from the date of issuance until maturity; provided, however, that at the option
of the Company, so long as no Default or Event of Default is then continuing,

<PAGE>

Company will pay interest semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each
year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business
Day (each an "Interest Payment Date") to the holder of record on the immediately
preceding February 1 or August 1 (each, a "Record Date"). Interest on the Notes
will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from the date of issuance, or in case of Additional
Notes, from the date of issuance of such Additional Notes; provided that if
there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is
authenticated between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment
Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date;
provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be February 15,
2002. The Company shall pay interest (including Accrued Bankruptcy Interest in
any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if
any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the
then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful (the "Default
Rate"). In addition, the Company shall pay interest (including Accrued
Bankruptcy Interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue
installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from
time to time on demand at the Default Rate to the extent lawful. Interest will
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

      2.   Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except
defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the
close of business on the Record Date next preceding the Interest Payment Date,
even if such Notes are cancelled after such Record Date and on or before such
Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with
respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal,
premium and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such
purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of
the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at
their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that payment
by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to
principal of and interest and premium on all Global Notes and all other Notes
the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the
Company or the Paying Agent.

      If the Company elects to exercise its right to make an interest payment in
the form of Additional Notes, the Company must deliver to the Trustee, not less
than 10 nor more than 45 days prior to the Record Date for the Interest Payment
Date on which Additional Notes will be issued, an Officers' Certificate
notifying the Trustee of its election to pay interest through the issuance of
Additional Notes and the aggregate amount of such Additional Notes to be issued,
and specifying the amount of Additional Notes to be issued through the issuance
of Additional Definitive Notes, the amount to be issued through increases in the
Restricted Global Note and the amount to be issued through increases in the
Unrestricted Global Note. On or after the date of such Officers' Certificate but
not less than 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, the Company
must deliver to the Trustee any Additional Definitive Notes to be issued, which
Additional Definitive Notes must have been duly executed by the Company in the
manner provided in Section 2.02 of the Indenture. If the Company has satisfied
the conditions set forth herein for the payment of interest in the form of
Additional Notes on the relevant Interest Payment Date, the Trustee will record
increases in the Global Notes and authenticate Additional Definitive Notes, as
appropriate, in the aggregate principal amounts required to pay such interest.

                                       A-3

          Each Additional Note is an additional obligation of the Company and
the Subsidiary Guarantors and shall be governed by, and entitled to the benefits
of, the Indenture and shall be subject to the terms of the Indenture (including
the guarantee provisions) and shall rank pari passu with and be subject to the
same terms (including the rate of interest from time to time payable thereon) as
this Note (except, as the case may be, with respect to the issuance date and
aggregate principal amount) and shall have the benefit of all Liens securing
Notes.

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

          4.  Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated
as of August 23, 2001 among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the
Trustee (as such may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the
"Indenture"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and
those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of
1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to
all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a
statement of such terms. The Notes are secured obligations of the Company
limited to $25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount (except as otherwise
provided in Section 2 of this Note relating to payment of interest by issuance
of Additional Notes).

          5.  Optional Redemption. The Company shall have the option to redeem
the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at the
redemption price of 101% of principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date.

          Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than
60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed
at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be
redeemed in part but only in integral multiples of $1,000, unless all of the
Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the redemption date
interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

          6.  Mandatory Redemption. The Company shall not be required to make
mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes.

          7.  Repurchase Offers.

              (a)  Change of Control Offer. Upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control, the Company shall offer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000
or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder's Notes pursuant to the offer
described below (the "Change of Control Offer") at an offer price in cash equal
to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon to the date of purchase (the "Change of Control Payment").
Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice
to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the
Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes pursuant to the procedures
required by the Indenture and described in such notice. The Company shall comply
with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the

                                       A-4

<PAGE>

Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the
extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the
repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control.

          (b)   Asset Sale Offer. The Company shall not, and shall not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, engage in an Asset Sale in excess of $1,000,000
unless (a) the Intercreditor Agreement is in effect and does not prohibit such
Asset Sale and expressly provides that the Trustee has no right to restrict or
permit, or approve or disapprove, such Asset Sale, or (b) in all other cases (i)
the Company (or the Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at
the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value, and in the
case of a lease of assets, a lease providing for rent and other conditions which
are no less favorable to the Company (or the Subsidiary, as the case may be) in
any material respect than the then prevailing market conditions (evidenced in
each case by a resolution of the Board of Directors of such entity set forth in
an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of the assets or Equity
Interests sold or otherwise disposed of, (ii) at least 75% (100% in the case of
lease payments) of the consideration therefor received by the Company or such
Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount
of any notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Subsidiary
from such transferee that are promptly, but in no event more than 30 days after
receipt, converted by the Company or such Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of
the cash received), shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this provision,
(iii) subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if such Asset Sale involves the
disposition of Collateral, the Company or such Subsidiary has complied with
Articles 10 and 11 of the Indenture, and (iv) the Company or the Subsidiary, as
the case may be, applies the Net Proceeds as provided in the following
paragraph.

          Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, any such Net Proceeds may, at
the option of the Company, be applied within 180 days of the related Asset Sale
as follows:

                (i) to the acquisition of another business or the acquisition of
          other long-term assets, in each case, in the same or a similar line of
          business as the Company or any of its Subsidiaries was engaged in on
          the Issue Date or any reasonable extensions or expansions thereof
          ("Replacement Assets"); provided, that any Replacement Assets shall be
          owned by the Company or by the Subsidiary Guarantor that made the
          Asset Sale and shall not be subject to any Liens except Collateral
          Permitted Liens (and the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the
          case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee such Collateral
          Documents or other instruments as shall be necessary to cause such
          Replacement Assets to become subject to a Lien in favor of the
          Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, securing its
          obligations under the Notes or its Subsidiary Guarantee, as the case
          may be, and otherwise shall comply with the provisions of the
          Indenture applicable to After-Acquired Property); or

                (ii) to reimburse the Company or its Subsidiaries for
          expenditures made, and costs incurred, to repair, rebuild, replace or
          restore property subject to loss, damage or taking to the extent that
          the Net Proceeds consist of Net Insurance Proceeds received on account
          of such loss, damage or taking.

                                       A-5

<PAGE>

          Any portion of such Net Proceeds that is not used as described in
subparagraphs (i) or (ii) above within such 180-day period shall constitute
"Excess Proceeds" subject to disposition as provided below. When the aggregate
amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $3,000,000, the Company shall be required to
make an offer to all Holders (an "Asset Sale Offer") to purchase the maximum
principal amount of Notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at
an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount
thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of
purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the
extent that the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale
Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess
Proceeds for general corporate purposes. Upon completion of such Asset Sale
Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

      8.  Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form
without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,
except that Notes may be originally issued in such denominations as may be
required under the Reorganization Plan or Section 4.01 of the Indenture and may
be subsequently transferred in such denominations. The transfer of Notes may be
registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The
Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish
appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a
Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.
Neither the Company nor the Registrar will be required (A) to issue, to register
the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the
opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for
redemption under Section 3.02 of the Indenture and ending at the close of
business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange
any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or
to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date.

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

      10. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the
Indenture, the Notes or any Collateral Document may be amended or supplemented
with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes, and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 of the
Indenture, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or
Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration
that has been rescinded), or compliance with any provision of the Indenture, the
Notes or any Collateral Document, may be waived with the consent of the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Without the
consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture, the Notes or the Collateral
Documents may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency, to provide for the assumption of the Company's obligations to
Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change
that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes
or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any
such Holder, or to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or
maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA.

                                      A-6

<PAGE>

      11. Defaults and Remedies. Each of the following constitutes an Event of
Default under the Indenture: (i) default for 15 days in the payment when due of
interest on the Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of the principal of or
premium, if any, on the Notes; (iii) failure by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries to comply Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10 or 4.14 of the Indenture;
(iv) failure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for 30 days after notice
to comply with any of its other agreements in the Indenture, the Notes, the
Subsidiary Guarantees or the Collateral Documents; (v) default under any
mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which
there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is Guaranteed by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now
exists, or is created after the Issue Date, which default (a) is caused by a
failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, or interest on such Indebtedness
prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness (a
"Payment Default") or (b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior
to its express maturity and, in each case, the principal amount of any such
Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other Indebtedness as to
which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so
accelerated, aggregates $2,500,000 or more; (vi) failure by the Company or any
of its Significant Subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of
$2,500,000, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of
30 days; (vii) default by the Company or any Subsidiary in the performance of
the Collateral Documents which adversely affects the enforceability or validity
of the Lien in the Collateral or which adversely affects the condition or value
of the Collateral in any material respect, any repudiation or disaffirmation by
the Company or any Subsidiary of its Obligations under the Collateral Documents
or the determination in a judicial proceeding that any Collateral Document is
unenforceable or invalid against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any
reason; (viii) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee
shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall
cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Subsidiary Guarantor,
or any Person acting on behalf of any Subsidiary Guarantor, will deny or
disaffirm its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee; and (ix) certain
events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as
provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its
exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the
Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or
Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or
interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the
Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under
the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of
interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of, the Notes. The Company is
required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance
with the Indenture, and the Company is required upon becoming aware of any
Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying
such Default or Event of Default.

      12. Ranking, Subsidiary Guarantees and Security. The Notes will rank pari
passu with all Indebtedness of the Company that is not subordinated to the
Notes, including borrowings under the New Credit Agreement. The Notes will rank
senior to any Indebtedness of the Company that is subordinated to the Notes. The
Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed on a

                                      A-7

<PAGE>

senior secured basis by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors. The Subsidiary
Guarantees will rank pari passu with all Indebtedness of the Subsidiaries
Guarantors that is not subordinated to such Subsidiary Guarantees, including
guarantees of borrowings under the New Credit Agreement. The Subsidiary
Guarantees will rank senior to any Indebtedness of the Subsidiary Guarantors
that is subordinated to such Subsidiary Guarantees. The Notes and the Subsidiary
Guarantees will be secured by second priority Liens on substantially all of the
assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and the proceeds thereof,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired.

      13. Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any
other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services
for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or
its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

      14. No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee,
incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, shall not have any
liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or
for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or
their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such
liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance
of the Notes.

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

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

      17. Additional Rights of Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes. In addition
to the rights provided to Holders of Notes under the Indenture, Holders of
Transferred Restricted Notes shall have all the rights set forth in the
Registration Rights Agreement dated as of the Issue Date, among the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors and the holders of beneficial interests in the Restricted
Global Note (as such may be amended from time to time, the "Registration Rights
Agreement").

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

              Supplemental Indenture (this "Supplemental Indenture"), dated as
of ___________ _____ 200_, by and among __________________, a ___________
_________ (the "New Subsidiary Guarantor"), RBX Corporation (or its permitted
successor), a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), the other Subsidiary
Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to herein), and State Street
Bank and Trust Company, as trustee under the Indenture referred to below (the
"Trustee").

                               W I T N E S S E T H

              WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the
Trustee an indenture (as such may be amended or supplemented from time to time,
the "Indenture"), dated as of August 23, 2001, providing for the initial
issuance of $25,000,000 of 12% Senior Secured Notes due 2006 and the subsequent
issuance of Additional Notes under Section 4.01 of the Indenture (collectively,
the "Notes");

              WHEREAS, Section 4.14 of the Indenture provides that under certain
circumstances newly-acquired or created Subsidiaries of the Company shall
unconditionally guarantee all of the Company's Obligations under the Notes and
the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the "Subsidiary
Guarantee"); and

              WHEREAS, the New Subsidiary Guarantor is a Subsidiary of the
Company; and

              WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Indenture, the
Company, the existing Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee are authorized to
execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

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

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

       2.     Subsidiary Guarantees. Subject to the provisions of Article 12 of
the Indenture, the New Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally together with
all other Subsidiary Guarantors (including, without limitation, each Subsidiary
Guarantor that becomes a party to the Indenture after the date hereof by
execution and delivery of a supplemental indenture), hereby unconditionally
guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee
(including, without limitation, all Additional Notes) and to the Trustee and its
successors and assigns, that: (a) the principal of, and premium, if any, and
interest on the Notes shall be duly and punctually paid in full when due,
whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and interest on overdue
principal, and premium, if any, and (to the extent permitted by law) interest on
any interest, if any, on the Notes and all other obligations of the Company to
the Holders or

                                      B-1

<PAGE>

the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes (including fees, expenses or other)
shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms
hereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any
Notes or any of such other obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full
when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal,
whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (collectively, the
"Guarantee Obligations"). Failing payment when due of any Guarantee Obligation
or failing performance of any other obligation of the Company to the Holders,
for whatever reason, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be obligated to pay, or to
perform or to cause the performance of, the same immediately. An Event of
Default under the Indenture or the Notes shall constitute an event of default
under the Subsidiary Guarantees, and shall entitle the Trustee or the Holders of
Notes to accelerate the Guarantee Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor in
the same manner and to the same extent as the Obligations of the Company. The
New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee Obligations hereunder
shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to
enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect
to any thereof, the entry of any judgment against the Company, any action to
enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

       3.     Execution and Delivery. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that the
Subsidiary Guarantees set forth in Article 12 of the Indenture and in any
supplemental indentures will remain in full force and effect and apply to all
the Notes notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of the
Subsidiary Guarantees, and notwithstanding any failure of any Subsidiary
Guarantor to execute such notation.

       4.     Subsidiary Guarantor May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms. The
New Subsidiary Guarantor may not consolidate with or merge with or into another
Person except as permitted under Section 12.03 of the Indenture.

       5.     Releases. The New Subsidiary Guarantor may be released from its
obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee in certain circumstances as provided
in the Indenture.

       6.     GOVERNING LAW. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL
GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE.

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

       8.     Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for
convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

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

                                      B-2

     2.1 Appointment, Powers and Immunities.
         ----------------------------------

           (a) Each Lender and Note Trustee (for itself and on behalf of the
Noteholders) hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes Congress
Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (and any successor Collateral
Agent appointed pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof) to act as Collateral Agent
hereunder and under the Security Agreements with such powers as are specifically
delegated to Collateral Agent by the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement and
the Security Agreements, together with such other powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto.

           (b) The Collateral Agent hereby accepts its appointment as the
Collateral Agent hereunder upon the terms and conditions of this Intercreditor
Agreement and the Security Agreements, and hereby agrees to act as
representative and bailee with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of
Creditors upon the terms and conditions of this Intercreditor Agreement and the
Security Agreements.

           (c) Collateral Agent (i) shall have no duties or responsibilities
except those expressly set forth in this Intercreditor Agreement and the
Security Agreements, and shall not by reason of this Intercreditor Agreement,
any Security Agreement or otherwise be a trustee or fiduciary for any Creditor;
(ii) shall not be responsible to Creditors for any recitals, statements,
representations or warranties contained in this Intercreditor Agreement (except
for the

                                        6

<PAGE>

representations by Collateral Agent set forth in Section 4.2(c) hereof) or in
any of the Security Agreements, or in any certificate or other document referred
to or provided for in, or received by any of them in connection with this
Intercreditor Agreement or any Security Agreement, or for the value, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Intercreditor
Agreement or any Security Agreement or any other document referred to or
provided for herein or therein or for any failure by any Debtor or any other
Person (other than the Collateral Agent) to perform any of its obligations
hereunder or thereunder; and (iii) except as expressly provided herein, shall
not be responsible to Creditors for any action taken or omitted to be taken by
it hereunder or under any Security Agreement or under any other document or
instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection
herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct
as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent
jurisdiction. Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith.

           2.2 Reliance by Collateral Agent. Collateral Agent shall be entitled
               ----------------------------
to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any
thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram, cable or email) believed by it
to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the
proper Person or Persons, without inquiry or investigation and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected
by Collateral Agent in good faith. As to any matters not expressly provided for
by this Intercreditor Agreement or any other Agreement, Collateral Agent shall
in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by Lender in
respect of the Collateral until Lender has received payment in full of the
Lender Debt and thereafter in accordance with instructions given by Note
Trustee. Any action taken or failure to act pursuant to the instructions of
Lender (or Note Trustee, as applicable) shall be binding on all Creditors.
Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to take or not to take any action
pursuant to any instructions of any Note Creditor or any group of Note Creditors
(regardless of the percentage of the other outstanding Noteholder Debt held by
such Noteholders), except for instructions in writing received by Collateral
Agent from Note Trustee. No Noteholder shall give any such instructions to
Collateral Agent, or if any Noteholder shall give any such instructions, such
instructions shall be of no force and effect.

           2.3 Non-Reliance on Collateral Agent and Other Lenders. Collateral
               --------------------------------------------------
Agent has no responsibility to make and has made no representation and has not
furnished documents or information to support any credit analysis by any
Creditor and no Creditor may claim reliance on Collateral Agent. Each Creditor
agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on Collateral Agent or
any other Creditor, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Debtor and has made its own
decision to enter into its Agreements and that it will, independently and
without reliance upon Collateral Agent or any other Creditor, and based on such
documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to
make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under its
Agreements. Collateral Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to
the performance or observance by any Debtor of any term or provision of this
Intercreditor

                                        7

<PAGE>

Agreement or any Security Agreement or any other document referred to or
provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of any
Debtor. Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide
any Creditor with any credit or other information concerning the affairs,
financial condition or business of any Debtor that may come into the possession
of Collateral Agent.

           2.4 Failure to Act. Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully
               --------------
justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and under any Security
Agreement unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from
Creditors (or at Collateral Agent's option, from Note Trustee on behalf of all
Note Creditors) that Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any Creditor as
a result of any such action.

           2.5 Concerning the Collateral and Security Agreements.
               -------------------------------------------------

                  (a) Each Lender and Note Trustee (for itself and on behalf of
the Noteholders) authorizes and directs Collateral Agent to enter into the
Security Agreements. Any action taken by Collateral Agent in accordance with the
terms of this Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Agreements relating to the
Collateral, and the exercise by Collateral Agent of its powers set forth therein
or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental
thereto, shall be binding upon all of Creditors.

                  (b) Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to
any Creditor or any other Person to investigate, confirm or assure that the
Collateral exists or is owned by any Debtor or is cared for, protected or
insured or has been encumbered, or that the Liens granted to Collateral Agent
under the Security Agreements or otherwise have been properly or sufficiently or
lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any
particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner, or under
any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the
rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Collateral Agent in this
Intercreditor Agreement or in any of the Security Agreements, it being
understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act. omission or
event related thereto, Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem
appropriate, in its discretion, exercised in good faith, and that Collateral
Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any Creditor, except for any
liability to a Creditor as a result of any action by Collateral Agent that is
determined to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct pursuant to a
final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

           2.6 Resignation.
               -----------

                  (a) Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving notice
thereof to Lender and Note Trustee. After the payment in full of the Lender
Debt, Note Trustee shall have the right to require Collateral Agent to resign by
giving notice thereof to Lender and Collateral Agent. In the event of any such
resignation, Collateral Agent shall have the right to appoint a successor agent
reasonably acceptable to Lender (after consultation with the Lender) or at any
time on or after the payment in full of the Lender Debt, acceptable to the Note
Trustee. Lender (or Note

                                        8

<PAGE>

Trustee, as applicable) shall be deemed to have found a successor reasonably
acceptable to it unless Lender (or Note Trustee, as applicable) indicates to the
contrary within five (5) business days after notice thereof from Collateral
Agent to Lender (or Note Trustee, as applicable). If after payment in full of
the Lender Debt, Collateral Agent has resigned, any payment of, or proceeds
applied to the payment of, the Lender Debt are required to be surrendered or
returned, so that any Lender Debt is reinstated (as set forth in the definition
of payment in full), Congress as the former Collateral Agent may, at its option,
automatically upon notice to Note Trustee, be reappointed as Collateral Agent
and the then Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have resigned.

              (b) Upon the acceptance of any appointment as agent hereunder by a
successor agent and the delivery of any Collateral that is the in the possession
of the retiring Collateral Agent, (i) the successor agent shall succeed to and
become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Collateral Agent, (ii) the retiring Collateral Agent shall have no further
duties and obligations hereunder and (iii) the retiring Collateral Agent shall,
at the expense of Debtors, upon the written request of the successor Collateral
Agent and without representation, warranty or recourse, execute and deliver such
documents, instruments and agreements as are reasonably necessary to effect an
assignment of the rights and obligations of the retiring Collateral Agent to the
successor Collateral Agent. After any retiring Collateral Agent's resignation or
removal hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 2 shall
continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by it while it was acting as Collateral Agent.

       3. SECURITY INTERESTS; PRIORITIES; REMEDIES
          ----------------------------------------

       3.1 Acknowledgment of Liens; Priorities.
           -----------------------------------

              (a) Each Creditor and Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges that
Collateral Agent has been granted a Lien upon the Collateral for the benefit of
the Creditors. Notwithstanding any conflicting terms or conditions which may be
contained in any of the Agreements, the Liens upon the Collateral of Collateral
Agent for the benefit of Lender have and shall have priority over the Liens upon
the Collateral of Collateral Agent for the benefit of Note Creditors and such
Liens of Collateral Agent for the benefit of Note Creditors on the Collateral
are and shall be, in all respects, subject and subordinate to the Liens of
Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lender therein to the full extent of the
Lender Debt (subject to the limitation on the amount thereof provided for in the
definition of such term).

              (b) The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization
upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in the following order
of priorities:

                  (i) first, to the payment in full in immediately available
funds of the expenses of the collection and enforcement of the Lender Debt and
such sale, disposition or other realization of the Collateral, including all
expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by

                                        9

<PAGE>

Collateral Agent or Lender in connection therewith, or any amounts paid to or on
behalf of Collateral Agent by Lender in connection therewith;

                   (ii)  second, to the payment in full of all of the Lender
Debt (subject to the limitation on the amount thereof provided for in the
definition of such term) in whatever manner and order Lender chooses in
accordance with the provisions of the Lender Agreements and applicable law (and
including amounts to hold as cash collateral for any such Lender Debt which is
contingent in such amounts and on such terms as Lender may require pursuant
thereto);

                   (iii) third, to the Note Trustee for payment and satisfaction
in full in immediately available funds of all of the Noteholder Debt in whatever
manner and order Note Trustee chooses in accordance with the provisions of the
Noteholder Agreements and applicable law;

                   (iv)  fourth, to the payment of any other Lender Debt not
paid pursuant to clause (ii) above, if any, in whatever manner and order Lender
chooses in accordance with the provisions of the Lender Agreements and
applicable law; and

                   (v)   fifth, to the Debtors or such other person as may be
lawfully entitled thereto.

              (c)  Notwithstanding any instruction, notice or claim to the
contrary at any time received by Collateral Agent from any Note Creditor or
otherwise, Collateral Agent shall have no obligation, liability or
responsibility with respect to the distribution, delivery or remittance of any
proceeds of the Collateral to any Noteholder. Any proceeds of Collateral
received by Collateral Agent which are to be applied to the Noteholder Debt in
accordance with the terms hereof are only required to be remitted by Collateral
Agent to Note Trustee.

      3.2  Priorities Unaffected by Actions or Inactions. The lien priorities
           ---------------------------------------------
provided in Section 3.1 hereof shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any
amendment, modification, supplement, extension, renewal, restatement or
refinancing of either the Lender Debt or the Noteholder Debt, nor by any action
or inaction which Collateral Agent or any Creditor may take or fail to take in
respect of the Collateral. The foregoing provisions of this Agreement are
intended solely to govern the respective lien priorities as between the
Creditors and shall not impose on Collateral Agent any obligations in respect of
the disposition of proceeds of foreclosure or otherwise in respect of any
Collateral which would conflict with prior perfected claims therein in favor of
any other person or any order or decree of any court or other governmental
authority or any applicable law.

      3.3  No Contest of Lien. Lender and Note Trustee for itself and on behalf
           ------------------
of each Noteholder agrees that it will not contest the validity, perfection,
priority or enforceability of the Liens upon the Collateral of Collateral Agent
or any rights of Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral, or the
respective priorities assigned to the Liens securing the Noteholder Debt and the
Lender Debt herein, or the validity or reasonableness of any act or omission by
Collateral Agent

                                       10

<PAGE>

in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, the timing, method,
or manner of selling or otherwise disposing of or realizing upon any of the
Collateral, the terms (including the price and percentage of consideration
received in cash) of any such sale or other disposition or realization, or any
failure to sell, dispose of or realize upon any of the Collateral. As between
Lender and Note Creditors, the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement shall
govern even if part or all of the Lender Debt or the Noteholder Debt or the
Liens securing payment and performance thereof are not perfected or are avoided,
disallowed, set aside or otherwise invalidated in any judicial proceeding or
otherwise.

         3.4  Right to Enforce Agreement.
              --------------------------

                  (a) Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to manage,
perform and enforce the terms of the Security Agreements with respect to the
Collateral, to exercise and enforce all privileges and rights thereunder in
respect of the Collateral according to its discretion exercised in good faith
and the exercise of its exclusive business judgment (notwithstanding any default
or event of default under any of the Lender Agreements, Noteholder Agreements or
the Security Agreements), including, without limitation, the exclusive right to
administer, take or retake control or possession of any Collateral, to hold,
prepare for sale, process, sell, lease, dispose of, or liquidate any Collateral,
to foreclose or forbear from foreclosure in respect of any Collateral, seeking
or not seeking relief from any stay against foreclosure or other remedies in any
Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Collateral and the acceptance of any
Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any indebtedness. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in any of the Agreements, only Collateral
Agent shall have the right to restrict or permit, or approve or disapprove, the
sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral. No consent or approval by any
Note Creditor to any sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral by
Collateral Agent or by any Debtor with the approval of Collateral Agent shall be
required, and Collateral Agent may, without the consent of Note Creditors,
release its Lien on any Collateral so sold, transferred or disposed of, and
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any of the Agreements,
Note Creditors shall be deemed to have consented thereto (and Note Trustee shall
be deemed required to release its Lien for purposes of Section 10.05(c) of the
Note Indenture, which provision may not be amended or supplemented without the
prior consent of Collateral Agent), except that, in connection with any sale of
                                    ------ ----
Collateral by any Debtor with the approval of Collateral Agent, and the release
of the Lien of Collateral Agent, to the extent that the amount of the proceeds
that must be received from such sale by Debtors as a condition of the consent of
Lender to such sale are not set out in the Lender Agreements (as in effect on
the date hereof), and to the extent that Section 314 of the Trust Indenture Act
of 1939 may be applicable to such sale or release, the consent of Note Creditors
is subject only to (i) the receipt by Note Trustee of such certificates and
opinions as may be required under Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act of
1939, if any, and (ii) the receipt by Note Trustee of a request from a Debtor
for such consent, together with the written approval thereof by Collateral
Agent, and a certificate from officers of a Debtor and an opinion of counsel to
a Debtor that the conditions precedent to such release provided for in the Note
Indenture as in effect on the date hereof have been satisfied and therefore such
release is in accordance with the terms of the Note Indenture. Any costs and
expenses or other amounts paid or to be paid by Collateral Agent may be paid by
Lender and

                                       11

<PAGE>

shall constitute part of the Lender Debt secured by the Collateral. Nothing
contained in this Section 3.4(a) shall be construed to relieve Collateral Agent
from any liability to Creditors for any losses suffered by Creditors as a result
of an action by Collateral Agent in conducting a sale, transfer or other
disposition of any Collateral by Collateral Agent which is determined to
constitute gross negligence or wilful misconduct pursuant to a final,
non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Until Lender has
received payment in full of the Lender Debt, no Note Creditor shall have any
right to direct Lender or Collateral Agent to exercise any right, remedy or
power with respect to the Collateral and Note Trustee on behalf of each Note
Creditor consents to the exercise by Lender or Collateral Agent of any such
right, remedy or power as provided herein. No Note Creditor shall institute any
suit or assert in any suit, Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding any claim
against Note Trustee, Lender or Collateral Agent seeking damages from or other
relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise, with respect
to, and Note Trustee, Lender and Collateral Agent shall not be liable for, any
action taken or omitted to be taken by Note Trustee, Lender or Collateral Agent
with respect to the Collateral.

                (b)  Except as expressly permitted by Section 3.4(c) hereof,
notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to a Creditor under any of the
Agreements, applicable law or otherwise, without the consent of the Collateral
Agent, no Creditor shall directly or indirectly assert or exercise any right or
remedy as against any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, seeking
to foreclose or realize upon (judicially or non-judicially) any Collateral or
asserting any claims or interests therein (including, without limitation, by
setoff or notification of account debtors).

                (c)  Promptly upon the request of Collateral Agent, Lender or
Note Trustee will, at the expense of Debtors, join in enforcement, collection,
execution, levy or foreclosure proceedings with respect to the Collateral and
otherwise cooperate fully in the maintenance of such proceedings by Collateral
Agent, including, without limitation, by executing and delivering all such
directions, consents, pleadings, releases and other documents and instruments as
Collateral Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith, it being
understood that the conduct of such proceedings shall at all times be under the
exclusive control of Collateral Agent.

                (d)  Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (and including
any amendments, assignments, correction statements or termination statements
with respect thereto), mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt and other
instruments to perfect the Liens of Collateral Agent in certain of the
Collateral shall be filed by Collateral Agent naming Collateral Agent as the
secured party. No Creditor shall file any Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements (and including any amendments, assignments, correction statements or
termination statements with respect thereto), mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds
to secure debt and other instruments with respect to the Collateral, unless
Collateral Agent shall fail to do so within ten (10) business days of receiving
notice that any of the foregoing have not been properly filed or have lapsed,
except if Collateral Agent is not permitted to file such financing statements,
mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt or other instruments as a result
of any applicable statute or regulation or order of any court or other
governmental authority, and then in such case,

                                       12

<PAGE>

only with the prior written consent of Collateral Agent. No Creditor shall
exercise or assert any right to exercise any voting rights in respect of any act
or omission by Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral (or the
disposition of the proceeds thereof), or to direct or assert any right to direct
Collateral Agent. Collateral Agent may amend, modify, supplement or waive any
provision of any Security Agreement only with the approval of Lender until the
payment in full of the Lender Debt and thereafter only with the approval of Note
Trustee, except that, Collateral Agent may not waive any default or event of
default arising under the Note Indenture or the Lender Agreements.

         3.5  Rights of Collateral Agent in Insolvency Proceedings.  In the
              ----------------------------------------------------
event of any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Debtor,

                  (a)  in addition to any other rights granted hereunder,
Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name
or in the name of any Creditor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to
take such action on behalf of the Creditors as it may deem necessary or
advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of
the parties hereunder or under any Security Agreement; and

                  (b)  Lender and Note Trustee (for itself and on behalf of the
Noteholders) shall duly and promptly take such action as Collateral Agent may
reasonably request to permit Collateral Agent (i) to collect any Collateral (or
any distribution in respect thereof) for the account of any Creditor and file
appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of any Collateral and (ii) to
execute and deliver such powers of attorney, assignments or other instruments as
Collateral Agent may reasonably require to enforce any and all claims with
respect to any Collateral on behalf of Creditors and to collect and receive on
behalf of the Creditors any and all payments or distributions that may be
payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Collateral and distribute
same in accordance with the terms hereof.

         3.6  Specific Performance. Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to
              --------------------
demand specific performance of this Intercreditor Agreement at any time when any
Creditor shall have failed to comply with any of the provisions of this
Intercreditor Agreement applicable to it. Each Creditor hereby irrevocably
waives any defense which might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific
performance.

         3.7  Sale and Release of Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the
              ------------------------------
contrary contained in any of the Agreements, until payment in full of the Lender
Debt, only Lender shall have the right to restrict or permit, or approve or
disapprove, the sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral, subject in
certain circumstances to the receipt by Note Trustee of certain certificates and
opinions as set forth in Section 3.4(a) hereof.

         3.8  Permitted Payments.
              ------------------

                                       13

<PAGE>

                  (a) Debtors shall not, without the prior written consent of
Collateral Agent in each instance, directly or indirectly, make, and Note
Trustee shall not accept, any payments in respect of the Noteholder Debt, except
                                                                          ------
for (i) regularly scheduled payments of interest in the form of additional
indebtedness with substantially the same terms as the Senior Secured Notes (as
in effect on the date hereof) in accordance with the terms of the Noteholder
Agreements as in effect on the date hereof until after the date that is the
third anniversary of the date of this Intercreditor Agreement and thereafter in
cash as provided in the Senior Secured Notes as in effect on the date hereof,
(ii) the principal on or after the date which is the fifth anniversary of the
date hereof and (iii) regularly scheduled payments of interest when due in
accordance with the terms of the Senior Secured Notes (as in effect on the date
hereof) in cash or other immediately available funds after the first anniversary
of the date hereof, provided, that, as to any such payment under this clause
                    --------  ----
(a)(iii), Collateral Agent shall have notified Note Trustee in writing that each
of the following conditions is satisfied:

                         (A) no event of default, or act, condition or event
which with notice or passage of time would constitute an event of default, under
the Lender Agreements shall exist or have occurred (provided, that, any such
                                                    --------  ----
notice by Lender to Note Trustee shall not be deemed a waiver of any such
default or event of default which may exist or a waiver or release of any rights
or remedies of Lender or Collateral Agent pursuant to any such default or event
of default or otherwise);

                         (B) as of the date of any such payment, the Excess
Availability (as such term is defined in the Lender Agreements) shall have been
not less than $5,000,000 for each of the immediately preceding thirty (30)
consecutive days; and

                         (C) as of the date of any such payment and after giving
effect thereto, the Excess Availability shall be not less than $5,000,000.

                  (b) Unless Note Trustee shall have received written notice
from Lender to the contrary, should Note Trustee receive any payment in respect
of the Noteholder Debt in contravention of Section 3.8(a) hereof, Note Trustee
shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of Lender,
segregated from other funds and property of Note Trustee and shall forthwith
deliver the same to Lender (together with any endorsement or assignment of Note
Trustee where necessary or desirable), for application to any of the Lender
Debt. In the event of the failure of Note Trustee to make any such endorsement
or assignment to Lender, Lender or any of its officers or employees, are hereby
irrevocably authorized on behalf of such Note Trustee to make the same.

                  (c) Nothing contained in this Section 3.8 shall be construed
to limit the right of Debtors to make, and Note Trustee to accept, payments
required to be made by Debtors under the Note Indenture (as in effect on the
date hereof) to Note Trustee solely for the account of Note Trustee and for its
own benefit which payments are to be retained by Note Trustee (and are not made
to Note Trustee for distribution to any Noteholder).

                                       14

<PAGE>

         3.9  Delivery of Collateral. In the event that any Note Creditor shall
              ----------------------
obtain possession, custody or control of any of the Collateral (which shall not
be deemed to include proceeds of loans to a Debtor deposited with the Note
Trustee to pay principal and interest in respect of the Senior Secured Notes to
the extent such payment is permitted hereunder or proceeds of Collateral
distributed in accordance with Section 3.1(b) hereof), prior to the payment in
full of the Lender Debt, such Note Creditor shall receive and hold the same in
trust, as trustee, for the benefit of Collateral Agent, and shall immediately
transfer and deliver such Collateral to Collateral Agent (together with any
endorsement or assignment of such Note Creditor where necessary or desirable).
In the event of the failure of any Note Creditor to make any such endorsement or
assignment to Collateral Agent, Collateral Agent, or any of its officers or
employees, are hereby irrevocably authorized on behalf of such Note Creditor to
make the same. In the event that at any time all or part of any payment with
respect to the Lender Debt previously made is rescinded or required to be
returned for any reason, each Note Creditor shall promptly deliver to Collateral
Agent any Collateral then held by it and the provisions of this Intercreditor
Agreement shall be reinstated as if such payment had not been made.

         3.10 Bailee for Perfection. Collateral Agent and each Creditor hereby
              ---------------------
appoints each other Creditor as agent for the purpose of perfecting the Liens
upon the Collateral which, in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code as
from time to time in effect, can be perfected only by possession or where such
possession or control results in the Liens of Collateral Agent having priority
over any other Liens and each hereby agrees to serve, as agent and bailee for
the other Creditors for such purpose and any Creditor that at any time has any
Collateral in its possession acknowledges that it holds and will hold possession
of such Collateral for the benefit of Lender and Note Trustee, subject to the
obligation to deliver such Collateral to Collateral Agent as provided herein.

         3.11 Notices of Default and Acceleration. Each Creditor shall give to
              -----------------------------------
the other Creditor (or in the case of Lender, shall give only to Note Trustee
for itself and the Noteholders) concurrently with the giving thereof to any
Debtor, a copy of any written notice by such Creditor of either (a) a default or
an event of default under its Agreements with such Debtor or (b) written notice
of demand for payment from such Debtor; provided, that, the failure of any party
to give any such notice to the other shall not affect the relative priorities of
Creditors' respective Liens as provided herein or the validity or effectiveness
of any such notice as against any Debtor. Each Debtor hereby authorizes and
consents to each Creditor sending any such notices to the other Creditors or
providing any other information with respect to any Debtor to the other
Creditors.

         3.12 Opportunity to Cure. Lender shall have the right, but not any
              -------------------
obligation, to cure for the account of Debtors any default by any Debtor under
the Noteholder Agreements at any time within fifteen (15) days after the date of
the receipt by Lender of written notice from Note Trustee of an event of default
under the Noteholder Agreements as a result of the failure of any Debtor to make
any payment when due thereunder or at any time within (30) days after the date
of written notice from Note Trustee of an event of default under the Noteholder
Agreements for any other reason or the applicable cure period provided for in
the Noteholder Agreements if longer (and if a payment default on an
unaccelerated basis). In no event shall Lender by virtue of

                                       15

<PAGE>

the payment of amounts, or performance of any obligation required to be paid or
performed by any Debtor, be deemed to have assumed any obligation of any Debtor
to any Note Creditor or any other person.

         40   COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
              -----------------------------------------

         4.1  Additional Covenants.  Note Trustee and each Debtor (in each case

Creditor of or under any provision, condition or covenant to this Intercreditor
Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent it is set
forth in writing and as to the specific facts or circumstances covered thereby.
Any amendment of this Intercreditor Agreement must be in writing and signed by
each of the parties to be bound thereby (except as to Note Creditors, under the
terms of the Note Indenture each Noteholder has agreed to be bound thereby
notwithstanding that such amendment may be signed only by the Note Trustee, and
Lender is hereby authorized to rely on such execution by Note Trustee without
inquiry as to its right or authority to so bind any Noteholder).

         5.2  Successors and Assigns.
              ----------------------

                  (a)  This Intercreditor Agreement shall be binding upon the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to
the benefit of each Creditor and its respective successors, participants and
assigns. Notwithstanding that each Noteholder may not execute and deliver this
Intercreditor Agreement, under the terms of the Indenture by acceptance of any
Senior Secured Note, a Noteholder has agreed to be bound hereby as if such
Noteholder had executed and delivered this Intercreditor Agreement and the terms
set forth herein are incorporated into and shall be deemed a part of each of the
Senior Secured Notes. Lender is relying upon the binding nature of this
Intercreditor Agreement upon each Note Creditor.

                  (b)  Lender reserves the right to grant participations in, or
otherwise sell, assign, transfer or negotiate all or any part of, or any
interest in, the Lender Debt and the Collateral securing same; provided, that,
Note Trustee shall not be obligated to give any notices to or otherwise in any
manner deal directly with any participant in the Lender Debt and no participant
shall be entitled to any rights or benefits under this Intercreditor Agreement
except through Lender. In connection with any participation or other transfer or
assignment, Lender (i) may disclose to such assignee, participant or other
transferee or assignee all documents and information which Lender now or
hereafter may have relating to the Lender Debt or the Collateral and (ii) shall
disclose to such participant or other transferee or assignee the existence and
terms and conditions of this Intercreditor Agreement.

                  (c)  In connection with any successor financing or replacement
in respect of the Lender Debt, Note Trustee agrees (and has been irrevocably
authorized and directed by each Noteholder pursuant to the terms of the Note
Indenture) to execute and deliver an agreement containing terms substantially
identical to those contained herein (including the limitation on the amount of
Lender Debt entitled to priority as provided for in the definition of the term
Lender Debt contained herein) in favor of any such successor or replacement
lenders.

         5.3  Insolvency.
              ----------

                  (a)  This Intercreditor Agreement shall be applicable both
before and after the filing of any petition by or against a Debtor under the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code and all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof,
and all references herein to a Debtor shall be deemed to

                                       19

<PAGE>

apply to a trustee for such Debtor and such Debtor as debtor-in-possession. The
relative rights of Lender and Note Creditors to repayment of the Lender Debt and
the Noteholder Debt, respectively, and in or to any distributions from or in
respect of any Debtor or any Collateral or proceeds of Collateral, shall
continue after the filing thereof on the same basis as prior to the date of the
petition, subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash
collateral by, such Debtor as debtor-in-possession.

                  (b) Each Creditor shall be entitled to vote its claim in any
Insolvency Proceeding so long as no Creditor (i) challenges any Liens of
Collateral Agent or (ii) challenges or disputes the validity of this
Intercreditor Agreement.

         5.4 Bankruptcy Financing. If a Debtor shall become subject to a
             --------------------
proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and if Lender desires to permit the
use of cash collateral or to provide financing to such Debtor under either
Section 363 or Section 364 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, each Note Creditor
agrees as follows: (a) adequate notice to Note Creditors shall have been
provided for such financing or use of cash collateral if Note Trustee receives
notice five (5) business days prior to the entry of the order approving such
financing or use of cash collateral and (b) no objection will be raised by Note
Creditors to any such financing or use of cash collateral on the ground of a
failure to provide "adequate protection" for the junior Liens of Note Trustee on
the Collateral or any other grounds, provided (i) Collateral Agent retains a
Lien on the post-petition Collateral for the benefit of Note Trustee with the
same priority as existed prior to the commencement of the proceeding under the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code to the extent Collateral Agent may be entitled to such a
Lien on behalf of Note Trustee and Note Trustee is permitted to receive such
payments of interest during such proceeding as adequate protection as it may
have been entitled to hereunder and under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, if any and
(ii) the principal amount of the maximum commitments to provide such
post-petition financing, when aggregated with the principal amount of the loans
outstanding under the Lender Agreements immediately prior to the commencement of
such proceeding, would not exceed $45,000,000 and the percentage of the margin
of the interest rate with respect to the Lender Debt after the commencement of
such proceedings shall not be more than one (1%) percentage point per annum
greater than the percentage of the margin as in effect immediately prior to the
commencement of such proceeding. For purposes of this Section, notice of a
proposed financing or use of cash collateral shall be deemed given when given,
in the manner prescribed by Section 5.5 hereof, to Note Trustee.

         5.5 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the
             -------
