Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of the Regulation S Temporary
Global Note, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes
represented thereby with the Trustee as custodian for the Depositary, and
registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for

<PAGE>
the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream,
duly executed by the Issuers and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter
provided. The Restricted Period shall be terminated upon the receipt by the
Trustee of (i) a written certificate from the Depositary, together with copies
of certificates from Euroclear and Clearstream certifying that they have
received certification of non-United States beneficial ownership of 100% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note (except to
the extent of any beneficial owners thereof who acquired an interest therein
during the Restricted Period pursuant to another exemption from registration
under the Securities Act and who will take delivery of a beneficial ownership
interest in a 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note bearing a Private Placement
Legend, all as contemplated by Section 2.06(b)(hereof), and (ii) an Officers'
Certificate from each of the Issuers. Following the termination of the
Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global
Note shall be exchanged for beneficial interests in Regulation S Permanent
Global Notes pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Simultaneously with the
authentication of Regulation S Permanent Global Notes, the Trustee shall cancel
the Regulation S Temporary Global Note. The aggregate principal amount of the
Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Notes
may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the
records of the Trustee and the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, in
connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided.

           (d) Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions
of the "Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System" and "Terms and Conditions
Governing Use of Euroclear" and the "General Terms and Conditions of
Clearstream" and "Customer Handbook" of Clearstream shall be applicable to
transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and
the Regulation S Permanent Global Notes that are held by Participants through
Euroclear or Clearstream.

Section 2.02.        Execution and Authentication.

           One Officer of each Issuer shall sign the Notes for the Issuers by
manual or facsimile signature.

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

           A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature
of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has
been authenticated under this Indenture.

           The Trustee shall, upon a written order of the Issuers signed by one
Officer of each of the Issuers (an "Authentication Order"), authenticate Notes
for original issue.

           The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the
Issuers to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes
whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to
authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An
authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an
Affiliate of an Issuer.

Section 2.03.        Registrar and Paying Agent.

           The Issuers shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be
presented for registration of transfer or for exchange ("Registrar") and an
office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment ("Paying Agent"). The
Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange.
The Issuers may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional
paying agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term
"Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent. The Issuers may change any
Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuers shall notify
the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this

                                       18
<PAGE>
Indenture. If the Issuers fail to appoint or maintain another entity as
Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. An Issuer or any of
its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

           The Issuers initially appoint The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") to
act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

           The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee to act as the Registrar and
Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

Section 2.04.        Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

           The Issuers shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of
Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of
principal, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on the Notes, and
will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such
payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying
Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuers at any time may
require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment
over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than an Issuer or a Subsidiary
of an Issuer) shall have no further liability for the money. If an Issuer or a
Subsidiary of an Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a
separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as
Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to such
Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.05.        Holder Lists.

           The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably
practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of
all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA ss. 312(a). If the Trustee is
not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven
Business Days, or such shorter time as the Trustee will allow, before each
interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in
writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably
require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes and the Issuers shall
otherwise comply with TIA ss. 312(a).

Section 2.06.        Transfer and Exchange.

           (a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be
transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary,
by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the
Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary
or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by
the Issuers for Definitive Notes if (i) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee
notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as
Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the
Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the
Issuers within 120 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary or
(ii) the Issuers in their sole discretion determine that the Global Notes (in
whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes and deliver a
written notice to such effect to the Trustee; provided that in no event shall
the Regulation S Temporary Global Note be exchanged by the Issuers for
Definitive Notes prior to (x) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (y)
the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule
903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act. Upon the occurrence of either of the
preceding events in (i) or (ii) above, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such
names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be
exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and
2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu
of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or
Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form

                                       19
<PAGE>
of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another
Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a), however, beneficial
interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in
Section 2.06(b), (c) or (f) hereof.

           (b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global
Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes
shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of
this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the
Restricted Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable
to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act.
Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require
compliance with either subparagraph (i) or (ii) below, as applicable, as well as
one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

         (i) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note.
         Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred
         to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial
         interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the
         transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend;
         provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Restricted
         Period, transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary
         Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account or
         benefit of a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser). Beneficial
         interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons
         who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an
         Unrestricted 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

         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; provided that in no event shall
         Definitive Notes be issued upon the transfer or exchange of beneficial
         interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note prior to (x) the
         expiration of the Restricted Period and (y) the receipt by the
         Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903 under the
         Securities Act. Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer by the Issuers
         in accordance with Section 2.06(f) hereof, the requirements of this
         Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt
         by the Registrar of the instructions contained in the Letter of
         Transmittal delivered by the Holder of such beneficial interests in the
         Restricted Global Notes. 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(h) hereof.

         (iii) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note to
         Another Restricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted

         if the transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii)
         above and the Registrar receives the following:

                  (A) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a
                  beneficial interest in the 144A Global Note, then the
                  transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B
                  hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof;

                  (B) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a

         beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by
         any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global
         Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form
         of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange
         or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii) above
         and:

                  (A) such exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to the

                  Issuer;

                  (B) such transfer is effected pursuant to the Shelf
                  Registration Statement in accordance with the Registration
                  Rights Agreement;

                  (C) such transfer is effected by a Broker-Dealer pursuant to

           (h) 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.

           (i) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

         (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers
         shall execute and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in
         accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee shall authenticate Global
         Notes and Definitive Notes upon the Issuers' order or at the
         Registrar's request.

         (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 Issuers 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, 3.09, 4.10, 4.15
         and 9.05 hereof).

         (iii) 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 Issuers, 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.

         (iv) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuers shall 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.

         (v) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any
         Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuers 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 Issuers shall be affected by notice to the
         contrary.

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

         (vii) 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.

         (viii) The Trustee is hereby authorized to enter into a letter of
         representation with the Depository in the form provided by the Issuers
         and to act in accordance with such letter.

Section 2.07.        Replacement Notes.

           If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or an Issuer, and
the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of any Note, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee's
requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, an indemnity
bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the
Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any
authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is
replaced. The Issuers may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

           Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of each of the
Issuers 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 an Issuer or an Affiliate of an Issuer
holds the Note; however, Notes held by an Issuer or a Subsidiary of an Issuer
shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b) hereof.

           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.

           If the Paying Agent (other than an Issuer, a Subsidiary of an Issuer
or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date,
money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date
such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue
interest.

Section 2.09.        Treasury Notes.

           In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount
of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by an
Issuer, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or
under direct or indirect common control with an Issuer, shall be considered as
though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the
Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent,
only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

Section 2.10.        Temporary Notes.

           Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the
Issuers may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order,
shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in
the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuers consider
appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers 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 Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for
cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any
Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The
Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of
transfer, exchange, payment, 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 Issuers. The Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that they
have paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12.        Defaulted Interest.

           If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they
shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent
lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are
Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided
in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and
the date of the proposed payment. The Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed
each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special
record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for
such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the
Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name
and at the expense of the Issuers) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a
notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the
amount of such interest to be paid.

Section 2.13.        CUSIP Numbers.

           The Issuers 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 as a convenience to Holders; 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 and
that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on
the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by an defect in or
omission of such numbers. The Issuers will promptly notify the Trustee of any
change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

Section 2.14.        Record Date.

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

                            REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

Section 3.01.        Notices to Trustee.

           If the Issuers elect to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional
redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, they shall furnish to the Trustee,
at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an
Officers' Certificate setting forth (i) the clause of this Indenture pursuant to
which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the principal
amount of Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price.

Section 3.02.        Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed.

           If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an
offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed
or purchased among the Holders of the Notes in compliance with the requirements
of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are
listed or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or in
accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate. In
the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed
shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more
than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding
Notes not previously called for redemption.

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

Section 3.03.        Notice of Redemption.

           Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 hereof, at least 30 days
but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuers shall mail or
cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder
whose Notes are to be redeemed at 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 being redeemed in part, the portion of the
principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date
upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to
the unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Note;

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

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

                                       33
<PAGE>
           (f) that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption
payment, interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on Notes called for redemption
ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

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

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

           At the Issuers' request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Issuers' name and at its expense; provided, however, that the
Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 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.

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 irrevocably due and payable on the
redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be
conditional.

Section 3.05.        Deposit of Redemption Price.

           One Business Day prior to the redemption date, the Issuers shall
deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the
redemption price of and accrued interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on all
Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall
promptly return to the Issuers any money deposited with the Trustee or the
Paying Agent by the Issuers in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the
redemption price of, and accrued interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on,
all Notes to be redeemed.

           If the Issuers comply with the provisions of the preceding paragraph,
on and after the redemption date, interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, 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 and
Liquidated Damages, if any, 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 Issuers to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be
paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is
paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid
principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01
hereof.

Section 3.06.        Notes Redeemed in Part.

           Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuers shall
issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall
authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuers a new Note equal in
principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

Section 3.07.        Optional Redemption.

           (a) Except as set forth in clause (b) of this Section 3.07, the
Issuers shall not have the option to redeem the Notes pursuant to this Section
3.07 prior to July 1, 2006. Thereafter, the Issuers may redeem all or a part of

                                       34

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

         2006..........................................      105.125%
         2007..........................................      103.416%
         2008..........................................      101.708%
         2009 and thereafter...........................      100.000%

           (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (a) of this Section
3.07, at any time prior to July 1, 2004, the Issuers may on any one or more
occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of notes originally
issued under this Indenture at a redemption price of 110.25% of the principal
amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the
redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings;
provided that (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of notes
originally issued under this Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the
occurrence of such redemption (excluding notes held by the Issuers and its
Affiliates); and (2) notice of the redemption is given within 30 days of the
date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

           (c) 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 Issuers shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or
sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

Section 3.09.        Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

           In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Issuers shall
be required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase Notes (an "Asset
Sale Offer"), they shall follow the procedures specified below.

           The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business
Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a
longer period is required by applicable law (the "Offer Period"). No later than
five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the "Purchase
Date"), the Issuers shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be
purchased pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof (the "Offer Amount") or, if less than
the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Asset
Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner
as interest payments are made.

           If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or
before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid 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 shall be payable to
Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

           Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers shall send,
by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a
copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials

                                       35
<PAGE>
necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale
Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which
shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

           (a) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section
3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall
remain open;

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

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

           (d) that, unless the Issuers default in making such payment, any Note
accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue
interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, after the Purchase Date;

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

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

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

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

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

           On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent
lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the
Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale
Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered,
and shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that such
Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuers in accordance
with the terms of this Section 3.09. The Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying
Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case not later than five
days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount
equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by
the Issuers for purchase, and the Issuers shall promptly issue a new Note, and
the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuers shall authenticate and mail
or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any
unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be
promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuers to the Holder thereof. The Issuers
shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase
Date.

designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other
office or agency.

           The Issuers hereby designate the Corporate Trust Office of the

year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to

           The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: (i) declare or pay any dividend or make
any other payment or distribution on account of any Issuer's or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any
payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving any Issuer or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of any
Issuer's or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests in their
capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity

         (a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; and

         (b) the Issuers would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after

<PAGE>
         (c) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all
         other Restricted Payments made by the Issuers and their Restricted
         Subsidiaries after the Closing Date (excluding Restricted Payments
         permitted by clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) (but only to
         the extent set forth therein) and (viii) of the next succeeding
         paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of: (i) 50% of
         the Consolidated Net Income of ISP Chemco for the period (taken as one
         accounting period) beginning January 1, 2001 to the end of ISP Chemco's
         most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial
         statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if
         such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of
         such deficit), plus (ii) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds and
         value of other assets received by ISP Chemco since the Closing Date as
         a contribution to common equity capital or from the issue or sale of
         Equity Interests of ISP Chemco (other than Disqualified Stock) or from
         the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Stock or
         convertible or exchangeable debt securities of ISP Chemco that have
         been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests (other than
         Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or debt securities) sold to a
         Subsidiary of ISP Chemco), plus (iii) to the extent that any Restricted
         Investment that was made after the Closing Date is sold for cash or
         otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the lesser of (i) the cash
         return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the
         cost of disposition, if any) and (ii) the initial amount of such
         Restricted Investment; plus (iv) $50.0 million.

           So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or would be caused thereby, the preceding provisions will not
prohibit: (i) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of
declaration of the dividend, if at the date of declaration the dividend payment
would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture; (ii) the redemption,
repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of any subordinated
Indebtedness of any Issuer or any Guarantor or of any Equity Interests of ISP
Chemco, or any dividend or other distribution in respect thereof, in exchange
for Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of, or in an amount equal
to the net cash proceeds of a sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of ISP
Chemco) of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) or a capital
contribution to the equity of, ISP Chemco in the 30-day period prior thereto;
provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any
such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition will be
excluded from clause (c) (ii) of the preceding paragraph; (iii) the defeasance,
redemption, repurchase or other acquisition or retirement of subordinated
Indebtedness of any Issuer or any Guarantor with the net cash proceeds from an
incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; (iv) the payment of any
dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of any Issuer to the holders of its Equity
Interests on a pro rata basis; (v) the repurchase, redemption or other
acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of any Issuer, any
Restricted Subsidiary of any Issuer, or any direct or indirect parent company of
any Issuer held by any member of any Issuers' management pursuant to any
management equity subscription agreement, stock option agreement or similar
agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased,
redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests shall not exceed $3.0 million in
any twelve-month period; (vi) any Restricted Payment for the purpose of
defeasing, redeeming, repurchasing or otherwise acquiring or retiring the 2002
Notes; (vii) any Restricted Payment for the purpose of defeasing, redeeming,
repurchasing or otherwise acquiring or retiring Qualified Subordinated
Indebtedness; provided that, to the extent that any such Restricted Payment is
made out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other
than to an Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of an Issuer) of Equity Interests
of any Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock) or the substantially concurrent
incurrence (other than from an Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of an Issuer)
of Indebtedness of any Issuer permitted to be incurred by this Indenture, the
amount of such Restricted Payment shall be excluded from the lead-in to clause
(c) of the preceding paragraph; provided, further, that, to the extent
applicable, the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any
such Restricted Payment will be excluded from clause (c) (ii) of the preceding
paragraph; and (viii) payments required by the Tax Sharing Agreement as in
effect on the Closing Date, and amendments thereto that do not adversely affect
in any material respect the Issuers or their Restricted Subsidiaries or the
Holders.

                                       40
<PAGE>

fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or
securities proposed to be transferred or issued by such Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment.
The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued
by this Section 4.07 will be determined by the Board of Directors whose
resolution with respect thereto will be delivered to the Trustee. The Board of
Directors' determination must be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an
accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing if the
fair market value exceeds $10.0 million.

Section 4.08.        Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting
                     Restricted Subsidiaries.

           The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become
effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any
Restricted Subsidiary to: (1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on
its Capital Stock to the Issuers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries, or
with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its
profits, or pay any indebtedness owed to the Issuers or any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries; (2) make loans or advances to the Issuers or any of their
Restricted Subsidiaries; or (3) transfer any of its properties or assets to the
Issuers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries.

restrictions existing under or by reason of:

         (i) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness and the Credit
         Agreement, in each case as in effect on the Closing Date, and any
         amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases,
         supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those
         agreements; provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements,
         renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or
         refinancings are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to
         such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in
         those agreements on the Closing Date;

         (ii) this Indenture, the Notes, the Exchange Notes, the Guarantees, and
         the Guarantees of the Exchange Notes;

         (iii) applicable law;

         (iv) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person
         acquired by the Issuers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries as in
         effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such
         Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in
         contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is
         not applicable to any other Person, or the properties or assets of any
         other Person; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such
         Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be
         incurred;

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

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

         (vii) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted
         Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary
         pending its sale or other disposition;

                                       41
<PAGE>
         (viii) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, provided that the
         restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted
         Refinancing Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole,
         than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being
         refinanced;

         (ix) Liens otherwise permitted to be incurred under Section 4.12 hereof
         that limit the right of the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries
         to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens;

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

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

         (xii) any agreement governing Indebtedness of Foreign Subsidiaries
         permitted under Section 4.09 hereof; and

         (xiii) any agreement governing Indebtedness incurred after the Closing
         Date permitted under Section 4.09 hereof; provided that the
         restrictions contained therein are, in the good faith judgment of the
         Board of Directors, not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to
         the Holders than those contained in agreements governing Existing
         Indebtedness.

Section 4.09.        Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.

           The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee
or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise,
with respect to (collectively, "incur") any Indebtedness (including Acquired
Debt), and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any
shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Issuers may incur
Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Guarantors may incur
Indebtedness or issue preferred stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for
ISP Chemco's most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal
financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such
additional Indebtedness is incurred or such preferred stock is issued would have
been at least 2.0 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma
application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness
had been incurred or the preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at
the beginning of such four-quarter period.

           The first paragraph of this Section 4.09 shall not prohibit the
incurrence of any of the following Indebtedness (collectively, "Permitted
Debt"):

         (i) the incurrence by the Issuers and the Guarantors of Indebtedness
         (a) under the Credit Agreement (with letters of credit being deemed to
         have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the
         Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) or (b) pursuant
         to a Qualified Securitization Program; provided that the aggregate
         amount of all Indebtedness of the Issuers and their Restricted
         Subsidiaries incurred pursuant to this clause (i), including all
         Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or
         replace any other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (i),
         does not exceed at any one time outstanding an amount equal to $550.0
         million, less the aggregate amount applied by the Issuers and their
         Restricted Subsidiaries to repay Indebtedness under the Credit
         Agreement or a Qualified Securitization Program pursuant to Section
         4.10 hereof;

                                       42
<PAGE>
         (ii) the incurrence by the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries of
         Existing Indebtedness;

         (iii) the incurrence by the Issuers and the Guarantors of Indebtedness
         represented by the Notes and the related Guarantees to be issued on the
         Closing Date, and the Exchange Notes and the related Guarantees to be
         issued in respect thereof pursuant to the Registration Rights
         Agreement;

         (iv) the incurrence by the Issuers and the Guarantors of Indebtedness
         represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or
         purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of
         financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction
         or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of
         the Issuers or their Restricted Subsidiaries, in an aggregate amount at
         any one time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing
         Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness
         incurred pursuant to this clause (iv), not to exceed the greater of (a)
         $25.0 million and (b) 10.0% of the Issuers' Net Tangible Assets as of
         the date on which any such Indebtedness is incurred;

         (v) the incurrence by any Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
         of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net
         proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness
         (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by this
         Indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this Section 4.09
         or clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (xi) or (xii) of this
         paragraph;

         (vi) the incurrence of Indebtedness between any of the Issuers, or
         between any of the Issuers and any of their Restricted Subsidiaries, or
         between any of the Issuers' Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however,
         that:

                  (A) if any Issuer or any Guarantor is an obligor with respect
                  to such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness is expressly
                  subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all
                  Obligations with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees, as
                  the case may be, and

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

         (vii) the incurrence by any Issuer or any of its Restricted
         Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations that are incurred for the purpose
         of fixing or hedging interest rate risk with respect to any floating
         rate Indebtedness that is permitted by the terms of this Indenture to
         be outstanding;

         (viii) the guarantee by any of the Issuers or any of the Guarantors of
         Indebtedness of an Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of any Issuer that
         was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09;

         (ix) the accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original
         issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form
         of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and the payment of
         dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the
         same class of Disqualified Stock;

                                       43
<PAGE>
         (x) the incurrence by Foreign Subsidiaries of any of the Issuers of
         Indebtedness in an aggregate amount at any time outstanding not to
         exceed $25.0 million;

         (xi) the incurrence by Persons that become Restricted Subsidiaries and
         Guarantors of Acquired Debt in an aggregate principal amount at the
         date of such incurrence not to exceed $25.0 million; provided that (a)
         such Acquired Debt is not incurred in connection with, or in
         contemplation of, such Person merging with or into, or becoming a
         Subsidiary of, any Issuer or any of their other Restricted Subsidiaries
         and (b) liability for such Acquired Debt shall not extend to the
         Issuers or any of their other Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of their
         assets;

         (xii) the incurrence by the Issuers and the Guarantors of Indebtedness
         in respect of industrial revenue bonds or other similar tax
         advantageous financings in an aggregate amount at any one time
         outstanding not to exceed $25.0 million;

         (xiii) the incurrence by the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries
         of Indebtedness arising from agreements providing for indemnification,
         adjustment of purchase price, earn out or similar obligations, in each
         case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any
         business, asset or Subsidiary, other than guarantees of Indebtedness
         incurred by any Person acquiring such business, asset or Subsidiary;
         provided, however, that the maximum amount of all such Indebtedness
         shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds actually received by such
         Issuer or Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such disposition;
         and

         (xiv) the incurrence by the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries
         of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or
         accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding not to exceed
         $25.0 million.

           For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the
event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one
of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (i) through (xiv)
above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this
Section 4.09, the Issuers will be permitted to classify such item of
Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence in any manner that complies with this
Section 4.09. Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement outstanding on the date on
which Notes are first issued and authenticated under this Indenture will be
deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided
by clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Debt.

Section 4.10.        Asset Sales.

           The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: (i) the Issuer or the
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of
the Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or Equity
Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; (ii) the fair market value is
determined by the Issuers' Board of Directors and evidenced by a resolution of
the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers' Certificate delivered to the
Trustee; and (iii) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale
by such Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash. For
purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash: (a)
any liabilities, as shown on such Issuers' or such Restricted Subsidiary's most
recent balance sheet, of the Issuers or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than
contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to
the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such
assets; (b) any securities, notes or other obligations received by any such
Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are
contemporaneously, subject to ordinary settlement periods, converted or
convertible by such Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the

                                       44
<PAGE>
extent of the cash received or that would be received in that conversion; and
(c) long-term assets that are used or useful in a Permitted Business.

           Within 18 months after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset
Sale, ISP Chemco may apply those Net Proceeds, at its option: (1) to repay
Senior Debt and, if the Senior Debt repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to
correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; (2) to acquire all or
substantially all of the assets of, or a majority of the Voting Stock of,
another Permitted Business; (3) to make a capital expenditure in a Permitted
Business; or (4) to acquire other long-term assets that arc used or useful in a
Permitted Business.

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

           Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as
provided in the preceding paragraphs will constitute "Asset Sale Proceeds." When
the aggregate amount of Asset Sale Proceeds exceeds the Threshold Amount, ISP
Chemco shall make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of
other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions
similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase
or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal
amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out
of the excess of such Asset Sale Proceeds over the Threshold Amount (such excess
being referred to herein as the "Excess Proceeds"); provided, however, that ISP
Chemco shall not be obligated to make an Asset Sale Offer until the aggregate
amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $5.0 million. The offer price in any Asset
Sale Offer shall be equal to 100% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid
interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of purchase, and will be
payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset
Sale Offer, ISP Chemco may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not
otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of
Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer
exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and
such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon
completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the aggregate amount of Asset Sale Proceeds
will be reduced by the amount of Excess Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale
Offer.

Section 4.11.        Transactions with Affiliates.

           The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or
assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract,
agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit
of, any Affiliate (each, an "Affiliate Transaction"), unless: (1) the Affiliate
Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to any such Issuer or the
relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a
comparable transaction by such Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an
unrelated Person; and (2) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee: (a) with respect
to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions
involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, a resolution of
the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers' Certificate certifying that
such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.11 and that such
Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the members of the
Board of Directors who have no personal stake in the transaction and who are not
Affiliates of any party (other than the Issuers and their Restricted
Subsidiaries) to the transaction ("disinterested members"); provided that if
there are no disinterested members of the Board of Directors, the Issuers shall
deliver to the Trustee an opinion as to the fairness to the Holders of such
Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting,
appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing; and (b) with respect
to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions

                                       45
<PAGE>
involving aggregate consideration in excess of $30.0 million, an opinion as to
the fairness to the Holders of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point
of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of
national standing.

           The following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions
and, therefore, shall not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:
(1) any transaction with employees of the Issuers or any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries, including entering into compensation plans, entered into in the
ordinary course of business and consistent with the past practice of such Issuer
or such Restricted Subsidiary; (2) transactions between or among the Issuers and
their Restricted Subsidiaries; (3) transactions with a Person that is an
Affiliate of any of the Issuers solely because any such Issuer owns an Equity
Interest in, or controls, such Person; (4) payment of reasonable compensation
(including stock and option compensation) and expense reimbursements to members
of the Board of Directors who are not otherwise Affiliates of the Issuers; (5)
sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates of the
Issuers; (6) sales of inventory to BMCA and its Subsidiaries in the ordinary
course of business; (7) transactions pursuant to the Management Agreement as in
effect on the Closing Date, and amendments thereto that do not adversely affect
in any material respect the Issuers or their Restricted Subsidiaries or the
Holders; (8) transactions directly relating to the Restructuring; (9) any sale,
conveyance or other transfer of accounts receivable and other related assets
customarily transferred in an accounts receivable securitization program in a
Qualified Securitization Program; and (10) Restricted Payments that are
permitted by the provisions of this Indenture described above under Section 4.07
hereof.

Section 4.12.        Liens.

           The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to
exist any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness, Attributable Debt or trade
payables on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens,
unless the Notes are secured by a Lien on such assets on an equal and ratable
basis.

Section 4.13.        Business Activities.

           The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary
to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such
extent as would not be material to ISP Chemco and its Restricted Subsidiaries
taken as a whole.

Section 4.14.        Corporate Existence.

           Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuers shall do or cause to be done
all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its
corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each
of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents
(as the same may be amended from time to time) of any such Issuer or any such
Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises
of the Issuers and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Issuers shall
not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the
corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the
Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer
desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuers and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material
respect to the Holders of the Notes.

Section 4.15.        Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

           (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuers shall
make an offer (a "Change of Control Offer") to each Holder to repurchase all or
any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of each Holder's

                                       46
<PAGE>
Notes (other than Notes previously called for redemption) at a purchase price
equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid
interest and Liquidated Damages thereon, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to
the date of purchase ( the "Change of Control Payment"). Within 30 days
following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall mail a notice to each Holder
stating: (1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this
Section 4.15 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment; (2) the
purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and
no later than 60 business days from the date such notice is mailed (the "Change
of Control Payment Date"); (3) that any Note not tendered will continue to
accrue interest; (4) that, unless the Issuers default in the payment of the
Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change
of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control
Payment Date; (5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to
a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Notes, with the form
entitled "Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse of the Notes
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 Change of Control
Payment Date; (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if
the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second
Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex,
facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the
principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such
Holder is withdrawing his election to have the Notes purchased; and (7) that
Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes
equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered,
which unpurchased portion must be equal to $1,000 in principal amount or an
integral multiple thereof. The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations
thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection
with the repurchase of Notes in connection with a Change of Control.

           (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the
extent lawful, (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly
tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (2) deposit with the Paying
Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes
or portions thereof so tendered and (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers' Certificate stating the
aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the
Issuers. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly
tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall
promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to
each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of
the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a
principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000.

           (c) Prior to complying with any of the provisions of this Section
4.15, but in any event within 90 days following a Change of Control, the Issuers
shall either repay all outstanding Senior Debt or obtain the requisite consents,
if any, under all agreements governing outstanding Senior Debt to permit the
repurchase of Notes required by this Section 4.15. The Issuers shall publicly
announce the result of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable
after the Change of Control Payment Date.

           (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15,
the Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a
Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the
manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth
in this Section 4.15 and Section 3.09 hereof and all other provisions of this
Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and
purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of
Control Offer.

Section 4.16.        No Senior Subordinated Debt.

           No Issuer shall incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior
in right of payment to any Senior Debt of such Issuer and senior in any respect
in right of payment to the Notes. No Guarantor shall incur any Indebtedness that
is subordinate or junior in right of payment to the Senior Debt of such
Guarantor and senior in any respect in right of payment to the Guarantee of such
Guarantor.

Section 4.17.        Additional Note Guarantees.

           If the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries acquires or creates
another Domestic Subsidiary after the Closing Date, then that newly acquired or
created Domestic Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental
indenture and deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee within 20 Business
Days of the date on which it was acquired or created; provided that this Section
4.17 will not apply to any Subsidiary that has properly been designated as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with this Indenture for so long as it
continues to constitute an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Section 4.18.        Payments for Consent.

           The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any
consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an
inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions
of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid
and is paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in
the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent,
waiver or agreement.

Section 4.19.        Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

           The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be
an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a
Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate
fair market value at the time of the designation of all outstanding Investments
owned by the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary
properly designated shall be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of
the designation and shall reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments
under the first paragraph of Section 4.07 or Permitted Investments, as
determined by the Issuers. That designation shall only be permitted if the
Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary
otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of
Directors may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted
Subsidiary if the redesignation would not cause a Default.

Section 4.20.        Changes in Covenants When Notes Rated Investment Grade.

           Following the first date upon which, but only for so long as (1) the
Notes are rated Baa3 or better by Moody's Investors Services, Inc. and BBB- or
better by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services (or, in either case, if such Person
ceases to rate the Notes for reasons outside of the control of the Issuers, the
equivalent investment grade credit rating from any other "nationally recognized
statistical rating organization" (within the meaning of Rule 15c3-1 (c) (2) (vi)
(F) under the Exchange Act) selected by the Issuers as a replacement agency);
(2) neither Moody's Investors Services, Inc. nor Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services has attached any "negative outlook" to such rating of the Notes; and
(3) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the covenants
listed under Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.13 and 4.19 shall no
longer be applicable to the Notes, all Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall become
Restricted Subsidiaries, and any then-existing Indebtedness of Unrestricted
Subsidiaries shall constitute Existing Indebtedness.

Section 4.21.        Escrow Account.

           On the Closing Date, the Issuers shall place the net proceeds of the
offering of the Initial Notes into the Escrow Account and pledge such account to
the Trustee as security for the benefit of the Holders in accordance with the
Escrow Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Account, the assets in the
Escrow Account shall only be used to redeem or otherwise retire the outstanding
2002 Notes. Pending such use, the assets in the Escrow Account may only be
invested in The Wilmington U.S. Government Portfolio/ Service Class Shares or,
if such fund is no longer in existence, Cash Equivalents and Government
Securities, and the Issuers shall grant a security interest in the Escrow
Account to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders. Following retirement of
the 2002 Notes, any remaining assets in the Escrow Account shall be released to
the Issuers.

Section 5.01.        Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets.

           No Issuer shall, directly or indirectly, consolidate or merge with or

as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person unless: (i)

which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been
made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States,

formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than an
Issuer) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or
other disposition has been made (if other than another Issuer) assumes all the
obligations of such Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture and the Registration
Rights Agreement pursuant to a supplemental indenture reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee; (iii) immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of
Default exists; and (iv) except in the case of consolidation or merger between
or among the Issuers and the Guarantors, such Issuer or the Person formed by or
surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer), or to

4.09 hereof. In addition, no Issuer shall, directly or indirectly, lease all or
substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related

           Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer,
lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets
of an Issuer in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof, the successor corporation
formed by such consolidation or into or with which the such predecessor Issuer
is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or
other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from
and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or
other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the "Issuers"
or an "Issuer" shall refer instead to the successor corporation and not to such
predecessor Issuer), and may exercise every right and power of an Issuer under

                                       49
<PAGE>
this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named
as an Issuer herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Issuer shall not be
relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes
except in the case of a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other
disposition of all of the predecessor Issuer's assets that meets the
requirements of Section 5.01 hereof.

Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or
is created after the date of this Indenture, which default

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

         (iii) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or
         substantially all of its property,

         (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or

         (v) generally is not paying its debts as they become due; or

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

         (i) is for relief against an Issuer or any of its Restricted
         Subsidiaries in an involuntary case;

         (ii) appoints a custodian of an Issuer or any of its Restricted
         Subsidiaries or for all or substantially all of the property of an
         Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

         (iii) orders the liquidation of an Issuer or any of its Restricted

behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under such
Guarantor's Note Guarantee; or

           (k) the Issuers fail to place the amount contemplated in Section 4.21

Section 6.02.        Acceleration.

           If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in
clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.01 hereof with respect to an Issuer, any
Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of
Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant
Subsidiary) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25%
in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to
be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall
become due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event
of Default specified in clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.01 hereof occurs with
respect to an Issuer, any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary
or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute
a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable
immediately without further action or notice. The Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to

                                       51
<PAGE>
the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind an acceleration and its
consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree
and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest
or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been
cured or waived.

           If an Event of Default occurs on or after July 1, 2006 by reason of
any willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of any
Issuer with the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the Issuers
would have had to pay if the Issuers then had elected to redeem the Notes
pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof, then, upon acceleration of the Notes, an
equivalent premium shall also become and be immediately due and payable, to the
extent permitted by law, anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the
contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default occurs prior to July 1, 2006 by
reason of any willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf
of any Issuer with the intention of avoiding the prohibition on redemption of
the Notes prior to such date, then, upon acceleration of the Notes, an
additional premium shall also become and be immediately due and payable in an
amount, for each of the years beginning on July 1 of the years set forth below,
as set forth below (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the
Notes on the date of payment that would otherwise be due but for the provisions
of this sentence):

         YEAR                                                  PERCENTAGE
         ----                                                  ----------

         2001................................................    10.250%
         2002................................................     8.969%
         2003................................................     7.688%
         2004................................................     6.406%
         2005................................................     5.125%

Section 6.03.        Other Remedies.

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

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

Section 6.04.        Waiver of Past Defaults.

           Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders
of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its
consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the
payment of the principal of, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest
on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase) (provided,
however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences,
including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration).
Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of
Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose
of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other
Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

                                       52
<PAGE>
Section 6.05.        Control by Majority.

           Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power
conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that
conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly
prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the
Trustee in personal liability.

Section 6.06.        Limitation on Suits.

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

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

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

           (c) such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes offer and, if
requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity 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 of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights
of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another
Holder of a Note.

Section 6.07.        Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

           Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture (other than
Article 10), the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal,
premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after
the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an
offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on
or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the
consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08.        Collection Suit by Trustee.

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

Section 6.09.        Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

           The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other
papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the

                                       53
<PAGE>
Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers
(or any other obligor upon the Notes), their creditors or their properties and
shall be entitled and empowered to participate as a member, voting or otherwise,
of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect,
receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any
such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event
that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the
Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To
the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due
the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding,
shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien
on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money,
securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in
such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or
arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize
the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to
vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.10.        Priorities.

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

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

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

         Third: to the Issuers or to such party as a court of competent
         jurisdiction shall direct.

Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

Section 6.11.        Undertaking for Costs.

           In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this
Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by
it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party
litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the
court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to
the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.

Section 7.01.        Duties of Trustee.

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

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

         (i) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express

         and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
         Indenture against the Trustee; and

         (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may

         opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
         this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and
         opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements
         of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of
         mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein or otherwise
         verify the contents thereof).

         Section;

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

         (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it
         takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction

Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

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. The Trustee may consult with
counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall
be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of
any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in
reliance thereon.

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

rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of

compliance with such request or direction.

Section 7.03.        Individual Rights of Trustee.

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

paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers' direction under any provision of this
Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be

           If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it

case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if
any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long

                                       56
<PAGE>
as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that
withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

Section 7.06.        Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes.

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

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

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

           The Issuers shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses,
liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the
acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the
costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuers (including
this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by
any Issuer or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with
the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to
the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its
negligence or bad faith. The Trustee shall notify the Issuers promptly of any
claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the
Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers of their obligations hereunder. The
Issuers shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense.
The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuers shall pay the reasonable
fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuers need not pay for any settlement
made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned.

the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

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

           When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event
of Default specified in Section 6.01(g) or (h) hereof occurs, the expenses and

                                       57
<PAGE>
the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents
and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law.

           The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA ss. 313(b)(2) to
the extent applicable.

Section 7.08.        Replacement of Trustee.

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

           The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from
the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuers. The Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so
notifying the Trustee and the Issuers in writing. The Issuers may remove the
Trustee if:

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

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 Issuers 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 Issuers.

           If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuers, 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, after written request by any Holder who has been a
Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10, such Holder
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee
and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

           A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuers. 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; provided all sums owing to the
Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section
7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section
7.08, the Issuers' obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the
benefit of the retiring Trustee.

organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or

requirements of TIA ss. 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA
ss. 310(b).

Section 7.11.        Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuers.

           The Trustee is subject to TIA ss. 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA ss. 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been

Section 8.01.        Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

           The Issuers may, at the option of their Boards of Directors evidenced
by a resolution set forth in an Officers' Certificate, at any time, elect to
have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon
compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

Section 8.02.        Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

           Upon the Issuers' exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall, subject
to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be
deemed to have been discharged from their respective obligations with respect to
all outstanding Notes and the Note Guarantees on the date the conditions set
forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "Legal Defeasance"). For this purpose,
Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers shall be deemed to have paid and
discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which
shall thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the purposes of Section
8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b)
below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this
Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuers,
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the
following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or
discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive
solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.04 hereof, and as more fully
set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if
any, interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on such Notes when such payments
are due, (b) the Issuers' obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2
and Section 4.02 hereof, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities
of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuers' and the Guarantors' obligations in
connection therewith and (d) this Article 8. Subject to compliance with this

                                       59
<PAGE>
Article Eight, the Issuers may exercise their option under this Section 8.02
notwithstanding the prior exercise of their option under Section 8.03 hereof.

Section 8.03.        Covenant Defeasance.

           Upon the Issuers' exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall, subject
to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be
released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07,
4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18, 4.19 and 4.20 hereof
and clause (iv) of Section 5.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on
and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied
(hereinafter, "Covenant Defeasance"), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed
not "outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or
declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in
connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed "outstanding"
for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not
be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant
Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuers and
the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of
any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether
directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other
provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not
constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but,
except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall
be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuers' exercise under Section
8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections
6.01(c) through 6.01(g) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default.

Section 8.04.        Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

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

           In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

           (a) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust,
for the benefit of the Holders, cash in United States dollars, non-callable
Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be
sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants, to pay the principal of, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any,
and interest on the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or
on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must
specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular
redemption date;

           (b) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, each of the
Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United
States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (A) such Issuer has
received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a
ruling or (B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the
applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based
thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the
outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal
income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as
would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

                                       60
<PAGE>
           (c) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, each of the
Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United
States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the
outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal
income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as
would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

           (d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default
resulting from the incurrence of Indebtedness all or a portion of the proceeds
of which will be used to defease the Notes pursuant to this Article 8
concurrently with such incurrence) or insofar as Sections 6.01(g) or 6.01(h)
hereof is concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the
date of deposit;

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

           (f) each of the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by such Issuer with
the intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors of such Issuer or
with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other
creditors of such Issuer; and

           (g) each of the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the
Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Section 8.05.        Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in
                     Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

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

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

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

                                       61
<PAGE>
Section 8.06.        Repayment to Issuers.

           Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then
held by any Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if
any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such
principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be
paid to the Issuers on their request or (if then held by an Issuer) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look
only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or
such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of any
Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the
Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment,
may at the expense of the Issuers cause to be published once, in the New York
Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money
remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be
less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuers.

Section 8.07.        Reinstatement.

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

                        AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.01.        Without Consent of Holders of Notes.

           Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Issuers, the
Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Note
Guarantees, the Notes or the Escrow Agreement without the consent of any Holder
of a Note:

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

           (b) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of
certificated Notes or to alter the provisions of Article 2 hereof (including the
related definitions) in a manner that does not materially adversely affect any
Holder;

           (c) to provide for the assumption of an Issuer's or a Guarantor's
obligations to the Holders of the Notes by a successor to an Issuer pursuant to
Article 5 or Article 11 hereof;

           (d) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or
benefits to the Holders of the Notes (including the provision of any Liens for
the benefit of Holders as contemplated by Section 4.12) or that does not
adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder of the Note;

                                       62
<PAGE>
           (e) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or
maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

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

           (g) to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or
a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes.

           Upon the request of the Issuers accompanied by a resolution of their
Boards of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or
supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents
described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuers and
the Guarantors 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 9.02.        With Consent of Holders of Notes.

           Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuers and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including Section 3.09, 4.10 and
4.15 hereof), the Note Guarantees, the Notes and the Escrow Agreement with the
consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes
(including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class
(including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer
for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof,
any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of
Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the
Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been
rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Note
Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional
Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained in
connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the
Notes). In addition, without the consent of at least 75% in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection
with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, such Notes), no
waiver or amendment to this Indenture may make any change in the provisions of
Article 10 hereof that adversely affects the rights of any Holder of Notes.
Section 2.08 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be
"outstanding" for purposes of this Section 9.02.

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

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

           After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes
effective, the Issuers shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a
notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of

                                       63
<PAGE>
the Issuers to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in
any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental
indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes,
if any) then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a
particular instance by the Issuers with any provision of this Indenture or the
Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or
waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a
non-consenting Holder):

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

           (b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note
or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the
Notes except as provided above with respect to Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15
hereof;

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

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

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

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

           (g) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a
payment required by Section 4.10 or 4.15);

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

           (i) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note
Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture.

Section 9.03.        Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

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

Section 9.04.        Revocation and Effect of Consents.

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

                                       64
<PAGE>
notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes
effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance
with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

Section 9.05.        Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

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

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

Section 9.06.        Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

           The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture
authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not
adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.
The Issuers may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until the Board
of Directors approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture,
the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof)
shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required
by Section 13.04 hereof, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment or supplement
is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuers and any Guarantor,
enforceable against each of them in accordance with their terms, subject to
customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section
9.03).

                                  ARTICLE 10.
                                 SUBORDINATION

Section 10.01.       Agreement to Subordinate.

           Each of the Issuers agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note
agrees, that the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is subordinated in right of
payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 10, to the
prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Debt (whether outstanding on the
date hereof or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and that the
subordination is for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt.

Section 10.02.       Certain Definitions.

           "Designated Senior Debt" means (i) all Indebtedness and other
Obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors under the Credit Agreement; and
(ii) after payment in full in cash of all Obligations under the Credit
Agreement, any other Senior Debt permitted by this Indenture to be incurred the
principal amount of which is $25.0 million or more and that has been designated
by any Issuer as "Designated Senior Debt."

           "Permitted Junior Securities" means (i) Equity Interests in any
Issuer or any Guarantor; or (ii) debt securities of any Issuer or any Guarantor
that are subordinated to all Senior Debt and any debt securities issued in
exchange for Senior Debt, in each case, to substantially the same extent as, or
to a greater extent than, the notes and the Guarantees are subordinated to
Senior Debt under this Indenture.

                                       65
<PAGE>
           "Representative" means the indenture trustee or other trustee, agent
or representative for any Senior Debt.

           "Senior Debt" means (i) all Indebtedness and other Obligations of the
Issuers and the Guarantors under the Credit Agreement; (ii) any other
Indebtedness of any Issuer or any Guarantor permitted to be incurred under the
terms of this Indenture, unless the instrument under which such Indebtedness is
incurred expressly provides that it is on a parity with or subordinated in right
of payment to the notes or any Guarantee, or that it is subordinated in right of
payment to any Senior Debt; and (iii) all Obligations with respect to the items

other Indebtedness incurred in connection with obtaining goods or services; or
(z) the portion of any Indebtedness that is incurred in violation of this
Indenture.

Section 10.03.       Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy.

           Upon any distribution to creditors of an Issuer in a liquidation or
dissolution of an Issuer or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency,
receivership or similar proceeding relating to an Issuer or its property, in an
assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshaling of an Issuer's assets
and liabilities:

         (i) holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled to receive payment in full
         of all Obligations due in respect of such Senior Debt (including
         interest after the commencement of any such proceeding at the rate
         specified in the applicable Senior Debt) before Holders of the Notes
         shall be entitled to receive any payment with respect to the Notes
         (except that Holders may receive (A) Permitted Junior Securities and
         (B) payments and other distributions made from any defeasance trust
         created pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof); and

         (ii) until all Obligations with respect to Senior Debt (as provided in
         clause (i) above) are paid in full, any distribution to which Holders
         would be entitled but for this Article 10 shall be made to holders of
         Senior Debt (except that Holders of Notes may receive (A) Permitted
         Junior Securities and (B) payments and other distributions made from
         any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof), as their
         interests may appear.

Section 10.04.       Default on Designated Senior Debt.

           (a) The Issuers may not make any payment or distribution to the
Trustee or any Holder in respect of Obligations with respect to the Notes and
may not acquire from the Trustee or any Holder any Notes for cash or property
(other than (A) Permitted Junior Securities and (B) payments and other
distributions made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 8.01
hereof) until all principal and other Obligations with respect to the Senior
Debt have been paid in full if:

         (i) a default in the payment of any principal or other Obligations with
         respect to Designated Senior Debt occurs and is continuing beyond any
         applicable grace period in the agreement, indenture or other document
         governing such Designated Senior Debt; or

         (ii) a default, other than a payment default, on Designated Senior Debt
         occurs and is continuing that then permits holders of the Designated
         Senior Debt to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a
         notice of the default (a "Payment Blockage Notice") from a Person who
         may give it pursuant to Section 10.12 hereof. If the Trustee receives
         any such Payment Blockage Notice, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice

                                       66
<PAGE>
         shall be effective for purposes of this Section unless and until at
         least 360 days shall have elapsed since the effectiveness of the
         immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice. No nonpayment default that
         existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment
         Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a
         subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been
         cured or waived for a period of not less than 180 days.

           (b) The Issuers may and shall resume payments on and distributions in
respect of the Notes and may acquire them upon the earlier of:

         (i) the date upon which the default is cured or waived, or

         (ii) in the case of a default referred to in clause (ii) of Section
         10.04(a) hereof, 179 days pass after notice is received if the maturity
         of such Designated Senior Debt has not been accelerated, or

         (iii) in the case of a default referred to in clause (ii) of Section
         10.04(a) hereof, the date on which the Trustee receives notice from the
         holder of such Designated Senior Debt rescinding such Payment Blockage
         Notice,

if this Article 10 otherwise permits the payment, distribution or acquisition at
the time of such payment or acquisition.

Section 10.05.       Acceleration of Notes.

           If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of
Default, the Issuers shall promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the
acceleration.

Section 10.06.       When Distribution Must Be Paid Over.

           In the event that the Trustee or any Holder receives any payment of
any Obligations with respect to the Notes at a time when the Trustee or such
Holder, as applicable, has actual knowledge that such payment is prohibited by
Section 10.04 hereof, such payment shall be held by the Trustee or such Holder,
in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered,
upon written request, to, the holders of Senior Debt as their interests may
appear or their Representative under the indenture or other agreement (if any)
pursuant to which Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective
interests may appear, for application to the payment of all Obligations with
respect to Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such
Obligations in full in accordance with their terms, after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Debt.

           With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to
perform only such obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set
forth in this Article 10, 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 be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the
holders of Senior Debt, and shall not be liable to any such holders if the
Trustee shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders or any Issuer or
any other Person money or assets to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be
entitled by virtue of this Article 10, except if such payment is made as a
result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Trustee.

Section 10.07.       Notice by Issuers.

           Each Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of
any facts known to such Issuer that would cause a payment of any Obligations
with respect to the Notes to violate this Article 10, but failure to give such
notice shall not affect the subordination of the Notes to the Senior Debt as
provided in this Article 10.

Section 10.08.       Subrogation.

           After all Senior Debt is paid in full and until the Notes are paid in
full, Holders shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other
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 have been applied to the payment
of Senior Debt. A distribution made under this Article 10 to holders of Senior
Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders is not, as between the
Issuers and Holders, a payment by the Issuers on the Notes.

Section 10.09.       Relative Rights.

           This Article 10 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of
Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

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

         (ii) affect the relative rights of Holders and creditors of the Issuers
         other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt; or

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

           If the Issuers fail because of this Article 10 to pay principal of,
premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on a Note on the due date,
the failure is still a Default or Event of Default.

Section 10.10.       Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Issuers.

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

Section 10.11.       Distribution or Notice to Representative.

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

           Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Issuers referred to
in this Article 10, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon
any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or upon any
certificate of such Representative or 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

                                       68
<PAGE>
Issuers, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 10.

Section 10.12.       Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.

           Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 10 or any other
provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of
the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment or
distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue
to make payments on the Notes, unless the Trustee shall have received at its
Corporate Trust Office at least five Business Days prior to the date of such
payment written notice of facts that would cause the payment of any Obligations
with respect to the Notes to violate this Article 10. Only an Issuer or a
Representative may give the notice. Nothing in this Article 10 shall impair the
claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof.

           The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior
Debt with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do
the same with like rights.

Section 10.13.       Authorization to Effect Subordination.

           Each Holder of Notes, by the Holder's acceptance thereof, authorizes
and directs the Trustee on such Holder's behalf to take such action as may be
necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this
Article 10, and appoints the Trustee to act as such Holder's attorney-in-fact
for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of
claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in
Section 6.09 hereof at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file
such claim, the Representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate
claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Notes.

Section 10.14.       Amendments.

           The provisions of this Article 10 shall not be amended or modified
without the written consent of the holders of all Senior Debt.

                                  ARTICLE 11.
                                NOTE GUARANTEES

Section 11.01.       Guarantee.

           Subject to this Article 11, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly
and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated
and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns,
irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or
the obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal
of and interest on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at
maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue
principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other
obligations of the Issuers to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder
will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms
hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or
renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be
promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the
extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.
Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so
guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally
obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a
guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

                                       69
<PAGE>
           The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the
Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any
waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions
hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuers, any action
to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby
waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court
in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of any of the Issuers, any right to
require a proceeding first against an Issuer, protest, notice and all demands
whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except
by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this
Indenture.

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

           Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed
hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each
Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and
the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the
obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof
for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or
other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of
such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or
not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors
for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to
seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such
right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee.

Section 11.02.       Subordination of Note Guarantee.

           The Obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guarantee pursuant
to this Article 11 shall be junior and subordinated to the Senior Debt of such
Guarantor on the same basis as the Notes are junior and subordinated to Senior
Debt of the Issuers. For the purposes of the foregoing sentence, the Trustee and
the Holders shall have the right to receive and/or retain payments by any of the
Guarantors only at such times as they may receive and/or retain payments in
respect of the Notes pursuant to this Indenture, including Article 10 hereof.

Section 11.03.       Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

           Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby
confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of
such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes
of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any
Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders
and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such
Guarantor will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other
contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such
laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive
contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in
respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result
in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a
fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

<PAGE>
Section 11.04.       Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee.

           To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01, each
Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee substantially in
the form included in Exhibit E shall be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor
on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture
shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by its President or one of its
Vice Presidents.

           Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in
Section 11.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure
to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.

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

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

           In the event that any Issuer creates or acquires any new Subsidiaries
subsequent to the date of this Indenture, if required by Section 4.24 hereof,
such Issuer shall cause such Subsidiaries to execute supplemental indentures to
this Indenture and Note Guarantees in accordance with Section 4.24 hereof and
this Article 11, to the extent applicable.

Section 11.05.       Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

           Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.06, no Guarantor may
consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the
surviving Person) another Person whether or not affiliated with such Guarantor
unless:

           (a) subject to Section 11.06 hereof, the Person formed by or
surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than a Guarantor or an
Issuer) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of such Guarantor, pursuant
to a supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee, under the Notes, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and
the Note Guarantee on the terms set forth herein or therein; and

           (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default
or Event of Default exists.

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

           Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding
clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the
Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into any

                                       71
<PAGE>
Issuer or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the
property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any
Issuer or another Guarantor.

Section 11.06.       Releases Following Sale of Assets.

           In the event of a sale or other disposition of all of the assets of
any Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a sale or other
disposition of all to the capital stock of any Guarantor, in each case to a
Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transactions) a
Subsidiary of an Issuer, then such Guarantor (in the event of a sale or other
disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all of the capital
stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation acquiring the property (in the event
of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such
Guarantor) will be released and relieved of any obligations under its Note
Guarantee; provided that the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are
applied in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture,
including without limitation Section 4.10 hereof. Upon delivery by such Issuer
to the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that such sale or other disposition was made by such Issuer in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.10
hereof, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to
evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Note
Guarantee.

           Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note
Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest
on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture
as provided in this Article 11.

                                  ARTICLE 12.
                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 12.01.       Satisfaction and Discharge.

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

(1)      either:

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

         (b)      all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for
                  cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the
                  mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become
                  due and payable within one year and any Issuer or any
                  Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited
                  with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the
                  benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable
                  Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such
                  amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any
                  reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire
                  indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for
                  cancellation for principal, premium and Liquidated Damages, if
                  any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or
                  redemption;

(2)      no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on
         the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and
         such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute

                                       72
<PAGE>
         a default under, any other instrument to which any Issuer or any
         Guarantor is a party or by which any Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;

(3)      any Issuer or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums
         payable by it under this Indenture; and

(4)      any Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under
         this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the
         Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

In addition, each of the Issuers must deliver an Officers' Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to
satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

           Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if
money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of
clause (1) of this Section, the provisions of Section 12.02 and Section 8.06
shall survive.

Section 12.02.       Application of Trust Money.

           Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with
the Trustee pursuant to Section 12.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it,
in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including an Issuer acting
as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled
thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment
such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

           If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or
Government Securities in accordance with Section 12.01 by reason of any legal
proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental
authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, any
Issuer's and any Guarantor's obligations under this Indenture and the Notes
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to
Section 12.01; provided that if the Issuers have made any payment of principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of
their obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders
of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities
held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

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

           1. INTEREST. Each of ISP Chemco Inc., a Delaware corporation, ISP
Chemicals Inc., a Delaware corporation, ISP Minerals Inc., a Delaware
corporation, and ISP Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuers"),
promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 10 1/4% per
annum from June 27, 2001 until maturity and shall pay the Liquidated Damages
payable pursuant to Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred to
below. The Issuers will pay interest and Liquidated Damages semi-annually in
arrears on January 1 and July 1, of each year, or if any such day is not a
Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an "Interest Payment
Date"). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of
issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of
interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on
the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall
accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, further, that
the first Interest Payment Date shall be January 1, 2002. The Issuers shall pay
interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on
demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; they
shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Liquidated Damages
(without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at
the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

           2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuers will pay interest on the Notes
(except defaulted interest) and Liquidated Damages to the Persons who are
registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the December 15 or June
15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled
after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as
provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest.
The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium and Liquidated Damages, if
any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained for such
purpose or, at the option of the Issuers, payment of interest and Liquidated
Damages may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth
in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of
immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and
interest, premium and Liquidated Damages on, all Global Notes and all other
Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the
Issuers or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of
the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts.

           3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wilmington Trust Company,
the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The
Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.
The Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

           4. INDENTURE. The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture dated
as of June 27, 2001 (the "Indenture") among the Issuers, the Guarantors party
thereto (the "Guarantors") and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those
stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the

                                      A1-2
<PAGE>
Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code ss.ss. 77aaa-77bbbb). The
Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture
and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this
Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of
the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are obligations of each
of the Issuers unlimited in aggregate principal amount.

           5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

           (a) Except as set forth in clause (b) of this Paragraph 5, the
Issuers shall not have the option to redeem the Notes pursuant to this Paragraph

notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at the redemption
prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the notes
redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month

         2008............................................     101.708%
         2009 and thereafter.............................     100.000%

           (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (a) of this Paragraph 5,
at any time prior to July 1, 2004, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions
redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of notes originally issued
under the Indenture at a redemption price of 110.25% of the principal amount,
plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the
redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings;
provided that (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of notes
originally issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the
occurrence of such redemption (excluding notes held by the Issuers and its
Affiliates); and (2) notice of the redemption is given within 30 days of the
date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

           6. MANDATORY REDEMPTION.

           Except as set forth in paragraph 7 below, the Issuers shall not be
required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to
the Notes.

           7. REPURCHASE AT OPTION HOLDER.

           (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuers shall be
required to make an offer (a "Change of Control Offer") to each Holder to
repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of
each Holder's Notes (other than Notes previously called for redemption) at a
purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages thereon, if any, on the Notes
repurchased to the date of purchase (the "Change of Control Payment"). Within 30
days following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall mail a notice to each
Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as
required by the Indenture.

           (b) If an Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary consummates any Asset
Sales, when the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $5 million, the
Issuers shall commence an offer to all Holders of Notes (an "Asset Sale Offer")
pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture to purchase the maximum principal
amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) that may be purchased out of
the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages

                                      A1-3
<PAGE>
thereon, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate
amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) tendered pursuant to an Asset
Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, such Issuer (or such Restricted
Subsidiary) may use such deficiency for general corporate purposes. If the
aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the
amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on
a pro rata basis. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase
will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Issuers prior to any related purchase
date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled
"Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse of the Notes.

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

           9. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered
form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as
provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder,
among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents
and the Issuers may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law
or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuers need not exchange or register the
transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for
the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuers
need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of a selection of
Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of selection
or during the period between a record date and the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date.

           10. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be
treated as its owner for all purposes.

           11. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions,
the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented
with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes and Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single
class, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the
Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of
the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and
Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any
Holder of a Note, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be amended
or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for
uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to
provide for the assumption of an Issuer's or Guarantor's obligations to Holders
of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change that would
provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that
does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such
Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or
maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, to
provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations
set forth in the Indenture, or to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental
indenture to the Indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes.

           12. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default include: (i) default for
30 days in the payment when due of interest or Liquidated Damages on the Notes
whether or not prohibited by Article 10 of the Indenture; (ii) default in

                                      A1-4
<PAGE>
payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes whether or not
prohibited by Article 10 of the Indenture when the same becomes due and payable
at maturity, upon redemption (including in connection with an offer to purchase)
or otherwise, (iii) failure by the Issuers to comply with Section 4.10, 4.15 or
5.01 of the Indenture (unless such provisions are not at the time applicable
pursuant to Section 4.20 of the Indenture); (iv) failure for 30 days by the
Issuers to comply with Section 4.07 or 4.09 of the Indenture (unless such
provisions are not at the time applicable pursuant to Section 4.20 of the
Indenture); (v) failure by the Issuers for 60 days after notice to the Issuers
by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes
(including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class
to comply with certain other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes; (vi)
default under certain other agreements relating to Indebtedness of the Issuers
which default results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its
express maturity; (vii) certain final judgments for the payment of money that
remain undischarged for a period of 60 days; (viii) certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency with respect to any Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
(ix) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Note Guarantee shall be held in
any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any
reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor or any Person acting on
its behalf shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under such Guarantor's Note
Guarantee; and (x) failure by the Issuers to place the amount contemplated in
Section 4.21 of the Indenture into the Escrow Account on the Closing Date; or
failure by ISP to retire the 2002 Notes on or prior to February 15, 2002. If any
Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the
Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an
Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all
outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice.
Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the
Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of
any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of
any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default
relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on
behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of
Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or
Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes.
The Issuers are required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement
regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuers are required upon
becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a
statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

           13. SUBORDINATION. Payment of principal, interest and premium and
Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes is subordinated to the prior payment of
Senior Debt on the terms provided in the Indenture.

           14. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH ISSUERS. The Trustee, in its individual or
any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes, and may otherwise
deal with the Issuers or their Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.
However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must
eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to
continue as trustee or resign.

           15. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of any of the Issuers or any of
the Guarantors, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of such
Issuer or such Guarantor under the Notes, the Note Guarantees or the Indenture
or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or
their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such
liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance
of the Notes.

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

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

           18. ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF RESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES AND
RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES. In addition to the rights provided to Holders of
Notes under the Indenture, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted
Definitive Notes shall have all the rights set forth in the A/B Exchange
Registration Rights Agreement dated as of June 27, 2001, among the Issuers, the
Guarantors and the other parties named on the signature pages thereof or, in the
case of Additional Notes, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted
Definitive Notes shall have the rights set forth in one or more registration
rights agreements, if any, among the Issuers, the Guarantors and the other
parties thereto, relating to rights given by the Issuers to the purchasers of
any Additional Notes (collectively, the "Registration Rights Agreement").

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

           The Issuers will furnish to any Holder upon written request and
without charge a copy of the Indenture and/or the Registration Rights Agreement.

           1. INTEREST. Each of ISP Chemco Inc., a Delaware corporation, ISP
Chemicals Inc., a Delaware corporation, ISP Minerals Inc., a Delaware

promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 10 1/4% per
annum from June 27, 2001 until maturity and shall pay the Liquidated Damages

issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of
interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on
the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall
accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, further, that
the first Interest Payment Date shall be January 1, 2002. The Issuers shall pay
interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on
demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; they
shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Liquidated Damages
(without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at
the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

           Until this Regulation S Temporary Global Note is exchanged for one or
more Regulation S Permanent Global Notes, the Holder hereof shall not be
entitled to receive payments of interest hereon; until so exchanged in full,
this Regulation S Temporary Global Note shall in all other respects be entitled
to the same benefits as other Notes under the Indenture.

           2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuers will pay interest on the Notes
(except defaulted interest) and Liquidated Damages to the Persons who are
registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the December 15 or June
15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled
after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as
provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest.
The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, interest and Liquidated
Damages, if any, at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained for such
purpose, or, at the option of the Issuers, payment of interest and Liquidated
Damages may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth
in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of
immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and
interest, premium and Liquidated Damages on, all Global Notes and all other
Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the
Issuers or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of
the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts.

           3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wilmington Trust Company,
the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The
Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.
The Issuers or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

           4. INDENTURE. The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture dated
as of June 27, 2001 (the "Indenture") among the Issuers, the Guarantors and the
Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those
made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as
amended (15 U.S. Code ss.ss. 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such
terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of
such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express
provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be
controlling. The Notes are obligations of each of the Issuers unlimited in
aggregate principal amount.

           5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

           (a) Except as set forth in clause (b) of this Paragraph 5, the
Issuers shall not have the option to redeem the Notes pursuant to this Paragraph
5 prior to July 1, 2006. Thereafter, the Issuers may redeem all or a part of the
notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at the redemption
prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the notes
redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month
period beginning on July 1 of the years indicated below:

         Year                                              Percentage
         ----                                              ----------

         2006...........................................     105.125%
         2007...........................................     103.416%
         2008...........................................     101.708%
         2009 and thereafter............................     100.000%

           (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (a) of this Paragraph 5,
at any time prior to July 1, 2004, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions
redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of notes originally issued
under the Indenture at a redemption price of 110.25% of the principal amount,
plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the
redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings;
provided that (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of notes
originally issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the
occurrence of such redemption (excluding notes held by the Issuers and its
Affiliates); and (2) notice of the redemption is given within 30 days of the
date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

           6. MANDATORY REDEMPTION.

           Except as set forth in paragraph 7 below, the Issuers shall not be
required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to
the Notes.

           7. REPURCHASE AT OPTION OF HOLDER.

           (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuers shall be
required to make an offer (a "Change of Control Offer") to each Holder to
repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of
each Holder's Notes (other than Notes previously called for redemption) at a
purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages thereon, if any, on the Notes
repurchased to the date of purchase (the "Change of Control Payment"). Within 30
days following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall mail a notice to each

                                      A2-4
<PAGE>
Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as
required by the Indenture.

           (b) If an Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary consummates any Asset
Sales, when the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $5 million, the
Issuers shall commence an offer to all Holders of Notes (an "Asset Sale Offer")
pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture to purchase the maximum principal
amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) that may be purchased out of
the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages
thereon, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate
amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) tendered pursuant to an Asset
Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, such Issuer (or such Restricted
Subsidiary) may use such deficiency for general corporate purposes. If the
aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the
amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on
a pro rata basis. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase
will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Issuers prior to any related purchase
date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled
"Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse of the Notes.

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

           9. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered
form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as
provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder,
among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents
and the Issuers may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law
or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuers need not exchange or register the
transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for
the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuers
need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of a selection of
Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of selection
or during the period between a record date and the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date.

           This Regulation S Temporary Global Note is exchangeable in whole or
in part for one or more Global Notes only (i) on or after the termination of the
40-day restricted period (as defined in Regulation S) and (ii) upon presentation
of certificates (accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel, if applicable) required
by Article 2 of the Indenture. Upon exchange of this Regulation S Temporary
Global Note for one or more Global Notes, the Trustee shall cancel this
Regulation S Temporary Global Note.

           10. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be
treated as its owner for all purposes.

           11. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions,
the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented
with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes and Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single
class, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the
Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of
the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and

                                      A2-5
<PAGE>
Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any
Holder of a Note, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be amended
or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for
uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to
provide for the assumption of an Issuer's or Guarantor's obligations to Holders
of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change that would
provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that
does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such
Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or
maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, to
provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations
set forth in the Indenture, or to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental
indenture to the Indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes.

           12. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default include: (i) default for
30 days in the payment when due of interest or Liquidated Damages on the Notes
whether or not prohibited by Article 10 of the Indenture; (ii) default in
payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes whether or not
prohibited by Article 10 of the Indenture when the same becomes due and payable
at maturity, upon redemption (including in connection with an offer to purchase)
or otherwise, (iii) failure by the Issuers to comply with Section 4.10, 4.15 or
5.01 of the Indenture (unless such provisions are not at the time applicable
pursuant to Section 4.20 of the Indenture); (iv) failure for 30 days by the
Issuers to comply with Section 4.07 or 4.09 of the Indenture (unless such
provisions are not at the time applicable pursuant to Section 4.20 of the
Indenture); (v) failure by the Issuers for 60 days after notice to the Issuers
by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes
(including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting as a single class
to comply with certain other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes; (vi)
default under certain other agreements relating to Indebtedness of the Issuers
which default results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its
express maturity; (vii) certain final judgments for the payment of money that
remain undischarged for a period of 60 days; (viii) certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency with respect to any Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
(ix) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Note Guarantee shall be held in
any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any
reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor or any Person acting on
its behalf shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under such Guarantor's Note
Guarantee; and (x) failure by the Issuers to place the amount contemplated in
Section 4.21 of the Indenture into the Escrow Account on the Closing Date; or
failure by ISP to retire the 2002 Notes on or prior to February 15, 2002.. If
any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the
Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an
Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all
outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice.
Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the
Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of
any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of
any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default
relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on
behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of
Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or
Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes.
The Issuers are required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement
regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuers are required upon
becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a
statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

<PAGE>
           13. SUBORDINATION. Payment of principal, interest and premium and
Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes is subordinated to the prior payment of
Senior Debt on the terms provided in the Indenture.

           14. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH ISSUERS. The Trustee, in its individual or
any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of the Notes and may
otherwise deal with the Issuers or their Affiliates, as if it were not the
Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting
interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for
permission to continue as trustee or resign.

           15. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of any of the Issuers or any of
the Guarantors, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of such
Issuer or such Guarantor under the Notes, the Note Guarantees or the Indenture
or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or
their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such
liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance
of the Notes.

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

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

           18. ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF RESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES AND
RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES. In addition to the rights provided to Holders of
Notes under the Indenture, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted
Definitive Notes shall have all the rights set forth in the A/B Exchange
Registration Rights Agreement dated as of June 27, 2001, among the Issuers, the
Guarantors and the other parties named on the signature pages thereof or, in the
case of Additional Notes, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted
Definitive Notes shall have the rights set forth in one or more registration
rights agreements, if any, among the Issuers, the Guarantors and the other
parties thereto, relating to rights given by the Issuers to the purchasers of
any Additional Notes (collectively, the "Registration Rights Agreement").

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

           The Issuers will furnish to any Holder upon written request and
without charge a copy of the Indenture and/or the Registration Rights Agreement.

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

           1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without

           2. AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees
as follows:

                     (a) Along with all Guarantors named in the Indenture, to
           jointly and severally Guarantee to each Holder of a Note
           authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its
           successors and assigns, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuers
           hereunder or thereunder, that:

                               (i) the principal of and interest on the Notes
                    will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity,
                    by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on

                    promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with
                    the terms hereof and thereof; and

                               (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment
                    or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations,

                    performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or
                    renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
                    otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so

<PAGE>
                    guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever
                    reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally
                    obligated to pay the same immediately.

                     (b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional,
           irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the
           Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the
           same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect
           to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment
           against the Issuers, any action to enforce the same or any other
           circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
           discharge or defense of a guarantor.

                     (c) The following is hereby waived: diligence presentment,
           demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of
           insolvency or bankruptcy of any Issuer, any right to require a
           proceeding first against an Issuer, protest, notice and all demands
           whatsoever.

                     (d) This Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by
           complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and
           the Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all
           obligations of a Guarantor under the Indenture.

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

                     (f) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to
           any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any
           obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all
           obligations guaranteed hereby.

                     (g) As between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the
           Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the
           obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in
           Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Note Guarantee,
           notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing
           such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby,
           and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such
           obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such
           obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become
           due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note
           Guarantee.

                     (h) The Guarantors shall have the right to seek
           contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of
           such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the
           Guarantee.

                     (i) Pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, after
           giving effect to any maximum amount and any other contingent and
           fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy
           or fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any
           collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments
           made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the
           obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 10 of the
           Indenture, this new Note Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum
           amount permissible such that the obligations of such Guarantor under
           this Note Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent transfer or
           conveyance.

           3. EXECUTION AND DELIVERY. Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that
the Note Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.

           4. GUARANTEEING SUBSIDIARY mAY CONSOLIDATE, eTC. ON CERTAIN TERMS.

                     (a) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary may not consolidate with or
           merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving
           Person) another corporation, Person or entity whether or not
           affiliated with such Guarantor unless:

                               (i) subject to Sections 10.04 and 10.05 of the
                    Indenture, the Person formed by or surviving any such
                    consolidation or merger (if other than a Guarantor or an
                    Issuer) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of such
                    Guarantor, pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and
                    substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, under the
                    Notes, the Indenture and the Note Guarantee on the terms set
                    forth herein or therein; and

                               (ii) immediately after giving effect to such
                    transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists.

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

                     (c) Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 and Section
           11.06 of Article 11 of the Indenture, and notwithstanding clauses (a)
           and (b) above, nothing contained in the Indenture or in any of the
           Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with
           or into an Issuer or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or
           conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or
           substantially as an entirety to an Issuer or another Guarantor.

           5. RELEASES.

                     (a) In the event of a sale or other disposition of all of
           the assets of any Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or
           otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all to the capital stock
           of any Guarantor, in each case to a Person that is not (either before
           or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary
           of an Issuer, then such Guarantor (in the event of a sale or other
           disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all of
           the capital stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation acquiring the
           property (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or
           substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) will be released
           and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee; provided
           that the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied
           in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture,
           including without limitation Section 4.10 of the Indenture. Upon
           delivery by the Issuers to the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate
           and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale or other
           disposition was made by such Issuer in accordance with the provisions
           of the Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.10 of the
           Indenture, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably
           required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its
           obligations under its Note Guarantee.

                                      F-3
<PAGE>
                     (b) Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under
           its Note Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of
           principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations
           of any Guarantor under the Indenture as provided in Article 11 of the
           Indenture.

           6. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of any Issuer
or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any Note Guarantees, the
Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect
of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the
Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may
not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it
is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.

           7. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE BUT WITHOUT
GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT
THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

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

           9. EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The Section headings herein are for
convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

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

           IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Supplemental
Indenture to be duly executed and attested, all as of the date first above
written.

Act and each (B) Series B Note held by a Broker Dealer until the date on which

(including the delivery of the Prospectus contained therein).

SECTION 2. HOLDERS

           A Person is deemed to be a holder of Transfer Restricted Securities
(each, a "HOLDER") whenever such Person owns Transfer Restricted Securities.

SECTION 3. REGISTERED EXCHANGE OFFER

           (a) Unless the Exchange Offer shall not be permitted by applicable
federal law (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a)(i) below have been
complied with), the Issuers and the Guarantors shall (i) cause the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement to be filed with the Commission as soon as
practicable after the Closing Date, but in no event later than 90 days after the
Closing Date (such 90th day being the "FILING DEADLINE"), (ii) use its best
efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective
at the earliest possible time, but in no event later than 180 days after the
Closing Date (such 180th day being the "EFFECTIVENESS DEADLINE"), (iii) in
connection with the foregoing, (A) file all pre-effective amendments to such
Exchange Offer Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to cause it
to become effective, (B) file, if applicable, a post-effective amendment to such
Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Act and
(C) cause all necessary filings, if any, in connection with the registration and
qualification of the Series B Notes to be made under the Blue Sky laws of such
jurisdictions as are necessary to permit Consummation of the Exchange Offer, and
(iv) upon the effectiveness of such Exchange Offer Registration Statement,
commence and Consummate the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer shall be on the
appropriate form permitting (i) registration of the Series B Notes to be offered
in exchange for the Series A Notes that are Transfer Restricted Securities and
(ii) resales of Series B Notes by Broker-Dealers that tendered into the Exchange
Offer Series A Notes that such Broker-Dealer acquired for its own account as a
result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than
Series A Notes acquired directly from the Issuers or any of their Affiliates) as
contemplated by Section 3(c) below.

           (b) The Issuers and the Guarantors shall use their respective best
efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be effective
continuously, and shall keep the Exchange Offer open for a period of not less
than the minimum period required under applicable federal and state securities
laws to Consummate the Exchange Offer; provided, however, that in no event shall

                                       3
<PAGE>
such period be less than 20 business days. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall
cause the Exchange Offer to comply with all applicable federal and state
securities laws. No securities other than the Series B Notes shall be included
in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. The Issuers and the Guarantors
shall use their respective best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer to be
Consummated on the earliest practicable date after the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement has become effective, but in no event later than 30
business days thereafter (such 30th day being the "CONSUMMATION DEADLINE").

           (c) The Issuers shall include a "Plan of Distribution" section in the
Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and indicate
therein that any Broker-Dealer who holds Transfer Restricted Securities that
were acquired for the account of such Broker-Dealer as a result of market-making
activities or other trading activities (other than Series A Notes acquired
directly from the Issuers or any Affiliate of the Issuers), may exchange such
Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer. Such "Plan of
Distribution" section shall also contain all other information with respect to
such sales by such Broker-Dealers that the Commission may require in order to
permit such sales pursuant thereto, but such "Plan of Distribution" shall not
name any such Broker-Dealer or disclose the amount of Transfer Restricted
Securities held by any such Broker-Dealer, except to the extent required by the
Commission as a result of a change in policy, rules or regulations after the
date of this Agreement. See the Shearman & Sterling no-action letter (available
July 2, 1993).

           Because such Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be an "underwriter"
within the meaning of the Act and must, therefore, deliver a prospectus meeting
the requirements of the Act in connection with its initial sale of any Series B
Notes received by such Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offer, the Issuers and
Guarantors shall permit the use of the Prospectus contained in the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement by such Broker-Dealer to satisfy such prospectus
delivery requirement. To the extent necessary to ensure that the prospectus
contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is available for sales of
Series B Notes by Broker-Dealers, the Issuers and the Guarantors agree to use
their respective best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
continuously effective, supplemented, amended and current as required by and
subject to the provisions of Section 6(a) and Section 6 (c) hereof and in
conformity with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies,
rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a
period of one year from the Consummation Deadline or such shorter period as will
terminate when all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Registration
Statement have been sold pursuant thereto. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall
provide sufficient copies of the latest version of such Prospectus to such
Broker-Dealers, promptly upon request, and in no event later than one day after
such request, at any time during such period.

SECTION 4.  SHELF REGISTRATION

           (a) Shelf Registration. If (i) the Issuers and the Guarantors are not
(A) required to file the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or (B) permitted
to Consummate the Exchange Offer because the Exchange Offer is not permitted by
applicable law or Commission policy (after the Issuers and the Guarantors have
complied with the procedures set forth in Section 6(a)(i) below) or (ii) if any
Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall notify the Issuers within 20
business days following the Consummation of the Exchange Offer that (A) such

                                       4
<PAGE>
Holder was prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating in the
Exchange Offer or (B) such Holder may not resell the Series B Notes acquired by
it in the Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and the
Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not
appropriate or available for such resales by such Holder or (C) such Holder is a
Broker-Dealer and holds Series A Notes acquired directly from the Issuers or any
of their Affiliates, then the Issuers and the Guarantors shall:

      (x) cause to be filed, on or prior to 30 days after the earlier of (i) the
date on which the Company determines that the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement cannot be filed as a result of clause (a)(i) above and (ii) the date
on which the Company receives the notice specified in clause (a)(ii) above,
(such earlier date, the "FILING DEADLINE"), a shelf registration statement
pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act (which may be an amendment to the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement) (the "SHELF REGISTRATION STATEMENT"), relating to
all Transfer Restricted Securities, and

      (y) shall use their respective best efforts to cause such Shelf
Registration Statement to become effective on or prior to 90 days after the
Filing Deadline for the Shelf Registration Statement (such 90th day the
"EFFECTIVENESS DEADLINE").

           If, after the Issuers have filed an Exchange Offer Registration
Statement that satisfies the requirements of Section 3(a) above, the Issuers are
required to file and make effective a Shelf Registration Statement solely
because the Exchange Offer is not permitted under applicable federal law (i.e.,
clause (a)(i) above), then the filing of the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of clause (x) above;
provided that, in such event, the Issuers shall remain obligated to meet the
Effectiveness Deadline set forth in clause (y) above.

           To the extent necessary to ensure that the Shelf Registration
Statement is available for sales of Transfer Restricted Securities by the
Holders thereof entitled to the benefit of this Section 4(a) and the other
securities required to be registered therein pursuant to Section 6(b)(ii)
hereof, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall use their respective best efforts
to keep any Shelf Registration Statement required by this Section 4(a)
continuously effective, supplemented, amended and current as required by and
subject to the provisions of Section 6(b) and Section 6(c) hereof and in
conformity with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies,
rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a
period of at least two years (as extended pursuant to Section 6(c)(i) hereof)
following the Closing Date, or such shorter period as will terminate when all
Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have
been sold pursuant thereto.

           (b) Provision by Holders of Certain Information in Connection with
the Shelf Registration Statement. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities
may include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf Registration
Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such Holder furnishes to
the Issuers in writing, within 10 business days after receipt of a request
therefor, the information specified in Item 507 or Item 508 of Regulation S-K,
as applicable, of the Act for use in connection with any Shelf Registration
Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus included therein. No Holder of
Transfer Restricted Securities shall be entitled to liquidated damages pursuant
to Section 5 hereof unless and until such Holder shall have provided all such

                                       5
<PAGE>
information. Each selling Holder agrees to promptly furnish additional
information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously
furnished to the Issuers by such Holder not materially misleading.

SECTION 5. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

           If (i) any Registration Statement required by this Agreement is not
filed with the Commission on or prior to the applicable Filing Deadline, (ii)
any such Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the
Commission on or prior to the applicable Effectiveness Deadline, (iii) the
Exchange Offer has not been Consummated on or prior to the Consummation Deadline
or (iv) any Registration Statement required by this Agreement is filed and
declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective or fail to be
usable for its intended purpose without being succeeded immediately by a
post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that cures such failure
and that is itself declared effective immediately (each such event referred to
in clauses (i) through (iv), a "REGISTRATION DEFAULT"), then the Issuers and the
Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay to each Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities affected thereby liquidated damages in an amount equal to
$.05 per week per $1,000 in principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities
held by such Holder for each week or portion thereof that the Registration
Default continues for the first 90-day period immediately following the
occurrence of such Registration Default. The amount of the liquidated damages
shall increase by an additional $.05 per week per $1,000 in principal amount of
Transfer Restricted Securities with respect to each subsequent 90-day period
until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum amount of
liquidated damages of $.50 per week per $1,000 in principal amount of Transfer
Restricted Securities; provided that the Issuers and the Guarantors shall in no
event be required to pay liquidated damages for more than one Registration
Default at any given time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
herein, (1) upon filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (and/or, if
applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement), in the case of (i) above, (2)
upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (and/or, if
applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement), in the case of (ii) above, (3)
upon Consummation of the Exchange Offer, in the case of (iii) above, or (4) upon
the filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or an
additional Registration Statement that causes the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement (and/or, if applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement) to again be
declared effective or made usable in the case of (iv) above, the liquidated
damages payable with respect to the Transfer Restricted Securities as a result
of such clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), as applicable, shall cease.

           All accrued liquidated damages shall be paid to the Holders entitled
thereto, in the manner provided for the payment of interest in the Indenture, on
each Interest Payment Date, as more fully set forth in the Indenture and the
Notes. Notwithstanding the fact that any securities for which liquidated damages
are due cease to be Transfer Restricted Securities, all obligations of the
Issuers and the Guarantors to pay liquidated damages with respect to securities
shall survive until such time as such obligations with respect to such
securities shall have been satisfied in full.

SECTION 6.  REGISTRATION PROCEDURES

           (a) Exchange Offer Registration Statement. In connection with the
Exchange Offer, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall (x) comply with all
applicable provisions of Section 6(c) below, (y) use their respective best
efforts to effect such exchange and to permit the resale of Series B Notes by
Broker-Dealers that tendered in the Exchange Offer Series A Notes that such
Broker-Dealer acquired for its own account as a result of its market-making
activities or other trading activities (other than Series A Notes acquired
directly from the Issuers or any of their Affiliates) being sold in accordance
with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and (z) comply with
all of the following provisions:

         (i) If, following the date hereof there has been announced a change in
         Commission policy with respect to exchange offers such as the Exchange
         Offer, that in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Issuers raises
         a substantial question as to whether the Exchange Offer is permitted by
         applicable federal law, the Issuers and the Guarantors hereby agree to
         seek a no-action letter or other favorable decision from the Commission
         allowing the Issuers and the Guarantors to Consummate an Exchange Offer
         for such Transfer Restricted Securities. The Issuers and the Guarantors
         hereby agree to pursue the issuance of such a decision to the
         Commission staff level. In connection with the foregoing, the Issuers
         and the Guarantors hereby agree to take all such other actions as may
         be requested by the Commission or otherwise required in connection with
         the issuance of such decision, including without limitation (A)
         participating in telephonic conferences with the Commission, (B)
         delivering to the Commission staff an analysis prepared by counsel to
         the Issuers setting forth the legal bases, if any, upon which such
         counsel has concluded that such an Exchange Offer should be permitted
         and (C) diligently pursuing a resolution (which need not be favorable)
         by the Commission staff.

         (ii) As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer, each
         Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (including, without
         limitation, any Holder who is a Broker-Dealer) shall furnish, upon the
         request of the Issuers, prior to the Consummation of the Exchange
         Offer, a written representation to the Issuers and the Guarantors
         (which may be contained in the letter of transmittal contemplated by
         the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) to the effect that (A) it is
         not an Affiliate of the Issuers, (B) it is not engaged in, and does not
         intend to engage in, and has no arrangement or understanding with any
         person to participate in, a distribution of the Series B Notes to be
         issued in the Exchange Offer and (C) it is acquiring the Series B Notes
         in its ordinary course of business. As a condition to its participation
         in the Exchange Offer each Holder using the Exchange Offer to
         participate in a distribution of the Series B Notes shall acknowledge
         and agree that, if the resales are of Series B Notes obtained by such
         Holder in exchange for Series A Notes acquired directly from the
         Issuers or an Affiliate thereof, it (1) could not, under Commission
         policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement, rely on the position
         of the Commission enunciated in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation
         (available May 13, 1988) and Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (available
         June 5, 1991), as interpreted in the Commission's letter to Shearman &
         Sterling dated July 2, 1993, and similar no-action letters (including,
         if applicable, any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i)
         above), and (2) must comply with the registration and prospectus
         delivery requirements of the Act in connection with a secondary resale

                                       7
<PAGE>
         transaction and that such a secondary resale transaction must be
         covered by an effective registration statement containing the selling
         security holder information required by Item 507 or Item 508, as
         applicable, of Regulation S-K.

         (iii) Prior to effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration
         Statement, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall provide a supplemental
         letter to the Commission (A) stating that the Issuers and the
         Guarantors are registering the Exchange Offer in reliance on the
         position of the Commission enunciated in Exxon Capital Holdings
         Corporation (available May 13, 1988), Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc.
         (available June 5, 1991) as interpreted in the Commission's letter to
         Shearman & Sterling dated July 2, 1993, and, if applicable, any
         no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above, (B) including a
         representation that neither any Issuer nor any Guarantor has entered
         into any arrangement or understanding with any Person to distribute the
         Series B Notes to be received in the Exchange Offer and that, to the
         best of each Issuer's and each Guarantor's information and belief, each
         Holder participating in the Exchange Offer is acquiring the Series B
         Notes in its ordinary course of business and has no arrangement or
         understanding with any Person to participate in the distribution of the
         Series B Notes received in the Exchange Offer and (C) any other
         undertaking or representation required by the Commission as set forth
         in any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above, if
         applicable.

           (b) Shelf Registration Statement. In connection with the Shelf
Registration Statement, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall:

         (i) comply with all the provisions of Section 6(c) below and use their
         respective reasonable best efforts to effect such registration to
         permit the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold in
         accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof
         (as indicated in the information furnished to the Company pursuant to
         Section 4(b) hereof), and pursuant thereto the Issuers and the
         Guarantors will prepare and file with the Commission a Registration
         Statement relating to the registration on any appropriate form under
         the Act, which form shall be available for the sale of the Transfer
         Restricted Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods
         of distribution thereof within the time periods and otherwise in
         accordance with the provisions hereof, and

         (ii) issue, upon the request of any Holder or purchaser of Series A
         Notes covered by any Shelf Registration Statement contemplated by this
         Agreement, Series B Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to
         the aggregate principal amount of Series A Notes sold pursuant to the
         Shelf Registration Statement and surrendered to the Issuers for
         cancellation; the Issuers shall register Series B Notes on the Shelf
         Registration Statement for this purpose and issue the Series B Notes to
         the purchasers of securities subject to the Shelf Registration
         Statement in the names as such purchasers shall designate.

           (c) General Provisions. In connection with any Registration Statement
and any related Prospectus required by this Agreement, the Issuers and the
Guarantors shall:

                                       8
<PAGE>
         (i) use their respective reasonable best efforts to keep such
         Registration Statement continuously effective and provide all requisite
         financial statements for the period specified in Section 3 or Section 4
         of this Agreement, as applicable. Upon the occurrence of any event that
         would cause any such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained
         therein (A) to contain an untrue statement of material fact or omit to
         state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not
         misleading or (B) not to be effective and usable for resale of Transfer
         Restricted Securities during the period required by this Agreement, the
         Issuers and the Guarantors shall file promptly an appropriate amendment
         to such Registration Statement curing such defect, and, if Commission
         review is required, use their respective best efforts to cause such
         amendment to be declared effective as soon as practicable.
         Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers and the Guarantors may allow
         the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus to cease to
         become effective and usable if (x) the board of directors of the
         Company determines in good faith that it is in the best interests of
         the Company not to disclose the existence of or facts surrounding any
         proposed or pending material corporate transaction involving the
         Issuers or the Guarantors, and the Company notifies the Holders within
         two business days after such board of directors makes such
         determination, or (y) the Prospectus contained in the Shelf
         Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact
         or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
         statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
         were made, not misleading; provided that the two-year period referred
         to in Section 4(a) hereof during which the Shelf Registration Statement
         is required to be effective and usable shall be extended by the number
         of days during which such Registration Statement was not effective or
         usable pursuant to the foregoing provisions;

         (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
         post-effective amendments to the applicable Registration Statement as
         may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the
         applicable period set forth in Section 3 or Section 4 hereof, as the
         case may be; cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required
         Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to
         Rule 424 under the Act, and to comply fully with Rules 424, 430A and
         462, as applicable, under the Act in a timely manner; and comply with
         the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all
         securities covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable
         period in accordance with the intended method or methods of
         distribution by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration
         Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;

         (iii) subject to Section 6(c)(i), if any fact or event contemplated by
         Section 6(d)(i)(D) above shall exist or have occurred, prepare a
         supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or
         related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or
         file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to
         the purchasers of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Prospectus will
         not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
         material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of
         the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

         (iv) in connection with any sale of Transfer Restricted Securities that
         will result in such securities no longer being Transfer Restricted
         Securities, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely

                                       9
<PAGE>
         preparation and delivery of certificates representing Transfer
         Restricted Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive
         legends; and to register such Transfer Restricted Securities in such
         denominations and such names as the selling Holders may request at
         least two business days prior to such sale of Transfer Restricted
         Securities;

         (v) use their respective best efforts to cause the disposition of the
         Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Registration Statement to
         be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or
         authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof
         to consummate the disposition of such Transfer Restricted Securities,
         subject to the proviso contained in Section 6 (d)(ix) below;

         (vi) provide a CUSIP number for all Transfer Restricted Securities not
         later than the effective date of a Registration Statement covering such
         Transfer Restricted Securities and provide the Trustee under the
         Indenture with printed certificates for the Transfer Restricted
         Securities which are in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository
         Trust Company;

         (vii) otherwise use their respective best efforts to comply with all
         applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make generally
         available to its security holders with regard to any applicable
         Registration Statement, as soon as practicable, a consolidated earnings
         statement meeting the requirements of Rule 158 (which need not be
         audited) covering a twelve-month period beginning after the effective
         date of the Registration Statement (as such term is defined in
         paragraph (c) of Rule 158 under the Act);

         (viii) cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA not later than
         the effective date of the first Registration Statement required by this
         Agreement and, in connection therewith, cooperate with the Trustee and
         the Holders to effect such changes to the Indenture as may be required
         for such Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of
         the TIA; and execute and use its best efforts to cause the Trustee to
         execute, all documents that may be required to effect such changes and
         all other forms and documents required to be filed with the Commission
         to enable such Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner; and

         (ix) provide promptly to each Holder, upon request, each document filed
         with the Commission pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or
         Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

           (d) Additional Provisions Applicable to Shelf Registration
Statements. In connection with any Shelf Registration Statement and any related
Prospectus required by this Agreement, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall:

         (i) advise each Holder promptly and, if requested by such Holder,
         confirm such advice in writing, (A) when the Prospectus or any
         Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and,
         with respect to any applicable Shelf Registration Statement or any
         post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective,

                                       10
<PAGE>
         (B) of any request by the Commission for amendments to the Shelf
         Registration Statement or amendments or supplements to the Prospectus
         or for additional information relating thereto, (C) of the issuance by
         the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
         Shelf Registration Statement under the Act or of the suspension by any
         state securities commission of the qualification of the Transfer
         Restricted Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the
         initiation of any proceeding for any of the preceding purposes, (D) of
         the existence of any fact or the happening of any event that makes any
         statement of a material fact made in the Shelf Registration Statement,
         the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto or any document
         incorporated by reference therein untrue, or that requires the making
         of any additions to or changes in the Shelf Registration Statement in
         order to make the statements therein not misleading, or that requires
         the making of any additions to or changes in the Prospectus in order to
         make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
         which they were made, not misleading. If at any time the Commission
         shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
         Registration Statement, or any state securities commission or other
         regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification
         or exemption from qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities
         under state securities or Blue Sky laws, the Issuers and the Guarantors
         shall use their respective best efforts to obtain the withdrawal or
         lifting of such order at the earliest possible time;

         (ii) if requested in writing, furnish to each Holder in connection with
         such sale, if any, before filing with the Commission, copies of any
         Shelf Registration Statement or any Prospectus included therein or any
         amendments or supplements to any such Shelf Registration Statement or
         Prospectus (including all documents incorporated by reference after the
         initial filing of such Shelf Registration Statement), which documents
         will be subject to the review and comment of such Holders in connection
         with such sale, if any, for a period of at least five business days,
         and the Company will not file any such Shelf Registration Statement or
         Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any such Shelf
         Registration Statement or Prospectus (including all such documents
         incorporated by reference) to which such Holders shall reasonably
         object within five business days after the receipt thereof. A Holder
         shall be deemed to have reasonably objected to such filing if such
         Shelf Registration Statement, amendment, Prospectus or supplement, as
         applicable, as proposed to be filed, contains an untrue statement of a
         material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the
         statements therein not misleading or fails to comply with the
         applicable requirements of the Act;

         (iii) promptly prior to the filing of any document that is to be
         incorporated by reference into a Shelf Registration Statement or
         Prospectus, provide copies of such document to each Holder in
         connection with such sale, if any, make the Issuers' and the
         Guarantors' representatives available for discussion of such document
         and other customary due diligence matters, and include such information
         in such document prior to the filing thereof as such Holders may
         reasonably request;

         (iv) make available, at reasonable times, for inspection by each Holder
         and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders, all financial
         and other records, pertinent corporate documents of the Issuers and the
         Guarantors and cause the Issuers' and the Guarantors' officers,

                                       11
<PAGE>
         directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested
         by any such Holder, attorney or accountant in connection with such
         Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto
         subsequent to the filing thereof and prior to its effectiveness;

         (v) if requested by any Holders in connection with such exchange or
         sale, promptly include in any Shelf Registration Statement or
         Prospectus, pursuant to a supplement or post-effective amendment if
         necessary, such information as such Holders may reasonably request to
         have included therein, including, without limitation, information
         relating to the "Plan of Distribution" of the Transfer Restricted
         Securities; and make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement
         or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company is
         notified of the matters to be included in such Prospectus supplement or
         post-effective amendment;

         (vi) furnish to each Holder in connection with such sale, without
         charge, at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement, as first
         filed with the Commission, and of each amendment thereto, including all
         documents incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits (including
         exhibits incorporated therein by reference);

         (vii) deliver to each Holder without charge, as many copies of the
         Prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or
         supplement thereto as such Persons reasonably may request; the Issuers
         and the Guarantors hereby consent to the use (in accordance with law)
         of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each
         selling Holder in connection with the offering and the sale of the
         Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Prospectus or any
         amendment or supplement thereto;

         (viii) upon the request of any Holder, enter into such agreements
         (including underwriting agreements) and make such representations and
         warranties and take all such other actions in connection therewith in
         order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Transfer
         Restricted Securities pursuant to any applicable Registration Statement
         contemplated by this Agreement as may be reasonably requested by any
         Holder in connection with any sale or resale pursuant to any Shelf
         Registration Statement. In such connection, the Issuers and the
         Guarantors shall:

                  (A) upon request of any Holder, furnish (or in the case of
                  paragraphs (2) and (3), use their respective reasonable best
                  efforts to cause to be furnished) to each Holder, upon the
                  effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement:

                           (1) a certificate, dated such date, signed on behalf
                           of each Issuer and each Guarantor by (x) the
                           President or any Vice President and (y) a principal
                           financial or accounting officer of such Issuer and
                           such Guarantor, confirming, as of the date thereof,
                           the matters set forth in Sections 8(a), 8(b), 8(c),
                           8(d) and 8(q) of the Purchase Agreement and such
                           other similar matters as such Holders may reasonably
                           request;

                           (2) an opinion, dated the date of effectiveness of
                           the Shelf Registration Statement, of counsel for the
                           Issuers and the Guarantors covering matters similar

                                       12
<PAGE>
                           to those set forth in paragraph (f) of Section 8 of
                           the Purchase Agreement and such other matters as such
                           Holder may reasonably request, and in any event
                           including a statement to the effect that such counsel
                           has participated in conferences with officers and
                           other representatives of the Issuers and the
                           Guarantors, representatives of the independent public
                           accountants for the Issuers and the Guarantors and
                           have considered the matters required to be stated
                           therein and the statements contained therein,
                           although such counsel has not independently verified
                           the accuracy, completeness or fairness of such
                           statements; and that such counsel advises that, on
                           the basis of the foregoing (relying as to materiality
                           to the extent such counsel deems appropriate upon the
                           statements of officers and other representatives of
                           the Issuers and the Guarantors and without
                           independent check or verification), no facts came to
                           such counsel's attention that caused such counsel to
                           believe that the Shelf Registration Statement, at the
                           time such Shelf Registration Statement or any
                           post-effective amendment thereto became effective,
                           contained an untrue statement of a material fact or
                           omitted to state a material fact required to be
                           stated therein or necessary to make the statements
                           therein not misleading, or that the Prospectus
                           contained in such Shelf Registration Statement as of
                           its date contained an untrue statement of a material
                           fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in
                           order to make the statements therein, in the light of
                           the circumstances under which they were made, not
                           misleading. Without limiting the foregoing, such
                           counsel may state further that such counsel assumes
                           no responsibility for, and has not independently
                           verified, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of
                           the financial statements, notes and schedules and
                           other financial data included in any Shelf
                           Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement
                           or the related Prospectus; and

                           (3) a customary comfort letter, dated the date of
                           effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement,
                           from the Issuers' independent accountants, in the
                           customary form and covering matters of the type
                           customarily covered in comfort letters to
                           underwriters in connection with underwritten
                           offerings, and affirming the matters set forth in the
                           comfort letters delivered pursuant to Section 8(g) of
                           the Purchase Agreement; and

                  (B) deliver such other documents and certificates as may be
                  reasonably requested by the selling Holders to evidence
                  compliance with the matters covered in clause (A) above and
                  with any customary conditions contained in any agreement
                  entered into by the Issuers and the Guarantors pursuant to
                  this clause (viii);

         (ix) prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Securities,
         cooperate with the selling Holders and their counsel in connection with
         the registration and qualification of the Transfer Restricted
         Securities under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions
         as the selling Holders may request and do any and all other acts or
         things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such
         jurisdictions of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the

                                       13
<PAGE>
         Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that neither any
         Issuer nor any Guarantor shall be required to register or qualify as a
         foreign corporation where it is not now so qualified or to take any
         action that would subject it to the service of process in suits or to
         taxation, other than as to matters and transactions relating to the
         Shelf Registration Statement, in any jurisdiction where it is not now
         so subject.

           (e) Restrictions on Holders. Each Holder agrees by acquisition of a
Transfer Restricted Security that, upon receipt of the notice referred to in
Section 6(d)(i)(C) or any notice from the Issuers of the existence of any fact
of the kind described in Section 6(d)(i)(D) hereof (in each case, a "SUSPENSION
NOTICE"), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer
Restricted Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement until (i)
such Holder has received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus
contemplated by Section 6(c)(iii) hereof, or (ii) such Holder is advised in
writing by the Issuers that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and has
received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated
by reference in the Prospectus (in each case, the "RECOMMENCEMENT DATE"). Each
Holder receiving a Suspension Notice hereby agrees that it will either (i)
destroy any Prospectuses, other than permanent file copies, then in such
Holder's possession which have been replaced by the Issuers with more recently
dated Prospectuses or (ii) deliver to the Issuers (at the Issuers' expense) all
copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder's possession of
the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Securities that was current at
the time of receipt of the Suspension Notice. The time period regarding the
effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement set forth in Section 4 hereof
shall be extended by a number of days equal to the number of days in the period
from and including the date of delivery of the Suspension Notice to the date of
delivery of the Recommencement Date.

SECTION 7.  REGISTRATION EXPENSES

           (a) All expenses incident to the Issuers' and the Guarantors'
performance of or compliance with this Agreement will be borne by the Issuers,
regardless of whether a Registration Statement becomes effective, including
without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees and expenses; (ii) all
fees and expenses of compliance with federal securities and state Blue Sky or
securities laws; (iii) all expenses of printing (including printing certificates
for the Series B Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer and printing of
Prospectuses, messenger and delivery services and telephone); (iv) all fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Issuers and the Guarantors; (v) all application
and filing fees in connection with listing the Series B Notes on a national
securities exchange or automated quotation system pursuant to the requirements
hereof; (vi) all fees and disbursements of independent certified public
accountants of the Issuers and the Guarantors (including the expenses of any
special audit and comfort letters required by or incident to such performance);

           The Issuers will, in any event, bear its and the Guarantors' internal
expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its
officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses of
any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special
experts, retained by the Issuers or the Guarantors.

                                       14
<PAGE>
           (b) In connection with any Registration Statement required by this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement and the Shelf Registration Statement), the Issuers and the Guarantors
will reimburse the Initial Purchasers and the Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities who are tendering Series A Notes into in the Exchange Offer and/or
selling or reselling Series A Notes or Series B Notes pursuant to the "Plan of
Distribution" contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the
Shelf Registration Statement, as applicable, for the reasonable fees and
disbursements of not more than one counsel, who shall be Latham & Watkins,
unless another firm shall be chosen by the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities for whose benefit such Registration
Statement is being prepared.

SECTION 8.  INDEMNIFICATION

           (a) The Issuers and the Guarantors agree, jointly and severally, to
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its directors, officers and each
Person, if any, who controls such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities, judgments (including without limitation, any legal
or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any
matter, including any action that could give rise to any such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or judgments) caused by any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement,
preliminary prospectus or Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto)
provided by the Issuers to any Holder or any prospective purchaser of Series B
Notes or registered Series A Notes, or caused by any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or judgments are caused by an untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that is based upon
information relating to any Holder furnished in writing to the Issuers by such
Holder.

           (b) Each Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and
hold harmless the Issuers and the Guarantors, and their respective directors and
officers, and each person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section
15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Issuers or the Guarantors
to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuers and the
Guarantors set forth in section (a) above, but only with reference to
information relating to such Holder furnished in writing to the Issuers by such
Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement. In no event shall any
Holder, its directors, officers or any Person who controls such Holder be liable
or responsible for any amount in excess of the amount by which the total amount
received by such Holder with respect to its sale of Transfer Restricted
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds (i) the amount paid by
such Holder for such Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) the amount of any
damages that such Holder, its directors, officers or any Person who controls
such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

           (c) In case any action shall be commenced involving any person in
respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or Section
8(b) (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), the indemnified party shall promptly notify the
person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PERSON") in

                                       15
<PAGE>
writing and the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of such action,
including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party and the payment of all fees and expenses of such counsel, as incurred
(except that in the case of any action in respect of which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to both Sections 8(a) and 8(b), a Holder shall not be required
to assume the defense of such action pursuant to this Section 8(c), but may
employ separate counsel and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel, except as provided below, shall be at the expense of
the Holder). Any indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnified party
unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been specifically
authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnifying party
shall have failed to assume the defense of such action or employ counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or (iii) the named parties to
any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnified
party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have been
advised by such counsel and shall have provided notice to the indemnifying party
of such advice of counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available
to it which are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the
right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party).
In any such case, the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one
action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same
jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be
liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in
addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties and all such fees and
expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated
in writing by a majority of the Holders, in the case of the parties indemnified
pursuant to Section 8(a), and by the Issuers and the Guarantors, in the case of
parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall
indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and judgments by reason of any settlement
of any action (i) effected with its written consent or (ii) effected without its
written consent if the settlement is entered into more than twenty business days
after the indemnifying party shall have received a request from the indemnified
party for reimbursement for the fees and expenses of counsel (in any case where
such fees and expenses are at the expense of the indemnifying party) and, prior
to the date of such settlement, the indemnifying party shall have failed to
comply with such reimbursement request. No indemnifying party shall, without the
prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement or
compromise of, or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any pending
or threatened action in respect of which the indemnified party is or could have
been a party and indemnity or contribution may be or could have been sought
hereunder by the indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or
judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all
liability on claims that are or could have been the subject matter of such
action and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault,
culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of the indemnified party.

           (d) To the extent that the indemnification provided for in this
Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or judgments referred to therein, then each
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or judgments (i) in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuers and
the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, from the

                                       16
<PAGE>
sale of Transfer Restricted Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by
clause 8(d)(i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause
8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuers and the Guarantors, on
the one hand, and of the Holders, on the other hand, in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or judgments, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Issuers and the Guarantors, on the one
hand, and of the Holders, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
relates to information supplied by such Issuer or such Guarantor, on the one
hand, or by the Holders, on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and judgments referred to above shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in the second paragraph
of Section 8(a), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such
party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.

           The Issuers, the Guarantors and each Holder agree that it would not
be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were
determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one
entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not
take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a
result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or judgments referred to in
the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any matter,
including any action that could have given rise to such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or judgments. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no
Holder, its directors, its officers or any Person, if any, who controls such
Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess
of the amount by which the total received by such Holder with respect to the
sale of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement
exceeds (i) the amount paid by such Holder for such Transfer Restricted
Securities and (ii) the amount of any damages which such Holder has otherwise
been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Holders' obligations to contribute pursuant to this
Section 8(d) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of
Transfer Restricted Securities held by each Holder hereunder and not joint.

SECTION 9.  RULE 144A AND RULE 144

           Each Issuer and each Guarantor agrees with each Holder, for so long
as any Transfer Restricted Securities remain outstanding and during any period
in which such Issuer or such Guarantor (i) is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act, to make available, upon request of any Holder, to such
Holder or beneficial owner of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with
any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Transfer Restricted
Securities designated by such Holder or beneficial owner, the information
required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act in order to permit resales of such

                                       17
<PAGE>
Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Rule 144A, and (ii) is subject to
Section 13 or 15 (d) of the Exchange Act, to make all filings required thereby
in a timely manner in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted
Securities pursuant to Rule 144.

SECTION 10.  MISCELLANEOUS

           (a) Remedies. The Issuers and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree
that any failure by the Issuers and/or the Guarantors to comply with their
respective obligations under Sections 3 and 4 hereof may result in material
irreparable injury to the Initial Purchasers or the Holders for which there is
no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for
such injuries precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, the Initial
Purchasers or any Holder may obtain such relief as may be required to
specifically enforce the Issuers' and the Guarantors' obligations under Sections
3 and 4 hereof. The Issuers and the Guarantors further agree to waive the
defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be
adequate.

           (b) No Inconsistent Agreements. Neither any Issuer nor any Guarantor
will, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with
respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the
Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.
Neither any Issuer nor any Guarantor has previously entered into any agreement
granting any registration rights with respect to its securities to any Person.
The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and
are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Issuers' and
the Guarantors' securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof.

           (c) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not
be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures
from the provisions hereof may not be given unless (i) in the case of Section 5
hereof and this Section 10(c)(i), the Issuers have obtained the written consent
of Holders of all outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) in the
case of all other provisions hereof, the Issuers have obtained the written
consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer
Restricted Securities (excluding Transfer Restricted Securities held by the
Issuers or their Affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent
to departure from the provisions hereof that relates exclusively to the rights
of Holders whose Transfer Restricted Securities are being tendered pursuant to
the Exchange Offer, and that does not affect directly or indirectly the rights
of other Holders whose Transfer Restricted Securities are not being tendered
pursuant to such Exchange Offer, may be given by the Holders of a majority of
the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities subject to
such Exchange Offer.

           (d) Third Party Beneficiary. The Holders shall be third party
beneficiaries to the agreements made hereunder between the Issuers and the
Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and
shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent they may
deem such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights or the rights
of Holders hereunder.

           (f) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties,
including without limitation and without the need for an express assignment,

Securities shall be held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by
taking and holding such Transfer Restricted Securities such Person shall be
conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to perform all of the

forth in this Agreement and, if applicable, the Purchase Agreement, and such
Person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof.

any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions
contained herein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

           (k) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the parties as a
final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive
statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of
the subject matter contained herein. There are no restrictions, promises,
warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein
with respect to the registration rights granted with respect to the Transfer
Restricted Securities. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.
