     repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged (in each case other than
     Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving credit facility unless such
     Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and has not been replaced) on the
     date of the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the

     for such period, or increased by an amount equal to EBITDA (if negative),
     directly attributable thereto for such period and Consolidated Interest
     Expense for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the
     Consolidated Interest Expense directly

                                                                               6

     attributable to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted
     Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged with
     respect to the Company and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in
     connection with such Asset Disposition for such period (or, if the Capital

     Expense for such period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such

     or an acquisition of assets, including any Investment or acquisition of
     assets occurring in connection with a transaction requiring a calculation
     to be made hereunder EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such
     period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including
     the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition
     had occurred on the first day of such period, and

         (E) if since the beginning of such period any Person (that subsequently
     became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Company or
     any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) shall have
     made any Asset Disposition, any Investment or acquisition of assets that
     would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (C) or (D) above if
     made by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, EBITDA
     and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after
     giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Asset Disposition, Investment or
     acquisition had occurred on the first day of such period.

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to an
acquisition of assets, the amount of income or earnings relating thereto and the
amount of Consolidated Interest Expense associated with any Indebtedness
Incurred in connection therewith, the pro forma calculations shall be determined
in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting Officer of the Company.
If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro
forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the
rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the
entire period (taking into account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to
such Indebtedness if such Interest Rate Agreement has a remaining term in excess
of 12 months). Interest on a Capital Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue
at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or
accounting Officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such
Capital Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that
may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime
or similar rate, a eurodollar interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be
deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based
upon such optional rate chosen as the Company may designate.

                                                                               7

         If any Indebtedness has been incurred under a revolving credit facility
or revolving advances with respect to any Permitted Securitization and is being
given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated
based on the average daily balance of such Indebtedness for the four fiscal
quarters subject to the pro forma calculation.

     or trust; and

         (11) commissions, discounts, yield and other fees and charges Incurred
     in connection with Permitted Securitizations during such period which are

                                   ARTICLE 2

                                 The Securities
                                 --------------

         SECTION 2.01. Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Initial
Securities, the Private Exchange Securities and the Exchange Securities are set
forth in the Rule 144A/Regulation S Appendix attached hereto (the "Appendix")
which is hereby incorporated in, and expressly made part of, this Indenture. The
Initial Securities and the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 to the

                                                                              31

Appendix which is hereby incorporated in, and expressly made a part of, this
Indenture. The Exchange Securities, the Private Exchange Securities and the
Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this
Indenture. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required
by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any,
or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form
acceptable to the Company). Each Security shall be dated the date of its
authentication. The terms of the Securities set forth in the Appendix and
Exhibits A and 1 are part of the terms of this Indenture.

         SECTION 2.02. Execution and Authentication. Two Officers shall sign the
Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.

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

         A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the
Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. The
signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated
under this Indenture.

         The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable
to the Company to authenticate the Securities. Unless limited by the terms of
such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever
the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the
Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the
same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and
demands.

         SECTION 2.03. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an
office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer
or for exchange (the "Registrar") and an office or agency where Securities may
be presented for payment (the "Paying Agent"). The Registrar shall keep a
register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may
have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The
term "Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent.

         The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any
Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture, which
shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. The agreement shall implement the
provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify
the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to
maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be
entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The
Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary incorporated or organized within The
United States of America may act as Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or
transfer agent.

         The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying
Agent in connection with the Securities.

                                                                              32

         SECTION 2.04. Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust. Prior to each due
date of the principal and interest on any Security, the Company shall deposit
with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when
so becoming due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the
Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the
benefit of Securityholders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for
the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities and shall notify the
Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company
or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as
Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may
require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account
for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section,
the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the
Trustee.

         SECTION 2.05. Securityholder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as
current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it
of the names and addresses of Securityholders. If the Trustee is not the
Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five
Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the
Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the
Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Securityholders.

         SECTION 2.06. Transfer and Exchange. The Securities shall be issued in
registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Security
for registration of transfer. When a Security is presented to the Registrar or a
co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register
the transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture and Section
8-401(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met. When Securities are presented
to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal
principal amount of Securities of other denominations, the Registrar shall make
the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. The Company may
require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other
governmental charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to
this Section 2.06.

         SECTION 2.07. Replacement Securities. If a mutilated Security is
surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the
Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue
and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the requirements of
Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder satisfies
any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or
the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the
judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the
Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them
may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge the
Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security (including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements in replacing such Security).

         Every replacement Security is an additional Obligation of the Company.

                                                                              33

         In the event of any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken
Security has become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may pay such
Security instead of issuing a new Security in replacement thereof.

         SECTION 2.08. Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any
time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled
by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this
Section as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding because
the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security.

         If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be
outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to
them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser (as defined in
Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code).

         If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with
this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay
all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities
(or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and the
Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Securityholders on
that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date
such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on
them ceases to accrue.

         SECTION 2.09. Temporary Securities. Until Definitive Securities are
ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate
temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of
Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers
appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company
shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities and
deliver them in exchange for temporary Securities.

         SECTION 2.10. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver
Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent
shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration
of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel and
destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all
Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or
cancellation and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company unless
the Company directs the Trustee to deliver canceled Securities to the Company.
The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed,
paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

         SECTION 2.11. Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment
of interest on the Securities, the Company shall pay defaulted interest (plus
interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner.
The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the persons who are
Securityholders on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix or
cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and

                                                                              34

shall promptly mail to each Securityholder a notice that states the special
record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.

         SECTION 2.12. CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, etc. The Company in issuing the
Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers, ISINs and "Common Code" numbers (in each
case if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP"
numbers, ISINs and "Common Code" numbers in notices of redemption as a
convenience to Holders; provided, however, 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 redemption and that
reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the
Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such numbers. The Company shall advise the Trustee in writing of any
change in any "CUSIP" numbers, ISINs or "Common Code" numbers applicable to the
Securities.

         SECTION 2.13. Issuance of Additional Securities. After the Issue Date,
the Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.03, to
issue Additional Securities under this Indenture, which Securities shall have
identical terms as the Initial Securities issued on the Issue Date, other than
with respect to the date of issuance and issue price. All the Securities issued
under this Indenture shall be treated as a single class for all purposes of this
Indenture including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase.

         With respect to any Additional Securities, the Company shall set forth
in a resolution of the Board of Directors and an Officers' Certificate, a copy
of each which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information:

         (1) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Securities to be
     authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture and the provision of
     Section 4.03 that the Company is relying on to issue such Additional
     Securities;

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

         (3) whether such Additional Securities shall be Initial Securities as
     set forth in Exhibit 1 or shall be issued in the form of Exchange
     Securities as set forth in Exhibit A.

                                   ARTICLE 3

                                   Redemption
                                   ----------

         SECTION 3.01. Notices to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem
Securities pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Securities, it shall notify the
Trustee in writing

                                                                              35

of the redemption date, the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and
the paragraph of the Securities pursuant to which the redemption will occur.

         The Company shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in this
Section at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date
unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. Such notice shall be
accompanied by an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the
Company to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions
herein.

         SECTION 3.02. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed. If fewer than all
the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be
redeemed pro rata to the extent practicable. The Trustee shall make the
selection from outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption. The
Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities that
have denominations larger than $1,000. Securities and portions of them the
Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts of $1,000 or a whole multiple of
$1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for
redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. The
Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the Securities or portions of
Securities to be redeemed.

         SECTION 3.03. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than
60 days before a date for redemption of Securities, the Company shall mail a
notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder of Securities to be
redeemed at such Holder's registered address.

         The notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall
state:

         (1) the redemption date;

         (2) the redemption price;

         (3) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

         (4) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the
     Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

         (5) if fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed,
     the identification and principal amounts of the particular Securities to be
     redeemed;

         (6) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment
     or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the
     terms of this Indenture, interest on Securities (or portion thereof) called
     for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

         (7) the "CUSIP" number, ISIN or "Common Code" number, if any, printed
     on the Securities being redeemed; and

                                                                              36

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

         At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company's name and at the Company's expense. In such event,
the Company shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this
Section.

         SECTION 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption
is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the
redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon surrender
to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price
stated in the notice, plus accrued interest to the redemption date (subject to
the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest
due on the related interest payment date), and such Securities shall be canceled
by the Trustee. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder
shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

         SECTION 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to the redemption
date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a
Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money
sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Securities
to be redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions of Securities
called for redemption which have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee
for cancellation.

         SECTION 3.06. Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security
that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate for the Holder (at the Company's expense) a new Security equal in
principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

                                    ARTICLE 4

                                    Covenants
                                    ---------

         SECTION 4.01. Payment of Securities. The Company shall promptly pay the
principal of and interest on the Securities on the dates and in the manner
provided in the Securities and in this Indenture. Principal and interest shall
be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying
Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all
principal and interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case
may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Securityholders on that
date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

         The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate
specified therefor in the Securities, and it shall pay interest on overdue
installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful.

         SECTION 4.02. SEC Reports. Whether or not the Company is subject to the
reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company
will

                                                                              37

file with the SEC (subject to the next sentence) and provide the Trustee and
Securityholders with such annual reports and other reports as are specified in
Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation
subject to such Sections, such reports to be so filed and provided that the
times specified for the filings of such reports under such Sections and
containing in all material respects, all the information, audit reports and
exhibits required for such reports. If at any time, the Company is not subject
to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the
Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding
sentence with the SEC within the time periods required unless the SEC will not
accept such a filing. The Company agrees that it will not take any action for
the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept any such filings. If
notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept such filings for any
reason, the Company will post the reports specified in the preceding sentence on
its website within the time periods that would apply if the Company were
required to file those reports with the SEC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company may satisfy such requirements prior to the effectiveness of any
registration statement filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement
entered into on the Issue Date by filing with the SEC the registration
statement, to the extent that any such registration statement contains
substantially the same information as would be required to be filed by the
Company if it were subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act, and by providing the Trustee and Securityholders with such
registration statement (and any amendments thereto) promptly following the
filing thereof.

         In addition, in the event that:

         (a) the rules and regulations of the SEC permit a parent entity to
report at such parent entity's level on a consolidated basis, and

         (b) such parent entity is a Guarantor of the Securities and is not
engaged in any business in any material respect other than incidental to its
ownership of the Capital Stock of the Company,

         such consolidated reporting by such parent entity in a manner
consistent with that described in this Section 4.02 for the Company will satisfy
this Section 4.02.

         At any time that any of the Company's Subsidiaries are Unrestricted
Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by
the preceding paragraph will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either
on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations," of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and
results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company.

         In addition, the Company shall furnish to the Holder of the Securities
and to prospective investors, upon the requests of such Holders, any information
required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act so
long as any

                                                                              38

Securities are not freely transferable under the Securities Act. The Company
also shall comply with the other provisions of TIA (Section) 314(a).

         SECTION 4.03. Limitation on Indebtedness. (a) The Company shall not,
and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur, directly or
indirectly, any Indebtedness; provided, however, that the Company and its
Subsidiary Guarantors shall be entitled to Incur Indebtedness if, on the date of
such Incurrence and after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, the
Consolidated Coverage Ratio exceeds 2.0 to 1.

         (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph (a), the Company and the
Restricted Subsidiaries shall be entitled to Incur any or all of the following
Indebtedness:

         (1) Indebtedness Incurred by the Company and any Restricted
     Subsidiaries party thereto pursuant to the Credit Facilities; provided,
     however, that, immediately after giving effect to any such Incurrence, the
     aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness Incurred under this clause
     (b)(1) and then outstanding does not exceed $500.0 million less the sum of
     all principal payments with respect to such Indebtedness pursuant to
     Section 4.06(a)(3)(A);

         (2) Indebtedness owed to and held by the Company or a Restricted
     Subsidiary; provided, however, that (A) any subsequent issuance or transfer
     of any Capital Stock which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary
     ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of such
     Indebtedness (other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) shall
     be deemed, in each case, to constitute the Incurrence of such Indebtedness
     by the obligor thereon, (B) any Indebtedness of the Company owing to any
     Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be expressly
     subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with
     respect to the Securities and (C) any Indebtedness of a Subsidiary
     Guarantor owing to any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary
     Guarantor shall be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in
     cash of all obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor or with respect to its
     Subsidiary Guaranty;

         (3) the Securities and the Exchange Securities (other than any
     Additional Securities);

         (4) Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date (other than Indebtedness
     described in clause (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 4.03(b));

         (5) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary Incurred and outstanding on
     or prior to the date on which such Subsidiary was acquired by the Company
     (other than Indebtedness Incurred in connection with, or to provide all or
     any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, the
     transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such
     Subsidiary became a Subsidiary or was acquired by the Company); provided,
     however, that on the date of such acquisition and after giving pro forma
     effect thereto, the Company would have

                                                                              39

     been entitled to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant

Subordinated Obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor unless such
Indebtedness shall be subordinated to the Securities or the applicable
Subsidiary Guaranty to at least the same extent as such Subordinated
Obligations.

         (d) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03,

         (1) any Indebtedness remaining outstanding under the Credit Agreement

         (2) in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof)
     meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described
     above, the Company, in its sole discretion, will classify such item of

     of the above clauses,

         (3) the Company will be entitled at the time of Incurrence to divide
     and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of
     Indebtedness described above, and with respect to any Indebtedness Incurred
     pursuant to any specific clause under Section 4.03(b), the Company may
     after such Indebtedness is Incurred reclassify all or a portion of such
     Indebtedness under a different clause of Section 4.03(b); and

         (4) Indebtedness Incurred under clauses (11), (12) and (14) of Section

     incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a) if at any date after such Indebtedness
     is Incurred such Indebtedness could have been Incurred under Section
     4.03(a) but only to the extent such Indebtedness could have been so
     Incurred.

         (e) Notwithstanding Section 4.03(a) or 4.03(b), neither the Company nor
any Subsidiary Guarantor shall Incur (1) any Indebtedness if such Indebtedness
is subordinate or junior in ranking in any respect to any Senior Indebtedness of
the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, unless such
Indebtedness is Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or such
Subsidiary Guarantor or is expressly subordinated in right of payment to Senior
Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as
applicable, or (2) any Secured Indebtedness that is not

                                                                              41

Senior Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable,
unless contemporaneously therewith the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor
makes effective provisions to secure the Securities or the relevant Subsidiary
Guaranty, as applicable, equally and ratably with such Secured Indebtedness for
so long as such Secured Indebtedness is secured by a Lien.

         (f) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar
restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness where the Indebtedness Incurred is
denominated in a different currency, the amount of such Indebtedness will be the
U.S. Dollar Equivalent, determined on the date of the Incurrence of such
Indebtedness; provided, however, that if any such Indebtedness denominated in a
different currency is subject to a Currency Agreement with respect to U.S.
dollars, covering all principal, premium, if any, and interest payable on such
Indebtedness, the amount of such Indebtedness expressed in U.S. dollars shall be
as provided in such Currency Agreement. The principal amount of any Refinancing
Indebtedness Incurred in the same currency as the non-U.S. currency Indebtedness
being Refinanced shall be deemed to be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the
Indebtedness Refinanced at the time of such Refinancing even if the principal
amount of the Refinancing Indebtedness in such non-U.S. currency at the time of
Incurrence exceeds the principal amount of the Indebtedness in such non-U.S.
currency being Refinanced, except to the extent that such U.S. Dollar Equivalent
was determined based on a Currency Agreement, in which case the Refinancing
Indebtedness shall be determined in accordance with the preceding sentence.

not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to

         quarter immediately following the fiscal quarter during which the Issue
         Date occurs to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter ended for
         which internal financial statements are available prior to the date of
         such Restricted Payment (or, in case such Consolidated Net Income shall
         be a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit); plus

                                                                              42

         contribution in respect of, Capital Stock (other than Disqualified
         Stock) of the Company (other than any such property received from a
         Subsidiary of the Company); provided that if the Fair Market Value of
         any Additional Assets exceeds $25.0 million, such Fair Market Value
         shall be confirmed by an Independent Qualified Party and (z) 100% of
         any cash capital contribution received by the Company from its
         shareholders subsequent to the Issue Date; plus

               (C) the amount by which Indebtedness of the Company is reduced on
         the Company's balance sheet upon the conversion or exchange subsequent
         to the Issue Date of any Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted
         Subsidiary convertible or exchangeable for Capital Stock (other than
         Disqualified Stock) of the Company (less the amount of any cash, or the
         fair value of any other property, distributed by the Company upon such
         conversion or exchange) provided, however, that the foregoing amount
         shall not exceed the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company or any
         Restricted Subsidiary from the sale of such Indebtedness (excluding Net
         Cash Proceeds from sales to a Subsidiary of the Company or to an
         employee stock ownership plan or a trust established by the Company or
         any of its Subsidiaries for the benefit of their employees); plus

               (D) an amount equal to the sum of (i) the net reduction in the
         Investments (other than Permitted Investments) made by the Company or
         any Restricted Subsidiary in any Person resulting from repurchases,
         repayments or redemptions of such Investments by such Person, proceeds
         realized on the sale of such Investment and proceeds representing the
         return of capital (excluding dividends and distributions), in each case
         received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) to the
         extent such Person is an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the portion
         (proportionate to the Company's equity interest in such Subsidiary) of
         the fair market value of the net assets of such Unrestricted Subsidiary
         at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted
         Subsidiary; provided, however, that, except in the case of any
         Subsidiary that is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary on the
         Issue Date, the foregoing sum shall not exceed, in the case of any
         Person or Unrestricted Subsidiary, the amount of Investments (excluding
         Permitted Investments) previously

                                                                              43

     ownership plan or to a trust established by the Company or any of its
     Subsidiaries for the benefit of their employees) or a substantially
     concurrent cash capital contribution received by the Company from its
     shareholders; provided, however, that (A) such Restricted Payment shall be
     excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments and (B)

         agreements, limited liability company organizational documents, and
         other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of
         business, consistent with past practice or with the approval of the
         Company's Board of Directors, which limitation is applicable only to
         the assets, property or Capital Stock that are the subject of such
         agreements;

               (H) restrictions on cash, Temporary Cash Investment or other

               (J) any restriction arising under applicable law, regulation or
         order.

         (2) with respect to clause (c) only,

               (A) any encumbrance or restriction consisting of customary
         nonassignment provisions in leases governing leasehold interests to the
         extent such provisions restrict the transfer of the lease or the
         property leased thereunder;

               (B) any encumbrance or restriction contained in security
         agreements or mortgages securing Indebtedness of a Restricted

     restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or
     refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in
     paragraphs (1) and (2) above; provided that such amendments, modifications,
     restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or
     refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Company, no more
     restrictive with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions
     than those contained in the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to
     such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement,
     refunding, replacement or refinancing.

         SECTION 4.06. Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock. (a)
The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Disposition unless (1) the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset
Disposition at least equal to the Fair Market Value (including as to the value
of all non-cash consideration) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset
Disposition; (2) at least 75% of the consideration thereof received by the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or cash
equivalents; and (3) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such
Asset Disposition is applied by the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
the case may be) (A) to the extent the Company elects (or is required by the
terms of any Indebtedness), to prepay, repay, redeem or purchase Senior
Indebtedness of the Company or Indebtedness (other than any Disqualified Stock)
of a Restricted Subsidiary (in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the
Company or an Affiliate of the Company) within one year from the later of the
date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash; (B) to
the extent the Company elects, to acquire Additional Assets within one year from
the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net
Available Cash; and (C) to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash
after application in accordance with clauses (A) and (B), to make an offer to
the holders of the Securities (and to holders of other Senior Subordinated
Indebtedness of the Company designated by the Company) to purchase Securities
(and such other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company) within one year
from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or receipt of such Net
Available Cash pursuant to and subject to the conditions contained in this
Indenture; provided, however, that in connection with any prepayment, repayment
or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to clause (A) or (C) above, the Company or
such Restricted Subsidiary shall permanently retire such Indebtedness and shall
cause the related loan commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an
amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased.

         Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as
provided above within one year from the later of the date of such Asset
Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash, shall be used for the
purpose contemplated in Section 4.06(a)(3)(C). Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 4.06, the

                                                                              49

Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be required to apply any Net
Available Cash in accordance with this Section 4.06 except to the extent that
the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions which is not
applied in accordance with this Section 4.06 exceeds $20.0 million. Pending
application of Net Available Cash pursuant to this Section 4.06, such Net
Available Cash shall be invested in Temporary Cash Investments or applied to
temporarily reduce revolving credit indebtedness.

         For the purposes of this Section 4.06(a), the following are deemed to
be cash or cash equivalents: (i) Temporary Cash Investments, (ii) the assumption
or discharge of Indebtedness of the Company (other than Obligations in respect
of Disqualified Stock of the Company) or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than
obligations in respect of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of a Subsidiary
Guarantor) and the release of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from all
liability on such Indebtedness other than, in each case, Indebtedness
constituting Subordinated Obligations in connection with such Asset Disposition,
(iii) securities received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the
transferee that are promptly converted by the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion
within 90 days of the receipt of such securities; and (iv) any Additional Assets
(so long as such Additional Assets are acquired for Fair Market Value in
connection with the transaction giving rise to such Asset Disposition; provided,
however, that the determination of Fair Market Value must be based on an opinion
or appraisal issued by an Independent Qualified Party if such Fair Market Value
exceeds $25.0 million), which Additional Assets shall be deemed to have been
acquired pursuant to Section 4.03(a)(3)(B) of the first paragraph of this
covenant in connection with such Asset Disposition.

         (b) In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of
Securities (and other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company) pursuant
to Section 4.06(a)(3)(C), the Company shall purchase Securities tendered
pursuant to an offer by the Company for the Securities (and such other Senior
Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company) (the "Offer") at a purchase price of
100% of their principal amount (or, in the event such other Senior Subordinated
Indebtedness of the Company was issued with significant original issue discount,
100% of the accreted value thereof) without premium, plus accrued but unpaid
interest (or, in respect of such other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the
Company, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such
Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company) in accordance with the
procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in
Section 4.06(c). If the aggregate purchase price of securities tendered exceeds
the Net Available Cash allotted to their purchase, the Company shall select the
securities to be purchased on a pro rata basis but in round denominations, which
in the case of the Securities will be denominations of $1,000 principal amount
or multiples thereof. The Company shall not be required to make an Offer to
purchase Securities (and other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company)
pursuant to this Section 4.06 if the Net Available Cash available therefor is
less than $20.0 million (which lesser amount shall be carried forward for
purposes of determining whether such an Offer is required with respect to the
Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition). Upon

                                                                              50

completion of such an Offer, Net Available Cash shall be deemed to be reduced by
the aggregate amount of such Offer.

         (c) (1) Promptly, and in any event within 10 days after the Company
becomes obligated to make an Offer, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee and
send, by first-class mail to each Holder, a written notice stating that the
Holder may elect to have his Securities purchased by the Company either in whole
or in part (subject to prorating as described in Section 4.06(b) in the event
the Offer is oversubscribed) in integral multiples of $1,000 of principal
amount, at the applicable purchase price. The notice shall specify a purchase
date not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice
(the "Purchase Date") and shall contain the most recently filed Annual Report on
Form 10-K (including audited consolidated financial statements) of the Company,
the most recent subsequently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and any Current
Report on Form 8-K of the Company filed subsequent to such Quarterly Report,
other than Current Reports describing Asset Dispositions otherwise described in
the offering materials (or corresponding successor reports), in each case, to
the extent not publicly available and all instructions and materials necessary
to tender Securities pursuant to the Offer, together with the information
contained in clause (3).

         (2) Not later than the date upon which written notice of an Offer is
     delivered to the Trustee as provided below, the Company shall deliver to
     the Trustee an Officers' Certificate as to (A) the amount of the Offer (the
     "Offer Amount"), including information as to any other Senior Subordinated
     Indebtedness included in the Offer, (B) the allocation of the Net Available
     Cash from the Asset Dispositions pursuant to which such Offer is being made
     and (C) the compliance of such allocation with the provisions of Section
     4.06(a) and (b). On such date, the Company shall also irrevocably deposit
     with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as
     its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust) in Temporary Cash
     Investments, maturing on the last day prior to the Purchase Date or on the
     Purchase Date if funds are immediately available by open of business, an
     amount equal to the Offer Amount to be held for payment in accordance with
     the provisions of this Section. If the Offer includes other Senior
     Subordinated Indebtedness, the deposit described in the preceding sentence
     may be made with any other paying agent pursuant to arrangements
     satisfactory to the Trustee. Upon the expiration of the period for which
     the Offer remains open (the "Offer Period"), the Company shall deliver to
     the Trustee for cancellation the Securities or portions thereof which have
     been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Company. The
     Trustee shall, on the Purchase Date, mail or deliver payment (or cause the
     delivery of payment) to each tendering Holder in the amount of the purchase
     price. In the event that the aggregate purchase price of the Securities
     delivered by the Company to the Trustee is less than the Offer Amount
     applicable to the Securities, the Trustee shall deliver the excess to the
     Company immediately after the expiration of the Offer Period for
     application in accordance with this Section 4.06.

         (3) Holders electing to have a Security purchased shall be required to
     surrender the Security, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the
     Company

                                                                              51

     at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior
     to the Purchase Date. Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election
     if the Trustee or the Company receives not later than one Business Day
     prior to the Purchase Date, a telex, facsimile transmission or letter
     setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security
     which was delivered for purchase by the Holder and a statement that such
     Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Security purchased. Holders
     whose Securities are purchased only in part shall be issued new Securities
     equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities
     surrendered.

         (4) At the time the Company delivers Securities to the Trustee which
     are to be accepted for purchase, the Company shall also deliver an
     Officers' Certificate stating that such Securities are to be accepted by
     the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section. A
     Security shall be deemed to have been accepted for purchase at the time the
     Trustee, directly or through an agent, mails or delivers payment therefor
     to the surrendering Holder.

         (d) The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the
requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws
or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to this
Section 4.06. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.06, the Company shall
comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be
deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.06 by virtue of its
compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

         SECTION 4.07. Limitation on Affiliate Transactions. (a) The Company
shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into or
permit to exist any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange
of any property, employee compensation arrangements or the rendering of any
service) with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (an
"Affiliate Transaction") unless:

         (1) the terms thereof are no less favorable to the Company or such
     Restricted Subsidiary, taken as a whole, than those that could be obtained
     at the time of the Affiliate Transaction in arm's-length dealings with a
     Person who is not an Affiliate;

         (2) if such Affiliate Transaction involves an amount in excess of $10.0
     million, the terms of the Affiliate Transaction are set forth in writing
     and a majority of the non-employee directors of the Company disinterested
     with respect to such Affiliate Transaction have determined in good faith
     that the criteria set forth in clause (1) are satisfied and have approved
     the relevant Affiliate Transaction as evidenced by a resolution of the
     Board of Directors of the Company; and

         (3) if such Affiliate Transaction involves an amount in excess of $25.0
     million, the Board of Directors of the Company shall also have received a
     written opinion from an Independent Qualified Party to the effect that such
     Affiliate

                                                                              52

     Transaction is fair, from a financial standpoint, to the Company and its
     Restricted Subsidiaries or is not less favorable to the Company and its
     Restricted Subsidiaries than could reasonably be expected to be obtained at
     the time in an arm's-length transaction with a Person who was not an
     Affiliate.

         (b) The provisions of Section 4.07(a) shall not prohibit:

         (1) any Investment (other than a Permitted Investment) or other
     Restricted Payment, in each case permitted to be made pursuant to Section
     4.04;

         (2) any payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise
     pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, employee benefit
     plans, stock options and stock ownership plans in the ordinary course of
     business or consistent with past practice;

         (3) loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business
     in accordance with the past practices of the Company or its Restricted
     Subsidiaries, but in any event not to exceed $5.0 million in the aggregate
     outstanding at any one time;

         (4) the payment of reasonable fees to and indemnity provided on behalf
     of directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company and its
     Restricted Subsidiaries who are not employees of the Company or its
     Restricted Subsidiaries;

         (5) any transaction with the Company, a Restricted Subsidiary or joint
     venture or similar entity which would constitute an Affiliate Transaction
     solely because the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity
     interest in or otherwise controls such Restricted Subsidiary, joint venture
     or similar entity;

         (6) payment to Cypress Group L.L.C. and any of its Affiliates of (x)
     monitoring or management, consulting, advisory or similar fees in an amount
     not to exceed $3.0 million in any fiscal year (plus reasonable
     out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection therewith) and (y) fees in
     respect of financial advisory, financing, underwriting or placement
     services or in respect of other investment banking activities with respect
     to any completed transaction, including any acquisitions or divestitures,
     which payments do not exceed 1.5% of the value of such completed
     transaction;

         (7) the issuance or sale of any Capital Stock (other than Disqualified
     Stock) of the Company and the granting and performance of registration
     rights;

         (8) pledges of Capital Stock of Unrestricted Subsidiaries for the
     benefit of lenders of Unrestricted Subsidiaries; and

         (9) any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date and described in the
     Offering Circular or any renewals or extensions of any such agreement (so
     long as

                                                                              53

     such renewals or extensions, taken as a whole, are not less favorable to
     the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries) and the transactions evidenced
     thereby.

         SECTION 4.08. Limitation on Line of Business. The Company shall not,
and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, to engage in any business other
than a Related Business.

         SECTION 4.09. Change of Control. (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control unless the Company has executed its right to redeem all of the
outstanding Securities pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Securities, each Holder
shall have the right to require that the Company purchase such Holder's
Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount
thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase
(subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to
receive interest on the relevant interest payment date), in accordance with the
terms contemplated in Section 4.09(b). In the event that at the time of such
Change of Control the terms of the Senior Indebtedness of the Company restrict
or prohibit the repurchase of Securities pursuant to this Section, then prior to
the mailing of the notice to Holders provided for in Section 4.09(b) below but
in any event within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall
(i) repay in full all such Senior Indebtedness or (ii) obtain the requisite
consent under the agreements governing such Senior Indebtedness to permit the
repurchase of the Securities as provided for in Section 4.09(b).

         (b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall
mail a notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee (the "Change of Control
Offer") stating:

         (1) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the
     right to require the Company to purchase such Holder's Securities that will
     remain outstanding after giving effect to any redemption of the Securities
     that the Company has elected to make pursuant to paragraph 5 of the
     Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal
     amount thereof on the date of purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest,
     if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record
     on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest
     payment date);

         (2) the circumstances and relevant facts regarding such Change of
     Control (including information with respect to pro forma historical income,
     cash flow and capitalization, in each case after giving effect to such
     Change of Control); (3) the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than
     30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed); and

         (4) the instructions, as determined by the Company, consistent with
     this Section, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities
     purchased.

         (c) Holders electing to have a Security purchased will be required to
surrender the Security, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Company
at the

                                                                              54

address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the
purchase date. Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the
Trustee or the Company receives not later than one Business Day prior to the
purchase date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth
the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security which was delivered
for purchase by the Holder and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his
election to have such Security purchased.

         (d) On the purchase date, all Securities purchased by the Company under
this Section shall be delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation,
and the Company shall pay the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, to the Holders entitled thereto.

         (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.09, the
Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a
Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the
manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth
in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company
and purchases all the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such
Change of Control Offer.

         (f) The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the
requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws
or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to this
Section. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
conflict with provisions of this Section, the Company shall comply with the
applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under this Section by virtue of its compliance with
such securities laws or regulations.

         SECTION 4.10. Future Guarantors. The Company shall cause each domestic
Restricted Subsidiary other than an SPE Subsidiary that Incurs any Indebtedness
(other than Indebtedness permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Section
4.03(b)(2), (7), (8), (9) or (13)) and each Foreign Subsidiary that enters into
a Guarantee of any Senior Indebtedness (other than a Foreign Subsidiary that
Guarantees Senior Indebtedness Incurred by another Foreign Subsidiary), to, in
each case, at the same time, execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guaranty
Agreement pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will Guarantee payment of
the Securities on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this
Indenture and the other obligations of the Company under this Indenture. In
addition, Parent will cause any of its Subsidiaries that hold any Capital Stock
of the Company to execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guarantee Agreement
pursuant to which such subsidiary will Guarantee payment on the Securities on
the same terms and conditions as those in this Indenture and the other
obligations under this Indenture.

         SECTION 4.11. Compliance Certificate. The Company shall deliver to the
Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company an
Officers' Certificate stating that in the course of the performance by the
signers of their duties as Officers of the Company they would normally have
knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default that
occurred during such period. If they

                                                                              55

do, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the
Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Company also
shall comply with TIA (Section) 314(a)(4).

         SECTION 4.12. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the
Trustee, the Company shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do
such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more
effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

                                    ARTICLE 5

                                Successor Company
                                -----------------

         SECTION 5.01. When Company May Merge or Transfer Assets. (a) The
Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or
lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, directly or indirectly,
all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, unless:

         (1) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the "Successor
     Company") shall be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the
     United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and
     the Successor Company (if not the Company) shall expressly assume, by an
     indenture supplemental thereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in
     form satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Company under
     the Securities and this Indenture;

         (2) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction (and
     treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Successor
     Company or any Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been
     Incurred by the Successor Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such
     transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

         (3) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction, the
     Successor Company would be able to Incur an additional $1.00 of

         (4) the Company shall have 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 any)
     comply with this Indenture;

provided, however, that clauses (2) and (3) will not be applicable to (A) a
Restricted Subsidiary consolidating with, merging into or transferring all or
part of its properties and assets to the Company (so long as no Capital Stock of
the Company or the Successor Company (if not the Company) is distributed to any
Person) or (B) the Company merging with an Affiliate of the Company solely for
the purpose and with the sole effect of reincorporating the Company in another
jurisdiction.

                                                                              56

         For purposes of this Section 5.01, the sale, lease, conveyance,
assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company, which
properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries,
would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the
Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company.

         The Successor Company shall be the successor to the Company and shall
succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of,
the Company under this Indenture, and the predecessor Company in the case of a
lease, shall be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and
interest on the Securities.

         (b) The Company shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to
consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease, in one
transaction or series of transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to
any Person unless:

         (1) except in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor (x) that has been
     disposed of in its entirety to another Person (other than to the Company or
     an Affiliate of the Company), whether through a merger, consolidation or
     sale of Capital Stock or assets or (y) that, as a result of the disposition
     of all or a portion of its Capital Stock, ceases to be a Subsidiary, the
     resulting, surviving or transferee Person (if not such Subsidiary) shall be
     a Person organized and existing under the laws of the jurisdiction under
     which such Subsidiary was organized or under the laws of the United States
     of America, or any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and such
     Person shall expressly assume, by a Guaranty Agreement, in a form
     satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of such Subsidiary, if
     any, under its Subsidiary Guaranty and this Indenture;

         (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction or transactions
     on a pro forma basis (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an
     obligation of the resulting, surviving or transferee Person as a result of
     such transaction as having been issued by such Person at the time of such
     transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

         (3) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an
     Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or
     transfer and such Guaranty Agreement, if any, complies with this Indenture.

         (c) So long as the Parent Guaranty is in effect, Parent shall not merge
with or into, or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of
transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to any Person unless:

         (1) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (if not Parent) shall
     be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the jurisdiction under
     which Parent was organized or under the laws of the United States of
     America, or any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and such Person
     shall expressly assume all the obligations of Parent, if any, under the
     Parent Guaranty;

                                                                              57

         (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction or transactions
     on a pro forma basis (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an
     obligation of the resulting, surviving or transferee Person as a result of
     such transaction as having been issued by such Person at the time of such
     transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

         (3) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an
     Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or
     transfer and such Guaranty Agreement, if any, complies with this Indenture.

                                   ARTICLE 6

                              Defaults and Remedies
                              ---------------------

         SECTION 6.01. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs if:

         (1) the Company defaults in any payment of interest on any Security
     when the same becomes due and payable, whether or not such payment shall be
     prohibited by Article 10, and such default continues for a period of 30
     days;

         (2) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of any
     Security when the same becomes due and payable at its Stated Maturity, upon
     optional redemption, upon required purchase, upon declaration of
     acceleration or otherwise, whether or not such payment shall be prohibited
     by Article 10;

         (3) the Company or Parent fail to comply with Section 5.01;

         (4) the Company fails to comply with Section 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05,
     4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, or 4.10 (other than a failure to purchase
     Securities when required under Section 4.06 or 4.09) and such failure
     continues for 30 days after the notice specified below;

         (5) the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor fails to comply with any of
     its agreements contained in this Indenture (other than those referred to in
     clause (1), (2), (3) or (4) above) and such failure continues for 60 days
     after the notice specified below;

         (6) Indebtedness of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (other
     than Indebtedness owing to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary) is not
     paid within any applicable grace period after final maturity or is
     accelerated by the holders thereof because of a default and the total
     amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $17.5 million
     (the "cross acceleration provision");

         (7) the Parent, the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to
     or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

               (A) commences a voluntary case;

                                                                              58

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

               (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any
         substantial part of its property; or

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

     or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to
insolvency;

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

               (A) is for relief against Parent (so long as the Parent Guaranty
         is in effect), the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an
         involuntary case;

               (B) appoints a Custodian of Parent (so long as the Parent
         Guaranty is in effect), the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or
         for any substantial part of its property; or

               (C) orders the winding up or liquidation of Parent (so long as
         the Parent Guaranty is in effect), the Company or any Significant
         Subsidiary;

     or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order or
     decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days;

         (9) any judgment or decree for the payment of money in excess of $17.5
     million (net of any amounts that are covered by insurance or bonded,
     treating any deductibles, self insurance or retention as not so covered) or
     its foreign currency equivalent at the time is entered against the Company
     or any Significant Subsidiary, remains outstanding for a period of 60
     consecutive days following the entry of such judgment or decree and is not
     discharged, waived or the execution thereof stayed; or

         (10) the Parent Guaranty or any Subsidiary Guaranty of any Significant
     Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance
     with the terms of the Parent Guaranty or such Subsidiary Guaranty) or
     Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations
     under the Parent Guaranty or its Subsidiary Guaranty.

         The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for
any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is
effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any
court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body.

         The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, United States Code, or any
similar Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term "Custodian"
means any

                                                                              59

receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any
Bankruptcy Law.

         A Default under clauses (4) or (5) is not an Event of Default until the
Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding
Securities notify the Company of the Default and the Company does not cure such
Default within the time specified after receipt of such notice. Such notice must
specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a
"Notice of Default".

         The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the
occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers' Certificate of
any Event of Default under clauses (6) or (10) and any event which with the
giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under
clause (4), (5) or (9), its status and what action the Company is taking or
proposes to take with respect thereto.

         SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event
of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) with respect to the Company)
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders
of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Company
and the Trustee, may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on
all the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such
principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately, provided, however,
that so long as any Designated Senior Indebtedness remains outstanding, no such
acceleration shall be effective until the earlier of (1) five Business Days
after the giving of written notice to the Company and the Representative of the
Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company and (2) the day on which any
Designated Senior Indebtedness is accelerated. If an Event of Default specified
in Section 6.01(7) or (8) with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing,
the principal of and interest on all the Securities shall ipso facto become and
be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part
of the Trustee or any Securityholders. The Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Securities by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration
and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or
decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except
nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of
acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair
any right consequent thereto.

         SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment
of principal of or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of
any provision of the Securities or this Indenture.

         The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any
of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or
omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder in exercising any right or remedy
accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or
constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is
exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.

                                                                              60

         SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Trustee may waive an
existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the
principal of or interest on a Security (b) a Default arising from the failure to
redeem or purchase any Security when required pursuant to this Indenture or (c)
a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended
without the consent of each Securityholder affected. When a Default is waived,
it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other
Default or impair any consequent right.

         SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities may direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may
refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or,
subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to
the rights of other Securityholders or would involve the Trustee in personal
liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed
proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to
taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification by
Holders satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and
expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

         SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the right to
receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no
Securityholder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the
Securities unless:

         (1) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice stating that an
     Event of Default is continuing;

         (2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities
     make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

         (3) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee reasonable security or
     indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

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

         (5) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities do
     not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during such
     60-day period.

         A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of
another Securityholder or to obtain a preference or priority over another
Securityholder. In the event that the Definitive Securities are not issued to
any beneficial owner promptly after the Registrar has received a request from
the Holder of a Global Security to issue such Definitive Securities to such
beneficial owner of its nominee, the Company expressly agrees and acknowledges,
with respect to the right of any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to this
Indenture, the right of such beneficial holder of Securities to

                                                                              61

pursue such remedy with respect to the portion of the Global Security that
represents such beneficial holder's Securities as if such Definitive Securities
had been issued.

         SECTION 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of
principal of and interest on the Securities held by such Holder, on or after the
respective due dates expressed in the Securities, or to bring suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be
impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

         SECTION 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default
specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may
recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the
Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any
unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section
7.07.

         SECTION 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file
such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Securityholders allowed in any judicial
proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property and to
participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of
creditors appointed in such matter and, unless prohibited by law or applicable
regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in
bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in
any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make
payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the
making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any
amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due
the Trustee under Section 7.07.

         SECTION 6.10. Priorities for Funds Collected by Trustee. If the Trustee
collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the
money or property in the following order:

         FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;

         SECOND: to holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company and, if such
     money or property has been collected from a Subsidiary Guarantor, to
     holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case
     to the extent required by Article 10 and 12;

         THIRD: to Securityholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities
     for principal and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any
     kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for
     principal and interest, respectively; and

         FOURTH: to the Company.

                                                                              62

         The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to
Securityholders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before such record
date, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder and the Company a notice
that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

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

         SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company (to the
extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in
any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or
extension law 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 shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution
of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the
execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

                                    ARTICLE 7

                                     Trustee
                                     -------

         SECTION 7.01. Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers
vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in
their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances
in the conduct of such Person's own affairs.

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

         (1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties
     as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or
     obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

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

                                                                              63

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

         (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this
     Section;

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

         (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes
     or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by
     it pursuant to Section 6.05. (d) Every provision of this Indenture that in
     any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of
     this Section.

         (e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received
by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company.

         (f) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law.

         (g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend
or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance
of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such
funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it.

         (h) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be
subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the TIA.

         SECTION 7.02. Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may rely on any
document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by
the proper person. The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond,
debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but
the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation
into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall
determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to
examine the books, records and premises of the Company personally or by agent or
attorney.

         (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an
Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable
for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the
Officers' Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

                                                                              64

         (c) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for
the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

         (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to
take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or
powers; provided, however, that the Trustee's conduct does not constitute
willful misconduct or negligence.

         (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of
counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the
Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from
liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in
good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

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

         (g) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given
to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are
extended to, and shall be enforceable by the Trustee in each of its capacities
hereunder.

         SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities
and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights
it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar
or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must
comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

         SECTION 7.04. Trustee's Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be
responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of
this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company's
use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any
statement of the Company in the Indenture or in any document issued in
connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the
Trustee's certificate of authentication.

         SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs, is continuing
and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder
notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a
Default in the payment of principal of or interest on any Security (including
payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such Security, if
any), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its
Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not
opposed to the interests of the Securityholders.

         SECTION 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. As promptly as practicable
after each November 30th beginning with the November 30th following the date of
this Indenture, and in any event prior to December 30th in each year, the
Trustee

                                                                              65

shall mail to each Securityholder a brief report dated as of such date that
complies with TIA (Section) 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA
(Section) 313(b).

         A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders
shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the
Securities are listed. The Company agrees to notify promptly the Trustee
whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting
thereof.

         SECTION 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company, Parent and the
Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree that they shall pay to the
Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. The
Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a
trustee of an express trust. The Company, Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantors,
jointly and severally, agree that they shall reimburse the Trustee upon request
for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including
costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such
expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The
Company, Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall
indemnify the Trustee for, and hold the Trustee harmless against, any and all
loss, damage, claims, liability or expense (including attorneys' fees) incurred
by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the
performance of its duties hereunder (including the costs and expenses of
enforcing this Indenture against the Company, Parent or any of the Subsidiary
Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any claim
whether asserted by any Holder, the Company, Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor,
or liability in connective with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any
of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee shall notify the Company
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to
so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations
hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate
counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The
Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability
or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee's own willful misconduct,
negligence or bad faith.

         To secure the Company's, Parent's and the Subsidiary Guarantors'
payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the
Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than
money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular
Securities.

         The Company's, Parent's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' payment
obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the discharge of this
Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default
specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) with respect to the Company, the expenses
are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

         SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any
time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the

                                                                              66

Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a
successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

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

         (2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

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

         (4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

         If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Company or by the Holders of
a majority in principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do not
reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to
herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee.

         A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the
successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee
under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its
succession to Securityholders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the Lien
provided for in Section 7.07.

         If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of
10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

         If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Securityholder
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee
and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

         Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this
Section, the Company's obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the
benefit of the retiring Trustee.

         SECTION 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates
with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its
corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking
association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any
further act shall be the successor Trustee.

         In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion
or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this
Indenture any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered,
any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of
any predecessor trustee, and deliver

                                                                              67

such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities
shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate
such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name
of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall
have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture
provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

         SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all
times satisfy the requirements of TIA (Section) 310(a). The Trustee shall have a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most
recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA
(Section) 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the
operation of TIA (Section) 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which
other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other
securities of the Company are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion
set forth in TIA (Section) 310(b)(1) are met.

         SECTION 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. The
Trustee shall comply with TIA (Section) 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA (Section) 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been
removed shall be subject to TIA (Section) 311(a) to the extent indicated.

                                   ARTICLE 8

                       Discharge of Indenture; Defeasance
                       ----------------------------------

         SECTION 8.01. Discharge of Liability on Securities; Defeasance. (a)
When (1) the Company delivers to the Trustee all outstanding Securities (other
than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07) for cancellation or (2) all
outstanding Securities have become due and payable, whether at maturity or on a
redemption date as a result of the mailing of a notice of redemption pursuant to
Article 3 hereof and the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee funds
sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all outstanding Securities,
including interest thereon to maturity or such redemption date (other than
Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07), and if in either case the Company
pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then this Indenture shall,
subject to Section 8.01(c), cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall
acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on demand of the
Company accompanied by an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at
the cost and expense of the Company.

         (b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Company at any time may
terminate (1) all its obligations under the Securities and this Indenture
("legal defeasance option") or (2) its obligations under Sections 4.02, 4.03,
4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10 and 4.11 and the operation of Sections
6.01(4), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8), 6.01(9) and 6.01(10) (but, in the case of
Sections 6.01(7) and (8), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and
Parent) and the limitations contained in Section 5.01(a)(3) ("covenant
defeasance option"). The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option
notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

                                                                              68

         If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the
Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect
thereto. If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the
Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in
Sections 6.01(4), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8), 6.01(9) and 6.01(10) (but, in the
case of Sections 6.01(7) and (8), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries
and Parent) or because of the failure of the Company to comply with Section
5.01(a)(3). If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant
defeasance option, Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor, if any, shall be
released from all its obligations with respect to the Parent Guaranty or its
Subsidiary Guaranty, as applicable.

         Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request
of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those
obligations that the Company terminates.

         (c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Company's
obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 7.07 and 7.08 and in
this Article 8 shall survive until the Securities have been paid in full.
Thereafter, the Company's obligations in Sections 7.07, 8.04 and 8.05 shall
survive.

         SECTION 8.02. Conditions to Defeasance. The Company may exercise its
legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

         (1) the Company irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money or
     U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal of and interest on
     the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

         (2) the Company delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally
     recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that
     the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on
     the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without
     investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be
     sufficient to pay principal and interest when due on all the Securities to
     maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

         (3) 123 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 123-day
     period no Default specified in Sections 6.01(7) or (8) with respect to the
     Company occurs which is continuing at the end of the period;

         (4) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other agreement
     binding on the Company and is not prohibited by Article 10;

         (5) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the
     effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not constitute, or is
     qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company
     Act of 1940;

         (6) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have
     delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company
     has

                                                                              69

     received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service
     a ruling, or (B) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change
     in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect
     that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the
     Securityholders 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;

         (7) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall
     have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
     Securityholders 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; and

         (8) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an
     Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the
     defeasance and discharge of the Securities as contemplated by this Article
     8 have been complied with.

         Before or after a deposit, the Company may make arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date in
accordance with Article 3.

         SECTION 8.03. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in
trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this
Article 8. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government
Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to
the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities. Money and securities
so held in trust are not subject to Articles 10 or 12.

         SECTION 8.04. Repayment to Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent
shall promptly turn over to the Company upon request any excess money or
securities held by them at any time.

         Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the
Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for
the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and,
thereafter, Securityholders entitled to the money must look to the Company for
payment as general creditors.

         SECTION 8.05. Indemnity for Government Obligations. The Company shall
pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed
on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal
and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.

                                                                              70

         SECTION 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable
to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this
Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company's, Parent's and each
Subsidiary Guarantor's obligations under this Indenture, the Parent Guaranty
each Subsidiary Guaranty and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as
though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the
Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government
Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided, however, that, if the
Company has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Securities
because of 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 or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                   ARTICLE 9

                                   Amendments
                                   ----------

         SECTION 9.01. Without Consent of Holders. The Company, Parent, the
Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities
without notice to or consent of any Securityholder:

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

         (2) to comply with Article 5;

         (3) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place
     of certificated Securities; provided, however, that the uncertificated
     Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of
     the Code or in a manner such that the uncertificated Securities are
     described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code;

         (4) to make any change in Articles 10 or 12 that would limit or
     terminate the benefits available to any holder of Senior Indebtedness of
     the Company or of a Subsidiary Guarantor (or Representatives therefor)
     under Article 10 or 12;

         (5) to add Guarantees with respect to the Securities, including any
     Subsidiary Guaranties, or to secure the Securities;

         (6) to add to the covenants of the Company, Parent or any Subsidiary
     Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power
     herein conferred upon the Company, Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor;

         (7) to comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection with
     qualifying, or maintaining the qualification of, this Indenture under the
     TIA;

                                                                              71

         (8) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any
     Securityholder; or

         (9) to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating
     to the transfer and legending of Securities; provided, however, that (a)
     compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Securities
     being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any other
     applicable securities law and (b) such amendment does not materially and
     adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Securities.

         An amendment under this Section may not make any change that adversely
affects the rights under Article 10 or 12 of any holder of Senior Indebtedness
of the Company or of a Subsidiary Guarantor then outstanding unless the holders
of such Senior Indebtedness (or their Representative) consent to such change.

         After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company
shall mail to Securityholders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The
failure to give such notice to all Securityholders, or any defect therein, shall
not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

         SECTION 9.02. With Consent of Holders. The Company, Parent, the
Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities
with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal
amount of the Securities then outstanding (including consents obtained in
connection with a tender offer or exchange for the Securities) and any past
default or compliance with any provisions may also be waived with the consent of
the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then
outstanding other than as provided by Section 6.04. However, without the consent
of each Securityholder affected thereby, an amendment or waiver may not (with
respect to any Security held by a non-consenting Holder):

         (1) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an
     amendment;

         (2) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on
     any Security;

         (3) reduce the principal or change the Stated Maturity of any Security;

         (4) change the provisions applicable to the redemption of any Security
     contained in Article 3 hereto or paragraph 5 of the Securities;

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

         (6) make any changes in the ranking or priority of any Security that
     would adversely affect the Securityholders;

                                                                              72

         (7) make any change in Section 6.04 or 6.07 or the second sentence of
     this Section; or

         (8) make any change in, or release other than in accordance with this
     Indenture, any Subsidiary Guaranty of a Significant Subsidiary that would
     adversely affect the Securityholders.

         It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this
Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall
be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

         An amendment under this Section may not make any change that adversely
affects the rights under Article 10 or 12 of any holder of Senior Indebtedness
of the Company or of a Subsidiary Guarantor then outstanding unless the holders
of such Senior Indebtedness (or any group or representative thereof authorized
to give a consent) consent to such change.

         After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company
shall mail to Securityholders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The
failure to give such notice to all Securityholders, or any defect therein, shall
not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

         SECTION 9.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to
this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

         SECTION 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent
to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and
every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that
evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security, even if notation of
the consent or waiver is not made on the Security. However, any such Holder or
subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder's Security
or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation
before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. After an amendment or
waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder. An amendment or
waiver becomes effective upon the execution of such amendment or waiver by the
Trustee.

         The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for
the purpose of determining the Securityholders entitled to give their consent or
take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken
pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the
immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Securityholders at such
record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be
entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to
take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after
such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120
days after such record date.

         SECTION 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Securities. If an amendment
changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the
Security to

                                                                              73

deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the
Security regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively,
if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the
Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that
reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue
a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

         SECTION 9.06. Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any
amendment authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment does not
adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.
If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and
to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying
upon, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such
amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment
is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, Parent and the
Subsidiary Guarantors, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms,
subject to customary exceptions and complies with the provisions hereof
(including Section 9.03).

         SECTION 9.07. Payment for Consent. Neither the Company nor any
Affiliate of the Company shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid
any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder
for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms
or provisions of this Indenture or the Securities unless such consideration is
offered to all Holders and is paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or
agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to
such consent, waiver or agreement.

                                   ARTICLE 10

                                  Subordination
                                  -------------

         SECTION 10.01. Agreement To Subordinate. The Company agrees, and each
Securityholder by accepting a Security agrees, that the Indebtedness evidenced
by the Securities is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the
manner provided in this Article 10, to the prior payment of all Senior
Indebtedness of the Company and that the subordination is for the benefit of and
enforceable by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. The Securities shall in
all respects rank pari passu with all other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of
the Company and only Indebtedness of the Company which is Senior Indebtedness of
the Company shall rank senior to the Securities in accordance with the
provisions set forth herein. All provisions of this Article 10 shall be subject
to Section 10.12.

         SECTION 10.02. Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. Upon any payment
or distribution of the assets of the Company to creditors upon a total or
partial liquidation or a total or partial dissolution of the Company or in a
bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding
relating to the Company or its property:

                                                                              74

         (1) holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall be entitled to
     receive payment in full of such Senior Indebtedness before Securityholders
     shall be entitled to receive any payment of principal of or interest on the
     Securities; and

         (2) until such Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, any payment or
     distribution to which Securityholders would be entitled but for this
     Article 10 shall be made to holders of such Senior Indebtedness as their
     interests may appear, except that Securityholders may receive shares of
     stock and any debt securities that are subordinated to such Senior
     Indebtedness to at least the same extent as the Securities.

         SECTION 10.03. Default on Senior Indebtedness of the Company. The
Company shall not pay the principal of or interest on the Securities or make any
deposit pursuant to Section 8.01 and may not purchase, redeem or otherwise
retire any Securities (collectively, "pay the Securities") if either of the
following (a "Payment Default") occurs (a) any Obligation on any Designated
Senior Indebtedness of the Company is not paid in full in cash when due; or (b)
any other default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company occurs and
the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance
with its terms unless, in either case, the Payment Default has been cured or
waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or such Designated Senior
Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash; provided, however, that the Company
shall be entitled to pay the Securities without regard to the foregoing if the
Company and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the
Representatives of all Designated Senior Indebtedness with respect to which the
Payment Default has occurred and is continuing. During the continuance of any
default (other than a Payment Default) with respect to any Designated Senior
Indebtedness of the Company pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be
accelerated immediately without further notice (except such notice as may be
required to effect such acceleration) or the expiration of any applicable grace
periods, the Company shall not pay the Securities for a period (a "Payment
Blockage Period") commencing upon the receipt by the Trustee of (with a copy to
the Company) written notice (a "Blockage Notice") of such default from the
Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness specifying an election to
effect a Payment Blockage Period and ending 179 days thereafter. The Payment
Blockage Period shall end earlier if such Payment Blockage Period is terminated
(1) by written notice to the Trustee and the Company from the Person or Persons
who gave such Blockage Notice; (2) because the default giving rise to such
Blockage Notice is cured, waived or otherwise no longer continuing; or (3)
because such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been discharged or repaid in
full in cash.

         Notwithstanding the provisions described in the immediately preceding
two sentences (but subject to the provisions contained in the first sentence of
this Section), unless the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness or the
Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have accelerated the
maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness, the Company shall be entitled
to resume payments on the Securities after termination of such Payment Blockage
Period. The Securities shall not be subject to more than one Payment Blockage
Period in any consecutive 360-day period, irrespective of the number of defaults
with respect to Designated Senior

                                                                              75

Indebtedness of the Company during such period provided, however, that if any
Blockage Notice within such 360 day period is given by or on behalf of any
holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company (other than the Bank
Indebtedness), a Representative of the holders of the Bank Indebtedness shall be
entitled to give another Blockage Notice within such period; provided further,
however, that in no event shall the total number of days during which any
Payment Blockage Period or Periods is in effect exceed 179 days in the aggregate
during any 360 consecutive day period and there shall be 181 days during any
consecutive 360 day period during which no Payment Blockage Period is in effect.

         For purposes of this Section, no default or event of default which
existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any Payment
Blockage Period with respect to the Designated Senior Indebtedness of the
Company initiating such Payment Blockage Period shall be, or be made, the basis
of the commencement of a subsequent Payment Blockage Period by the
Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness whether or not within a
period of 360 consecutive days unless such default or event of default shall
have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days.

         SECTION 10.04. Acceleration of Payment of Securities. If payment of the
Securities is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company or the
Trustee shall promptly notify the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness
of the Company (or their Representatives) of the acceleration. If any Designated
Senior Indebtedness is outstanding, the Company shall not pay the Securities
until five Business Days after the Representatives of all the issues of
Designated Senior Indebtedness receive notice of such acceleration and,
thereafter, shall be entitled to pay the Securities only if this Article 10
otherwise permits payment at that time.

         SECTION 10.05. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. If a distribution
is made to Securityholders that because of this Article 10 should not have been
made to them, the Securityholders who receive the distribution shall hold it in
trust for holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company and pay it over to them
as their interests may appear.

         SECTION 10.06. Subrogation. After all Senior Indebtedness of the
Company is paid in full and until the Securities are paid in full,
Securityholders shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such Senior
Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Indebtedness. A
distribution made under this Article 10 to holders of such Senior Indebtedness
which otherwise would have been made to Securityholders is not, as between the
Company and Securityholders, a payment by the Company on such Senior
Indebtedness.

         SECTION 10.07. Relative Rights. This Article 10 defines the relative
rights of Securityholders and holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company.
Nothing in this Indenture shall:

                                                                              76

         (1) impair, as between the Company and Securityholders, the obligation
     of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of
     and interest on the Securities in accordance with their terms; or

         (2) prevent the Trustee or any Securityholder from exercising its
     available remedies upon a Default, subject to the rights of holders of
     Senior Indebtedness of the Company to receive distributions otherwise
     payable to Securityholders.

         SECTION 10.08. Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company. No right
of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Company to enforce the subordination
of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be impaired by any act or
failure to act by the Company or by its failure to comply with this Indenture.

         SECTION 10.09. Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent. Notwithstanding
Section 10.03, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall continue to make payments on
the Securities and shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of facts
that under this Article 10 would prohibit the making of any such payments
unless, not less than two Business Days prior to the date of such payment, a
Trust Officer of the Trustee receives notice satisfactory to it that such
payments are prohibited by this Article 10. The Company, the Registrar or
co-registrar, the Paying Agent, a Representative or a holder of Senior
Indebtedness of the Company shall be entitled to give the notice; provided,
however, that, if an issue of Senior Indebtedness of the Company has a
Representative, only the Representative shall be entitled to give the notice.

         The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity shall be entitled
to hold Senior Indebtedness of the Company with the same rights it would have if
it were not Trustee. The Registrar and co-registrar and the Paying Agent shall
be entitled to do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall be entitled to
all the rights set forth in this Article 10 with respect to any Senior
Indebtedness of the Company which may at any time be held by it, to the same
extent as any other holder of such Senior Indebtedness; and nothing in Article 7
shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this
Article 10 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or
pursuant to Section 7.07.

         SECTION 10.10. Distribution or Notice to Representative. Whenever any
Person is to make a distribution or give a notice to holders of Senior
Indebtedness of the Company, such Person shall be entitled to make such
distribution or give such notice to their Representative (if any).

         SECTION 10.11. Article 10 Not To Prevent Events of Default or Limit
Right To Accelerate. The failure to make a payment pursuant to the Securities by
reason of any provision in this Article 10 shall not be construed as preventing
the occurrence of a Default. Nothing in this Article 10 shall have any effect on
the right of the Securityholders or the Trustee to accelerate the maturity of
the Securities.

         SECTION 10.12. Trust Moneys Not Subordinated. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, payments from money or the proceeds of U.S.

                                                                              77

Government Obligations held in trust under Article 8 by the Trustee for the
payment of principal of and interest on the Securities shall not be subordinated
to the prior payment of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company or subject to the
restrictions set forth in this Article 10, and none of the Securityholders shall
be obligated to pay over any such amount to the Company or any holder of Senior
Indebtedness of the Company or any other creditor of the Company.

         SECTION 10.13. Trustee Entitled To Rely. Upon any payment or
distribution pursuant to this Article 10, the Trustee and the Securityholders
shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent
jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 10.02
are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other
Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to the
Securityholders or (c) upon the Representatives of Senior Indebtedness of the
Company for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in
such payment or distribution, the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and other
Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount
or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or
to this Article 10. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith,
that evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of
Senior Indebtedness of the Company to participate in any payment or distribution
pursuant to this Article 10, the Trustee shall be entitled to request such
Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to
the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which
such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and other
facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 10, and, if such
evidence is not furnished, the Trustee shall be entitled to defer any payment to
such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to
receive such payment. The provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02 shall be
applicable to all actions or omissions of actions by the Trustee pursuant to
this Article 10.

         SECTION 10.14. Trustee To Effectuate Subordination. Each Securityholder
by accepting a Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take
such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the
subordination between the Securityholders and the holders of Senior Indebtedness
of the Company as provided in this Article 10 and appoints the Trustee as
attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

         SECTION 10.15. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness
of the Company. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the
holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company and shall not be liable to any
such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or distribute to Securityholders or
the Company or any other Person, money or assets to which any holders of Senior
Indebtedness of the Company shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 10 or
otherwise.

         SECTION 10.16. Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the
Company on Subordination Provisions. Each Securityholder by accepting a Security
acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are
intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Senior

                                                                              78

Indebtedness of the Company, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or
acquired before or after the issuance of the Securities, to acquire and continue
to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of
such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such
subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing
to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

         Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph,
the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company may, at any time and from time
to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders, without
incurring responsibility to the Trustee or the Holders and without impairing or
releasing the subordination provided in this Article 10 or the obligations
hereunder of the Holders to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the
Company, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or
terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior
Indebtedness of the Company, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner
Senior Indebtedness of the Company, or any instrument evidencing the same or any
agreement under which Senior Indebtedness of the Company is outstanding; (ii)
sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged
or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness of the Company; (iii) release any
Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of Senior Indebtedness
of the Company; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against
the Company and any other Person.

                                   ARTICLE 11

                                   Guaranties
                                   ----------

         SECTION 11.01. Guaranties. Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, to each
Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (a) the full and
punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Securities when due,
whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other
monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities and
(b) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all
other obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities (all
the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the "Guaranteed
Obligations"). Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the
Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without
notice or further assent from Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor and that
Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor will remain bound under this Article 11
notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.

         Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of,
payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and
also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Parent and each Subsidiary
Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Guaranteed
Obligations. The obligations of Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder
shall not be affected by (1) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert
any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any
other Person (including Parent or any Subsidiary

                                                                              79

Guarantor) under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or
otherwise; (2) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (3) any rescission,
waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this
Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (4) the release of any
security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any
of them; (5) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or
remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (6) except
as set forth in Section 11.06, any change in the ownership of a Subsidiary
Guarantor.

         Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Parent
Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty herein constitutes a guarantee of payment,
performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and
waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee
to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

         The Parent Guaranty and each Subsidiary Guaranty is, to the extent and
in the manner set forth in Article 12, subordinated and subject in right of
payment to the prior payment in full of the principal of and premium, if any,
and interest on all Senior Indebtedness of Parent or the Subsidiary Guarantor
giving the Parent Guaranty or such Subsidiary Guaranty and the Parent Guaranty
and each Subsidiary Guaranty is made subject to such provisions of this
Indenture.

         Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01(b), 11.02 and 11.06, the
obligations of Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be
subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason,
including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and
shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or
termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Parent and each Subsidiary
Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by
the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to
enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement,
by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay,
willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act
or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in
any manner or to any extent vary the risk of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor
or would otherwise operate as a discharge of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor
as a matter of law or equity.

         Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee
herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if
at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any
Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the
Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

         In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other
right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against Parent or
any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to
pay the principal of or

                                                                              80

interest on any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at
maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply
with any other Obligation, Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises
to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or
cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the
sum of (A) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (B) accrued and
unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not
prohibited by law) and (C) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of the
Company to the Holders and the Trustee.

         Each of Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that it shall not
be entitled to any right of subrogation in respect of any Obligations guaranteed
hereby until payment in full of all Obligations and all obligations to which the
Obligations are subordinated as provided in Article 12. Each of Parent and the
Subsidiary Guarantors further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and
the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the
Guaranteed Obligations hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for
the purposes of Parent's Parent Guaranty or such Subsidiary Guarantor's
Subsidiary Guaranty herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of
acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 6, such
Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become
due and payable by Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes of this
Section.

         Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all
costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by the
Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section.

         SECTION 11.02. Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this
Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the
Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by Parent or any Subsidiary
Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed
without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to Parent or such Subsidiary
Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or
fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

         SECTION 11.03. Successors and Assigns. This Article 11 shall be binding
upon Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor and its successors and assigns and
shall enure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the
Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder
or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this
Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in
such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this
Indenture.

         SECTION 11.04. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of
either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege
under this Article 11 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or
partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right,
power or privilege. The rights,

                                                                              81

remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified
are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which
either may have under this Article 11 at law, in equity, by statute or
otherwise.

         SECTION 11.05. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of
any provision of this Article 11, nor the consent to any departure by Parent or
any Subsidiary Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the
same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. No notice to or demand on Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor in any
case shall entitle Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor to any other or further
notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

         SECTION 11.06. Release of Subsidiary Guarantor. A Subsidiary Guarantor
will be released from its obligations under this Article 11 (other than any
obligation that may have arisen under Section 11.07)

         (1) upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of
     consolidation or merger) of a Subsidiary Guarantor, including the sale or
     disposition of Capital Stock of a Subsidiary Guarantor, following which
     such Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary,

         (2) upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets
     of such Subsidiary Guarantor,

         (3) upon the designation of such Subsidiary Guarantor as an
     Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Indenture,

         (4) at such time as such Subsidiary Guarantor does not have any
     Indebtedness outstanding that would have required such Subsidiary Guarantor
     to enter into a Guaranty Agreement pursuant to Section 4.10 and the Company
     provides an Officers' Certificate to the Trustee certifying that no such
     Indebtedness is outstanding and that the Company elects to have such
     Subsidiary Guarantor released from this Article 11,

         (5) upon defeasance of the Securities pursuant to Article 8, or

         (6) upon the full satisfaction of the Company's obligations under this
     Indenture;

     provided, however, that in the case of clauses (1) and (2) above, (i) such
     sale or other disposition is made to a Person other than the Company or a
     Subsidiary of the Company, (ii) such sale or disposition is otherwise
     permitted by this Indenture and (iii) the Company provides an Officers'
     Certificate to the Trustee to the effect that the Company will comply with
     its obligations under Section 4.06.

At the request of the Company, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an
appropriate instrument evidencing such release.

                                                                              82

         SECTION 11.07. Contribution. Parent and each Subsidiary Guarantor that
makes a payment under its Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty shall be
entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture
to a contribution from Parent and each other Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount
equal to Parent's and such other Subsidiary Guarantor's pro rata portion of such
payment based on the respective net assets of Parent and all the Subsidiary
Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

         SECTION 11.08. Release of Parent. Parent will be released from its
obligations under this Article 11 (other than any obligation that may have
arisen under Section 11.07)

         (1) at such time as Parent is no longer Guaranteeing any Indebtedness
     of the Company (other than the Securities and the Obligations under this
     Indenture) or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries and Parent provides an
     Officers' Certificate to the Trustee certifying that no such Guarantees
     exist or are contemplated at such time; provided, however, that if Parent
     thereafter enters into any Guarantee of any Indebtedness of the Company of
     any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, Parent shall execute and deliver to the
     Trustee, at the same time such other Guarantee is provided, a Guaranty
     Agreement pursuant to which Parent will Guarantee payment on the Securities
     on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture and
     the Obligations under this Indenture,

         (2) upon defeasance of the Securities pursuant to Article 8, or (3)
     upon the full satisfaction of the Company's obligations under this
     Indenture.

At the request of the Company, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an
appropriate instrument evidencing such release.

                                   ARTICLE 12

                           Subordination of Guaranties
                           ---------------------------

         SECTION 12.01. Agreement To Subordinate. Parent and each Subsidiary
Guarantor agree, and each Securityholder by accepting a Security agrees, that
the Indebtedness evidenced by Parent's Parent Guaranty and such Subsidiary
Guarantor's Subsidiary Guaranty is subordinated in right of payment, to the
extent and in the manner provided in this Article 12, to the prior payment of
all Senior Indebtedness of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor and that the
subordination is for the benefit of and enforceable by the holders of such
Senior Indebtedness. The Obligations of Parent and any Subsidiary Guarantor
shall in all respects rank pari passu with all other Senior Subordinated
Indebtedness of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor and only Senior Indebtedness
of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor (including Parent's Parent Guaranty or
such Subsidiary Guarantor's Guaranty of Senior Indebtedness of the Company)
shall

                                                                              83

rank senior to the Obligations of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor in
accordance with the provisions set forth herein.

         SECTION 12.02. Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. Upon any payment
or distribution of the assets of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor to creditors
upon a total or partial liquidation or a total or partial dissolution of Parent
or such Subsidiary Guarantor or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency,
receivership or similar proceeding relating to Parent or such Subsidiary
Guarantor or its property:

         (1) holders of Senior Indebtedness of Parent or such Subsidiary
     Guarantor shall be entitled to receive payment in full of such Senior
     Indebtedness before Securityholders shall be entitled to receive any
     payment pursuant to the Parent Guaranty of Parent or the Subsidiary
     Guaranty of such Subsidiary Guarantor; and

         (2) until the Senior Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor
     is paid in full, any payment or distribution to which Securityholders would
     be entitled but for this Article 12 shall be made to holders of such Senior
     Indebtedness as their interests may appear, except that Securityholders may
     receive shares of stock and any debt securities of Parent or such
     Subsidiary Guarantor that are subordinated to such Senior Indebtedness to
     at least the same extent as the Parent Guaranty or such Subsidiary
     Guaranty.

         SECTION 12.03. Default on Senior Indebtedness of Parent or Subsidiary
Guarantor. Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall make any payment on
its Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty, as the case may be, or purchase,
redeem or otherwise retire or defease any Securities or other Obligations
(collectively, "pay its Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty") if either of
the following (a "Payment Default") occurs (a) any Obligations on any Designated
Senior Indebtedness of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor is not paid in full
in cash when due; or (b) any other default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of
Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor occurs and the maturity of such Designated
Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its terms unless, in
either case, the Payment Default has been cured or waived and any such
acceleration has been rescinded or such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been
paid in full in cash; provided, however, that Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor
shall be entitled to pay its Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty without
regard to the foregoing if Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor and the Trustee
receive written notice approving such payment from the Representatives of all
Designated Senior Indebtedness with respect to which the Payment Default has
occurred and is continuing.

         During the continuance of any default (other than a Payment Default)
with respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness of Parent or such Subsidiary
Guarantor pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated immediately
without further notice (except such notice as may be required to effect such
acceleration) or the expiration of any applicable grace periods, Parent or such
Subsidiary Guarantor shall not pay its Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty
for a period (a "Payment Blockage Period") commencing upon the receipt by the
Trustee of (with a copy to Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor) written notice
(a "Blockage Notice") of such default from the

                                                                              84

Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness specifying an election to
effect a Payment Blockage Period and ending 179 days thereafter. The Payment
Blockage Period shall end earlier if such Payment Blockage Period is terminated
(1) by written notice to the Trustee and Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor
from the Person or Persons who gave such Blockage Notice; (2) because the
default giving rise to such Blockage Notice is cured, waived or otherwise no
longer continuing; or (3) because such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been
discharged or repaid in full in cash.

         Notwithstanding the provisions described in the immediately preceding
two sentences (but subject to the provisions contained in the first sentence of
this Section), unless the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness giving
such Payment Notice or the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness
shall have accelerated the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness,
Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to resume payments pursuant
to its Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty after termination of such Payment
Blockage Period. Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subject to
more than one Payment Blockage Period in any consecutive 360-day period,
irrespective of the number of defaults with respect to Designated Senior
Indebtedness of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor during such period;
provided, however, that if any Blockage Notice within such 360 day period is
given by or on behalf of any holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of Parent
or such Subsidiary Guarantor (other than the Bank Indebtedness), a
Representative of holders of the Bank Indebtedness shall be entitled to give
another Blockage Notice within such period; provided further, however, that in
no event shall the total number of days during which any Payment Blockage Period
of Periods is in effect exceed 179 days in the aggregate during any 360
consecutive day period and there shall be 181 days during any consecutive 360
day period during which no Payment Blockage Period is in effect during such
period.

         For purposes of this Section, no default or event of default which
existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any Payment
Blockage Period with respect to the Designated Senior Indebtedness of Parent or
such Subsidiary Guarantor initiating such Payment Blockage Period shall be, or
be made, the basis of the commencement of a subsequent Payment Blockage Period
by the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness, whether or not
within a period of 360 consecutive days, unless such default or event of default
shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive
days.

         SECTION 12.04. Demand for Payment. If a demand for payment is made on a
Parent or Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Article 11, the Trustee shall
promptly notify the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of Parent or
such Subsidiary Guarantor (or their Representatives) of such demand.

         SECTION 12.05. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. If a distribution
is made to Securityholders that because of this Article 12 should not have been
made to them, the Securityholders who receive the distribution shall hold it in
trust for holders of Senior Indebtedness of Parent or the applicable Subsidiary
Guarantor and pay it over to them or their Representatives as their interests
may appear.

                                                                              85

         SECTION 12.06. Subrogation. After all Senior Indebtedness of Parent or
a Subsidiary Guarantor is paid in full and until the Securities are paid in
full, Securityholders shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such
Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to Senior Indebtedness
of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor. A distribution made under this Article
12 to holders of such Senior Indebtedness which otherwise would have been made
to Securityholders is not, as between Parent or the relevant Subsidiary
Guarantor and Securityholders, a payment by Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor
on such Senior Indebtedness.

         SECTION 12.07. Relative Rights. This Article 12 defines the relative
rights of Securityholders and holders of Senior Indebtedness of Parent and any
Subsidiary Guarantor. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

         (1) impair, as between Parent or a Subsidiary Guarantor and
     Securityholders, the obligation of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor,
     which is absolute and unconditional, to pay its Parent Guaranty or
     Subsidiary Guaranty to the extent set forth in Article 11; or

         (2) prevent the Trustee or any Securityholder from exercising its
     available remedies upon a default by Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor
     under its Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty, subject to the rights of
     holders of Senior Indebtedness of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor to
     receive distributions otherwise payable to Securityholders.

         SECTION 12.08. Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company. No right
of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of any Subsidiary Guarantor to enforce the
subordination of the Parent Guaranty of Parent or the Subsidiary Guaranty of
such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by
Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor or by its failure to comply with this
Indenture.

         SECTION 12.09. Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent. Notwithstanding
Section 12.03, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall continue to make payments on
the Parent Guaranty and any Subsidiary Guaranty and shall not be charged with
knowledge of the existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any such
payments unless, not less than two Business Days prior to the date of such
payment, a Trust Officer of the Trustee receives written notice satisfactory to
it that such payments are prohibited by this Article 12. The Company, Parent,
the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor, the Registrar or co-registrar, the Paying
Agent, a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness of Parent or such
Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to give the notice; provided, however,
that, if an issue of Senior Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor
has a Representative, only the Representative shall be entitled to give the
notice.

         The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity shall be entitled
to hold Senior Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor with the same
rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. The Registrar and co-registrar
and the Paying Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall be
entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 12 with respect to any
Senior Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor

                                                                              86

which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of
such Senior Indebtedness; and nothing in Article 7 shall deprive the Trustee of
any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article 12 shall apply to
claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07.

         SECTION 12.10. Distribution or Notice to Representative. Whenever any
Person is to make a distribution or give a notice to holders of Senior
Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor, such Person shall be
entitled to make such distribution or give such notice to their Representative
(if any).

         SECTION 12.11. Article 12 Not To Prevent Events of Default or Limit
Right To Demand Payment. The failure to make a payment pursuant to the Parent
Guaranty or a Subsidiary Guaranty by reason of any provision in this Article 12
shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default. Nothing in
this Article 12 shall have any effect on the right of the Securityholders or the
Trustee to make a demand for payment on Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor
pursuant its Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty.

         SECTION 12.12. Trustee Entitled To Rely. Upon any payment or
distribution pursuant to this Article 12, the Trustee and the Securityholders
shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent
jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 12.02
are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other
Person making such payment or distribution to the Trustee or to the
Securityholders or (c) upon the Representatives for the holders of Senior
Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor for the purpose of
ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or
distribution, the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of
Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the
amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent
thereto or to this Article 12. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good
faith, that evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a
holder of Senior Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor to
participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 12, the
Trustee shall be entitled to request such Person to furnish evidence to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness
of Parent or such Subsidiary Guarantor held by such Person, the extent to which
such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and other
facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 12, and, if such
evidence is not furnished, the Trustee shall be entitled to defer any payment to
such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to
receive such payment. The provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02 shall be
applicable to all actions or omissions of actions by the Trustee pursuant to
this Article 12.

         SECTION 12.13. Trustee To Effectuate Subordination. Each Securityholder
by accepting a Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take
such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the
subordination between the Securityholders and the holders of Senior Indebtedness
of

                                                                              87

Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor as provided in this Article 12 and appoints
the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

         SECTION 12.14. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness
of Parent or Subsidiary Guarantors. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any
fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary
Guarantor and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay
over or distribute to Securityholders or the Company or any other Person, money
or assets to which any holders of such Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by
virtue of this Article 12 or otherwise.

         SECTION 12.15. Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness of Parent or
Subsidiary Guarantors on Subordination Provisions. Each Securityholder by
accepting a Security acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination
provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to
each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor,
whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the
issuance of the Securities, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to
hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be
deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring
and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

         SECTION 13.01. Trust Indenture Act Controls. If any provision of this

         The Company, Parent, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee by notice
to the other may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent
notices or communications.

         Any notice or communication mailed to a Securityholder shall be mailed
to the Securityholder at the Securityholder's address as it appears on the
registration books of the Registrar and shall be sufficiently given if so mailed
within the time prescribed.

         Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Securityholder or any
defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other
Securityholders. Except for a notice to Trustee which is deemed given when
received, if a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above,
it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

         SECTION 13.03. Communication by Holders with Other Holders.
Securityholders may communicate pursuant to TIA (Section) 312(b) with other
Securityholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the

         (2) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
     to the Trustee stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such
     conditions precedent have been complied with.

         SECTION 13.05. Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. Each
certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a covenant or condition
provided for in this Indenture shall include:

         (1) a statement that the individual making such certificate or opinion

     investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such
     certificate or opinion are based;

                                                                              89

         (3) a statement that, in the opinion of such individual, he has made

Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any
direction, waiver or consent, Securities owned by the Company or by any Person
directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect
common control with the Company shall be disregarded and deemed not to be
outstanding, except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee
shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only
Securities which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Also,
subject to the foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time shall be
considered in any such determination.

         SECTION 13.07. Rules by Trustee, Paying Agent and Registrar. The
Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of Securityholders.
The Registrar and the Paying Agent may make reasonable rules for their
functions.

         SECTION 13.08. Legal Holidays. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday,
payment shall be made on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday,
and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. If a regular record
date is a Legal Holiday, the record date shall not be affected.

Company under the Securities or this Indenture or of Parent or such Subsidiary
Guarantor under its Guaranty or this Indenture for any claim based on, in
respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a
Security, each Securityholder shall waive and release all such liability. The
waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the
Securities.

Act ("Rule 144A") and (ii) Persons other than U.S. Persons (as defined in

in definitive, fully registered form (collectively, the "Rule 144A Global
Security"); and Initial Securities initially resold pursuant to Regulation S
shall be issued initially in the form of one or more temporary global securities

only upon certification in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee that
beneficial ownership interests in such Temporary Regulation S Global Security
are owned either by non-U.S. persons or U.S. persons who purchased such
interests in a transaction that did not require registration under the
Securities Act.

                                                                               4

         Beneficial interests in Temporary Regulation S Global Securities may be
exchanged for interests in Rule 144A Global Securities if (1) such exchange
occurs in connection with a transfer of Securities in compliance with Rule 144A
and (2) the transferee of the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S
Global Security first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in a form
satisfactory to the Trustee) to the effect that the beneficial interest in the
Temporary Regulation S Global Security is being transferred to a Person (a) who
the transferor reasonably believes to be a QIB, (b) purchasing for its own
account or the account of a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of
Rule 144A, and (c) in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the
States of the United States and other jurisdictions, as applicable.

         Beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Security may be transferred
to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a Regulation S
Global Security, whether before or after the expiration of the Distribution
Compliance Period, only if the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a
written certificate (in the form provided in the Indenture) to the effect that
such transfer is being made in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S
or Rule 144 (if applicable).

         The Rule 144A Global Security, the Temporary Regulation S Global
Security and the Permanent Regulation S Global Security are collectively
referred to herein as "Global Securities". The aggregate principal amount of the
Global Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments
made on the records of the Trustee and the Depository or its nominee as
hereinafter provided.

         (b) Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 2.1(b) shall apply only to a
Global Security deposited with or on behalf of the Depository.

         The Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with
this Section 2.1(b), authenticate and deliver initially one or more Global
Securities that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depository for such
Global Security or Global Securities or the nominee of such Depository and (b)
shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such
Depository's instructions or held by the Trustee as custodian for the
Depository.

         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 by the Trustee as the custodian of the
Depository or under such Global Security, and the Company, the Trustee and any
agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be entitled to treat the Depository as
the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the
Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any
written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository
or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of
customary practices of such Depository governing the exercise of the rights of a
holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Security.

                                                                               5

         (c) Definitive Securities. Except as provided in this Section 2.1 or
Section 2.3 or 2.4, owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities shall

Issue Date, an aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million 9% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2014, (2) any Additional Securities for an original issue
in an aggregate principal amount specified in the written order of the Company
pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture and (3) Exchange Securities or Private
Exchange Securities for issue only in a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private
Exchange, respectively, pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, for a like
principal amount of Initial Securities, in each case upon a written order of the
Company signed by two Officers or by an Officer and either an Assistant
Treasurer or an Assistant Secretary of the Company. Such order shall specify the
amount of the Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original
issue of Securities is to be authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of
Additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture, shall certify
that such issuance is in compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture.

     2.3 Transfer and Exchange.

Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request:

               amount of Definitive Securities of other authorized

its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however,

     accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as
     applicable:

               (A) if such Definitive Securities are being delivered to the
         Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder,
         without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect; or

               (B) if such Definitive Securities are being transferred to the
         Company, a certification to that effect; or

                                                                               6

               (C) if such Definitive Securities are being transferred (x)
         pursuant to an exemption from registration in accordance with Rule
         144A, Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Securities Act; or (y) in
         reliance upon another exemption from the requirements of the Securities
         Act: (i) a certification to that effect (in the form set forth on the
         reverse of the Security) and (ii) if the Company so requests, an
         opinion of counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to it as

         to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A or (B) being transferred after
         expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period by a Person who
         initially purchased such Security in reliance on Regulation S to a
         buyer who elects to hold its interest in such Security in the form of a
         beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Security; and

               (ii) written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to
         direct the Securities Custodian to make, an adjustment on its books and
         records with respect to such Rule 144A Global Security (in the case of
         a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(A)), or Permanent Regulation S
         Global Security (in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause
         (b)(i)(B)) to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of
         the Securities represented by the Rule 144A Global Security or
         Permanent Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, such
         instructions to contain information regarding the Depository account to

procedures existing between the Depository and the Securities Custodian, the
aggregate principal amount of Securities represented by the Rule 144A Global
Security or Permanent Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, to be

exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person
specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global
Security or Permanent Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, equal to the
principal amount of the Definitive Security so canceled. If no Rule 144A Global
Securities or Permanent Regulation S Global Securities, as applicable, are then
outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon
written order of the Company in the form of an Officers' Certificate of the
Company, a new Rule 144A

                                                                               7

         interests therein shall be effected through the Depository, in
         accordance with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on
         transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depository
         therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Security
         shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance with
         the Depository's procedures containing information regarding the
         participant account of the Depository to be credited with a beneficial
         interest in the Global Security. The Registrar shall, in accordance
         with such instructions instruct the Depository to credit to the account
         of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in
         the Global Security and to debit the account of the Person making the
         transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Security being
         transferred.

               (ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial
         interest in one Global Security to a beneficial interest in another
         Global Security, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records
         the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Security
         to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the
         principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the
         Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a
         corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Security
         from which such interest is being transferred.

               (iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix
         (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a Global Security
         may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee
         of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository
         or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such
         nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor
         Depository.

               (iv) In the event that Global Security is exchanged for
         Definitive Securities to Section 2.4 of this Appendix, prior to the
         consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a
         Shelf Registration Statement with respect to such Securities, such
         Securities may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as
         are substantially consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.3
         (including the certification requirements set forth on the reverse of
         the Initial Securities intended to ensure that such transfers comply
         with Rule 144A, Regulation S or another applicable exemption under the
         Securities Act, as the case may be) and such other procedures as may
         from time to time be adopted by the Company.

                                                                               8

         (d) Restrictions on Transfer of Temporary Regulation S Global
Securities. During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership
interests in Temporary Regulation S Global Securities may only be sold, pledged
or transferred in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and only (i) to the
Company, (ii) in an offshore transaction in accordance with Regulation S (other
than a transaction resulting in an exchange for an interest in a Permanent
Regulation S Global Security), (iii) pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any
applicable securities laws of any State of the United States.

         (e) Legend.

               (i) Except as permitted by the following paragraphs (ii), (iii)
         and (iv), each Security certificate evidencing the Global Securities
         (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution
         thereof), in the case of Securities offered otherwise than in reliance
         on Regulation S shall bear a legend in substantially the following
         form:

                    OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR

                    REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH OF
                    CASES (I) THROUGH (IV) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE
                    SECURITIES

                                                                               9

                    WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY
                    PURCHASER OF THIS SECURITY FROM IT OF THE RESALE
                    RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE.

         Each certificate evidencing a Security offered in reliance on
     Regulation S shall, in addition to the foregoing, bear a legend in
     substantially the following form:

                    THIS SECURITY (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN

                    PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION
                    REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE
                    SECURITIES LAWS. TERMS USED ABOVE HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO
                    THEM IN REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

         Each Definitive Security shall also bear the following additional
     legend:

                    IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER, THE HOLDER WILL DELIVER TO
                    THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT SUCH CERTIFICATES AND OTHER
                    INFORMATION AS SUCH TRANSFER AGENT MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO
                    CONFIRM THAT THE TRANSFER COMPLIES WITH THE FOREGOING
                    RESTRICTIONS.

               (ii) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security
         (including any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global
         Security) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Registrar
         shall permit the transferee thereof to exchange such Transfer
         Restricted Security for a certificated Security that does not bear the
         legend set forth above and rescind any restriction on the transfer of
         such Transfer Restricted Security, if the transferor thereof certifies
         in writing to the Registrar that such sale or transfer was made in
         reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set forth on
         the reverse of the Security).

               (iii) After a transfer of any Initial Securities or Private
         Exchange Securities pursuant to and during the period of the
         effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to such
         Initial Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be,
         all requirements pertaining to legends on such Initial Security or such
         Private Exchange Security will

          cease to apply, the requirements requiring any such Initial Security
          or such Private Exchange Security issued to certain Holders be issued
          in global form will cease to apply, and a certificated Initial
          Security or Private Exchange Security or an Initial Security or
          Private Exchange Security in global form, in each case without
          restrictive transfer legends, will be available to the transferee of
          the Holder of such Initial Securities or Private Exchange Securities
          upon exchange of such transferring Holder's certificated Initial
          Security or Private Exchange Security or directions to transfer such
          Holder's interest in the Global Security, as applicable.

               (iv) Upon the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer with
         respect to the Initial Securities, all requirements pertaining to such
         Initial Securities that Initial Securities issued to certain Holders be
         issued in global form will still apply with respect to Holders of such
         Initial Securities that do not exchange their Initial Securities, and
         Exchange Securities in certificated or global form, in each case
         without the restricted securities legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto
         will be available to Holders that exchange such Initial Securities in
         such Registered Exchange Offer.

               (v) Upon the consummation of a Private Exchange with respect to
         the Initial Securities, all requirements pertaining to such Initial
         Securities that Initial Securities issued to certain Holders be issued
         in global form will still apply with respect to Holders of such Initial
         Securities that do not exchange their Initial Securities, and Private
         Exchange Securities in global form with the global securities legend
         and the applicable restricted securities legend set forth in Exhibit 1
         hereto will be available to Holders that exchange such Initial
         Securities in such Private Exchange.

         (f) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Security. At such time as all
beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for
Definitive Securities, redeemed, purchased or canceled, such Global Security
shall be returned to the Depository for cancellation or retained and canceled by
the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest
in a Global Security is exchanged for certificated Securities, redeemed,
purchased or canceled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such
Global Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books
and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Securities Custodian for such
Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or the
Securities Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

         (g) No Obligation of the Trustee.

               (i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any
         beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in
         the Depository or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the
         records of the Depository or its nominee or of any participant or
         member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the
         Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member,
         beneficial owner or other Person

                                                                              11

          (other than the Depository) of any notice (including any notice of
          redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to
          such Securities. All notices and communications to be given to the
          Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Securities
          shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered
          Holders (which shall be the Depository or its nominee in the case of a
          Global Security). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global
          Security shall be exercised only through the Depository subject to the
          applicable rules and procedures of the Depository. The Trustee may
          rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information
          furnished by the Depository with respect to its members, participants
          and any beneficial owners.

               (ii) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor,
         determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer
         imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to
         any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers
         between or among Depository participants, members or beneficial owners
         in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such
         certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly
         required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms
         of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial
         compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

         2.4 Definitive Securities.

         (a) A Global Security deposited with the Depository or with the Trustee
as Securities Custodian for the Depository pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be
transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive
Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of
such Global Security, in exchange for such Global Security, only if such
transfer complies with Section 2.3 hereof and (i) the Depository notifies the
Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global
Security and the Depository fails to appoint a successor depository or if at any
time such Depository ceases to be a "clearing agency" registered under the
Exchange Act, in either case, and a successor depository is not appointed by the
Company within 90 days of such notice, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion, notifies the
Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Securities
under this Indenture.

the Trustee located at its principal corporate trust office in the City of
Wilmington, State of Delaware, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to
time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Security, an equal aggregate
principal amount of Definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Any
portion of a Global Security transferred pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be
executed, authenticated and delivered only in denominations of $1,000 principal
amount and any integral multiple thereof and registered in such names

                                                                              12

as the Depository shall direct. Any Definitive Security delivered in exchange
for an interest in the Transfer Restricted Security shall, except as otherwise
provided by Section 2.3(e) hereof, bear the applicable restricted securities
legend and definitive securities legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto.

         (c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.4(b) hereof, the registered
Holder of a Global Security shall be entitled to 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.

         (d) In the event of the occurrence of one of the events specified in
Section 2.4(a) hereof, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee
Definitive Securities in definitive, fully registered form without interest
coupons. In the event that such Definitive Securities are not issued, the
Company expressly acknowledges, with respect to the right of any Holder to
pursue a remedy pursuant to Section 6.06 of this Indenture, the right of any
beneficial owner of Securities to pursue such remedy with respect to the portion
of the Global Security that represents such beneficial owner's Securities as if
such Definitive Securities had been issued.

                                                                       EXHIBIT 1

                   [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF INITIAL SECURITY]
                      9% Senior Subordinated Note due 2014

1. Interest

         Affinia Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its
successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein
called the "Company"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Security at the rate per annum shown above; provided, however, that if a
Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs,
additional interest will accrue on this Security at a rate of 0.25% per annum
(increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum after each consecutive 90-day
period that occurs after the date on which such Registration default occurs up
to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.00%) from and including the date on
which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on
which all Registration Defaults have been cured. The Company will pay interest
semiannually on May 30 and November 30 of each year, commencing May 30, 2005.
Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from November 30, 2004.
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 Securities (except defaulted
interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at the close
of business on the May 15 or November 15 next preceding the interest payment
date even if Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the
interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to
collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal and interest in money
of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a
Global Security (including principal, premium and interest) will be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the
Depository. The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated
Security (including principal, premium and interest) by mailing a check to the
registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a
certificated Security may be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account
maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects
payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying
Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately
preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee
may accept in its discretion).

3. Paying Agent and Registrar

         Initially, Wilmington Trust Company, a Delaware banking corporation
(the "Trustee"), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint
and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The
Company or any

                                                                               8

of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying
Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

4. Indenture

         The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of
November 30, 2004 ("Indenture"), among the Company, Parent, the Subsidiary
Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in
the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the
date of the Indenture (the "Act"). Terms defined in the Indenture and not
defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The
Securities are subject to all such terms, and Securityholders are referred to
the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms.

         The Securities are general unsecured obligations of the Company. The
Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.03 of the
Indenture, to issue Additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 of the
Indenture. The Initial Securities issued on the Issue Date, any Additional
Securities and all Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities issued in
exchange therefor will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the
Indenture. The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the
ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness;
pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase capital stock; make
investments; engage in transactions with affiliates; transfer or sell assets;
guarantee indebtedness; restrict dividends or other payments of subsidiaries;
and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets and
the assets of its subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to important
exceptions and qualifications.

5. Optional Redemption

         Except as set forth below, the Company shall not be entitled to redeem
the Securities.

         On and after November 30, 2009, the Company shall be entitled at its
option to redeem all or a portion of the Securities upon not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days' notice, at the redemption prices (expressed in percentages of
principal amount on the redemption date), plus accrued interest to the
redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if
redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on November 30th of the years set
forth below:

                                                    Redemption
              Period                                   Price
              ------                                ----------
              2009                                   104.500%
              2010                                   103.000%
              2011                                   101.500%
              2012 and thereafter                    100.000%

                                                                               9

         In addition, prior to November 30, 2007, the Company shall be entitled
at its option on one or more occasions to redeem Securities (which includes
Additional Securities, if any) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (which includes
Additional Securities, if any) originally issued at a redemption price
(expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 109%, plus accrued and unpaid
interest to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds from one or more
Equity Offerings (provided that, if the Equity Offering is an offering by
Parent, a portion of the net cash proceeds thereof equal to the amount required
to redeem any such Securities is contributed to the equity capital of the
Company or used to acquire Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified
Stock) from the Company); provided, however, that (1) at least 65% of such
aggregate principal amount of Securities (which includes Additional Securities,
if any) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such
redemption (other than Securities held, directly or indirectly, by the Company
or its Affiliates); and (2) each such redemption occurs within 90 days after the
date of the related Equity Offering.

         Prior to November 30, 2009, the Company shall be entitled at its option
to redeem all or any portion of the Securities at a redemption price equal to
100% of the principal amount of the Securities plus the Applicable Premium as
of, and accrued and unpaid interest to, the redemption date (subject to the
right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the
relevant interest payment date).

6. Notice of Redemption

         Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than
60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed
at his registered address. Securities in denominations larger than $1,000
principal amount may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000.
If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all
Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is
deposited with the Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain
other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue
on such Securities (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

7. Put Provisions

         Upon a Change of Control, any Holder of Securities will have the right
to cause the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Securities of such
Holder at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the
Securities to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of
repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record
date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date) as provided
in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture.

8. Guaranty

         The payment by the Company of the principal of, and premium and
interest on, the Securities is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint
and several

                                                                              10

senior subordinated basis by each of Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantors to the
extent set forth in the Indenture.

9. Subordination

         The Securities are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the Company,
Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantors on the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in the Indenture. To the extent provided in the Indenture, Senior
Indebtedness must be paid before the Securities may be paid. The Company agrees,
and each Securityholder by accepting a Security, agrees to the subordination
provisions contained in the Indenture and authorizes the Trustee to give it
effect and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for such purpose.

10. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

         The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations
of $1,000 principal amount and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer
or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may
require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or
transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by
the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any
Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be
redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any
Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be
redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.

11. Persons Deemed Owners

         The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of
it for all purposes.

12. Unclaimed Money

         If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for
two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company
at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After
any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company
and not to the Trustee for payment.

13. Discharge and Defeasance

         Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time shall be
entitled to terminate some or all of its obligations under the Securities and
the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government
Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to
redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

                                                                              11

14. Amendment, Waiver

         Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (1) the
Indenture and the Securities may be amended with the written consent of the
Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities
and (2) any default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the
written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of
the Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture,
without the consent of any Securityholder, the Company, Parent, the Subsidiary
Guarantors and the Trustee shall be entitled to amend the Indenture or the
Securities (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, mistake or
inconsistency, (ii) to comply with Article 5 of the Indenture, (iii) to provide
for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated
Securities, (iv) to add guarantees with respect to the Securities, including
Subsidiary Guaranties, (v) to secure the Securities, (vi) to add additional
covenants or surrender rights and powers conferred on the Company, Parent or the
Subsidiary Guarantors, (vii) to comply with any requirement of the SEC in
connection with qualifying the Indenture under the Act, (viii) to make any
change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder, or (ix)
to make amendments to provisions of the Indenture relating to the form,
authentication, transfer and legending of the Securities.

15. Defaults and Remedies

         Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (a) default for 30 days
in payment of interest on the Securities; (b) default in payment of principal on
the Securities at maturity, upon redemption pursuant to paragraph 5 of the
Securities, upon acceleration or otherwise, or failure by the Company to redeem
or purchase Securities when required; (c) failure by the Company, Parent or any
Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with other agreements in the Indenture or the
Securities, in certain cases subject to notice and lapse of time; (d) certain
accelerations (including failure to pay within any grace period after final
maturity) of other Indebtedness of the Company if the amount accelerated (or so
unpaid) exceeds $17.5 million; (e) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
with respect to the Company, Parent and any Significant Subsidiaries; (f)
certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in excess of $17.5 million
and (g) certain defaults with respect to the Parent Guaranty or any Subsidiary
Guaranty. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the
Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all
the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being
due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

         Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except
as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or
the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to it.
Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The
Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing Default
(except a Default in payment of

                                                                              12

principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the
interest of the Holders.

16. Trustee Dealings with the Company

         Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under
the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed
to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company
or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

17. No Recourse Against Others

         A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, as such, of
the Company, Parent, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee shall not have any
liability for any obligations of the Company, Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor
under the Securities, the Indenture, any Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty
or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or
their creation. By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases
all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the
issue of the Securities.

18. Authentication

         This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the
Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of
authentication on the other side of this Security.

19. Abbreviations

         Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Securityholder or
an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the
entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as
tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors
Act).

20. CUSIP Numbers

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

21. Holders' Compliance with Registration Rights Agreement

         Each Holder of a Security, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and
agrees to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, including the
obligations of the

                                                                              13

Holders with respect to a registration and the indemnification of the Company to
the extent provided therein.

                      9% Senior Subordinated Note due 2014

1. Interest

     Affinia Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its
successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein
called the "Company"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Security at the rate per annum shown above; provided, however, that if a
Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs,
additional interest will accrue on this Security at a rate of 0.25% per annum
(increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum after each consecutive 90-day
period that occurs after the date on which such Registration default occurs up
to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.00%) from and including the date on
which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on
which all Registration Defaults have been cured. The Company will pay interest
semiannually on May 30 and November 30 of each year, commencing May 30, 2005.
Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from November 30, 2004.
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 Securities (except defaulted interest)
to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at the close of business
on the May 15 or November 15 next preceding the interest payment date even if
Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest
payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect
principal payments. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the
United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public
and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global
Security (including principal, premium and interest) will be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the
Depository. The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated
Security (including principal, premium and interest) by mailing a check to the
registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a
certificated Security may be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account
maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects
payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying
Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately
preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee
may accept in its discretion).

3. Paying Agent and Registrar

     Initially, Wilmington Trust Company, a Delaware banking corporation (the
"Trustee"), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and
change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company
or any

                                                                               5

of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying
Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

4. Indenture

     The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of November
30, 2004 ("Indenture"), among the Company, Parent, the Subsidiary Guarantors and
the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture
and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of
1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the
Indenture (the "Act"). Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein
have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Securities are subject
to all such terms, and Securityholders are referred to the Indenture and the Act
for a statement of those terms.

     The Securities are general unsecured obligations. The Company shall be
entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture, to issue
Additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture. The Initial
Securities issued on the Issue Date, any Additional Securities and all Exchange
Securities or Private Exchange Securities issued in exchange therefor will be
treated as a single class for all purposes under the Indenture. The Indenture
contains covenants, among other things, that limit the ability of the Company
and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness; pay dividends or
distributions on, or redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments;
engage in transactions with affiliates; transfer or sell assets; guarantee
indebtedness; restrict dividends or other payments of subsidiaries; and
consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets and the
assets of its subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to important exceptions
and qualifications.

5. Optional Redemption

     Except as set forth below, the Company shall not be entitled to redeem the
Securities.

     On and after November 30, 2009, the Company shall be entitled at its option
to redeem all or a portion of the Securities upon not less than 30 nor more than
60 days' notice, at the redemption prices (expressed in percentages of principal
amount on the redemption date) plus accrued interest to the redemption date
(subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to
receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during
the 12-month period commencing on November 30th of the years set forth below:

                                                        Redemption
                 Period                                    Price

                 2009                                    104.500%
                 2010                                    103.000%
                 2011                                    101.500%
                 2012 and thereafter                     100.000%

                                                                               6

     In addition, prior to November 30, 2007, the Company shall be entitled at
its option on one or more occasions to redeem Securities (which includes
Additional Securities, if any) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (which includes
Additional Securities, if any) originally issued at a redemption price
(expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 109%, plus accrued and unpaid
interest to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds from one or more
Equity Offerings (provided that, if the Equity Offering is an offering by
Parent, a portion of the net cash proceeds thereof equal to the amount required
to redeem any such Securities is contributed to the equity capital of the
Company or used to acquire Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified
Stock) from the Company); provided, however, that (1) at least 65% of such
aggregate principal amount of Securities (which includes Additional Securities,
if any) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such
redemption (other than Securities held, directly or indirectly, by the Company
or its Affiliates); and (2) each such redemption occurs within 90 days after the
date of the related Public Equity Offering.

     Prior to November 30 , 2009, the Company shall be entitled at its option to
redeem all or any portion of the Securities at a redemption price equal to 100%
of the principal amount of the Securities plus the Applicable Premium as of, and
accrued and unpaid interest to, the redemption date (subject to the right of
Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date).

6. Notice of Redemption

     Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60
days before the redemption date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at
his registered address. Securities in denominations larger than $1,000 principal
amount may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000. If money
sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Securities
(or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with
the Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions
are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such
Securities (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

7. Put Provisions

     Upon a Change of Control, any Holder of Securities will have the right to
cause the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Securities of such Holder
at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities to
be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase
(subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to
receive interest due on the related interest payment date) as provided in, and
subject to the terms of, the Indenture.

8. Guaranty

     The payment by the Company of the principal of, and premium and interest
on, the Securities is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and
several

                                                                               7

senior subordinated basis by each of Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantors to the
extent set forth in the Indenture.

9. Subordination

     The Securities are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the Company,
Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantor on the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in the Indenture. To the extent provided in the Indenture, Senior
Indebtedness of the Company must be paid before the Securities may be paid. The
Company agrees, and each Securityholder by accepting a Security agrees, to the
subordination provisions contained in the Indenture and authorizes the Trustee
to give it effect and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for such purpose.

10. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

     The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of
$1,000 principal amount and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer or
exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require
a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer
documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the
Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any
Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be
redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any
Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be
redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.

11. Persons Deemed Owners

     The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of it
for all purposes.

12. Unclaimed Money

     If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two
years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at
its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After
any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company
and not to the Trustee for payment.

13. Discharge and Defeasance

     Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time shall be entitled to
terminate some or all of its obligations under the Securities and the Indenture
if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations
for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to redemption or
maturity, as the case may be.

                                                                               8

14. Amendment; Waiver

     Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (1) the Indenture
and the Securities may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at
least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities and (2) any
default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written
consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of the
Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without
the consent of any Securityholder, the Company, Parent, the Subsidiary
Guarantors and the Trustee shall be entitled to amend the Indenture or the
Securities (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, mistake or
inconsistency, (ii) to comply with Article 5 of the Indenture, (iii) to provide
for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated
Securities, (iv) to add guarantees with respect to the Securities, including
Subsidiary Guaranties, (v) to secure the Securities, (vi) to add additional
covenants or surrender rights and powers conferred on the Company, Parent or the
Subsidiary Guarantors, (vii) to comply with any requirement of the SEC in
connection with qualifying the Indenture under the Act, (viii) to make any
change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder, or (ix)
to make amendments to provisions of the Indenture relating to the form,
authentication, transfer and legending of the Securities.

15. Defaults and Remedies

     Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (a) default for 30 days in
payment of interest on the Securities; (b) default in payment of principal on
the Securities at maturity, upon redemption pursuant to paragraph 5 of the
Securities, upon acceleration or otherwise, or failure by the Company to redeem
or purchase Securities when required; (c) failure by the Company, Parent or any
Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with other agreements in the Indenture or the
Securities, in certain cases subject to notice and lapse of time; (d) certain
accelerations (including failure to pay within any grace period after final
maturity) of other Indebtedness of the Company if the amount accelerated (or so
unpaid) exceeds $17.5 million; (e) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
with respect to the Company, Parent and any Significant Subsidiaries; (f)
certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in excess of $17.5 million
and (g) certain defaults with respect to the Parent Guaranty or any Subsidiary
Guaranty. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the
Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all
the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being
due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

     Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as
provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or
the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to it.
Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The
Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing Default
(except a Default in payment of

                                                                               9

principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the
interest of the Holders.

16. Trustee Dealings with the Company

     Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the
Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed
to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company
or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

17. No Recourse Against Others

     A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, as such, of the
Company, Parent, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee shall not have any
liability for any obligations of the Company, Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor
under the Securities, the Indenture, any Parent Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty
or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or
their creation. By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases
all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the
issue of the Securities.

18. Authentication

     This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the
Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of
authentication on the other side of this Security.

19. Abbreviations

     Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Securityholder or an
assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the
entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as
tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors
Act).

20. CUSIP Numbers

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

21. Holders' Compliance with Registration Rights Agreement

     Each Holder of a Security, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees to
the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, including the obligations
of the

                                                                              10

Holders with respect to a registration and the indemnification of the Company to

Dear Sirs:

         Affinia Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), proposes to
issue and sell to Credit Suisse First Boston LLC, Goldman, Sachs & Co., J.P.
Morgan Securities Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and UBS Securities LLC
(collectively, the "Initial Purchasers"), upon the terms set forth in a purchase
agreement dated November 12, 2004 (the "Purchase Agreement"), $300,000,000
aggregate principal amount of its 9% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the
"Initial Securities") to be unconditionally guaranteed (the "Guaranties") by
each of the entities listed in Schedule A hereto (the "Guarantors" and together
with the Issuer, the "Company"). The Initial Securities will be issued pursuant
to an Indenture, dated as of November 30, 2004, (the "Indenture") among the
Company, the Guarantors named therein and Wilmington Trust Company (the
"Trustee"). As an inducement to the Initial Purchasers, the Company agrees with
the Initial Purchasers, for the benefit of the holders of the Initial Securities
(including, without limitation, the Initial Purchasers), the Exchange Securities
(as defined below) and the Private Exchange Securities (as defined below)
(collectively the "Holders"), as follows:

         1. Registered Exchange Offer. The Company shall, at its own cost, use
its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") a registration statement (the "Exchange Offer
Registration Statement") on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), with respect to a proposed offer (the
"Registered Exchange Offer") to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities
(as defined in Section 6 hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of
the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and
deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Initial Securities, a like
aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the "Exchange Securities") of the
Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the
Initial Securities (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial
Securities and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6
hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The Company shall use
its reasonable best efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement
to become effective under the Securities Act, shall keep the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement effective for not less than 20 business days (or longer,
if required by applicable law) after the date notice of the Registered Exchange
Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the "Exchange Offer
Registration Period") and shall consummate the Registered Exchange Offer within

                                                                              2

270 days after (or, if the 270th day is not a business day, the first business
day thereafter) the date of original issue of the Initial Securities (the "Issue
Date").

         If the Company effects the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company will
be entitled to close the Registered Exchange Offer 20 business days after the
commencement thereof provided that the Company has accepted all the Initial
Securities theretofore validly tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with the
terms of the Registered Exchange Offer.

         Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement, the Company shall as soon as practicable commence the
Registered Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange
Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in
Section 6 hereof) electing to exchange the Initial Securities for Exchange
Securities (assuming that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company within
the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the
ordinary course of such Holder's business and has no arrangements or
understandings with any person to participate in the distribution of the
Exchange Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission
from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange
Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions
under the Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities
laws of the several states of the United States.

         The Company acknowledges that, pursuant to current interpretations by
the Commission's staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in the absence of an
applicable exemption therefrom, (i) each Holder which is a broker-dealer
electing to exchange Securities, acquired for its own account as a result of
market making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Securities
(an "Exchanging Dealer"), is required to deliver a prospectus containing the
information set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in
the "Exchange Offer Procedures" section and the "Purpose of the Exchange Offer"
section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the "Plan of Distribution" section of such
prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by
such Exchanging Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and (ii) an
Initial Purchaser that elects to sell Exchange Securities acquired in exchange
for Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment is required to
deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Items 507 or 508 of
Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in connection with such
sale.

         The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the
prospectus contained therein in order to permit such prospectus to be lawfully
delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must comply with such
requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that
(i) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto
must be delivered by law by an Exchanging Dealer or an Initial Purchaser, such
period shall be the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging
Dealers and the Initial Purchasers have sold all Exchange Securities held by
them (unless such period is extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) and (ii)
the Company shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto,
available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any
Exchange Securities for a period of not less than 180 days after the
consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer.

         If, upon consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, any Initial
Purchaser holds Initial Securities acquired by it as part of its initial
distribution, the Company, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange
Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, shall issue and deliver to
such Initial Purchaser upon the written request of such Initial Purchaser, in
exchange (the "Private Exchange") for the Initial Securities held by such
Initial Purchaser, a like principal amount of debt securities of the Company
issued under the Indenture and substantially identical in all material respects
(including the existence of restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act
and the securities laws of the several states of the United States, but
excluding provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) to
the Initial Securities (the "Private Exchange Securities"). The Initial
Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities are
herein collectively called the "Securities".

                                                                              3

         In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall:

                  (a) mail or cause to be mailed to each Holder a copy of the
         prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement,
         together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related
         documents;

                  (b) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than
         20 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the
         date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders;

                  (c) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered
         Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
         New York, or Wilmington, Delaware, which may be the Trustee or an
         affiliate of the Trustee;

                  (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time
         prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last business day
         on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and

                  (e)  otherwise comply with all applicable laws.

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

                  (x) accept for exchange all the Securities validly tendered
         and not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the
         Private Exchange;

                  (y) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all the Initial
         Securities so accepted for exchange; and

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

         The Indenture will provide that the Exchange Securities will not be
subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture and that all the
Securities will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that
none of the Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a class
separate from one another on any matter.

         Interest on each Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange
Offer and in the Private Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment
date on which interest was paid on the Initial Securities surrendered in
exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities,
from the date of original issue of the Initial Securities.

         Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be
required to represent to the Company that at the time of the consummation of the
Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder
will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business, (ii) such Holder will
have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the
distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of
the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an "affiliate," as defined in Rule
405 of the Securities Act, of the Company, or if it is an affiliate, such Holder
will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a
broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the
distribution of the Exchange Securities and (v) if such Holder is a
broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in
exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making
activities or other trading activities and that it will be required to
acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of
such Exchange Securities.

                                                                              4

         Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company will ensure
that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and
any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all
material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment
thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus
forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to
such prospectus, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading.

         2. Shelf Registration. If, (i) because of any change in law or in
applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission, the Company
is not permitted to effect a Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by
Section 1 hereof, (ii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within
270 days of the Issue Date, (iii) any Initial Purchaser shall notify us
following the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer that the Initial
Securities (or the Private Exchange Securities) not eligible to be exchanged for
Exchange Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer or (iv) any Holder (other
than an Exchanging Dealer) is not eligible to participate in the Registered
Exchange Offer or, in the case of any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer)
that participates in the Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder does not receive
freely tradeable Exchange Securities on the date of the exchange, the Company
shall take the following actions:

                  (a) The Company shall, at its cost, promptly file with the
         Commission and thereafter shall use its reasonable best efforts to
         cause to be declared effective on or prior to the 270th day after the
         Issue Date a registration statement (the "Shelf Registration Statement"
         and, together with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a
         "Registration Statement") on an appropriate form under the Securities
         Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted
         Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof) by the Holders thereof from
         time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth
         in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities
         Act (hereinafter, the "Shelf Registration"); provided, however, that no
         Holder (other than an Initial Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the
         Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement
         unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions
         of this Agreement applicable to such Holder.

                  (b) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep
         the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to
         permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the
         Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of two years (or for
         such longer period if extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) from the
         Issue Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all the
         Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been
         disposed of pursuant thereto or (ii) are no longer restricted
         securities (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any
         successor rule thereof) (the "Shelf Registration Period").

                  (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to
         the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement
         and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as
         of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or
         supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable
         requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the
         Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material
         fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
         necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
         circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

         3. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration
contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the extent applicable, any Registered
Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall
apply:

                                                                               5

                  (a) The Company shall (i) furnish to each Initial Purchaser,
         prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the
         Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement,
         if any, to the prospectus included therein and, in the event that an
         Initial Purchaser (with respect to any portion of an unsold allotment
         from the original offering) is participating in the Registered Exchange
         Offer or the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall use its
         reasonable efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with
         the Commission, such comments as such Initial Purchaser reasonably may
         propose; (ii) include the information set forth in Annex A hereto on
         the cover, in Annex B hereto in the "Exchange Offer Procedures" section
         and the "Purpose of the Exchange Offer" section and in Annex C hereto
         in the "Plan of Distribution" section of the prospectus forming a part
         of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and include the
         information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter of Transmittal
         delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; (iii) if requested
         by an Initial Purchaser, include the information required by Items 507
         or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in
         the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement; (iv) include within the prospectus contained in the Exchange
         Offer Registration Statement a section entitled "Plan of Distribution,"
         reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchasers, which shall contain a
         summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff
         of the Commission with respect to the potential "underwriter" status of
         any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule
         13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
         "Exchange Act")) of Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer
         in the Registered Exchange Offer (a "Participating Broker-Dealer"),
         whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by
         the staff of the Commission or such positions or policies, in the
         reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchasers based upon advice of
         counsel (which may be in-house counsel), represent the prevailing views
         of the staff of the Commission; and (v) in the case of a Shelf
         Registration Statement, include the names of the Holders, who propose
         to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as
         selling securityholders.

                  (b) The Company shall give, or cause to be given, written
         notice to the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any
         Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the Company has received prior
         written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the
         Registered Exchange Offer (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v)
         hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the
         prospectus until the requisite changes have been made):

                           (i) when the Registration Statement or any amendment
                  thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the
                  Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto
                  has become effective;

                           (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments
                  or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus
                  included therein or for additional information;

                           (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop
                  order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
                  Statement or the initiation of any proceeding for that
                  purpose;

                           (iv) of the receipt by the Company or its legal
                  counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of
                  the qualification of the Securities for sale in any
                  jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any
                  proceeding for such purpose; and

                           (v) of the happening of any event that requires the
                  Company to make changes in the Registration Statement or the
                  prospectus in order that the Registration Statement or the
                  prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material
                  fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated
                  therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the
                  case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under
                  which they were made) not misleading.

                                                                               6

                  (c) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
         obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order
         suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

                  (d) The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Securities
         included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge,
         at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any
         post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and
         schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits
         thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference).

                  (e) The Company shall deliver to each Exchanging Dealer and
         each Initial Purchaser, and to any other Holder who so requests,
         without charge, at least one copy of the Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial
         statements and schedules, and, if any Initial Purchaser or any such
         Holder requests, all exhibits thereto (including those incorporated by
         reference).

                  (f) The Company shall, during the Shelf Registration Period,
         deliver to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of
         the Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the
         prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the
         Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as
         such person may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to
         the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any
         amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of the
         Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities
         covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto,
         included in the Shelf Registration Statement.

                  (g) The Company shall deliver to each Initial Purchaser, any
         Exchanging Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other
         persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered
         Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus
         included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment
         or supplement thereto as such persons may reasonably request. The
         Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the
         use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any
         Initial Purchaser, if necessary, any Participating Broker-Dealer and
         such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the
         Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of
         the Exchange Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or
         supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement.

                  (h) Prior to any public offering of the Securities, pursuant
         to any Registration Statement, the Company shall register or qualify or
         cooperate with the Holders of the Securities included therein and their
         respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification
         of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or "blue sky"
         laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the
         Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts
         or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such
         jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Registration Statement;
         provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i)
         qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so
         qualified or (ii) take any action which would subject it to service of
         process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so
         subject.

                  (i) The Company shall cooperate with the Holders of the
         Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
         certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to any
         Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such
         denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request
         in writing a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities
         pursuant to such Registration Statement.

                  (j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by
         paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above during the period for
         which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration
         Statement, the Company shall promptly prepare and file a post-effective
         amendment

                                                                              7

         to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related
         prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter
         delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the
         prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
         omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
         necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
         under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the
         Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known
         Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through
         (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until
         the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the
         Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any such
         Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus, and
         the period of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement
         provided for in Section 2(b) above and the Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the
         number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice
         to and including the date when the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of
         the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have
         received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this
         Section 3(j).

                  (k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable
         Registration Statement, the Company will provide a CUSIP number for the
         Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange
         Securities, as the case may be, and provide the applicable trustee with
         printed certificates for the Initial Securities, the Exchange
         Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in a
         form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

                  (l) The Company will comply in all material respects with all
         rules and regulations of the Commission to the extent and so long as
         they are applicable to the Registered Exchange Offer or the Shelf
         Registration and will make generally available to its security holders
         (or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 11(a) of the
         Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of
         Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the
         end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year)
         beginning with the first month of the Company's first fiscal quarter
         commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement,
         which statement shall cover such 12-month period.

                  (m) The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified
         under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in a timely manner
         and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such
         qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the
         appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the Company shall
         appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions
         of the Indenture.

                  (n) The Company may require each Holder of Securities to be
         sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the
         Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of
         the Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require
         for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company may
         exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that
         unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time
         after receiving such request.

                  (o) The Company shall enter into such customary agreements
         (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form)
         and take all such other action, if any, as any Holder of the Securities
         shall reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the
         Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration.

                  (p) In the case of any Shelf Registration, the Company shall
         (i) make reasonably available for inspection at a location where
         normally kept and during normal business hours by a representative of
         the Holders of the Securities (an "Inspector"), any underwriter
         participating in any disposition pursuant to the Shelf Registration
         Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the
         Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter all relevant
         financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and
         properties of the Company and (ii) cause the

                                                                              8

         Company's officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to
         supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders of
         the Securities or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent
         in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as
         shall be reasonably necessary to enable such persons, to conduct a
         reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the
         Securities Act; provided, however, (i) that the foregoing inspection
         and information gathering shall be coordinated on behalf of the Initial
         Purchasers by you and on behalf of the other parties, by one counsel
         designated by and on behalf of such other parties as described in
         Section 4 hereof; and (ii) that any information that is reasonably and
         in good faith designated by the Company in writing as confidential at
         the time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by
         the Holders or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or other
         agent, unless (1) disclosure of such information is required by court
         or administrative order or is necessary to respond to inquiries of
         regulatory authorities, (2) disclosure of such information is required
         by law (including any disclosure requirements pursuant to federal
         securities laws in connection with the filing of such Registration
         Statement or the use of any Prospectus), (3) such information becomes
         generally available to the public other than as a result of a
         disclosure or failure to safeguard such information by such person or
         (4) such information becomes available to such Holder, underwriter,
         attorney, accountant or other agent from a source other than the
         Company and such source is not known, after due inquiry, by the
         relevant Inspector, underwriter, attorney, accountant or other agent to
         be bound by a confidentiality agreement or is not otherwise under a
         duty of trust to the Company.

                  (q) In the case of any Shelf Registration, the Company, if
         requested by any Holder of Securities covered thereby, shall cause (i)
         its counsel to deliver an opinion and updates thereof relating to the
         Securities in customary form addressed to such Holders and the managing
         underwriters, if any, thereof and dated, in the case of the initial
         opinion, the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement (it
         being agreed that the matters to be covered by such opinion shall
         include, without limitation, the due incorporation and good standing of
         the Company and its subsidiaries; the qualification of the Company and
         its subsidiaries to transact business as foreign corporations; the due
         authorization, execution and delivery of the relevant agreement of the
         type referred to in Section 3(o) hereof; the due authorization,
         execution, authentication and issuance, and the validity and
         enforceability, of the applicable Securities; the absence of material
         legal or governmental proceedings involving the Company and its
         subsidiaries; the absence of governmental approvals required to be
         obtained in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, the
         offering and sale of the applicable Securities, or any agreement of the
         type referred to in Section 3(o) hereof; the compliance as to form of
         such Shelf Registration Statement and any documents incorporated by
         reference therein and of the Indenture with the requirements of the
         Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act, respectively; and, as of
         the date of the opinion and as of the effective date of the Shelf
         Registration Statement or most recent post-effective amendment thereto,
         as the case may be, the absence from such Shelf Registration Statement
         and the prospectus included therein, as then amended or supplemented,
         and from any documents incorporated by reference therein of an untrue
         statement of a material fact or the omission to state therein a
         material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
         statements therein not misleading (in the case of any such documents,
         in the light of the circumstances existing at the time that such
         documents were filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act); (ii)
         its officers to execute and deliver all customary documents and
         certificates and updates thereof requested by any underwriters of the
         applicable Securities and (iii) its independent public accountants to
         provide to the selling Holders of the applicable Securities and any
         underwriter therefor a comfort letter in customary form and covering
         matters of the type customarily covered in comfort letters in
         connection with primary underwritten offerings, subject to receipt of
         appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by
         Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72.

                  (r) In the case of the Registered Exchange Offer, if requested
         by any Initial Purchaser or any known Participating Broker-Dealer, the
         Company shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver to such Initial
         Purchaser or such Participating Broker-Dealer a signed opinion in the
         form set forth in Section 6(c) of the Purchase Agreement with such
         changes as are customary in connection with the

                                                                              9

         preparation of a Registration Statement and (ii) its independent public
         accountants to deliver to such Initial Purchaser or such Participating
         Broker-Dealer a comfort letter, in customary form, meeting the
         requirements as to the substance thereof as set forth in Section 6(a)
         of the Purchase Agreement, with appropriate date changes.

                  (s) If a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to
         be consummated, upon delivery of the Initial Securities by Holders to
         the Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in
         exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange
         Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall mark, or caused to be
         marked, on the Initial Securities so exchanged that such Initial
         Securities are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Securities
         or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be; in no event
         shall the Initial Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied.

                  (t) In the event that any broker-dealer registered under the
         Exchange Act shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a member
         of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or "assist in the
         distribution" (within the meaning of the Conduct Rules (the "Rules") of
         the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD")) thereof,
         whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a
         placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or
         otherwise, the Company will assist such broker-dealer in complying with
         the requirements of such Rules, including, without limitation, by (i)
         if such Rules, including Rule 2720, shall so require, engaging a
         "qualified independent underwriter" (as defined in Rule 2720) to
         participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement relating
         to such Securities, to exercise usual standards of due diligence in
         respect thereto and, if any portion of the offering contemplated by
         such Registration Statement is an underwritten offering or is made
         through a placement or sales agent, to recommend the yield of such
         Securities, (ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent
         underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of underwriters
         provided in Section 5 hereof and (iii) providing such information to
         such broker-dealer as may be required in order for such broker-dealer
         to comply with the requirements of the Rules.

                  (u) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take
         all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities
         covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby.

         4. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1
through 3 hereof (including the reasonable fees and expenses, if any, of
Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, incurred in
connection with the Registered Exchange Offer), whether or not the Registered
Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration is filed or becomes effective, and, in
the event of a Shelf Registration, shall bear or reimburse the Holders of the
Securities covered thereby for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm
of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Initial Securities covered thereby to act as counsel for the Holders of the
Initial Securities in connection therewith.

         5. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless each Holder of the Securities, any Participating Broker-Dealer and each
person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer
within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder, any
Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred to
collectively as the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof
(including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each
Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any
amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a
Shelf Registration, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as
incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim,

                                                                              10

damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that (i) the
Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss,
claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a
Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto
or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and
furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for
inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or
alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus relating
to a Shelf Registration Statement, the indemnity agreement contained in this
subsection (a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or Participating
Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that a prospectus
relating to such Securities was required to be delivered by such Holder or
Participating Broker-Dealer under the Securities Act in connection with such
purchase, such untrue statement or omission was corrected in the prospectus and
any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder or Participating
Broker-Dealer results from the fact that there was not sent or given to such
person, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities
to such person, a copy of the final prospectus if the Company had previously
furnished copies thereof to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer; provided
further, however, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which the Company may otherwise have to such Indemnified Party. The
Company shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each
person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act
or the Exchange Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the
indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders.

         (b) Each Holder of the Securities, severally and not jointly, will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers and directors that have
signed a Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any actions in respect
thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a
Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto
or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out
of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in
each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or
on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the
limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as
incurred, the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or
defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This
indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may
otherwise have to the Company or any of its controlling persons.

         (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5
of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a
governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5,
notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to
notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any
liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the
extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of
substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the
failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability
that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or
(b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and
it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may
wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume
the defense thereof, with counsel of the indemnifying party's choice, provided
that such counsel is reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and
after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its
election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be
liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other
expenses, other than reasonable costs of

                                                                             11

investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any such action, any
indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party
unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually
agreed to the contrary; (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a
reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party; (iii) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded (based on
advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it that are
different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party; or
(iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties)
include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation
of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or
potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the
indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related
proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more
than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified
parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are
incurred. Any such separate firm for any Indemnified Parties shall be designated
in writing by a representative of the majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Securities held by such Indemnified Parties and any such separate firm for
the Company, its officers and directors that have signed a Registration
Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing
by the Company. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement or any
proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such
consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying
party agrees to indemnify each indemnified party from and against any loss or
liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the
foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested
that an indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses
of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the indemnifying party shall be
liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent
if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by the
indemnifying party of such request and (ii) the indemnifying party shall not
have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to
the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior
written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending
or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have
been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified
party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such
indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter
of such action, and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of
fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

         (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in
subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one
hand and the indemnified party on the other from the exchange of the Securities,
pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, or (ii) if the allocation provided by
the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law or if the failure of
an indemnified party to notify the indemnifying party of its right to
indemnification pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) above, has materially
prejudiced the indemnifying party (through the forfeiture of substantive rights
or defenses), in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of
the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on
the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the
parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company
on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may
be, on the other, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission and
other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. The amount paid
by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be
deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or
claim which is the subject of

                                                                              12

this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(d),
the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the
sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount
of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of
such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this
paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within
the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights
to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls
the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall
have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

         (e) The agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale
of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full
force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this
Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

         6. Additional Interest Under Certain Circumstances. (a) Additional
interest (the "Additional Interest") with respect to the Initial Securities
shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such
event in clauses (i) through (iii) below a "Registration Default"):

                  (i) If the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated on or
         before the 270th day after the Issue Date;

                  (ii) If the Company is obligated to file a Shelf Registration
         Statement pursuant to Section 2, the Shelf Registration Statement is
         not declared effective on or prior to the 270th day after the Issue
         Date; or
                  (iii) If after either the Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, is
         declared effective (A) such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to
         be effective during the periods during which such Registration
         Statements are required to remain effective hereunder; or (B) such
         Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable
         during the periods during which such Registration Statements are
         required to remain effective hereunder (except as permitted in
         paragraph (b)) in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted
         Securities during the periods specified herein because either (1) any
         event occurs as a result of which the related prospectus forming part
         of such Registration Statement would include any untrue statement of a
         material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
         statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they
         were made not misleading, or (2) it shall be necessary to amend such
         Registration Statement or supplement the related prospectus, to comply
         with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules
         thereunder.

Additional Interest shall accrue on the Initial Securities over and above the
interest set forth in the title of the Securities from and including the date on
which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on
which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, at a rate of 0.25% per
annum for the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of a
Registration Default, and such rate will increase by an additional 0.25% per
annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration
Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.0% per
annum.

         (b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 6(a)(iii)(B) hereof
shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf
Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration
Default has occurred solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective
amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited
financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective
amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit
Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events, with respect
to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration
Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the
Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such
Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events;
provided, however, that in any

                                                                              13

case if such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30
days, Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above
paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration
Default is cured.

         (c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to clause (i), (ii)
or (iii) of Section 6(a) above will be payable in cash on the regular interest
payment dates with respect to the Initial Securities. The amount of Additional
Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest
rate by the principal amount of the Initial Securities, multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest
rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day
year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360.

         (d) "Transfer Restricted Securities" means each Security until (i) the
date on which such Transfer Restricted Security has been exchanged by a person
other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the
Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) following the exchange by a broker-dealer in the
Registered Exchange Offer of a Initial Security for an Exchange Note, the date
on which such Exchange Note is sold to a purchaser who receives from such
broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a copy of the prospectus
contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, (iii) the date on which
such Initial Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act
and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iv) the
date on which such Initial Securities is distributed to the public pursuant to
Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant to Rule 144(k) under
the Securities Act. The Company shall notify the Trustee within one business day
after each and every date on which an event occurs in respect of which
Additional Interest is required to be paid and within one business day after
such Additional Interest ceases to accrue.

         7. Rules 144 and 144A. The Company shall use its best efforts to file
the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file
such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities,
make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales
of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company covenants that
it will take such further action as any Holder of Initial Securities may
reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such
Holder to sell Initial Securities without registration under the Securities Act
within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A
(including the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). The Company will provide a copy
of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of Initial Securities identified to
the Company by the Initial Purchasers upon request. Upon the request of any
Holder of Initial Securities, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written
statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company
to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act.

         8. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted
Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten
offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers
that will administer the offering ("Managing Underwriters") will be selected by
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer
Restricted Securities to be included in such offering and Holders of Securities
covered by such offering shall be responsible for all underwriting discounts and
commissions (other than any discounts and commissions, if any, payable to any
qualified independent underwriter retained pursuant to Section 3(t)), transfer
taxes and expenses of counsel in connection therewith.

         No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder
unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's Transfer Restricted
Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements
approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii)
completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms
of such underwriting arrangements.

         9.  Miscellaneous.

                                                                             14

         (a) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be
amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from
the provisions hereof may not be given, except by the Company and the written
consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities
affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consents.

         (b) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or
permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, first-class mail,
facsimile transmission, or air courier which guarantees overnight delivery:

                  (1) if to a Holder of the Securities, at the most current
address given by such Holder to the Company which address initially is with
respect to each Holder, the address of such Holder maintained by the Registrar
(as such term is defined in the Indenture);

                  (2) if to the Initial Purchasers initially at the address or
addresses set forth in the Purchase Agreement; and

                  (3) if to the Company initially at the address set forth in
the Purchase Agreement.

         All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly
given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; three business
days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when receipt
is acknowledged by recipient's facsimile machine operator, if sent by facsimile
transmission; and on the day delivered, if sent by overnight air courier
guaranteeing next day delivery.

         (c) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not, as of the date
hereof, entered into, nor shall it, on or after the date hereof, enter into, any
agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights
granted to the Holders herein or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

         (d) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
Company and its successors and assigns.

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

         (f) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

         (g) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

         (h) Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained
herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal
or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such
provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions contained
herein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

         (i) Securities Held by the Company. Whenever the consent or approval of
Holders of a specified percentage of principal amount of Securities is required
hereunder, Securities held by the Company or its affiliates (other than
subsequent Holders of Securities if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be
affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such Securities) shall not be
counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders
of such required percentage.

                                                                              15

         Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own
account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a
prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The Letter
of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a
broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the
meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or
supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection
with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities
where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed
that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date (as defined herein), it
will make this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection
with any such resale. See "Plan of Distribution."

                                                                      ANNEX B

         Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own
account in exchange for Securities, where such Initial Securities were acquired
by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection
with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See "Plan of Distribution."

                                                                     ANNEX C

prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This
Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used

this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for
use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until       , 200 , all
dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to
deliver a prospectus.(1)

         The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange
Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by broker-dealers for
their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time
in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated
transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or a
combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time
of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated
prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through
brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or
concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange
Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were
received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker
or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be
deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and any
profit on any such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or
concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting
compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by
acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a
broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the
meaning of the Securities Act.

         For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the Company will
promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or
supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents
in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses
incident to the Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the
Holders of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers
or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any
broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act.
