                               DAVOX CORPORATION

                      PRESIDENT & CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

                              SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

  Davox Corporation ("Davox") will extend to you a severance package such that,
  in the event of your termination from employment without cause or in the event
  there is a change in control of the company that results in the demotion of
  your title, change in responsibilities, relocation of the company by more than
  fifty (50) miles or removal from the Board of Directors.  Without cause shall
  mean for any reason other than:

     (a)  illegal acts (other than minor traffic violations, misdemeanors, or
          other acts that do not result in criminal conviction) including
          convictions for theft or embezzlement.

     (b)  Material violation of published written policies of the company that
          if broken would have a material negative impact on the company.

     (c)  Irresponsible, unauthorized acts of a willful nature in the
          performance of duties that have a substantial financial impact on the
          company.

     This severance package will provide you with medical / dental benefits
     continuation coverage and compensation at the rate equal to your current
     base salary in effect at the time of such termination, plus an amount equal
     to the actual earned bonus paid during the previous twelve months prior to
     the date of termination.  This compensation and benefits continuation
     (severance package) will be payable for a period of twelve months from the
     date of separation from employment or until such time you acquire other
     employment, whichever comes sooner.

Following the effective date of termination, as set forth in writing and
furnished to you by Davox, your employment with Davox shall cease and you shall
not hold yourself as an employee, agent, or representative of Davox.

Continuation of salary and benefits shall further be subject to your compliance
with any then existing company policies and such other terms as may be in effect
between you and Davox pertaining to the disclosure of confidential or
proprietary information.

Davox has final authority to determine all questions of eligibility to receive
benefits under this arrangement and to interpret and construe the terms of this
arrangement.

     more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

               (i)  Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note.
          Beneficial interests in any Global Note may be transferred to Persons
          who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a
          Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be
          delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this
          Section 2.06(b)(i).

               (ii) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in
          Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of
          beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(i) above,
          the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the
          Registrar either (A) (1) a written order from a Participant or an
          Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the
          Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to
          be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount
          equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and
          (2) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
          containing information regarding the Participant account to be
          credited with such increase or (B) (1) a written order from a
          Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in
          accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to
          cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the
          beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2)
          instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing
          information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note
          shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in
          (1) above. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer
          or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this
          Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities
          Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant
          Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.06(g) hereof.

          (c)  Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests for Definitive
     Notes. If any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note proposes to
     exchange such beneficial interest for a Definitive Note or to transfer such
     beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a
     Definitive Note, then, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
     Section 2.06(b)(ii) hereof, the Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal
     amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced accordingly pursuant to
     Section 2.06(g) hereof, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
     authenticate and deliver to the Person designated in the instructions a
     Definitive Note in the appropriate principal amount. Any Definitive Note
     issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section
     2.06(c) shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized
     denomination or denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest
     shall instruct the Registrar through instructions from the Depositary and
     the Participant or Indirect Participant. The Trustee shall deliver such
     Definitive Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so
     registered.

                                     -10-
<PAGE>

     (d)  Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Beneficial Interests. A
Holder of an Definitive Note may exchange such Note for a beneficial interest in
a Global Note or transfer such Definitive Notes to a Person who takes delivery
thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note at any time. Upon
receipt of a request for such an exchange or transfer, the Trustee shall cancel
the applicable Definitive Note and increase or cause to be increased the
aggregate principal amount of one of the Global Notes.

     (e)  Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Definitive Notes. Upon
request by a Holder of Definitive Notes and such Holder's compliance with the
provisions of this Section 2.06(e), the Registrar shall register the transfer or
exchange of Definitive Notes. Prior to such registration of transfer or
exchange, the requesting Holder shall present or surrender to the Registrar the
Definitive Notes duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by such Holder or
by its attorney, duly authorized in writing.

     (f)  Legends. Each Global Note shall bear a legend in substantially the
following form:

     "THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE
     GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE
     BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY
     CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS
     MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.01 OF THE INDENTURE, (II) THIS GLOBAL
     NOTE MAY BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06(a)
     OF THE INDENTURE, (III) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE TRUSTEE
     FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.11 OF THE INDENTURE AND (IV) THIS
     GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY WITH THE PRIOR
     WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE COMPANY."

     (g)  Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all
beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for
Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or
canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or
retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At
any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note
is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in
the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive
Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be
reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the
Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such
reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred
to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest
in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be increased accordingly
and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the
Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

     (h)  General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

          (i)  To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive
Notes upon the Company's order or at the Registrar's request.

                                     -11-
<PAGE>

     (ii)   No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest
in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection
therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge
payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 4.06,
hereof).

     (iii)  The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or
exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the
unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

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

     (v)  The Company shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the
transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under
Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection,
(B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being
redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note
between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

     (vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any
Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in
whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the
purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for
all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

     (vii)  The Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof.

     (viii) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to
be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a
registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

Section 2.07  Replacement Notes.

     If the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or
wrongfully taken or if such Note is mutilated and is surrendered to the Trustee,
the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if
the Trustee's and the Company's requirements are met.  If required by the
Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is
sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the
Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that
any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.  The Company may charge for its
expenses in replacing a Note.

                                     -12-
<PAGE>

     Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and shall
be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately
with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.08  Outstanding Notes.

     The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the
Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation,
those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in
accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section as
not outstanding.  Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not
cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds
the Note.

     If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

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

     Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be
outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note.

     If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate
of any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date or maturity date, money sufficient
to pay Notes, including accrued and unpaid interest, 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 an Affiliate of the Company shall be considered as though they are
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 Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and
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.  Without unreasonable delay,
the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes in
exchange for temporary Notes.  Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to
all of the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 2.11  Cancellation.

     The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.
The Registrar, Paying Agent and Conversion Agent shall forward to the Trustee
any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.
The Trustee and no one else shall promptly cancel all Notes surrendered for
registration of transfer, exchange, payment, conversion, replacement or
cancellation and shall destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention
requirement of the Exchange Act).  Certification of the destruction of all
canceled Notes shall be delivered to the Company.
<PAGE>

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  Defaulted Interest.

     If the Company fails to make a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall
pay such defaulted interest plus any interest payable on the defaulted interest,
in any lawful manner.  It may pay such defaulted interest, plus any such
interest payable on it, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special
record date.  The Company shall fix any such record date and payment date,
provided that no such record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the
related payment date for such defaulted interest.  At least 15 days before any
such record date, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice that states the
special record date, the related payment date and amount of such interest to be
paid.

Section 2.13  CUSIP Numbers.

     The Company in issuing the Notes may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally
in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices of
redemption and other notices as a convenience to Holders of Notes; provided,
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 a Change in Control Offer and that
reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the
Notes, and any redemption or Change in Control Offer shall not be affected by
any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Company will promptly notify the
Trustee of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

                                 ARTICLE III.

                                  REDEMPTION

Section 3.01  Notices to Trustee.

     If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption
provisions of the Notes and Section 3.07 hereof, it shall notify the Trustee of
the redemption date (a "Redemption Date") and the principal amount of Notes to
be redeemed.  The Company shall give the notice provided for in this Section
3.01 at least 30 days but no more than 60 days before the Redemption Date,
unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee.  The
Company may not give notice of any redemption if the Company has defaulted in
payment of interest and the default is continuing.

Section 3.02  Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed.

     If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, selection of
Notes shall be made by the Trustee on a pro rata basis or by lot or by a method
that complies with the requirements of any exchange on which the Notes are
listed and that the Trustee considers fair and appropriate, provided that no
Notes of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.  The Trustee shall make the
selection not more than 60 days and not less than 30 days before the Redemption
Date from Notes outstanding not previously called for redemption.  Notes and
portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples
of $1,000.  Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for
redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.  The Trustee
shall notify the Company promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes to be called
for redemption.

                                     -14-
<PAGE>

     If any Note selected for partial redemption is converted in part after such
selection, the converted portion of such Note shall be deemed (so far as may be)
to be the portion to be selected for redemption.  The Notes (or portions
thereof) so selected shall be deemed duly selected for redemption for all
purposes hereunder, notwithstanding that any such Note is converted in whole or
in part before the mailing of the notice of redemption.  Upon any redemption of
less than all the Notes, the Company and the Trustee may treat as outstanding
any Notes surrendered for conversion during the period 15 days next preceding
the mailing of a notice of redemption and need not treat as outstanding any Note
authenticated and delivered during such period in exchange for the unconverted
portion of any Note converted in part during such period.

Section 3.03  Notice of Redemption.

     At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the
Company shall mail, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder
whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address.  The notice shall
identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

          (a)  the Redemption Date;

          (b)  the redemption price;

          (c)  if any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the
     principal amount thereof redeemed, and that, after the Redemption Date,
     upon surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the
     unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder
     thereof 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 plus accrued interest, if any;

          (f)  that interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on
     and after the Redemption Date;

          (g)  the paragraph of the Notes pursuant to which the Notes called for
     redemption are being redeemed; and

          (h)  the "CUSIP" number of the Notes to be redeemed.

     Such notice shall also state the current Conversion Price and the date on
which the right to convert such Notes or portions thereof into Class A Common
Stock of the Company will expire.

     At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give notice of redemption in
the Company's name and at the Company's expense; provided that the Company shall
have delivered to the Trustee, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, an
Officers' Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting
forth the information to be stated in such notice, as provided in the preceding
paragraph.

                                     -15-
<PAGE>

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 become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the
price set forth in the Note.  A notice of redemption may not be conditional.

Section 3.05  Deposit of Redemption Price.

     On or before the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the
Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of
and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date unless theretofore
converted into Class A Common Stock pursuant to the provisions hereof.  The
Trustee or the Paying Agent shall return to the Company any money not required
for that purpose.

     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 redemption.  If a Note is redeemed on or after
an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date,
then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name
such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date.  If any
Note called for redemption shall not be 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.

Section 3.06  Notes Redeemed in Part.

     Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue
and 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.

     The Company may redeem all or any portion of the Notes, upon the terms and
at the redemption prices set forth in the Notes.  Any redemption pursuant to
this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.01
through 3.06 hereof.

Section 3.08  Mandatory Redemption

     The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments or
sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

Section 3.09  Change in Control Offer.

          (a)  In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.06 hereof, the Company
     shall commence an offer to all Holders of the Notes to purchase Notes (the
     "Change in Control Offer"), the Company shall follow the procedures in this
     Section 3.09.

          (b)  The Change in Control Offer shall remain open for a period
     specified by the Company which shall be no less than 30 calendar days and
     no more than 60 calendar days following its commencement (the "Commencement
     Date") (as determined in accordance with

                                     -16-
<PAGE>

     Section 4.06 hereof), except to the extent that a longer period is required
     by applicable law (the "Tender Period"). Upon the expiration of the Tender
     Period (the "Purchase Date"), the Company shall purchase the principal
     amount of all of the Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Section
     4.06 hereof (the "Offer Amount").

          (c)  If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or
     before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued interest shall be
     paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of
     business on such Record Date, and no additional interest will be payable to
     Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Change in Control Offer.

          (d)  The Company shall provide the Trustee with notice of the Change
     in Control Offer at least 10 days before the Commencement Date.

          (e)  On or before the 30th day after the Change in Control, the
     Company or the Trustee (at the expense of the Company) shall send, by first
     class mail, a notice to each of the Holders, which shall govern the terms
     of the Change in Control Offer and shall state:

               (i)   that the Change in Control Offer is being made pursuant to
          this Section 3.09 and Section 4.06 hereof, that all Notes validly
          tendered will be accepted for payment and the length of time the
          Change in Control Offer will remain open;

               (ii)  the purchase price (as determined in accordance with
          Section 4.06 hereof) and the Purchase Date, and that all Notes
          tendered will be accepted for payment;

               (iii) that any Note or portion thereof not tendered or accepted
          for payment will continue to accrue interest;

               (iv)  that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the
          purchase price, any Note or portion thereof accepted for payment
          pursuant to the Change in Control Offer will cease to accrue interest
          after the Purchase Date;

               (v)   that Holders electing to have a Note or portion thereof
          purchased pursuant to any Change in Control Offer will be required to
          surrender the Note, with the form entitled "Option of Holder to Elect
          Purchase upon a Change in Control" on the reverse of the Note
          completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice
          prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the
          Purchase Date;

               (vi)  that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if
          the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the
          Business Day preceding the Purchase Date, or such longer period as may
          be required by law, a letter or facsimile transmission (receipt of
          which is confirmed and promptly followed by a letter) setting forth
          the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note or portion
          thereof the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such
          Holder is withdrawing his election to have the Note or portion thereof
          purchased;

               (vii) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will
          be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased
          portion of the Notes
<PAGE>

          surrendered, which unpurchased portion shall be equal to $1,000 or an
          integral multiple thereof in principal amount; and

               (viii)  the "CUSIP" number of the Notes to be purchased.

          (f)  On or prior to the Purchase Date, the Company shall irrevocably
     deposit with the Trustee or a Paying Agent in immediately available funds
     an amount equal to the Offer Amount to be held for payment in accordance
     with the terms of this Section 3.09.  On the Purchase Date, the Company
     shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment the Notes or portions
     thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change in Control Offer and
     deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating such Notes or
     portions thereof have been accepted for payment by the Company in
     accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09.  The Paying Agent shall
     promptly (but in any case not later than ten (10) calendar days after the
     Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder, or, if any Holder
     requests in writing, wire transfer immediately available funds to an
     account previously specified in writing by such Holder to the Company and
     the Paying Agent, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes
     tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the
     Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail or deliver to such Holders a
     new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Note
     surrendered.  Any Notes not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or
     delivered by or on behalf of the Company to the Holder thereof.  The
     Company will publicly announce in a newspaper of general circulation the
     results of the Change in Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after
     the Purchase Date.

          (g)  The Change in Control Offer shall be made by the Company in
     compliance with all applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and all
     applicable tender offer rules promulgated thereunder, and shall include all
     instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender their
     Notes.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
     regulations conflict with the Change in Control provisions of this Section
     3.09, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and
     regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under
     the Change in Control provisions of the Indenture by virtue of such
     conflict.

                                  ARTICLE IV.

     The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of
each fiscal year of the Company, an Officers' Certificate stating that a review
of the activities of the Company and its

                                     -18-
<PAGE>

subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the
supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the
Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under, and
complied with the covenants and conditions contained in, this Indenture, and
further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the
best of his knowledge the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled
each and every covenant, and complied with the covenants and conditions
contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or
observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or
Events of Default of which he may have knowledge) and that to the best of his
knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which
payments on account of the principal or of interest, if any, on the Notes are
prohibited.

     One of the Officers signing such Officers' Certificate shall be either the
Company's principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal
accounting officer.

     The Company will, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to
the Trustee forthwith upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an
Officers' Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default.

Section 4.03  Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.

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

Section 4.04  Corporate Existence.

     Subject to Article VII hereof, to the extent permitted by law the Company
will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full
force and effect its corporate existence and the corporate, partnership or other
existence of each subsidiary of the Company in accordance with the respective
organizational documents of each subsidiary and the rights (charter and
statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise,
or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any subsidiary, if the
preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of
the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

Section 4.05  Taxes.

     The Company shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, pay prior
to delinquency all material taxes, assessments and governmental levies, except
as contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure
to effect such payment would not have a material adverse effect on the Company
and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 4.06  Change in Control.

     Upon the occurrence of a Change in 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 thereof) of such Holder's
<PAGE>

Notes on a date fixed by the Company that is no earlier than 30 nor later than
60 days from the date the Company gives notice of the Change in Control. The
Company shall be required to make a Change in Control Offer for an amount of
cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes on the Purchase Date,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any to the Purchase Date (the "Change in
Control Payment").

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make a
Change in Control Offer if a third party makes an offer to purchase the Notes in
the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements of
Section 3.09 that the Company would otherwise be required to make and that third
party purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn in such
offer.

                                  ARTICLE V.
                                  CONVERSION

Section 5.01  Conversion Privilege.

     A Holder of a Note may convert it into fully paid and nonassessable shares
of Class A Common Stock at any time after 90 days following the Issuance Date
and prior to maturity at the Conversion Price then in effect, except that, with
respect to any Note called for redemption, such conversion right shall terminate
at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the
Redemption Date (unless the Company shall default in making the redemption
payment when it becomes due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate
on the date such default is cured).  The number of shares of Class A Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of a Note is determined by dividing the principal
amount of such Note by the conversion price in effect on the Conversion Date
(the "Conversion Price").

     The initial Conversion Price is stated in Section 12 of the Notes and is
subject to adjustment as provided in this Article V.

     A Holder may convert a portion of a Note equal to any integral multiple of
$1,000.  Provisions of this Indenture that apply to conversion of all of a Note
also apply to conversion of a portion of it.

Section 5.02  Conversion Procedure.

     To convert a Note, a Holder must satisfy the requirements in Section 11 of
the Notes.  The date on which the Holder satisfies all of those requirements is
the conversion date (the "Conversion Date").  As soon as practicable after the
Conversion Date, the Company shall deliver to the Holder through the Conversion
Agent a certificate for the number of whole shares of Class A Common Stock
issuable upon the conversion and a check for any fractional share determined
pursuant to Section 5.03 hereof.  The Person in whose name the certificate is
registered shall become the stockholder of record on the Conversion Date and, as
of such date, such Person's rights as a Holder shall cease; provided, however,
that no surrender of a Note on any date when the stock transfer books of the
Company shall be closed shall be effective to constitute the Person entitled to
receive the shares of Class A Common Stock upon such conversion as the
stockholder of record of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date, but
such surrender shall be effective to constitute the Person entitled to receive
such shares of Class A Common Stock as the stockholder of record thereof for all
purposes at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock
transfer books are open; provided further, however, that such conversion shall
be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date that such Note shall have been
surrendered for conversion, as if the stock transfer books of the Company had
not been closed.

                                     -20-
<PAGE>

     No payment or other adjustment shall be made for accrued interest or
dividends on any Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes.  If
any Notes are converted during any period after any Record Date for the payment
of an installment of interest but before the next Interest Payment Date,
interest for such notes will be paid on the next Interest Payment Date,
notwithstanding such conversion, to the Holders of such Notes.  Any Notes that
are, however, delivered to the Company for conversion after any Record Date but
before the next Interest Payment Date must, except as described in the next
sentence, be accompanied by a payment equal to the interest payable on such
Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of Notes being converted.  The
payment to the Company described in the preceding sentence shall not be required
if, during that period between a Record Date and the next Interest Payment Date,
a conversion occurs on or after the date that the Company has issued a
redemption notice and prior to the date of redemption stated in such notice.  No
fractional shares will be issued upon conversion, but a cash adjustment will be
made for any fractional shares.

     If a Holder converts more than one Note at the same time, the number of
whole shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the conversion shall be based
on the total principal amount of Notes converted.

     Upon surrender of a Note that is converted in part, the Trustee shall
authenticate for the Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to the
unconverted portion of the Note surrendered.

Section 5.03  Fractional Shares.

     The Company will not issue fractional shares of Class A Common Stock upon
conversion of a Note.  In lieu thereof, the Company will pay an amount in cash
based upon the Daily Market Price of the Class A Common Stock on the trading day
prior to the date of conversion.

Section 5.04  Taxes on Conversion.

     The issuance of certificates for shares of Class A Common Stock upon the
conversion of any Note shall be made without charge to the converting Holder for
such certificates or for any tax in respect of the issuance of such
certificates, and such certificates shall be issued in the respective names of,
or in such names as may be directed by, the Holder or Holders of the converted
Note; provided, however, that in the event that certificates for shares of Class
A Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder of
the Note converted, such Note, when surrendered for conversion, shall be
accompanied by an instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company,
duly executed by the registered holder thereof or his duly authorized attorney;
and provided further, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any
tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and
delivery of any such certificates in a name other than that of the Holder of the
converted Note, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such
certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance
thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have
established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid or is
not applicable.

Section 5.05  Company to Provide Stock.

     The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from
preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock,
solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of Notes as herein provided,
a sufficient number of shares of Class A Common Stock to permit the conversion
of all outstanding Notes for shares of Class A

                                     -21-
<PAGE>

Common Stock. All shares of Class A Common Stock which may be issued upon
conversion of the Notes shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable when so issued .

Section 5.06  Adjustment of Conversion Price.

     The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
     follows:

          (a) Stock split and combinations. In case the Company, at any time or
     from time to time after the issuance date of the Notes (a) subdivides or
     splits the outstanding shares of its Class A Common Stock, (b) combines or
     reclassifies the outstanding shares of its Class A Common Stock into a
     smaller number of shares or (c) issues by reclassification of the shares of
     its Class A Common Stock any shares of its capital stock, then the
     Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to that event or the record
     date for that event, whichever is earlier, will be adjusted so that the
     holder of any Notes thereafter surrendered for conversion will be entitled
     to receive the number of shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock or of
     its other securities which the Holder would have owned or have been
     entitled to receive after the occurrence of any of the events described
     above, had those Notes been surrendered for conversion immediately before
     the occurrence of that event or the record date for that event, whichever
     is earlier;

          (b) Stock Dividends in Class A Common Stock. In case the Company, at
     any time or from time to time after the issuance date of the Notes, pays a
     dividend or make a distribution in shares of its Class A Common Stock on
     any class of its capital stock other than dividends or distributions of
     shares of Class A Common Stock or other securities with respect to which
     adjustments are provided in paragraph (1) above or with respect to payments
     of interest or dividend obligations with respect to a particular series of
     capital stock in accordance with the terms of such capital stock, the
     Conversion Price will be adjusted so that the Holder of each Note will be
     entitled to receive, upon conversion of that Note, the number of shares of
     the Company's Class A Common Stock determined by multiplying (a) the
     Conversion Price by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which will be the
     number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding and the denominator of
     which will be the sum of that number of shares and the total number of
     shares issued in that dividend or distribution;

          (c) Issuance of rights or warrants. In case the Company issues to all
     holders of its Class A Common Stock rights or warrants entitling those
     holders to subscribe for or purchase its Class A Common Stock at a price
     per share less than the current market price, the Conversion Price in
     effect immediately before the close of business on the record date fixed
     for determination of shareholders entitled to receive those rights or
     warrants will be reduced by multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction,
     the numerator of which is the sum of the number of shares of the Company's
     Class A Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on that record
     date and the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that the aggregate
     offering price of the total number of shares of the Company's Class A
     Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at the
     Current Market Price and the denominator of which is the sum of the number
     of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on
     that record date and the number of additional shares of the Company's Class
     A Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase. For purposes of
     this paragraph (3), the issuance of rights or warrants to subscribe for or
     purchase securities convertible into shares of the Company's Class A Common
     Stock will be deemed to be the issuance of rights or warrants to purchase
     shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock into which those securities
     are convertible at an aggregate offering price equal to the sum of the
     aggregate offering price of those securities and the

                                     -22-
<PAGE>

     minimum aggregate amount, if any, payable upon conversion of those
     securities into shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. This
     adjustment will be made successively whenever any such event occurs;

          (d) Distribution of indebtedness, securities or assets. In case the
     Company distributes to all holders of its Class A Common Stock, whether by
     dividend or in a merger, amalgamation or consolidation or otherwise,
     evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock of any class or series,
     other securities, cash or assets, other than Class A Common Stock, rights
     or warrants referred to in paragraph (3) above or an ordinary dividend
     payable exclusively in cash and other than as a result of a Fundamental
     Change described in paragraph (5) below, the Conversion Price in effect
     immediately before the close of business on the record date fixed for
     determination of shareholders entitled to receive that distribution will be
     reduced by multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of
     which is the Current Market Price on that record date less the fair market
     value, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors, of the portion of
     those evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock, other securities,
     cash and assets so distributed applicable to one share of Class A Common
     Stock and the denominator of which is the Current Market Price. This
     adjustment will be made successively wherever any such event occurs;

          (e) Fundamental changes. If a Fundamental Change occurs, the Holder of
     each Note outstanding immediately before that Fundamental Change occurred,
     will have the right upon any subsequent conversion to receive, but only out
     of legally available funds, to the extent required by applicable law, the
     kind and amount of stock or other securities, cash and assets that that
     Holder would have received if that share had been converted immediately
     prior to the Fundamental Change.

Section 5.07  No Adjustment.

     No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required until cumulative
adjustments amount to 1% or more of the Conversion Price as last adjusted;
provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 5.07 are
not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any
subsequent adjustment.  All calculations under this Article V shall be made to
the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be.
No adjustment need be made for rights to purchase Class A Common Stock pursuant
to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends or interest.  No adjustment need
be made for a change in the par value or no par value of the Class A Common
Stock.

Section 5.08  Other Adjustments.

          (a) In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to
     Section 5.06 hereof, the Holder of any Note thereafter surrendered for
     conversion shall become entitled to receive any shares of Capital Stock of
     the Company other than shares of its Class A Common Stock, thereafter the
     Conversion Price of such other shares so receivable upon conversion of any
     Note shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on
     terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to
     Class A Common Stock contained in this Article V.

          (b) In the event that shares of Class A Common Stock are not delivered
     after the expiration of any of the rights or warrants referred to in
     Section 5.06(b) and Section 5.06(c) hereof, the Conversion Price shall be
     readjusted to the Conversion Price which would otherwise be in effect had
     the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made
     on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Class A Common
     Stock actually delivered.

                                     -23-
<PAGE>

Section 5.09  Adjustments for Tax Purposes.

     The Company may make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition
to those required by Section 5.06 hereof, as it determines in its discretion to
be advisable in order that any stock dividend, subdivision of shares,
distribution or rights to purchase stock or securities or distribution of
securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock made by the Company to its
stockholders will not be taxable to the recipients thereof.

Section 5.10  Notice of Adjustment.

     Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted, the Company shall promptly mail
to Holders at the addresses appearing on the Registrar's books a notice of the
adjustment and file with the Trustee an Officers' Certificate briefly stating
the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing it.  The
certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment.
Unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee shall receive written notice of
an adjustment of the Conversion Price, the Trustee may assume without inquiry
that the Conversion Price has not been adjusted and that the last Conversion
Price of which it has knowledge remains in effect.

Section 5.11  Notice of Certain Transactions.

     In the event that:

     (1) the Company takes any action which would require an adjustment in the
Conversion Price;

     (2) the Company takes any action that would require a supplemental
indenture pursuant to Section 5.12; or

     (3) there is a dissolution or liquidation of the Company;

the Company shall mail to Holders at the addresses appearing on the Registrar's
books and the Trustee a notice stating the proposed record or effective date, as
the case may be, to permit a Holder of a Note to convert such Note into shares
of Class A Common Stock prior to the Record Date for or the effective date of
the transaction in order to receive the rights, warrants, securities or assets
which a holder of shares of Class A Common Stock on that date may receive.  The
Company shall mail the notice at least 15 days before such date; however,
failure to mail such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity
of any transaction referred to in clause (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 5.11.

Section 5.12  Effect of Reclassifications, Consolidations, Mergers or Sales on
Conversion Privilege.

     If any of the following shall occur, namely: (i) any reclassification or
change of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
Notes (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or
from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination),
(ii) any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party other than a
merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not
result in any reclassification of, or change (other than a change in name, or
par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value
or as a result of a subdivision or combination) in, outstanding shares of Class
A Common Stock or (iii) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of
the property or business of the Company as an entirety, then the Company, or
such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall, as a
condition precedent to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger,
sale or conveyance, execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture
in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee

                                     -24-
<PAGE>

providing that the Holder of each Note then outstanding shall have the right to
convert such Note into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other
securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a Holder of the number of
shares of Class A Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of such Note
immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale
or conveyance. In the event that the shares of Class A Common Stock are
exchanged or substituted for other securities in connection with any such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, such
supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments of the Conversion Price
which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments of
the Conversion Price provided for in this Article V. The foregoing, however,
shall not in any way affect the right a Holder of a Note may otherwise have,
pursuant to subsection (e) of Section 5.06 hereof, to receive stock or other
securities, cash or assets upon conversion of a Note. If, in the case of any
such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, the stock or other securities
and property (including cash) receivable thereupon by a Holder of Class A Common
Stock includes shares of stock or other securities and property of a corporation
other than the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, then such supplemental indenture
shall also be executed by such other corporation and shall contain such
additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the Notes as
the Board of Directors of the Company shall reasonably consider necessary by
reason of the foregoing. The provision of this Section 5.12 shall similarly
apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

     In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to
this Section 5.12, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of shares
of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders of the
Notes upon the conversion of their Notes after any such reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and any adjustment to be made
with respect thereto.

Section 5.13  Trustee's Disclaimer.

     The Trustee has no duty to determine when an adjustment under this Article
V should be made, how it should be made or what such adjustment should be, but
may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such adjustment, and
shall be protected in relying upon, the Officers' Certificate with respect
thereto which the Company is obligated to file with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 5.10 hereof.  The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or
value of any securities or assets issued upon conversion of Notes, and the
Trustee shall not be responsible for the Company's failure to comply with any
provisions of this Article V.

     The Trustee shall not be under any responsibility to determine the
correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture executed
pursuant to Section 5.12, but may accept as conclusive evidence of the
correctness thereof, and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officers'
Certificate with respect thereto which the Company is obligated to file with the
Trustee pursuant to Section 5.12 hereof.

                                  ARTICLE VI.
                                 SUBORDINATION

Section 6.01  Agreement to Subordinate and Ranking.

     The Company, for itself and its successors, and each Holder, by its
acceptance of Notes, agree that the payment of the principal of or interest on
or any other amounts due on the Notes is subordinated in right of payment, to
the extent and in the manner stated in this Article VI, to the prior payment in
full

                                     -25-
<PAGE>

of all existing and future Senior Debt. The Notes shall rank pari passu with,
and shall not be senior in right of payment to, such other Indebtedness of the
Company, whether outstanding on the date of this Indenture or hereafter created,
incurred, issued or Guaranteed by the Company, where the instrument creating or
evidencing such Indebtedness expressly provides that such Indebtedness ranks
pari passu with or junior to the Notes.

Section 6.02  No Payment on Notes if Senior Debt in Default.

     Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, no payment on
account of principal of or redemption of, interest on or other amounts due on
the Notes, and no redemption, purchase, or other acquisition of the Notes, shall
be made by or on behalf of the Company if (i) a default in the payment of Senior
Debt occurs and is continuing beyond any applicable period of grace (a "Payment
Default"), or (ii) a default other than a Payment Default on any Senior Debt
occurs and is continuing that permits the Holders of Senior Debt to accelerate
its maturity, and the trustee receives notice of such default (a "Payment
Blockage Notice") from the Company or from any holders of Senior Debt or such
holder's representative (a "Non-Payment Default"), but only for the period (the
"Payment Blockage Period") commencing on the date of receipt of the Payment
Blockage Notice and ending (unless earlier terminated by notice given to the
Trustee by the holders of such Senior Debt) (a) in the case of a Payment
Default, upon the date on which such Payment Default is cured or waived or
ceases to exist, and (b) in the case of a Non-Payment Default, the earliest of
the date on which such Non-Payment Default is cured or waived or ceases to exist
or 180 days from the date notice is received, if the maturity of the Senior Debt
has not been accelerated.  Upon termination of the Payment Blockage Period,
payments on account of principal of or interest on the Notes (other than,
subject to Section 6.03 hereof, amounts due and payable by reason of the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes) and redemptions, purchases or other
acquisitions shall be made by or on behalf of the Company.  Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, (a) only one Payment Blockage Notice with
respect to the same Non-Payment Default or any other Non-Payment Default on the
same issue of Senior Debt existing or continuing at the time of such Payment
Blockage Notice may be given and (b) no new Payment Blockage Period may be
commenced by the Holder or holders of Senior Debt or their representative or
representatives, unless 360 consecutive days have elapsed since the initial
effectiveness of the immediately preceding Payment Blockage Notice.

     In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.02,
payments are made by or on behalf of the Company in contravention of the
provisions of this Section 6.02, such payments shall be held by the Trustee, any
Paying Agent or the Holders, as applicable, in trust for the benefit of, and
shall be paid over to and delivered to, the holders of Senior Debt or their
representative or the trustee under the indenture or other agreement (if any),
pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Debt may have been
issued for application to the payment of all Senior Debt ratably according to
the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior
Debt in full in accordance with the terms of such Senior Debt, after giving
effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior
Debt.

     The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and any Paying
Agent of any default or event of default under any Senior Debt or under any
agreement pursuant to which any Senior Debt may have been issued.

                                     -26-

Section 6.03 Distribution on Acceleration of Notes; Dissolution and
Reorganization; Subrogation of Notes.

     (a) If the Notes are declared due and payable because of the occurrence of
an Event of Default, the Company or the Trustee shall give prompt written notice
to the holders of all Senior Debt or to the trustee(s) for such Senior Debt of
such acceleration.

     (b) Upon (i) any acceleration of the principal amount due on the Notes
because of an Event of Default or (ii) any distribution of assets of the Company
upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company
(whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an
assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other dissolution, winding up,
liquidation or reorganization of the Company):

          (1) the holders of all Senior Debt shall first be entitled to receive
     payment in full of the principal thereof, the interest thereon and any
     other amounts due thereon before the Holders are entitled to receive
     payment on account of the principal of or interest on or any other amounts
     due on the Notes;

          (2) any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind
     or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holders
     or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article
     VI, shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person
     making such a payment or distribution, directly to the holders of Senior
     Debt (or their representatives(s) or trustee(s) acting on their behalf),
     ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of
     the principal of or interest on and other amounts due on the Senior Debt
     held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment in
     full of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any
     concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Debt; and

     In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or
distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash,
property or securities, shall be received by the Trustee or the Holders before
all Senior Debt is paid in full, such payment or distribution shall be held in
trust for the benefit of, and be paid over to upon request by a holder of the
Senior Debt, the holders of the Senior Debt remaining unpaid (or their
representatives) or trustee(s) acting on their behalf, ratably as aforesaid, for
application to the payment of such Senior Debt until all such Senior Debt shall
have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
distribution to the holders of such Senior Debt.

     After all Senior Debt is paid in full and until the Notes are paid in full,
Holders of Notes shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other
Indebtedness 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 of Notes have been applied to the
payment of Senior Debt.  A distribution made under this Article VI to holders of
Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders of Notes is not, as
between the Company and Holders, a payment by the Company on the Notes.

     Nothing contained in this Article VI or elsewhere in this Indenture or in
the Notes is intended to or shall (i) impair, as between the Company and its
creditors, other than the holders of Senior Debt, the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal of and
interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in
accordance with the terms of the Notes or (ii) affect the relative rights of the
Holders and creditors of the Company other than holders of Senior Debt or, as
between the Company and the Trustee, the obligations of the Company to

                                     -27-
<PAGE>

the Trustee, or (iii) prevent the Trustee or the Holders from exercising all
remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this
Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article VI of the holders
of Senior Debt in respect of cash, property and securities of the Company
received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

     Upon distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article VI,
the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 9.01 hereof, and the Holders
shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent
or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders for the
purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such
distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the
Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article VI.
The Trustee, however, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the
holders of Senior Debt.  Nothing contained in this Article VI or elsewhere in
this Indenture, or in any of the Notes, shall prevent the good faith application
by the Trustee of any moneys which were deposited with it hereunder, prior to
its receipt of written notice of facts which would prohibit such application,
for the purpose of the payment of or on account of the principal of or interest
on, the Notes unless, prior to the date on which such application is made by the
Trustee, the Trustee shall be charged with notice under Section 6.03(d) hereof
of the facts which would prohibit the making of such application.

     (c) The provisions of this Article VI shall not be applicable to any cash,
properties or securities received by the Trustee or by any Holder when received
as a holder of Senior Debt and nothing in Section 9.11 hereof or elsewhere in
this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee or such Holder of any of its rights as
such holder.

     (d) The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact
known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment of money to
or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes pursuant to the provisions of this
Article VI.  The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 9.01 hereof,
shall be entitled to assume that no such fact exists unless the Company or any
holder of Senior Debt or any trustee therefor has given such notice to the
Trustee.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article VI or any other
provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of
the existence of any fact which would prohibit the making of any payment of
monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes pursuant to the provisions
in this Article VI, unless, and until three Business Days after, the Trustee
shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or any Holder or
holders of Senior Debt or from any trustee therefor; and, prior to the receipt
of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section
9.01 hereof, shall be entitled in all respects conclusively to assume that no
such facts exist; provided that if on a date not less then three Business Days
immediately preceding the date upon which by the terms hereof any such monies
may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the principal
of or interest on any Note), the Trustee shall not have received with respect to
such monies the notice provided for in this Section 6.03(d), than anything
herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full
power and authority to receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose
for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary which may be received by it on or after such prior date.

     The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written
notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Debt (or a
trustee on behalf of such holder) to establish that such notice has been given
by a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee on behalf of any such holder or
holders).  In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further
evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of
Senior Debt to participate in any payment or distribution

                                     -28-
<PAGE>

pursuant to this Article VI, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish
evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of
Senior Debt held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to
participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the
rights of such Person under this Article VI, 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; nor shall
the Trustee be charged with knowledge of the curing or waiving of any default of
the character specified in Section 6.02 hereof or that any event or any
condition preventing any payment in respect of the Notes shall have ceased to
exist, unless and until the Trustee shall have received an Officers' Certificate
to such effect.

     (e) The provisions of this Section 6.03 applicable to the Trustee shall
also apply to any Paying Agent for the Company.

Section 6.04  Reliance by Senior Debt on Subordination Provisions.

     Each Holder of any Note by his acceptance thereof acknowledges and agrees
that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an
inducement and a consideration for 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 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.  Notice of any default in the payment of any Senior
Debt, except as expressly stated in this Article VI, and notice of acceptance of
the provisions hereof are hereby expressly waived.  Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, no waiver, forbearance or release by any holder of
Senior Debt under such Senior Debt or under this Article VI shall constitute a
release of any of the obligations or liabilities of the Trustee or Holders of
the Notes provided in this Article VI.

Section 6.05  No Waiver of Subordination Provisions.

     Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no right of any present or
future holder of any Senior Debt to enforce subordination as herein provided
shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to
act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith,
by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms,
provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof
any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

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

Section 6.06  Trustee's Relation to Senior Debt.

     The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights
set forth in this Article VI in respect of any Senior Debt at any time held by
it, to the same extent as any holder of Senior Debt, and nothing in Section 9.11
hereof or elsewhere in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its
rights as such holder.

     With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to
perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligation, as are
specifically set forth in this Article VI, and no implied covenants or
obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this
Indenture against the Trustee.  The Trustee shall not owe any fiduciary duty to
the holders of Senior Debt but shall have only such obligations to such holders
as are expressly set forth in this Article VI.

     Each Holder of a Note by his acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the
Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
effectuate the subordination provided in this Article VI and appoints the
Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes, including, in the
event of any dissolution, winding up or liquidation or reorganization under any
applicable bankruptcy law of the Company (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or
receivership proceedings or otherwise), the timely filing of a claim for the
unpaid balance of such Holder's Notes in the form required in such proceedings
and the causing of such claim to be approved.  If the Trustee does not file a
claim or proof of debt in the form required in such proceedings prior to 30 days
before the expiration of the time to file such claims or proofs, then any Holder
or holders of Senior Debt or their representative or representatives shall have
the right to demand, sue for, collect, receive and receipt for the payments and
distributions in respect of the Notes which are required to be paid or delivered
to the holders of Senior Debt as provided in this Article VI and to file and
prove all claims therefore and to take all such other action in the name of the
holders or otherwise, as such holders of Senior Debt or representative thereof
may determine to be necessary or appropriate for the enforcement of the
provisions of this Article VI.

Section 6.07  Other Provisions Subject Hereto.

     Expect as expressly stated in this Article VI, notwithstanding anything
contained in this Indenture to the contrary, all the provisions of this
Indenture and the Notes are subject to the provisions of this Article VI.
However, nothing in this Article VI shall apply to or adversely affect the
claims of, or payment, to, the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.07 hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to make a payment on account of
principal of or interest on the Notes by reason of any provision of this Article
VI shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event of Default
under Section 8.01 hereof.

                                 ARTICLE VII.
                                  SUCCESSORS

Section 7.01  Limitation on Merger, Sale or Consolidation.

     The Company may not, directly or indirectly, consolidate with or merge with
or into, or sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its
assets, on a consolidated basis, whether in a single transaction or a series of
related transactions, to another person or group of affiliated persons, unless:

                                      30
<PAGE>

          (a) the Company is the resulting or surviving corporation, or such
     successor, transferee or lessee, if other than the Company, is a
     corporation organized under the laws of the United States, any state
     thereof or the District of Columbia and expressly assumes the Obligations
     of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes by means of a
     supplemental indenture entered into with the Trustee; and

          (b) after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of
     Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

        Upon any permitted consolidation, merger conveyance, transfer or lease
of the Company's properties and assets in accordance with the foregoing, the
successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is
merged or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made, shall succeed to,
and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company
under the Indenture with the same effect as if such successor corporation had
been named therein in the same manner as the Company is named, and when a
successor corporation duly assumes all of the Obligations of the Company under
this Indenture and the Notes (except in the case of a lease), the Company will
be released from its Obligations and covenants under the Indenture and the
Notes, except as to any Obligations or covenants that arise from or as a result
of such transaction.

        For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer, by lease, assignment, sale
or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or
more Subsidiaries, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead
of such Subsidiary, would constitute all or substantially all of the Company's
properties and assets, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or
substantially all of the Company's properties and assets.

                                 ARTICLE VIII.
                             DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

     Indebtedness, that is not cured or withdrawn within 15 days after the date
     of written notice from the Trustee to the Company or from Holders of 25% in
     the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes to the Company

          (f) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is a Significant

Section 8.02  Acceleration.

     If an Event of  Default (other than an Event of Default specified in
clauses (f) or (g) of Section 8.01 hereof) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare
all the Notes to be due and payable.  Upon such declaration, the principal of
and interest on the Notes shall be due and payable immediately.  If an Event of
Default specified in clause (f) or (g) of Section 8.01 hereof occurs with
respect to the Company, such an amount shall ipso facto become and be
immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of
the Trustee or any Holder.  In addition, if an Event of Default specified in
clause (f) or (g) of Section 8.01 hereof occurs with respect to any Significant
Subsidiary or Significant Subsidiaries of the Company, the Trustee by notice to
the Company, or Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare all the
Notes due and payable.

Section 8.03  Other Remedies.

     Subject to Article VI hereof, if an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment
of principal or 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 are cumulative
to the extent permitted by law.

Section 8.04  Waiver of Past Defaults.

     The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders of the
Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences except
a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or
interest on any Note.  When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is cured
and ceases; but (except as specifically provided in such written notice) no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

Section 8.05  Control by Majority.

     The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
may 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
it.  However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with
law or this Indenture, is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders, or
would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 8.06  Limitation on Suits.

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

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

                                     -33-
<PAGE>

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

          (c) such Holder or Holders offer and , if requested, provide to the
     Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability
     or expense;

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

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

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

Section 8.07  Rights of Holders to Receive Payment.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any
Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, and interest on the Note, on
or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note, 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 the Holder made pursuant to this
Section 8.07.

Section 8.08  Collection Suit by Trustee.

     If an Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(a) or (b), hereof occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of
principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue
principal and interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover
the costs and, to the extent lawful, expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel.

Section 8.09  Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

     The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as
may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the
Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its
creditors or its property.  Nothing contained herein 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 thereof, or to authorize the
Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 8.10  Priorities.

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

     First:   to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 9.07 hereof;

     Second:  to the holders of Senior Debt to the extent required by Article
              VI;

                                     -34-
<PAGE>

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

     Fourth:  to the Company.

     The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to
Holders made pursuant to this Section 8.10.

Section 8.11  Undertaking for Costs.

     In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture
or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a
Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant
in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its
discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good
faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.  This Section 8.11
does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section
8.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the
then outstanding Notes.

                                  ARTICLE IX.
                                    TRUSTEE

Section 9.01  Duties of Trustee.

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

              (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) the
        Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth
        in this Indenture and no others and (ii) in the absence of bad faith on
        its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
        statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon
        certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the
        requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine the
        certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to
        the requirements of this Indenture and to confirm the correctness of all
        mathematical computations.

              (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own
        negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
        misconduct, except that: (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of
        paragraph (b) of this Section 9.01; (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable
        for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless

        to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with

              (e) The Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any
     right or power unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any
     loss, liability or expense.

              (f) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to
     expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee shall be
     under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this

     any loss, liability or expense.

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

Section 9.02  Rights of Trustee.

              (a) The Trustee may rely on any document believed by it to be
     genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The
     Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

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

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

              (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or
     omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within
     its rights or powers.

              (e) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event

     if the Trustee does not act as Paying Agent) of Section 8.01 or of the
     identity of any Significant Subsidiary or of any group of two or more
     Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant
     Subsidiary unless either (1) a Trust Officer of the Trustee assigned to its
     corporate trust department shall have actual knowledge thereof, or (2) the
     Trustee shall have received notice thereof in accordance with Section 12.02
     hereof from the Company or any Holder.

Section 9.03  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 an Affiliate with
the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same
with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to Sections 9.10 and 9.11
hereof.

Section 9.04  Trustee's Disclaimer.

        The Trustee 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, and it shall not be

                                     -36-
<PAGE>

responsible for any statement of the Company in the Indenture or any statement
in the Notes other than its authentication.

Section 9.05  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 on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the
notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith
determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

Section 9.06  Reports by Trustee to Holders.

        Within 60 days after the reporting date stated in Section 12.10, the
Trustee shall mail to Holders a brief report dated as of such reporting date
that complies with TIA (S) 313(a) if and to the extent required by such (S)
313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA (S) 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall
also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA (S) 313(c).

        A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be
filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed. The
Company shall notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
exchange.

Section 9.07  Compensation and Indemnity.

        The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable
compensation for its 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 upon request for all reasonable disbursements,
expenses and advances incurred or made by it. Such disbursements and expenses
may include the reasonable disbursements, compensation and expenses of the
Trustee's agents and counsel.

        The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any claims, demands,
expenses (including but not limited to reasonable compensation, fees,
disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel), losses, damages
or liabilities incurred by it, except as set forth in the next paragraph,
arising out of, related to, or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of this trust and its rights or duties hereunder, including the
reasonable costs and expenses, and the costs and expenses of enforcing this
Indenture (including this Section 9.07) against the Company and of 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. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly
of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the claim
and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate
counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees, disbursements 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
or liability incurred by the Trustee through negligence or bad faith.

        To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section 9.07, the
Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or
collected by the Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay
principal and interest on particular Notes.

                                     -37-
<PAGE>

        Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under
applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an
Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(f) or (g) hereof occurs, the expenses
and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

        All amounts owing to the Trustee under this Section 9.07 shall be
payable by the Company in United States dollars.

Section 9.08  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 9.08.

        The Trustee may resign by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the
Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company. The Company may remove the
Trustee if:

               (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 9.10 hereof, unless
        the Trustee's duty to resign is stayed as provided in TIA (S) 310(b);

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

               (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 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 60 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the
Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee.

        If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 9.10 hereof, unless the
Trustee's duty to resign is stayed as provided in TIA (S) 310(b), any Holder who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months 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. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property
held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for
in Section 9.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to
this Section 9.08 hereof, the Company's obligations under Section 9.07 hereof
shall continue for the benefit of the retiring trustee with respect to expenses
and liabilities incurred by it prior to such replacement.

Section 9.09  Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.

        If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all
or substantially all of its corporate trust business (including the
administration of this Indenture) to, another corporation, the successor
corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

Section 9.10  Eligibility; Disqualification.

        This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of TIA (S) 310(a)(1) and (5). The Trustee shall always have a
combined capital and surplus as stated in Section 12.10 hereof. The Trustee is
subject to TIA (S) 310(b).

Section 9.11  Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

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

Section 10.01  Termination of Company's Obligations.

        This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except that the
Company's obligations under Sections 9.07 and 10.02 hereof shall survive) when
all outstanding Notes theretofore authenticated and issued have been delivered
to the Trustee for cancellation and the Company has paid all sums payable
hereunder.

Section 10.02  Repayment to Company.

        The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company upon
request any excess money or securities held by them at any time.

        The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request
any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains
unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such payment shall have become
due; provided, however, that the Company shall have first caused notice of such
payment to the Company to be mailed to each Holder entitled thereto no less than
30 days prior to such payment. After payment to the Company, the Trustee and the
Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such money and
Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general
creditors unless any applicable abandoned property law designates another
Person.

                                  ARTICLE XI.
                      AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS

Section 11.01  Without Consent of Holders.

        The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or
the Notes without the consent of any Holder:

                                     -39-
<PAGE>

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

       (b) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of
     certificated Notes or to alter the provisions of Article II hereof
     (including the related definitions) in a manner that does not materially
     adversely affect any Holder;

       (c) to comply with Sections 5.12 and 7.01 hereof;

       (d) to reduce the conversion price;

       (e) to increase the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issuable
     pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof, in an amount not in excess of $18,750,000,
     in the event that the underwriters that are underwriting the Notes exercise
     the over-allotment option granted to them by the Company;

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

       (g) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to maintain the
     qualification of this Indenture under the TIA.

     Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of
Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section
11.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of any
amended or supplemental Indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this
Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that
may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into
such amended or supplemental Indenture that affects its own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 11.02  With Consent of Holders.

     Subject to Section 8.07 hereof, the Company and the Trustee may amend or
supplement this Indenture or the Notes with the written consent of the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, including
consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the
Notes.  Subject to Sections 8.04 and 8.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may also waive compliance in a
particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the
Notes.  However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment,
supplement or waiver under this Section 11.02 may not:

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

       (b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or
     alter the provisions of Section 6 of the Notes, except for repurchases of
     the Notes pursuant to Section 3.09 of this Indenture and Section 10 of the
     Notes;

       (c) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment or accrual of
     interest on any Note;

       (d) waive a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any
     Note, except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at
     least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of
     the payment default that resulted from such acceleration;

                                     -40-
<PAGE>

       (e)  increase the Conversion Price;

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

       (g) make any change in Section 8.04 or 8.07 hereof;

       (h) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note;

       (i) impair the right to convert the Notes into Class A Common Stock;

       (j) modify Article V or VI in a manner adverse to the Holders of Notes;
     and

       (k) make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions of
     this Article XI.

     To secure a consent of the Holders under this Section 11.02, it shall not
be necessary for the Holders to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent
approves the substance thereof.

     After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 11.02 becomes
effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing the
amendment or waiver.

Section 11.03  Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

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

Section 11.04  Revocation and Effect of Consents.

     Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it
by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent
Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the
consenting Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any
Note.  However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as
to his Note or portion of a Note if the Trustee receives the notice of
revocation before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers'
Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Notes have consented to the amendment, supplement or waiver.

     The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the
purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment,
supplement or waiver.  If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the
provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were
Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those
Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver or
to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to
be Holders after such record date.  No consent shall be valid or effective for
more than 90 days after such record date unless consents from Holders of the
principal amount of Notes required hereunder for such amendment or waiver to be
effective shall have also been given and not revoked within such 90-day period.

     After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective it shall bind
every Holder, unless it is of the type described in any of clauses (a) through
(j) of Section 11.02 hereof.  In such case, the

                                     -41-
<PAGE>

amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every
subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Note.

Section 11.05  Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

     The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver
on any Note thereafter authenticated.  The Company in exchange for all Notes may
issue and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment or
waiver.

     Failure to make such notation on a Note or to issue a new Note as aforesaid
shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment or waiver.

Section 11.06  Trustee Protected.

     The Trustee shall sign all supplemental indentures, except that the Trustee
may, but need not, sign any supplemental indenture that adversely affects its
rights.

                                  ARTICLE XII.
                                 MISCELLANEOUS

incorporated into this Indenture if it were qualified under the TIA), and shall,

Trustee by notice to the other may designate additional or different addresses
for subsequent notices or communications.

     Any notice or communication to a Holder shall be mailed by first class mail
to his address shown on the register kept by the Registrar.  Failure to mail a
notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its
sufficiency with respect to other Holders.

     If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above within
the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

     If the Company mails a notice or communication to Holders, it shall mail a
copy to the Trustee and each Agent at the same time.

     All other notices or communications shall be in writing.

                                     -42-
<PAGE>

     In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, or by reason
of any other cause, it shall be impossible to mail any notice as required by the
Indenture, then such method of notification as shall be made with the approval
of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient mailing of such notice.

Section 12.03  Communication by Holders with Other Holders.

     Holders may communicate pursuant to TIA (S) 312(b) with other Holders with
respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Notes.  The Company, the

          (d) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person,

     A "Legal Holiday" is a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banking
institutions in the State of New York are not required to be open.  If a payment
date is a Legal Holiday at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place
on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no

                                     -43-

the Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any Obligations of the
Company under the Notes or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect
