     3.  FIXTURES.  Included in this sale for the aforesaid purchase price are all

personal property and fixtures owned by tenants at the Premises.

     4.  CLOSING AND POSSESSION.  The closing shall take place on or before June
30, 2002, at the offices of Gager & Peterson, LLP, 2 Stony Hill Road, Bethel, Connecticut, at which time a deed to and
exclusive possession of said Premises shall be delivered to the Buyer upon payment of the aforesaid purchase price.

     5.  CONVEYANCE.  The Seller shall deliver to the Buyer, at the time of
closing, a deed of conveyance to the Premises, which shall be a full covenant Warranty Deed, duly executed and acknowledged,
conveying a good and marketable title in fee simple in and to the Premises, free and clear of all encumbrances and exceptions,
except as set forth in this Agreement.  At the closing, the Seller shall deliver the amount of the Connecticut real estate
conveyance taxes imposed with respect to this transaction.

     6.  ADJUSTMENTS.  Property taxes and municipal assessments shall be
apportioned according to local custom as of the date of closing. Water charges, fuel value, and rents, if any, shall also be
adjusted as of said date.  Should any tax or assessment be undetermined on the date of the closing of title, the last
determined tax or assessment shall be used for the purposes of the apportionment, subject, however, to later readjustment if the
final amount due differs substantially from the amount apportioned. 

     7.  TITLE EXCEPTIONS.  The Premises shall be conveyed to and accepted by the
Buyer subject to:

          (a)  Building lines if established, zoning and building
regulations, and any and all provisions of any ordinance, governmental regulation or public or private law affecting said Premises;
subject to Buyer's satisfaction with the Premises' compliance with the same pursuant to the terms of Section 11 hereof.

          (b)  Property taxes of the Town of Brookfield on the List
of 10/1/01, and any existing municipal assessments, commencing with the tax payment and/or assessment or installment thereof next
due after the date of closing, which the Buyer shall by acceptance of the deed assume and agree to pay, subject to adjustment as
hereinbefore stated.

          (c)  Any riparian rights of others in any stream or body
of water adjoining or passing through said Premises.

          (d)  Any and all assessments which may, on or after the
date hereof, be levied against or become a lien on said Premises for any municipal improvements hereafter made.

          (e)  Any state of facts shown on an accurate survey of the
Premises.

          (g)  Any covenants, easements and restrictions of record
which do not materially and adversely affect the use of the Premises subject to Buyer’s review and approval of the same
pursuant to Section 8B hereof.

          (h)  Those matters are set forth in Schedule
A attached hereto and made a part hereof.

     8.  TITLE.

          A.  TITLE DEFECT.  If because of a defect in the
title to the Premises Seller shall be unable on the date of closing to convey title as required hereunder, the closing date shall
be extended for a period of not more than thirty (30) days to permit Seller to perfect title.  If at the end of said thirty
(30) day period Seller, after using its best efforts, shall not have perfected title, then the Buyer may elect to accept such title
as Seller can convey upon payment of the purchase price or Buyer, on that ground, may reject acceptance of the deed of
conveyance.  Upon such rejection all sums paid hereunder by Buyer shall be repaid by Seller to Buyer.  Upon receipt of
such payment by Buyer or Buyer's attorney, this Agreement shall terminate and become null and void and the parties hereto shall be
released and discharged of all further claims and obligations each to the other hereunder.

          It is agreed that no matter shall be considered to be a defect in
title if under applicable provisions of the Standards of Title of the Connecticut Bar Association such matter is not considered to
be a defect in title without curative action or if a title insurance company licensed to do business in Connecticut will issue a
commitment to provide an owner's and mortgagee's policy at standard rates without exception for such item or insuring against loss
or damage arising therefrom.

          B.  TITLE SEARCH AND CERTIFICATION; SURVEY.  Buyer
shall procure at its expense any title search, title certification, or survey desired by it or any lender providing mortgage
financing for this transaction.  The Buyer shall deliver to Seller a copy of said title search or certification within thirty
(30) days after the date of this Agreement and shall simultaneously give Seller written notice of any title defect or any
encumbrance which is unsatisfactory to Buyer.  The Buyer shall be deemed to have waived objection to any title defect not
specified in such notice that is either set forth in such title search or certification, or is otherwise known to Buyer.

     9.  SELLER'S AFFIDAVIT.  The Seller agrees to execute, at the time of closing
of title, an affidavit (a) verifying the non‐existence of mechanics' and materialmen's liens (or Waiver of Mechanic's Lien as
provided in the following section), (b) verifying the non‐existence of any tenants' rights, except as set forth herein, (c)
verifying the non‐existence of any security interests in personal property and fixtures being sold with the Premises, (d)
that the Seller has no notice of any facts or circumstances not of record which could give rise to the claim of any third party to
rights of adverse possession or use over the Premises or any part thereof in derogation of Seller's title, and (e) to the extent of
Seller's knowledge, updating any available survey, which survey Seller agrees to provide to Buyer on or before closing.

     10.  WAIVER OF MECHANIC'S LIEN.  If any work has been done or material
furnished on the Premises within ninety (90) days prior to closing on behalf of Seller for which a lien could be filed, the Seller
agrees to deliver to the Buyer at the closing evidence of payment of such claims or absolute waivers of mechanic's liens. 
Failure to do so shall constitute a representation that no such work has been done nor any materials furnished.

     11.  TAX DEFERRED EXCHANGE.  Buyer hereby acknowledges that it is the
intention of one or both of the Sellers to complete an I.R.C. Section 1031 exchange in a manner which will not delay the closing or
cause additional expense to the Buyer.  The Seller’s rights and obligations under this agreement may be assigned to an
Intermediary of the Seller’s choice for the purpose of completing such an exchange.  Buyer agrees to cooperate with the
Seller and the Intermediary in the implementation of the exchange.  Cooperation means that Buyer will consent to an assignment
of this agreement by Seller to the Intermediary, agree to release the Intermediary from any claim made by Buyer, and agree to any
other appropriate action or execution of any other document which does not create additional liability or expense, but such
cooperation shall not require Buyer to take title to any other property or to assume additional liabilities.

     12.  RISK OF LOSS.  If a condemnation proceeding is instituted against the
Premises or any portion thereof, or if all or a portion of the Premises is substantially damaged by fire or other casualty, prior
to closing, and if the Seller does not at its option agree to repair or replace any such loss or damage, the Buyer may terminate
this Agreement upon written notice to the Seller, whereupon the Seller shall return the deposit monies to the Buyer and the parties
shall have no further liabilities or obligations hereunder.  If the Buyer does not so terminate this Agreement, this Agreement
shall continue to be effective, and the Seller shall assign to the Buyer at closing all of the Seller's right to receive any award
for such condemnation or insurance proceeds as a result of such damage (as the case may be), together with all of the Seller's
rights to litigate such claim and to negotiate a settlement with the condemning authority or the insurance carrier.

     13.  DEFAULTS.

          A.  If the Seller materially breaches this Agreement prior to
closing, the sole liability of the Seller shall be (and the remedies of the Buyer shall be limited to) either, at the option of the
Buyer, (i) the return by the Seller of the Buyer of the deposit monies (in which case this Agreement shall become null and void,
and the parties shall have no further liabilities or obligations hereunder), or (ii) a suit by the Buyer against the Seller for
specific performance only.

          B.  If the Buyer materially breaches this Agreement prior
to closing, the deposit monies shall be paid in full to the Seller either, at the option of the Seller, (i) as liquidated damages
for such breach, in which event this Agreement shall become null and void, and the parties shall have no further liabilities or
obligations hereunder; or (ii) as monies to be applied to the Seller's damages to be sought by Seller in a suit against Buyer.

     14.  BROKERAGE.  The Buyer represents that no agent or broker has called its
attention to said Premises, showed them to it or any representative of it or in any manner dealt with it or them or been
instrumental in effecting this transaction.  The Buyer agrees to save the Seller harmless from any loss, expense or liability
from any commission claim by any broker or agent by virtue of alleged dealings had by such claimant with the Buyer or a
representative of the Buyer, provided the Buyer shall be notified immediately of any such claim and may undertake the defense
thereof.  The Seller represents to the Buyer that it has not entered into any listing agreement with any agent or broker which
would entitle such agent or broker to a commission in connection with this transaction.  The Seller agrees to save the Buyer
harmless from any loss, expense or liability from any commission claim by any broker or agent by virtue of any such listing
agreement.

     15.  NOTICE.  All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have
been properly given if personally delivered or sent by private overnight express carrier, such as Federal Express, next business
day delivery, charges prepaid, addressed to the addresses set forth above.  Notices by the parties may be given on their
behalf by their respective counsel.  Notice shall be deemed to have been given upon the date of delivery, if personally
delivered, or one (1) business day after the date of deposit if sent by private overnight express carrier, such as Federal Express,
next business day delivery.

     16.  NON‐FOREIGN PERSON.  Seller represents that Seller is not a foreign
person as that term is used in Section 1445(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, and Seller agrees to execute an
affidavit to that effect and furnish Seller's Taxpayer Identification Number on or before the closing of title.

     17.  COMPLIANCE WITH IRC SECTION 6045.  Seller agrees to provide at closing
such information as is necessary to complete an IRS Form 1099, including, without limitation, current address, forwarding address
and taxpayer identification number.

     18.  COMPLETE AGREEMENT.  It is understood and agreed that this written
Agreement (including Schedule A, and any other schedule or schedules attached hereto) constitutes the entire contract
between the parties hereto, and that no oral statements or contract promises or understanding not embodied in this writing shall be
valid.

of violation, orders and/or other actions, pending or threatened, which pertain to the Premises.

     20.  WAIVER AND RELINQUISHMENT OF CLAIMS.  The Buyer has inspected the

nor any person acting or purporting to act for the Seller has made or now makes any representations or warranties except as
expressly set forth herein, and that the Seller is unwilling to make any representations and has held out no inducements to the
Buyer  other than those specifically set forth herein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Buyer has

The Seller is not liable or bound in any manner by any verbal or written statements, representations, or information pertaining to
the Premises or the operation, layout, expenses, condition, income, leases or rents furnished by any agent, employee, or other
person, unless the same are specifically set forth herein.  Subject to the provisions of Subsection 19 above, the Buyer agrees
to take the Property “AS-IS”, “WHERE-IS”, and in its present condition, subject to reasonable use, wear and
tear, and (subject to Section 12 above) due to a taking by condemnation or eminent domain, and due to natural deterioration between
the date hereof and the closing.  The Buyer  hereby waives and relinquishes any and all claims against the Seller except
as may arise from express representations.  Furthermore, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that as of the closing date, it shall
assume any and all obligations pertaining to the Premises, and will indemnify and hold the Seller harmless from and against any and
all claims arising therefrom.

     21.  SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS.  Delivery and acceptance of the deed shall constitute
full compliance by the Seller with all terms, covenants, conditions and agreements contained herein or connected with this
transaction, except for the warranties contained in the deed.

deemed to include any other gender and words in the singular number shall be deemed to include the plural when the sense of the
words requires the same.

     23.  SUCCESSION.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and
their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Seller's successors and
assigns.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may not be assigned by Buyer without the express prior written consent
of the Seller which may be withheld at Seller's discretion.

     24.  EXECUTION OF AGREEMENT.  This Agreement shall not be enforceable against
Seller or Buyer unless and until all parties have affixed their signatures hereto.

     25.  CONFIDENTIALITY.  The Buyer agrees that any and all information obtained
by the Buyer, its agents, representatives and employees, in connection with any examinations and inspections of the Premises will
be held in confidence by the Buyer and its agents, representatives and employees and will not be disclosed to anyone without the
prior written consent of the Seller.  In the event this Agreement is terminated prior to closing, the Buyer will return to the
Seller any documents and other materials received from the Seller.  The Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold the Seller
harmless from any loss, damages, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising as a result of the
Buyer’s breach of this Section 25.

     26.  MISCELLANEOUS.

          A.  This Agreement shall not be recorded in the land
records of the Town of Brookfield or in any other office or place of public record.  Any such recording without the Seller's
consent shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and at Seller's option shall cause this Agreement to become immediately null
and void.

          B.  This Agreement shall be governed and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut.

          C.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more

shall be determined in good faith by the chief financial officer, or, in the

floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest
expense 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 Hedging Obligation applicable to such Indebtedness if such
Hedging Obligation has a remaining term as at the date of determination in
excess of 12 months). For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect
is to be given to any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to a revolving credit
facility, the amount outstanding on the date of such calculation shall be
computed based on (1) the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such
four fiscal quarters or such shorter period for which such facility was
outstanding or (2) if such facility was created after the end of such four
fiscal quarters, the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the

     (n) GENERAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO REGISTRATION OF TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES.
To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and
the Principal Paying Agent shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive
Registered Notes upon the Issuer's order.

          (i) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration
     of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum
     sufficient to cover any taxes, duties or governmental charge payable in
     connection therewith (other than any such taxes, duties or governmental
     charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.11, 4.07,
     4.08 and 9.05 hereof).

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

          (iii) The Issuer shall not be required to register the transfer of or,
     to exchange, Definitive Registered Notes during (A) a period beginning at
     the opening of business 15 calendar days before any Redemption Date and
     ending at the close of business on the Redemption Date; (B) a period
     beginning at the opening of business 15 calendar days immediately prior to
     the date fixed for selection of Notes to be redeemed in part, and ending at
     the close of business on the date on which such Notes are selected; or (C)
     which the Holder has tendered (and not withdrawn) for repurchase in
     connection with a Change of Control Offer or an Asset Sale Offer.

          (iv) The Principal Paying Agent shall authenticate Global Notes and
     Definitive Registered Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section
     2.02 hereof.

SECTION 2.08 REPLACEMENT NOTES

     If a mutilated Note is surrendered to a Paying Agent or the Registrar, or
if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or
wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Principal Paying Agent shall
authenticate a replacement Note in such form as the Notes mutilated, lost,
destroyed or wrongfully taken if, in the case of a lost, destroyed or wrongfully
taken Note, the Holder of such Note furnishes to the Issuer, the Paying Agent or
the Registrar, as applicable, evidence reasonably acceptable to them of the
ownership and the destruction, loss or theft of such Note. If required by the
Issuer, the Paying Agent or the Registrar, an indemnity bond shall be posted,
sufficient in the judgement of each to protect the Issuer, the Paying Agent and
the Registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if such Note is
replaced. The Issuer may charge such Holder for the Issuer's exceptional
out-of-pocket expenses in replacing such Note, and the Paying Agent and the
Registrar may charge the Issuer for their expenses in replacing such Note. Every
replacement Note shall constitute an additional obligation of the Issuer and the
Registrar. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note, a bona fide
purchaser of the original Note

                                       38
<PAGE>

in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment or
registration such original Note, the Issuer shall be entitled to recover such
replacement Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking
therefrom, except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon
the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage,
cost or expense incurred by the Issuer, any Agent and any authenticating agent
in connection therewith.

SECTION 2.09  OUTSTANDING NOTES

     The Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes that have been
authenticated by the Principal Paying Agent except for (i) those cancelled by
it; (ii) those delivered to it for cancellation; (iii) to the extent set forth
in Section 8.02 on or after the date on which the conditions set forth in
Section 8.04 have been satisfied, those Notes theretofore authenticated and
delivered by the Registrar hereunder; (iv) Notes in respect of which the Issuer
has been fully discharged for the payment of principal, premium, interest and
Additional Amounts; and (v) those Notes described in this Section 2.09 as not
outstanding. Subject to Section 2.10 hereof, a Note does not cease to be
outstanding because the Issuer or one of its Affiliates holds the Note.

     If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding unless the Trustee and the Registrar receive proof satisfactory to
them that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such
Note is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer.

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

     If one or more Paying Agents hold, in their capacity as such, on the
Maturity Date or on any Redemption Date, money sufficient to pay all principal,
premium and accrued interest with respect to the outstanding Notes payable on
that date and are not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders thereof
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes
cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

SECTION 2.10  TREASURY NOTES

     In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of
Notes have concurred in any direction, request, waiver or consent, in the
exercise of any discretion, power or authority (whether contained in this
Indenture or vested by operation of law) which the Trustee is required,
expressly or impliedly, to exercise in or by reference to the interests of the
Holders or any of them and in the Trustee determining whether any event,
circumstance, matter or timing is in its opinion, materially prejudicial or
adverse to the interests of the Holders or any of them, Notes owned by the
Issuer, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or
under direct or indirect common control with the Parent, shall be considered as
though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the
Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, request, waiver or
consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows or believes are so owned shall be so
disregarded.

SECTION 2.11  TEMPORARY NOTES

     Until definitive Notes are prepared and ready for delivery, the Issuer may
prepare, and the Principal Paying Agent shall authenticate, temporary Notes.
Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may
have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes.
Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare, and the Principal Paying
Agent shall authenticate, definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.
Until such exchange, temporary Notes shall be entitled to the same rights,
benefits and privileges as definitive Notes.

                                       39

SECTION 2.12  CANCELLATION

     The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Registrar for cancellation.

surrendered to it for registration of transfer or exchange, or payment,
redemption or purchase. The Common Depositary shall cause all Global Notes to be
delivered to the Registrar for cancellation under the circumstances set forth in
Section 2.07(m). The Registrar shall cancel all Notes surrendered for
registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement, cancellation or
purchase and shall dispose of cancelled Notes in accordance with its policy of
disposal, unless the Issuer directs the Registrar to return such Notes to the
Issuer, and, if so disposed, shall deliver a certificate of disposition thereof
to the Issuer. The Issuer may not reissue or resell, or issue new Notes to
replace, Notes that the Issuer has redeemed, paid, purchased or converted, or
that have been delivered to the Registrar for cancellation.

SECTION 2.13   DEFAULTED INTEREST

     If the Issuer defaults on a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay
the defaulted interest, PLUS (to the extent permitted by law) any interest
payable on the defaulted interest, in accordance with the terms hereof, to the
Persons who are Holders of Notes, if any, on a subsequent special record date,
which date shall be at least ten Business Days prior to the payment date and
shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed
to be paid on the Notes and the date of such proposed payment. The Issuer shall
fix such special record date and payment date in a manner satisfactory to the
Trustee. At least 15 days before such special record date, the Issuer shall, in
accordance with Section 12.02, mail by first-class mail to the Common
Depositary, each Depositary and, if any Definitive Registered Notes are
outstanding, each Holder, a notice that states the special record date, the
payment date and the amount of defaulted interest and interest payable on such
defaulted interest, if any, to be paid.

SECTION 2.14  COMMON CODE AND ISIN NUMBERS

     The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use a "Common Code" number or an "ISIN"
number, and if so, such Common Code and/or ISIN numbers shall be included in
notices of redemption or purchase as a convenience to Holders; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the
correctness or accuracy of the Common Code and/or ISIN numbers printed in the
notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Issuer shall promptly notify
the Trustee and each Agent of any change in the Common Code and/or ISIN numbers.

SECTION 2.15  DEPOSIT OF MONEYS

     The Issuer hereby covenants with the Trustee that it shall, prior to 10:00
am (London time) on each Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date and each
payment date relating to an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer, and
on the Business Day immediately following any acceleration of the Notes pursuant
to Section 6.02, deposit with the Principal Paying Agent or in the circumstances
described in Section 2.16, the Trustee, in immediately available funds money (in
Euros) sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due in respect of the Notes on
such Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or Business Day, as the case may be.
Subject to receipt of such funds by such time by the Principal Paying Agent, the
Principal Paying Agent and each Paying Agent shall remit such payment in a
timely manner to the Holders on such Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date or
Business Day, as the case may be, to the Persons and in the manner set forth in
paragraph 2 of the Notes.

     The Trustee will hold the benefit of this covenant on trust for the Holders
and itself in accordance with this Indenture.

          (ii) to deliver up all Notes and all sums, documents and records held

     is obliged not to release by any law or regulation and provided that there
     shall at all times be a registrar so long as any Notes are outstanding;
     and/or

     (b) by notice in writing to the Issuer require it to make all subsequent

other duties or taxes (including penalties). The obligations in this Section
2.17 shall survive the termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture.

SECTION 2.18  COVENANT OF COMPLIANCE

compliance with the requirements of the principal securities exchange, if any,
on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a PRO RATA
basis, by lot or in accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair
and appropriate. In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes
to be redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from
the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. In the event of a
redemption of Global Notes, the Notes to be selected for redemption will be
determined in accordance with Applicable Procedures.

     The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of
Notes selected shall be in amounts of (euro)1,000 or whole multiples of
(euro)1,000; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the
entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple
of (euro)1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence,
provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also
apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

SECTION 3.03  NOTICE OF REDEMPTION

     At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the
Issuer shall provide notice of such redemption (and, following such notice,

in accordance with Section 12.02.

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

     (a)  the Redemption Date;

     (b)  the redemption price;

redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Note, a new
Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be
issued upon cancellation of the original Note or with respect to a Global Note a
notation shall be made on Schedule A thereof to reduce the principal amount of
such Global Note to an amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Global Note
surrendered;

     (e) the name and address of the Paying Agent to which the Notes are to be
surrendered for redemption;

     (f) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying
Agent to collect the redemption price and accrued interest and Additional
Amounts, if any;

     (g) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment,
interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the
Redemption Date;

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

     (i) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the
Common Code and/or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the
Notes; and

give the notice of redemption in the Issuer's name; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Issuer shall have delivered to the Principal Paying Agent, at least 45 days
prior to the Redemption Date, and Officer's Certificate requesting that the
Principal Paying Agent give such notice and setting forth the information to be
stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph.

SECTION 3.04   EFFECT OF NOTICE OF REDEMPTION

     Once notice of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof,
Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption
Date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. On
or after a Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions
of them called for redemption unless payment of the total amount due is not made
to the Principal Paying Agent in accordance with Section 2.15, in which case
interest will continue to accrue as provided in Section 3.05.

SECTION 3.05   DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE

     On or prior to the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the
Principal Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and
accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date, subject always to the
provisions of Section 2.16. The Principal Paying Agent shall promptly return to
the Issuer any money deposited with the Principal Paying Agent by the Issuer in
excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued
interest on, all Notes to be redeemed.

     If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on
and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or
the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after
an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date,
then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name
such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any
Note called for redemption shall not be

                                       43
<PAGE>

so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to
comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid
principal, from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid, and to the
extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at
the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

SECTION 3.06   NOTES REDEEMED IN PART

     Upon surrender of a Definitive Registered Note that is redeemed in part,
the Issuer shall execute and the Principal Paying Agent shall authenticate for
the Holder a new Definitive Registered Note equal in principal amount to the
unredeemed portion of the Definitive Registered Note surrendered; PROVIDED that
each such Definitive Registered Note shall be in a principal amount of
(euro)1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Upon surrender of a Global Note
that is redeemed in part, the Principal Paying Agent shall make a notation on
SCHEDULE A thereof to reduce the principal amount of such Global Note to an
amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Global Note surrendered, PROVIDED
that each such Global Note shall be in a principal amount of (euro)1,000 or an
integral multiple thereof.

outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes
held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries); and (2) the redemption occurs within
60 days of the date of the closing of such Public Equity Offering.

     The Issuer may, at its option, redeem all (but not less than all) of the
Notes then outstanding, in each case at 100% of the principal amount thereof,
plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest to the Redemption Date, if
the Issuer has become, or would become, obligated to pay, on the next Interest
Payment Date, any Additional Amounts as a result of change in law (including any

                                    COVENANTS

SECTION 4.01   PAYMENT OF NOTES

     The Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes
on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes and in this Indenture. The
Trustee will hold the benefit of this covenant in trust for the Holders and
itself in accordance with this Indenture. Principal, premium, if any, and
interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be
considered paid on the date due if the Principal Paying Agent, if other than the
Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof, holds on the due date money deposited by the
Issuer in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay
all principal, premium, if any, and interest and Special Interest and Additional
Amounts, if any, then due.

     The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate equal to
1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the
extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and
Additional Amounts and Special Interest (without regard to any applicable grace
period) at the same rate to the extent lawful.

     The Trustee shall hold the benefit of the Parallel Debt and the pledges
constituted by the Pool Acquisition Pledge Agreement on trust for itself and the
Holders in accordance with their respective interests under this Indenture. To
the extent that the Issuer makes a payment of all or any part of the Parallel
Debt to The Bank of New York pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Pool
Acquisition Pledge Agreement, such payment shall be deemed to be a payment by
the Issuer to the Trustee (as Trustee for the Holders) of the Issuer's
Obligations under the Notes and this Indenture and the Trustee shall hold such
payments on trust for itself and the Holders in accordance with their respective
interests under this Indenture. As soon as practicable after The Bank of New
York receives a payment of all or any part of the Parallel Debt, it shall
(subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 hereof) remit such payment to the
Principal Paying Agent (having, where applicable, deducted any amount required
to be applied pursuant to Article 2 of the Pool Acquisition Pledge Agreement
and/or Section 6.10 hereof). As soon as practicable after the Principal Paying
Agent receives a payment from The Bank of New York in respect of the Parallel
Debt, it shall remit such amounts to the Holders pursuant to the terms of the
Paying Agent Agreement. Each and all payments of the Parallel Debt by the Issuer
shall be deemed payments of the Issuer's Obligations under the Notes and this
Indenture on the Business Day such payments are made by the Issuer to The Bank
of New York pursuant to the terms of the Pool Acquisition Pledge Agreement.

SECTION 4.02   MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY

     The Issuer shall maintain the offices and agencies specified in Section
2.03 hereof. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.

     The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices
or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such
purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of
its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the
City of New York for such purposes. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice
to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the
location of any such other office or agency.

SECTION 4.03   REPORTS

     The Issuer shall furnish to the Holders and the Trustee and make available
to potential investors:

     (1)  with respect to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002, (A) within
          120 days after the end of such fiscal year, financial statements
          substantially identical to that which would be required to be included
          in the Annual Report on Form 20-F by a foreign private issuer subject
          to the US Exchange Act except that the Issuer shall not be required to
          include any reconciliation of line items to United States generally
          accepted accounting principles; and (B) within 180 days after the end
          of the Issuer's fiscal year, information substantially identical to
          that which would be required to be included in such Annual Report on
          Form 20-F by such a foreign private issuer;

     (2)  with respect to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003 and each
          fiscal year thereafter, within 120 days after the end of the Issuer's
          fiscal year, information substantially identical to that which would
          be required to be included in such Annual Report on Form 20-F by such
          a foreign private issuer;

     (3)  within 60 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal
          quarters in each fiscal year of the Issuer, all quarterly financial
          statements that would be required by Form 10-Q (in Finnish GAAP) if
          the Issuer were required to prepare and file such form; PROVIDED, that
          the Issuer may provide such information within 90 days after the end
          of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2002; and

     (4)  within the time periods applicable to each item set forth in Form 8-K
          and in accordance with the general instructions thereto, all
          information that would be required by Form 8-K if the Issuer were
          required to prepare and file such form.

     If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary and if any Unrestricted Subsidiary is a Significant Subsidiary or all
of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries, taken together, would constitute a Significant
Subsidiary (and if such Unrestricted Subsidiary or Subsidiaries are not
accounted for as discontinued operations), then the annual and quarterly
information required by the first two paragraphs of this covenant shall include
a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial
statements or in the footnotes thereto, of the financial condition and results
of operations of the

                                       46
<PAGE>

Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate and apart from the financial
condition and results of operations of such Unrestricted Subsidiary or group of
Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

     The Trustee is provided with the information described above and the other
Officers' Certificates, fairness opinions and resolutions of the Board of
Directors described under this Article IV and Article V for reference purposes
only and is under no duty to examine such information to ensure compliance with
the provisions of this Indenture or to ascertain the correctness or otherwise of
the information or the statements contained therein or in such certificates,
opinions or resolutions. The Trustee is entitled to assume such compliance and
correctness unless it is informed otherwise.

     In addition, so long as the Notes remain outstanding and during any period
during which the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the US Exchange
Act nor exempt therefrom pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b), the Issuer shall furnish to
the Holders and to prospective investors, upon their requests, the information
required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the US Securities
Act.

SECTION 4.04   COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATE

     (a) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end
of each fiscal year (without the need for any request by the Trustee) and at any
other time (within 14 days of a request therefor by the Trustee), an Officers'
Certificate stating that a review of the activities of such entity and its
Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year or, as the case may be, during the
12-month period ending on the date of such request, has been made under the
supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the
Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this
Indenture and the Pledge Agreements, and further stating, as to each such
Officer signing such Officers' Certificate, that to the best of his or her
knowledge the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every
covenant contained in this Indenture and in the Pledge Agreements and is not in
default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and
conditions of this Indenture and the Pledge Agreements (or, if a Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of
Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is
taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that to the best of his or
her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which
payments on account of the principal of or interest or Special Interest or
Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has
occurred, a description of the event and what action the Issuer is taking or
proposes to take with respect thereto.

     (b) The Issuer shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver
to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or
Event of Default, an Officers' Certificate specifying such Default or Event of
Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect
thereto.

SECTION 4.05  TAXES

     The Issuer shall pay, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental
levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings
or where the failure to effect such payment is not materially prejudicial in any
material respect to the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 4.06   STAY, EXTENSION AND USURY LAWS

     The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it
shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or
take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever
enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or
the performance of this Indenture and the Pledge Agreements; and the Issuer (to
the extent that it may

                                       47
<PAGE>

lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such
law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay
or impede the execution of any power herein and in the Pledge Agreements granted
to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law has been enacted.

SECTION 4.07  CHANGE OF CONTROL

     If a Change of Control occurs, the Issuer shall, within 10 days following
the occurrence of such Change of Control, commence an offer (a "CHANGE OF
CONTROL OFFER") to repurchase all of the Notes for cash equal to 101% of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid
interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes
repurchased, to the date of purchase.

     The Change of Control Offer shall remain open for a period of 30 days
following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer
period is required by applicable law (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL OFFER PERIOD"). No
later than five Business Days after the termination of the Change of Control
Offer Period (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL PURCHASE DATE"), the Issuer shall purchase
all Notes validly tendered in the Change of Control Offer. If and for so long as
the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of that
exchange so require, the Issuer shall publish notices relating to the Change of
Control Offer in a leading newspaper of general circulation in Luxembourg (which
is expected to be the LUXEMBURGER WORT).

     If the Change of Control Purchase Date is on or after the Regular Record
Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid
interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be paid to
the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such
Regular Record Date, and no additional interest, Special Interest, Additional
Amounts or such other amounts shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

     Upon the commencement of a Change of Control Offer, the Issuer shall give
notice thereof to the Trustee and to each of the Holders in accordance with
Section 12.02. The Issuer shall also provide timely notice to, and shall
cooperate in all respects with, Clearstream Banking and Euroclear, and any
successor Depositaries, to enable them to provide notice of the Change of
Control Offer to all Participants and Indirect Participants who hold Notes
within such systems and to allow such Participants and Indirect Participants to
tender their Notes in such offer. The notice shall contain all instructions and
materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer. The Change of Control Offer shall be made to all
Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Change of Control
Offer, shall:

     (a) state that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this
Section 4.07 hereof and the length of time the Change of Control Offer shall
remain open;

     (b) describe the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of
Control and shall describe the circumstances and relevant facts regarding the
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);

     (c) state the purchase price and the Change of Control Purchase Date;

     (d) state that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue
to accrue interest;

                                       48
<PAGE>

     (e) state that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note
accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to
accrete or accrue interest after the Change of Control Purchase Date;

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

     (g) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Change
of Control Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled
"Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse of the Note completed, or
transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Issuer, a depositary, if appointed by
the Issuer, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice during the
Change of Control Offer Period;

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

     On or before the Change of Control Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the
extent lawful, accept for payment, all Notes or portions thereof tendered
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer and shall deliver to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted
for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.07.
Upon receipt from the Issuer of the purchase price for the Notes accepted for
payment, the Principal Paying Agent shall promptly (but in any case not later
than five days after the Change of Control Purchase Date) mail or deliver to
each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes
tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and in the case
of Definitive Registered Notes the Issuer shall promptly issue a new Note, and
the Principal Paying Agent, upon written request from the Issuer shall
authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal
amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so
accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Principal Paying Agent to
the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Change
of Control Offer on the Change of Control Purchase Date.

     The Issuer will comply with any applicable securities laws and regulations
in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control
Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
conflict with this Section 4.07, the Issuer will comply with the applicable
securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its
obligations under this Section 4.07 by virtue of such conflict.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.07, the Issuer
will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon 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 Section 4.07
applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all
Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer.

SECTION 4.08  ASSET SALES

     The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

     (1)  the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives
          consideration (including non-cash consideration) at the time of the
          Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or
          Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of;

     (2)  the fair market value is determined in good faith by the Issuer's
          Board of Directors and evidenced by a resolution of the Issuer's Board
          of Directors set forth in an Officers' Certificate delivered to the
          Trustee; and

     (3)  at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the
          Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of Cash
          Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following
          shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents:

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

          (b) any securities, Notes or other obligations received by the Issuer
     or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are
     contemporaneously, subject to ordinary settlement periods, converted by the
     Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash
     received in that conversion.

     Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale,
the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply those Net
Proceeds:

     (1)  to repay Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement; PROVIDED that if
          such Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, the
          commitment with respect thereto is correspondingly reduced;

     (2)  to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or the Voting
          Stock of, another Permitted Business that, upon consummation of such
          acquisitions, becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;

     (3)  to make a capital expenditure;

     (4)  to acquire property, plant or equipment that are used in a Permitted
          Business; or

     (5)  to acquire shares in Keramag Keramische Werke AG, Sanitec Kolo Sp.
          Z.o.o., Sanitec International S.A., Polyroc S.A., Koralle
          International GmbH, Allia S.A., Omnium de Distribution Sanitaires
          Sp.Zo.o, Murena S.A. or Sphinx Gustavsberg Wroclaw Sp.z.o.o. not owned
          by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary for a price that does not
          exceed the fair market value of such shares, as determined in good
          faith by the Issuer's Board of Directors and set forth in an Officers'
          Certificate delivered to the Trustee.

                                       50
<PAGE>

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

     Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as
provided in the preceding paragraph shall constitute "EXCESS PROCEEDS". When the
aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds (euro)15,000,000, the Issuer shall
make an offer (an "ASSET SALE OFFER") to all Holders and all holders of other
Indebtedness that is PARI PASSU with the Notes containing provisions similar to
those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem
with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of
Notes and such other PARI PASSU Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the
Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer shall be equal to 100%
of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest and
Additional Amounts, if any, to the date of purchase, and shall be payable in
cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer,
the Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise
prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and
other PARI PASSU Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the
amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall allocate the Excess Proceeds among
the Notes and such other PARI PASSU Indebtedness on a pro rata basis and the
Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon
completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be
reset at zero.

     The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 30 days following
its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is
required by applicable law (the "ASSET SALE OFFER PERIOD"). No later than five
Business Days after the termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period (the "ASSET
SALE PURCHASE DATE"), the Issuer shall purchase the principal amount of Notes
required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 4.08 hereof (the "OFFER
AMOUNT") or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered
in response to the Asset Sale Offer.

     If and for so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange
and the rules of that exchange so require, the Issuer shall publish notices
relating to the Asset Sale Offer in a leading newspaper of general circulation
in Luxembourg (which is expected to be the LUXEMBURGER WORT).

     If the Asset Sale Purchase Date is on or after the Regular Record Date and
on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest
and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be paid to the Person
in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular
Record Date, and no additional interest, Special Interest, Additional Amounts or
such other amounts shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the
Asset Sale Offer.

     Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer shall give notice
thereof to the Trustee and to each of the Holders in accordance with Section
12.02. The Issuer shall also provide timely notice to, and shall cooperate in
all respects with, Clearstream Banking and Euroclear, and any successor
Depositaries, to enable them to provide notice of the Asset Sale Offer to all
Participants and Indirect Participants who hold Notes within such systems and to
allow such Participants and Indirect Participants to tender their Notes in such
offer. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to
enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset
Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the
terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

     (a) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.08
hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open;

     (b) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

     (c) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to
accrue interest;

                                       51
<PAGE>

     (d) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note
accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrete or
accrue interest after the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

     (e) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset
Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in integral multiples of
(euro)1,000 only;

     (f) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset
Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled
"Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse of the Note completed, or
transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Issuer, a depositary, if appointed by
the Issuer, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice during the
Asset Sale Offer Period;

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

     (h) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders
exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuer shall select the Notes to be purchased on a
PRO RATA basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer
so that only Notes in denominations of (euro)1,000, or integral multiples
thereof, shall be purchased); and

     (i) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued
new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes
surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer).

     On or before the Asset Sale Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent
lawful, accept for payment, on a PRO RATA basis to the extent necessary, the
Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale
Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered,
and shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that such
Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance
with the terms of this Section 4.08. Upon receipt from the Issuer of the
purchase price for the Notes accepted for payment, the Principal Paying Agent
shall promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Asset Sale
Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the
purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer
for purchase, and in the case of Definitive Registered Notes the Issuer shall
promptly issue a new Note, and the Principal Paying Agent, upon written request
from the Issuer shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such
Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note
surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by
the Principal Paying Agent to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall publicly
announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Asset Sale Purchase Date.

     The Issuer will comply with any applicable securities laws and regulations
in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To
the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict
with this Section 4.08, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities
laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations

SECTION 4.09   RESTRICTED PAYMENTS

     The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly (all such payments and other actions set
forth in the immediately following clauses (1) through (4) being collectively
referred to as "RESTRICTED PAYMENTS"):

     (1)  declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution
          on account of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity
          Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection
          with any merger or consolidation involving the Issuer or any of its
          Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the
          Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests in
          their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable
          in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Shares) of the Issuer or
          to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer);

     (2)  purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including,
          without limitation, in connection with any merger or consolidation
          involving the Issuer) any Equity Interests of the Issuer or any direct
          or indirect parent of the Issuer;

     (3)  make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease
          or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness that is
          subordinated to the Notes; or

     (4)  make any Restricted Investment;

     unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:

     (1)  no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would
          occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment; and

     (2)  the Issuer would have been permitted to incur at least (euro)1.00 of
          additional Indebtedness (other than Permitted Debt) pursuant to the
          Consolidated Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of
          Section 4.10; and

     (3)  such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all
          other Restricted Payments made by the Issuer and its Restricted
          Subsidiaries after the Issue Date (excluding Restricted Payments
          permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4) and (5) of the next succeeding
          paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

          (a) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Issuer for the period
     (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the first fiscal
     quarter commencing after the Issue Date to the end of the Issuer's most
     recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are
     available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated
     Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit), PLUS

          (b) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by the Issuer
     since the Issue Date as a contribution to its Share Capital (other than
     Disqualified Shares) or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the
     Issuer (other than Disqualified Shares) or from the issue or sale of
     Subordinated Shareholder Indebtedness of the Issuer or from the issue or
     sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Shares or convertible or
     exchangeable debt securities of the Issuer that have been converted into or
     exchanged for such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or
     Disqualified Shares or debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of the
     Issuer), PLUS

                                       53
<PAGE>

          (c) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after
     the Issue Date is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash,
     the lesser of (i) the cash return of capital with respect to such
     Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any) and (ii) the
     initial amount of such Restricted Investment, PLUS

          (d) 50% of any cash dividends received after the Issue Date from an
     Unrestricted Subsidiary by the Issuer or a Wholly-Owned Restricted
     Subsidiary, or with respect to such dividends received by a Restricted
     Subsidiary that is not a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary, a percentage
     of such dividends equal the percentage of the Share Capital of such
     Restricted Subsidiary Beneficially Owned by the Issuer divided by two, in
     each case to the extent that such dividends were not otherwise included in
     Consolidated Net Income of the Issuer for such period, PLUS

          (e) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer is
     redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date, the lesser of
     (i) the fair market value of the Issuer's Investment in such Subsidiary as
     of the date of such redesignation or (ii) such fair market value as of the
     date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted
     Subsidiary plus the amount of any subsequent Investments of the Issuer in
     such Subsidiary prior to such redesignation.

     So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be
caused thereby, the preceding provisions shall not prohibit:

     (1)  the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of
          declaration of the dividend, if at the date of declaration the
          dividend payment would have complied with the provisions of this
          Indenture;

     (2)  the purchase, redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other
          acquisition of any subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer or of any

          Interests of the Issuer in exchange for Equity Interests (other than
          Disqualified Shares) of the Issuer, or out of the net cash proceeds of
          (a) the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of
          the Issuer) of, Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Shares) of
          the Issuer, (b) the substantially current cash contribution to its
          Share Capital (other than Disqualified Shares), or (c) the issue or
          sale of Subordinated Shareholder Indebtedness;

     (3)  the purchase, redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other
          acquisition of subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer with the net
          cash proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing
          Indebtedness;

     (4)  the payment of any dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer
          to the holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis or on
          another basis if so required by applicable law;

     (5)  the payment or loan to the Parent or GermanCo, if at the time of such
          payment the Parent or GermanCo, as the case may be, is the parent
          company of the Issuer, of amounts required to (i) pay audit fees and
          expenses incurred by Parent or GermanCo attributable to the business
          of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; (ii) make payments with
          respect to customary salary, bonus and other benefits payable to

          paid and are attributable to the ownership or operation of the Issuer
          and its Restricted Subsidiaries; (iii) pay other expenses incurred to
          maintain the corporate existence of the Parent and GermanCo to the
          extent that such corporate existence is

<PAGE>

          necessary for the continued operation of the Issuer and its Restricted
          Subsidiaries; PROVIDED that the aggregate amount paid under subclauses
          (i), (ii) and (iii) of this clause (5) shall not exceed
          (euro)3,500,000 in any fiscal year except to the extent that the
          Issuer's Board of Directors, pursuant to a resolution set forth in an
          Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee, determines and
          certifies to the Trustee that additional amounts are necessary to be
          paid under subclauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this clause (5); and (iv)
          pay any federal, state or local Taxes to the extent that such Taxes

          agreement; PROVIDED that the aggregate price paid for all such
          repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests may not
          exceed (euro)5,000,000 in any fiscal year period;

     (7)  the repayment of all or, from time to time, any part of the PIK
          On-Loan 1 if the proceeds of such repayment are used to repay or
          redeem the PIK Loan and if, after repayment of the PIK On-Loan 1 and
          after giving effect thereto, the Issuer's Leverage Ratio is less than
          4.0 to 1; and

     (8)  following a Public Equity Offering, any dividend on the ordinary
          shares of the Issuer or any payment to GermanCo or the Parent in
          respect of any dividend on the ordinary shares of GermanCo or the
          Parent, as the case may be, that were issued in the Public Equity
          Offering; provided, that (i) at the time of the declaration of the
          payment of any such dividend, no Default or Event of Default shall
          have occurred and be continuing (or result therefrom) and (ii) the
          aggregate amounts of all such dividends under this clause shall not
          exceed in any fiscal year 6% of the aggregate Net Proceeds received by
          the Issuer from all of its Public Equity Offerings (or contributed to
          the Issuer as Share Capital (other than as Disqualified Shares) or
          loaned to the Issuer as Subordinated Shareholder Indebtedness if the
          Public Equity Offering was made by the Parent or by GermanCo).

     The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the fair
market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities
proposed to be transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Subsidiary, as the
case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any
assets or securities that are required to be valued by this covenant shall be
determined by the Issuer's Board of Directors whose resolution with respect
thereto shall be delivered to the Trustee. The determination of the Issuer's
Board of Directors must be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an
accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing if the
fair market value exceeds (euro)5,000,000. Not later than the date of making any
Restricted Payment, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate stating that such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth
the basis upon which the calculations required by this Section 4.09 were
computed, together with a copy of any fairness opinion or appraisal required by
this Indenture.

SECTION 4.10   INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED SHARES

     The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, Guarantee or otherwise
become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to
(collectively, "INCUR") any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the
Issuer shall not issue any Disqualified Shares and shall not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to issue any Preferred Shares; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Issuer
may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Shares
and the Issuer's Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness or issue

                                       55
<PAGE>

Preferred Shares, if the Consolidated Coverage Ratio for the Issuer's most
recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements
are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional
Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Shares is issued would have been
at least 2.0 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma
application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness
had been incurred or Disqualified Shares had been issued, as the case may be, at
the beginning of such four-quarter period.

     The first paragraph of this covenant shall not prohibit the incurrence of
any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, "PERMITTED DEBT"):

     (1)  the incurrence by the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
          term Indebtedness under Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal
          amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) not to exceed
          (euro)505,000,000 LESS the aggregate amount of all repayments,
          optional or mandatory, of the principal of any term Indebtedness under
          a Credit Facility (other than repayments that are concurrently
          reborrowed) that have been made by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
          Subsidiaries since the Issue Date;

     (2)  the incurrence by the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
          revolving credit Indebtedness and letters of credit under Credit
          Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time
          outstanding under this clause (2)(with letters of credit being deemed
          to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of
          the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed
          the greater of (w) (euro)50,000,000 or (x) the amount of the Borrowing
          Base as of the date of such incurrence; PROVIDED, that the aggregate
          principal amount of all Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause
          (2) shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of all commitment
          reductions with respect to any revolving credit borrowings under a
          Credit Facility that have been made by the Issuer or any of its
          Restricted Subsidiaries since the Issue Date;

     (3)  the incurrence by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the
          Existing Indebtedness;

     (4)  the incurrence by the Issuer of Indebtedness represented by the Notes
          to be issued on the Issue Date and the Exchange Notes to be issued
          pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement;

     (5)  the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
          Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage
          financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for
          the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost
          of construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in
          the business of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, in an
          aggregate principal amount not to exceed (euro)25,000,000 at any time
          outstanding;

     (6)  the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
          Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net
          proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace
          Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted
          by this Indenture to be incurred under clauses (3), (4), (6) or (15)
          of this paragraph;

     (7)  the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
          intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Issuer and any of its
          Restricted Subsidiaries; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that:

                                       56
<PAGE>

          (a) if the Issuer is the obligor on such Indebtedness, such
     Indebtedness must be unsecured and expressly subordinated to the prior
     payment in full in cash of all Obligations with respect to the Notes; and

          (b) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that
     results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the
     Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer and (ii) any sale or other
     transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Issuer
     or a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; shall be deemed, in
     each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer
     or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted
     by this clause (7);

     (8)  the guarantee by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
          Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer
          that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this
          covenant;

     (9)  the incurrence by Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Non-Recourse Debt;
          PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if any such Indebtedness ceases to be
          Non-Recourse Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such event shall be
          deemed to constitute an incurrence of Indebtedness not permitted by
          this covenant;

     (10) the incurrence by a Receivables Subsidiary of Indebtedness in a
          Qualified Receivables Transaction that is without recourse to the
          Issuer or to any other Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer or their
          assets (other than such Receivables Subsidiary and its assets and, as
          to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, other than
          pursuant to representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities
          customary for such transactions) and is not guaranteed by any such
          Person;

     (11) Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial
          institution of a cheque, draft or similar instrument drawn against
          insufficient funds or insufficient credit lines or facilities in the
          ordinary course of business; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such Indebtedness
          is extinguished within five Business Days of its incurrence;

     (12) obligations in respect of performance, bid and surety bonds and
          completion guarantees provided by or on behalf of the Issuer or any
          Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;

     (13) any Hedging Obligations of the Issuer or any of its Restricted
          Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary course of business to hedge
          or mitigate risks to which the Issuer or any of its Restricted
          Subsidiaries is exposed in the conduct of its business or the
          management of its liabilities and not for speculative purposes;

     (14) the incurrence by the Issuer of Subordinated Shareholder Indebtedness;
          and

     (15) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
          additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted
          value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted
          Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any
          Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause, not to exceed
          (euro)50,000,000.

     The Issuer shall not incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that
is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of
the Issuer unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right
of payment to the Notes on substantially identical terms; PROVIDED,

                                       57
<PAGE>

HOWEVER, that no Indebtedness of the Issuer shall be deemed to be contractually
subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer solely
by virtue of being unsecured.

     For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.10, in the event
that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the
categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (15) above, or is
entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, the
Issuer shall be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of
its incurrence in any manner that complies with this covenant. Indebtedness
under Credit Facilities outstanding on the Issue Date shall be deemed to have
been incurred on such date in reliance on clauses (1) and (2) of the second
paragraph of this Section 4.10.

SECTION 4.11  LIENS

     The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien in
respect of the incurrence of Indebtedness of any kind on any asset now owned or
hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens.

SECTION 4.12  DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING SUBSIDIARIES

     The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become
effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any
Restricted Subsidiary to:

     (1)  pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Share Capital to
          the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to
          any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits,
          or pay any indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted
          Subsidiaries;

     (2)  make loans or advances to the Issuer or any of its Restricted
          Subsidiaries; or

     (3)  transfer any of its properties or assets to the Issuer or any of its
          Restricted Subsidiaries.

     However, the preceding restrictions shall not apply to encumbrances or
restrictions existing under or by reason of:

          restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings,
          replacements or refinancings of those agreements, PROVIDED that the
          amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases,
          supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are no more
          restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other
          payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the
          Issue Date;

     (2)  this Indenture and the Notes;

          Indebtedness or Share Capital was incurred in connection with or in
          contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction
          is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any
          Person, other than the Person,

                                       58
<PAGE>

          or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, PROVIDED that,
          in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the
          terms of this Indenture to be incurred;

     (5)  customary non-assignment provisions in leases entered into in the
          ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices;

     (6)  purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary
          course of business that impose restrictions on that property of the
          nature described in clause (3) of the preceding paragraph;

     (7)  any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted
          Subsidiary or any assets of the Issuer or Restricted Subsidiary that
          restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary or such assets
          pending sale or other disposition;

     (8)  Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, PROVIDED that the restrictions
          contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing
          Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those
          contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being
          refinanced;

     (9)  Liens securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred under
          the provisions of Section 4.11 that limit the right of the debtor to
          dispose of the assets subject to such Liens;

     (10) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets
          or property in joint venture agreements, assets sale agreements, stock
          sale agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the
          ordinary course of business;

          any development made or other assistance provided to the Issuer or any
          Restricted Subsidiary by such governmental authority.

SECTION 4.13   TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

     The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or
assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract,
agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit
of, any Affiliate (each, an "AFFILIATE TRANSACTION"), unless:

     (1)  the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to
          the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would
          have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such
          Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

                                       59
<PAGE>

     (2)  the Issuer delivers to the Trustee:

          (a) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related
     Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of
     (euro)5,000,000, a resolution of the Issuer's Board of Directors set forth
     in an Officers' Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction
     complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate Transaction has been
     approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Issuer's Board
     of Directors; and

          (b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related
     Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of
     (euro)15,000,000, an opinion as to the fairness to the Issuer of such
     Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an
     accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of international
     prominence.

     The following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and,
therefore, shall not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

     (1)  any employment agreements entered into, or any stock options, loans or
          advances made to employees, by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
          Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and consistent with
          the past practice of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary;

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

     (3)  transactions between a Receivables Subsidiary and any Person in which
          the Receivables Subsidiary has an Investment;

     (4)  transactions with a Person that is an Affiliate of the Issuer solely
          because the Issuer owns an Equity Interest in, or controls, such
          Person;

     (5)  payment of reasonable directors fees to Persons who are not otherwise
          Affiliates of the Issuer;

     (6)  sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Shares) to
          Affiliates of the Issuer; and

     (7)  Restricted Payments that are permitted by Section 4.09.

SECTION 4.14      DESIGNATION OF RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES

     The Board of Directors of the Issuer may designate any Restricted
Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause
a Default or an Event of Default, PROVIDED that in no event shall the business
currently operated by Sanitec be transferred to or held by an Unrestricted
Subsidiary. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned
by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly
designated shall be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the
designation and shall reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under
the first paragraph of Section 4.09 or Permitted Investments, as determined by
the Issuer. That designation shall only be permitted if the Investment would be
permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the
definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Issuer's Board of Directors may
redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the
redesignation would not cause a Default or an Event of Default.

SECTION 4.15    SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS

     The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to,
enter into any sale and leaseback transaction; PROVIDED that the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a sale and leaseback transaction if:

     (1)  the Issuer or that Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, could
          have (a) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable
          Debt relating to such sale and leaseback transaction under Section
          4.10 and (b) incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness pursuant to
          Section 4.11;

     (2)  the gross cash proceeds of that sale and leaseback transaction are at
          least equal to the fair market value, as determined in good faith by
          the Issuer's Board of Directors and set forth in an Officers'
          Certificate delivered to the Trustee, of the property that is the
          subject of that sale and leaseback transaction; and

     (3)  the transfer of assets in that sale and leaseback transaction is
          permitted by, and the Issuer applies the proceeds of such transaction
          in compliance with, Section 4.08.

SECTION 4.16 LIMITATION ON ISSUANCES AND SALES OF EQUITY INTERESTS IN RESTRICTED
SUBSIDIARIES

     The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any
Equity Interests in any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to any Person (other
than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer), unless:

     (1)  immediately after giving effect to such transfer, conveyance, sale,
          lease or other disposition, (a) neither the Issuer nor any of its
          Restricted Subsidiaries owns any Equity Interests of such Restricted
          Subsidiary; or (b) such Restricted Subsidiary would no longer
          constitute a Restricted Subsidiary and the aggregate fair market value
          of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and its Restricted
          Subsidiaries in such Person remaining after giving effect thereto
          shall be deemed to be an Investment, and such Investment must be able
          to be made, and must in fact be made, under Section 4.09 and such
          Investment shall reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments
          under the first paragraph of such covenant; and

     (2)  the cash Net Proceeds from such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or
          other disposition are applied in accordance with Section 4.08.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, Koralle International GmbH and holders of
its Share Capital may in one or a series of transactions issue or transfer its
Share Capital to Persons other than to the Issuer or its Restricted
Subsidiaries; PROVIDED that at all times during such series of transactions it
remains a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; AND PROVIDED FURTHER that at the
conclusion of such series of transactions the percentage of its outstanding
Share Capital not owned by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries does not
exceed 6%.

     In addition, the Issuer shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of the
Issuer to issue any of its Equity Interests (other than, if necessary, Share
Capital constituting directors' qualifying shares) to any Person other than to
the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer.

SECTION 4.17   LIMITATIONS ON ISSUANCES OF GUARANTEES OF INDEBTEDNESS

     The Issuer shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or
indirectly, to Guarantee or pledge any assets to secure the payment of any other
Indebtedness of the Issuer unless such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously
executes and delivers a supplemental indenture providing for a Guarantee of the
payment of the Notes by such Restricted Subsidiary, which Guarantee shall be
senior to or PARI PASSU with such Restricted Subsidiary's Guarantee of or pledge
to secure such other Indebtedness.

the Shareholder On-Loan 1, any Subordinated Shareholder Indebtedness or the PIK
On-Loan 1 and Shareholder On-Loan 1 Subordination Agreement in any way to:

          the interests of the Holders.

     (2)  decrease the principal of, delay the final maturity date of, or

          and the Shareholder On-Loan 2 or the Notes On-Loan; or

     (3)  amend any provisions of the PIK On-Loan 2 and the Shareholder On-Loan
          2 or the Notes On-Loan in any manner adverse to the interests of the
          Holders.

SECTION 4.19   REPAYMENT OF CERTAIN LOANS

     Except as may be permitted by Section 4.09, neither the Issuer nor any
Restricted Subsidiary shall at any time make any payments with respect to the
PIK On-Loan 1 or the Shareholder On-Loan 1 or any Subordinated Shareholder
Indebtedness.

SECTION 4.20   BUSINESS ACTIVITIES

SECTION 4.24   ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS

     All payments made under, or with respect to, the Notes shall be made free
and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for or on account of, any
present or future Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Taxing
Authority within Luxembourg or within any other jurisdiction in which the Issuer
or any Surviving Entity is organized or resident for tax purposes or any
political subdivision thereof or any Taxing Authority therein (each, a "RELEVANT
TAXING JURISDICTION"), unless the Issuer or any Surviving Entity is required to
withhold or deduct Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration
thereof.

     If the Issuer or any Surviving Entity is required to withhold or deduct any
amount for, or on account of, Taxes imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction,
from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes, the Issuer or the
Surviving Entity shall pay such additional amounts ("ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS") as may
be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including
Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction shall equal the amount
the Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to:

     (1)  any Tax that would not have been imposed, payable or due but for the
          existence of any connection between the Holder (or the beneficial
          owner of, or person ultimately entitled to obtain an interest in, such
          Notes) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including being a citizen
          or resident or national of, or carrying on a business or maintaining a
          permanent establishment in, or being physically present in, the
          Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) other

                                       63
<PAGE>

          than the mere holding of the Notes or enforcement of rights thereunder
          or the receipt of payments in respect thereof;

     (2)  any Tax that would not have been imposed, payable or due but for the
          failure to satisfy any certification, identification or other
          reporting requirements whether imposed by statute, treaty, regulation
          or administrative practice; provided, however, that the Issuer or any
          Surviving Entity has delivered a request to the Holder to comply with
          such requirements reasonably prior to the date by which such
          compliance is required giving each Holder reasonably sufficient time
          to satisfy those requirements;

     (3)  any Tax that would not have been imposed, payable or due if the
          presentation of Notes (where presentation is required) for payment had
          occurred within 30 days after the date such payment was due and
          payable or was duly provided for, whichever is later; provided,
          however, that the Issuer or the Surviving Entity has delivered to each
          Holder a notice to present Notes for payment within such 30-day
          period;

     (4)  a withholding or deduction imposed on a payment to an individual that
          is required to be made pursuant to any European Union Directive on the
          taxation of savings implementing the proposal for such a directive
          presented by the European Commission on July 18, 2001, or any law
          implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to,
          such directive;

     (5)  any Tax presented for payment by or on behalf of a Holder who would
          have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting
          the relevant Note to another Paying Agent in a member state of the
          European Union;

     (6)  any estate, inheritance, gift, sale transfer, personal property or
          similar tax, assessment or governmental charge; or

     (7)  any combination of items (1) through (6) (each, and "EXCLUDED TAX").

     If the Issuer or any Surviving Entity shall be obligated to pay Additional
Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to the Notes, the
Issuer or the Surviving Entity shall deliver to the Trustee as least 30 days
prior to the date of that payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional
Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the
Issuer or the Surviving Entity shall notify the Trustee promptly thereafter) an
Officers' Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts shall be payable
and the amount so payable. The Officers' Certificate must also set forth any
other information necessary to enable the Paying Agent to pay Additional Amounts
to Holders on the relevant payment date. Upon request, the Issuer or the
Surviving Entity shall provide the Trustee with documentation reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts.

     The Issuer or any Surviving Entity shall make all required withholdings and
deductions and shall remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
authority in accordance with applicable law. The Issuer or the Surviving Entity
shall use their reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts
evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from each Taxing
Authority. The Issuer or the Surviving Entity shall furnish to the Holders,
within 30 days after the date the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld
is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing
payment by the Issuer or the Surviving Entity, or if, notwithstanding the
Issuer's or the Surviving Entity's efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are not
obtained, other evidence of payments by the Issuer or the Surviving Entity.

                                       64
<PAGE>

     The Issuer or any Surviving Entity shall pay any stamp, transfer, court or
documentary taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar
levies or Taxes which arise from the initial execution, delivery or registration
of the Notes, the initial resale thereof by the initial purchasers on the Issue
Date and the enforcement of the Notes and the security therefor following the
occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

     The Issuer or any Surviving Entity shall indemnify and hold harmless each
Holder of Notes and upon written request reimburse each such Holder for the
amount, other than any Excluded Tax and excluding any payment of Additional
Amounts by the Issuer or the Surviving Entity, of:

     (1)  any Taxes imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction and paid by such
          Holder as a result of payments made under or with respect to the
          Notes;

     (2)  any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising
          therefrom or with respect thereto; and

     (3)  any Taxes imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction with respect to
          any reimbursement under clause (1) and (2) of this paragraph, but
          excluding any Taxes imposed by the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on
          such Holder's net income.

SECTION 4.25   GENERAL ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

paragraph (8), in relation to Paying Agents only, so long as any of the Notes
remains liable to prescription) the Issuer covenants with the Trustee that it
shall:

     (1)  give or procure to be given to the Trustee such opinions,
          certificates, reports, information and evidence as it shall properly
          require and in such form as it shall properly require (including
          without limitation the procurement by the Issuer of all such Officers'
          Certificates called for by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.02) for
          the purpose of the discharge or exercise of the duties, trusts,
          powers, authorities and discretions vested in it under this Indenture
          or by operation of law;

     (2)  at all times keep and procure its Subsidiaries to keep proper books of
          account and, following the occurrence of a Default or an Event of
          Default or if the Trustee has reasonable grounds to believe that a
          Default or an Event of Default has occurred or is about to occur,
          allow and procure its Subsidiaries to allow the Trustee and any person
          appointed by the Trustee to whom the Issuer or the relevant Subsidiary
          (as the case may be) shall have no reasonable objection free access to
          such books of account at all reasonable times during normal business
          hours upon reasonable notice being given;

     (3)  at all times execute and do all such further documents, acts and
          things as may be necessary at any time or times in the opinion of the
          Trustee to carry out the Trustee's obligations under this Indenture;

     (4)  use its reasonable endeavours to procure the Principal Paying Agent to
          notify the Trustee forthwith in the event that it does not, on or
          before the due date for any payment in respect of the Notes or any of
          them, receive unconditionally pursuant to the Paying Agency Agreement
          payment of the full amount in the requisite currency of the moneys
          payable on such due date on all such Notes; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if the
          Principal Paying Agent and the Trustee are the same entity, then no
          such notices shall be required;

                                       65
<PAGE>

     (5)  in the event of the unconditional payment to the Principal Paying
          Agent or the Trustee of any sum due in respect of the Notes or any of
          them being made after the due date for payment thereof forthwith give
          or cause the Principal Paying Agent to give notice (at the expense of
          the Issuer) to the relevant Holders that such payment has been made;

     (6)  use all reasonable endeavours to maintain the listing of the Notes on
          the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or, if it is unable to do so having used
          all reasonable endeavours, use all reasonable endeavours to obtain and
          maintain a quotation or listing of the Notes on such other stock
          exchange or exchanges or securities market or markets as the Issuer
          may (with the prior written approval of the Trustee (which approval
          shall not be unreasonably withheld)) decide and shall also upon
          obtaining a quotation or listing of the Notes on such other stock
          exchange or exchanges or securities market or markets enter into a
          supplemental indenture to effect such consequential amendments to this
          Indenture as shall be requisite to comply with the requirements of any
          such stock exchange or securities market;

     (7)  obtain the prior written approval of the Trustee to, and promptly give
          to the Trustee two copies of, the form of every notice given to the
          Holders (such approval, unless so expressed, not to constitute
          approval for the purposes of Section 21 of the Financial Services and
          Markets Act 2000 of the United Kingdom of a communication within the
          meaning of Section 21 of such act; and

     (8)  comply with and perform all its obligations under the Paying Agency
          Agreement and use its reasonable endeavours to procure that the Paying
          Agents and the Registrar comply with and perform all their respective
          obligations thereunder and not make any amendment or modification to
          the Paying Agency Agreement without the prior written approval of the
          Trustee (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld).

          tax purposes in the jurisdiction of organization as a result of such
          transaction and shall be subject to income tax in such jurisdiction on
          the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would
          have been the case if such transaction had not occurred;

          (v) immediately following such transaction, no Default or Event of
     Default exists; and

          (vi) immediately following such transaction, the Issuer or the
     Surviving Entity, as the case may be, shall, on the date of such
     transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing
     transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable
     four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least(euro)1.00 of additional
     Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Coverage Ratio test set forth in
     the first paragraph of Section 4.10; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this clause
     shall not be applicable to (A) the merger of a Restricted Subsidiary with
     or into the Issuer, where the Issuer is the surviving company, or to the
     transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of a Restricted
     Subsidiary to the Issuer or (B) the merger of the Issuer with or into an
     Affiliate of the Issuer for the sole purpose of reincorporating the Issuer
     in another jurisdiction if, as a result of and giving effect to such
     reincorporation merger, the consolidated net worth of the surviving company
     is no less than the consolidated net worth of the Issuer immediately prior
     to the merger.

     In addition, the Issuer may not, directly or indirectly, lease all or
substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related
transactions, to any other Person.

Issuer in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof, the successor company formed by
such consolidation or into or with which the Issuer is merged or to which such
sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall
succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such
consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the
provisions of this Indenture referring to the "Issuer" shall refer instead to
the successor company of such entity), and may exercise every right and power of
the Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person

case of a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all of
the Issuer's assets that meets the requirements of Section 5.01 hereof.

guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) whether such
Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, if

premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace
period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a "PAYMENT
DEFAULT"); or (ii) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its

SECTION 6.02   ACCELERATION

     If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause
(h) of Section 6.01 hereof) with respect to the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25%
in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice in writing to the
Issuer may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon any
such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (h) of
Section 6.01 hereof occurs with respect to the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately without
further action or notice. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on
behalf of all of the Holders rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the
rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing
Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has
become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

                                       69
<PAGE>

SECTION 6.03   OTHER REMEDIES

     The Trustee may, at any time at its discretion and without further notice,
take such proceedings against the Issuer as it may think fit to enforce the
payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or accrued interest, Special
Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Notes, but it shall not be
bound to take any such proceedings or other action under or pursuant to this
Indenture (including declaring the notes to be immediately due and payable
following an Event of Default or exercising any remedy under the Pledge
Agreements with respect to the collateral securing the Notes), unless (i) it
shall have been so directed by the Holders of at least a majority of the
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and (ii) it shall have been
indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction.

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

SECTION 6.04   WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS

     The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes for
the time being outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may waive an
existing Default or Event of Default under this Indenture and its consequences.
The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that
the requisite percentage of Holders have consented to such waiver and attaching
copies of such consents.

     Notwithstanding the above, no such waiver by the Holders shall be effective
in relation to a Default in the payment of principal of or interest on any Note
as specified in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 6.01 or a Default in respect of
any term or provision of this Indenture that may not be amended or modified
without the consent of each Holder affected as provided in Section 9.02.

     The above paragraphs of this Section 6.04 shall be in lieu of
ss.316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA and such ss.316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA is hereby
expressly excluded from this Indenture and the Notes, as permitted by the TIA.

     Upon any such waiver by the Holders, such Default shall cease to exist and
be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default
arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred
for every purpose of this Indenture and the Notes, but no such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any
right consequent thereon.

SECTION 6.05   CONTROL BY MAJORITY

     Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising
any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred
on it, subject always to the provisions of Section 6.03 above. However, the
Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this
Indenture or the Pledge Agreements that the Trustee reasonably determines may be
materially prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may
involve the Trustee in personal Liability.

SECTION 6.06  LIMITATION ON SUITS

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

                                       70
<PAGE>

     (a) the Holder of a Note gives to the Trustee written notice of a
continuing Event of Default;

     (b) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

     (c) such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes offer and, if requested,
provide to the Trustee indemnity and/or security satisfactory to the Trustee
against any Liability;

     (d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after
receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of
indemnity and/or security; and

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

     A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of
another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another
Holder of a Note.

SECTION 6.07   RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF NOTES TO RECEIVE PAYMENT

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

SECTION 6.08   COLLECTION SUIT BY TRUSTEE

     If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal
of, premium, if any, and interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts,
if any, remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to
the extent lawful, interest and such other amounts as shall be sufficient to
cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

SECTION 6.09   TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM

     The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes
allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor
upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and
empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable
or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the
Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such
payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for
the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07
hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such
proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured
by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends,
money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to
receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of
reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to

                                       71
<PAGE>

authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of
any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to
vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 6.10   PRIORITIES

     All moneys received by the Trustee under this Indenture and the Pledge
Agreements (including any moneys which represent principal, premium or interest
in respect of Notes which have become void and including as a result of
enforcement of any of the Pledge Agreements) shall be held by the Trustee upon
trust to apply them (subject to Section 6.13 hereof):

          FIRST: in payment or satisfaction of all amounts then due and unpaid
     under Section 7.05 hereof to the Trustee (including remunerations, expenses
     and disbursements of, and all other liabilities incurred by, the Trustee,

     priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes

          THIRD: to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent
     jurisdiction shall direct.

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

SECTION 6.11   UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS

     In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture
or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a
Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant
in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its
discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
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 of a Note pursuant to
Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount
of the then outstanding Notes.

SECTION 6.12   PRESCRIPTION

     Claims against the Issuer for the payment of principal of, or premium,
interest, Special Interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Notes will
become void unless presentation for payment is made (where required by the
provisions of this Indenture) within a period of ten years, in the case of
principal, premium or Additional Amounts, if any, or five years, in the case of
interest or Special Interest, from the applicable original payment date
therefor.

SECTION 6.13   INVESTMENT BY TRUSTEE

     (a) If the amount of the moneys at any time available for the payment of
principal, premium, if any, interest, Special Interest and Additional Amounts,
if any, in respect of the Notes under Section 6.10 shall be less than 10% of the
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, the Trustee may at its
discretion invest such moneys in Cash Equivalents. The Trustee at its discretion
may vary such

                                       72
<PAGE>

investments and may accumulate such investments and the resulting income until
the accumulations, together with any other funds for the time being under the
control of the Trustee and available for such purpose, amount to at least 10% of
the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and then such accumulations
and funds shall be applied under Section 6.10.

     (b) Any moneys which under the trusts of this Indenture ought to or may be
invested in Cash Equivalents. If that bank or institution is the Trustee or a
subsidiary, holding or associated company of the Trustee, it need only account
for an amount of interest equal to the amount of interest which would, at then
current rates, be payable by it on such a deposit to an independent customer.
The Trustee may at any time vary any such investments for or into other
investments or convert any moneys so deposited into any other currency and shall
not be responsible for any loss resulting from any such investments or deposits,
whether due to depreciation in value, fluctuations in exchange rates or
otherwise.

     (c) The Issuer shall not be liable for any investments made by the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 6.13.

                                     TRUSTEE

SECTION 7.01   DUTIES OF TRUSTEE

     (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and
use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person
would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's
own affairs (subject always to overriding provisions of English law requiring
the Trustee to use a higher degree of care and skill at all times).

     (b) Nothing in this Indenture shall in any case in which the Trustee has
failed to show the degree of care and diligence required of it as trustee having
regard to the provisions of this Indenture conferring on it any trusts, powers,
authorities or discretions exempt the Trustee from or indemnify it against any
Liability for breach of trust, its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act or its own willful misconduct.

Trustee is subject to the provisions of this Section 7.01 and to the provisions
of the TIA.

discretions, authorities, rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or the
Pledge Agreements at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to
this Indenture unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee an
indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it against the losses, costs, charges,
expenses and other liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with
such request or direction.

SECTION 7.02   RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE

     Where there are any inconsistencies between the Trustee Acts and the
provisions of this Indenture the provisions of this Indenture shall, to the
extent allowed by law, prevail and, in the case of any such inconsistency with
the Trustee Act 2000, the provisions of this Indenture shall constitute a
restriction or exclusion for the purposes of that Act. The duty of care
contained in Section 1 of the Trustee Act 2000 shall not apply to this
Indenture. The Trustee shall have all the powers conferred upon trustees by the

wishes to be satisfied as to any fact or matter, it may require an Officers'

of Default under any of Sections 6.01(c) to 6.01(h) (both inclusive) hereof, of

faith.

     (g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or

it.

not be responsible for any Liability occasioned by so acting.

     (j) Any such advice, opinion or information may be sent or obtained by
letter, telex, telegram, facsimile transmission or cable and the Trustee shall
not be liable for acting in good faith on any advice, opinion or information
purporting to be conveyed by any such letter, telex, telegram, facsimile
transmission or cable although the same shall contain some error or shall not be
authentic.

     (k) The Trustee may call for and shall be at liberty to accept as
sufficient evidence of any fact or matter or the expediency of any transaction
or thing an Officers' Certificate and the Trustee shall not be bound in any such
case to call for further evidence or be responsible for any Liability that may
be occasioned by it or any other person acting on such certificate.

     (l) The Trustee shall be at liberty to hold this Indenture or the Pledge
Agreements and any other documents relating thereto or to the Pledge Agreements

delivery of any Global Note or Definitive Registered Note to the person(s)
entitled to it or them.

     (n) The Trustee shall not be bound to give notice to any person of the
execution of any documents comprised or referred to in this Indenture or to take
any steps to ascertain whether any Default or any Event of Default has happened
and, until it shall have actual knowledge or express notice pursuant to this
Indenture to the contrary, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that no
Default or Event of Default has happened and that the Issuer is observing and
performing all its obligations under this Indenture.

     (o) Save as expressly otherwise provided in this Indenture, the Trustee
shall have absolute and uncontrolled discretion as to the exercise or

responsible for any Liability which may result from their exercise or
non-exercise.

Indenture may be given retrospectively.

     (r) The Trustee shall not (unless and to the extent ordered so to do by a
court of competent jurisdiction) be required to disclose to any Holder any
information (including, without limitation, information of a confidential,
financial or price sensitive nature) made available to the Trustee by the Issuer
or any other person in connection with this Indenture and no Holder shall be
entitled to take any action to obtain from the Trustee any such information.

otherwise provided by these presents or required by law) be converted at such
rate or rates, in accordance with such method and as at such date for the
determination of such rate of exchange, as may be agreed by the Trustee in
consultation with the Issuer as relevant and any rate, method and date so agreed

     (t) The Trustee as between itself and the Holders may determine all
questions and doubts arising in relation to any of the provisions of this
Indenture. Every such determination, whether or not relating in whole or in part
to the acts or proceedings of the Trustee, shall be conclusive and shall bind
the Trustee and the Holders.

     (u) In connection with the exercise by it of any of its trusts, powers,
authorities and discretions under this Indenture (including, without limitation,
any modification, waiver, authorisation, determination or substitution), the
Trustee shall have regard to the general interests of the Holders as a class but
shall not have regard to any interests arising from circumstances particular to
individual Holders

                                       75
<PAGE>

(whatever their number) and, in particular but without limitation, shall not
have regard to the consequences of the exercise of its trusts, powers,
authorities and discretions for individual Holders (whatever their number)
resulting from their being for any purpose domiciled or resident in, or
otherwise connected with, or subject to the jurisdiction of, any particular
territory or any political sub-division thereof and the Trustee shall not be
entitled to require, nor shall any Holder be entitled to claim, from the Issuer,
the Trustee or any other person any indemnification or payment in respect of any
tax consequence of any such exercise upon individual Holders.

     (v) Any trustee of this Indenture being a lawyer, accountant, broker or
other person engaged in any profession or business shall be entitled to charge
and be paid all usual professional and other charges for business transacted and
acts done by him or his firm in connection with the trusts of this Indenture and
also his reasonable charges in addition to disbursements for all other work and
business done and all time spent by him or his firm in connection with matters
arising in connection with these presents.

     (w) The Trustee may whenever it thinks fit (after consultation with the
Issuer) delegate by power of attorney or otherwise to any person or persons or
fluctuating body of persons (whether being a joint trustee of these presents or
not) all or any of its trusts, powers, authorities and discretions under this
Indenture. Such delegation may be made upon such terms (including power to
sub-delegate) and subject to such conditions and regulations as the Trustee may
in the interests of the Holders think fit. Provided that the Trustee has
exercised reasonable care in the selection of such delegate the Trustee shall
not be under any obligation to supervise the proceedings or acts of any such
delegate or sub-delegate or be in any way responsible for any Liability incurred
by reason of any misconduct or default on the part of any such delegate or
sub-delegate. The Trustee shall within a reasonable time after any such
delegation or any renewal, extension or termination thereof give notice thereof
to the Issuer.

     (x) The Trustee may in the conduct of the trusts of this Indenture and/or
in relation to any action to be taken under the Pledge Agreements instead of
acting personally employ and pay an agent (whether being a lawyer or other
professional person) to transact or conduct, or concur in transacting or
conducting, any business and to do, or concur in doing, all acts required to be
done in connection with this Indenture (including the receipt and payment of
money). Provided that the Trustee has exercised reasonable care in the selection
of such agent the Trustee shall not be in any way responsible for any Liability
incurred by reason of any misconduct or default on the part of any such agent or
be bound to supervise the proceedings or acts of any such agent.

     (y) The Trustee shall not be responsible for the execution, delivery,
legality, effectiveness, adequacy, genuineness, validity, performance,
enforceability or admissibility in evidence of this Indenture or any Pledge
Agreement or any security constituted thereby or any other document relating or
expressed to be supplemental hereto and shall not be liable for any failure to
obtain any licence, consent or other authority for the execution, delivery,
legality, effectiveness, adequacy, genuineness, validity, performance,
enforceability or admissibility in evidence of this Indenture or any Pledge
Agreement or any security constituted thereby or any other document relating or
expressed to be supplemental hereto.

     (z) The Trustee may rely upon a report by the auditors of the Issuer
whether or not such report is addressed to the Trustee as to the amount of any
element or thing or defined term required to be calculated in connection with
any of the covenants contained in Article IV or Article V, as at any given time
or for any specified period, as applicable, or as to compliance by the Issuer
with any of such covenants, in which events such report shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

     (aa) The Trustee shall be at liberty to accept any certificate, report or
confirmation by such auditors or any other expert notwithstanding that it, or
the terms on which it was provided may contain a

                                       76
<PAGE>

limitation on the liability of the auditors or such other expert (whether in
time, quantum or otherwise) and the Trustee shall not incur any liability to any
Holders or any other person in connection with the acceptance by it of any such
certificate, report or confirmation.

     (bb) No purchaser, mortgagor, mortgagee, lender, debtor or other Person
dealing with the Trustee or with its or his attorney or agent shall be concerned
to enquire whether the security constituted by any of the Pledge Agreements has
become enforceable or whether any power exercised or purported to be exercised
thereunder has become exercisable or as to the propriety regularity or purpose
of the exercise of any power thereunder or whether any money remains due on such
security or as to the necessity or expediency of the stipulations and conditions
subject to which any sale shall be made or to see to the application of any
money paid to the Trustee or to any attorney or agent and in the absence of bad
faith on the part of such purchaser, mortgagor, lender, debtor or other Person
such dealing shall be deemed so far as regards his safety and protection to be
within the powers hereby conferred and to be valid and effectual accordingly and
the remedy of the Issuer and its assigns in respect of any impropriety or
irregularity whatsoever in the exercise of such powers shall be in damages only.

     (cc) The Trustee shall accept without investigation requisition or
objection such title as the Issuer may have to the Pledged Collateral and may
accept such title as the Issuer may have to any of the Pledged Collateral
hereafter charged and shall not be bound or concerned to examine or enquire into
nor be liable for any defect or failure in the title of the Issuer to any of the
Pledged Collateral owned by it or any part thereof whether such defect or
failure was known to the Trustee or might have been discovered upon examination
or enquiry and whether capable of remedy or not, but the Issuer shall
nevertheless observe any undertaking given with regard to any such titles.

SECTION 7.03  INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE

<PAGE>

     Where any holding company, Subsidiary or associated company of the Trustee
or any director or officer of the Trustee acting other than in his capacity as
such a director or officer has any information, the Trustee shall not thereby be
deemed also to have knowledge of such information and, unless it shall have
actual knowledge of such information, shall not be responsible for any loss
suffered by Holders resulting from the Trustee's failing to take such
information into account in acting or refraining from acting under or in
relation to these presents.

TIA ss.313(b), (c) and (d).

     A copy of each such report at the time of its mailing to the Holders shall

SECTION 7.05  REMUNERATION AND INDEMNITY

     (a) The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee remuneration for its services as
trustee as from the Issue Date, such remuneration to be at such rate and at such
time as may from time to time be agreed between the Issuer and the Trustee, the
first such payment to be made on the date hereof. Such remuneration shall accrue
from day to day and be payable (in priority to payments to the Holders) up to
and including the date when, all the Notes having become due for redemption, the
redemption moneys and interest thereon to the Redemption Date have been paid to
the Principal Paying Agent or the Trustee; PROVIDED THAT if upon due
presentation of any Note or any cheque payment of the moneys due in respect
thereof is improperly withheld or refused, remuneration shall commence again to
accrue at the rate which prevailed when the remuneration was last accruing.

     (b) In the event of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default or
the Trustee considering it expedient or necessary or being requested by the
Issuer to undertake duties which the Trustee and the Issuer agree to be of an
exceptional nature or otherwise outside the scope of the normal duties of the
Trustee under this Indenture the Issuer shall pay to the Trustee such additional
remuneration as shall be agreed between them.

     (c) The Issuer shall in addition pay to the Trustee an amount equal to the
amount of any value added tax or similar tax chargeable in respect of its
remuneration under this Indenture.

     (d) In the event of the Trustee and the Issuer failing to agree:

          (i) (in a case to which sub-clause (a) above applies) upon the amount
     of the remuneration; or

          (ii) (in a case to which sub-clause (b) above applies) upon whether
     such duties shall be of an exceptional nature or otherwise outside the
     scope of the normal duties of the Trustee under this Indenture, or upon
     such additional remuneration,

such matters shall be determined by a merchant or investment bank (acting as an
expert and not as an arbitrator) selected by the Trustee and approved by the
Issuer or, failing such approval, nominated (on the application of the Trustee)
by the President for the time being of The Law Society of England and Wales (the
expenses involved in such nomination and the fees of such merchant or investment
bank being equally payable by the Issuer and Trustee) and the determination of
any such merchant or investment bank shall be final and binding upon the Trustee
and the Issuer.

                                       78
<PAGE>

     (e) Without prejudice to the right of indemnity by law given to trustees,
the Issuer shall indemnify the Trustee and every Appointee and keep it or him
indemnified against all Liabilities to which it or he may be or become subject
or which may be properly incurred by it or him in the execution or purported
execution of any of its or his trusts, powers, authorities and discretions under
this Indenture or its or his functions under any such appointment or in respect
of any other matter or thing properly done or omitted in any way relating to
this Indenture or any Pledge Agreements any such appointment; provided, however,
the Issuer shall not indemnify the Trustee or any Appointee for any Liabilities
resulting from the Trustee's or such Appointee's willful misconduct, willful
default, negligence or bad faith.

     (f) All amounts payable pursuant to sub-clause (5) above shall be payable
by the Issuer on the date specified in a demand by the Trustee and in the case

Westminster Bank Plc from the date specified in such demand, and in all other
cases shall (if not paid on the date specified in such demand or, if later,
within seven days after such demand and, in either case, the Trustee so
requires) carry interest at such rate from the date specified in such demand.
All remuneration payable to the Trustee shall carry interest at such rate from
the due date therefor.

     (g) The indemnities in this Indenture constitute separate and independent
obligations from the other obligations in this Indenture, will give rise to
separate and independent causes of action, will apply irrespective of any
indulgence granted by the Trustee and/or any Holder and will continue in full
force and effect despite any judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated
sum or sums in respect of any sum due under this Indenture or the Notes, or any
other judgment or order. Any such loss as referred to in Section 12.08 shall be
deemed to constitute a loss suffered by the Trustee and the Holders and no proof
or evidence of any actual loss shall be required by the Issuer or its liquidator
or liquidators

SECTION 7.06  REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE

of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee. If no replacement Trustee has been appointed within 30 days of the
Trustee having resigned or the Trustee having received notification of its
removal, the Trustee may appoint a successor. The retirement or removal of any
Trustee shall not become effective until a successor Trustee is appointed.

     Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.06,
the Issuer's obligations under Section 7.05 shall continue for the benefit of
the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.08   ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION

     This Indenture shall always have a Trustee which shall be eligible to act
as Trustee under TIA Sections 310 (a) (2)(1), 310 (a) and 310 (a) (5). The
Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S. $50,000,000
as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. If the
Trustee has or shall acquire any "conflicting interest" within the meaning of
TIA Section 310 (b), the Trustee and the Issuer shall comply with the provisions
of TIA Section 310 (b) (subject to the penultimate paragraph thereof). If at any
time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of
this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect hereinbefore specified in this Article VII.

SECTION 7.09   PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST THE ISSUER

     The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311 (a), excluding any creditor

removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311 (a) to the extent indicated therein.

SECTION 7.10   SEPARATE AND CO-TRUSTEES

     Subject to the provisions of TIA Section 310(a)(3), the Trustee may, upon
giving prior notice to, and after consultation with, the Issuer (but without the
consent of the Issuer or the Holders), appoint any person established or
resident in any jurisdiction (whether a trust company or not) to act either as a
separate trustee or as a co-trustee jointly with the Trustee:

          (i) if the Trustee reasonably considers such appointment to be in the
     interests of the Holders;

          (ii) for the purposes of conforming to any legal requirements,
     restrictions or conditions in any jurisdiction in which any particular act
     or acts is or are to be performed; or

          (iii) for the purposes of obtaining a judgment in any jurisdiction or
     the enforcement in any jurisdiction of either a judgment already obtained
     or any of the provisions of this Indenture or any of the Pledge Agreements
     against the Issuer.

     The Issuer irrevocably appoints the Trustee to be its attorney in its name
and on its behalf to execute any such instrument of appointment. Such a person
shall (subject always to the provisions of this Indenture) have such trusts,
powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those conferred on the
Trustee by this Indenture) and such duties and obligations as shall be conferred
or imposed by the instrument of appointment. The Trustee shall have power in
like manner to remove any such person. Such reasonable remuneration as the
Trustee may pay to any such person, together with any attributable Liabilities
incurred by it in performing its function as such separate trustee or
co-trustee, shall for the purposes of this Indenture be treated as Liabilities
incurred by the Trustee.

SECTION 7.11   TRUSTEE'S POWERS TO BE ADDITIONAL

     The powers conferred upon the Trustee by this Indenture shall be in
addition to any powers which may from time to time be vested in the Trustee by
the general law or as a Holder of any of the Notes.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                    LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

SECTION 8.01   OPTION TO EFFECT LEGAL DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE

     The Issuer may, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a
resolution set forth in an Officers' Certificate, at any time, elect to have
either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon
compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article VIII.

SECTION 8.02   LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE

     Upon the exercise by Issuer under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuer shall, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have discharged
the obligations of the Issuer with respect to all outstanding Notes on the date
the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "LEGAL DEFEASANCE").
For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding
Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the
purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture
referred to in (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all its other
obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of
and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of Holders of
outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section
8.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of
the principal of, or premium, if any, interest and Special Interest and
Additional Amounts, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due; (ii) the
Issuer's obligations with respect to such Notes under Article II and Section
4.02 hereof; (iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the
Trustee hereunder and the Issuer's obligations in connection therewith; and (iv)
this Article VIII. Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Issuer may
exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise
of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.

SECTION 8.03   COVENANT DEFEASANCE

     Upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer shall, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from its
obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10,
4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18, 4.19, 4.20, 4.21, 4.22, 4.23, 4.24 and
4.25 and Section 5.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after
the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter,
"COVENANT DEFEASANCE"), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not
"outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration
or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such
covenants, but shall continue to be deemed "outstanding" for all other purposes
hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding
for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with
respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall
have no Liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in
any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference
elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such
covenant to any other provision herein or

                                       81
<PAGE>

in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default
or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified
above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected
thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of
the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(c) through
6.01(e) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default.

such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all
Liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money,
and all Liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required
to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be
published once, in a leading newspaper of general circulation in Luxembourg

                                       83

(which is expected to be the LUXEMBURGER WORT) and in the The Wall Street
Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that,
after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the
date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money
then remaining shall be repaid to the Issuer.

SECTION 8.07  REINSTATEMENT

     If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any non-callable
Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the
case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental
authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then
the Issuer's obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03
hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all
such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest or Special Interest or Additional Amounts, if any,
on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be
subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment
from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                        AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

SECTION 9.01  WITHOUT CONSENT OF HOLDERS OF NOTES

     Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Issuer and the Trustee
may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes or any of the Pledge
Agreements without the consent of any Holder of a Note:

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

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

     (c) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer's obligations to the
Holders of the Notes by a successor to the Issuer pursuant to Article V hereof;

     (d) to provide for the guarantee of the Issuer's obligations to the Holders
of the Notes or to provide for, and enter into agreements and instruments with
respect to, the pledge of, or the granting of a security interest in, additional
collateral to secure the Obligations hereunder;

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

     (f) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the
limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof.

     The request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of
Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of any documents described in Section
7.02 hereof which are requested by the Trustee, the Trustee shall join with the
Issuer in the execution of any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized or
permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate
agreements and stipulations that may be

                                       84
<PAGE>

therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such
amended or supplemental Indenture that affects its own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 9.02   WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS OF NOTES

     Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer may amend or
supplement this Indenture (including Sections 4.07 and 4.08 hereof), the Notes
and any of the Pledge Agreements with the consent of the Holders of at least a
majority in principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any)
then outstanding voting as a single class (including consents obtained in
connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the
Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or
Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest or Special Interest or Additional
Amounts, if any, on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an
acceleration that has been rescinded) or past, present or future compliance with
any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or any of the Pledge Agreements may
be waived by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class
(including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer
for, or purchase of, the Notes).

     With the consent of the Holders of at least 75% in principal amount of the
Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single
class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a
purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), the Issuer may amend
the indenture to modify Section 4.18.

     Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of
Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
Indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the
Trustee of the consent of, or waiver by, the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and
upon receipt by the Trustee of any documents described in Section 7.02 hereof
which are requested by the Trustee, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer in
the execution of a supplemental Indenture to give effect to the relevant
amendment or waiver unless such amendment or waiver directly affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in
which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to,
enter into such supplemental Indenture.

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

     After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes
effective, the Principal Paying Agent at the expense of the Issuer shall give to
the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment,
supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Principal Paying Agent to give such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect
the validity of any such supplemental Indenture or waiver. However, without the
consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02
may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

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

     (b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or
alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes
(other than the provisions under Sections 4.07 and 4.08);

                                       85
<PAGE>

     (c) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest,
including default interest, or Special Interest or Additional Amounts, if any,
on any Note;

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

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

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

     (g) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a
payment required by either Section 4.07 or 4.08 hereof); or

     (h) make any change in Section 6.04 or 6.07 hereof or in the foregoing
amendment and waiver provisions.

SECTION 9.03   COMPLIANCE WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT

     Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set
forth in a amended or supplemental Indenture that would comply with the TIA as
then in effect as if this Indenture were required to be qualified under the TIA.

SECTION 9.04   REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS

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

SECTION 9.05   NOTATION ON OR EXCHANGE OF NOTES

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

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

SECTION 9.06   TRUSTEE TO SIGN AMENDMENTS, ETC.

     Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, the Trustee shall sign any
amended or supplemental Indenture authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the
amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties,
liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuer may not sign an amendment
or supplemental Indenture until the Board of Directors approves it. In executing
any amended or

                                       86
<PAGE>

supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to
Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to
the other documents required by this Article IX and Section 12.04 hereof, an
Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of
such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this
Indenture.

     The due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes when
and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an Interest Payment Date,
at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest
on the overdue principal of and interest and Special Interest and Additional
Amounts, if any, on the Notes and performance of all other obligations of the
Issuer to the Holders of Notes or the Trustee under this Indenture and the
Notes, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder, are secured as provided
in the Pledge Agreements which the Issuer has entered into simultaneously with
the execution of this Indenture. Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance
thereof, consents and agrees to the terms of the Pledge Agreements (including,
without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of
Pledged Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to
time in accordance with its terms and authorizes and directs the Trustee to
enter into the Pledge Agreements and to perform its obligations and exercise its
rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Issuer shall deliver to the
Trustee copies of all documents delivered pursuant to the Pledge Agreements, and
shall do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be necessary or
proper, or as may be required by the provisions of the Pledge Agreements, to
assure and confirm to the Trustee the security interest in the Pledged
Collateral contemplated hereby and by the Pledge Agreements. The Issuer shall
take, and shall cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to take, upon request of the
Trustee, any and all actions reasonably required to cause the Pledge Agreements
to create and maintain, as security for the Obligations of the Issuer hereunder,
a valid and enforceable perfected Lien in and on all the Pledged Collateral in
favor of the Trustee for its benefit and for the benefit of the Holders of
Notes.

SECTION 10.02  RECORDING AND OPINIONS

     (a) The Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee on June 30 in each year
beginning with June 30, 2003, an Opinion of Counsel, dated as of such date,
either:

          (i) (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, action has been
     taken with respect to the recording, registering, filing, re-recording,
     re-registering and re-filing of all supplemental indentures, financing
     statements, continuation statements or other instruments of further
     assurance as is necessary to maintain the Lien of the Pledge Agreements,
     and (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, based on relevant
     laws as in effect on the date of such Opinion of Counsel, all filings have
     been made and all action has been taken that are necessary as of such date
     and during the succeeding 12 months fully to preserve and protect, to the
     extent such protection and preservation are possible by filing, the rights
     of the Holders of Notes and the Trustee hereunder and under the Pledge
     Agreements with respect to the security interests in the Pledged
     Collateral;

          (ii) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is
     necessary to maintain such Lien and assignment.

                                       87
<PAGE>

     (b) The Issuer shall otherwise comply with the provisions of TIA Section
314(b).

SECTION 10.03  RELEASE OF COLLATERAL

     (a) Pledged Collateral under the Pool Acquisition Pledge Agreement will be
released automatically upon the transfer of the Share Capital of Sanitec to the
Issuer and the pledge of such Share Capital under the Notes Security Pledge
Agreement and the perfection of such pledge.

     (b) Subject to subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 10.03, the Share
Capital of Sanitec shall be released from the Lien and security interest created
by the Notes Security Pledge Agreement to permit perfection of a priority Lien
over such Share Capital to the extent necessary to secure Indebtedness under
either the Credit Agreement or Indebtedness under any Credit Facility incurred
pursuant to clause (1) or (2) of the second paragraph of Section 4.10 hereof;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the Issuer immediately thereafter shall have the ability to,
and shall undertake to, grant a pledge of such Share Capital to the Trustee for
the benefit of the Holders having the same priority as, and on terms no less
favorable to the Holders than, the Lien and security interest in effect under
the Notes Security Pledge Agreement immediately prior to such release.

     (c) Subject to subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 10.03, Pledged
Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by the
Pledge Agreements at any time or from time to time in accordance with the
provisions of the Pledge Agreements or as provided hereby. In addition, upon the
request of the Issuer pursuant to an Officers' Certificate certifying that all
conditions precedent hereunder have been met and stating whether or not such
release is in connection with an Asset Sale and (at the sole cost and expense of
the Issuer) the Trustee shall release Pledged Collateral that is sold, conveyed
or disposed of in compliance with the provisions of this Indenture; PROVIDED,
that if such sale, conveyance or disposition constitutes an Asset Sale, the
Issuer shall apply the Net Proceeds in accordance with Section 4.08 hereof.

     (d) At any time when a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and the maturity of the Notes has been accelerated (whether by
declaration or otherwise), no further release of Pledged Collateral pursuant to
the provisions of the Pledge Agreements shall be effective as against the
Holders of Notes.

     (e) The release of any Pledged Collateral from the terms of this Indenture
and the Pledge Agreements shall not be deemed to impair the security under this
Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the
Pledged Collateral is released pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreements.
To the extent applicable, the Issuer shall cause TIA Section 313(b), relating to
reports, and TIA Section 314(d), relating to the release of property or
securities from the Lien and security interest of the Pledge Agreements and
relating to the substitution therefor of any property or securities to be
subjected to the Lien and security interest of the Pledge Agreements, to be
complied with. Any certificate or opinion required by TIA Section 314(d) may be
made by an Officer of the Issuer except in cases where TIA Section 314(d)
requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person,
which Person shall be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert
selected or approved by the Trustee and the Trustee in the exercise of
reasonable care.

SECTION 10.04   CERTIFICATES OF THE ISSUER

     The Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee and the Trustee, prior to each
proposed release of Pledged Collateral pursuant to the Pledge Agreements:

          (i) all documents required by TIA Section 314(d) to the extent
     applicable; and

                                       88
<PAGE>

          (ii) an Opinion of Counsel, which may be rendered by internal counsel
     to the Issuer, to the effect that such accompanying documents constitute
     all documents required by TIA ss.314(d) to the extent applicable.

     The Trustee may, to the extent permitted by Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof,
accept as conclusive evidence of compliance with the foregoing provisions the
appropriate statements contained in such documents and such Opinion of Counsel.

SECTION 10.05  CERTIFICATES OF THE TRUSTEE

     In the event that the Issuer wishes to release Pledged Collateral in
accordance with the Pledge Agreements and has delivered the certificates and
documents required by the Pledge Agreements and Sections 10.03 and 10.04 hereof,
the Trustee shall determine whether it has received all documentation required
by TIA Section 314(d) to the extent applicable in connection with such release
and, based on such determination and the Opinion of Counsel delivered pursuant
to Section 10.04(2), shall deliver a certificate to the Trustee setting forth
such determination.

SECTION 10.06  ACTIONS UNDER THE PLEDGE AGREEMENTS

     Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and 7.02 hereof, the Trustee may,
in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders of Notes, direct,
on behalf of the Holders of Notes, all actions it deems necessary or appropriate
in order to enforce any of the terms of the Pledge Agreements and to collect and
receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Obligations of the Issuer
hereunder.

     The Trustee shall have power to institute and maintain such suits and
proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Pledged
Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of the Pledge
Agreements or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee may
deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the
Holders of Notes in the Pledged Collateral (including power to institute and
maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with
any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be
unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with,
such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest hereunder or be
prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of Notes or of the Trustee).

SECTION 10.07  RECEIPT OF FUNDS UNDER THE PLEDGE AGREEMENTS

     The Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the
Holders of Notes distributed under the Pledge Agreements, and to make further
distributions of such funds to the Holders of Notes according to the provisions
of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.08  TERMINATION OF SECURITY INTEREST

     Upon the payment in full of all Obligations of the Issuer under this
Indenture and the Notes, or upon Legal Defeasance, the Trustee shall, at the
request of the Issuer, deliver a certificate to the Trustee stating that such

SECTION 11.01  SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

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

          (i) either:

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

               (B) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for
          cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a
          notice of redemption or otherwise or shall become due and payable
          within one year and the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to
          be irrevocably deposited with the Principal Paying Agent as trust
          funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash denominated
          in Euros, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination
          thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient without consideration
          of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire
          indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Principal Paying Agent
          for cancellation for principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if
          any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;

          (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
     continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such
     deposit and such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or
     constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Issuer or any
     Subsidiary of the Issuer is a party or by which any Restricted Subsidiary
     of the Issuer is bound;

Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 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
Issuer's obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01; PROVIDED
that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive
such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or such
Paying Agent.

Paying Agent at the expense of the Issuer shall, at least 30 but not more than
60 days before the relevant Redemption Date, mail by first-class mail to the

each redemption. In addition, so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg
Stock Exchange, the Issuer shall notify, or cause to be notified, such stock
exchange of each redemption of Notes made pursuant to this Indenture.

above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee

notice or communication to Indirect Participants, it will mail a copy to the
Trustee and each Agent at the same time.

     The Issuer shall indemnify the Holders against any loss incurred, as a
result of any judgment or award in connection with the Notes, Indenture being

continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order.

SECTION 12.10  SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT FOR SERVICE

extent permitted by applicable law, irrevocably and fully waives the defense of
an inconvenient forum or inappropriate forum to the maintenance of such suit or
proceeding and hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Twyford Bathrooms (the
"AUTHORIZED AGENT"), as its authorized agent upon whom process may be served in
any such suit or proceeding. The Issuer represents that it has notified the
Authorized Agent of such designation and appointment and that the Authorized
Agent has accepted the same in writing. The Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes
and directs its Authorized Agent to accept such service. The Issuer further
agrees that service of process upon its Authorized Agent and written notice of
said service to the Issuer mailed by first class mail or delivered to its
Authorized Agent shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process
upon the Issuer in any such suit or proceeding. Nothing herein shall affect the
right of any person to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The
Issuer agrees that a final action in any such suit or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or
in any other lawful manner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action against
the Issuer arising out of or based on this Indenture or the transactions
contemplated hereby may also be instituted in any competent court in the Grand
Duchy of Luxembourg and the Issuer expressly accepts the jurisdiction of any
such court in any such action. The Issuer hereby irrevocably waives, to the
extent permitted by law, any immunity to jurisdiction to which it may otherwise
be entitled (including, without limitation, immunity to pre-judgment attachment,
post-judgment attachment and execution) in any legal suit, action or proceeding
against it arising out of or based on this Indenture, the Notes or the
transactions contemplated hereby. The provisions of this Section 12.10 are
intended to be effective upon the execution of this Indenture and the Notes

Business Day (each, an "INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"). Interest on the Notes shall
accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; PROVIDED that if there is no
existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated
between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest
Payment Date; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be
November 15, 2002. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and
premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in
excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue
installments of interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts (without
regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same
rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.

     2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes (except
defaulted interest) and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the
Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on May 1 or
November 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are
canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date,
except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted
interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and
interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, at the office or
agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within or, at the option of the
Issuer, payment of interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any,
may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the
register of Holders, and PROVIDED that payment by wire transfer of immediately
available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, premium, if any,

Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer
instructions to the Issuer or the Principal Paying Agent. Such payment shall be

May 7, 2002 ("INDENTURE") between the Issuer and the Trustee. The terms of the
Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture
by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code ss.ss.
77aaa-77bbbb) as if the Indenture was required to be qualified under such act.
The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the
Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any
provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture,
the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

Public Equity Offering.

Amounts, if any, to the Redemption Date, if the Issuer has become, or would
become, obligated to pay, on the next Interest Payment Date, any Additional
Amounts as a result of change in law (including any regulations promulgated
thereunder) or in the interpretation or administration thereof, if such change
is announced and becomes effective on or after the Issue Date. Notice of any
such redemption must be given within 60 days of the earlier of the announcement

purchase price equal to 101.0% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any,

Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding

any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the
Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an
Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all
outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice.
Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the
Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of
any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of
any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default
relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on
behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of
Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or
Event of Default in the payment of interest or Special Interest or Additional
Amounts on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Issuer is required to deliver to
the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and
the Issuer is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default,
to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of
Default.

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

     14. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, of the Issuer as such, shall not
have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer under the Notes or the
Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

     15. AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the
manual signature of the Principal Paying Agent or an authenticating agent.

     16. ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a

                            9% Senior Notes due 2012

     [INSERT THE 144A LEGEND, IF APPLICABLE PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE
INDENTURE]

     [INSERT THE REGULATION S LEGEND, IF APPLICABLE PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS
OF THE INDENTURE]

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

     1. INTEREST. Sanitec International S.A., a company organized under the

principal amount of this Note at 9% per annum from the date of issue until
maturity and shall pay Special Interest under the Registration Rights Agreement
and Additional Amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.24 of the Indenture
referred to below. The Issuer shall pay interest and Special Interest and
Additional Amounts, if any, semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15
of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding
Business Day (each, an "INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"). Interest on the Notes shall
accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; PROVIDED that if there is no
existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated
between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest
Payment Date; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be
November 15, 2002. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and
premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in
excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue
installments of interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts (without
regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same
rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.

     2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes (except
defaulted interest) and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the
Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on May 1 or
November 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are
canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date,
except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted
interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and
interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, at the office or
agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within or, at the option of the
Issuer, payment of interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any,
may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the
register of Holders, and PROVIDED that payment by wire transfer of immediately
available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, premium, if any,
and interest and Special Interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on, all Global
Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer
instructions to the Issuer or the Principal Paying Agent. Such payment shall be
in Euros.

     3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York shall act as

     4. INDENTURE. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of
May 7, 2002 ("INDENTURE") between the Issuer and the Trustee. The terms of the
Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture
by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as

                                      B-2
<PAGE>

amended (15 U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) as if the Indenture was required to
be qualified under such act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and
Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such
terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express
provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be
controlling.

Amounts, if any, to the Redemption Date, if the Issuer has become, or would
become, obligated to pay, on the next Interest Payment Date, any Additional

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

Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the
Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding

or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived
with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes and Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class.

the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially
all of the Parent's assets, to make any change that would provide any additional
rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect
the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, to provide for the
Issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the
Indenture.

Indenture or the Notes or the Notes Security Pledge Agreement; (v) default by
the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under certain other agreements
relating to Indebtedness of the Issuer which default results in the acceleration

determination by any court of competent jurisdiction that any provision of the
Notes Security Pledge Agreement is unenforceable against the Issuer for any

Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all
outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice.
Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the
Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of
any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of
any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default
relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on
behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of
Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or
Event of Default in the payment of interest or Special Interest or Additional
Amounts on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Issuer is required to deliver to
the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and
the Issuer is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default,
to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of
Default.

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

     14. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, of the Issuer as such, shall not
have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer under the Notes or the
Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

     15. AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the
manual signature of the Principal Paying Agent or an authenticating agent.

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

     17. COMMON CODE AND ISIN. The Issuer has caused Common Codes and ISINs to
be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use Common Code or ISIN numbers in
notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as
to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained
in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers placed thereon.
