or for
consideration having a value, in excess of $10,000,000 individually or in the
aggregate unless the Board of Directors shall make a good faith determination
that the terms of such transaction are, taken as a whole, no less favorable to
the Company or such subsidiary, as the case may be, than those which might be
available in a comparable transaction with an unrelated Person. For purposes of
clarification, this Section 1011 shall not apply to any Restricted Payments
permitted by Section 1009.

            Section 1012. Provision of Financial Statements.

            (a) The Company shall supply without cost to each Holder of the
Securities, and file with the Trustee (if not otherwise filed with the Trustee
pursuant to Section 703) within 30 days after the Company is required to file
the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports
and of the information, documents and other reports which the Company may be
required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d)
of the Exchange.

            (b) If the Company is not required to file with the Commission such
reports and other information referred to in Section 1012(a), the Company shall
furnish without cost to each Holder of the Securities and file with the Trustee
(i) within 140 days after the end of each fiscal year, annual reports containing
the information required to be contained in Items 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9 of Form
10-K promulgated under the Exchange Act, or substantially the same information
required to be contained in comparable items of any successor form, and (ii)
within 75 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each
fiscal year, quarterly reports containing the information required to be
contained in Form 10-Q promulgated under the Exchange Act, or substantially the
same information required to be contained in any successor form.

            (c) At any time when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act, upon the request of a Holder of a Restricted
Security, the Company will promptly furnish or cause to be furnished such
information as is specified pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act
(or any successor provision thereto) to such Holder or to a prospective
purchaser of such Security designated by such holder, as the case may be, in
order to permit compliance by such holder with Rule 144A under the Securities
Act.

            Section 1013. Statement as to Compliance.

            The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the
end of each fiscal year ending after March 22, 2001, a brief certificate of its
principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting
officer stating whether, to such officer's knowledge, the Company is in
compliance with all covenants and conditions under this Indenture. For purposes
of this Section 1013, such compliance shall be determined without

<PAGE>
                                       71

regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture.

            Section 1014. Waiver of Certain Covenants.

            The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any
covenant or condition set forth in Sections 1007 through 1012 if, before or
after the time for such compliance, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by Act of such Holders, waive
such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such
covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such
covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such
waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of
the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full
force and effect.

            Section 1015. Statement by Officers as to Default.

            The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in
any event within five days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of
any Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the lapse of time or
both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officers" Certificate setting
forth the details of such Event of Default or default and the action which the
Company proposes to take with respect thereto.

                                       72

            Section 1202. Defeasance and Discharge.

            Upon the Company's exercise under Section 1201 of the option
applicable to this Section 1202, the Company shall be deemed to have been
discharged from its obligations with respect to all Outstanding Securities on
the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter,
"defeasance"). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be
deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the
Outstanding Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding"
only for the purposes of Section 1205 and the other Sections of this Indenture
referred to in (A) and (B) below, and to have satisfied all its other
obligations under such Securities and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand
of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of
Outstanding Securities to receive solely from the trust fund described in
Section 1204 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of
the principal of and interest on such Securities when such payments are due, (B)
the Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304,
305, 306, 1002 and 1003, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities
of the Trustee hereunder and the Company's obligations in connection therewith
and (D) this Article Twelve. Subject to compliance with this Article Twelve, the
Company may exercise its option under this Section 1202 notwithstanding the
prior exercise of its option under Section 1203 with respect to the Securities.

            Section 1203. Covenant Defeasance.

            Upon the Company's exercise under Section 1201 of the option
applicable to this Section 1203, the Company shall be released from its
obligations under any covenant contained in Article Eight and in Sections 1004
through 1012 with respect to the Outstanding Securities on and after the date
the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant
defeasance"), and the Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not
"Outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration
or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such
covenants, but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes
hereunder (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed
Outstanding for financial accounting purposes). For this purpose, such covenant
defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Securities, the Company
may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term,
condition or limitation set forth in any such 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 501(c), but, except as specified above, the
remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. In
addition, upon the Company's exercise under Section 1201 of the option
applicable to Section 1203, Sections 501(c) through 501(e) shall not constitute
Events of Default.

            Section 1204. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

            The following shall be the conditions to application of either
Section 1202 or Section 1203 to the Outstanding Securities:

            (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be
      deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements
      of Section 608 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this
      Article Twelve applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose
      of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for,
      and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities,
      (A) cash in U.S. Dollars in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations
      which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect
      thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one
      day before the due date of any payment, cash in U.S. Dollars in an amount,
      or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
      recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
      certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge and
      which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay
      and discharge, (i) the principal of and interest on the Outstanding
      Securities on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of
      principal or interest and (ii) any mandatory sinking fund payments or
      analogous payments applicable to the Outstanding Securities on the day on
      which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of
      this Indenture and of such Securities; provided that the Trustee shall
      have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of
      such U.S. Government Obligations to said payments with respect to the
      Securities. For this purpose, "U.S. Government Obligations" means
      securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States of America
      for the timely payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or
      (y) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an
      agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the timely
      payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit
      obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case, are not
      callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also
      include a depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section
      3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), as custodian with
      respect to any such U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of
      principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by
      such custodian for the account of the holder of such depository receipt;
      provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized
      to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such
      depository receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of
      the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal of or
      interest on the U.S. Government Obligation evidenced by such depository
      receipt.

            (2) No Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities
      shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or,
      insofar as Subsection 501(f) or 501(g) is concerned, at any time during
      the period ending on the 91st day after the date of

<PAGE>
                                       74

      such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed
      satisfied until the expiration of such period).

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

            (4) In the case of an election under Section 1202, the Company shall
      have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States
      stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been
      published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (y) since March 22,
      2001, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in
      either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall
      confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not recognize
      income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such
      defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts,
      in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if
      such defeasance had not occurred.

            (5) In the case of an election under Section 1203, the Company shall
      have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States
      to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not
      recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result
      of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on
      the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have
      been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred.

            (6) In the case of an election under either Section 1202 or 1203,
      the Company shall represent to the Trustee that the deposit made by the
      Company pursuant to its election under Section 1202 or 1203 was not made
      by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over other
      creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering,
      delaying or defrauding creditors of the Company or others.

            (7) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
      Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel in the United States, each stating
      that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the
      defeasance under Section 1202 or the covenant defeasance under Section
      1203 (as the case may be) have been complied with.

            Section 1205. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be
Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

            Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all
money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited
with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this
Section 1205, the "Trustee") pursuant to Section 1204 in respect of the
Outstanding Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in
accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the
payment,

<PAGE>
                                       75

either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its
own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such
Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and
interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law. Money and U.S. Government Obligations so held in trust
are not subject to Article Twelve.

            The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee
or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1204 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 Securities.

            Anything in this Article Twelve to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company
Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in
Section 1204 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
1204(1)), are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be
deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance.

            Section 1206. Reinstatement.

            If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in
accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be, by reason of any order
or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company's obligations under
this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no
deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be, until
such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in
accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be; provided, however,
that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of or interest on any
Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be
subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such
payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.
