trustee under the indenture referred to below (the "Trustee").

                               W I T N E S S E T H
                               - - - - - - - - - -

     WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee
an indenture (the "Indenture"), dated as of December 22, 2003 providing for the
issuance of an unlimited amount of 6 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014
(the "Notes");

     WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the
Guaranteeing Subsidiaries shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a
supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries shall
unconditionally guarantee all of the Company's Obligations (as defined in the
Indenture) under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set
forth herein (the "Subsidiary Guarantee"); and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is
authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

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

     1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

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

         (a)   Such Guaranteeing Subsidiary, jointly and severally with all
               other current and future guarantors of the Notes (collectively,
               the "Guarantors" and each, a "Guarantor"), unconditionally
               guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered
               by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns,
               regardless of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture,
               the Notes or the Obligations of the Company under the Indenture
               or the Notes, that:

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

                                       1

                    otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of,
                    premium, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the
                    Notes, to the extent lawful, and all other Obligations of
                    the Company to the Holders or the Trustee thereunder or
                    under the Indenture will be promptly paid in full, all in
                    accordance with the terms thereof; and

               (ii) in case of any extension of time for payment or renewal of
                    any Notes or any of such other Obligations, that the same
                    will be promptly paid in full when due in accordance with
                    the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated
                    maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

         (b)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that this Subsidiary
               Guarantee would constitute or result in a violation of any
               applicable fraudulent conveyance or similar law of any relevant
               jurisdiction, the liability of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under
               this Supplemental Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be
               reduced to the maximum amount permissible under such fraudulent
               conveyance or similar law.

     3. EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES.

         (a)   To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this
               Supplemental Indenture, such Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby
               agrees that a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee substantially
               in the form of Exhibit F to the Indenture shall be endorsed by an
               officer of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary on each Note
               authenticated and delivered by the Trustee after the date hereof.

         (b)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Guaranteeing Subsidiary
               hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth herein
               shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure
               to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

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

         (d)   The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication
               thereof under the Indenture, shall constitute due delivery of the
               Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Supplemental Indenture on
               behalf of each Guaranteeing Subsidiary.

         (e)   Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees that its Obligations
               hereunder shall be unconditional, regardless of the validity,
               regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the

                                       2

               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.

         (f)   Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary 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 covenants that its
               Subsidiary Guarantee made pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture
               will not be discharged except by complete performance of the
               Obligations contained in the Notes and the Indenture.

         (g)   If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or
               otherwise to return to the Company or any Guaranteeing
               Subsidiary, or any custodian, Trustee, liquidator or other
               similar official acting in relation to either the Company or such
               Guaranteeing Subsidiary, any amount paid by either to the Trustee
               or such Holder, the Subsidiary Guarantee made pursuant to this
               Supplemental Indenture, to the extent theretofore discharged,
               shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

         (h)   Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary 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 Guaranteeing Subsidiary
               further agrees that, as between such Guaranteeing Subsidiary, on
               the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand:

               (i)  the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be
                    accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for
                    the purposes of the Subsidiary Guarantee made pursuant to
                    this Supplemental Indenture, notwithstanding any stay,
                    injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration
                    in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby; and

               (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such
                    Obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such
                    Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith
                    become due and payable by such Guaranteeing Subsidiary for
                    the purpose of the Subsidiary Guarantee made pursuant to
                    this Supplemental Indenture.

         (i)   Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek
               contribution from any other non-paying Guaranteeing Subsidiary so
               long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of

                                       3

               the Holders or the Trustee under the Subsidiary Guarantee made
               pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture.

     4. GUARANTEEING SUBSIDIARY MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC. ON CERTAIN TERMS.

         (a)   Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 of the Indenture, nothing
               contained in the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture or in the
               Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of any
               Guaranteeing Subsidiary with or into the Company or any other
               Guarantor or shall prevent any transfer, sale or conveyance of
               the property of any Guaranteeing Subsidiary as an entirety or
               substantially as an entirety, to the Company or any other
               Guarantor.

         (b)   Except as set forth in Article 4 and 5 of the Indenture, nothing
               contained in the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture or in the
               Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of any
               Guaranteeing Subsidiary with or into a corporation or
               corporations other than the Company or any other Guarantor (in
               each case, whether or not affiliated with the Guaranteeing
               Subsidiary), or successive consolidations or mergers in which a
               Guaranteeing Subsidiary or its successor or successors shall be a
               party or parties, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the
               property of any Guaranteeing Subsidiary as an entirety or
               substantially as an entirety, to a corporation other than the
               Company or any other Guarantor (in each case, whether or not
               affiliated with the Guaranteeing Subsidiary) authorized to
               acquire and operate the same; provided, however, that each
               Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby covenants and agrees that (i)
               subject to the Indenture, upon any such consolidation, merger,
               sale or conveyance, the due and punctual performance and
               observance of all of the covenants and conditions of the
               Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture to be performed by such
               Guaranteeing Subsidiaries, shall be expressly assumed (in the
               event that such Guaranteeing Subsidiary is not the surviving
               corporation in the merger), by supplemental indenture
               satisfactory in form to the Trustee, executed and delivered to
               the Trustee, by the corporation formed by such consolidation, or
               into which such Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have been merged,
               or by the corporation which shall have acquired such property and
               (ii) immediately after giving effect to such consolidation,
               merger, sale or conveyance no Default or Event of Default exists.

         (c)   In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and
               upon the assumption by the successor corporation, by supplemental
               indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory
               in form to the Trustee, of the Subsidiary Guarantee made pursuant
               to this Supplemental Indenture and the due and

                                       4

               punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of
               the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture to be performed by
               such Guaranteeing Subsidiary, such successor corporation shall
               succeed to and be substituted for such Guaranteeing Subsidiary
               with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the
               Guaranteeing Subsidiary. Such successor corporation thereupon may
               cause to be signed any or all of the Subsidiary Guarantees to be
               endorsed upon the Notes issuable under the Indenture which
               theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and
               delivered to the Trustee. All the Subsidiary Guarantees so issued
               shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under
               the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture as the Subsidiary
               Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with
               the terms of the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture as
               though all of such Subsidiary Guarantees had been issued at the
               date of the execution hereof.

     5. RELEASES.

         (a)   Concurrently with any sale of assets (including, if applicable,
               all of the Capital Stock of a Guaranteeing Subsidiary), all
               Liens, if any, in favor of the Trustee in the assets sold thereby
               shall be released; provided that in the event of an Asset Sale,
               the Net Proceeds from such sale or other disposition are treated
               in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.10 of the
               Indenture. If the assets sold in such sale or other disposition
               include all or substantially all of the assets of a Guaranteeing
               Subsidiary or all of the Capital Stock of a Guaranteeing
               Subsidiary, then the Guaranteeing Subsidiary (in the event of a
               sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such
               Guaranteeing Subsidiary) or the Person acquiring the property (in
               the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially
               all of the assets of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary) shall be
               released from and relieved of its Obligations under this
               Supplemental Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee made pursuant
               hereto; provided that in the event of an Asset Sale, the Net
               Proceeds from such sale or other disposition are treated in
               accordance with the provisions of Section 4.10 of the Indenture.
               Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers'
               Certificate to the effect that such sale or other disposition was
               made by the Company or the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as the case
               may be, in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and
               this Supplemental Indenture, including without limitation,
               Section 4.10 of the Indenture, the Trustee shall execute any
               documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of
               the Guaranteeing Subsidiary from its Obligations under this
               Supplemental Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee made pursuant
               hereto. If the Guaranteeing Subsidiary is not released from its
               obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee, it shall remain
               liable for the full amount

                                       5

               of principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other
               obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Indenture
               as provided in this Supplemental Indenture.

         (b)   Upon the designation of a Guaranteeing Subsidiary as an
               Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the
               Indenture, such Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be released and
               relieved of its Obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee and
               this Supplemental Indenture. Upon delivery by the Company to the
               Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to
               the effect that such designation of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary
               as an Unrestricted Subsidiary was made by the Company in
               accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, including
               without limitation Section 4.07 of the Indenture, the Trustee
               shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to
               evidence the release of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary from its
               Obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee. Any Guaranteeing
               Subsidiary not released from its Obligations under its Subsidiary
               Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of
               and interest on the Notes and for the other Obligations of any
               Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Indenture as provided herein.

         (c)   Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be released and relieved of
               its obligations under this Supplemental Indenture in accordance
               with, and subject to, Section 4.18 of the Indenture.

     6. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of any Guaranteeing
Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any Obligations of the Company
or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any Subsidiary 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. SUBORDINATION OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES; ANTI-LAYERING. No Guaranteeing
Subsidiary shall incur, create, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become
liable for any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to
any Senior Debt of a Guaranteeing Subsidiary and senior in any respect in right
of payment to any of the Subsidiary Guarantees. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, the Subsidiary Guarantee of each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be
subordinated to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt of that
Guaranteeing Subsidiary (in the same manner and to the same extent that the
Notes are subordinated to Senior Debt), which shall include all guarantees of
Senior Debt.

     8. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

                                       6

     9. 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.

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

     11. 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 Subsidiaries and the Company.

                                       7

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

         subject to Performance Option in an amount equal to the product of (i)
         20%, (ii) the Applicable Percentage and (iii) the total number of
         shares subject to Optionee's Performance Option.

                  (c) If either all or a portion of Optionee's Performance
         Option do not become exercisable in any year pursuant to the above,
         such Option may nonetheless become exercisable based on the Cumulative
         Performance Target in an amount equal to (i) the product of (A) 40%, if
         the determination is on the second Anniversary Date, 60%, if on the
         third Anniversary Date, 80%, if on the fourth Anniversary Date and
         100%, if on the fifth Anniversary Date, (B) the Applicable Percentage
         and (C) total number of shares subject to Optionee's Performance Option

         Optionee's Performance Option which have become exercisable.

         subject to the Performance Option nine and one-half (9 1/2) years after
         the date of grant (but only to the extent such

         Performance Option has not otherwise terminated or become exercisable)
         at an exercise price of $20.00 per share, as adjusted pursuant to
         Section 2.4 herein, whether or not the Performance Targets are
         achieved.

Section 3.3 - Superperformance Option I and Superperformance Option II. The
Superperformance Option I and the Superperformance Option II shall vest upon the

Option II respectively set forth in Schedule C and the earliest of completion of
(x) an IPO, (y) a Change of Control or (z) a Recapitalization Event; and (ii) 9
1/2 years from the date of grant. IRR shall be determined on a fully-diluted

therewith) at the earlier of (1) 2 years after an IPO or (2) the sale by the
Lehman Fund of 50% of its shares owned after the closing of the purchase of the
Company (excluding the sell down of approximately $75 million anticipated to
occur after the Closing Date), which shall be calculated using the two year
trading average for purposes of (1) or the actual amount received for purposes
of (2). IRR shall be calculated using methodology comparable to that used in the
Sensitivity Case dated May 3, 1998, as attached hereto, and including any
dividends and distributions actually received by the Lehman Fund.

Section 3.4 - Acceleration Events. Notwithstanding anything in this Article III
to the contrary:

                  (a) The Time Option shall become fully exercisable early (but
         only to the extent such Time Option has not otherwise terminated or
         become exercisable) upon (i) a Termination of Employment on account of
         death or Disability, (ii) a Change of Control or (iii) a
         Recapitalization Event.

                  (b) The Performance Option shall become fully exercisable
         early (but only to the extent such Performance Option has not otherwise
         terminated or become exercisable) upon (i) a Change of Control, (ii) a
         Recapitalization Event or (iii) an IPO.

                  (c) The Superperformance Option I only shall become
         exercisable early (but only to the extent such Superperformance Option
         I has not otherwise terminated or become exercisable) as follows: (i)
         upon completion of an IPO during the first 36 months following the
         Closing Date, at least 50% of the shares subject to this
         Superperformance Option I shall vest and the balance shall vest in
         accordance with the IRR chart set forth in Section 3.3, above, or (ii)
         upon a Change of Control or a Recapitalization Event during the first
         36 months following the Closing Date, 100% of the shares subject to
         this Superperformance Option I shall vest.

Section 3.5 - Effect of Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise provided
in this Article III, no Option shall become exercisable as to any additional
shares of Common Stock following Termination of Employment, and such
unexercisable Option shall immediately terminate.

<PAGE>

                  (b) The first anniversary of the date of Termination of
         Employment (i) by reason of death, Disability, or Retirement or (ii)
         without Cause or for Good Reason; or

                  (c) The date of a Termination of Employment for Cause or
         without Good Reason; or

                  (d) The date of a Termination of Employment for any reason if
         the Option exercise price is higher than the FMV per Share subject to
         such Option on such date of Termination of Employment; or

                  (e) Upon a Change of Control, the Compensation Committee may
         terminate the Options, so long as the Optionee is cashed out at the
         Change of Control price or is permitted to exercise his Options prior
         to the Change of Control.

                               EXERCISE OF OPTION

Section 4.1 - Person Eligible to Exercise. During the lifetime of the Optionee,
only he, or in the event of disability his committee or conservator, may
exercise an Option or any portion thereof. After the death of the Optionee, any
exercisable portion of an Option may, prior to the time when an Option becomes
unexercisable under Section 3.6, be exercised by his beneficiary or estate.

Section 4.2 - Partial Exercise. Any exercisable portion of an Option or the
entire Option, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised in whole or in part
at any time prior to the time when the Option or portion thereof becomes
unexercisable under Section 3.6; provided, however, that any partial exercise
shall be for whole shares of Common Stock only.

Section 4.3 - Manner of Exercise. The Option, or any exercisable portion
thereof, may be exercised solely by delivering to the Secretary of the Company
or his office all of the following prior to the time when the Option or such
portion becomes unexercisable under Section 3.6:

                  (a) Notice in writing signed by the Optionee or the other
         person then entitled to exercise the Option or portion thereof, stating
         that the Option or portion thereof is thereby exercised, such notice
         complying with all applicable rules established by the Committee;

                  (b) Full payment (in cash, in Shares, by check or by a
         combination thereof) for the shares with respect to which such Option
         or portion thereof is exercised;

                  (c) A bona fide written representation and agreement, in a
         form satisfactory to the Committee, signed by the Optionee or other
         person then entitled to exercise such Option or portion thereof,
         stating that the shares of Common Stock are being acquired for his own
         account, for investment and without any present intention of
         distributing or reselling said shares or any of them except as may be
         permitted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and
         then applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and that the Optionee
         or other person then entitled to exercise such Option or portion
         thereof will indemnify the Company against and hold it free and
         harmless from any loss, damage,

                                       8
<PAGE>

         expense or liability resulting to the Company if any sale or
         distribution of the shares by such person is contrary to the
         representation and agreement referred to above; provided, however, that
         the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, take whatever additional
         actions it deems appropriate to ensure the observance and performance
         of such representation and agreement and to effect compliance with the
         Act and any other federal or state securities laws or regulations;

                  (d) Full payment to the Company of all amounts which, under
         federal, state or local law, it is required to withhold upon exercise
         of the Option; and

                  (e) In the event the Option or portion thereof shall be
         exercised pursuant to Section 4.1 by any person or persons other than
         the Optionee, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons
         to exercise the option.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee may require an
opinion of counsel acceptable to it to the effect that any subsequent transfer
of shares acquired on exercise of an Option does not violate the Act, and may
issue stop-transfer orders covering such shares. Share certificates evidencing
stock issued on exercise of this Option shall bear an appropriate legend
referring to the provisions of subsection (c) above and the agreements herein.
The written representation and agreement referred to in subsection (c) above
shall, however, not be required if the shares to be issued pursuant to such
exercise have been registered under the Act, and such registration is then
effective in respect of such shares.

Section 4.4 - Conditions to Issuance of Stock Certificates. The shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon the exercise of an Option, or any portion thereof, may be
either previously authorized but unissued shares or issued shares which have
then been reacquired by the Company. Such shares shall be fully paid and
nonassessable. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any
certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock purchased upon the
exercise of an Option or portion thereof prior to fulfillment of all of the
following conditions:

                  (a) The obtaining of approval or other clearance from any
         state or federal governmental agency which the Committee shall, in its
         absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and

                  (b) The lapse of such reasonable period of time following the
         exercise of the Option as the Committee may from time to time establish
         for reasons of administrative convenience.

Section 4.5 - Rights as Stockholder. The holder of an Option shall not be, nor
have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company in respect
of any shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Option or any portion thereof
unless and until certificates representing such shares shall have been issued by
the Company to such holder.

Section 5.1 - Administration. The Committee shall have the power to interpret
the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration,
interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to
interpret or revoke any such rules. All actions taken and all interpretations

Optionee, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the
Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or
interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or the Options. In
its absolute discretion, the Board of Directors may at any time and from time to
time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee under the Plan and
this Agreement.

Section 5.2 - Options Not Transferable. Neither the Options nor any interest or
right therein or part thereof shall be liable for the debts, contracts or
engagements of the Optionee or his successors in interest or shall be subject to
disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance,
assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or
involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or
any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any
attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect; provided,
however, that this Section 5.2 shall not prevent transfers by will or by the
applicable laws of descent and distribution.

Section 5.3 - Shares to Be Reserved. The Company shall at all times during the
term of the Options reserve and keep available such number of shares of Common
Stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this Agreement.

Section 5.4 - Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement
to the Company shall be addressed to the Company in care of its Secretary, and
any notice to be given to the Optionee shall be addressed to him at the address
given beneath his signature hereto. By a notice given pursuant to this Section
5.4, either party may hereafter designate a different address for notices to be
given to him. Any notice which is required to be given to the Optionee shall, if
the Optionee is then deceased, be given to the Optionee's personal
representative if such representative has previously informed the Company of his
status and address by written notice under this Section 5.4. Any notice shall
have been deemed duly given when enclosed in a properly sealed envelope or
wrapper addressed as aforesaid, deposited (with postage prepaid) in a post
office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal
Service.

Section 5.5 - Titles. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are

Stockholders Agreement. The Options and the shares of Common Stock issued to the

Agreement, to the extent applicable to the Options and such shares. In the event
of any conflict between this Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall
control. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement, the Plan and the
Common Stock Ownership Agreement, the terms of the Common Stock Ownership
Agreement

                                       10
<PAGE>

shall control. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement or the Plan
or the Common Stock Ownership Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement, the
terms of the Stockholders Agreement shall control.

Section 5.7 - Amendment. This Agreement may be amended only by a writing
executed by the parties hereto which specifically states that it is amending
this Agreement.

Section 5.8 - Dispute Resolution. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in
connection with this Agreement shall be resolved by arbitration. Arbitrators

fees in connection with such arbitration in the event that the Optionee prevails
on a material element of his claim or defense.

Section 5.9 - Governing Law. The laws of the State of New York shall govern the
interpretation, validity and performance of the terms of this Agreement
regardless of the law that might be applied under principles of conflicts of
laws.

with respect to this Agreement, or any judgment entered by any court in respect
of any thereof, shall be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in the
State of New York, as the Company may elect in its sole discretion, and the
Optionee hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the
purpose of any such suit, action, proceeding or judgment. The Optionee hereby
irrevocably waives any objections which he may now or hereafter have to the
laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Agreement brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of
New York, and hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit,
action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in any
inconvenient forum. No suit, action or proceeding against the Company with
respect to this Agreement may be brought in any court, domestic or foreign, or
before any similar domestic or foreign authority other than in a court of
competent jurisdiction in the State of New York, and the Optionee hereby
irrevocably waives any right which he may otherwise have had to bring such an
action in any other court, domestic or foreign, or before any similar domestic
