         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, HEURISTIC PHYSICS LABORATORIES, INC., a California
corporation ("Borrower"), hereby promises to pay to Adam Kablanian, a California
resident ("Lender"), or order, the principal sum of One Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($1,500,000.00), on ____________, 200_, [TWELVE
MONTHS FROM THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THIS NOTE] (the "Due Date") and to pay
simple interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof on the Due Date at the

any time or from time to time in part, with accrued interest to the date of such
prepayment on the amount prepaid.

         Borrower waives diligence, presentment, protest and notice of protest,
dishonor and nonpayment of this Note, and expressly agrees that this Note, or
any payment under it, may be extended and any security may be accepted, released
or substituted by the holder from time to time without in any way affecting the
liability of Borrower.

         This Note is issued pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated as of May 29,

entire principal unpaid balance and accrued interest shall immediately become
due and payable without diligence, demand, presentment, protest or notice of any

constitute an event of default (each an "Event of Default") under this Note: (1)
Borrower fails to pay any portion of the Loan under this Note, whether of
principal or interest (including any interest which, but for the provisions of
the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts) when due and payable or
when declared due and payable; or (2) Borrower's material failure to comply with
any of the material provisions, conditions, covenants, or agreements in, or the
material incorrectness of any material representation or warranty contained in,
the Loan Agreement or this Note; provided, however, that no

<PAGE>

Event of Default shall occur under clause (2) unless Lender shall have given
Borrower notice of the default, and allowed Borrower to cure such default within
ten (10) business days of having received such notice. If Borrower fails to cure
the default within said 10-day period, Lender may proceed with its rights and
remedies under this Note.

         Borrower agrees to reimburse the holder of this Note for all costs of
collection or enforcement of this Note including, but not limited to, reasonable
attorneys' fees, incurred by the holder.

         This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws, without regards to the laws as to choice or conflict of laws, of the State
of California.

            Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated

            refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be

            is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

      In addition, for the purpose of avoiding duplication calculating the
outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness for purposes of Section 4.09 of
this Indenture, Indebtedness arising solely by reason of the existence of a Lien
permitted under Section 4.12 of this Indenture to secure other Indebtedness

similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds in the
ordinary course of business, PROVIDED that such obligations are extinguished

to the extent collateralized by cash or Cash Equivalents.

paying agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar and the term
"Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any
Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify
the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this
Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as

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 Company 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 Company 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 the Company or a
Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a
Subsidiary 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

      that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private
      Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance
      with the Securities Act.

      Upon satisfaction of the conditions of any of the subparagraphs in this
      Section 2.06(d)(ii), the Trustee shall cancel the Definitive Notes and
      increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the
      Unrestricted Global Note.

            (iii) UNRESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES TO BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN
         UNRESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES. A Holder of an Unrestricted Definitive Note
         may exchange such Note for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted
         Global Note or transfer such Definitive Notes to a Person who takes
         delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an
         Unrestricted Global Note at any time. Upon receipt of a request for
         such an exchange or transfer, the Trustee shall cancel the applicable
         Unrestricted Definitive Note and increase or cause to be increased the
         aggregate principal amount of one of the Unrestricted Global Notes.

      If any such exchange or transfer from a Definitive Note to a beneficial
interest is effected pursuant to subparagraphs (ii)(B), (ii)(D) or (iii) above
at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Company
shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with
Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted
Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of
Definitive Notes so transferred.

      (e)   TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF DEFINITIVE NOTES FOR DEFINITIVE NOTES. Upon
request by a Holder of Definitive Notes and such Holder's compliance with the
provisions of this Section 2.06(e), the Registrar shall register the transfer or
exchange of Definitive Notes. Prior to such registration of transfer or
exchange, the requesting Holder shall present or surrender to the Registrar the
Definitive Notes duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by such Holder or
by his attorney, duly authorized in writing. In addition, the requesting Holder
shall provide any additional certifications, documents and information, as
applicable, required pursuant to the following provisions of this Section
2.06(e).

            (i)   RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES TO RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES.
         Any Restricted Definitive Note may be transferred to and registered in
         the name of Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a

                  (A) if the transfer will be made pursuant to Rule 144A under
            the Securities Act, then the transferor must deliver a certificate
            in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in
            item (1) thereof;

                  (B) if the transfer will be made pursuant to Rule 903 or Rule

            Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof;
            and

                  (C) if the transfer will be made pursuant to any other

            then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of
            Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications, certificates and
            Opinion of Counsel required by item (3) thereof, if applicable.

            (ii)  RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES TO UNRESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES.
         Any Restricted Definitive Note may be exchanged by the Holder thereof
         for an Unrestricted Definitive Note

                                       38
<PAGE>

         or transferred to a Person or Persons who take delivery thereof in the
         form of an Unrestricted Definitive Note if:

                  (A) such exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to the
            Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement
            and the Holder, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in
            the case of a transfer, certifies in the applicable Letter of
            Transmittal that it is not (1) a broker-dealer, (2) a Person
            participating in the distribution of the Exchange Notes or (3) a
            Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144) of the Company;

            Registration Statement in accordance with the Registration Rights
            Agreement;

                  (C) any such transfer is effected by a Participating
            Broker-Dealer pursuant to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
            in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement; or

                  (D) the Registrar receives the following:

                      (1) if the Holder of such Restricted Definitive Notes
                proposes to exchange such Notes for an Unrestricted Definitive
                Note, a certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit C
                hereto, including the certifications in item (1)(d) thereof; or

                      (2) if the Holder of such Restricted Definitive Notes
                proposes to transfer such Notes to a Person who shall take
                delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Note,
                a certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit B hereto,
                including the certifications in item (4) thereof;

      and, in each such case set forth in this subparagraph (D), if the
      Registrar so requests, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable
      to the Company to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in
      compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer
      contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer
      required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act.

            (iii) UNRESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES TO UNRESTRICTED DEFINITIVE
         NOTES. A Holder of Unrestricted Definitive Notes may transfer such
         Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an
         Unrestricted Definitive Note. Upon receipt of a request to register
         such a transfer, the Registrar shall register the Unrestricted
         Definitive Notes pursuant to the instructions from the Holder thereof.

      (f)   EXCHANGE OFFER. Upon the occurrence of the Exchange Offer in
accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall issue and,

Trustee shall authenticate (i) one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an

interests in the Restricted Global Notes tendered for acceptance by Persons that
certify in the applicable Letters of Transmittal that (x) they are not
broker-dealers, (y) they are not participating in a distribution of the Exchange
Notes and (z) they are not affiliates (as defined in Rule 144) of the Company,
and accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer and (ii) Definitive Notes in an

                                       39
<PAGE>

issuance of such Notes, the Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal amount
of the applicable Restricted Global Notes to be reduced accordingly, and the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the
Persons designated by the Holders of Definitive Notes so accepted Definitive
Notes in the appropriate principal amount.

      (g)   LEGENDS. The following legends shall appear on the face of all
Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued under this Indenture unless
specifically stated otherwise in the applicable provisions of this Indenture.

            (i)   PRIVATE PLACEMENT LEGEND.

      AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS "OFFSHORE TRANSACTION" AND "UNITED STATES" HAVE
      THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY RULE 902 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE
      SECURITIES ACT. THE INDENTURE CONTAINS A PROVISION REQUIRING THE TRUSTEE
      TO REFUSE TO REGISTER ANY TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE IN VIOLATION OF THE
      FOREGOING."

                  (B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Global Note or
            Definitive Note issued pursuant to subparagraphs (b)(iv), (c)(iii),
            c(iv), (d)(ii), (d)(iii), (e)(ii), (e)(iii) or (f) to this Section
            2.06 (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution
            thereof) shall not bear the Private Placement Legend.

            (ii)  GLOBAL NOTE LEGEND. Each Global Note shall bear a legend in
         substantially the following form:

         "THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE
         INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE
         BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY
         PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE

         THE COMPANY."

            (iii) REGULATION S TEMPORARY GLOBAL NOTE LEGEND. The Regulation S
         Temporary Global Note shall bear a legend in substantially the
         following form:

         "THE RIGHTS ATTACHING TO THIS REGULATION S TEMPORARY GLOBAL NOTE, AND
         THE CONDITIONS AND PROCEDURES GOVERNING ITS EXCHANGE FOR CERTIFICATED
         NOTES, ARE AS SPECIFIED IN THE INDENTURE (AS DEFINED HEREIN). NEITHER
         THE HOLDER NOR THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF THIS REGULATION S TEMPORARY
         GLOBAL NOTE SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE PAYMENT OF INTEREST HEREON."

      (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
cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be

                                       41
<PAGE>

returned to or retained and cancelled 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
         Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes
         and Definitive Notes upon the Company's 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 Company may require
         payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar
         governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any
         such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon
         exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.14 and
         9.05 hereof).

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

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

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

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

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

                                       42
<PAGE>

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

SECTION 2.07      REPLACEMENT NOTES.

      If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Note, the Company 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 Company, an indemnity
bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the
Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any
authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is
replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note.

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

SECTION 2.08      OUTSTANDING NOTES.

      The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the
Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for
cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the
Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this
Section as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note
does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the
Company holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of
the Company shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07
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 the Company, a Subsidiary 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 the
Company, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or
under direct or indirect common control with the Company, shall be considered as
though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the
Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent,
only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

SECTION 2.10      TEMPORARY NOTES.

      Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company
may prepare and 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 Company

                                       43
<PAGE>

considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the
Trustee shall, as soon as practicable upon receipt of the written order of the
Company signed by an Officer of the Company, authenticate definitive Notes in
exchange for temporary Notes.

      Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of
this Indenture.

SECTION 2.11      CANCELLATION.

      The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.
The Registrar 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
cancelled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange
Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered
to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has
paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 2.12      DEFAULTED INTEREST.

      If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it 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 Company 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 Company 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 Company (or, upon
the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense
of the Company) 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 3.01      NOTICES TO TRUSTEE.

      If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption
provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 30
days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, 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 at any time, selection of
Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee 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 by another method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate;
PROVIDED that no Notes of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.

                                       44
<PAGE>

      The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of
Notes selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or 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, notices of redemption
shall be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before
the redemption date to each Holder of Notes 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;

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

      (g)   the 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 Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption
in the Company's name and at its expense; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company
shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days 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.

SECTION 3.05      DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

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

      If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on
and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or
the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after
an Interest Record Date but on or prior to the related interest payment date,
then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name
such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any
Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption
because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph,
interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until
such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest and Liquidated
Damages, if any, not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate
provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

SECTION 3.06      NOTES REDEEMED IN PART.

      Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue
and, upon the Company's written request, the Trustee shall authenticate for the
Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the
unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

SECTION 3.07      OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

      (a)   Except as provided below, the Notes will not be redeemable at the
Company's option prior to March 15, 2006. Thereafter, the Notes will be subject
to redemption at any time at the option of the Company, in whole or in part,

prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, thereon to the
applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning
on March 15 of the years indicated below:

                Notes from time to time originally issued under this Indenture
                remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of the
                redemption; and

                within 60 days of the date of the closing of any such Equity
                Offering.

      At any time prior to March 15, 2006, the Company may also redeem all or a

30 nor more than 60 days prior notice (but in no event may any such redemption

by first class mail to each Holder's registered address, at a redemption price
equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium as of,
and accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of
redemption (the "Redemption Date").

      (b)   Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant
to the provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

SECTION 3.08      MANDATORY REDEMPTION.

      The Company is not required to make mandatory redemption of, 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 Company shall be
required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase Notes (a "ASSET SALE
OFFER"), it 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 Company 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 Company 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
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;

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

                                       47
<PAGE>

      (d)   that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note
accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrete or
accrue interest after the 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 the Company, a depositary, if appointed by
the Company, 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 the
Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not
later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile
transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal
amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such
Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;

      (h)   that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by
Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Company shall select the Notes to be
purchased on a PRO RATA basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed
appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, or
integral multiples thereof, shall be purchased); 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 Company 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 Company in accordance with the
terms of this Section 3.09. The Company, 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
Company for purchase, and the Company shall promptly issue a new Note, and the
Trustee, upon written request from the Company 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 Company to the Holder thereof. The Company
shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase
Date.

      Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09, any purchase
pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

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

forma basis after giving effect to such Restricted Payment.

      The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an
Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. For
purposes of making that designation, all outstanding Investments by the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid in cash or Cash
Equivalents) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted
Payments at the time of that designation and will reduce the amount available
for Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of this Section 4.07. All such
outstanding Investments will be deemed to constitute Restricted Investments in
an amount equal to the greater of (i) the net book value of those Investments at
the time of that designation and (ii) the fair market value of those Investments
at the time of that designation. Such designation will only be permitted if that
Restricted Investment would be permitted at that time and if that Restricted
Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

      The amount of (i) all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the
fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or
securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment
and (ii) Qualified Proceeds (other than cash) shall be the fair market value on
the date of receipt thereof by the Company of such Qualified Proceeds. The fair
market value of any non-cash Restricted Payment shall be determined by the Board
of Directors whose resolution with respect thereto shall be delivered to the
Trustee. No later than 30 days after making any Restricted Payment, the Company
shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that the
Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the
calculations required by this Section 4.07 were computed.

SECTION 4.08      DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING
                  SUBSIDIARIES.

      The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted

      (b)   the New Credit Facilities as in effect as of the date of this

      (e)   any agreement or instrument of a Person acquired by the Company or

(except to the extent created in contemplation of such acquisition), which
encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or
assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the
Person, so acquired; PROVIDED that, in the case of Indebtedness, that
Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred;

      (f)   customary non-assignment provisions in leases, licenses or
contracts;

      (g)   Purchase Money Indebtedness and Capital Lease Obligations that

customary restrictions with respect to a Subsidiary pursuant to an agreement
that has been entered into for the sale or disposition of Capital Stock or

      (i)   Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; PROVIDED that the restrictions
contained in the agreements governing that Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness
are, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, not materially less
favorable, taken as a whole, to the Holders of the Notes than those contained in
the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

      (j)   secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to
Sections 4.09 and 4.12 hereof that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of
the assets securing that Indebtedness;

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

      (l)   other Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries
permitted to be incurred subsequent to the date hereof pursuant to the
provisions of Section 4.09 hereof; and

                                       56

      (m)   customary provisions in joint venture agreements and other similar
agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business.

SECTION 4.09      INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK.

      (a)   The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted

Indebtedness);

      (b)   the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, issue any shares of Disqualified Stock; and

      (c)   the Company shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to

PROVIDED that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness,
including Acquired Indebtedness, or issue shares of Disqualified Stock if the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company's most recently ended four full
fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available
immediately preceding the date on which that additional Indebtedness is incurred
or that Disqualified Stock or preferred stock is issued would have been at least
2.0 to 1, determined on a consolidated pro forma basis, including, but not
limited to, a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom, as if the
additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or the Disqualified Stock had been
issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of that four-quarter period.

      The provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 4.09 will not apply
to the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively,
"PERMITTED INDEBTEDNESS"):

         amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and
         those Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) then classified as having
         been incurred in reliance upon this clause (i) that remains outstanding
         under the New Credit Facilities and the Foreign Credit Facilities after
         giving effect to that incurrence does not exceed an amount equal to
         $760.0 million less any amounts borrowed under clause (xii) below and
         an amount not to exceed $25.0 million of additional foreign borrowings;

            (ii)  the incurrence by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries

         Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Purchase Money
         Indebtedness, Capital Expenditure Indebtedness, Capital Lease
         Obligations, including acquisitions of Capital Stock of a Person that
         becomes a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent of the fair market value
         of the property, plant or equipment so acquired (and refinancings
         thereof), in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as

                                       57
<PAGE>

         applicable) not to exceed the greater of (a) $30.0 million outstanding
         after giving effect to that incurrence or (b) 10.0% of Consolidated Net
         Tangible Assets at the time of incurrence;

            (v)   Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or any
         Restricted Subsidiary providing for indemnification, adjustment of
         purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or
         assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or a
         Subsidiary, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any
         Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or
         Restricted Subsidiary for the purpose of financing that acquisition;
         PROVIDED that (A) that Indebtedness is not reflected on the balance
         sheet of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (contingent
         obligations referred to in a footnote or footnotes to financial
         statements and not otherwise reflected on the balance sheet will not be
         deemed to be reflected on that balance sheet for purposes of this
         clause (A)) and (B) the maximum assumable liability in respect of that
         Indebtedness shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds including
         non-cash proceeds (the fair market value of those non-cash proceeds
         being measured at the time received and without giving effect to any
         subsequent changes in value) actually received by the Company and/or
         that Restricted Subsidiary in connection with that disposition;

            (vi)  the incurrence by the Company 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;

            (vii) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted

         preferred stock of a Restricted Subsidiary between or among the Company
         and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; PROVIDED that (i) if the
         Company is the obligor on that Indebtedness, that Indebtedness is
         expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all
         Obligations with respect to the Notes; and (ii)(A) any subsequent
         issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such
         Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock being held by a Person other than
         the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof and (B) any sale or
         other transfer of any such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock to a
         Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
         thereof shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of
         such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock by the Company or such
         Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by
         this clause (vii);

            (viii) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted

            (ix)  the guarantee by the Company or any of its Restricted
         Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
         of the Company that was permitted to be incurred by another provision
         of this Section 4.09;

            (x)   obligations in respect of performance and surety bonds and
         completion guarantees (including related letters of credit) provided by
         the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of
         business;

            (xi)  the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
         Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or
         preferred stock of a Restricted Subsidiary in an aggregate face amount
         or principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) outstanding
         after giving effect to that incurrence, including all Permitted
         Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund,

                                       58
<PAGE>

         refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause
         (xi), not to exceed $40.0 million.

            (xii) Indebtedness of Foreign Subsidiaries (which may be incurred
         under the New Credit Facilities or otherwise) (A) in an aggregate
         principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the sum of
         (a) 85% of the net book value of the accounts receivable of such
         Foreign Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP and (b) 50% of the net
         book value of the inventory of such Foreign Subsidiaries in accordance
         with GAAP (provided that the calculation under this clause (A) shall
         exclude the net book value of accounts receivable and inventory sold to
         or financed through any Accounts Receivable Subsidiary) or (B)
         representing guarantees of Indebtedness of another Foreign Subsidiary
         incurred pursuant to subclause (A) of this clause (xii);

            (xiii) unsecured Indebtedness incurred by the Company to former
         employees in connection with the purchase or redemption of Equity
         Interests of the Company not to exceed in the aggregate $10.0 million;
         and

            (xiv) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary incurred and
         outstanding on the date such Restricted Subsidiary was acquired by the
         Company in a principal amount that, when taken together with the
         principal amount of all other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this
         clause (xiv), does not exceed $40.0 million; PROVIDED that such
         Indebtedness was incurred by such Subsidiary prior to such acquisition
         by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries and was not incurred in
         connection with, or contemplation of, such acquisition by the Company
         or one of its Subsidiaries.

      For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the
event that an item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of
Subsidiaries meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted
Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xiv) above or is entitled to be
incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 4.09, the Company
shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness in any manner
that complies with this Section 4.09 and such item of Indebtedness or
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of Subsidiaries will be treated as having
been incurred pursuant to only one of those clauses or pursuant to the first
paragraph hereof of this Section 4.09. In addition, the Company may, at any
time, change the classification of an item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock
or preferred stock of Subsidiaries (or any portion thereof) to any other clause
or to the first paragraph hereof; PROVIDED that the Company would be permitted
to incur such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of
Subsidiaries (or such portion thereof) pursuant to such other clause or the
first paragraph hereof of this Section 4.09, as the case may be, at the time of
reclassification. Accrual of interest and dividends, accretion or amortization
of original issue discount and changes to amounts outstanding under Hedging
Agreements solely as a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates
or interest rates or by reason of fees, indemnities and compensation payable
thereunder, will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes
of this Section 4.09.

      All Indebtedness under the New Credit Facilities and the Foreign Credit
Facilities outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and
authenticated under this Indenture shall be deemed to have been incurred on such
date in reliance on the first paragraph of this Section 4.09.

SECTION 4.10      ASSET SALES.

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

                                       59
<PAGE>

      (a)   the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be,
receives consideration at the time of that Asset Sale at least equal to the fair
market value, including the value of non-cash assets (evidenced by a resolution
of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers' Certificate delivered to the
Trustee), of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed
of; and

      (b)   at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of (i) cash or Cash Equivalents or
(ii) property or assets that are used or useful in a Permitted Business, or the
Capital Stock of any Person engaged in a Permitted Business if, as a result of
the acquisition by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof, such Person
becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;

      for the purposes of this provision, each of the following shall be deemed
to cash:

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

      (y) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or
the Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted within 180 days
of their receipt by the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash
Equivalents but only to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received; and

      (z) any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries in that Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market
value (as determined by the Board of Directors), taken together with all other
Designated Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (z) that is at
that time outstanding, not to exceed 15% of Total Assets at the time of the
receipt of that Designated Noncash Consideration, with the fair market value of
each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time
received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value, shall be
deemed to be cash for purposes of this Section 4.10; PROVIDED that, with respect
to any Designated Noncash Consideration in excess of $50.0 million, the Board of
Directors' determination of fair market value of such Designated Noncash
Consideration must be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an
accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing; and
PROVIDED FURTHER that the 75% limitation referred to in clause (b) above will
not apply to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the
consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the foregoing
proviso, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been
had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

      Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale,
the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall apply such
Net Proceeds, at its option (or to the extent the Company is required to apply
such Net Proceeds pursuant to the terms of the New Credit Facilities):

      (a)   to repay or purchase Senior Indebtedness of the Company or any
Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be; or

      (b)(i) in an investment in property, the making of a capital expenditure
or the acquisition of assets that are used or useful in a Permitted Business; or
(ii) in the acquisition of Capital Stock of any Person primarily engaged in a
Permitted Business if (x) as a result of the acquisition by the Company or any

                                       60
<PAGE>

Restricted Subsidiary thereof, that Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; or
(y) the Investment in that Capital Stock is permitted by clause (14) of the
definition of Permitted Investments; or

      (c)   apply the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale or commence an offer or
otherwise become obligated to repay Pari Passu Indebtedness (without regard to
maturity) not exceeding Pari Passu Indebtedness Pro Rata Share; or

      (d)   to purchase with up to 50% of such Net Proceeds, prior to the second
anniversary of this Indenture, of not more than $60.0 million aggregate original
face amount of the Seller Note at a purchase price not exceeding the accreted
value at the date of purchase.

      Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may
temporarily reduce Indebtedness or otherwise invest those 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 first sentence of this paragraph will be deemed to constitute
"EXCESS PROCEEDS." When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0
million, the Company will be required to make an Asset Sale Offer to purchase
the maximum principal amount of 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, if any,
thereon to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in
this Indenture. To the extent that any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation
of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use such Excess Proceeds for any purpose
not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of
Notes surrendered by Holders thereof in connection with an Asset Sale Offer
exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be
purchased as set forth under Sections 3.02 and 3.03 hereof. Upon completion of
such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

      The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the
Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the
extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the
repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the
provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of
this Indenture relating to such Asset Sale Offer, the Company will comply with
the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof.

SECTION 4.11      TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

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

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

      (b)   the Company delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate
Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate
consideration in excess of $7.5 million, either (i) a resolution of the Board of
Directors set forth in an Officers' Certificate certifying that the relevant
Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (a) above and that such Affiliate
Transaction has been approved by a

                                       61
<PAGE>

majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors; or (ii) an
opinion as to the fairness to the Holders of that Affiliate Transaction from a
financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking
firm of national standing.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following items shall not be deemed to
be Affiliate Transactions:

      (a)   customary directors' fees, indemnification or similar arrangements
or any employment agreement, consulting fee, employee salaries, bonuses or other
compensation plan or arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (including ordinary
course loans to officers, directors and employees for travel, entertainment,
moving and other relocation expenses not to exceed (i) $5.0 million outstanding
in the aggregate at any time and (ii) $2.0 million to any one employee);

      (b)   transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted
Subsidiaries;

      (c)   payments of customary fees by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to the Principals and their Affiliates made for any financial
advisory, financing, underwriting or placement services or in respect of other
investment banking activities, including, without limitation, in connection with
acquisitions or divestitures which are approved by a majority of the Board of
Directors in good faith;

      (d)   any agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture or any
amendment thereto (so long as that amendment is not disadvantageous to the
Holders of the Notes in any material respect) or any transaction contemplated
thereby;

      (e)   payments and transactions in connection with the Transactions,
including any purchase price adjustment or any other payments made pursuant to
the Transaction Agreements or the financial advisory agreements with Credit
Suisse First Boston Corporation or any of its affiliates, and the Transaction
Financing, the New Credit Facilities (including commitment, syndication and
arrangement fees payable thereunder) and the Offering (including underwriting
discounts and commissions in connection therewith) and the application of the
proceeds thereof, and the payment of the fees and expenses with respect thereto;

      (f)   Restricted Payments that are permitted by Section 4.07 hereof and
any Permitted Investments;

      (g)   sales of accounts receivable, or participations therein, in
connection with any Receivables Facility;

      (h)   the issue and sale by the Company to its stockholders of Equity
Interests other than Disqualified Stock;

      (i)   the pledge of Equity Interests of Unrestricted Subsidiaries to
support the Indebtedness thereof; and

      (j)   any transaction not constituting a Restricted Investment in the
ordinary course of business or approved by a majority of the disinterested
directors, between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Affiliate of
the Company controlled by the Company that is a joint venture or similar entity
primarily engaged in a Permitted Business.

SECTION 4.12      LIENS.

      The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to
exist any Lien, other than a Permitted Lien, that secures obligations under any
Pari Passu Indebtedness or subordinated Indebtedness of the Company on any asset
or property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, or any income or profits therefrom or assign or convey
any right to receive income therefrom, unless the Notes are equally and ratably
secured with the obligations so secured until such time as those obligations are
no longer secured by a Lien; PROVIDED that, in any case involving a Lien
securing subordinated Indebtedness of the Company, that Lien is subordinated to
the Lien securing the Notes to the same extent that that subordinated
Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes.

SECTION 4.13      CORPORATE EXISTENCE.

      Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) the
corporate, partnership or other existence of itself and each of its
Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the
same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Subsidiary and
(ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company
and its Subsidiaries; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required
to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership
or other existence of itself and 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 Company 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 4.14      OFFER TO REPURCHASE UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL.

      (a)   Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes
will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal
to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder's Notes validly
tendered pursuant to the offer described below (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL OFFER")
at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any,
thereon to the date of repurchase (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL PAYMENT"). Within 90
days following any Change of Control (or at the Company's option prior to such
Change of Control), the Company will, or will cause the Trustee to, mail a
notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute
the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in
that notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60
days from the date that notice is mailed (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL PAYMENT DATE"),
pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in that
notice; PROVIDED, that any Change of Control Offer made prior to any date of
such Change of Control shall be made only in the reasonable anticipation of such
Change of Control; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the Company shall not be required
to purchase any Notes tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer if such
Change of Control does not occur. The Company will 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 the Notes as a result of a Change of Control.
To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict
with the provisions of this Indenture relating to a Change of Control Offer, the
Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and
shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture
by virtue thereof.

      (b)   On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the
extent lawful:

                                       63
<PAGE>

            (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly
      tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

            (ii) 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

            (iii) 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
      Company.

      The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes so tendered
the Change of Control Payment for that Holder's Notes, and the Trustee will
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 thereof.

      Prior to complying with the provisions of this Section 4.14, but in any
event within 90 days following a Change of Control, the Company will either
repay all outstanding Senior Indebtedness or obtain the requisite consents, if
any, under all agreements governing outstanding Senior Indebtedness to permit
the repurchase of Notes required by this Section 4.14. The Company shall
publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as
practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

      (c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.14, the
Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of
Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the
times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this
Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and
purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of
Control Offer.

SECTION 4.15      NO SENIOR SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.09 hereof, (i) the Company
shall not incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of
payment to any Senior Indebtedness and senior in right of payment to the Notes,
and (ii) no Guarantor will incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior
in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness and senior in right of payment to
that Guarantor's Guarantee.

SECTION 4.16      LIMITATION ON SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS.

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

      (a)   the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, could
have (i) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable
Indebtedness relating to such sale and leaseback transaction pursuant to the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of Section
4.09 hereof; and (ii) incurred a Lien to secure that Indebtedness pursuant to
Section 4.12 hereof;

      (b)   the gross cash proceeds of such sale and leaseback transaction are
at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors and set forth in an Officers' Certificate delivered to the
Trustee and, with respect to any sale and leaseback transactions involving a
fair market value in excess of $50.0 million, the Board of Directors'
determination of fair market value must be based

                                       64
<PAGE>

on an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment
banking firm of national standing) of the property that is the subject of that
sale and leaseback transaction; and

      (c)   the transfer of assets in that sale and leaseback transaction is
permitted by, and the Company applies the proceeds of such transaction in
compliance with, Section 4.10 hereof.

SECTION 4.17      ADDITIONAL NOTE GUARANTEES.

      If any Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is a
Domestic Subsidiary guarantees any Indebtedness under the New Credit Facilities,
then such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor and execute a
supplemental indenture and deliver an Opinion of Counsel, in accordance with the
terms of this Indenture.

                                    ARTICLE 5

                                   SUCCESSORS

SECTION 5.01      MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, OR SALE OF ASSETS.

      The Company shall not consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not
the Company is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, convey or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one
or more related transactions to another Person unless (a) the Company is the
surviving corporation or the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to which that sale,
assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made is a
corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state
thereof or the District of Columbia; (b) the Person formed by or surviving any
such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or the Person to which
that sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been
made assumes all the obligations of the Company under the Registration Rights
Agreement, the Notes and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture in
a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; (c) immediately after that
transaction no Default or Event of Default exists; and (d) the Company or the
Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than
the Company), or to which that sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other
disposition shall have been made (i) will, after giving pro forma effect to such
transaction as if that transaction had occurred at the beginning of the
applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of
additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set
forth in the first paragraph of Section 4.09 hereof or (ii) would, together with
its Restricted Subsidiaries, have a higher Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
immediately after that transaction (after giving pro forma effect thereto as if
that transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter
period) than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries immediately prior to that transaction. The foregoing clause (d)
will not prohibit (i) a merger between the Company and a Wholly Owned Subsidiary
of Parent created for the purpose of holding the Capital Stock of the Company;
(ii) a merger between the Company and a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary; or
(iii) a merger between the Company and an Affiliate incorporated solely for the
purpose of reincorporating the Company in another State of the United States so
long as, in each case, the amount of Indebtedness of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby. The Company will not lease all
or substantially all of its assets to any Person.

SECTION 5.02      SUCCESSOR CORPORATION SUBSTITUTED.

      Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer,
lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof, the successor corporation
formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or

                                       65
<PAGE>

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 "Company" shall
refer instead to the successor corporation and not to the Company), and may
exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture with the same
effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the predecessor Company shall not be relieved from the
obligation to pay the principal of and interest or Liquidated Damages, if any,
on the Notes except in the case of a sale of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets that meets the requirements of Section 5.01 hereof.

Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries), whether that Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or
is created after the date of this Indenture, which default (i) is caused by a
failure to pay Indebtedness at its stated final maturity (after giving effect to
any applicable grace period provided in such Indebtedness) (a "PAYMENT DEFAULT")
or (ii) results in the acceleration of that Indebtedness prior to its stated
final maturity and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness,

<PAGE>

Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or

         of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a
         Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that,
         taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or

            (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its
         Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group
         of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a
         Significant Subsidiary;

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

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 the Company, any
Restricted Subsidiaries 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 Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee to declare all the
Notes to be due and payable immediately. However, so long as any Indebtedness
permitted to be incurred pursuant to the New Credit Facilities shall be
outstanding, such acceleration shall not be effective until the earlier of (i)
an acceleration under any such Indebtedness under the New Credit Facilities; or
(ii) five Business Days after receipt by the Company and the administrative
agent under the New Credit Facilities of written notice of such acceleration.
Except as stated in the prior sentence, 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 the Company, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a

                                       67
<PAGE>

Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a
whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will
become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders of the Notes
may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this
Indenture. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the
Holders rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not
conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default
(except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium or Liquidated Damages, if
any, that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or
waived; PROVIDED that, in the event of a declaration of acceleration of the
Notes because an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as a result of
the acceleration of any Indebtedness described in clause (e) of Section 6.01
hereof, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically
annulled if the holders of any Indebtedness described in clause (e) of Section
6.01 hereof have rescinded the declaration of acceleration in respect of such
Indebtedness within 30 days of the date of such declaration and if (i) the
annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment
or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and (ii) all existing Events of
Default, except non-payment of principal or interest on the Notes that became
due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived.

      If an Event of Default occurs on or after March 15, 2006 by reason of any
willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of the Company
with the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the Company would
have had to pay if the Company 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 March 15, 2006 by reason of any willful
action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of the Company 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 March 15 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):

      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 and Liquidated Damages, if any, 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.

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, 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 Company for the whole amount of
principal of, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, and interest remaining
unpaid on the Notes and interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, 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
Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company
(or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall
be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other
property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to
the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to
it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under
Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, 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 6, it shall pay
out the money in the following order:

liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and
expenses of collection;

      SECOND: to holders of Senior Indebtedness to the extent required by
Article 10 or Section 11.02 hereof;

      THIRD: to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for

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

SECTION 6.11      UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

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

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

         this Section 7.01;

            (ii)  the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made

            (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

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

Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
exchange.

SECTION 7.07      COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

      The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable
compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The

trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly
upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or
made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall

agents and counsel.

      The Company and any Guarantor shall jointly and severally indemnify the

<PAGE>

negligence or bad faith. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any

Default specified in Section 6.01(g) or (h) hereof occurs, the expenses and the
compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and
counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law.

      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

of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a
successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company, or
the Holders of Notes 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.

                                       74
<PAGE>

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

      A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment
to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation or
removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor
Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this

Holders of the Notes. 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 Company's obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the
benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.09      SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER, ETC.

      There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or
of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million
as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

      This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the 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 COMPANY.

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

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

SECTION 8.02      LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE.

      Upon the Company's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option

<PAGE>

outstanding Notes, Guarantees and this Indenture on the date the conditions set
forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "LEGAL DEFEASANCE"). For this purpose,
Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and
discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes,
Guarantees and this Indenture, which Notes 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, Guarantees and this
Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company,
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the
following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or
discharged hereunder:

      (a)   the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in
respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Liquidated

SECTION 8.03      COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

      Upon the Company's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and the Guarantors shall, subject
to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be
released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07,
4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16 and 4.17 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 Company 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 Company's exercise
under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof,
subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof,
Sections 6.01(c) through 6.01(f) 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 and Note Guarantees:

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

      (b)   in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee confirming that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been
published by, the Internal Revenue Service; a ruling or (ii) 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, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the
Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for
federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be
subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the
same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not
occurred;

      (c)   in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions,
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 that deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting
from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) or, insofar as Events
of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in
the period ending on the 123rd day after the date of deposit;

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

      (f)   the Company must have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, after the
123rd day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the
effect of Section 547 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any analogous New
York State law provision or any other applicable federal or New York bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors' rights
generally;

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

      (h)   the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and
an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion may be subject to customary assumptions and

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 the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to
become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest and
Liquidated Damages, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by law.

      The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable 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 Company from time to time upon the request of the
Company 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.

SECTION 8.06      REPAYMENT TO COMPANY.

      Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by
the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest or Liquidated Damages, if any, on any Note and remaining unclaimed for
two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest or Liquidated
Damages, if any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its
request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust;
and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as a secured creditor, look only
to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such
Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company
as trustees thereof, shall thereupon cease; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee
or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at
the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the NEW YORK TIMES and
THE WALL STREET JOURNAL (national edition), notice that such 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 Company.

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 Company's obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and
the Note Guarantees 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 Company

                                       78
<PAGE>

makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest or Liquidated
Damages, if any, on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                    ARTICLE 9

                        AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

SECTION 9.01      WITHOUT CONSENT OF HOLDERS OF NOTES.

      Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Company, the
Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Note
Guarantees or the Notes 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 the
Holder;

      (c)   to provide for the assumption of the Company's obligations to the
Holders of the Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company by a successor to the Company
pursuant to Article 5 hereof or to provide for the assumption of any Guarantor's
obligations under its Note Guarantee in the case of a merger or consolidation of
the Guarantor pursuant to Article 11 hereof;

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

      (e)   to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or
maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

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

      Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board
of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section
7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company 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 Company, the Guarantors
and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including Section 3.09,
4.10 and 4.14 hereof), the Note Guarantees and the Notes may be amended or
supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal
amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding voting
as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer
or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04
and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default
or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest or

                                       79
<PAGE>

Liquidated Damages, if any, 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). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any (i) amendment to or
waiver of Section 4.14 hereof, and (ii) amendment to Article 10 herein will
require the consent of the Holders of at least two-thirds in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding if such amendment would materially
adversely affect the rights of Holders 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 Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board
of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the
Trustee of the consent of 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 Company and the Guarantors 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 9.02 becomes
effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a
notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of
the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in
any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental
indenture or waiver. 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 Company 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 the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (other than
Section 4.14 hereof) in a manner adverse to the Holder;

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

      (d)   waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of
or premium, if any, or interest or Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes
(except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes 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;

                                       80
<PAGE>

      (g)   waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than
Section 4.14 hereof);

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

      (i)   make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions.

SECTION 9.03      COMPLIANCE WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

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

SECTION 9.04      REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS.

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

SECTION 9.05      NOTATION ON OR EXCHANGE OF NOTES.

      The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment,
supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company 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 Company
may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until its 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
11.04 hereof, an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that
the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture.

                                   ARTICLE 10

                                  SUBORDINATION

SECTION 10.01     AGREEMENT TO SUBORDINATE.

      The Company agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the
payment of Subordinated Note Obligations are subordinated in right of payment,
to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Article 10, to the prior
payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all Senior Indebtedness,

                                       81
<PAGE>

whether outstanding on the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred and
that the subordination is for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness.
The provisions of this Article 10 shall constitute a continuing offer to all
Persons that, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue
to hold Senior Indebtedness, and they or each of them may enforce the rights of
holders of Senior Indebtedness hereunder, subject to the terms and provisions
hereof.

SECTION 10.02     LIQUIDATION; DISSOLUTION; BANKRUPTCY.

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

      (1) the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive
      payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents of all Obligations due in
      respect of such Senior Indebtedness, including interest after the
      commencement of any such proceeding at the rate specified in the
      applicable Senior Indebtedness, before the Holders of Notes will be
      entitled to receive any payment with respect to the Subordinated Note
      Obligations, and

      (2) until all Obligations with respect to Senior Indebtedness are paid in
      full in cash or Cash Equivalents, any distribution to which the Holders of
      Notes would be entitled shall be made to the holders of Senior
      Indebtedness.

      However, Holders of Notes may receive and retain Permitted Junior
Securities and payments made from the trust described in Article 8 hereof.

      A "distribution" or "payment" may consist of a distribution, payment or
other transfer of assets by or on behalf of the Company (including, without
limitation, a redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of the Notes) from any
source, of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property,
by set-off or otherwise.

SECTION 10.03     DEFAULT ON DESIGNATED SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS.

      The Company also may not make any payment upon or in respect of the
Subordinated Note Obligations, except in Permitted Junior Securities or from the
trust described in Article 8 hereof until all obligations with respect to Senior
Indebtedness have been paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents if:

      (1) a default in the payment of the principal (including reimbursement
      obligations in respect of letters of credit) of, premium, if any, or
      interest on or commitment, letter of credit or administrative fees
      relating to, Designated Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing
      beyond any applicable period of grace; or

      (2) any other default occurs and is continuing with respect to Designated
      Senior Indebtedness that permits holders of the Designated Senior
      Indebtedness as to which that default relates to accelerate its maturity
      and the Trustee receives a notice of that default (a "PAYMENT BLOCKAGE
      NOTICE") from the Company or the holders of any Designated Senior
      Indebtedness.

      Payments on the Notes may and shall be resumed:

      (1) in the case of a payment default, upon the date on which that default
      is cured or waived; and

                                       82
<PAGE>

      (2) in case of a nonpayment default, the earlier of the date on which that
      nonpayment default is cured or waived or 179 days after the date on which
      the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received, unless the maturity of
      any Designated Senior Indebtedness has been accelerated.

      No new period of payment blockage may be commenced unless and until 360
days 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 that default
shall have been waived or cured for a period of not less than 90 days.

SECTION 10.04     ACCELERATION OF SECURITIES.

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

SECTION 10.05     WHEN DISTRIBUTION MUST BE PAID OVER.

      In the event that the Trustee or any Holder receives any payment of any
Subordinated Note Obligations at a time when the Trustee or such Holder, as
applicable, has actual knowledge that such payment is prohibited by Section
10.03 or 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 Indebtedness as their interests
may appear or their Representative under the indenture or other agreement (if
any) pursuant to which Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their
respective interests may appear, for application to the payment of all
Obligations with respect to Senior Indebtedness 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 Indebtedness.

      With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, 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 Indebtedness 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 Indebtedness, and shall not be liable to any such
holders if the Trustee shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders
or the Company or any other Person money or assets to which any holders of
Senior Indebtedness 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 10.06     NOTICE BY COMPANY.

      The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of any
facts known to the Company 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 Indebtedness as
provided in this Article 10.

SECTION 10.07     SUBROGATION.

      After all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash or Cash Equivalents
and until the Notes are paid in full, Holders of Notes shall be subrogated
(equally and ratably with all other Indebtedness PARI PASSU with the Notes) to
the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable
to Senior Indebtedness to the extent that distributions otherwise payable to the
Holders of Notes have been

                                       83
<PAGE>

applied to the payment of Senior Indebtedness. A distribution made under this
Article 10 to holders of Senior Indebtedness that otherwise would have been made
to Holders of Notes is not, as between the Company and Holders, a payment by the
Company on the Notes.

SECTION 10.08     RELATIVE RIGHTS.

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

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

      (2) affect the relative rights of Holders of Notes and creditors of the
Company other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Indebtedness;
or

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

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

SECTION 10.09     SUBORDINATION MAY NOT BE IMPAIRED BY COMPANY.

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

SECTION 10.10     DISTRIBUTION OR NOTICE TO REPRESENTATIVE.

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

      Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in
this Article 10, the Trustee and the Holders of Notes 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 of Notes
for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such
distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of
the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid
or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article
10.

SECTION 10.11     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 the Company or a

                                       84
<PAGE>

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
Indebtedness with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any
Agent may do the same with like rights.

SECTION 10.12     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 Representative is hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim
for and on behalf of the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 10.13     NO WAIVER OF SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS.

      (a)   No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness
to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be
prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act by any such holder.

      (b)   Without in any way limiting the generality of paragraph (a) of this
Section 10.13, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time
to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or any Holder, without
incurring responsibility to any Holder and without impairing or releasing the
subordination provided in this Article 10 or the obligations hereunder of the
Holders to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the
following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time
of payment of, or renew or alter, any Senior Indebtedness or any instrument
evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness is
outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property
pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any
Person liable in any manner for the collection of Senior Indebtedness; and (iv)
exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against either Company or any
other Person.

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 Indebtedness.

SECTION 10.15     TRUSTEE'S COMPENSATION NOT PREJUDICED.

      Nothing in this Article 10 shall apply to amounts due to the Trustee
pursuant to other Sections of this Indenture.

                                   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

                                       85
<PAGE>

successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this
Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder,
that: (1) 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 Company 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 (2) 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.

      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 Company, 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 the Company, any right to require a
proceeding first against the Company, 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 Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or
other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the
Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this 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, (1) 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 (2) 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. Each Guarantor that makes a payment or
distribution under a guarantee shall be entitled to a contribution from each
other Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the assets of each Guarantor
determined accordance with GAAP. 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 Guarantee of such
Guarantor on the same basis as the Notes are junior and subordinated to Senior
Indebtedness of the Company. 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

                                       86
<PAGE>

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
with respect to subordination.

SECTION 11.03     LIMITATION OF 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 11, result
in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a
fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

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 Treasurer or Secretary.

      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 the Company creates or acquires any new Subsidiaries
subsequent to the date of this Indenture, if required by Section 4.17 hereof,
the Company shall cause such Subsidiaries to execute supplemental indentures to
this Indenture and Note Guarantees in accordance with Section 4.17 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 the Company)
unconditionally assumes all the obligations of such Guarantor, pursuant to a
supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the

                                       87
<PAGE>

Trustee, under the Notes, this Indenture, the Note Guarantees and the
Registration Rights Agreement 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
Guarantees 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 Company 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 the
Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the
property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the
Company or another Guarantor.

SECTION 11.06     RELEASES FOLLOWING SALE OF ASSETS.

      In the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of
the assets of a Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a
sale or other disposition of all of the capital stock of a Guarantor, 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 the Company to the Trustee of an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale or other
disposition was made by the Company 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.

      In the event of the defeasance of the Notes in accordance with the terms
of this Indenture, including without limitation Sections 8.02 and 8.03 hereof,
and in the event of the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a
Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture, then such Guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations
under its 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.

                           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
Company) 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 making of a notice of
redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the
Company 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 of 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 or, or constitute a default under, any
other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which
the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

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

(4) the Company 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, the Company shall deliver an Officer's 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 the Company 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.

                                       89
<PAGE>

      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, the Company'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 Company has made any payment of principal or,
premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its
obligation, the Company 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.

      THIS NOTE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED

                  JURISDICTION AND

               -  AGREES THAT IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THIS NOTE
                  OR AN INTEREST HEREIN IS TRANSFERRED A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO
                  THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND.

      AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS "OFFSHORE TRANSACTION" AND "UNITED STATES" HAVE
      THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY RULE 902 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE
      SECURITIES ACT. THE INDENTURE CONTAINS A PROVISION REQUIRING THE TRUSTEE
      TO REFUSE TO REGISTER ANY TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE IN VIOLATION OF THE
      FOREGOING.

      THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE
      GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE
      BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY
      CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON
      AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.07 OF THE INDENTURE, (II) THIS
      GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION
      2.06(a) OF THE INDENTURE, (III) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE
      TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.11 OF THE INDENTURE AND
      (IV) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY WITH
      THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE COMPANY.

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

      1. INTEREST. PMD Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"),
promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 11% per annum
from September 15, 2001 until maturity and shall pay the Liquidated Damages
payable pursuant to Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred to
below. Interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 11% per year. The
Company will pay interest and Liquidated Damages semi-annually on March 15 and
September 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next
succeeding Business Day (each, an "INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"). Interest on the
Notes 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 an Interest 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; and PROVIDED FURTHER that the first Interest
Payment Date shall be September 15, 2001. The Company shall pay interest
(including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate
that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest
(including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue installments of interest and 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.

                                      A1-3
<PAGE>

      2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company 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 Interest Record Date next
preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are cancelled 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 of the Paying Agent and Registrar. Holders of Notes must surrender
their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect principal payments, and the Company
may pay principal and interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, by check and may
mail checks to a Holder's registered address; PROVIDED that all payments with
respect to Global Notes and Definitive Notes, the Holders of which have given
wire transfer instructions to the Company, will be required to be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders
thereof. 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, Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota,
National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent
and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without
notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such
capacity.

      4. INDENTURE. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of
February 28, 2001 ("INDENTURE"), between the Company, the Guarantors named in a
schedule 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 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 the Company initially limited to $275,000,000 million in
aggregate principal amount. Additional Notes may be issued pursuant to Sections
2.02 and 4.09 of the Indenture and, if issued, will be treated as a single class
for all purposes under the Indenture.

      5.    OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

      (a) Except as provided in subparagraph (b) of this Paragraph 5, the Notes
will not be redeemable at the Company's option prior to March 15, 2006.
Thereafter, the Notes will be subject to redemption at any time at the option of
the Company, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days'
notice, in cash at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal
amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated
Damages, if any, thereon to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during
the twelve-month period beginning on March 15 of the years indicated below:

</TABLE>

      (b)   Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph
5, on or prior to March 15, 2004, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes ever issued under the Indenture in cash at a
redemption price of 111% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and
unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, thereon to the redemption date,
with the net

                                      A1-4
<PAGE>

cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; PROVIDED that at least 65% of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes ever issued under the Indenture remains
outstanding immediately after the occurrence of any such redemption; and
PROVIDED FURTHER that such redemption shall occur within 60 days of the date of
the closing of any such Equity Offering.

      (c)   Any redemption pursuant to this subparagraph 5 shall be made
pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture.

      6.    MANDATORY REDEMPTION. Except as set forth in paragraph 7 below, the
Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect
to the Notes.

      7.    REPURCHASE AT OPTION OF HOLDER.

      (a)   Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes
will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal
to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder's Notes pursuant to
the offer described in Section 4.14 of the Indenture (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL
OFFER") at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal
amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages thereon,
if any, to the date of purchase (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL PAYMENT"). Within 90
days following any Change of Control, the Company will, or will cause the
Trustee to, mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or
transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase
Notes on the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than
30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant
to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice.

      (b)   Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset
Sale, the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall apply
the Net Proceeds, at its option (or to the extent the Company is required to
apply the Net Proceeds pursuant to the terms of the New Credit Facilities), (a)
to repay or purchase Senior Indebtedness of the Company or any Indebtedness of
any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be; or (b)(i) in an investment in
property, the making of a capital expenditure or the acquisition of assets that
are used or useful in a Permitted Business or (ii) in the acquisition of Capital
Stock of any Person primarily engaged in a Permitted Business if (x) as a result
of the acquisition by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof, such
Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or (y) the Investment in that Capital
Stock is permitted by clause (14) of the definition of Permitted Investments; or
(c) apply the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale or commence an offer or otherwise
become obligated to prepay Pari Passu Indebtedness not exceeding the Pari Passu
Indebtedness Pro Rata Share; or (d) apply up to 50% of such Net Proceeds to the
purchase, prior to the second anniversary of the indentures, of not more than
$60.0 million aggregate original face amount of the Seller Note at a purchase
price not exceeding the accreted value at the date of purchase. Pending the
final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce
Indebtedness or otherwise invest those 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 first sentence of this paragraph will be
deemed to constitute "EXCESS PROCEEDS." When the aggregate amount of Excess
Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, the Company will be required to make an offer to
all Holders of Notes (an "ASSET SALE OFFER") to purchase the maximum principal
amount of 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, if any, thereon to the date
of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. To
the extent that any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale
Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise
prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes
surrendered by Holders thereof in connection with an Asset Sale Offer exceeds
the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be
purchased as set forth under Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Indenture. Upon
completion of such offer to purchase, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be
reset at zero. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an

                                      A1-5
<PAGE>

offer to purchase 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 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
Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or
permitted by the Indenture. The Company 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 Company
need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days
before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record
date and the corresponding 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) 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). 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 the Company'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 materially adversely affect the legal rights under the
Indenture of any such Holder, to comply with the requirements of the Commission
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. Each of the following constitutes an "Event
of Default": (a) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or
Liquidated Damages, if any, with respect to, the Notes (whether or not
prohibited by Article 10 of the Indenture); (b) default in payment when due of
the principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes (whether or not prohibited by
Article 10 of the Indenture); (c) failure by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries for 30 days after receipt of notice from the Trustee or
Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes (including Additional
Notes, if any) then outstanding to comply with Sections 4.07, 4.09, 4.10, 4.14
or Article 5 of the Indenture; (d) failure by the Company for 60 days after
notice from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of
the Notes then outstanding to comply with any of its other agreements in this
Indenture or the Notes; (e) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument
under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced
any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or
is created after the date of this Indenture, which

                                      A1-6
<PAGE>

default (i) is caused by a failure to pay Indebtedness at its stated final
maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace period provided in such
Indebtedness) (a "PAYMENT DEFAULT") or (ii) results in the acceleration of such
Indebtedness prior to its stated final maturity and, in each case, the principal
amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other
such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity
of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $25.0 million or more; (f) failure
by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments
aggregating in excess of $25.0 million (net of any amounts with respect to which
a reputable and creditworthy insurance company has acknowledged liability in
writing), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60
days; (g) except as permitted by the Indenture, if 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 behalf of a Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under
its Note Guarantee; and (h) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency as
described in the Indenture.

      If any Event of Default (other than certain events of bankruptcy or
insolvency) occurs and is continuing, Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee to declare all the
Notes to be due and payable immediately. However, so long as any Indebtedness
permitted to be incurred pursuant to the New Credit Facilities shall be
outstanding, such acceleration shall not be effective until the earlier of (i)
an acceleration under any such Indebtedness under the New Credit Facilities; or
(ii) five Business Days after receipt by the Company and the administrative
agent under the New Credit Facilities of written notice of such acceleration.
Except as stated in the prior sentence, upon any such declaration, the Notes
shall become due and payable immediately. 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 of the Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the
Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee
in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders 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.

      13.   SUBORDINATION. The payment of Subordinated Note Obligations will be
subordinated in right of payment, as set forth in the Indenture, to the prior
payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of all Senior Indebtedness, whether
outstanding on the date of the Indenture or thereafter incurred. the Company
agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the payment of
principal of, premium and interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes
is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in
the Indenture, to the prior payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of all
Senior Indebtedness (whether outstanding on the date hereof or thereafter
created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and that the subordination is for the
benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

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

      15.   NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No member, director, officer, employee,
incorporator or stockholder, of the Company or any Guarantor, as such, shall
have any liability for any obligations of the Company and the Guarantors 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.

                  OR AN INTEREST HEREIN IS TRANSFERRED A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO
                  THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND.

      AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS "OFFSHORE TRANSACTION" AND "UNITED STATES" HAVE
      THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY RULE 902 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE
      SECURITIES ACT. THE INDENTURE CONTAINS A PROVISION REQUIRING THE TRUSTEE
      TO REFUSE TO REGISTER ANY TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE IN VIOLATION OF THE
      FOREGOING.

      THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE
      GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE
      BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY

      (IV) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY WITH
      THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE COMPANY.

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

      1. INTEREST. PMD Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"),
promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 11% per annum
from September 15, 2001 until maturity and shall pay the Liquidated Damages
payable pursuant to Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred to
below. Interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 11% per year. The
Company will pay interest and Liquidated Damages semi-annually on March 15 and
September 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next
succeeding Business Day (each, an "INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"). Interest on the
Notes 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 an Interest 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; and PROVIDED FURTHER that the first Interest
Payment Date shall be September 15, 2001. The Company shall pay interest
(including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate
that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest
(including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue installments of interest and 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 this Indenture.

                                      A2-3
<PAGE>

      2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company 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 Interest Record Date next
preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are cancelled 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 of the Paying Agent and Registrar. Holders of Notes must surrender
their Notes to the Paying Agent to collect principal payments, and the Company
may pay principal and interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, by check and may
mail checks to a Holder's registered address; PROVIDED that all payments with
respect to Global Notes and Definitive Notes, the Holders of which have given
wire transfer instructions to the Company, will be required to be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders
thereof. 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, Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota,
National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent
and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without
notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such
capacity.

      4. INDENTURE. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of
February 28, 2001 ("INDENTURE"), between the Company, the Guarantors named in a
Schedule 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 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 the Company initially limited to $275,000,000 in aggregate
principal amount. Additional Notes may be issued pursuant to Sections 2.02 and
4.09 of the Indenture and, if issued, will be treated as a single class for all
purposes under the Indenture.

      5.    OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

      (a)   Except as provided in subparagraph (b) of this Paragraph 5, the
Notes will not be redeemable at the Company's option prior to March 15, 2006.
Thereafter, the Notes will be subject to redemption at any time at the option of

accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, thereon to the
redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings;
PROVIDED that at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes ever
issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence
of any such redemption; and PROVIDED FURTHER that such redemption shall occur
within 60 days of the date of the closing of any such Equity Offering.

      (c)   Any redemption pursuant to this subparagraph 5 shall be made
pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture.

      6.    MANDATORY REDEMPTION. Except as set forth in paragraph 7 below, the
Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect
to the Notes.

      7.    REPURCHASE AT OPTION OF HOLDER.

      (a)   Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes
will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal
to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder's Notes pursuant to
the offer described in Section 4.14 of the Indenture (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL
OFFER") at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal
amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages thereon,
if any, to the date of purchase (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL PAYMENT"). Within 90
days following any Change of Control, the Company will, or will cause the
Trustee to, mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or
transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase
Notes on the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than
30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant
to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice.

      (b)   Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset
Sale, the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall apply
the Net Proceeds, at its option (or to the extent the Company is required to
apply the Net Proceeds pursuant to the terms of the New Credit Facilities), (a)
to repay or purchase Senior Indebtedness of the Company or any Indebtedness of
any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be; or (b)(i) in an investment in
property, the making of a capital expenditure or the acquisition of assets that
are used or useful in a Permitted Business or (ii) in the acquisition of Capital
Stock of any Person primarily engaged in a Permitted Business if (x) as a result
of the acquisition by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof, such
Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or (y) the Investment in that Capital
Stock is permitted by clause (14) of the definition of Permitted Investments; or
(c) apply the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale or commence an offer or otherwise
become obligated to prepay Pari Passu Indebtedness not exceeding the Pari Passu
Indebtedness Pro Rata Share; or (d) apply up to 50% of such Net Proceeds to the
purchase, prior to the second anniversary of the indentures, of not more than
$60.0 million aggregate original face amount of the Seller Note at a purchase
price not exceeding the accreted value at the date of purchase. Pending the
final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce
Indebtedness or otherwise invest those 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 first sentence of this paragraph will be
deemed to constitute "EXCESS PROCEEDS." When the aggregate amount of Excess
Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, the Company will be required to make an offer to
all Holders of Notes (an "ASSET SALE OFFER") to purchase the maximum principal
amount of 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, if any, thereon to the date
of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. To
the extent that any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale
Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise
prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes
surrendered by Holders thereof in connection with an Asset Sale Offer exceeds
the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be

                                      A2-5
<PAGE>

purchased as set forth under Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Indenture. Upon
completion of such offer to purchase, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be

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 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
Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or
permitted by the Indenture. The Company 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 Company
need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days
before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record
date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

part for one or more Global Notes only (i) on or after the termination of the

of certificates (accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel, if applicable) required
by Article 2 of this Indenture. Upon exchange of this Regulation S Temporary
Global Notes 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) 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). 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 the Company'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 materially adversely affect the legal rights under the
Indenture of any such Holder, to comply with the requirements of the Commission
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. Each of the following constitutes an "Event
of Default": (a) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or
Liquidated Damages, if any, with respect to, the Notes (whether or not
prohibited by Article 10 of the Indenture); (b) default in payment when due of
the principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes (whether or not prohibited by
Article 10 of the Indenture); (c)

                                      A2-6
<PAGE>

failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 30 days after
receipt of notice from the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding to
comply with Sections 4.07, 4.09, 4.10, 4.14 or Article 5 of the Indenture; (d)
failure by the Company for 60 days after notice from the Trustee or the Holders
of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to comply with
any of its other agreements in this Indenture or the Notes; (e) default under
any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by
which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by
the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is
guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such
Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this
Indenture, which default (i) is caused by a failure to pay Indebtedness at its
stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace period
provided in such Indebtedness) (a "PAYMENT DEFAULT") or (ii) results in the
acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its stated final maturity and, in
each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the
principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a
Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates
$25.0 million or more; (f) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $25.0 million (net
of any amounts with respect to which a reputable and creditworthy insurance
company has acknowledged liability in writing), which judgments are not paid,
discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; (g) except as permitted by the
Indenture, if 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 behalf of a Guarantor, shall
deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Note Guarantee; and (h) certain
events of bankruptcy or insolvency as described in the Indenture.

      If any Event of Default (other than certain events of bankruptcy or
insolvency) occurs and is continuing, Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee to declare all the
Notes to be due and payable immediately. However, so long as any Indebtedness
permitted to be incurred pursuant to the New Credit Facilities shall be
outstanding, such acceleration shall not be effective until the earlier of (i)
an acceleration under any such Indebtedness under the New Credit Facilities; or
(ii) five Business Days after receipt by the Company and the administrative
agent under the New Credit Facilities of written notice of such acceleration.
Except as stated in the prior sentence, upon any such declaration, the Notes
shall become due and payable immediately. 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 of the Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the
Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee
in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders 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.

      13.   SUBORDINATION. The payment of Subordinated Note Obligations will be
subordinated in right of payment, as set forth in the Indenture, to the prior
payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of all Senior Indebtedness, whether
outstanding on the date of the Indenture or thereafter incurred. the Company
agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the payment of
principal of, premium and interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes
is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in
the Indenture, to the prior payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of all
Senior Indebtedness (whether outstanding on the date hereof or thereafter
created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and that the subordination is for the
benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

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

      15.   NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No member, director, officer, employee,
incorporator or stockholder, of the Company or any Guarantor, as such, shall
have any liability for any obligations of the Company and the Guarantors 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.

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

corporation, Person or entity whether or not affiliated with such Guarantor
unless:

      (i) subject to Sections 11.05 and 11.06 of the Indenture, the Person
      formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than a
      Guarantor or the Company) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of
      such Guarantor, pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and substance
      reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, under 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

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 Company

respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Indenture as the Note

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

Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a
Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or
another Guarantor.

      5.    RELEASES.

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 the Company, 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 Company to the Trustee of an Officers'

Trustee shall execute any

documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor
from its obligations under its Note Guarantee.

      (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 member,
director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations
of the Company 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 CONFLICT OF LAWS 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 Company.

                                      F-4
