Technologies Inc., organized under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, with a
business address at 1166 Alberni St, Suite 201 Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6E3Z3
("telQuest Technologies Inc.") (collectively "Parties" or individually a
"Party").

          WHEREAS, telQuest Technologies Inc. is a

          WHEREAS, EffectNet is a unified communications application service
provider that offers private label Internet and telecommunications products and
services, including unified communications and other value-added services,
in-house customer services, billing and technical support (the "EffectNet
Services").

          WHEREAS, EffectNet desires to provide telQuest with a customized
telQuest.-branded wholesale communications service ("Private Label") for sale by
telQuest (the services collectively hereinafter described as "telQuest UC
Services" or "UC Services"); and

                  WHEREAS, EffectNet and telQuest recognize that the telQuest UC
Service they jointly work to, market and manage is a highly innovative service
requiring Parties to closely work together to meet telQuest Customer needs,
implement and ensure the commercial viability of the telQuest UC Services; and,

          NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements
contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which the Parties acknowledge, the Parties agree as
follows:

     1.   GENERAL PROVISIONS.

     1.1  Both Parties agree that EffectNet shall offer telQuest UC Services for
          telQuest as described in this Agreement. telQuest will market the UC
          Services to telQuest customers and end-users. For purposes of this
          Agreement, the term "customers" shall include, but not be limited to
          wholesale and retail customers of telQuest UC Services.

          1.2 EffectNet may make changes to the EffectNet Services from time to
     time in order to improve, modify or extend the EffectNet Services
     ("EffectNet Changes"), but in no event shall such changes materially

     EffectNet will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide telQuest with
     notice ninety (90) days in advance of the commercial release date of such
     changes. In the event that said improvements or modifications require a
     change in pricing, both parties agree to use best efforts to renegotiate
     pricing in a timely manner.

          1.3 The Parties shall use their best efforts to accomplish the initial
     launch of the telQuest UC Services ("Initial Launch Date") by January 1st ,
     2000.

          1.4 Each Party shall promptly notify the other in writing of any
     event, which might result in such Party's inability to continue to meet its
     obligations under this Agreement. Such even shall specifically include, but
     not be limited to, a materially adverse change in a Party's financial
     situation.

     2.   OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES.

          2.1  Product Coordinator: EffectNet and telQuest will each designate
     their own Product Coordinator to coordinate the process described below.

               2.1.1 The designated Product Coordinators will be the principal
          points of contact between the parties on product issues (the "Product
          Advisory Process"). Each party may rely on the authority and technical
          competence of the other Party's Product Coordinator to represent its
          respective company in connection with the priorities, needs and
          progress of their company's product issues.

               2.1.2 The Product Advisory Process will include
          in-person/telephonic/electronic communication between representatives,
          which should be ongoing, or occur not less than once a month.

               2.1.3 The EffectNet Product Coordinator will be solely
          responsible for all final decisions for EffectNet Services.

          2.2  EffectNet Materials. EffectNet will provide telQuest with regular
     access to and copies of the following:

               2.2.1 Plans for current and future enhancements to the EffectNet
          services which by their nature apply to the telQuest Services; and

               2.2.2 Functional descriptions, development plans, schedules and
          periodic status for enhancements to the EffectNet Services under
          development, as soon as such materials exist.

          2.3 Product Development. telQuest and EffectNet agree that the
     EffectNet Services provided to telQuest will be the same version of the
     EffectNet Services generally made commercially available, unless telQuest
     "****", provided, however, that EffectNet shall have no obligation to
     support telQuest modification not previously agreed to by EffectNet.
     telQuest customers will need ample time to integrate new versions into
     daily use.

               2.3.1 telQuest will implement new versions within 30 days with
          call avoidance measures built into the process, including but not
          limited to adequate customer notification of new features, benefits
          and the availability of training timed to coincide with the release of
          any new versions.

               2.3.2 EffectNet will use commercially reasonable efforts to
          provide telQuest with at least ninety (90) days advance notice of an
          expected new release or version of EffectNet Services.

          2.4 Forecasts. telQuest shall provide EffectNet with forecasts for
     expected mailbox activations, at minimum of sixty (60) day intervals.
     telQuest will also provide EffectNet with quarterly and annual forecasts of
     expected mailbox activations, with the availability of platform capacity to
     be provided by EffectNet to telQuest conditioned on the platform capacity
     demand not exceeding the forecasts provided by telQuest for any period
     addressed by such respective forecast. With respect to timely provided
     sixty (60) day forecasts only, EffectNet will use reasonable efforts to
     meet telQuest's forecast demand. However, EffectNet reserves the right to
     request additional guarantees from telQuest when the forecasts provided by
     telQuest require significant or unusual capital and cost by EffectNet.
     telQuest is to provide the first such forecasts to EffectNet prior to this
     General Agreement coming into effect. For purposes of this section
     EffectNet must allocate constrained capacity to telQuest on terms at least
     as favorable as offered to other customers of EffectNet. In the event that
     EffectNet declines orders because of capacity constraints, then EffectNet
     shall notify telQuest and the Parties shall use commercially reasonable
     efforts to develop a solution that will provide telQuest with a method of
     ensuring that the needs of telQuest's existing and potential end users are
     met while ensuring that EffectNet is permitted to increase capacity in an
     orderly fashion.

          2.5 Billing Cycle. On an every 30-day basis EffectNet will invoice
     telQuest for account fees for each account active during the previous
     month. telQuest will be charged a daily pro rated amount for start-up and
     terminated accounts.

          2.6 Payment. telQuest will pay EffectNet in then available U.S. funds
     on a net-7 day basis. EffectNet may attach penalties for late payment.

          2.7 Call Detail Records for Billing. Each day, EffectNet will provide
     to telQuest Calling Detail Records ("CDR") on a timely basis, in a mutually
     agreed-upon electronic format.

          2.8 Billings and Collections. telQuest shall be responsible, at its
     sole expense, for all invoicing and collections with its customers,
     end-users, agents, subagents or resellers. EffectNet will not be
     responsible for any collections or bad debt by telQuest's customers,
     end-users, agents, subagents or resellers.

          2.9 Fraud. telQuest will be solely responsible for fraudulent misuse
     of (a) United States and Canadian UC Services due to credit fraud,
     fraudulently established accounts, stolen accounts, and (b) all other
     accounts provided to any customers located outside the United States and
     Canada, regardless of the method of fraud. EffectNet shall notify telQuest
     of fraud as soon as practicable, upon EffectNet's becoming aware of such
     fraud. EffectNet will use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with
     telQuest to arrive at fraud control means and measures.

          2.10 Customer Service Call Center and Technical Support. EffectNet
     shall maintain a customer service call center for its telQuest customers
     and end-users, as appropriate. This call center will be responsible for all
     customer support.

               2.10.1 Call items outside the scope of EffectNet support services
          are: non-EffectNet related software problems, call forwarding issues,
          non-EffectNet related product inquiries, as well as non-EffectNet
          related billing issues e.g. credit card problems.

          2.11 Customer Fulfillment Process. telQuest, when taking orders for
     new customers or end users, or taking orders to modify or update a
     customer's order, will use the EffectNet Customer Fulfillment Process or
     compatible process to gather the information required and to provide the
     customer information to EffectNet. telQuest is responsible for providing to
     EffectNet such new mailbox account information reasonably required by
     EffectNet in order to activate a new mailbox. EffectNet shall provide
     documentation and training, in accordance with the training provision of
     this Agreement, to telQuest on the EffectNet Customer Fulfillment Process.

          2.12 Minimum Commitment. telQuest hereby agrees to deliver a minimum
     "****" then current active Subscribers on or before three (3) months after
     the Launch Date (Ramp Date); and an additional "****" then current active
     Subscribers on or before six (6) months after the Launch Date (Ramp Date);
     and and additional "****" then current active Subscribers on or before nine
     (9) months after the Launch Date (Ramp Date). telQuest shall maintain
     "****" current active Subscribers at the end of each calendar month
     thereafter (the "minimum commitment") for the term of the agreement.
     Minimum Commitment levels shall relate to the CommuniKate "unlimited"
     pricing account equaling one (1) Subscriber. Two (2) "Basic" priced
     accounts shall be equal to one (1) Subscriber and three (3) "Special"
     accounts shall be equal to one (1) Subscriber in relation to contribution
     towards the "minimum commitment".

          2.13 Reconciliation Payment. On the Ramp Dates and at the end of each
     calendar month thereafter, EffectNet will calculate telQuest actual number
     of then current active Subscribers on the last day of such calendar month
     and compare it to the Minimum Commitment. If telQuest does not meet or
     exceed the Minimum Commitment for the month in question, telQuest will have
     a Volume Shortfall, and telQuest shall pay EffectNet a Reconciliation
     Payment associated with that Volume Shortfall. Each month is measured
     independently; there is no carry back or forward of surpluses or
     deficiencies. The Reconciliation Payment is equal to the Volume Shortfall
     multiplied by the base monthly price applicable to the UC Service per
     Subscriber, based on a total number of Subscribers equal to the Minimum
     Commitment level (the Base Monthly Fee).

     3.   MARKETING AND BRANDING.

          3.1 Web Presence. At no additional charge, EffectNet will provide
     telQuest with a private label website, URL links and related branding as
     reasonably directed by telQuest.

          3.2 Use of Trademarks, Service Marks and Trade names. The Parties
     agree not to display or use any of the trade names, service marks, brands
     or trademarks of the other Party, and shall not permit the same to be
     displayed or used by third parties, other than in connection with the sale,
     distribution or promotion of the brand(s) used for the telQuest UC Services
     covered by this Agreement and subject to the prior written approval of the
     other or a third Party owning such trademark, service mark or trade name
     (except where such approval between the Parties is contained in this
     Agreement). In the absence of specific prior written consent from the other
     Party, a Party shall not use any part of any of the other Party's trade
     names, service marks, brands or trademarks as part of its own name, service
     marks or trademarks or in any other manner not so approved by the other
     Party. It is expressly understood by both Parties that trade names, service
     marks and trademarks of the other party are proprietary and that nothing in
     this Agreement constitutes the grant of a

                                     Page 54
                                    10/11/00

<PAGE>

     general license to use said trade names, service marks and trademarks. Upon
     termination of this Agreement, any and all rights or privileges of a Party
     to use the other Party's trade names, service marks, brands or trademarks
     shall expire, and each Party shall discontinue the use of the other Party's
     trade names, service marks, brands. The provisions of this section shall
     also apply to third party branding incidental to this Agreement.

          3.3 Business Conduct. In conformity with this Agreement, neither party
     shall make any representation with respect to the other party that is
     inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

          3.4 telQuest Marketing Expenses. telQuest as the buyer of the
     wholesale services from EffectNet, is responsible for all expenses and
     obligations incurred by telQuest as a result of its efforts to attract and
     solicit customers for telQuest UC Services. telQuest expressly acknowledges
     that it is not entitled to any reimbursement by EffectNet for such expenses
     unless, and only to the extent that, both parties hereto agree in writing
     prior to the incursion of such expenses, as set forth in this agreement.

     4.   CHARGES AND BILLING STATEMENTS.

          4.1  Traffic- or usage-sensitive rates shall be computed in "****"
     increments "Special" priced accounts, and at "****" increments for all
     other accounts.

          4.2  telQuest shall be responsible for all applicable taxes, including
     but not limited to sales or valued-added taxes, utility or excise taxes,
     fees and/or surcharges that are imposed by federal, state, or local
     governments on the telQuest UC Services or business generated by telQuest
     through the sale of telQuest UC Services as a result of long distance or
     services bundled within the telQuest UC Services. telQuest shall pay or
     reimburse EffectNet for all taxes collected or imposed on these services
     provided by EffectNet. The Prices quotes in the following sections are
     exclusive of any and all taxes. Excluded from this responsibility are taxes
     from EffectNet net income. EffectNet shall comply with all federal and
     state regulations with respect to employee withholding taxes.

          4.3  Pricing. Pricing shall be as indicated by Appendix "P" attached
     hereto.

          4.4  Seven (7) working days post the close of the month, EffectNet
     shall provide to telQuest a settlement statement ("Settlement Statement")
     providing a summary of charges for the previous month's billing cycle in an
     industry standard format. The settlement statement, unless specified
     elsewhere in this Agreement, shall contain the following:

               4.4.1 A listing of monthly recurring charges for the current or
          prior month's billing cycle.

               4.4.2 For calls or traffic originated by telQuest or any
          customers, agents, sub-agents and/or end-users during the previous
          month, the individual call detail and the aggregate usage charge
          payable broken down by termination location.

               4.4.3 For calls or traffic terminated by telQuest or any

          and/or end-users during the previous month, the individual call detail
          and the aggregate usage charge payable broken down by termination
          location.

               4.4.4 Any taxes, fees and/or charges that are imposed by federal,
          state, and/or local governments.

               4.4.5 The net amount payable by telQuest to EffectNet or payable

               4.4.6 When applicable, any mutually negotiated additional fees.

          4.5 Payment of the Settlement Statement shall be made within seven (7)
     calendar days after the Settlement Statement and invoice were sent (the
     "Due Date"). Payments to EffectNet shall be in United States dollars and
     are to be made via wire transfer for credit to an account of EffectNet to
     be determined by EffectNet and provided to telQuest within three (3) days
     of the date of execution of this Agreement by the later signing party. If
     payment is not received by the Due Date, a late fee of the lesser of (a)
     one and one-half (1 1/2) percent per month or (b) the maximum percentage
     permitted by law shall be assessed on the delinquent balance of undisputed
     usage not paid by the Due Date.

               4.5.1 Deposit. telQuest will provide EffectNet with a deposit
          upon execution of this agreement in the amount of "****". In the event
          that active UC Services are not available to telQuest, by fault of
          EffectNet for at least "****" Subscribers on the Initial Launch Date,
          (i) the deposit will be immediately refunded to telQuest; (ii)
          telQuest shall not be obligated to deliver deposit hereunder until
          such time as active UC Services are available for at least "****". At
          each month end, telQuest and EffectNet shall adjust the deposit so
          that it equals $"****" for each "****" active Subscribers at that time
          (the number of Subscribers being calculated in accordance with section
          2.12). telQuest shall deliver any shortfall in the deposit required to
          EffectNet within three (3) business days of adjustment. In any event,
          the telQuest's deposit shall not exceed "****" dollars.

               4.5.2 In the event that payment is received late for two (2)
          consecutive months, telQuest shall furnish to EffectNet a deposit
          ("Late Payment Deposit") equal to one half (1/2) of the previous
          month's billing. The Late Payment Deposit shall provide for security
          and will be made within five (5) days of request the EffectNet.
          telQuest's failure to make deposit of any additional funds called for
          in this paragraph within the timeframe specified, or to pay the
          required shortfall within five (5) days after the issuance of a
          statement of shortfall, shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement.
          EffectNet will retain the late payment deposit until such time that
          telQuest has demonstrated six (6) consecutive months of on-time
          payment history. After said period, the late payment deposit shall be
          refunded or applied as a credit.

               4.5.3 In the event that telQuest disputes any charge assessed by
          EffectNet, the Parties agree to cooperate to resolve the dispute at
          the earliest practicable date. The late charges set forth in Section
          of this Agreement shall not apply to payments that are the subject of
          a good faith dispute between EffectNet and telQuest. If there is a
          good faith dispute, EffectNet cannot demand a late payment deposit.

     5.   TERM AND TERMINATION.

          5.1 Term. Unless otherwise terminated as provided herein, this
     Agreement shall be in force for an initial term of five years after the
     Effective Date (the "Initial Term). Absent 90 day written notice prior to
     the end of the term of intent to discontinue parties' relationship this
     agreement shall continue automatically for successive one year terms under
     the same terms and conditions contained herein together with any subsequent
     amendments hereto.

          5.2 Termination. Either Party may terminate this Agreement: (a) if the
     other Party fails to fulfill any of its material obligations under this
     Agreement; (b) if the other Party is in breach of Section 7
     (Confidentiality); (c) if the other Party becomes insolvent or admits in
     writing its inability to pay debts as they mature, or makes an assignment
     for the benefit of creditors; or (d) if a petition under any foreign, state
     or United States bankruptcy act, receivership statute, or the like is filed
     by the other Party and is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after such
     filing. Termination due to default under this Section shall be effective
     thirty (30) days after written notice to the defaulting Party if the
     default has not been cured within such thirty (30) day period.

          5.3 Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement for any
     reason, each Party shall remain liable for those obligations that accrued
     prior to the date of such termination; provided, however, that nothing
     herein shall be construed to obligate EffectNet to offer Services to
     telQuest after the termination of this Agreement.

          5.4 Early Termination. If prior to the end of the Initial Term this
     Agreement is terminated for any reason by telQuest other than if EffectNet
     fails to fulfill any of its material obligations under this Agreement then,
     telQuest shall pay EffectNet a one-time early termination dollar fee equal
     to the amount of the unfulfilled obligation to be calculated by the number
     of Minimum Commitment accounts or then active subscribers (as outlined in
     section 2.12) multiplied by the lessor of 9 months or the remaining months
     of the contract multiplied by the hereinabove agreed price per account.

termination, for any reason, of this Agreement: (Subscriber Information),

(Warranties); (Intellectual Property); (Indemnification); (Limitation of

     the other party only for the purposes of analyzing the business arrangement

("EffectNet") and Verb Exchange, Inc. (formerly, telQuest Technologies, Inc.)

amended, to the extent specifically set forth below and neither Party shall be
deemed to hereby waive compliance by the other Party of any covenant, obligation
or condition contained therein. Any capitalized terms not specifically defined
in the Second Amendment shall have the same meaning as defined in the Agreement.

The Agreement, as previously amended, is modified as follows:

1.   Delete SECTION 1.1 and add the following as the new SECTION 1.1:

     1.1 Verbx hereby appoints EffectNet as its sole and exclusive provider of
     UC Services to Verbx and its customers and end users. During the Term of

     than existing excluding current and future development of the Verbx
     MyMessenger and Echo platform to the extent that they, or either of them,
     do not directly compete with the UC Services. Verbx represents and warrants
     that it is not as of the Effective Date developing, distributing, selling,
     licensing or marketing goods, products or services that compete with the UC
     Services, other than the Verbx MyMessenger and Echo platform as limited
     above. For purposes of this Agreement, the word "customers" when used in

     ------------

     1.3 The Parties shall use their best efforts to launch the commercial sales
     and marketing by Verbx of the UC Services on or before November 1, 2001
     (the "Initial Launch Date").

3.   Delete SECTION 2.3 and add the following as the new SECTION 2.3:

     2.3 Product Development. The Parties agree that the UC Service shall be
     upgraded for new Releases and Versions of the EffectNet Service as
     commercially made available by EffectNet and as further provided by this
     Section 2.3.

          2.3.1 Upon at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Verbx,
          (which written notice is to include a reasonable description of new
          features, functionality, fixes, etc.), EffectNet shall have the right
          to place new Releases into commercial service under the UC Service
          brand. New Releases shall be incorporated into the UC Service brand at
          no additional charge. "Release" shall mean a modification to the UC
          Service usually intended to correct Errors (as defined at Section 3.3)
          and that may not include additional features, levels of performance or
          functionalities. Typically, a Release is identified by the numeral(s)
          one or more places from the left of the designation for such Release
          with a newer Release having the larger numeral.

          2.3.2 Upon at least ninety (90) days prior written notice to Verbx,
          (which written notice is to include a reasonable description of new
          features, functionality, fixes, etc.), EffectNet shall have the right
          to place new Versions into commercial service under the UC Service
          brand. New Versions shall be incorporated into the UC Service brand at
          such additional charge(s) as EffectNet shall include in its written
          notice to Verbx announcing the new Version. "Version" means a new
          version of the UC Service that contains a significant new
          functionality or level of performance or features. Typically, a
          Version is identified by the numeral(s) one or more places from the
          left of the first decimal point from the left in the designation with
          the newer Version having the larger numeral.

          2.3.3 EffectNet shall promptly notify Verbx of updates containing
          modifications, enhancements, extensions and corrections related to
          Errors. "Error" means any failure of the UC Service to conform in

     CONFIDENTIAL
     ------------

          all material respects to the specifications therefor, other than any
          nonconformity resulting from end user misuse, improper use, alteration
          or damage to the UC Service or the combining or merging of the UC
          Service with any hardware or software not supplied or identified as
          compatible by EffectNet or the failure by Verbx to produce and deliver
          accurate fulfillment materials and supplemental amendments thereto.
          EffectNet shall follow its standard procedures in the classification
          and response to Errors. EffectNet shall use commercially reasonable
          efforts in the application of such procedures to correct all Errors,
          taking into account the severity of the Error and the seriousness of
          its impact, if any, on end users. Verbx shall promptly notify
          EffectNet of any reports of Errors received by Verbx from its
          customers or end users.

4.   Delete SECTION 2.9 and add the following as the new SECTION 2.9:

     2.9 Fraud. Verbx assumes only the risk of liability associated with fraud
     arising from end users' use of the UC Services, and only in the event that
     EffectNet has provided daily call detail in accordance with Section 2.7
     above. In such event, Verbx will defend and hold EffectNet harmless from
     any and all claims arising therefrom. In the event that EffectNet has

     (b)  FORM OF NOTES. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in
the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon
and the "Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note" attached

terminated upon the receipt by the Trustee of (i) a written certificate from the
Depositary, together with copies of certificates from Euroclear and Clearstream
certifying that they have received certification of non-United States beneficial
ownership of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S
Temporary Global Note (except to the extent of any beneficial owners thereof who

to another exemption from registration under the Securities Act and who will

Note, the Trustee shall cancel the Regulation S Temporary Global Note. The

agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of
Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of

by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the
Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary
or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes shall be exchanged

     Compliance Period and (y) the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates
     required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act. Upon

     deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt by the Registrar of the

Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or
cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to

theft of any Note, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall
authenticate a replacement Note. If required by the Trustee or the Company, the
Holder of such Note shall provide indemnity that is sufficient, in the judgment
of the Trustee or the Company, to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent
and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer in
connection with such replacement. If required by the Company, such Holder shall
reimburse the Company for its reasonable expenses in connection with such
replacement.

          Every replacement Note issued in accordance with this Section 2.07
shall be the valid obligation of the Company, evidencing the same debt as the

this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued
hereunder.

of Notes represented by all of the Global Notes and Definitive Notes
authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered
to it for cancellation, those subject to reductions in beneficial interests
effected by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.06 hereof, and those
described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in
Section 2.09 hereof, a Note shall not cease to be outstanding because the
Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed not to
be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b) hereof.

     (b)  If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it shall cease
to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

     (c)  If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section
4.01 hereof, it shall cease to be outstanding and interest on it shall cease to
accrue.

     (d)  If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an
Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date, a Purchase Date (as
defined in Section 3.09) or a maturity date, funds sufficient to pay Notes
payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to
be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

SECTION 2.09.     TREASURY NOTES.

          In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of
Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the
Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company, 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, waiver or consent, only
Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

SECTION 2.10.     TEMPORARY NOTES.

          Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the
Company may prepare and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance
with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes.
Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may
have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and
as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay,
the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes or
Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes, as applicable. After
preparation of Definitive Notes, the Temporary Note will be exchangeable for
Definitive Notes upon surrender of the Temporary Notes.

          Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of
this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued
hereunder.

SECTION 2.11.     CANCELLATION.

          The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for
cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any
Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.
Upon sole direction of the Company, the Trustee and no one else shall cancel all
Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement
or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes (subject to the record
retention requirements of the Exchange Act or other applicable laws) unless by
written order, signed by an Officer of the Company, the Company directs them to
be returned to it. Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall
be delivered to the Company from time to time upon request. The Company may not
issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 2.12.     PAYMENT OF INTEREST; DEFAULTED INTEREST.

          If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will
pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful,
interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Holders thereof. If the
Company pays the defaulted interest prior to 30 days of the default in payment
of interest, payment shall be paid to the record Holder of the Notes as of the
original record date. If such default in payment of interest continues for 30
days, the Company will, in the case of Definitive Notes, establish a subsequent
special record date, which date shall be the fifteenth day next preceding the
date fixed by the Company for the payment of defaulted interest. If no special
record date is required to be established pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence, (i) in the case of Definitive Notes, Holders of record on the original
record date shall be entitled to such payment of defaulted interest and any such
interest payable on the defaulted interest and (ii) in the case of Global Notes,
Holders on the Defaulted Interest Payment Date (as defined in the next sentence)
shall be entitled to such defaulted interest and any such interest payable on
the defaulted interest. The Company shall notify the Trustee and Paying Agent in
writing of the amount of the defaulted interest proposed to be paid on the Notes
and the date of the proposed payment (a "DEFAULTED INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"), and
at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent an
amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of
such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee
or Paying Agent for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment.

SECTION 2.13.     CUSIP OR ISIN NUMBERS.

          The Company in issuing the Notes may use "CUSIP" and/or "ISIN" numbers
(if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" and/or
"ISIN" numbers in notices of redemption or Offers to

                                       43
<Page>

Purchase as a convenience to Holders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such notice
may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers
either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption or
notice of an Offer to Purchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or Offer to
Purchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The
Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the "CUSIP" and/or
"ISIN" numbers.

SECTION 2.14.     SPECIAL INTEREST

          If Special Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to a
Registration Rights Agreement and paragraph 1 of the Notes, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee a certificate to that effect stating (i) the amount of
such Special Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such interest
is payable pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof. Unless and until a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee receives such a certificate or instruction or direction
from the Holders in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may
assume without inquiry that no Special Interest is payable. The foregoing shall
not prejudice the rights of the Holders with respect to their entitlement to
Special Interest as otherwise set forth in this Indenture or the Notes and
pursuing any action against the Company directly or otherwise directing the
Trustee to take any such action in accordance with the terms of this Indenture
and the Notes. If the Company has paid Special Interest directly to the Persons
entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate setting forth the details of such payment.

SECTION 2.15.     ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL NOTES

          The Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section
4.09 hereof, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture which shall have
identical terms as the Initial Notes issued on the date hereof, other than with
respect to the date of issuance, issue price and rights under a related
Registration Rights Agreement, if any. The Initial Notes issued on the date
hereof, any Additional Notes and all Exchange Notes issued in exchange therefor
shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture,
including directions, waivers, amendments, consents, redemptions and Offers to
Purchase.

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

     (a)  the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be
authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture;

     (b)  the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP and/or ISIN number of
such Additional Notes; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Additional Notes may be issued
at a price that would cause such Additional Notes to have "original issue
discount" within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code, other than a DE
MINIMIS original issue discount within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code;
and

     (c)  whether such Additional Notes shall be subject to the restrictions on
transfer set forth in Section 2.06 hereof relating to Restricted Global Notes
and Restricted Definitive Notes.

SECTION 2.16.     RECORD DATE.

          The record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders of
Notes entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent or permitted
under this Indenture shall be determined as provided for in TIA Section 316(c).

                                   ARTICLE 3.

<Page>

SECTION 3.01.     NOTICES TO TRUSTEE.

          If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional
redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, it shall furnish to the Trustee,
at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date (or such
shorter period as allowed by the Trustee), an Officers' Certificate setting
forth (a) the applicable section of this Indenture pursuant to which the
redemption shall occur, (b) the redemption date, (c) the principal amount of
Notes to be redeemed and (d) the redemption price.

SECTION 3.02.     SELECTION OF NOTES TO BE REDEEMED.

          If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the
Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed among the Holders of the Notes in
compliance with the requirements of the principal national 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 deems
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.

          The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company 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 $1,000 or integral multiples thereof;
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 an integral
multiple of $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 prior to a redemption date,
the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of
redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at such Holder's
registered address appearing in the Security Register.

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

     (a)  the redemption date;

     (b)  the appropriate method for calculation of the redemption price, but
need not include the redemption price itself; the actual redemption price shall
be set forth in an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee no later than
two (2) Business Days prior to the redemption date unless clause (2) of the
definition of "Comparable Treasury Price" is applicable, in which case such
Officers' Certificate should be delivered on the redemption date;

     (c)  if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal
amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon
surrender of such Note, if applicable, a new Note or Notes in principal amount
equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the
original Note;

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

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

     (f)  that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment,
interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the
redemption date;

     (g)  the applicable section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes
called for redemption are being redeemed; and

                                       45
<Page>

     (h)  that no representation is made as to the correctness of the CUSIP
and/or ISIN numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

          At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company's name and at its expense; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days (or such shorter
period allowed by the Trustee), prior to the redemption date, an Officers'
Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice (in the name and at the
expense of the Company) and setting forth the information to be stated in such
notice as provided in this Section 3.03.

SECTION 3.04.     EFFECT OF NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

          Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03
hereof, Notes called for redemption shall become irrevocably due and payable on
the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be
conditional.

SECTION 3.05.     DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

          On or prior to 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on the Business Day prior to
any redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the
Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and, if applicable,
accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The
Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly, and in any event within two (2)
Business Days after the redemption date, return to the Company any money
deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the
amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, on, all Notes to be redeemed.

          If the Company 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 purchase or redemption in
accordance with Section 2.08(d) hereof, whether or note such Notes are presented
for payment. If a Note is redeemed on or after a Regular Record Date but on or
prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was
registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. If any Note
called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because
of the failure of the Company 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 Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall
issue and, upon receipt of an authentication order in accordance with Section
2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the
Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the
Note surrendered.

SECTION 3.07.     OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

     (a)  Except as set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 3.07, the
Notes shall not be redeemable at the option of the Company prior to April 15,
2008. Beginning on April 15, 2008, the Company may redeem all or a portion of
the Notes, at once or over time, after giving the notice required pursuant to
Section 3.03 hereof, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of
principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes
redeemed, to but excluding the applicable redemption date (subject to the right
of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due
on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the twelve-month
period commencing on April 15 of the years indicated below:

     the redemption date, discounted to the redemption date (assuming a 360 day
     year consisting of twelve 30 day months), at the Treasury Rate plus 75
     basis points, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest, including
     Special Interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date (subject to
     the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive
     interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

     (d)  Any prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to
the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

SECTION 3.08.     MANDATORY REDEMPTION.

          Except as set forth in Sections 4.12 and 4.18 hereof, the Company

     circumstances and relevant facts regarding the Change of Control and that a
     Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to Section 4.18;

                                       47

     Section 4.12 or Section 4.18, as the case may be (the "OFFER AMOUNT"), the

       (iii)  except as provided in clause (ix), that all Notes timely tendered
     and not withdrawn shall be accepted for payment;

     Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address
     specified in the notice before the close of business on the third Business
     Day before the Purchase Date;

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

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

         (x)  that Holders whose Notes were purchased in part shall be issued
     new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes

than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the
Offer to Purchase. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same
manner as interest payments are made. The Company shall publicly announce the
results of the Offer to Purchase on the Purchase Date.

     (e)  On or prior to the Purchase Date, the Company shall, to the extent
lawful:

         (i)  accept for payment (on a PRO RATA basis to the extent necessary in
     connection with a Prepayment Offer), the Offer Amount of Notes or portions

promptly (but in the case of a Change of Control, not later than 60 days from
the date of the Change of Control) deliver to each tendering Holder the Purchase
Price. In the event that any portion of the Notes surrendered is not purchased

principal amount equal to such unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered, and,
upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof,
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by
book-entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any
unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that each such
new Note shall be in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple
thereof. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the
Company to the Holder thereof.

     (g)  If the Purchase Date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or

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 shall be
payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Offer to Purchase.

requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws

the Company shall comply with applicable securities laws and regulations and
shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Sections 4.12 or

any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest

that such preservation is not necessary in connection with any transaction not
prohibited by this Indenture.

SECTION 4.08.     PAYMENTS FOR CONSENT.

          The Parent and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of
their respective Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be

such letter of credit.

               Debt issued or sold on or prior to the Issue Date that is
               convertible or exchangeable for Capital Stock (other than
               Disqualified Stock) of the Parent, excluding,

     purchase of all Notes tendered), any repurchase or redemption of Debt of
     the Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries subordinated to the Notes
     that is required to be repurchased or redeemed pursuant to the terms
     thereof as a result of such Asset Sale, at a purchase price not greater
     than 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof (plus accrued and
     unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any); PROVIDED that such
     redemptions or repurchases shall be included in the calculation of the
     amount of Restricted Payments; or

       (xii)  the redemption, repurchase or other acquisition for value of
     Capital Stock of the Parent or any direct or indirect parent entity of the
     Parent representing fractional shares of such Capital Stock in connection
     with a merger, consolidation, amalgamation or other combination involving
     the Company or any direct or indirect parent entity of the Company;
     PROVIDED that such redemptions, repurchases or other acquisitions shall be
     included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

      (xiii)  Investments that are made with Excluded Contributions; PROVIDED
     that such payments shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of
     Restricted Payments; and

       (xiv)  so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
     continuing or would be caused thereby, other Restricted Payments in an
     amount not to exceed $15.0 million; PROVIDED that such amounts shall be
     excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments.

SECTION 4.11.     LIENS.

     (a)  The Parent and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of
their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur or
suffer to exist, any Lien (other than Permitted Liens or Liens securing Senior
Debt) upon any of its Property (including Capital Stock of a Restricted
Subsidiary), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, or any
interest therein or any income or profits therefrom, unless:

         (i)  if such Lien secures Senior Subordinated Debt, the Notes or the
     applicable Guarantee are secured on an equal and ratable basis with such
     Debt; and

        (ii)  if such Lien secures Subordinated Obligations, such Lien shall be
     subordinated to a Lien securing the Notes or the applicable Guarantee in
     the same Property as that securing such Lien to the same extent as such
     Subordinated Obligations are subordinated to the Notes and the Guarantees.

SECTION 4.12.     ASSET SALES.

     (a)  The Parent and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of
their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate
any Asset Sale unless:

         (i)  the Parent, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary receives
     consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair
     Market Value of the Property subject to such Asset Sale;

        (ii)  at least 75% of the consideration paid to the Parent, the Company
     or such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such Asset Sale is in the
     form of cash or Cash Equivalents or the assumption by the purchaser of
     liabilities of the Parent, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other
     than contingent liabilities or liabilities that are by their terms
     subordinated to the Notes or the applicable Guarantee) as a result of which
     the Parent, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer
     obligated with respect to such liabilities; and

                                       57
<Page>

       (iii)  the Company delivers an Officers' Certificate to the Trustee
     certifying that such Asset Sale complies with the foregoing clauses (i) and
     (ii).

     (b)  Solely for the purposes of clause (a)(ii) above, the following will be
deemed to be cash:

         (i)  any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Parent
     or the Restricted Subsidiary from a transferee that are converted by the
     Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash
     received) within 90 days following the closing of such Asset Sale; and

        (ii)  any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Parent or
     any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate
     Fair Market Value (measured at the time received and without giving effect
     to subsequent changes in value), taken together with all other Designated
     Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (b)(ii) then
     outstanding, not to exceed $20.0 million.

     (c)  The Net Available Cash (or any portion thereof) from Asset Sales may
be applied by the Parent, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent
the Parent, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects (or is required by
the terms of any Debt):

         (i)  to Repay Senior Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
     (excluding, in any such case, any Debt owed to the Parent, the Company or
     an Affiliate of the Parent or the Company); or

        (ii)  to reinvest in Additional Assets (including by means of an
     Investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with Net
     Available Cash received by the Parent, the Company or Restricted
     Subsidiary).

     (d)  Pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash, the
Company may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest
such Net Available Cash in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.

     (e)  Any Net Available Cash from an Asset Sale not applied in accordance
with the preceding paragraph within 365 days from the date of the receipt of
such Net Available Cash or that is not segregated from the general funds of the
Company for investment in identified Additional Assets in respect of a project
that shall have been commenced, and for which binding contractual commitments
have been entered into, prior to the end of such 365-day period and that shall
not have been completed or abandoned shall constitute "Excess Proceeds;"
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the amount of any Net Available Cash that ceases to be
so segregated as contemplated above and any Net Available Cash that is
segregated in respect of a project that is abandoned or completed shall also
constitute "Excess Proceeds" at the time any such Net Available Cash ceases to
be so segregated or at the time the relevant project is so abandoned or
completed, as applicable; PROVIDED, FURTHER, HOWEVER, that the amount of any Net
Available Cash that continues to be segregated for investment in identified
Additional Assets and that is not actually so invested within twelve months from
the date of the receipt of such Net Available Cash shall also constitute "Excess
Proceeds."

          When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million
(taking into account income earned on such Excess Proceeds, if any), the Company
will be required to make an offer to repurchase (the "Prepayment Offer") the
Notes within five Business Days after the Company becomes obligated to do so,
which offer shall be in the amount of the Allocable Excess Proceeds (rounded to
the nearest $1,000), on a PRO RATA basis according to principal amount, at a
purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, including Special Interest, if any, to the repurchase date
(subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to
receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in accordance with
the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth
in Section 3.09. To the extent that any portion of the amount of Net Available
Cash remains after compliance with the preceding sentence and PROVIDED that all
holders of Notes have been given the opportunity to tender their Notes for
repurchase in accordance with this Indenture, the Parent, the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary may use such remaining amount for any purpose permitted by
this Indenture, and the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset to zero.

                                       58
<Page>

          The term "Allocable Excess Proceeds" shall mean the product of:

          (a) the Excess Proceeds and

          (b) a fraction,

          (1) the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of the
     Notes outstanding on the date of the Prepayment Offer, and

          (2) the denominator of which is the sum of the aggregate principal
     amount of the Notes outstanding on the date of the Prepayment Offer and the
     aggregate principal amount of other Debt of the Company outstanding on the
     date of the Prepayment Offer that is PARI PASSU in right of payment with
     the Notes and subject to terms and conditions in respect of Asset Sales
     similar in all material respects to this Section 4.12 and requiring the
     Company to make an offer to repurchase such Debt at substantially the same
     time as the Prepayment Offer.

     (f)  The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the
requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws
or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this
Section 4.12. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.12, the Company shall
comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be
deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.12 by virtue
thereof.

SECTION 4.13.     RESTRICTIONS ON DISTRIBUTIONS FROM RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

     (a)  The Parent and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of
their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or
otherwise cause or suffer to exist any consensual restriction on the right of
any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to:

         (i)  pay dividends, in cash or otherwise, or make any other
     distributions on or in respect of its Capital Stock, or pay any Debt or
     other obligation owed, to any Restricted Subsidiary or, in the case of a
     Restricted Subsidiary that is not owned, directly or indirectly by the
     Company or any Guarantor, to the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary,

        (ii)  make any loans or advances to the Parent or any Restricted
     Subsidiary, or

       (iii)  transfer any of its Property to the Parent or any Restricted
     Subsidiary.

     (b)  The foregoing limitations will not apply:

         (i)  with respect to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), to restrictions:

               (A) in effect on the Issue Date (including, without limitation,
          restrictions pursuant to the Notes, this Indenture and the Senior
          Credit Facility),

               (B) relating to Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary and existing at
          the time it became a Restricted Subsidiary if such restriction was not
          created in connection with or in anticipation of the transaction or
          series of transactions pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary
          became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by the Parent or the
          Company, or

               (C) that result from the Refinancing of Debt Incurred pursuant to
          an agreement referred to in clause (i)(A) or (B) above or in clause
          (i)(G), (ii)(A) or (B) below; PROVIDED such restrictions are not more
          restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreement
          evidencing the Debt so Refinanced,

                                       59
<Page>

               (D) contained in any agreement for the sale or other disposition
          of a Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this
          Indenture that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary
          pending such sale or other disposition;

               (E) relating to Debt or other contractual requirements or
          restrictions of a Securitization Subsidiary in connection with a
          Permitted Receivables Financing; PROVIDED that such restrictions only
          apply to such Securitization Subsidiary;

               (F) contained in any agreement governing Debt incurred by a
          Foreign Restricted Subsidiary permitted under Section 4.09; PROVIDED
          that such restrictions only apply to such Foreign Restricted
          Subsidiary; PROVIDED, FURTHER that such Debt is not guaranteed by the
          Parent or any of its Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries;

               (G) contained in any other agreement, instrument or document
          relating to Senior Debt in effect after the Issue Date; PROVIDED that
          the terms and conditions of such restrictions are not materially more
          restrictive taken as a whole than those restrictions imposed in
          connection with the Senior Credit Facility as in effect on the Issue
          Date (which may result in restrictions upon a Restricted Subsidiary so
          long as such restrictions are not materially more restrictive taken as
          a whole than the comparable restriction that is applicable to the
          Parent or the Company); and

        (ii)  with respect to clause (iii) only, to restrictions:

               (A) relating to Debt that is permitted to be Incurred and secured
          without also securing the Notes or the applicable Guarantee pursuant
          to Section 4.09 and Section 4.11 that limit the right of the debtor to
          dispose of the Property securing such Debt,

               (B) encumbering Property at the time such Property was acquired
          by the Parent, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, so long as
          such restrictions relate solely to the Property so acquired and were
          not created in connection with or in anticipation of such acquisition,

               (C) resulting from customary provisions restricting subletting or
          assignment of leases or customary provisions in other agreements that
          restrict assignment of such agreements or rights thereunder,

               (D) customary restrictions contained in asset sale agreements,
          sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar
          agreements limiting the transfer of such Property pending the closing
          of such sale;

               (E) customary restrictions contained in joint venture and similar

          otherwise permitted by this Indenture;

               (F) customary non-assignment provisions in leases entered into in
          the ordinary course of business; and

               (G) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed
          by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of
          business.

SECTION 4.14.     AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS.

     (a)  The Parent and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of
their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into
any transaction or series of transactions (including the purchase, sale,
transfer, assignment, lease, conveyance or exchange of any Property or the
rendering of any service) with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the
Parent or the Company (an "AFFILIATE TRANSACTION"), unless:

         (i)  the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are set forth in writing
     and no less favorable to the Parent, the Company or such Restricted
     Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a
     comparable arm's-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate
     of the Parent, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary;

        (ii)  if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate payments or value
     in excess of $2.0 million, the Board of Directors (including, in either
     case, at least a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of
     Directors) approves such Affiliate Transaction and, in its good faith
     judgment, believes that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i)
     of this paragraph as evidenced by a Board Resolution promptly delivered to
     the Trustee; and

       (iii)  if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate payments or value
     in excess of $10.0 million, the Company obtains a written opinion from an
     Independent Financial Advisor to the effect that the consideration to be
     paid or received in connection with such Affiliate Transaction is fair,
     from a financial point of view, to the Parent, the Company and their
     respective Restricted Subsidiaries.

     (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, the Parent, the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into or suffer to exist the following:

     one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or between two or more Restricted
     Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;

        (ii)  any Restricted Payment permitted to be made pursuant to Section
     4.10 or any Permitted Investment;

       (iii)  the payment of compensation (including amounts paid pursuant to
     employee benefit plans) for the personal services of officers, directors
     and employees of the Parent, the Company or any of their respective
     Restricted Subsidiaries, so long as the Board of Directors in good faith
     shall have approved the terms thereof and deemed the services theretofore
     or thereafter to be performed for such compensation to be fair
     consideration therefor;

        (iv)  loans and advances to non-executive employees made in the
     ordinary course of business and consistent with the past practices of the
     Parent, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be;
     PROVIDED that such loans and advances do not exceed $1.0 million in the
     aggregate at any one time outstanding;

         (v)  agreements in effect on the Issue Date and described in the
     offering memorandum and any modifications, extensions or renewals thereto
     that are no less favorable to the Parent, the Company or any Restricted
     Subsidiary than such agreements as in effect on the Issue Date;

        (vi)  customary indemnification agreements with officers and directors
     of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries or of any direct or indirect
     parent entity of the Parent;

       (vii)  transactions effected on the Issue Date in connection with the
     Transactions, including the payment of all fees and expenses described in
     the Offering Memorandum under the heading "Certain Relationships and
     Related Transactions;"

                                       61
<Page>

      (viii)  transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary
     of the Parent) that is an Affiliate of the Parent solely because the Parent
     owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, Capital Stock in or
     controls such Person;

        (ix)  any payments or other transactions pursuant to any tax sharing
     agreement between Parent and any other Person with which Parent files a
     consolidated tax return or with which Parent is part of a consolidated
     group for tax purposes;

         (x)  transactions pursuant to the Management Agreement, as in effect on
     the Issue Date, as such agreement may be amended, modified, or replaced
     from time to time so long as the amended, modified or new agreement, taken
     as a whole, is no less favorable to the Parent and its Restricted
     Subsidiaries than the Management Agreement as in effect on the Issue Date;

        (xi)  the issuance of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Capital
     Stock) of the Parent to any direct or indirect parent entity of the Parent;
     and

       (xii)  transactions between a Securitization Subsidiary and the Parent
     or one or more Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with a Permitted
     Receivables Financing.

SECTION 4.15.     ISSUANCE OR SALE OF CAPITAL STOCK OF RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

     (a)  The Parent and the Company shall not, directly or indirectly:

         (i)  sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any shares of
     Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than to secure Senior Debt
     permitted to be incurred under this Indenture); or

        (ii)  permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly,
     issue or sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of its Capital Stock;

     other than, in the case of either (i) or (ii):

               (A) directors' qualifying shares;

               (B) to the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary; or

               (C) a disposition of outstanding shares of Capital Stock of such
          Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Company or Holdings) such that
          following such disposition, such Restricted Subsidiary ceases to be a
          Subsidiary of the Parent or the Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, in
          the case of this clause (C), such disposition is effected in
          compliance with Section 4.12 and, to the extent applicable, Section
          4.10 and upon consummation of such disposition and execution and
          delivery of a supplemental indenture in form satisfactory to the
          Trustee, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be released from any
          Guarantee previously made by such Restricted Subsidiary.

SECTION 4.16.     LIMITATION ON LAYERED DEBT.

          The Parent and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any
Guarantor to, Incur, directly or indirectly, any Debt that is subordinate or
junior in right of payment to any Senior Debt unless such Debt is Senior Debt
incurred under the Senior Credit Facility, Senior Subordinated Debt or is
expressly subordinated in right of payment to Senior Subordinated Debt. In
addition, no Guarantor shall Guarantee, directly or indirectly, any Debt of the
Company that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Debt
unless such Guarantee is expressly subordinate in right of payment to, or ranks
PARI PASSU with, the Guarantee of such Guarantor. No Debt of the Parent, the
Company or any Guarantor will be deemed to be subordinated in right of payment
to any other Debt of the Parent, the Company or any Guarantor solely by virtue
of being unsecured or by virtue of the fact that the

                                       62
<Page>

holders of such Debt have entered into intercreditor agreements or arrangements
giving one or more of such holders priority over the other holders in the
collateral held by them.

SECTION 4.17.     DESIGNATION OF RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

     (a)  The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any of its
Subsidiaries to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if the Parent or a Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, is permitted to make such Investment in such
Subsidiary and such Subsidiary:

         (i)  does not own any Capital Stock or Debt of, or own or hold any
     Lien on any Property of, the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary;

        (ii)  has no Debt other than Non-Recourse Debt; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
     the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary may loan, advance, extend credit to,
     or guarantee the Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary at any time at or after
     such Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance
     with Section 4.10;

       (iii)  except as would be permitted by Section 4.14, is not party to any
     agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Parent or any
     Restricted Subsidiaries unless the terms of any such agreement, contract,
     arrangement or understanding are no less favorable, taken as a whole, to
     the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that might be obtained
     at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Parent or the
     Company;

        (iv)  is a Person with respect to which neither the Parent nor any
     Restricted Subsidiaries has any direct or indirect obligation (A) to
     subscribe for additional Capital Stock or (B) to maintain or preserve such
     Person's financial condition or to cause such Person to achieve any
     specified levels of operating results; and

         (v)  has not Guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided
     credit support in the form of Debt for any Debt of the Parent or its
     Restricted Subsidiaries.

     (b)  Unless so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any Person that
becomes a Subsidiary of the Parent will be classified as a Restricted
Subsidiary; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such Subsidiary shall not be designated a
Restricted Subsidiary and shall be automatically classified as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary if either of the requirements set forth in subparagraphs (i) and (ii)
of clause (d) below will not be satisfied after giving pro forma effect to such
classification or if such Person is a Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

     (c)  Except as provided in the first sentence of clause (b), no Restricted
Subsidiary may be redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, and neither the
Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall at any time be directly or indirectly
liable for any Debt that provides that the holder thereof may (with the passage
of time or notice or both) declare a default thereon or cause the payment
thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its Stated Maturity upon the
occurrence of a default with respect to any Debt, Lien or other obligation of
any Unrestricted Subsidiary (including any right to take enforcement action
against such Unrestricted Subsidiary). Upon designation of a Restricted
Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with this Section 4.17,
such Restricted Subsidiary shall, by execution and delivery of a supplemental
indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee, be released from any Guarantee
previously made by such Restricted Subsidiary.

     (d)  The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Unrestricted
Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if, immediately after giving pro forma
effect to such designation,

         (i)  the Company could Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt
     pursuant to Section 4.09(a); and

        (ii)  no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
     continuing or would result therefrom.

                                       63
<Page>

          Any such designation or redesignation by the Board of Directors will
be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a Board Resolution giving
effect to such designation or redesignation and an Officers' Certificate that:

          (a) certifies that such designation or redesignation complies with the
     foregoing provisions, and

          (b) gives the effective date of such designation or redesignation;

such filing with the Trustee to occur within 45 days after the end of the fiscal
quarter of the Company in which such designation or redesignation is made (or,
in the case of a designation or redesignation made during the last fiscal
quarter of the Company's fiscal year, within 90 days after the end of such
fiscal year).

SECTION 4.18.     REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL

     (a)  Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall, within
30 days of a Change of Control, make an offer (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL OFFER")
pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3.09. Each Holder shall have the
right to accept such offer and require the Company to repurchase all or any
portion (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000) of such Holder's
Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer at a purchase price, in cash (the
"CHANGE OF CONTROL AMOUNT"), equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of
Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased, to
the Purchase Date.

     (b)  The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer
upon a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer
in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements
set forth in this Indenture applicable to the Company and purchases all Notes
properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or (ii) an
irrevocable notice of redemption for all outstanding Notes has been given in

SECTION 4.19.     FUTURE GUARANTORS.

          The Parent and the Company shall cause each Person that becomes a
Domestic Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Subsidiary)
following the Issue Date to execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guarantee at
the time such Person becomes a Domestic Restricted Subsidiary. In addition, the
Parent and the Company will cause each of its respective existing non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries and each of its respective Foreign Restricted Subsidiaries created
or acquired after the Issue Date which has guaranteed or which guarantees any
Debt of the Parent or any of its Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries, to execute
and deliver to the Trustee a Guarantee pursuant to which such non-Guarantor
Subsidiary or Foreign Restricted Subsidiary will guarantee payment of the
Company's obligations under the Notes on the same terms and conditions as set
forth in the guarantee of such other Debt of the Parent or any Domestic
Restricted Subsidiary given by such non-Guarantor Subsidiary or Foreign
Restricted Subsidiary; PROVIDED that if such Debt is by its express terms
subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, any such guarantee of such
non-Guarantor Subsidiary or Foreign Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such
Debt will be subordinated in right of payment to such non-Guarantor Subsidiary's
or Foreign Restricted Subsidiary's Guarantee with respect to the Notes
substantially to the same extent as such Debt is subordinated to the Notes;
PROVIDED, FURTHER, HOWEVER, that any such Guarantee shall also provide by its
terms that it will be automatically and unconditionally released upon the
release or discharge of such guarantee of payment of such other Debt (except a
discharge by or as a result of payment under such guarantee).

against the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary and that shall not be waived,
satisfied or discharged for any period of 30 consecutive days during which a
stay of enforcement shall not be in effect;

     (g)  any Guarantee of the Parent or a Significant Restricted Subsidiary

          and such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60
consecutive days.

SECTION 6.02.     ACCELERATION.

          If any Event of Default (other than that described in Section 6.01(h)
or (i)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, and the Trustee upon the
request of Holders of 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall, or
the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Notes may,
declare the principal of all the Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid
interest, premium, if any, to be due and payable by notice in writing to the
Company and the Trustee specifying the respective Event of Default and that such
notice is a notice of acceleration (the "ACCELERATION NOTICE"), and the same
shall become immediately due and payable.

          In the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or
(i), all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately without any
further declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the Holders.

          After any such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on
acceleration is obtained by the Trustee, the registered holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may, under
certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration if all Events of
Default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal, premium or
interest, have been cured or waived as provided in the indenture.

          In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an
Event of Default described in Section 6.01(e) above has occurred and is
continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically
annulled if the event of default or payment default triggering such Event of
Default shall be remedied or cured by the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary or
waived by the holders of the relevant Debt within 30 days after the declaration
of acceleration with respect thereto and if (1) the annulment of the
acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a
court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, except
non-payment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes that became due
solely because of the acceleration of the Notes have been cured or waived.

          Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided
in this Indenture.

SECTION 6.03.     OTHER REMEDIES.

          If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may
pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if
any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of
the Notes or this Indenture.

          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 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 shall be
cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

SECTION 6.04.     WAIVER OF DEFAULTS.

     (a)  The Holders of at least 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, except a continuing Default or Event of Default (i) in the payment
of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes and (ii) in
respect of a covenant or provision which under this Indenture cannot be modified
or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected by such
modification or amendment. Upon any waiver of a Default or Event of Default,
such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of

                                       68
<Page>

Default arising therefrom shall be deemed cured for every purpose of this
Indenture 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.

          Subject to Section 7.01, Section 7.02(f) (including the Trustee's
receipt of the security or indemnification described therein) and Section 7.07
hereof, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall
have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes.

SECTION 6.06.     LIMITATION ON SUITS.

          No Holder shall have any right to institute any proceeding with
respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or
for any remedy thereunder, unless:

     (a)  such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a
continuing Event of Default or the Trustee receives the notice from the Company,

     (b)  Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then outstanding have made written request and offered reasonable indemnity to
the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and

     (c)  the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding a direction
inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such
proceeding within 60 days.

          The preceding limitations shall not apply to a suit instituted by a
Holder for enforcement of payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or
interest on, a Note on or after the respective due dates for such payments set
forth in such Note.

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

SECTION 6.07.     RIGHTS OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PAYMENT.

          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture (including
Section 6.06), the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium,
if any, and interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the
respective due dates expressed in the Notes (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 Company for the whole amount of
principal of, premium, if any, and interest then due and owing (together with
interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest) and such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

SECTION 6.09.     TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

          The Trustee shall be 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 reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the
Holders

                                       69
<Page>

allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (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 reasonable 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 and 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, moneys, securities and any 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 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.

          If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall
pay out the money in the following order:

          FIRST: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under
Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and
liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and
expenses of collection;

          SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for
principal, premium, if any, and interest ratably, without preference or priority
of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for
principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

          THIRD: to the Company 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 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 such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and the
court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to
the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.
This Section 6.11 shall not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by the
Company, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by
Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

                                   ARTICLE 7.

                                     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

     conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
     the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to
     the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However,
     the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine
     whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need

     Section;

request of any Holders, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee
security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or

take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or
powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

request, direction or notice from the Company shall be sufficient if signed by
an Officer of the Company.

     (e)  The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event
of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge
thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in

                                       71
<Page>

fact such a Default or Event of Default is received by a Responsible Officer of
the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee from the Company or the
Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, and such
notice references the specific Default or Event of Default, the Notes and this
Indenture.

     (f)  The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in
respect of the performance of its power and duties hereunder.

     (g)  The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the
Company's covenants herein.

perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it
hereunder.

SECTION 7.03.     INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

          The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the
owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any
Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not
Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting
interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission
for permission to continue as Trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with
like rights and duties. The Trustee shall also be subject to Sections 7.10 and
7.11 hereof.

SECTION 7.04.     TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER.

          The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation
as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be
accountable for the Company's use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money
paid to the Company or upon the Company's direction under any provision of this
Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be
responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or
any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this
Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

SECTION 7.05.     NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

          If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is
known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to Holders a notice of the Default
or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a
Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a
committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding
the notice is in the interests of the Holders.

SECTION 7.06.     REPORTS BY TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS.

          Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following
the date of this Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the
Trustee shall mail to the Holders a brief report dated as of such reporting date
that complies with TIA Section 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA
Section 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting
date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA
Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as
required by TIA Section 313(c).

          A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders shall
be mailed to the Company and filed with the Commission and each stock exchange
on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA Section 313(d). The Company
shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
exchange and any delisting thereof.

                                       72
<Page>

SECTION 7.07.     COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

          The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable
compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The
Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a
trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly
upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or
made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall
include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's
agents and counsel.

          The Company shall indemnify the Trustee (in its capacity as Trustee)
or any predecessor Trustee (in its capacity as Trustee) against any and all
losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, liabilities or expenses, including
incidental and out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable attorneys fees (for
purposes of this Article, "LOSSES") incurred by it arising out of or in
connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this
Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against
the Company (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim
(whether asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability
in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder, except to the extent such losses may be attributable to its
negligence or bad faith. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any
claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the
Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Section
7.07, to the extent the Company has been prejudiced thereby. The Company shall
defend the claim, and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee
may have separate counsel if the Trustee has been reasonably advised by counsel
that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different
from or additional to those available to the Company and in the reasonable
judgment of such counsel it is advisable for the Trustee to engage separate
counsel, and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such
counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company need not reimburse
any expense or indemnify against any loss incurred by the Trustee through the
Trustee's own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

          The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 shall survive
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the resignation or removal of
the Trustee and payment in full of the Notes through the expiration of the
applicable statute of limitations.

          To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section, the
Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or
collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal, premium,
if any, and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

          When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or (i) hereof occurs, the expenses and the
compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and
counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 7.08.     REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE.

          A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of
appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.

          The Trustee may resign in writing at any time upon 30 days' prior
notice to the Company and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so
notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee
and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if:

     (a)  the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

     (b)  the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief
is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

                                       73
<Page>

     (c)  a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its
property; or

     (d)  the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

          If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to
herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a
successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

          If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company, or
the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

          If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a
Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such
Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

          A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the
successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee
under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its
succession to Holders. Subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof,
the retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee
to the successor Trustee; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that all sums owing to the Trustee
hereunder shall have been paid. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company's obligations under Section 7.07
hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

          In the case of an appointment hereunder of a separate or successor
Trustee with respect to the Notes, the Company, the Guarantors, any retiring
Trustee and each successor or separate Trustee with respect to the Notes shall
execute and deliver an Indenture supplemental hereto (1) which shall contain
such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all
the rights, powers, trusts and duties of any retiring Trustee with respect to
the Notes as to which any such retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue
to be vested in such retiring Trustee and (2) that shall add to or change any of
the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or
facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee,
it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustee co-trustees of the same trust and that each such
separate, retiring or successor Trustee shall be Trustee of a trust or trusts
hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by
any such other Trustee.

SECTION 7.09.     SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER, ETC.

          If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all
or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or
banking association, the successor corporation or banking association without
any further act shall, if such successor corporation or banking association is
otherwise eligible hereunder, be the successor Trustee.

SECTION 7.10.     ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION.

          There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a Person
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or
of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0
million (or a wholly-owned subsidiary of a bank or trust company, or of a bank
holding company, the principal subsidiary of which is a bank or trust company
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million) as set forth in
its most recent published annual report of condition.

                                       74
<Page>

          This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of TIA Section 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to
TIA Section 310(b).

SECTION 7.11.     PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.

          The Trustee is subject to TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been
removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

                                   ARTICLE 8.

                    LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

SECTION 8.01.     OPTION TO EFFECT LEGAL DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

          The Company may, at its option and 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 in this Article 8.

SECTION 8.02.     LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE.

          Upon the Company's exercise under Section 8.01 of the option
applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged
from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes on the date the
conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "LEGAL DEFEASANCE") and
each Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations under its
Guarantee. For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be
deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Debt represented by the
outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for
the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred
to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under
the Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense
of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except
for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or
discharged hereunder:

          (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from
the trust fund described in Section 8.04, and as more fully set forth in such
Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest
on such Notes when such payments are due,

          (b) the Company's obligations with respect to such Notes under Article
2 and Sections 4.01 and 4.02,

          (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder and the Company's obligations in connection therewith and

          (d) this Article 8.

          If the Company exercises under Section 8.01 the option applicable to
this Section 8.02, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 8.04, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of
Default. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its
option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option
under Section 8.03.

SECTION 8.03.     COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

          Upon the Company's exercise under Section 8.01 of the option
applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from its obligations
under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.09 through 4.16, 4.18 and 4.19
hereof, and the operation of Sections 5.01(a)(v) and (b)(v), 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 each Guarantor shall be
released from all of its obligations under its Guarantee with respect to such
covenants in connection with such outstanding Notes and the

                                       75
<Page>

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 Company may omit to comply with and shall have no
liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such
covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere
herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant
to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to
comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01,
but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes
shall be unaffected thereby. If the Company exercises under Section 8.01 the
option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in Section 8.04, payment of the Notes may not be
accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clause (d) (with respect
to the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.09 through 4.16, 4.18 and 4.19
hereof), (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) (but in the case of (h) and (i) of Section
6.01, with respect to Significant Restricted Subsidiaries only) or because of
the Company's or the Parent's failure to comply with clauses (a)(v) and (b)(v)
of Section 5.01.

SECTION 8.04.     CONDITIONS TO LEGAL OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

          The following shall be the conditions to the application of either
Section 8.02 or 8.03 to the outstanding Notes.

          The Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance may be exercised only if:

     (a)  the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee, in trust (the
"DEFEASANCE TRUST"), for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars,
non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination of cash in U.S.
dollars and non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, in an amount sufficient,
in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the next redemption date, as the
case may be, and the Company shall specify whether the Notes are being defeased
to maturity or to such particular redemption date;

     (b)  in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall deliver to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming
that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the
Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) subsequent to the Issue Date, there
has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to
the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that,
the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for
federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be
subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the
same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not
occurred;

     (c)  in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall deliver to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming
that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or
loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and
will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner
and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance
had not occurred;

     (d)  no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the
date of deposit and after giving effect thereto (other than a Default resulting
from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit);

     (e)  such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or
instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is
bound;

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

                                       76
<Page>

     (g)  the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of
preferring the holders of the Notes over the other creditors of the Company with
the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the
Company or others; and

     (h)  the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the
Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

SECTION 8.05.     DEPOSITED CASH AND U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS TO BE HELD IN
TRUST; OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

          Subject to Section 8.06, all cash and non-callable U.S. Government
Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or
other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the
"TRUSTEE") pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be
held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of
such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any
Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect
of principal, premium, if any, and interest but such cash and securities need
not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

          The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee
or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S.
Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the
principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee
or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the
outstanding Notes.

          Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request
of the Company any cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations held by it
as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the certification
delivered under Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would
then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance.

SECTION 8.06.     REPAYMENT TO COMPANY.

          The Trustee shall promptly, and in any event, no later than five (5)
Business Days, pay to the Company after request therefor, any excess money held
with respect to the Notes at such time in excess of amounts required to pay any
of the Company's Obligations then owing with respect to the Notes.

          Any cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations deposited with
the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the
payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining
unclaimed for one year after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has
become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then
held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder shall
thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Company for payment
thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to
such cash and securities, and all liability of the Company 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
Company cause to be published once, in THE NEW YORK TIMES and THE WALL STREET
JOURNAL (national edition), notice that such cash and securities 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 cash and securities then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 8.07.     REINSTATEMENT.

          If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any cash or
non-callable U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.02 or
8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or
governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, then the Company's

                                       77
<Page>

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 until such
time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such cash and
securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to
receive such payment from the cash and securities held by the Trustee or Paying
Agent.

SECTION 9.02.     WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS OF NOTES.

          Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees with
the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Notes, including Additional Notes, if any, then outstanding voting as a

interest on the Notes and (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision which under
this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder
of each Note affected by such modification or amendment) or compliance with any
provision of this Indenture or the Notes.

          Without the consent of each Holder, 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 amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an
amendment or waiver;

          (b)  reduce the rate of, or extend the time for payment of, interest,
if any, on, any Note;

          (c)  reduce the principal of, or extend the Stated Maturity of, any
Note;

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

          (e)  impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal
of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on, such Holder's Notes on or after
the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment
on or with respect to such Holder's Notes or any Guarantee;

          (f)  reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or
change the time at which any Note may be redeemed, as described under Section
3.07;

          (g)  reduce the premium payable upon a Change of Control or, at any
time after a Change of Control has occurred, change the time at which the Change
of Control Offer relating thereto must be made or at which the Notes must be
repurchased pursuant to such Change of Control Offer;

          (h)  at any time after the Company is obligated to make a Prepayment
Offer with the Excess Proceeds from Asset Sales, change the time at which such
Prepayment Offer must be made or at which the Notes must be repurchased pursuant
thereto;

          (i)  make any change to the subordination provisions of this Indenture
that would adversely affect the Holders of the Notes; or

          (j)  make any change in any Guarantee that would adversely affect the
Holders.

          The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for
the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any supplemental
indenture. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their
duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to
such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after
such record date; PROVIDED that unless such consent shall have become effective
by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date
which is 120 days after such record date, any such consent previously given
shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of
no further effect.

          It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders 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.

                                       79
<Page>

          After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02
becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holder of each Note affected
thereby to such Holder's address appearing in the Security Register a notice
briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the
Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any
way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture
or waiver.

SECTION 9.03.     COMPLIANCE WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

          Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be
set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as
then in effect.

SECTION 9.04.     REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS.

          Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent
to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every
subsequent Holder of a Note or portion thereof 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 or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to
its Note or portion thereof if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation
before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An
amendment, supplement or waiver shall become effective in accordance with its
terms and thereafter shall bind 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 Company in
exchange for all Notes may issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in
accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall 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.

          The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture
authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not
adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.
Neither the Company nor any Guarantor may sign an amendment or supplemental
indenture until its board of directors (or committee serving a similar function)
approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee
shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully
protected in relying upon 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 and that such amended or supplemental
indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions and
that such amended or supplemental indenture complies with the provisions hereof
(including Section 9.03).

                                   ARTICLE 10.

                                   GUARANTEES

SECTION 10.01.    GUARANTEE.

          Subject to this Article 10, the Guarantors hereby unconditionally
guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee
and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns: (a) the due and punctual
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, subject
to any applicable grace period, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration,
redemption or otherwise, the due and punctual payment of interest on the overdue
principal of and premium, if any, and, to the extent permitted by law, interest,
and the due

                                       80
<Page>

and punctual performance of all other obligations of the Company to the Holders
or the Trustee under this Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement or any
other agreement with or for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee, all in
accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension
of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations,
that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance
with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by
acceleration pursuant to Section 6.02, redemption or otherwise. Failing payment
when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for
whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay
the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment
and not a guarantee of collection.

          Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations with regard to its
Guarantee shall be joint and several, unconditional, irrespective of the
validity or enforceability of the Notes or the obligations of the Company under
this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, the recovery of
any judgment against the Company or any other obligor with respect to this
Indenture, the Notes or the Obligations of the Company under this Indenture or
the Notes, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstances (other than
complete performance) which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor further, to the extent
permitted by law, waives and relinquishes all claims, rights and remedies
accorded by applicable law to guarantors and agrees not to assert or take
advantage of any such claims, rights or remedies, including but not limited to:
(a) any right to require any of the Trustee, the Holders or the Company (each a
"BENEFITED PARTY"), as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor,
to (1) proceed against the Company, any other guarantor (including any other
Guarantor) of the Obligations under the Guarantees or any other Person, (2)
proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Company, any such other
guarantor or any other Person, (3) proceed against or have resort to any balance
of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Benefited Party in favor of
the Company or any other Person, or (4) pursue any other remedy in the power of
any Benefited Party whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the
incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of the Company
including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the
unenforceability of the Obligations under the Guarantees or any agreement or
instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of
the Company from any cause other than payment in full of the Obligations under
the Guarantees; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which
provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in
other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based
upon any Benefited Party's errors or omissions in the administration of the
Obligations under the Guarantees, except behavior which amounts to bad faith;
(e)(1) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or
might be in conflict with the terms of the Guarantees and any legal or equitable
discharge of such Guarantor's obligations hereunder, (2) the benefit of any
statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor's liability hereunder or the
enforcement hereof, (3) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims
and (4) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Benefited Party
protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property
subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentations, protests, notices of
protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including
acceptance of the Guarantees, notices of Default under the Notes or any
agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or
modification of the Obligations under the Guarantees or any agreement related
thereto, and notices of any extension of credit to the Company and any right to
consent to any thereof; (g) to the extent permitted under applicable law, the
benefits of any "One Action" rule and (h) any defenses or benefits that may be
derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate
guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of the Guarantees.
Except to the extent expressly provided herein, including Sections 8.02, 8.03
and 10.05, each Guarantor hereby covenants that its Guarantee shall not be
discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in its
Guarantee and this Indenture.

          If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to
return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or
other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the
Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this
Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full
force and effect.

          Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed
hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each
Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and
the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the
obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 6.02
hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction
or other prohibition preventing such

                                       81
<Page>

acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the
event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in
Section 6.02 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall
forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this
Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any
non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the
rights of the Holders under the Guarantee. The other Guarantors' shares of such
contribution payment will be computed based on the proportion that the net worth
of the relevant Guarantor represents relative to the aggregate net worth of all
of the Guarantors combined.

SECTION 10.02.    LIMITATION ON GUARANTOR LIABILITY.

     (a)  Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby
confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee of such
Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of
Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any
guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and
the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that each Guarantor's liability shall be
that amount from time to time equal to the aggregate liability of such Guarantor
under the guarantee, but shall be limited to the lesser of (a) the aggregate
amount of the Company's obligations under the Notes and this Indenture or (b)
the amount, if any, which would not have (1) rendered the Guarantor "insolvent"
(as such term is defined in Bankruptcy Law and in the Debtor and Creditor Law of
the State of New York) or (2) left it with unreasonably small capital at the
time its guarantee with respect to the Notes was entered into, after giving
effect to the incurrence of existing Debt immediately before such time;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, it shall be a presumption in any lawsuit or proceeding in
which a Guarantor is a party that the amount guaranteed pursuant to the
guarantee with respect to the Notes is the amount described in clause (a) above
unless any creditor, or representative of creditors of the Guarantor, or debtor
in possession or Trustee in bankruptcy of the Guarantor, otherwise proves in a
lawsuit that the aggregate liability of the Guarantor is limited to the amount
described in clause (b).

     (b)  In making any determination as to the solvency or sufficiency of
capital of a Guarantor in accordance with this Section 10.02, the right of each
Guarantor to contribution from other Guarantors and any other rights such
Guarantor may have, contractual or otherwise, shall be taken into account.

SECTION 10.03.    EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF GUARANTEE.

          To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each Guarantor
hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantee in substantially the form
included in Exhibit E attached hereto shall be endorsed by an Officer of such
Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this
Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by its President, Chief
Financial Officer, Treasurer or one of its Vice Presidents.

          Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section
10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to
endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee.

          If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Guarantee
no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on
which a Guarantee is endorsed, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

          The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication
thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in
this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

          The Company hereby agrees that it shall cause each Person that becomes
obligated to provide a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.19 to execute a
supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee, pursuant to which such Person provides the guarantee set forth in this
Article 10 and otherwise assumes the obligations and accepts the rights of a
Guarantor under this Indenture, in each case with the same effect and to the
same extent as if such Person had been named herein as a Guarantor. The Company
also hereby agrees to cause each such new Guarantor to evidence its guarantee by
endorsing a notation of such guarantee on each Note as provided in this Section
10.03.

                                       82
<Page>

SECTION 10.04.    GUARANTORS MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC., ON CERTAIN TERMS.

          Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05, no Guarantor may
consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the
Surviving Person) another Person whether or not affiliated with such Guarantor
unless:

     (a)  subject to Section 10.05, the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than a Guarantor or the Company)
unconditionally assumes all the obligations of such Guarantor, pursuant to a
supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee, under this Indenture, the Guarantee and any Registration Rights
Agreements on the terms set forth herein or therein; and

     (b)  the Guarantor complies with the requirements of Article 5 hereof.

          In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon
the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and
delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the
Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of
the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor,
such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with
the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor
Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Guarantees to be
endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not
have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Guarantees
so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this
Indenture as the Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with
the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Guarantees had been issued at
the date of the execution hereof.

          Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5, and notwithstanding clauses
(a) and (b) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes
shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the
Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the
property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the
Company or another Guarantor.

SECTION 10.05.    RELEASES FOLLOWING MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS,
ETC..

          In the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of any Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or
otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of any
Guarantor, in each case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving
effect to such transactions) a Subsidiary of the Parent, then such Guarantor (in
the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or
otherwise, of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation
acquiring the property (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) shall be released and
relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee; PROVIDED that the net proceeds
of such sale or other disposition shall be applied in accordance with the
applicable provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation Section
4.12. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in
accordance with the provisions of Section 4.17, such Subsidiary shall be
released and relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee. Upon delivery by
the Company to the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that such sale or other disposition was made by the Company or
Parent in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, including without
limitation Section 4.12, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably
required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations
under its Guarantee.

          Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Guarantee
shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on the
Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as
provided in this Article 10.

                                   ARTICLE 11.

                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

                                       83
<Page>

SECTION 11.01.    SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE.

          This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further
effect, except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of
the Notes, as to all Notes issued hereunder, when:

     (a)  either:

         (i)  all Notes that have been previously authenticated and delivered
     (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and
     Notes for whose payment money has previously been deposited in trust or
     segregated and held in trust by the Company and is thereafter repaid to the
     Company or discharged from the trust) have been delivered to the Trustee
     for cancellation; or

        (ii)  all Notes that have not been previously delivered to the Trustee
     for cancellation have become due and payable by their terms within one year
     or have been called for redemption, and the Company has irrevocably
     deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in
     trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars,
     non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such
     amounts as shall be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of
     interest, to pay and discharge the entire Debt on the Notes not previously
     delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or redemption for principal,
     premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the date of deposit, in the
     case of Notes that have become due and payable, or to the Stated Maturity
     or redemption date, as the case may be.

     (b)  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 will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default
under, any other material instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a
party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

     (c)  the Company has paid all other sums payable by the Company with
respect to the Notes under this Indenture; and

     (d)  the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to
apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at Stated Maturity or
on the redemption date.

     In addition, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent
relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been
satisfied.

SECTION 11.02.    DEPOSITED CASH AND U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS TO BE HELD IN
                  TRUST; OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

          Subject to Section 11.03, all cash and non-callable U.S. Government
Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or
other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 11.02, the
"Trustee") pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes
shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the
provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or
through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to
become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest but
such cash and securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law.

SECTION 11.03.    REPAYMENT TO COMPANY.

          Any cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations deposited with
the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note and
remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or
interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request
or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the
Holder shall thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Company for
payment thereof,

                                       84
<Page>

and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such cash
and securities, and all liability of the Company 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
Company cause to be published once, in THE NEW YORK TIMES and THE WALL STREET
JOURNAL (national edition), notice that such cash and securities 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 cash and securities then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

                                   ARTICLE 12.

                                  SUBORDINATION

SECTION 12.01.    AGREEMENT TO SUBORDINATE

          The Company agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that
the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and all other
amounts payable in respect of, the Notes and payment under any Guarantee is
subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in
this Article 12 and subject to the provisions of Article 8 hereof, to the
payment when due in cash of all Senior Debt of the Company or the relevant
Guarantor, as the case may be, and that the subordination is for the benefit of
and enforceable by the holders of such Senior Debt. The Notes and Guarantees
shall in all respects rank pari passu with any future Senior Subordinated Debt
of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, and senior to all
existing and future Subordinated Debt of the Company or the relevant Guarantor,
as the case may be, and only Senior Debt shall rank senior to the Notes in
accordance with the provisions set forth herein. All provisions of this Article
12 shall be subject to Section 12.12. All references to "Senior Debt" in this
Article 12 are to Senior Debt of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the
case may be.

SECTION 12.02.    LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION, BANKRUPTCY

     (a)  Upon any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company or the
relevant Guarantor to creditors upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the Company or the relevant Guarantor or in a bankruptcy, reorganization,
receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or the relevant
Guarantor or its or their property or upon an assignment for the benefit of the
Company's or the relevant Guarantor's creditors or the marshaling of its or
their assets and liabilities, the holders of Senior Debt will be entitled to
receive payment in full in cash before the Holders of the Notes are entitled to
receive any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, including on,
the Notes, except that Holders of Notes may receive and retain such payments
made in Permitted Junior Securities and payments from the trust described in
Article 8 hereof.

     (b)  Until the Senior Debt is paid in full in cash, any distribution to
which Holders of the Notes would be entitled but for this Article 12 will be
made to holders of the Senior Debt as their interests may appear (except that
Holders of Notes may receive and retain payments made in Permitted Junior
Securities and payments and other distributions made from the trust described in
Article 8 hereof; provided that (i) no Holder of the Notes shall have the right
to receive and retain any such Permitted Junior Securities if the existence of
such right would have the effect of causing the Notes to be treated in the same
class of claims as the Senior Debt of the Company or any class of claims which
is pari passu with such Senior Debt and (ii) holders of Senior Debt shall be
entitled to receive any cash payments made to any Holder of Notes on the account
of Permitted Junior Securities until all Obligations in respect of Senior Debt
have been paid in full in cash).

SECTION 12.03.    DEFAULT ON SENIOR DEBT

          The Company may not pay (except in Permitted Junior Securities or from
the trust described in Article 8 hereof) principal of, or premium, if any, or
interest on, the Notes, or make any deposit in respect of the Notes pursuant to
Section 8.04, and may not repurchase, redeem or otherwise retire any Notes
(collectively, "PAY THE NOTES") if (a) any principal, premium, interest or any
other amount payable in respect of any Senior Debt is not paid within any
applicable grace period (including at maturity) or (b) any other default on
Senior Debt occurs and the maturity of such Senior Debt is accelerated in
accordance with its terms unless, in either case, (1) the default has been cured
or waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or (2) such Senior Debt
has been paid in full in

                                       85
<Page>

cash; provided, however, that the Company may pay the Notes without regard to
the foregoing if the Company and the Trustee receive written notice approving
such payment from the Representative of the holders of such Senior Debt or, if
there is no Representative, from the holders of such Senior Debt.

          During the continuance of any default (other than a default described
in clause (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence) with respect to any Designated
Senior Debt pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated
immediately without further notice (except any notice required to effect the
acceleration) or the expiration of any applicable grace period, the Company may
not pay the Notes for a period (a "PAYMENT BLOCKAGE PERIOD") commencing upon the
receipt by the Company and the Trustee of written notice of such default from
the Representative of the holders of such Designated Senior Debt or, if there is
no Representative, from the holders of such Designated Senior Debt, specifying
an election to effect a Payment Blockage Period (a "PAYMENT BLOCKAGE NOTICE")
and ending 179 days thereafter (unless such Payment Blockage Period is earlier
terminated by written notice to the Trustee and the Company from the
Representative of the holders of such Designated Senior Debt or, if there is no
Representative, from the holders of such Designated Senior Debt that gave such
Payment Blockage Notice because (a) such default is no longer continuing or (b)
because such Designated Senior Debt has been repaid in full in cash). Not more
than one Payment Blockage Notice with respect to all issues of Designated Senior
Debt may be given in any consecutive 360-day period, irrespective of the number
of defaults with respect to one or more issues of Designated Senior Debt during
such period. No non-payment default that existed or was continuing on the date
of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be the basis for
a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice. Following the expiration of any Payment
Blockage Period, the Company shall (unless otherwise prohibited as described in
the first two sentences of this paragraph) resume making any and all required
payments in respect of the Notes, including, without limitation, any missed
payments, unless the maturity of any Designated Senior Debt has been
accelerated, and such acceleration remains in full force and effect.

          If any Payment Blockage Notice is delivered to the Trustee by or on
behalf of the holders of Designated Senior Debt (other than the holders of Debt
under the Senior Credit Facility), a Representative of holders of Debt under the
Senior Credit Facility may still give another Payment Blockage Notice within the
same period.

          The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any
default in the payment of any Senior Debt or any acceleration under any Senior
Debt or under any agreement pursuant to which Senior Debt may have been issued.
Failure to give such notice shall not effect the subordination of the Notes to
the Senior Debt or the application of the other provisions provided in this
Article 12.

SECTION 12.04.    ACCELERATION OF PAYMENT OF SECURITIES.

          If payment of the Notes is accelerated when Designated Senior Debt is
outstanding, the Company may not pay the Notes until three Business Days after
the Representative of the holders of such Designated Senior Debt or, if there is
no Representative, the holders of such Designated Senior Debt receive notice of
such acceleration and, thereafter, may pay the Notes only if this Indenture
otherwise permits payment at that time.

SECTION 12.05.    WHEN DISTRIBUTION MUST BE PAID OVER.

          If a payment or distribution is made to Holders that because of this
Article 12 should not have been made to them, the Trustee or the Holders who
receive the distribution shall hold it in trust for holders of Senior Debt (pro
rata as to each of such holders of Senior Debt on the basis of the respective
amounts of Senior Debt paid to them) and pay it over to them or their
Representative as their interests may appear.

SECTION 12.06.    SUBROGATION

          After all Senior Debt is paid in full and until the Notes are paid in
full, Holders shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Debt that
is pari passu with the Notes) to the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive
distributions applicable to Senior Debt to the extent that distributions
otherwise payable to the Holders have been applied to the payment of Senior
Debt. A distribution made under this Article 12 to holders of Senior Debt that
otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between the Company and
Holders, a payment by the Company on such Senior Debt.

SECTION 12.07.    RELATIVE RIGHTS

          This Article 12 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of
Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

     (a)  impair, as between the Company and Holders, the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on, the Notes in accordance with their terms;

     (b)  affect the relative rights of Holders and creditors of the Company
other then their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt; or

     (c)  prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its available
remedies upon a Default or an Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders
of Senior Debt to receive distributions otherwise payable to Holders.

SECTION 12.08.    SUBORDINATION MAY NOT BE IMPAIRED BY COMPANY

          No right of any holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of
the Debt evidenced by the Notes shall be impaired by any act or failure to act
by the Company or by its failure to comply with this Indenture.

SECTION 12.09.    RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE AND PAYING AGENT

          Notwithstanding Section 12.03, the Trustee or Paying Agent may
continue to make payments on the Notes and shall not be charged with knowledge
of the existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any such payments
unless, not less than two Business Days prior to the date of such payment, a
Responsible Officer receives notice satisfactory to it that payments may not be
made under this Article 12. The Company, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, a
Representative or a holder of Senior Debt may give the notice; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that, if an issue of Senior Debt has a Representative, only the
Representative may give the notice.

          The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior
Debt with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. The Registrar
and the Paying Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee shall be
entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 12 with respect to any
Senior Debt that may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other
holder of such Senior Debt; and nothing in Article 7 shall deprive the Trustee
of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article 12 shall apply to
claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07.

SECTION 12.10.    DISTRIBUTION OR NOTICE TO REPRESENTATIVE

          Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of
Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their
Representative (if any).

SECTION 12.11.    ARTICLE 12 NOT TO PREVENT EVENTS OF DEFAULT OR LIMIT RIGHT TO
ACCELERATE

          Nothing in this Article 12 shall prevent an Event of Default in
accordance with Article 6 or have any effect on the right of the Holders or the
Trustee to accelerate the maturity of the Notes or to exercise the rights and
remedies in Article 6.

SECTION 12.12.    TRUST MONEYS NOT SUBORDINATED

          Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, payments
from cash or the proceeds of non-callable U.S. Government Securities held in
trust under Article 8 by the Trustee for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes shall not be subordinated to the prior payment of any
Senior Debt or subject to the restrictions set forth in this Article 12, and
none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any such amount to the
Company or any holder of Senior Debt or any other creditor of the Company.

                                       87

SECTION 12.13.    TRUSTEE ENTITLED TO RELY

          Upon any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 12, the
Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree
of a court of competent jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature
referred to in Section 12.02 are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the
liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution
to the Trustee or to the Holders or (c) upon a certificate of the Representative
of the holders of Senior Debt or, if there is no Representative, the holders of
Senior Debt for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate
in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Debt and other Debt of
the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid
or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article
12. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that evidence is
required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Debt to
participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 12, the
Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Debt held by such
Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such
payment or distribution and other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person
under this Article 12, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may
defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right
of such Person to receive such payment. The provisions of Section 7.01 and 7.02
shall be applicable to all actions or omissions of actions by the Trustee
pursuant to this Article 12.

SECTION 12.14.    TRUSTEE TO EFFECTUATE SUBORDINATION

          Each Holder by accepting a Note authorizes and directs the Trustee on
his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge
or effectuate the subordination between the Holders and the holders of Senior
Debt as provided in this Article 12 and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact
for any and all such purposes.

SECTION 12.15.    TRUSTEE NOT FIDUCIARY FOR HOLDERS OF SENIOR DEBT

          The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the
holders of Senior Debt and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall
mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders or the Company or any other Person,
money or assets to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by virtue
of this Article 12 or otherwise, except if such mistake was the result of the
Trustee's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 12.16.    RELIANCE BY HOLDERS OF SENIOR DEBT ON SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS

          Each Holder by accepting a Note acknowledges and agrees that the
foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement
and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Debt, whether such Senior Debt
was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Notes, to acquire
and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Debt and such holder
of such Senior Debt shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such
subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing
to hold, such Senior Debt.

                                   ARTICLE 13.

SECTION 13.01.    TRUST INDENTURE ACT CONTROLS.

          If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with
another provision which is required to be included in this Indenture by the TIA,
the provision required by the TIA shall control.

Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the April 1 or

interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and
interest and Special Interest, if any, at the office or agency of the Company
maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Company, payment of
interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth

the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb). The
Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture
and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this

aggregate principal amount of the Notes initially issued under the Indenture

Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to such
redemption. Any such redemption shall be made within 90 days after the
consummation of such Equity Offering.

     (c)  At any time prior to April 15, 2008, the Company may redeem all or any
portion of the Notes, at once or over time, after giving the required notice
under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture.

     6.   MANDATORY REDEMPTION. Except as set forth in Sections 4.12 and 4.18 of
the Indenture, the Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or
sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

     (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder shall have the
right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or
an integral multiple of $1,000) of such Holder's Notes (a "CHANGE OF CONTROL
OFFER") at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal
amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special
Interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the purchase date (subject to the
right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest to,
but excluding, the purchase date).

     (b) If the Parent, the Company or one of their respective Restricted
Subsidiaries consummates any Asset Sales, within 30 days of the date on which
the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Company shall
commence an offer to all Holders of Notes and all Holders of other Debt that is

the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of
sales of assets (a "PREPAYMENT OFFER") pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture
to purchase

                                       A-4

PARI PASSU Debt that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer
price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and
unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing
of such offer in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To
the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes (including Additional Notes) and
other PARI PASSU Debt tendered pursuant to a Prepayment Offer is less than the
Excess Proceeds, the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary) may use such
deficiency for any purpose not prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate
principal amount of Notes and other PARI PASSU Indebtedness surrendered by
Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select
the Notes to be purchased on a PRO RATA basis. Holders of Notes that are the
subject of an offer to purchase will receive a Prepayment Offer from the Company
prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by
completing the form entitled "Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse
of the Notes.

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

     9.   DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form
without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.

from time to time endorsed hereon and the aggregate principal amount of Notes
represented hereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as
appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions.](1) The transfer of Notes may
be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The
Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish
appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a

in part for one or more Global Notes only (i) on or after the termination of the
Distribution Compliance Period and (ii) upon presentation of certificates

March 30, 2004, relating to the sale of the Initial Notes, to the extent that
such provision was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this
Indenture or the Notes.

     12.  DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Each of the following is an Event of Default
under the Indenture: failure to make the payment of any interest on the Notes
when the same becomes due and payable, and such failure continues for a period
of 30 days; failure to make the payment of any principal of, or premium, if any,
on, any of the Notes when the same becomes due and payable at its Stated
Maturity, upon acceleration, redemption, optional redemption, required
repurchase or otherwise; failure to comply with Section 5.01 of the Indenture;
failure to comply with any other covenant or agreement in the Notes or in the
Indenture (other than a failure that is the subject of the foregoing clauses),
and such failure continues for 30 days after written notice is given to the
Company by the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding specifying such default,
demanding that it be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of
Default"; a default under any Debt by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary
that results in acceleration of the maturity of such Debt, or failure to pay any
such Debt at maturity, in an aggregate amount greater than $10.0 million or its
foreign currency equivalent at the time; any final judgment or judgments for the
payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of $10.0 million (or its
foreign currency equivalent at the time) (net of any amounts that a reputable
and creditworthy insurance company shall have acknowledged liability for in
writing) that shall be rendered against the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary
and that shall not be waived, satisfied or discharged for any period of 30
consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement shall not be in effect; any
Guarantee of the Parent or a Significant Restricted Subsidiary or a group of
Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant
Restricted Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in
accordance with the terms of such Guarantee) or any Guarantor denies or
disaffirms its obligations under its Guarantee; and certain events of
bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization affecting the Company or any of its
Significant Restricted Subsidiaries.

     If 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 described in the Indenture, 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 aggregate 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 notice of any continuing Default or Event
of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of
principal or interest or Special 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 on, or the principal of,
the Notes. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a
statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is required
upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the
Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

     13.  TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. Subject to certain limitations, the
Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company
with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

     14.  NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or of any
Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the

                                       A-6
<Page>

Company or any Guarantor under the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees 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.

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

     16.  ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a
Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (=

     17.  ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF RESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES AND RESTRICTED
DEFINITIVE NOTES. In addition to the rights provided to Holders of Notes under
the Indenture, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive
Notes that are Initial Notes shall have all the rights set forth in the
Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of April 6, 2004, among the Company, the

rights agreement, if any, among the Company and the other parties thereto,
relating to rights given by the Company to the purchasers of any Additional
Notes.

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

pledge or otherwise transfer the Notes or any interest therein except in

          2.      We understand that the offer and sale of the Notes have not
been registered under the Securities Act, and that the Notes and any interest
therein may not be offered or sold except as permitted in the following
sentence. We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of any accounts for which we
are acting as hereinafter stated, that if we should sell the Notes or any
interest therein, we will do so only (A) to the Company or any subsidiary
thereof, (B) in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act to a
"qualified institutional buyer" (as defined therein), (C) to an institutional
"accredited investor" (as defined below) that, prior to such transfer, furnishes
(or has furnished on its behalf by a U.S. broker-dealer) to you and to the
Company a signed letter substantially in the form of this letter and, if such
transfer is in respect of a principal amount of Notes, at the time of transfer
of less than $250,000, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to

this paragraph a notice advising such purchaser that resales thereof are
restricted as stated herein.

          3.      We understand that, on any proposed resale of the Notes or
beneficial interest therein, we will be required to furnish to you and the
Company such certifications, legal opinions and other information as you and the
Company may reasonably require to confirm that the proposed sale complies with
the foregoing restrictions. We further understand that the Notes purchased by us
will bear a legend to the foregoing effect.

          4.      We are an institutional "accredited investor" (as defined in
Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act) and
have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and
we and any accounts for which we are acting are each able to bear the economic

purchased by us for our own account or for one or more accounts (each of which
is an institutional "accredited investor") as to each of which we exercise sole
investment discretion and are not acquiring the Notes with a view to any
distribution thereof in a transaction that would violate the Securities Act of
the securities laws of any state of the United States or any other applicable
jurisdiction.
