for  exchange  ("REGISTRAR"),  (b) Notes may be  presented  or  surrendered  for
payment  ("PAYING  AGENT") and (c) notices and demands to or upon the Company in
respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served.  The Registrar shall keep
a register of the Notes and of their  transfer and exchange.  The Company,  upon
prior written notice to the Trustee,  may have one or more co-Registrars and one
or more additional Paying Agents reasonably  acceptable to the Trustee. The term
"Paying Agent" includes any additional Paying Agent. Neither the Company nor any
Affiliate of the Company may act as Paying Agent.

            The Company shall enter into an  appropriate  agency  agreement with
any Agent not a party to this Indenture,  which agreement shall  incorporate the
provisions of the TIA and implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate
to such Agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing,  in advance,  of
the name and address of any such Agent and otherwise be reasonably  satisfactory
to the Trustee. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, or
fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such.

            The Company  initially  appoints  the Trustee as  Registrar,  Paying
Agent and agent for service of demands and notices in connection with the Notes.
The Paying Agent or Registrar may resign upon thirty (30) days'  written  notice
to the Company.

                                      -24-

            SECTION 2.04. OBLIGATIONS OF PAYING AGENT.

            The Company  shall  require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee
to agree in writing that such Paying  Agent shall hold  separate and apart from,
and not commingle with any other  properties,  for the benefit of the Holders or
the  Trustee,  all assets held by the Paying  Agent for the payment of principal
of, or interest on, the Notes  (whether such assets have been  distributed to it
by the  Company or any other  obligor on the  Notes),  and the  Company  and the
Paying  Agent shall  notify the Trustee in writing of any Default by the Company
(or any other obligor on the Notes) in making any such  payment.  The Company at
any time may require a Paying Agent to  distribute  all assets held by it to the
Trustee  and account  for any assets  disbursed  and the Trustee may at any time
during the continuance of any payment Default,  upon written request to a Paying
Agent,  require  such Paying  Agent to  distribute  all assets held by it to the
Trustee and to account for any assets  distributed.  Upon receipt by the Trustee
of all assets that shall have been delivered by the Company to the Paying Agent,
the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for such assets.

            SECTION 2.05. HOLDER LISTS.

            The Trustee  shall  preserve  in as current a form as is  reasonably
practicable  the most recent list  available to it of the names and addresses of
the Holders and shall otherwise  comply with TIA Section 312(a).  If the Trustee
is not the  Registrar,  the  Company  shall  furnish or cause the  Registrar  to
furnish to the  Trustee  before  each Record Date and at such other times as the
Trustee  may  request  in writing a list as of such date and in such form as the
Trustee may reasonably request of the names and addresses of the Holders,  which
list may be conclusively relied upon by the Trustee.

            SECTION 2.06. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

            Subject to the provisions of SECTIONS 2.14 and 2.15,  when Notes are
presented  to the  Registrar  or a  co-Registrar  with a request to register the
transfer of such Notes or to exchange such Notes for an equal  principal  amount
of Notes of other authorized denominations,  the Registrar or co-Registrar shall
register the transfer or make the exchange as requested; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
the Notes  presented or  surrendered  for  registration  of transfer or exchange
shall be duly  endorsed or  accompanied  by a written  instrument of transfer in
form  satisfactory  to the  Company  and the  Registrar  or  co-Registrar,  duly
executed by the Holder  thereof or his attorney  duly  authorized in writing and
such other documents as the Registrar or Co-Registrar may reasonably require. To
permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall issue and the
Trustee shall authenticate  Notes at the Registrar's or co-Registrar's  request.
No service  charge shall be made for any  registration  of transfer or exchange,
but the Company or the Trustee 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
exchanges or transfers  pursuant to SECTION 2.10,  3.01, 3.06, 3.07, 3.08, 4.13,
4.15 or 9.05, in which event the Company shall be responsible for the payment of
such taxes).

            The Registrar or co-Registrar  shall not be required to register the
transfer or exchange of any Note (i) during a period beginning at the opening of
business fifteen (15) days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes
and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing and (ii) selected
for  redemption  in whole or in part  pursuant  to  ARTICLE  THREE,  except  the
unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

            Any Holder of a Global  Note  shall,  by  acceptance  of such Global
Note,  agree that  transfers of beneficial  interests in such Global Note may be
effected only through the Depository,  in accordance with this Indenture and the
Applicable Procedures.

                                      -25-

            SECTION 2.07. REPLACEMENT NOTES.

            If a mutilated  Note is  surrendered to the Trustee or if the Holder
of a Note claims in writing that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully
taken, then, in the absence of written notice to the Company upon its request or
the  Trustee  that such Note has been  acquired by a  protected  purchaser,  the
Company shall issue and the Trustee  shall  authenticate  a replacement  Note of
like  tenor and  principal  amount and  bearing a number  not  contemporaneously
outstanding  if the  Trustee's  requirements  are met.  Except  with  respect to
mutilated  Notes,  if required by the Trustee or the  Company,  such Holder must
provide  an  affidavit  of lost  certificate  and an  indemnity  bond  or  other
indemnity,  sufficient  in the judgment of both the Company and the Trustee,  to
protect  the  Company,  the Trustee or any Agent from any loss which any of them
may suffer if a Note is  replaced.  The  Company  may charge such Holder for its
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in replacing a Note, including reasonable fees
and  expenses  of  its  counsel  and of  the  Trustee  and  its  counsel.  Every
replacement  Note shall  constitute  an  additional  obligation  of the Company,
entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

            SECTION 2.08. OUTSTANDING NOTES.

            Notes  outstanding  at any time are all the  Notes  that  have  been
authenticated by the Trustee except those cancelled by it, those delivered to it
for  cancellation  and those described in this SECTION 2.08 as not  outstanding.
Subject  to the  provisions  of  SECTION  2.09,  a Note  does  not  cease  to be
outstanding because the Company or any of its Affiliates holds the Note.

            If a Note  is  replaced  pursuant  to  SECTION  2.07  (other  than a
mutilated Note surrendered for replacement),  it ceases to be outstanding unless
the Trustee receives proof  satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by
a BONA FIDE purchaser.  A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender
of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to SECTION 2.07.

            If on a Redemption  Date or the Maturity  Date,  or the Business Day
following  the  Optional Put Date,  the Paying Agent holds U.S.  Legal Tender or
U.S. Government  Obligations sufficient to pay all of the principal and interest
due on the Notes  payable on that date and is not  prohibited  from  paying such
money to the Holders thereof  pursuant to the terms of this  Indenture,  then on
and after that date such Notes  cease to be  outstanding  and  interest  on them
ceases to accrue.

            SECTION 2.09. TREASURY NOTES; WHEN NOTES ARE DISREGARDED.

            In determining  whether the Holders of the required principal amount
of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver, consent or notice, Notes owned
by the Company or any of its  Affiliates  shall be considered as though they are
not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee
shall be protected  in relying on any such  direction,  waiver or consent,  only
Notes which a Trust Officer of the Trustee  actually knows are so owned shall be
so  considered.  The Company shall notify the Trustee,  in writing (which notice
shall constitute actual notice for purposes of the foregoing sentence),  when it
or any  of its  Affiliates  repurchases  or  otherwise  acquires  Notes,  of the
aggregate principal amount of such Notes so repurchased or otherwise acquired.

            SECTION 2.10. TEMPORARY NOTES.

            Until  definitive  Notes are ready for  delivery,  the  Company  may
prepare  and execute and the Trustee  shall  authenticate  temporary  Notes upon
receipt  of a  written  order  of  the  Company  in  the  form  of an  Officers'
Certificate.  The  Officers'  Certificate  shall specify the amount of temporary
Notes to be  authenticated  and the date on which the temporary  Notes are to be
authenticated.  Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive
Notes  but may  have  variations  that the  Company  considers  appropriate  for

                                      -26-

temporary Notes.  Without  unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the
Trustee  shall  authenticate  upon  receipt  of a written  order of the  Company
pursuant to SECTION 2.02 definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. Until
so exchanged,  the temporary  Notes shall be entitled to the same benefits under
this Indenture as definitive Notes.

            SECTION 2.11. CANCELLATION.

            The Company at any time may deliver Notes  previously  authenticated
hereunder  which the Company has acquired in any lawful  manner,  to the Trustee
for  cancellation.  The  Registrar  and the Paying  Agent  shall  forward to the
Trustee any Notes  surrendered  to them for transfer,  exchange or payment.  The
Trustee, or at the direction of the Trustee,  the Registrar or the Paying Agent,
and no one else,  shall cancel all Notes  surrendered  for  transfer,  exchange,
payment or cancellation.  Subject to SECTION 2.07, the Company may not issue new
Notes  to  replace  Notes  that it has  paid or  delivered  to the  Trustee  for
cancellation.  If the Company shall acquire any of the Notes,  such  acquisition
shall  not  operate  as  a  redemption  or  satisfaction  of  the   Indebtedness
represented  by such  Notes  unless  and until the same are  surrendered  to the
Trustee  for  cancellation  pursuant to this  SECTION  2.11.  The Trustee  shall
dispose of all cancelled  Notes in accordance  with customary  procedures or, at
the written request of the Company, shall return the same to the Company.

            SECTION 2.12. CUSIP NUMBERS.

            A "CUSIP"  number  shall be printed on the  Notes,  and the  Trustee
shall use the CUSIP number in notices of  redemption,  purchase or exchange as a
convenience  to  Holders;  PROVIDED  THAT  any such  notice  may  state  that no
representation  is made as to the  correctness  or accuracy of the CUSIP  number
printed in the notice or on the Notes and that  reliance  may be placed  only on
the other  identification  numbers  printed  on the  Notes.  The  Company  shall
promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP number.

            SECTION 2.13. DEPOSIT OF MONEYS.

            Prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time on each Interest Payment Date
and the  Maturity  Date,  the Company  shall  deposit with the Paying Agent U.S.
Legal Tender  sufficient  to make cash  payments,  if any, due on such  Interest
Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be.

            SECTION 2.14. BOOK-ENTRY PROVISIONS FOR GLOBAL NOTES.

            (a) The Global Notes  initially  shall (i) be registered in the name
of the  Depository or the nominee of such  Depository,  (ii) be delivered to the
Trustee as custodian for such  Depository and (iii) bear legends as set forth in
EXHIBIT B-1.

            Members of, or  participants  in, the Depository  ("AGENT  MEMBERS")
shall have no rights under this  Indenture  with respect to any Global Note held
on their behalf by the Depository, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under any
Global Note, and the  Depository may be treated by the Company,  the Trustee and
any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Note
for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall
prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from
giving  effect  to any  written  certification,  proxy  or  other  authorization
furnished by the  Depository or impair,  as between the Depository and its Agent
Members,  the  operation of customary  practices  governing  the exercise of the
rights of a Holder of any Note.

                                      -27-

            (b)  Transfers  of the Global Notes shall be limited to transfers in
whole,  but not in part, to the Depository,  its successors or their  respective
nominees.  Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Notes may be transferred
or exchanged in accordance with the Applicable  Procedures of the Depository and
the  provisions of SECTION  2.15.  In addition,  Notes in the form of definitive
Notes in  registered  form in  substantially  the form set forth in  EXHIBITS  A
hereto (the "PHYSICAL  NOTES") shall be transferred to all beneficial  owners in
exchange  for  their  beneficial  interests  in the  Global  Notes  if  (i)  the
Depository  notifies  the Company  that it is unwilling or unable to continue as
Depository  for the Global Notes and a successor  Depository is not appointed by
the Company  within  ninety (90) days of such notice or (ii) an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request from the
Depository to issue Physical Notes.

            (c) Any  beneficial  interest  in one of the  Global  Notes  that is
transferred to a person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another
Global Note shall,  upon  transfer,  cease to be an interest in such Global Note
and become a  beneficial  interest in such other  Global Note and,  accordingly,
shall  thereafter  be subject to all  transfer  restrictions,  if any, and other
procedures applicable to a beneficial interest in such other Global Notes for as
long as it remains such an interest.

            (d) In connection  with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the
beneficial  interest  in the  Global  Note  to  beneficial  owners  pursuant  to
PARAGRAPH  (b), the  Registrar  shall (if one or more  Physical  Notes are to be
issued)  reflect  on its  books  and  records  the  date and a  decrease  in the
principal  amount of the Global Note in an amount equal to the principal  amount
of the beneficial interest in the Global Note to be transferred, and the Company
shall  execute,  and the Trustee  shall  authenticate  and deliver,  one or more
Physical Notes of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

            (e) In  connection  with the  transfer  of an entire  Global Note to
beneficial owners pursuant to PARAGRAPH (b), the Global Notes shall be deemed to
be surrendered to the Trustee for  cancellation,  and the Company shall execute,
and the  Trustee  shall  authenticate  and  deliver,  to each  beneficial  owner
identified  by the  Depository  in exchange for its  beneficial  interest in the
Global  Notes,  an  equal  aggregate  principal  amount  of  Physical  Notes  of
authorized denominations.

            (f) Any Physical Note constituting a Restricted  Security  delivered
in exchange for an interest in the Global Note  pursuant to PARAGRAPH (b) or (c)
shall,  except as otherwise provided by PARAGRAPHS  (a)(i)(x) and (c) of SECTION
2.15, bear the legend regarding transfer restrictions applicable to the Physical
Notes set forth in EXHIBIT A hereto.

            (g) The  Holder of a Global  Note may grant  proxies  and  otherwise
authorize  any  Person,  including  Agent  Members  and  Persons  that  may hold
interests  through Agent Members,  to take any action which a Holder is entitled
to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

            SECTION 2.15. SPECIAL TRANSFER PROVISIONS.

            (a)  TRANSFERS TO NON-QIB  INSTITUTIONAL  ACCREDITED  INVESTORS  AND
NON-U.S.  PERSONS.  The  following  provisions  shall apply with  respect to the
registration  of any  proposed  transfer  of a Note  constituting  a  Restricted
Security to any Institutional  Accredited  Investor which is not a QIB or to any
Non-U.S. Person:

            (i)  the  Registrar   shall   register  the  transfer  of  any  Note
      constituting  a  Restricted  Security,  whether or not such Note bears the
      Private Placement Legend, if (x) the requested  transfer is after July 26,
      2006 or (y) (1) in the case of a transfer to an  Institutional  Accredited
      Investor which is not a QIB  (excluding  Non-U.S.  Persons),  the proposed
      transferee has delivered to the Registrar a certificate  substantially  in
      the  form of  EXHIBIT  C  hereto  or (2) in the  case of a  transfer  to a

                                      -28-

      Non-U.S.  Person, the proposed transferor has delivered to the Registrar a
      certificate substantially in the form of EXHIBIT D hereto; and

            (ii)  if the  proposed  transferor  is an  Agent  Member  holding  a
      beneficial  interest in the Global Note,  upon receipt by the Registrar of
      (x) the  certificate,  if any,  required  by  PARAGRAPH  (i) above and (y)
      instructions  given in accordance  with the Applicable  Procedures and the
      Registrar's procedures,

whereupon (1) the Registrar  shall reflect on its books and records the date and
(if the transfer does not involve a transfer of  outstanding  Physical  Notes) a
decrease in the  principal  amount of the Global Note in an amount  equal to the
principal  amount  of  the  beneficial   interest  in  the  Global  Note  to  be
transferred,   and  (2)  the  Company   shall  execute  and  the  Trustee  shall
authenticate  and deliver one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and principal
amount.

            (b)  TRANSFERS TO QIBS.  The following  provisions  shall apply with
respect to the  registration of any proposed  transfer of a Note  constituting a
Restricted Security to a QIB (excluding transfers to Non-U.S. Persons):

            (i) the  Registrar  shall  register the transfer if such transfer is
      being made by a proposed  transferor  who has checked the box provided for
      on the form of Note stating,  or has otherwise advised the Company and the
      Registrar in writing,  that the sale has been made in compliance  with the
      provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee  who has signed the  certification
      provided for on the form of Note  stating,  or has  otherwise  advised the
      Company and the Registrar in writing,  that it is purchasing  the Note for
      its own  account or an account  with  respect to which it  exercises  sole
      investment discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB within the
      meaning  of Rule  144A,  and is aware that the sale to it is being made in
      reliance  on  Rule  144A  and  acknowledges  that  it  has  received  such
      information  regarding  the Company as it has  requested  pursuant to Rule
      144A or has  determined  not to request  such  information  and that it is
      aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in
      order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; and

            (ii) if the proposed transferee is an Agent Member, and the Notes to
      be  transferred  consist of Physical  Notes which after transfer are to be
      evidenced by an interest in the Global Note, upon receipt by the Registrar
      of instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the
      Registrar's  procedures,  the  Registrar  shall  reflect  on its books and
      records  the date and an increase  in the  principal  amount of the Global
      Note in an amount equal to the principal  amount of the Physical  Notes to
      be  transferred,  and the  Trustee  shall  cancel  the  Physical  Notes so
      transferred.

            (c)  PRIVATE  PLACEMENT  LEGEND.  Upon  the  transfer,  exchange  or
replacement  of Notes not bearing the Private  Placement  Legend,  the Registrar
shall  deliver  Notes that do not bear the Private  Placement  Legend.  Upon the
transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the Private Placement Legend,
the Registrar  shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private  Placement  Legend
unless (i) the circumstance  contemplated by PARAGRAPH (a)(i)(x) of this SECTION
2.15 exists or (ii) there is  delivered  to the  Registrar an Opinion of Counsel
reasonably  satisfactory  to the  Company  and the  Trustee to the  effect  that
neither  such legend nor the related  restrictions  on transfer  are required in
order to maintain  compliance  with the  provisions of the  Securities  Act. The
Registrar  shall not  register  a  transfer  of any Note  unless  such  transfer
complies  with the  restrictions  on  transfer  of such  Note set  forth in this
Indenture.  In connection with any transfer of Notes,  each Holder agrees by its
acceptance   of  the  Notes  to  furnish  the  Registrar  or  the  Company  such
certifications,  legal  opinions  or other  information  as  either  of them may
reasonably  require to confirm that such  transfer is being made  pursuant to an

                                      -29-

exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the  registration  requirements
of the  Securities  Act;  PROVIDED THAT the  Registrar  shall not be required to
determine (but may rely on a determination  made by the Company with respect to)
the sufficiency of any such certifications, legal opinions or other information.

            (d)  GENERAL.  By its  acceptance  of any Note  bearing  the Private
Placement  Legend,  each Holder of such a Note  acknowledges the restrictions on
transfer of such Note set forth in this  Indenture and in the Private  Placement
Legend and agrees  that it shall  transfer  such Note only as  provided  in this
Indenture.

            The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters,  notices and other
written  communications  received pursuant to SECTION 2.14 or this SECTION 2.15.
The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters,
notices or other written  communications  at any reasonable time upon the giving
of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

                                 ARTICLE THREE

                                   REDEMPTION

            SECTION 3.01. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

            The Company  may, at its  option,  redeem the Notes,  in whole or in
part,  at  specified  times  and  under  specified  conditions,  as set forth in
Paragraph 5 of the Notes.  If the  Company  elects to redeem  Notes  pursuant to
Paragraph  5 of the  Notes,  it  shall,  at least  sixty  (60) days  before  the
Redemption  Date,   furnish  to  the  Trustee  and  Paying  Agent  an  Officers'
Certificate  setting forth the Redemption  Date and the principal  amount of the
Notes to be  redeemed  and the clause of this  Indenture  pursuant  to which the
redemption shall occur.

            Each Officers'  Certificate  provided for in this SECTION 3.01 shall
be  accompanied  by an Opinion of Counsel  stating  that such  redemption  shall
comply with the conditions contained herein and in the Notes.

            SECTION 3.02. SELECTION OF NOTES TO BE REDEEMED.

            If fewer  than  all of the  Notes  are to be  redeemed  pursuant  to
Paragraph 5 of the Notes,  the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed (1)
in  compliance  with  the  requirements  of the  principal  national  securities
exchange,  if any,  on which  such Notes are listed or (2) if such Notes are not
then listed on a national  securities  exchange,  on a PRO RATA basis or by such
method as the Trustee may reasonably determine is fair and appropriate, PROVIDED
THAT no  partial  redemption  will  reduce  the  principal  amount of a Note not
redeemed to less than  $1,000.  The Trustee  shall make the  selection  from the
Notes  outstanding  and not previously  called for redemption and 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 in denominations of $1,000 may be redeemed only in whole.
The Trustee may select for redemption  portions (equal to $1,000 or any integral
multiple thereof) of the principal of Notes that have denominations  larger than
$1,000.  Provisions of this  Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption
also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

            SECTION 3.03. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

            At least thirty (30) days but not more than sixty (60) days before a
Redemption  Date,  the  Company  shall  mail or cause to be  mailed a notice  of
redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid,  to each Holder whose Notes are
to be redeemed  at its  registered  address,  with a copy to the Trustee and any

                                      -30-

Paying  Agent.  At the  Company's  written  request,  the Trustee shall give the
notice of redemption in the Company's name and at the Company's expense. Failure
to give notice of  redemption,  or any defect  therein to any Holder of any Note
selected  for  redemption  shall  not  impair  or  affect  the  validity  of the
redemption of any other Note.

            Each notice of  redemption  shall  identify the Notes to be redeemed
and shall state:

            (1) the Redemption Date;

            (2) the  Redemption  Price and the  amount of accrued  interest  and
      Liquidated Damages, if any, to be paid;

            (3) the name and  address  of the  Paying  Agent and the  Conversion
      Agent;

            (4) the CUSIP number;

            (5) briefly,  the conversion  rights of the Notes and the Holder may
      convert  any or all of such  Holder's  Notes  that  have been  called  for
      redemption at any time prior to the Redemption Date;

            (6) the  subparagraph of the Notes pursuant to which such redemption
      is being made;

            (7) the  place  where  such  Notes  called  for  redemption  must be
      surrendered  to the Paying  Agent to  collect  the  Redemption  Price plus
      accrued interest, if any;

            (8) that,  unless the Company fails to deposit with the Paying Agent
      funds in  satisfaction  of the applicable  redemption  price,  interest on

interest,  if any, interest on the Notes to be redeemed shall cease to accrue on

fails to apply for a license,  qualification or a finding of suitability  within
thirty  (30) days after  being  requested  to do so by the Gaming  Authority  or
Racing  Authority  (or such  lesser  period  that may be required by such Gaming
Authority or Racing  Authority),  or if such Holder or such beneficial  owner is
not so licensed,  qualified or found suitable, the Company shall have the right,
at its option, (1) to require such Holder or beneficial owner to dispose of such
Holder's or beneficial owner's Notes within 30 days of receipt of notice of such
finding by the applicable  Gaming  Authority or Racing Authority or such earlier

redeem the Notes of such Holder or beneficial  owner (possibly  within less than
thirty  (30) days  following  the  notice of  redemption,  if so ordered by such
Gaming Authority or Racing  Authority) at a redemption price equal to the lesser

            (b)  The  Holder  or  beneficial   owner  applying  for  a  license,
qualification  or a finding of  suitability  must pay all costs of the licensure
and investigation for such qualification or finding of suitability.  The Company
shall not be required to pay or reimburse  any Holder of the Notes or beneficial
owner who is required  to apply for such  license,  qualification  or finding of
suitability  for  the  costs  of  the  licensure  and   investigation  for  such
qualification or finding of suitability.  Such expense will be the obligation of
such Holder or beneficial owner.

            (c)  Immediately  upon the  imposition  by any Gaming  Authority  or
Racing Authority of a finding that any Holder or beneficial owner dispose of the
Notes, such Holder or beneficial Holder will have no further rights to exercise,
directly or indirectly,  through any trustee,  nominee or any other Person,  (i)
any right conferred by the Notes  (including,  without  limitation,  pursuant to
Article  Twelve) or (ii) to  receive  any  interest  or other  distributions  or
payments  with  respect to the Note,  except the  redemption  price  referred to

installment in full and is not prohibited  from paying such money to the Holders
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

            Notwithstanding   anything  to  the   contrary   contained  in  this

office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address  thereof,
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the
Corporate  Trust Office and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent

                                      -34-

preserve,  with respect to itself,  any material  right or franchise  and,  with
respect  to any of its  Subsidiaries,  any  such  existence,  material  right or
franchise,  if the Board of Directors of the  Company,  shall  determine in good
faith that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the
business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

            SECTION 4.04. PAYMENT OF TAXES AND OTHER CLAIMS.

            The  Company  shall  pay  or  discharge  or  cause  to  be  paid  or

penalties,  interest and additions to taxes) levied or imposed upon it or any of
the Guarantors or its properties or any of the  Guarantors'  properties and (ii)
all material  lawful claims for labor,  materials and supplies  that, if unpaid,
might  by law  become  a Lien  upon  its  properties  or any of the  Guarantors'
properties;  PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to pay or
discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment,  charge or
claim whose amount,  applicability or validity is being or shall be contested in

actively conduct and carry on its business;  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER, that nothing in
this  SECTION  4.05 shall  prevent  the  Company or any of the  Guarantors  from
discontinuing  the operation and  maintenance  of any of its  properties if such
discontinuance is, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors or other
governing  body of the Company or the Guarantor  concerned,  as the case may be,
desirable in the conduct of its  businesses  and is not  disadvantageous  in any
material respect to the Holders.

            (b) The Company  shall  maintain  insurance  (including  appropriate
self-insurance)  against  loss or damage of the kinds  that,  in the good  faith

insurers  or  with  the  government  of  the  United  States  or  an  agency  or
instrumentality  thereof,  in such amounts,  with such deductibles,  and by such

Default that has occurred and is continuing  or, if such signers do know of such
Default or Event of Default, the certificate shall describe the Default or Event
of Default and its status with  particularity.  The Officers'  Certificate shall
also notify the Trustee  should the Company  elect to change the manner in which
it fixes its fiscal year end.

            SECTION 4.07. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.

            The  Company  shall,  and shall cause each of its  Subsidiaries  to,

governmental department, commission, board, regulatory authority, bureau, agency
and  instrumentality  of  the  foregoing,  in  respect  of  the  conduct  of its
businesses and the ownership of its properties,  except for such  noncompliances
as are not in the aggregate  reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect
on the  financial  condition  or results of  operations  of the  Company and its
Subsidiaries,  taken as a whole or the  ability of the  Company  to perform  its
obligations hereunder.

            SECTION 4.08. REPORTS TO HOLDERS.

            The  Company  will mail copies of its annual  reports and  quarterly

the information, if any, required under Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act
until such time as such securities are no longer "restricted  securities" within
the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, assuming these securities have
not been owned by an affiliate of the Company.

            Delivery of such reports,  information  and documents to the Trustee
is for  informational  purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not
constitute   constructive  notice  of  any  information   contained  therein  or
determinable  from  information  contained  therein,   including  the  Company's
compliance  with any of its  covenants  hereunder  (as to which the  Trustee  is

            The Company and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that
it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon,  plead,  or in
any manner  whatsoever  claim or take the benefit or  advantage  of, any stay or
extension  law or any usury law or other law that would  prohibit or forgive the
Company  and  each of the  Guarantors  from  paying  all or any  portion  of the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes as contemplated  herein,
wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the
covenants or the performance of this  Indenture;  and (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) the Company and each of the Guarantors  hereby  expressly waives
all  benefit  or  advantage  of any such law,  and  covenants  that it shall not

                                      -36-

hinder,  delay or impede  the  execution  of any  power  herein  granted  to the
Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law had been enacted.

            SECTION 4.10. AUTHORIZATION AND LISTING.

            The Company will at all times reserve and keep  available out of its
authorized  and unissued  shares of Common  Stock,  solely for issuance upon the
conversion  of the Notes,  that  number of shares of Common  Stock as shall from
time to time be issuable upon  conversion of all of the Notes then  outstanding.
The Company  will use its  reasonable  best efforts to have the shares of Common
Stock  issuable upon  conversion of the Notes approved for listing on the Nasdaq
Small Cap Market prior to the date of issuance of the Notes, subject to official
notice of issuance of such shares.

            SECTION 4.11. LIMITATION ON INCURRENCE OF ADDITIONAL INDEBTEDNESS.

permit any of its  Subsidiaries  to,  directly  or  indirectly,  create,  incur,
assume,  guarantee,  acquire,  become liable,  contingently  or otherwise,  with
respect  to, or  otherwise  become  responsible  for  payment of  (collectively,
"INCUR")  any  Indebtedness  (other  than  Permitted  Indebtedness);   PROVIDED,
HOWEVER,  that if no  Default or Event of Default  shall  have  occurred  and be
continuing  at the time of or as a  consequence  of the  incurrence  of any such
Indebtedness,  the Company or any Guarantor may incur  Indebtedness  (including,
without limitation,  Acquired  Indebtedness) if on the date of the incurrence of
such  Indebtedness the  Consolidated  Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company
will be, after giving effect to the incurrence thereof, greater than 2.0 to 1.0.

            Uniform  Commercial Code financing  statements in such jurisdictions
            as may be required by the Security Agreement or by law;

                                      -37-

                        (4) take such  further  action and  execute  and deliver
            such  other  documents  specified  in the  Indenture  to effect  the
            foregoing; and

                        (5)  deliver to the  Trustee an Opinion of Counsel  that
            such supplemental  indenture and any other documents  required to be

make an offer to purchase all  outstanding  Notes  pursuant to the  requirements
described  in CLAUSE  (b) below (the  "CHANGE  OF CONTROL  OFFER") at a purchase
price  in cash  equal to 101% of the  principal  amount  thereof  on the date of
purchase  plus  accrued and unpaid  interest  and  Liquidated  Damages,  if any,
thereon to the date of purchase.

            (b) Within thirty (30) days following the date upon which the Change
of Control  occurred (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL DATE"),  the Company shall send, by
registered first class mail, postage prepaid,  an offer to each record Holder as
shown on the register of Holders, with a copy to the Trustee,  which offer shall
govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. The notice to the Holders shall
contain all  instructions  and  materials  necessary  to enable such  Holders to

                        (1) that  the  Change  of  Control  Offer is being  made
            pursuant to this  SECTION  4.13 and that all Notes  tendered and not
            withdrawn shall be accepted for payment;

                        (2) the purchase price  (including the amount of accrued
            interest)  and the  purchase  date (which  shall be no earlier  than
            thirty  (30) days nor later  than sixty (60) days from the date such
            offer is mailed,  other than as may be required by law) (the "CHANGE
            OF CONTROL PAYMENT DATE");

                        (3) that any Note not tendered  shall continue to accrue
            interest;

                        (4) that,  unless the Company defaults in making payment
            therefor,  any Note  accepted for payment  pursuant to the Change of
            Control  Offer  shall cease to accrue  interest  after the Change of
            Control Payment Date;

                        (5)  that  Holders  electing  to  have a Note  purchased
            pursuant to a Change of Control 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,  to the Paying Agent
            at the address specified in the offer prior to the close of business
            on the third  Business  Day prior to the Change of  Control  Payment
            Date;

                        (6) that  Holders  shall be entitled  to withdraw  their
            election  if the  Paying  Agent  receives,  not later  than five (5)
            Business  Days  prior to the  Change  of  Control  Payment  Date,  a
            facsimile  transmission  or  letter  setting  forth  the name of the
            Holder,  the principal  amount of the Notes the Holder delivered for
            purchase  and a  statement  that  such  Holder  is  withdrawing  its
            election to have such Notes purchased;

                                      -38-

                        (7) that Holders whose Notes are purchased  only in part
            shall  be  issued  new  Notes  in a  principal  amount  equal to the
            unpurchased  portion of the Notes  surrendered;  PROVIDED  THAT each
            Note  purchased  and each new Note  issued  shall be in an  original
            principal amount of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof; and

                        (8) the  circumstances and relevant facts regarding such
            Change of Control.

            If any of the Notes subject to the Change of Control Offer is in the
form of a Global Note,  then the Company  shall modify such notice to the extent
necessary  to  comply  with  the  procedures  of the  Depository  applicable  to
repurchases.

            On or before the Change of Control  Payment Date,  the Company shall
(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly  tendered pursuant
to the Change of Control  Offer,  (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent U.S.  Legal
Tender  sufficient to pay the purchase price plus accrued  interest,  if any, 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 shall  promptly  mail to the
Holders of Notes so tendered the  purchase  price for such Notes and the Company
shall promptly issue and the Trustee shall  promptly  authenticate  and mail (or
cause to be  transferred  by book  entry)  to each  Holder  a new Note  equal in
principal amount to any unpurchased  portion of the Notes surrendered;  PROVIDED
THAT each such new Note shall be in a principal  amount of $1,000 or an integral
multiple  thereof.  Any Notes not so accepted  shall be  promptly  mailed by the
Company to the Holders  thereof.  For purposes of this SECTION 4.13, the Trustee
shall act as the Paying Agent.

            Any amounts  remaining  after the  purchase  of Notes  pursuant to a
Change of Control Offer shall be returned by the Trustee to the Company.

            Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary contained herein,  neither
the Board of  Directors  of the Company nor the Trustee may waive the  Company's
obligation to offer to purchase the Notes pursuant to this SECTION 4.13.

            The Company shall comply with the  requirements  of Rule 14e-1 under
the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the
extent  such  laws  and  regulations  are  applicable  in  connection  with  the
repurchase  of Notes  pursuant to a Change of Control  Offer.  To the extent the
provisions of any securities  laws or  regulations  conflict with the provisions
under this SECTION 4.13, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities
laws and  regulations  and shall not be deemed to have breached its  obligations
under this SECTION 4.13 by virtue thereof.

            The Company  shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer
upon a Change of Control if a third party  makes the Change of Control  Offer in
the manner,  at the times and otherwise in compliance  with the  requirements of
this SECTION 4.13 and  purchases  all Notes  validly  tendered and not withdrawn
under such Change of Control Offer.

            SECTION 4.14. CHANGE OF CONTROL MAKE-WHOLE PAYMENT.

            In the event that a Change of Control  shall occur in which at least
ninety percent (90%) of the  consideration  received by the Company,  any of the
Company's  Subsidiaries  and/or the holders of the  Company's  Capital  Stock in
connection  with  such  Change  of  Control  is in the  form  of  cash  or  cash
equivalents  (a "QUALIFYING  CHANGE OF CONTROL"),  any Holder that elects not to
tender its Notes in the related Change of Control Offer pursuant to SECTION 4.13

                                      -39-

shall be entitled to receive a payment from the Company,  on the related  Change
of Control  Payment  Date,  in an amount  (the  "CHANGE  OF  CONTROL  MAKE-WHOLE
PREMIUM") equal to the Applicable Change of Control Make-Whole Premium Amount.

            In connection with a Qualifying Change of Control Offer, the Company
will pay the Change of Control  Make-Whole  Premium in the form of consideration
into which the  Common  Stock  were  converted,  exchange  or  acquired  in such
Qualifying Change of Control (provided, that, the Company shall pay cash in lieu
of  fractional  interests  in  any  security  or  other  property  delivered  in
connection  with such  Qualifying  Change of Control).  If the holders of Common
Stock  receive or have the right to receive more than one form of  consideration
in connection with such Qualifying Change of Control,  then, for the purposes of
the  foregoing,  the  forms of  consideration  in which the  Change  of  Control
Make-Whole  Premium will be paid will be in proportion  to the relative  values,
determined  in accordance  with the next  paragraph,  of the different  forms of
consideration  paid to the  holders  of  Common  Stock in  connection  with such
Qualifying Change of Control.

            The value of such  consideration  to be  delivered  in  respect of a
Change of Control Make-Whole Premium will be calculated as follows:

                        (1)  securities  that  are  traded  on a  United  States
            national securities exchange or approved for quotation on the Nasdaq
            National Market or any similar system of automated  dissemination of
            quotations of securities prices will be valued based on ninety eight
            percent (98%) of the average Last Reported Bid Price of Common Stock
            for  the  ten  (10)  Trading  Days up to,  but  not  including,  the
            repurchase date;

                        (2) other  securities,  assets or  property  (other than
            cash)  will be valued  based on ninety  eight  percent  (98%) of the
            average  of the fair  market  value of such  securities,  assets  or
            property   (other  than  cash)  as  determined  by  two  independent
            nationally-recognized banks selected by the Trustee (in consultation
            with the Company); and

                        (3) cash will be valued at one hundred percent (100%).

            SECTION 4.15. LIMITATION ON ASSET SALES.

            From and after the Issue Date until the  occurrence  of the  Trigger
Event,  the Company  will not,  and will not permit any of its  Subsidiaries  to
consummate any Transfer of the Raceway Land. From and after the Issue Date until
the occurrence of the Trigger  Event,  the Company will not, and will not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, consummate an Applicable Asset Sale unless:

                        (1) the  Company or the  applicable  Subsidiary,  as the
            case may be, receives  consideration  at the time of such Applicable
            Asset  Sale at least  equal to the Fair  Market  Value of the assets
            sold or otherwise disposed;

                        (2) at least 85% of the  consideration  received  by the
            Company or the Subsidiary,  as the case may be, from such Applicable
            Asset  Sale  is in the  form of  cash  or  Cash  Equivalents  and is
            received at the time of such  disposition;  PROVIDED that the amount
            of any liabilities (as shown on the most recent  applicable  balance
            sheet) of the Company or such  Subsidiary  (other  than  liabilities
            that are by their terms  subordinated to the Notes) that are assumed
            by the  transferee of any such assets shall be deemed to be cash for
            purposes of this  provision so long as the documents  governing such
            liabilities provide that there is no further recourse to the Company
            or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to such liabilities; and

                                      -40-

                        (3) upon consummation of such Applicable Asset Sale, the
            Company shall apply, or cause such Guarantor to apply,  the Net Cash
            Proceeds  relating to such Applicable  Asset Sale within eighty nine
            (89) days of receipt thereof to make an investment in properties and
            assets that replace the  properties  or assets that were the subject
            of such Applicable  Asset Sale or in any other properties and assets
            that will be used,  or  Capital  Stock of a Person  engaged,  in the
            business of the Company and the  Guarantors as existing on the Issue
            Date  or in  businesses  reasonably  related  thereto  ("REPLACEMENT
            ASSETS").

            Within ninety (90) days after an Applicable Asset Sale (each, a "NET
PROCEEDS OFFER TRIGGER DATE"),  the Net Cash Proceeds from such Applicable Asset
Sale that  shall  have not been  applied on or before  such Net  Proceeds  Offer
Trigger Date as permitted in CLAUSE (3) of the preceding  paragraph (each a "NET
PROCEEDS OFFER  AMOUNT")  shall be applied by the Company or such  Subsidiary to
make an offer to  purchase  (the  "NET  PROCEEDS  OFFER")  on a date  (the  "NET
PROCEEDS OFFER PAYMENT DATE") not less than thirty (30) nor more than forty five
(45) days following the  applicable  Net Proceeds  Offer Trigger Date,  from all
Holders,  the maximum  principal  amount of Notes that may be purchased with the
Net  Proceeds  Offer  Amount at a price  equal to 100% of the  principal  amount
thereof,  plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated  Damages  thereon,  if
any,  to the  date of  purchase;  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER,  that if at any  time  any
non-cash consideration received by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company,
as the case may be, in connection  with any  Applicable  Asset Sale is converted
into or sold or  otherwise  disposed of for cash (other than  interest  received
with  respect  to any such  non-cash  consideration),  then such  conversion  or
disposition  shall be deemed to constitute an Applicable Asset Sale hereunder on
the date of such conversion or disposition, as the case may be, and the Net Cash
Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this covenant.

            The  Company  may defer any Net  Proceeds  Offer  until  there is an
aggregate  unutilized  Net  Proceeds  Offer Amount equal to or in excess of $2.5
million  resulting  from one or more  Applicable  Asset  Sales in which case the
accumulation  of such amount shall  constitute a Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date
(at which time, the entire  unutilized  Net Proceeds Offer Amount,  and not just
the amount in excess of $2.5 million,  shall be applied as required  pursuant to
the immediately preceding  paragraph).  Upon the completion of each Net Proceeds
Offer, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount will be reset at zero.

            In the event of the transfer of  substantially  all (but not all) of
the property and assets of the Company and its  Subsidiaries as an entirety to a
Person in a transaction  permitted under SECTION 5.01 which transaction does not
constitute  a Change of Control,  the  successor  entity shall be deemed to have
sold the  properties  and  assets of the  Company  and its  Subsidiaries  not so
transferred for purposes of this covenant,  and shall comply with the provisions
of this  covenant  with  respect to such  deemed  sale as if it  constituted  an
Applicable Asset Sale. In addition, the Fair Market Value of such properties and
assets of the Company or its  Subsidiaries  deemed to be sold shall be deemed to
be Net Cash Proceeds for purposes of this covenant.

            Each notice of a Net  Proceeds  Offer shall be mailed  first  class,
postage  prepaid,  to the  record  Holders as shown on the  register  of Holders
within twenty (20) days  following the Net Proceeds  Offer Trigger Date,  with a
copy to the  Trustee,  and shall  comply  with the  procedures  set forth in the
Indenture. Upon receiving notice of the Net Proceeds Offer, Holders may elect to
tender  their  Notes in whole or in part in  integral  multiples  of  $1,000  in
exchange  for cash.  To the extent  Holders  properly  tender Notes in an amount
exceeding  the Net Proceeds  Offer  Amount,  Notes of tendering  Holders will be
purchased on a PRO RATA basis (based on amounts tendered).  A Net Proceeds Offer
shall  remain  open for a period of twenty  (20)  Business  Days or such  longer
period as may be required by law.

            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

                                      -41-

extent  such  laws  and  regulations  are  applicable  in  connection  with  the
repurchase  of Notes  pursuant to a Net Proceeds  Offer.  To the extent that the
provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of
this SECTION 4.15, the Company shall comply with the applicable  securities laws
and regulations  and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations  under
the provisions of this SECTION 4.15 by virtue of such compliance.

            SECTION 4.16. IMPAIRMENT OF SECURITY INTEREST.

            Prior to the occurrence of the Trigger Event:

                        (1) neither the Company nor any of the  Guarantors  will
            take or omit to take any action  which  would  materially  adversely
            affect or  impair  the Liens in favor of the  Collateral  Agent,  on
            behalf of itself,  the Trustee and the Holders,  with respect to the
            Collateral;

                        (2) neither the Company nor any of the Guarantors  shall
            grant to any  Person,  or permit  any  Person to retain or  maintain
            (other than the Collateral  Agent),  any interest  whatsoever in the
            Collateral other than Permitted Liens;

                        (3) neither the Company nor any of the  Guarantors  will
            enter into,  or permit to exist,  any  agreement  that  requires the
            proceeds  received  from any sale of  Collateral  to be  applied  to
            repay,   redeem,   defease  or  otherwise   acquire  or  retire  any
            Indebtedness  of  any  Person,   other  than  as  permitted  by  the
            Indenture, the Notes and the Collateral Agreements;

                        (4) the Company  shall,  and shall cause each  Guarantor
            to, at their sole cost and  expense,  execute  and  deliver all such
            agreements and  instruments  as the Collateral  Agent or the Trustee
            shall  reasonably  request to more fully or accurately  describe the
            property intended to be Collateral or the obligations intended to be
            secured by the Collateral Agreements; and

                        (5) the Company  shall,  and shall cause each  Guarantor
            to, at their sole cost and expense,  file any such notice filings or
            other  agreements or instruments as may be required under applicable
            law to perfect the Liens created by the Collateral Agreements.

            SECTION 4.17. LIMITATION ON LIENS.

            From and after the Issue Date until the  occurrence  of the  Trigger
Event,  the  Company  will  not,  and  will  not  cause  or  permit  any  of its
Subsidiaries  to,  directly or indirectly,  create,  incur,  assume or permit or
suffer to exist any Liens  (other than  Permitted  Liens) of any kind against or
upon any of the Collateral whether owned on the Issue Date or acquired after the
Issue Date, or any proceeds  therefrom,  or assign or otherwise convey any right
to receive income or profits therefrom.

            SECTION 4.18. REAL ESTATE MORTGAGES AND RECORDINGS.

            The  Company  will,  and will  cause the  Guarantors  to,  use their
respective  best  efforts to, on or prior to April 22, 2005,  provided  that the
Trigger Event shall have not yet occurred,  (i) obtain the Required  Consents to
grant  Liens in favor of the  Trustee  or one or more  Collateral  Agents by the
filing  of a  Mortgage  on (a) the fee  interest  in the  232  acres  of land in

"INITIAL PREMISES"),  which Mortgage shall be substantially in the form attached
hereto  as  EXHIBIT  F and (b) each  other  fee  interest  in any real  property
(together  with  the  Initial  Premises,   individually  and  collectively,  the
"PREMISES")  that is either owned by the Company or any of the  Guarantors as of
April 22, 2005 or acquired  by the Company or any of the  Guarantors  after such
date,  (ii)  deliver  to a  Collateral  Agent  or  the  Trustee,  as  mortgagee,
fully-executed  counterparts  of Mortgages,  duly executed by the Company or the
applicable Guarantor,  together with evidence of the completion (or satisfactory

                                      -42-

arrangements for the completion), of all recordings and filings of such Mortgage
as may be necessary or desirable,  to create a valid, perfected Lien, subject to
Permitted Liens,  against the Premises  purported to be covered  thereby;  (iii)
will deliver to a Collateral  Agent or the Trustee  mortgagee's  title insurance

            The Company will use its best efforts to deliver all items  required

            actions as may be required by applicable  law to perfect or continue
            the perfection of the Lien created under the  Collateral  Agreements
            on the Collateral owned by or transferred to the surviving entity;

            (2)  immediately  after giving  effect to such  transaction  and the
assumption  contemplated by CLAUSE (1)(b)(y) above  (including  giving effect to
any  Indebtedness  and  Acquired  Indebtedness  incurred  or  anticipated  to be
incurred  and  any  Lien  granted  in  connection  with  or in  respect  of such
transaction),  no  Default  or  Event  of  Default  shall  have  occurred  or be
continuing;

            (3)  immediately  after giving effect to such  transaction  on a pro
forma basis and the assumption contemplated by CLAUSE (1)(b)(y) above (including
giving  effect  to  any  Indebtedness  and  Acquired  Indebtedness  incurred  or
anticipated to be incurred in connection with such transaction),  the Company or
such Surviving  Entity,  as the case may be, (a) shall have a  Consolidated  Net
Worth at least equal to the  Consolidated  Net Worth of the Company  immediately
prior to such  transaction  and (b)  shall  be able to  incur at least  $1.00 of
additional  Indebtedness (other than Permitted  Indebtedness) in compliance with

            (4) the Company or the Surviving  Entity,  as the case may be, shall
have  delivered  to the  Trustee  an  Officers'  Certificate  and an  Opinion of
Counsel,  each  stating  that  such  consolidation,  merger,  sale,  assignment,

lease or transfer  is made shall  succeed to, and be  substituted  for,  and may
exercise  every right and power of, the  Company  under this  Indenture  and the
Notes with the same effect as if such  surviving  entity had been named as such.
Upon such substitution,  the Company and any Guarantors that remain Subsidiaries
of the Company shall be released from this Indenture and the Notes.

                                  ARTICLE SIX

                              DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

            SECTION 6.01. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

      interest and Liquidated  Damages, if any, on any Notes or any other amount
      (other than principal for the Notes) when the same becomes due and payable
      and the default continues for a period of thirty (30) days;

            (2) the Company or any  Guarantor  fails to pay the principal on any

      purchase  Notes  tendered on the Optional Put Date or pursuant to a Change
      of Control Offer or a Net Proceeds Offer);

            (3) a default  occurs in the  observance or performance of any other

      of the  principal  of, or  premium,  if any,  or  interest  or  Liquidated
      Damages,  if any, on any Note) or any Collateral  Agreement  which default
      continues  for a period of thirty  (30) days  after the  Company  receives
      written notice  specifying the default (and demanding that such default be
      remedied)  from  the  Trustee  or  the  Holders  of at  least  25%  of the
      outstanding principal amount of the Notes (except in the case of a default
      with respect to SECTION  5.01,  which will  constitute an Event of Default
      with  such  notice   requirement   but  without   such   passage  of  time
      requirement);

            (4) the  Company  or any of its  Subsidiaries  fails to pay at final
      stated  maturity  (giving effect to any  applicable  grace periods and any
      extensions  thereof)  the  principal  amount  of any  Indebtedness  of the
      Company  or any of its  Subsidiaries,  or the  acceleration  of the  final
      stated  maturity  of any  such  Indebtedness  (which  acceleration  is not
      rescinded,  annulled or otherwise  cured within  twenty (20) days from the
      date  of  acceleration)   if  the  aggregate   principal  amount  of  such
      Indebtedness,  together  with  the  principal  amount  of any  other  such
      Indebtedness  in default for failure to pay principal at final maturity or
      which has been  accelerated (in each case with respect to which the 20-day
      period described above has elapsed),  aggregates $5 million or more at any
      time;

            (5) one or more  judgments  in an  aggregate  amount in excess of $5
      million  (which are not  covered by a reputable  and  solvent  third party
      insurer as to which such insurer has not disclaimed  coverage)  shall have
      been  rendered  against  the Company or any of its  Subsidiaries  and such
      judgments  remain  undischarged,  unpaid or unstayed for a period of sixty
      (60)  days  after   such   judgment   or   judgments   become   final  and
      non-appealable;

            (6) the  Company  or any  Significant  Subsidiary  (A)  commences  a

      takes any corporate action to authorize or effect any of the foregoing;

                                      -45-

            (7) a court of competent  jurisdiction enters a judgment,  decree or
      order for relief in respect of the Company or any  Significant  Subsidiary
      in an  involuntary  case or proceeding  under any Bankruptcy  Code,  which
      shall (A) approve as  properly  filed a petition  seeking  reorganization,
      arrangement,  adjustment or  composition  in respect of the Company or any
      Significant  Subsidiary,  (B)  appoint a  Custodian  of the Company or any
      Significant  Subsidiary  or for  substantially  all of its property or (C)
      order the  winding-up or  liquidation  of its affairs;  and such judgment,
      decree or order shall remain  unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty
      (60) consecutive days;

            (8) prior to the  occurrence of the Trigger  Event,  any  Collateral
      Agreement  at any time for any reason  shall cease to be in full force and
      effect,  or shall cease to grant the Collateral  Agent the Liens,  rights,
      powers and  privileges  purported to be created  thereby,  superior to and
      prior to the  rights  of all  third  Persons  other  than the  holders  of
      Permitted  Liens  and  subject  to no  other  Liens  except  as  expressly
      permitted by the applicable Collateral Agreement, or any of the Collateral
      Agreements is declared null and void;

            (9) the Company or any of the  Guarantors,  directly or  indirectly,
      contest in any  manner  the  effectiveness,  validity,  binding  nature or
      enforceability of any Collateral Agreement;

            (10) any Guarantee of a Guarantor  that is a Significant  Subsidiary
      ceases to be in full force and effect or any Guarantee of a Guarantor that
      is  a  Significant  Subsidiary  is  declared  to  be  null  and  void  and
      unenforceable  or any  Guarantee  of a  Guarantor  that  is a  Significant
      Subsidiary is found to be invalid or any  Guarantor  that is a Significant
      Subsidiary  denies its liability under its Guarantee (other than by reason
      of the release of such Guarantor in accordance with the terms hereof); or

            (11) the failure by the Company to deliver  Common  Shares,  cash or
      other  property  upon  conversion  of the  Notes  as  required  under  the
      Indenture and such failure continues for a period of 10 days.

            SECTION 6.02. ACCELERATION.

            (a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified
in SECTIONS 6.01(6) or (7) above with respect to the Company) shall occur and be
continuing  and has not been waived,  the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25%
in  principal  amount of  outstanding  Notes may  declare the  principal  of and
premium,  if any,  accrued interest and Liquidated  Damages,  if any, on all the
Notes, to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee
specifying  the  respective  Event  of  Default  and  that  it is a  "notice  of
acceleration" (the "ACCELERATION NOTICE"), and the same shall become immediately
due and payable.

            (b) If an Event of  Default  specified  in  SECTIONS  6.01(6) or (7)
above with  respect to the  Company  occurs and is  continuing,  then all unpaid
principal  of,  and  premium,  if any,  and  accrued  and  unpaid  interest  and
Liquidated Damages, if any, on all of the outstanding Notes, shall automatically
become and be immediately  due and payable  without any declaration or other act
on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

            (c) At any time after a declaration of acceleration  with respect to
the Notes as described  in SECTION  6.02(a) or (b), the Holders of a majority in
principal  amount of the Notes may rescind and cancel such  declaration  and its
consequences:  (1) if the  rescission  would not  conflict  with any judgment or
decree;  (2) if all existing  Events of Default have been cured or waived except
nonpayment of principal,  premium,  if any, interest or Liquidated  Damages,  if

                                      -46-

any, that has become due solely because of the  acceleration;  (3) to the extent
the payment of such  interest is lawful,  interest  on overdue  installments  of
interest and overdue principal and premium,  if any, and Liquidated  Damages, if
any,  which has become due otherwise than by such  declaration of  acceleration,
has  been  paid;  (4) if  the  Company  has  paid  the  Trustee  its  reasonable
compensation  and  reimbursed  the Trustee for its expenses,  disbursements  and
advances;  and (5) in the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of  Default of
the type  described  in SECTION  6.01(8),  the  Trustee  shall have  received an
Officers'  Certificate  and an Opinion of Counsel that such Event of Default has
been cured or waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent  Default or
impair any right consequent thereto.

            SECTION 6.03. OTHER REMEDIES.

            If an Event of Default  occurs and is  continuing,  the  Trustee may
pursue any  available  remedy by  proceeding  at law or in equity to collect the
payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes or to enforce
the performance of any provision of the Notes,  this  Indenture,  any Collateral
Agreement or any Guarantee.

            The Trustee or the Collateral  Agent 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,  the  Collateral  Agent or any
Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall
not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or  acquiescence in the
Event of Default.  No remedy is exclusive  of any other  remedy.  All  available
remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

            SECTION 6.04. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

            Subject to SECTIONS  2.09,  6.07 and 9.02, The Holders of a majority
in  principal  amount of the Notes may waive any  existing  Default  or Event of
Default,  and its  consequences,  except  (other  than as  provided  in  SECTION
6.02(c))  a default in the  payment  of the  principal  of or  premium,  if any,
interest or Liquidated Damages, if any, on any Notes or in respect of a covenant
or provision  which under this Indenture  cannot be modified or amended  without
the consent of the Holder of each Note then outstanding. When a Default or Event
of Default is waived, it is cured and ceases.

            SECTION 6.05. CONTROL BY MAJORITY.

            Subject to SECTION  2.09,  the  Holders of a majority  in  principal
amount  of the  outstanding  Notes may  direct  the  time,  method  and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy  available to the Trustee or exercising
any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, including,  without limitation, any
remedies  provided  for in SECTION  6.03.  Subject to SECTION  7.01 and 7.02(D),
however,  the Trustee may refuse to follow any request,  order or direction that
the Trustee reasonably  believes conflicts with any law or this Indenture,  that
the  Trustee  determines  may be unduly  prejudicial  to the  rights of  another
Holder, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability; PROVIDED THAT the
Trustee may take any other  action  deemed  proper by the  Trustee  which is not
inconsistent with such request, order or direction.

            SECTION 6.06. LIMITATION ON SUITS.

            A Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or
the Notes unless:

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

                                      -47-

            (2) subject to SECTION  2.09,  Holders of at least 25% in  principal
      amount of the  outstanding  Notes make a written request to the Trustee to
      institute proceedings in respect of that Event of Default;

            (3)  such  Holders  offer  to  the  Trustee  security  or  indemnity
      reasonably  satisfactory  to the Trustee  against any loss,  liability  or
      expense  to  be  incurred  in  compliance  with  such  request,  order  or
      direction;

            (4) the Trustee  does not comply with the request  within sixty (60)
      days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and

            (5) during  such sixty (60) day period the  Holders of a majority in
      principal  amount  of the  outstanding  Notes do not give  the  Trustee  a
      direction which, in the opinion of the Trustee,  is inconsistent  with the
      request.

            The foregoing  limitations shall not apply to a suit instituted by a
Holder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of,  premium,  if any, or
interest  on such  Note on or after the  respective  due dates set forth in such
Note (including upon acceleration  thereof) or the institution of any proceeding
with  respect to this  Indenture  or any  remedy  hereunder,  including  without
limitation  acceleration,  by the Holders of a majority in  principal  amount of
outstanding Notes;  PROVIDED THAT upon institution of any proceeding or exercise
of any remedy, such Holders provide the Trustee with prompt notice thereof.

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

            SECTION 6.07. RIGHTS OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PAYMENT.

            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture,  the right of
any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium,  if any, and interest on
a Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note, or to bring
suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective  dates,
shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

            SECTION 6.08. COLLECTION SUIT BY TRUSTEE OR COLLATERAL AGENT.

            If an Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium,  if any,
or interest or Liquidated  Damages,  if any, specified in SECTION 6.01(1) or (2)
occurs and is  continuing,  the  Trustee  and the  Collateral  Agent may recover
judgment (i) in its own name and (ii)(x) in the case of the Trustee,  as trustee
of an express trust or (y) in the case of the  Collateral  Agent,  as collateral
agent on behalf of each of the Secured Parties, in each case against the Company
or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal, premium, if
any, and accrued  interest and Liquidated  Damages,  if any,  remaining  unpaid,
together with interest on overdue  principal  and, to the extent that payment of
such  interest is lawful,  interest on overdue  installments  of interest at the
rate set forth in SECTION 4.01 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,  the
Collateral Agent and their  respective  agents and counsel and any other amounts
due the Trustee under the Collateral Agreements and SECTION 7.07.

                                      -48-

            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,
taxes,  disbursements  and advances of the Trustee,  its agents and counsel) and
the Holders allowed in any judicial  proceedings  relating to the Company or any
other obligor upon the Notes, any of their respective  creditors or any of their
respective  property and shall be entitled and  empowered to collect and receive
any monies or other  property  payable or  deliverable on any such claims and to
distribute  the same,  and any  Custodian in any such  judicial  proceedings  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,  taxes,  disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
agents  and  counsel,   and  any  other   amounts  due  the  Trustee  under  the
Intercreditor  Agreement,  the  Collateral  Agreements  and  SECTION  7.07.  The
Company's  payment  obligations  under  this  SECTION  6.9 shall be  secured  in
accordance with the provisions of SECTION 7.07.  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  thereof,  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  or the  Collateral  Agent  collects  any  money  or
property  pursuant to this  ARTICLE  SIX, it shall,  subject to the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreement, pay out the money in the following order:

            First: to the Trustee,  the Collateral  Agent,  the Paying Agent and
the  Registrar  for amounts due under  SECTION  7.07  (including  payment of all
compensation  expense,  all  liabilities  incurred and all advances  made by the
Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection);

            Second:  if the  Holders  are forced to proceed  against the Company
directly without the Trustee, to Holders for their collection costs;

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

            Fourth:  to the Company or any other obligor on the Notes,  as their
interests may appear, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

            The Trustee, upon prior notice to the Company, may fix a record date
and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this SECTION 6.10.

            SECTION 6.11. UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

            All  parties  to  this  Indenture  agree,  and  each  Holder  by its
acceptance of its Note shall be deemed to have agreed,  that 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  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

                                      -49-

claims or defenses made by the party litigant.  This SECTION 6.11 does not apply
to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to SECTION 6.07, or a suit
by a Holder or Holders of more than 10% in principal  amount of the  outstanding
Notes.

            SECTION 6.12. RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

            If the  Trustee or any  Holder has  instituted  any  proceedings  to
enforce any right or remedy under this  Indenture and such  proceeding  has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason,  or has been  determined  adversely to
the  Trustee or to such  Holder,  then and in every  such  case,  subject to any
determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall
be restored  severally and respectively to their former positions  hereunder and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue
as though no such proceeding has been instituted.

                                     TRUSTEE

            SECTION 7.01. DUTIES OF TRUSTEE.

            The duties and  responsibilities of the Trustee shall be as provided
by the TIA and as set forth herein.

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

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

            (1) the  duties of the  Trustee  shall be  determined  solely by the
      express  provisions  of this  Indenture  and the Trustee need perform only
      those  duties  as are  specifically  set forth in this  Indenture  and the
      Collateral  Agreements and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in
      or read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

            (2) 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 and
      the  Collateral  Agreements;  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER,  in  case  of  any  such
      certificates or opinions  furnished to the Trustee which by the provisions
      hereof are  furnished  to the  Trustee,  the  Trustee  shall  examine  the
      certificates and opinions to determine  whether or not they conform to the
      requirements of this Indenture and the Collateral Agreements.

            (c) Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary herein contained,  the
Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own
negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

            (1) this  paragraph  does not limit the effect of  PARAGRAPH  (b) of
      this SECTION 7.01;

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

                                      -50-

            (3) 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
      received by it pursuant to SECTION 6.06.

            (d) No  provision  of this  Indenture  shall  require the Trustee to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any liability. The Trustee shall
be under no  obligation  to exercise  of any of its rights or powers  under this
Indenture,  the  Intercreditor  Agreement or the  Collateral  Agreements  at the
request of any Holders  unless  such Holder has offered to the Trustee  security
and indemnity  satisfactory to the Trustee against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it.

            (e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of
this  Indenture  that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to PARAGRAPHS
(a), (b), (c) and (d) of this SECTION 7.01.

            (f) The  Trustee  shall not be liable for  interest  on any money or
assets  received  by it except as the  Trustee  may  agree in  writing  with the
Company.  Money and assets held in trust by the Trustee  need not be  segregated
from other funds or assets held by the Trustee except to the extent  required by
law.

            (g) The  Trustee  shall not be liable for the failure to perform its
duties and  obligations  hereunder to the extent such failure is directly caused
by the failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder.

            SECTION 7.02. RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

            Subject to SECTION 7.01:

            (a) The Trustee may  conclusively  rely and shall be fully protected
in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution,  certificate, statement
instrument,  opinion,  report, request direction,  consent, order, bond, note or
other paper or document  believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper  Person.  The Trustee need not  investigate  any fact or
matter stated in the document.

            (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting,  it may consult
with counsel and may require an Officers'  Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel,
or both,  which shall conform to SECTIONS 13.04 and 13.05. The Trustee shall not
be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in  reliance on
such  Officers'  Certificate  or Opinion of Counsel.  The written  advice of the
Trustee's  counsel  or any  Opinion  of  Counsel  shall  be  full  and  complete
authorization  and  protection  from  liability in respect of any action  taken,
suffered  or  omitted by the  Trustee  hereunder  in good faith and in  reliance
thereon.

            (c) The Trustee  shall not be bound to make any  investigation  into
the  facts  or  matters  stated  in  any  resolution,   certificate,  statement,
instrument,   opinion,  notice,  request,   direction,   consent,  order,  bond,
debenture,  or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion,  may
make such further inquiry or investigation  into such facts or matters as it may
see fit and, if the Trustee  shall  determine  to make such  further  inquiry or
investigation,  it shall be entitled,  upon reasonable notice to the Company, to
examine the books,  records and premises of the Company,  personally or by agent
or attorney and to consult with the officers and representatives of the Company,
including the Company's  accountants and attorneys.  Except as expressly  stated
herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Trustee have any responsibility to
ascertain  whether  there  has  been  compliance  with any of the  covenants  or
provisions of ARTICLES FOUR or FIVE.

            (d) The Trustee  shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights  or  powers  vested  in it by this  Indenture  at the  request,  order or
direction of any of the Holders  pursuant to the  provisions  of this  Indenture

                                      -51-

unless such  Holders  shall have  offered to the Trustee  security or  indemnity
reasonably   satisfactory  to  the  Trustee  against  the  costs,  expenses  and
liabilities  which may be incurred by it in compliance with such request,  order
or direction.

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

            (f) Unless otherwise  specifically  provided in this Indenture,  any
demand,  request,  direction or notice from the Company  shall be  sufficient if
signed by an Officer of the Company and any resolution of the Board of Directors
shall be  sufficient if evidenced by a copy of such  resolution  certified by an
Officer of the Company to have been duly adopted and in full force and effect on
the date hereof.

            (g) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform  any  duties  hereunder  either  directly  or by or  through  agents  or
attorneys and shall not be responsible for any willful  misconduct or negligence
on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.

            (h) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action  taken,  suffered
or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and  reasonably  believed by it to be
authorized or within the discretion,  rights or powers conferred upon it by this
Indenture.

            (i) The  Trustee  shall not be deemed to have  notice or be  charged
with  knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless the Trustee shall have
received from the Company,  any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes or
from any Holder written notice thereof at its address set forth in SECTION 13.02
hereof, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture.

            (j) The rights,  privileges,  protections,  immunities  and benefits
given  to  the  Trustee,   including,   without  limitation,  its  right  to  be
indemnified,  are extended to, and shall be enforceable  by, the Trustee in each
of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed
to act hereunder.

            (k) The Trustee may request  that the Company  deliver an  Officers'
Certificate  setting  forth the names of  individuals  and/or titles of officers
authorized at such time to take specified  actions  pursuant to this  Indenture,
which Officers'  Certificate may be signed by any persons  authorized to sign an
Officers'  Certificate,  including any person  specified as so authorized in any
such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

            (l) The  permissive  right of the  Trustee to take any action  under
this Indenture or any Collateral  Agreements shall not be construed as a duty to
so act.

            SECTION 7.03. INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

            The Trustee in its  individual or any other  capacity may become the
owner  or  pledgee  of Notes  and may  otherwise  deal  with  the  Company,  any
Subsidiary of the Company or their respective Affiliates with the same rights it
would have if it were not  Trustee.  Any Agent may do the same with like rights.
However,  the Trustee must comply with SECTIONS 7.10 and 7.11 of this Indenture,
and the Trustee is subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311.

                                      -52-

            SECTION 7.04. TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER.

            The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity,  adequacy or
sufficiency of this Indenture,  the Notes,  the  Intercreditor  Agreement or the
Collateral Agreements,  and it shall not be accountable for the Company's use of
the proceeds from the Notes,  and it shall not be responsible  for any statement
of the Company in this Indenture,  the Notes, the Intercreditor  Agreement,  the
Collateral  Agreements or any other documents in connection with the issuance of
the Notes other than the Trustee's certificate of authentication, which shall be
taken  as  the   statements  of  the  Company,   and  the  Trustee   assumes  no
responsibility for their correctness.

            Beyond the exercise of  reasonable  care in the custody  thereof and
the  fulfillment  of its  obligations  under this  Indenture and the  Collateral
Documents, the Trustee shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession
or control or in the  possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income
thereon  or as to  preservation  of rights  against  prior  parties or any other
rights  pertaining  thereto.  The  Trustee  shall be  deemed  to have  exercised
reasonable  care in the  custody  of the  Collateral  in its  possession  if the
Collateral is accorded  treatment  substantially  equal to that which it accords
its own property.

            The  Trustee  makes  no  representations  as to  and  shall  not  be
responsible for the existence,  genuineness,  value, sufficiency or condition of
any of the Collateral or as to the security  afforded or intended to be afforded
thereby, hereby or by any Collateral Document, or for the validity,  perfection,
priority  or  enforceability  of the Liens or security  interests  in any of the
Collateral  created  or  intended  to  be  created  by  any  of  the  Collateral
Agreements,  whether  impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or
omission  to act on its part  hereunder,  except to the  extent  such  action or
omission  constitutes gross negligence or willful  misconduct on the part of the
Trustee,  for the validity or  sufficiency  of the  Collateral,  any  Collateral
Agreements  or any  agreement or  assignment  contained in any thereof,  for the
validity of the title of the Company or any  Guarantor  to the  Collateral,  for
insuring the  Collateral or for the payment of taxes,  charges,  assessments  or
Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the  maintenance of the Collateral.
The Trustee shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the  performance or
observance  of any of the  terms  of  this  Indenture  or any  other  Collateral
Agreement  by the Company or any other  Person that is a party  thereto or bound
thereby.

            SECTION 7.05. NOTICE OF DEFAULT.

            If a Default or an Event of Default  occurs and is continuing and if
a Trust  Officer has actual  knowledge or has received  written  notice from the
Company or any Holder, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder, with a copy to the
Company,  notice of the  Default or Event of  Default  within  thirty  (30) days
thereof.  Except in the case of a Default  or an Event of  Default in payment of
principal  of,  premium,  if  any,  or  interest  on,  any  Note,  including  an
accelerated  payment  and the  failure to make  payment on the Change of Control
Payment Date pursuant to a Change of Control Offer and,  except in the case of a
failure to comply with ARTICLE FIVE,  the Trustee may withhold the notice if and
so long as its  Board of  Directors,  the  executive  committee  of its Board of
Directors or a committee of its  directors  and/or Trust  Officers in good faith
determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders.

            SECTION 7.06. REPORTS BY TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS.

            Within sixty (60) days after each August 1, beginning with August 1,
2004, the Trustee shall,  to the extent that any of the events  described in TIA
Section 313(a) occurred  within the previous  twelve months,  but not otherwise,
mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such date that  complies with TIA
Section 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Sections 313(b) and (c).

                                      -53-

            A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be
mailed to the  Company  and filed by the Company  with the  Commission  and each
stock exchange or market, if any, on which the Notes are listed or quoted.

            The Company  shall  promptly  notify the Trustee if the Notes become
listed or quoted on any stock  exchange or market and the Trustee  shall  comply
with TIA Section 313(d).

            SECTION 7.07. COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

            The Company  shall pay to the Trustee,  the  Collateral  Agent,  the
Paying Agent and the Registrar (each an  "INDEMNIFIED  PARTY") from time to time
compensation for their respective services as Trustee,  Collateral Agent, Paying
Agent or Registrar, as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The
Trustee's  compensation  shall not be  limited by any law on  compensation  of a
trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse each Indemnified  Party
upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it in
connection  with the  performance of its duties under,  as the case may be, this
Indenture,  the  Collateral  Agreements  or the  Intercreditor  Agreement.  Such
expenses  shall  include  the  reasonable  fees  and  expenses  of  each of such
Indemnified Party's agents and counsel.

            The Company and the Guarantors  hereby  indemnify  each  Indemnified
Party and its agents,  employees,  stockholders  and directors and officers for,
and  holds  each of them  harmless  against,  any and  all  loss,  cost,  claim,
liability or expense  (including  taxes) incurred by any of them except for such
actions to the extent caused by any gross  negligence  or willful  misconduct on
the part of such  Indemnified  Party,  arising out of or in connection with this
Indenture,  the Collateral  Agreements or the  Intercreditor  Agreement,  or the
administration  of this trust,  including the  reasonable  costs and expenses of
enforcing this Indenture  against the Company  (including this SECTION 7.07) and
defending  themselves  against any claim or  liability  in  connection  with the
exercise or  performance of any of their rights,  powers or duties  hereunder or
thereunder (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel).  The Trustee
shall notify the Company  promptly of any claim asserted  against an Indemnified
Party for which such Indemnified  Party has advised the Trustee that it may seek
indemnity  hereunder  or  under  the  Collateral   Agreements  or  Intercreditor
Agreement. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the
Company  of  its  obligations   hereunder.   At  the  Indemnified  Party's  sole
discretion,  the Company shall defend the claim and the Indemnified  Party shall
cooperate and may participate in the defense;  PROVIDED THAT any settlement of a
claim shall be approved in writing by the Indemnified Party. Alternatively,  the
Indemnified  Party may at its option have  separate  counsel of its own choosing
and the Company  shall pay the  reasonable  fees and  expenses of such  counsel;
PROVIDED THAT the Company shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if
it assumes the Indemnified  Party's defense and there is no conflict of interest
between the Company and the Indemnified Party in connection with such defense as
reasonably determined by the Indemnified Party. The Company need not pay for any
settlement  made  without  its  written  consent,  which  consent  shall  not be
unreasonably withheld.

            To secure the Company's  payment  obligations  in this SECTION 7.07,
each  Indemnified  Party shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all  Collateral
held or collected by the Trustee,  in its capacity as Trustee,  except assets or
money held in trust to pay  principal of or interest on  particular  Notes which
have been called for redemption.

            When an Indemnified  Party incurs expenses or renders services after
an  Event  of  Default  specified  in  SECTION  6.01(6)  occurs,  such  expenses
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation
for such services are intended to constitute  expenses of  administration  under
any Bankruptcy Code.

                                      -54-

            The obligations of the Company under this SECTION 7.07 shall survive
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture,  termination of the Collateral
Agreements or the  Intercreditor  Agreement or the resignation or removal of the
Trustee.

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

            SECTION 7.08. REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE.

            The Trustee may resign by so notifying  the Company.  The Holders of
at least  seventy five (75%) percent of the  aggregate  principal  amount of the
outstanding  Notes may remove the  Trustee by so  notifying  the Company and the
Trustee in writing and may appoint a successor Trustee.  The Company, by a Board
Resolution, may remove the Trustee if:

            (1) the Trustee fails to comply with SECTION 7.10;

            (2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

            (3) a receiver or other public  officer  takes charge of the Trustee
      or its property; or

            (4) the Trustee  becomes  incapable  of acting  with  respect to the
      Notes.

            If the Trustee  resigns or is removed or if a vacancy  exists in the
office of Trustee  for any  reason,  the  Company  shall  notify  each Holder in
writing of such event and shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one
year after the  successor  Trustee  takes  office,  the Holders of a majority in
aggregate  principal  amount of the  outstanding  Notes may  appoint a successor
Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

            A  successor  Trustee  shall  deliver  a written  acceptance  of its
appointment  to the  retiring  Trustee  and to the  Company  and  thereupon  the
resignation or removal of the retiring  Trustee shall become  effective and such
successor  Trustee,  without any further act, deed or  conveyance,  shall become
vested with all rights,  powers,  trusts, duties and obligations of the retiring
Trustee and shall duly assign,  transfer and deliver to such  successor  Trustee
all property and money held by such Trustee so ceasing to act hereunder  subject
nevertheless to its lien, if any,  provided for in SECTION 7.07. Upon request of
the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall at the expense
of the Company  and upon  payment of the  charges of the  Trustee  then  unpaid,
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the
rights,  powers  and trusts of the  retiring  Trustee,  and shall  duly  assign,
transfer  and deliver to such  successor  Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee  hereunder.  Upon request of any such successor Trustee or
the  Holders of a majority  in  aggregate  principal  amount of the  outstanding
Notes,  the Company  shall  execute any and all  instruments  for more fully and
certainly  vesting in and confirming to such successor  Trustee all such rights,
powers and trusts.  Immediately  after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer
all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien
provided in SECTION 7.07,  the  resignation  or removal of the retiring  Trustee
shall become  effective,  and the  successor  Trustee shall have all the rights,
powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.

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

                                      -55-

            If the Trustee  fails to comply with  SECTION  7.10,  any Holder who
satisfies  the  requirements  of TIA Section  310(b) may  petition  any court of
competent  jurisdiction  for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a
successor Trustee.

            The Company shall give notice of any  resignation and any removal of
the  Trustee  and each  appointment  of a  successor  Trustee to all  Holders in
writing.  Each notice shall  include the name of the  successor  Trustee and the
address of its Corporate Trust Office.

            Notwithstanding  any  resignation  or  replacement  of  the  Trustee
pursuant to this SECTION  7.08,  the  Company's  obligations  under SECTION 7.07
shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

            SECTION 7.09. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER, ETC.

            If the  Trustee  consolidates  with,  merges or  converts  into,  or
transfers all or  substantially  all of its corporate trust business to, another
Person,  the resulting,  surviving or transferee  Person without any further act
shall, if such resulting,  surviving or transferee Person is otherwise  eligible
hereunder, be the successor Trustee;  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER, that such Person shall
be otherwise qualified and eligible under this ARTICLE SEVEN.

            In case any Notes have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the
Trustee then in office, any successor by merger,  conversion or consolidation to
such authenticating  Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes
so  authenticated  with the same effect as if such successor  Trustee had itself
authenticated such Notes.

            SECTION 7.10. ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION.

            (a) This  Indenture  shall always have a Trustee who  satisfies  the
requirements  of TIA Sections  310(a)(1),  (2), (3) and (5). The Trustee (or, in
the case of a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related
bank  holding  company)  shall have a combined  capital  and surplus of at least
$50,000,000  as  set  forth  in its  most  recent  published  annual  report  of
condition.  In  addition,  if the  Trustee is a  corporation  included in a bank
holding company system, the Trustee, independently of such bank holding company,
shall meet the capital requirements of TIA Section 310(a)(2).  The Trustee shall
comply with TIA Section 310(b); PROVIDED,  HOWEVER, that there shall be excluded
from the operation of TIA Section  310(b)(1)  any indenture or indentures  under
which other  securities,  or certificates of interest or  participation in other
securities,  of the  Company  are  outstanding  if  the  requirements  for  such
exclusion  set forth in TIA Section  310(b)(1)  are met. The  provisions  of TIA
Section 310 shall apply to the Company, as obligor of the Notes.

            (b) If the Trustee has or acquires a conflicting interest within the
meaning of the TIA, the Trustee shall either  eliminate such interest or resign,
to the extent and in the manner  provided by, and subject to the  provisions of,
the TIA and this Indenture.

            SECTION 7.11. PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.

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

                                      -56-

            SECTION 7.12. TRUSTEE AS COLLATERAL AGENT.

            References to the Trustee in SECTIONS 7.01(F), 7.02, 7.03, 7.04, and
7.07 shall include the Trustee in its role as Collateral Agent and Paying Agent.

            SECTION 7.13. SEPARATE COLLATERAL AGENT.

            (a) As of the Issue Date, the Company and the Trustee hereby appoint
The Bank of New York as the  Collateral  Agent  and The Bank of New York  hereby
accepts such  appointment  and agrees to act and serve in such capacity.  At any
time, for the purpose of meeting the legal  requirements of any  jurisdiction in
which any of the  Collateral  may at the time be  located,  the  Company and the
Trustee shall have the power to appoint one or more separate  collateral  agents
of any such  property,  and to vest,  in such Person or Persons in the  capacity
aforesaid,  any property,  title,  right or power deemed necessary or desirable,
subject to the other provisions of this SECTION 7.13.

            (b) Should any  written  instrument  from the Company be required by
any separate  collateral  agent so appointed  for more fully  confirming to such
Person such property, title, right or power, any and all such instruments shall,
on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company.

            (c) Every separate  collateral  agent shall, to the extent permitted
by law, but to such extent only, be appointed  subject to the  following  terms,
namely:

            (i) The Notes shall be authenticated and delivered,  and all rights,
      powers,  duties and  obligations  hereunder  in respect of the  custody of
      securities,  cash and other  personal  property held by, or required to be
      deposited  or pledged  with,  the Trustee  hereunder,  shall be  exercised
      solely, by the Trustee.

            (ii) The rights,  powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or
      imposed upon the  Collateral  Agent and such  separate  collateral  agent,
      jointly as shall be provided in the  instrument  appointing  such separate
      collateral  agent,  except  to  the  extent  that  under  any  law  of any
      jurisdiction  in  which  any  particular  act  is  to  be  performed,  the
      Collateral  Agent shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act,
      in which  event  such  rights,  powers,  duties and  obligations  shall be
      exercised and performed by such separate collateral agent.

            (iii) The Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing  executed
      by  it,  with  the  concurrence  of  the  Company  evidenced  by  a  Board
      Resolution,   may  accept  the  resignation  of  or  remove  any  separate
      collateral  agent trustee  appointed under this SECTION 7.13, and, in case
      an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall have
      power  to  accept  the  resignation  of,  or  remove,  any  such  separate
      collateral agent without the concurrence of the Company.  Upon the written
      request of the  Trustee,  the  Company  shall join with the Trustee in the
      execution,  delivery and  performance  of all  instruments  and agreements
      necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor
      to any separate  collateral  agent so resigned or removed may be appointed
      in the manner provided in this SECTION 7.13.

            (iv) No separate  collateral  agent  hereunder  shall be  personally
      liable by reason of any act or omission  of the Trustee or the  Collateral
      Agent.

            (v) Any act of Holders  delivered to the  Collateral  Agent shall be
      deemed to have been delivered to each such separate collateral agent.

                                      -57-

            SECTION 7.14. FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO TRUSTEE.

            In any case where  several  matters are required to be certified by,
or covered by an opinion of, any specified  Person, it is not necessary that all
such  matters  be  certified  by, or covered by the  opinion  of,  only one such
Person,  or that they be so certified or covered by only one  document,  but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion  with respect to some matters and one
or more other  Persons as to other  matters  and any such  Person may certify or
give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

            Any  certificate  or opinion of an  Officer  of the  Company  may be
based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion, or
representation  by,  counsel,  unless such Officer knows,  or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or  representations
with respect to the matters upon which his  certificate  or opinion is based are
erroneous.  Any such  certificate  or opinion of  counsel or  representation  by
counsel  may  be  based,  insofar  as it  relates  to  factual  matters,  upon a
certificate or opinion of, or representations  by, an officer or officers of the
Company stating that the information  with respect to such factual matters is in
the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or
opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

            Where any Person is  required  to make,  give or execute two or more
applications,  requests, consents,  certificates,  statements, opinions or other
instruments  under this Indenture,  they may, but need not, be consolidated  and
form one instrument.

accompanied by an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as required by

rendered by the Trustee in connection with this Indenture or the Notes.

satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, all monies then held by any Paying

            From time to time, the Company, the Guarantors,  the Trustee and, if

      Revenue Code of 1986, as amended);

            (3) to provide for the  assumption of the Company's or a Guarantor's

            (4) to make any change that would provide any  additional  rights or

      of any such Holder under this Indenture,  the Notes,  the Guarantees,  the
      Registration Rights Agreement or the Collateral Agreements;

            (5) to allow any  Subsidiary  of the Company or any other  Person to
      guarantee the Notes;

            (6) to release a Guarantor  as permitted  by the  Indenture  and the
      relevant Guarantee;

            (7) if  necessary,  in  connection  with any  addition or release of
      Collateral  permitted or required under the terms of this Indenture or the
      Collateral Agreements;

            (8) to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company;

                                      -59-

      or the  Collateral  Agreements  to any  provision  of the  section  of the
      Offering Circular entitled  "Description of Notes" to the extent that such

so long as such amendment,  modification or supplement does not adversely affect
the rights of any of the Holders in any material respect.

            SECTION 9.02. WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS.

            Subject  to SECTION  6.07,  the  Company  and the  Guarantors,  when
authorized by a Board  Resolution,  and the Trustee or the Collateral  Agent, as
applicable,  together,  with the written  consent of the Holder or Holders of at
least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (subject
to SECTION  2.09),  may amend or  supplement  this  Indenture,  the  Notes,  any
Collateral  Agreement or the  Guarantees  without  notice to any other  Holders.
Subject to SECTION 6.07 and SECTION 2.09, the Holder or Holders of a majority in
aggregate  principal amount of the outstanding Notes may waive compliance by the
Company with any provision of this  Indenture,  any Collateral  Agreement or the
Notes without notice to any other Holder.  However, no amendment,  supplement or
waiver,  including a waiver pursuant to SECTION 6.04,  shall without the consent
of each Holder of each Note affected thereby:

            (1) reduce the principal  amount of Notes whose Holders must consent
      to an amendment,  supplement or waiver of any provision of this  Indenture
      or the Notes;

            (2) reduce the rate of or change or have the effect of changing  the
      time for payment of interest,  including defaulted interest, or Liquidated
      Damages, if any, on any Notes;

            (3) reduce the principal of or change or have the effect of changing
      the fixed maturity of any Notes, or change the date on which any Notes may
      be subject to redemption or reduce the redemption price therefor;

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

            (5) make any change in provisions of this  Indenture  protecting the
      right of each Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium,  if any,
      interest and Liquidated  Damages, if any, on such Note on or after the due
      date  thereof or to bring  suit to enforce  such  payment,  or  permitting
      holders of a majority in  principal  amount of Notes to waive  Defaults or
      Events of Default;

            (6) amend,  change or modify in any material  respect the obligation
      of the Company to make and  consummate a Change of Control Offer after the
      occurrence of a Change of Control or to  repurchase  Notes on the Optional
      Put Date or modify  any of the  provisions  or  definitions  with  respect
      thereto;

                                      -60-

            (7)  release any  Guarantor  from any of its  obligations  under its
      Guarantee or this Indenture otherwise than in accordance with the terms of
      this Indenture;

            (8) impair or adversely  affect the conversion  rights of any Holder
      of Notes;

            (9) modify the  redemption  provisions  of the Indenture in a manner
      adverse to the Holders of the Notes; or

            (10) release all or substantially  all of the Collateral,  except as
      pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and the Collateral Agreements.

            It shall not be necessary  for the consent of the Holders under this
SECTION  9.02  to  approve  the  particular  form  of  any  proposed  amendment,
supplement 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  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 supplemental indenture.

            SECTION 9.03. COMPLIANCE WITH TIA.

            Every amendment,  waiver or supplement of this Indenture, the Notes,
the Collateral Agreements,  the Intercreditor  Agreement or the Guarantees shall
comply with the TIA as then in effect.

            SECTION 9.04. REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS.

            Until an  amendment,  waiver  or  supplement  becomes  effective,  a
consent  to it by a Holder  is a  continuing  consent  by the  Holder  and every
subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as
the consenting Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any
Note. Subject to the following  paragraph,  any such Holder or subsequent Holder
may  revoke  the  consent  as to such  Holder's  Note or portion of such Note by
written notice to the Trustee and the Company  received before the date on which
the  Trustee  and  if  such  amendment,  waiver  or  supplement  relates  to any
Collateral  Agreement,  the Collateral Agent,  receives an Officers' Certificate
certifying  that the  Holders of the  requisite  principal  amount of Notes have
consented  (and  not  theretofore   revoked  such  consent)  to  the  amendment,
supplement or waiver.

            The Company may,  but shall not be  obligated  to, fix a record date
for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment,
supplement or waiver, which record date shall be either (i) at least thirty (30)
days  prior to the first  solicitation  of such  consent or (ii) the date of the
most recent list  furnished to the Trustee  under SECTION 2.05. If a record date
is fixed, then  notwithstanding  the last sentence of the immediately  preceding
paragraph,  those  Persons  who were  Holders at such record date (or their duly
designated  proxies),  and only those  Persons,  shall be entitled to revoke any
consent  previously  given,  whether or not such Persons  continue to be Holders
after such record  date.  No such consent  shall be valid or effective  for more
than ninety (90) days after such record date.

            After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall
bind every  Holder  unless it makes a change  described  in any of  CLAUSES  (1)
through (10) of SECTION 9.02, in which case, the amendment, supplement or waiver
shall  bind  only  each  Holder  of a Note  who has  consented  to it and  every
subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as
the consenting  Holder's Note; PROVIDED THAT any such waiver shall not impair or

                                      -61-

affect the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of,  premium,  if
any, and interest on a Note, on or after the respective  due dates  expressed in
such Note, or to bring suit for the  enforcement of any such payment on or after
such respective dates without the consent of such Holder.

            SECTION 9.05. NOTATION ON OR EXCHANGE OF NOTES.

            If an amendment,  supplement or waiver  changes the terms of a Note,
the  Trustee  may  require  the  Holder of the Note to  deliver  the Note to the
Trustee.  The  Trustee at the  written  direction  of the  Company  may place an
appropriate  notation on the Note about the  changed  terms and return it to the
Holder and the Trustee may place an appropriate  notation on any Note thereafter
authenticated.  Alternatively,  if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the
Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall  authenticate
a new Note that  reflects  the  changed  terms.  Failure to make an  appropriate
notation,  or issue a new Note, shall not affect the validity and effect of such
amendment,  supplement or waiver. Any such notation or exchange shall be made at
the sole  cost and  expense  of the  Company.  Failure  to make the  appropriate
notation  or issue a new Note shall not effect the  validity  and effect of such
amendment, supplement or waiver.

            SECTION 9.06. TRUSTEE TO SIGN AMENDMENTS, ETC.

            The Trustee or the Collateral  Agent,  as applicable,  shall execute
any amendment,  supplement or waiver  authorized  pursuant to this ARTICLE NINE;
PROVIDED THAT the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may, but shall
not be obligated  to,  execute any such  amendment,  supplement  or waiver which
affects the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent,
as  applicable,   under  this  Indenture,   any  Collateral   Agreement  or  the
Intercreditor  Agreement.  The Trustee shall be entitled to receive an indemnity
reasonably  satisfactory  to it and  receive,  and shall be fully  protected  in
relying  upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers'  Certificate  each stating
that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to
this ARTICLE NINE is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.  Such Opinion of
Counsel  shall not be an  expense  of the  Trustee  and shall be paid for by the
Company.

            SECTION  9.07.   CONFORMITY   WITH  TRUST   INDENTURE   ACT.   Every
supplemental  indenture  executed pursuant to this Article Nine shall conform to
the requirements of the TIA as then in effect.

                                  ARTICLE TEN

                                    GUARANTEE

            SECTION 10.01. GUARANTEE.

            Each  Guarantor  hereby  fully,   irrevocably  and  unconditionally,
jointly and severally,  guarantees  (such  guarantee to be referred to herein as
the  "GUARANTEE"),  to each of the Holders and to the Trustee and the Collateral
Agent and their  respective  successors  and assigns that (i) the  principal of,
premium,  if any and interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes shall
be  promptly  paid in full when due,  subject to any  applicable  grace  period,
whether upon  redemption  pursuant to the terms of the Notes, by acceleration or
otherwise,  and interest on the overdue  principal,  if any, and interest on any
interest,  if any, to the extent lawful,  of the Notes and all other obligations
of the Company to the Holders,  the Trustee and the Collateral  Agent hereunder,
thereunder or under any Collateral  Agreement  shall be promptly paid in full or

                                      -62-

performed,  all  in  accordance  with  the  terms  hereof,  thereof  and  of the
Collateral  Agreements;  and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or
renewal of any of the Notes or of any such other obligations,  the same shall be
promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance  with the terms of the
extension or renewal,  subject to any applicable grace period, whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, subject, however, in the case of CLAUSES
(i) and (ii) above, to the limitations set forth in SECTION 10.03. The Guarantee
of each  Guarantor  shall rank  senior in right of  payment to all  subordinated
Indebtedness  of such  Guarantor  and equal in right of  payment  with all other
senior  obligations  of such  Guarantor,  including  borrowings or guarantees of
borrowings  under the Credit  Agreement.  Each Guarantor  hereby agrees that its
obligations  hereunder  shall be  unconditional,  irrespective  of the validity,
regularity  or  enforceability  of the Notes,  this  Indenture,  any  Collateral
Agreement,  the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent
by any of the Holders  with  respect to any  provisions  hereof or thereof,  any
release  of any other  Guarantor,  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 covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged
except by complete  performance of the obligations  contained in the Notes, this
Indenture and in this  Guarantee.  The obligations of each Guarantor are limited
to the maximum  amount which,  after giving effect to all other  contingent  and
fixed  liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any  collections
from or payments  made by or on behalf of any other  Guarantor in respect of the
obligations  of such other  Guarantor  under its  Guarantee  or  pursuant to its
contribution  obligations under this Indenture,  shall result in the obligations
of such Guarantor under the Guarantee not  constituting a fraudulent  conveyance
or  fraudulent  transfer  under  federal  or  state  law.  The net  worth of any
Guarantor for such purpose shall include any claim of such Guarantor against the
Company  for  reimbursement  and any  claim  against  any  other  Guarantor  for
contribution.  Each  Guarantor  may  consolidate  with or merge into or sell its
assets to the Company or another Guarantor without limitation in accordance with
SECTIONS 5.01 and 4.15. If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or
otherwise to return to the Company,  any Guarantor,  or any custodian,  trustee,
liquidator  or other similar  official  acting in relation to the Company or any
Guarantor,  any amount paid by the Company or any Guarantor to the Trustee,  the
Collateral  Agent or such  Holder,  this  Guarantee,  to the extent  theretofore
discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each Guarantor further
agrees that, as between each  Guarantor,  on the one hand, and the Holders,  the
Collateral  Agent and the  Trustee,  on the other hand,  (x) the maturity of the
obligations  guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in ARTICLE SIX for
the purposes of this  Guarantee  notwithstanding  any stay,  injunction or other
prohibition   preventing  such   acceleration  in  respect  of  the  obligations
guaranteed  hereby, and (y) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations
as provided in ARTICLE SIX,  such  obligations  (whether or not due and payable)
shall forthwith become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purpose of this
Guarantee.

            SECTION 10.02. RELEASE OF A GUARANTOR.

            A  Guarantor   will  be  released  from  its   Guarantee   (and  may
subsequently dissolve) without any action required on the part of the Trustee or
any Holder:

            (1) if all of the Capital  Stock issued by such  Guarantor or all or
substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor are sold or otherwise disposed
of  (including  by way of merger or  consolidation)  to a Person  other than the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the Company  otherwise  complies,  to the
extent  applicable,  with the  conditions  set forth under SECTION 4.15 that are
required to be  satisfied  thereunder  either  prior to or  concurrent  with the
consummation of the applicable transaction, or

            (2) upon  satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or payment in
full of the  principal  of,  premium,  if any,  accrued and unpaid  interest and
Liquidated  Damages,  if any, on the Notes and all other  Obligations  under the
Notes,  this  Indenture,  the Collateral  Agreements and the Guarantees that are
then due and payable.

                                      -63-

            At the  Company's  expense,  the Trustee shall  promptly  deliver an
appropriate  instrument evidencing such release upon receipt of a request by the
Company accompanied by an Officers' Certificate  certifying as to the compliance
with this SECTION  10.02.  Any Guarantor not so released  remains liable for the
full amount of its Guarantee as provided in this ARTICLE TEN.

            SECTION 10.03. LIMITATION OF GUARANTOR'S LIABILITY.

            Each Guarantor and, by its  acceptance  hereof,  each of the Holders
hereby  confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee
by such Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer
or  conveyance  for  purposes of any  Bankruptcy  Code,  the Uniform  Fraudulent
Conveyance  Act, the Uniform  Fraudulent  Transfer Act or any similar Federal or
state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and such Guarantor
hereby  irrevocably  agree  that the  obligations  of such  Guarantor  under the
Guarantee  shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall,  after giving effect
to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving
effect to any  collections  from or  payments  made by or on behalf of any other
Guarantor  in  respect of the  obligations  of such  other  Guarantor  under its
Guarantee  or  pursuant  to SECTION  10.05,  result in the  obligations  of such
Guarantor  under the  Guarantee not  constituting  such  fraudulent  transfer or
conveyance.

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

            Each Guarantor  (other than any Guarantor  whose  Guarantee is to be
released in accordance  with the terms of the  Guarantee  and this  Indenture in
connection with any  transaction  complying with SECTION 4.15) will not, and the
Company will not cause or permit any  Guarantor  to,  consolidate  with or merge
with or into any Person other than the Company or any other Guarantor unless:

            (1) the entity  formed by or  surviving  any such  consolidation  or
merger (if other than the Guarantor) or to which such sale, lease, conveyance or
other disposition  shall have been made is a corporation  organized and existing
under the laws of the  United  States or any State  thereof or the  District  of
Columbia;

            (2) such entity assumes (i) by  supplemental  indenture (in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee), executed and delivered to the
Trustee,  all of the  obligations  of the Guarantor  under the Guarantee and the
performance of every covenant of the Guarantee,  the Indenture, the Registration
Rights Agreement and, to the extent applicable, the Intercreditor Agreement, and
(ii) prior to the occurrence of the Trigger Event,  by amendment,  supplement or
other  instrument  (in form and  substance  satisfactory  to the  Trustee or any
Collateral Agent), executed and delivered to the Trustee, all obligations of the
Guarantor  under the Collateral  Agreements,  and in connection  therewith shall
cause such instruments to be filed and recorded in such  jurisdictions  and take
such other actions as may be required by  applicable  law to perfect or continue
the  perfection  of the Lien  created  under the  Collateral  Agreements  on the
Collateral owned by or transferred to the surviving entity;

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

            (4)  immediately  after giving effect to such  transaction  on a pro
forma basis and the assumption contemplate in clause (2) above (including giving
effect to any Indebtedness and Acquired  Indebtedness incurred or anticipated to
be incurred in connection with such transaction),  the Company could satisfy the
provisions of SECTION  5.01(3)(a) and, in the event that such transaction  shall
occur from and after the Issue Date but prior to the  occurrence  of the Trigger
Event, SECTION 5.01(3)(b).

                                      -64-

            SECTION 10.05. CONTRIBUTION.

            In order to provide for just and  equitable  contribution  among the
Guarantors,  the  Guarantors  agree,  inter se, that each Guarantor that makes a
payment  or  distribution  under a  Guarantee  shall be  entitled  to a PRO RATA
contribution from each other Guarantor hereunder based on the net assets of each
other Guarantor. The preceding sentence shall in no way affect the rights of the

proceeds of such  accounts  receivable  in the ordinary  course of business.  If
requested in writing by the Company,  the Trustee shall  instruct the Collateral
Agent to execute and deliver such  documents,  instruments  or statements and to

                                 ARTICLE TWELVE

                                   CONVERSION

            SECTION 12.01. RIGHT TO CONVERT. Subject to and upon compliance with
the  provisions  of this  Indenture,  prior to July 31, 2014,  the Holder of any
Notes shall have the right,  at such holder's  option,  to convert the principal
amount  of such  Note,  or any  portion  of such  principal  amount  which is an
integral multiple of $1,000, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common
Stock (as such  shares  shall then be  constituted)  at the  Conversion  Rate in
effect at such time,  by surrender of the Note so to be converted in whole or in
part in the manner provided in SECTION 12.02.

            SECTION 12.02. EXERCISE OF CONVERSION PRIVILEGE;  ISSUANCE OF COMMON
STOCK ON CONVERSION.

            (a) In order to exercise the  conversion  privilege  with respect to
any Note in certificated  form, the Company must receive at the office or agency
of the Company maintained for that purpose or, at the option of such holder, the
Corporate  Trust  Office,  such Note with the  original or facsimile of the form
entitled "FORM OF CONVERSION NOTICE" on the reverse thereof,  duly completed and
manually signed, together with such Note duly endorsed for transfer. Such notice
shall also state the name or names  (with  address  or  addresses)  in which the
certificate or  certificates  for shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable
on such  conversion  shall be issued,  and shall be  accompanied  by transfer or
similar taxes, if required pursuant to SECTION 12.07.

            In order to exercise the  conversion  privilege  with respect to any
interest in a Global Note, the beneficial  holder must complete,  or cause to be
completed,  the  appropriate  instruction  form for  conversion  pursuant to the
Depositary's  book-entry conversion program,  deliver, or cause to be delivered,
by  book-entry  delivery an interest in such Global  Note,  furnish  appropriate
endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Company or the Trustee or
the Conversion Agent, and pay any transfer or similar taxes if required pursuant
to SECTION 12.07.

            A Holder  may  convert  any of its Notes  called for  redemption  by
satisfying  the applicable  requirements  of the preceding two paragraphs at any
time prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the  Redemption
Date.  A Holder that has elected to have any of its Notes  purchased in a Change
of Control Offer or a Net Proceeds  Offer or on the Optional Put Date,  may only
convert such Notes if such election is withdrawn by written notice of withdrawal
delivered by the Holder to the Company or the Paying Agent prior to the close of

                                      -69-

business  on  the  Business  Day  immediately   preceding  the  date  fixed  for
repurchase.

            (b)  As  promptly  as   practicable   after   satisfaction   of  the
requirements  for  conversion  set forth above,  subject to compliance  with any
restrictions  on transfer if shares issuable on conversion are to be issued in a
name other than that of the Holder (as if such  transfer  were a transfer of the
Note (or portion  thereof)  so  converted),  the  Company  shall issue and shall
deliver to such  Holder at the office or agency  maintained  by the  Company for
that purpose or, at the option of such Holder,  the Corporate  Trust  Office,  a
certificate  or  certificates  for the  number of full  shares  of Common  Stock
issuable upon the  conversion  of such Note or portion  thereof as determined by
the Company in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE TWELVE and a check
or cash in respect of any amounts payable pursuant to SECTION 12.03. In case any
Note of a  denomination  greater  than $1,000 shall be  surrendered  for partial
conversion,  subject to SECTION 2.02,  the Company shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver to the holder of the Note so surrendered, without
charge to such holder,  a new Note or Notes in  authorized  denominations  in an
aggregate  principal amount equal to the unconverted  portion of the surrendered
Note.

            (c) Each conversion  shall be deemed to have been effected as to any
such Note (or portion  thereof) on the date on which the  requirements set forth
above in this  SECTION  12.02 have been  satisfied  as to such Note (or  portion
thereof) (such date, the  "CONVERSION  DATE"),  and the Person in whose name any
certificate  or  certificates  for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon
such conversion shall be deemed to have become on said date the holder of record
of the shares represented thereby;  PROVIDED that any such surrender on any date
when the stock  transfer  books of the Company shall be closed shall  constitute
the Person in whose name the  certificates are to be issued as the record holder
thereof for all purposes on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer
books are open, but such conversion shall be at the Conversion Rate in effect on
the date upon which such requirements shall have been satisfied.

            (d) Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee
(or other  Conversion  Agent appointed by the Company),  or the Custodian at the
direction of the Trustee (or other  Conversion  Agent appointed by the Company),
shall make a notation on such Global Note as to the  reduction in the  principal
amount represented  thereby.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of
any  conversions of Notes effected  through any Conversion  Agent other than the
Trustee.

            (e) Notes or portions thereof  surrendered for conversion during the
period  commencing  on the close of  business  on any  Record  Date  immediately
preceding any Interest  Payment Date to the opening of business on such Interest
Payment Date shall be  accompanied  by payment to the Company or its order of an
amount  equal to the  interest  payable  on such  Interest  Payment  Date on the
principal  amount  of the  Notes  or  portions  thereof  being  surrendered  for
conversion.

            SECTION 12.03. CASH PAYMENTS AT CONVERSION.

            (a) CASH PAYMENTS IN LIEU OF FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares
of Common Stock or scrip  certificates  representing  fractional shares shall be
issued upon  conversion of Notes. If more than one Note shall be surrendered for
conversion at one time by the same holder,  the number of full shares that shall
be issuable  upon  conversion  shall be  computed on the basis of the  aggregate
principal  amount of the Notes (or  specified  portions  thereof  to the  extent
permitted  hereby) so  surrendered.  If any  fractional  share of stock would be
issuable  upon the  conversion  of any Note or Notes,  the Company shall make an
adjustment  and  payment  therefor  in cash to the  holder  thereof  at the Last
Reported  Bid Price of the  Common  Stock on the last  Trading  Day  immediately
preceding  the day on which the Notes (or the  specified  portions  thereof) are
deemed to have been converted.

                                      -70-

            (b) ACCRUED INTEREST AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.  Upon the conversion of
a Note (or portion  thereof),  that portion of the accrued and unpaid  interest,
and Liquidated  Damages,  if any, with respect to the converted Note (or portion
thereof)  to  (but  excluding)  the  Conversion  Date  shall  not  be  canceled,
extinguished or forfeited, but rather shall be paid by the Company to the Holder
thereof in immediately available funds on the date that the Company delivers the
shares of Common Stock into which such Note (or portion thereof) is so converted
pursuant to SECTION 12.02.

            (c) CONVERSION  MAKE-WHOLE  AMOUNT. In the event that the Conversion
Date in respect of any  conversion of a Holder's Notes shall occur prior to July
31, 2007,  the Company  shall also pay to such Holder,  in addition to all other
amounts so payable, in immediately  available funds on the date that the Company
delivers the shares of Common Stock into which such Note (or portion thereof) is
so  converted  pursuant  to SECTION  12.02,  an amount  equal to the  Applicable
Conversion  Premium  as of  the  Conversion  Date  (the  "CONVERSION  MAKE-WHOLE
AMOUNT"). The Company may, at its option, elect to pay the Conversion Make-Whole
Amount in cash or in shares of Common Stock, or in any combination  thereof,  as
follows:

            (1) in the event  that the  Company  shall  elect to pay the  entire
      Conversion Make-Whole Amount applicable to any Holder in cash, the Company
      shall,  at the time of the delivery to such Holder of the shares of Common
      Stock into which such Holder's Notes are being converted,  deliver to such
      Holder an amount in cash equal to the Conversion Make-Whole Amount;

            (2) in the event  that the  Company  shall  elect to pay the  entire
      Conversion  Make-Whole Amount applicable to any Holder in shares of Common
      Stock,  the Company  shall,  at the time of the delivery to such Holder of
      the  shares of Common  Stock  into  which  such  Holder's  Notes are being
      converted,  deliver to such Holder additional shares of Common Stock in an
      amount  equal to a quotient  (x) the  numerator  of which  shall equal the
      Conversion Make-Whole Amount, and (y) the denominator of which shall equal
      the product of (i) ninety five  percent  (95%),  TIMES (ii) the average of
      the Last Reported Bid Prices of Common Stock for the ten (10)  consecutive
      Trading Days prior to the delivery of such  Holder's  notice of conversion
      (provided,  that,  the  Company  shall  not  be  obligated  to  issue  any
      fractional Common Stock in payment of the Conversion Make-Whole Amount and
      instead  will pay a cash  amount in respect of the  fraction  share not so
      issued based upon the calculations set forth in SECTION 12.03(a)); and

            (3) in the event that the Company shall elect to pay the  Conversion
      Make-Whole  Amount  applicable to any Holder in a combination  of cash and
      shares of Common Stock,  the Company shall, at the time of the delivery to
      such Holder of the shares of Common Stock into which such  Holder's  Notes
      are being converted, deliver to such Holder (x) cash in an amount equal to
      the  portion of the  Conversion  Make-Whole  Amount  that the  Company has
      elected  to pay in cash and (y)  additional  shares of Common  Stock in an
      amount  equal to a quotient  (i) the  numerator  of which  shall equal the
      difference of (A) the Conversion  Make-Whole Amount, minus (B) the portion
      of  the  Conversion  Make-Whole  Amount  paid  in  cash  pursuant  to  the
      immediately  preceding clause (x), and (ii) the denominator of which shall
      equal the product of (A) ninety five percent (95%),  TIMES (B) the average
      of the  Last  Reported  Bid  Prices  of  Common  Stock  for the  ten  (10)
      consecutive  Trading Days prior to the delivery of such Holder's notice of
      conversion.

            SECTION 12.04.  CONVERSION RATE. Each $1,000 principal amount of the
Notes shall be convertible  into the number of shares of Common Stock  specified
in the form of Note (herein called the "CONVERSION RATE") set forth in EXHIBIT A
hereto  (initially  72.727  shares),  subject to  adjustment as provided in this
ARTICLE  TWELVE.  References  to Conversion  Rate,  effective  Conversion  Rate,
applicable  Conversion Rate, current Conversion Rate and Conversion Rate then in
effect mean the Conversion Rate in effect on the relevant date.

            SECTION 12.05.  ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION  RATE. The Conversion  Rate
shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows:

            (a) If the Company  issues  shares of Common  Stock as a dividend or
distribution  on  shares  of  Common  Stock,  or  if  the  Company  effects  any
subdivision,  combination,  split or  reverse  split of the  Common  Stock,  the
Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

                              CR1 = CR0 * OS1 / OS0

            where:

            CR0 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such event

            CR1 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such event

            OS0 =  the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding  immediately
                   prior to such event

            OS1 =  the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding  immediately
                   after such event

            An  adjustment  made  pursuant  to  this  CLAUSE  (a)  shall  become
effective on the date immediately after (x) the date fixed for the determination
of stockholders  entitled to receive such dividend or other  distribution or (y)
the date on which such split or combination becomes effective, as applicable. If
any dividend or distribution described in this CLAUSE (a) is declared but not so
paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate
that  would  then be in effect if such  dividend  or  distribution  had not been
declared.

            (b) If the Company issues to all or substantially all of the holders
of shares of Common Stock any rights, options,  warrants or other securities (in
any case other than in connection with a stockholder rights plan) entitling them
to subscribe for or purchase  shares of Common Stock (or securities  convertible
into  shares  of Common  Stock)  at a  purchase  price  less  than (or  having a
conversion  price per share less than) the Last Reported Bid Price of the Common
Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the record date for stockholders
entitled to receive  such rights,  options,  warrants or other  securities,  the
Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

                        CR1 = CR0 * (OS0 + X) / (OS0 + Y)

            where:

            CR0 =  the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to such event

            CR1 =  the conversion rate in effect immediately after such event

            OS0 =  the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding  immediately
                   prior to such event

            X   =  the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable  pursuant
                   to  such  rights,  warrants,  options,  other  securities  or
                   convertible securities

            Y   =  the number of shares of Common  Stock equal to the  aggregate
                   exercise  price or  conversion  price  payable to exercise or
                   convert such rights,  warrants,  options, other securities or

                                      -72-

                   convertible  securities  divided  by the  average of the Last
                   Reported  Bid  Prices  of  Common  Stock  for  the  ten  (10)
                   consecutive   Trading   Days  prior  to  the   Business   Day
                   immediately   preceding  the  date  of  announcement  of  the
                   issuance of such rights, warrants,  options, other securities
                   or convertible securities

            An  adjustment  made  pursuant  to this  CLAUSE  (B)  shall  be made
successively  whenever  such rights,  warrants,  options,  other  securities  or
convertible  securities  are  issued,  and  shall  become  effective  on the day
following  the date of  announcement  of such  issuance.  If,  at the end of the
period  during  which  such  rights,  warrants,  options,  other  securities  or
convertible securities are exercisable or convertible, not all rights, warrants,
options,  other  securities or  convertible  securities  have been  exercised or
converted, as the case may be, the adjusted Conversion Rate shall be immediately
readjusted to what it would have been based upon the number of additional shares
of Common  Stock  actually  issued  (or the  number  of  shares of Common  Stock
actually issued upon conversion of convertible securities actually issued).

            For purposes of this SECTION 12.05(b),  in determining  whether such
rights,  warrants,  options,  other securities or convertible securities entitle
the holder to  subscribe  for or  purchase or  exercise a  conversion  right for
shares of Common Stock at less than the average  Last  Reported Bid Price of the
Common Stock,  and in  determining  the aggregate  exercise or conversion  price
payable for such shares of Common  Stock,  there shall be taken into account any
consideration received by the Company for such rights, warrants,  options, other
securities  or  convertible  securities  and any amount  payable on  exercise or
conversion thereof, with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to
be determined by the Board of Directors.

            (c) If the Company  dividends or distributes to all or substantially
all of the  holders of shares of Common  Stock  evidences  of the  indebtedness,
shares of  capital  stock of the  Company  or any of its  Subsidiaries,  cash or
assets, including securities but excluding:

            (i) dividends,  distributions and rights,  warrants,  options, other
      securities  or  convertible  securities  referred  to in CLAUSE (a) or (b)
      above;

            (ii) dividends and  distributions  paid exclusively in cash referred
      to in CLAUSE (d) below; and

            (iii) distributions in connection with a spin-off described below in
      this CLAUSE (c);

then the conversion rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

                          CR1 = CR0 * (MP / (MP - FV))

    where:

            CR0 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such event

            CR1 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such event

            MP  =  the  average  of the Last  Reported  Bid  Prices of shares of
                   Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive  Trading Days prior
                   to the Business Day immediately preceding the record date for
                   such distribution

            FV  =  the Fair Market Value of the  evidences of the  indebtedness,
                   shares  of  capital  stock  of  the  Company  or  any  of its
                   Subsidiaries,   cash   or   assets,   including   securities,

                                      -73-

                   distributed with respect to each outstanding  share of Common
                   Stock on the record date for such distribution

            An  adjustment  made pursuant to the above  paragraph  shall be made
successively  whenever any such  distribution is made and shall become effective
on the day immediately after the date fixed of the determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such distribution.

            Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,   with  respect  to  an  adjustment
pursuant  to  this  CLAUSE  (c)  in  connection   with  any  dividend  or  other
distribution  by the Company to the holders of shares of Common  Stock of shares
of capital  stock of any class or  series,  or similar  equity  interest,  of or
relating  to a  Subsidiary  or  other  business  unit of the  Company  (i.e.,  a
so-called  "SPIN-OFF"),  the Conversion Rate in effect  immediately prior to the
close of  business on the record date fixed for  determination  of  stockholders
entitled to receive the  distribution  will be adjusted  based on the  following
formula:

                         CR1 = CR0 * ((MPs + MPc) / MPc)

            where:

            CR0 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such event

            CR1 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such event

            MPs =  the  average of the Last  Reported  Bid Prices of the capital
                   stock or similar equity  interest  distributed to the holders
                   of shares of Common Stock  applicable  to one share of Common
                   Stock for the first ten (10)  consecutive  Trading Days after
                   the effective date of the spin-off transaction

            MPc =  the  average  of the Last  Reported  Bid  Prices of shares of
                   Common Stock for the first ten (10) consecutive  Trading Days
                   after the effective date of the spin-off transaction

            The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under the preceding  paragraph
will  occur on the tenth  (10th)  Trading  Day after the  effective  date of the
spin-off.

            If any such dividend or distribution described in this CLAUSE (C) is
declared but not paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be
the  Conversion  Rate  that  would  then  be  in  effect  if  such  dividend  or
distribution had not been declared.

            To the extent  that the  Company  has a  stockholder  rights plan in
effect at the time of  conversion  of Notes  into  shares of Common  Stock,  the
Holder will  receive,  in addition to the Common Stock into which such Notes are
then  convertible,  the rights  under the  rights  plan  unless the rights  have
separated  from the Common  Stock before the time of such  conversion,  in which
case the Conversion  Rate will be adjusted as if the Company had  distributed to
all holders of Common  Stock  evidences of the  indebtedness,  shares of capital
stock of the Company or any of its  Subsidiaries,  cash, assets or securities as
described in this CLAUSE (c) above,  subject to readjustment in the event of the
expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

            (d) If the Company makes any cash dividend or distribution to all or
substantially  all of the holders of Common Stock,  the Conversion  Rate will be
adjusted based on the following formula:

                            CR1 = CR0 * (MP / (MP-C))

                                      -74-

            where:

            CR0 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such event

            CR1 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such event

            MP  =  the  average  of the Last  Reported  Bid  Prices of shares of
                   Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive  Trading Days prior
                   to the Business Day immediately preceding the record date for
                   such distribution

            C   =  the amount of cash  dividended or otherwise  distributed  per
                   share of Common Stock

            An  adjustment  made  pursuant  to  this  CLAUSE  (d)  shall  become
effective on the date immediately after the record date for the determination of
stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution.  If any dividend
or  distribution  described  in this CLAUSE (d) is  declared  but not so paid or
made,  the Conversion  Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion  Rate that
would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

            (e) If the Company or any of its  Subsidiaries  purchases  shares of
Common  Stock  pursuant to a tender  offer or exchange  offer which  involves an
aggregate consideration per share of Common Stock that exceeds the Last Reported
Bid Price of shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day next  succeeding the last
date on which  tenders or exchanges  may be made pursuant to the tender offer or
exchange offer (the  "EXPIRATION  TIME"),  the Conversion  Rate will be adjusted
based on the following formula:

                   CR1 = CR0 * (FV + (MP * OS1)) / (MP * OS0)

            where:

            CR0 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such event

            CR1 =  the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such event

            FV  =  the Fair  Market  Value of all cash and  other  consideration
                   paid or  payable  for all  shares  of Common  Stock  that the
                   Company or its  Subsidiary  purchases in such tender offer or
                   exchange offer

            MP  =  the  average  of the Last  Reported  Bid  Prices of shares of
                   Common  Stock  for  the ten  (10)  consecutive  Trading  Days
                   commencing in the Trading Day next  succeeding  the date such
                   tender offer or exchange offer expires

            OS0 =  the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding  immediately
                   prior to such event

            OS1 =  the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding  immediately
                   after such event

            Any  adjustment  made  pursuant  to this  CLAUSE  (e)  shall  become
effective on the date immediately  following the Expiration Time. If the Company
is obligated to purchase  shares of Common Stock  pursuant to any such tender or
exchange offer, but the Company is permanently  prevented by applicable law from
effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion

                                      -75-

Rate shall again be adjusted to be the  Conversion  Rate that would be in effect
if such tender or exchange offer had not been made.

            (f) The  reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than
Common Stock  (other than any  reclassification  upon an event to which  SECTION
12.06 applies) shall be deemed to involve (i) a distribution  of such securities
other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the  effective  date
of  such  reclassification  shall  be  deemed  to be  "the  date  fixed  for the
determination of stockholders  entitled to receive such distribution" within the
meaning of SECTION 12.05(c)), and (ii) a subdivision,  split or combination,  as
the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such  reclassification  into the  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock
outstanding   immediately   thereafter   (and   the   effective   date  of  such
reclassification  shall  be  deemed  to be "the  day upon  which  such  split or
combination becomes effective" within the meaning of SECTION 12.05(a)).

            (g)  Notwithstanding  the foregoing  provisions of SECTION 12.05, no
adjustment  shall be made  thereunder,  nor shall an  adjustment  be made to the
ability of a Holder of a Note to convert, for any distribution described therein
if the Holder will otherwise  participate in the distribution without conversion
of such Holder's Notes.

            (h) The Company may make such increases in the  Conversion  Rate, in
addition to those required by CLAUSES (a) through (f) of this SECTION 12.05,  as
the Board of  Directors  deems  advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to
holders of shares of capital  stock of the  Company  (or rights to acquire  such
capital stock) resulting from any dividend or distribution of such capital stock
(or rights to acquire such capital  stock) or from any event treated as such for
income tax purposes.

            To the extent  permitted by applicable law, the Company from time to
time may  increase the  Conversion  Rate by any amount for any period of time if
the period is at least twenty (20) days, the increase is irrevocable  during the
period  and the Board of  Directors  shall have made a  determination  that such
increase  would be in the best  interests  of the Company,  which  determination
shall be conclusive.  Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased  pursuant to the
preceding  sentence,  the Company shall mail to holders of record of the Notes a
notice  of the  increase  at  least  fifteen  (15)  days  prior  to the date the
increased  Conversion  Rate  takes  effect,  and such  notice  shall  state  the
increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.

            (i)  Notwithstanding  anything  to the  contrary  set  forth in this
SECTION 12.05, no adjustment in the Conversion Rate will be required unless such
adjustment would require a change of at least one percent (1%) in the Conversion
Rate then in effect at such time. Any  adjustment to the  Conversion  Rate that,
but for the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, would otherwise be
required  to be made shall be  carried  forward  and taken  into  account in any
subsequent adjustment. All adjustments to the Conversion Rate under this ARTICLE
TWELVE  shall be made by the  Company  and shall be  calculated  to the  nearest
one-ten thousandth (1/10,000) of a share.

            (j) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the
Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and any Conversion Agent other than
the Trustee an Officers'  Certificate  setting forth the  Conversion  Rate after
such  adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment.  Unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee shall have received
such Officers' Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of
any  adjustment of the Conversion  Rate and may assume that the last  Conversion
Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect.  Promptly  after  delivery of
such  certificate,  the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the
Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which
each adjustment  becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment

                                      -76-

of the Conversion Rate to the holder of each Note at its last address  appearing
on the Note register,  within twenty (20) days after execution thereof.  Failure
to deliver  such  notice  shall not affect the  legality or validity of any such
adjustment.

            (k) In any  case  in  which  this  SECTION  12.05  provides  that an
adjustment  shall become  effective  immediately  after (1) a record date for an
event,  (2) the date fixed for the  determination  of  stockholders  entitled to
receive a dividend  or  distribution  pursuant to SECTION  12.05(a),  (3) a date
fixed  for  the  determination  of  stockholders  entitled  to  receive  rights,
warrants,  options or other  securities  pursuant to SECTION 12.05(b) or (4) the
Expiration  Time for any tender or exchange offer pursuant to SECTION  12.05(e),
(each a  "DETERMINATION  DATE"),  the  Company  may  elect  to defer  until  the
occurrence  of the  applicable  Adjustment  Event (as  hereinafter  defined) (x)
issuing  to the holder of any Note (or  portion  thereof)  converted  after such
Determination  Date and before the  occurrence  of such  Adjustment  Event,  the
additional  shares  of  Common  Stock or other  securities  issuable  upon  such
conversion by reason of the adjustment  required by such  Adjustment  Event over
and above the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to
such  adjustment and (y) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of any
fraction  pursuant to SECTION  12.03(a).  For purposes of this SECTION 12.05(k),
the term "ADJUSTMENT EVENT" shall mean:

            (i) in any case referred to in CLAUSE (1) hereof,  the occurrence of
      such event;

            (ii) in any case referred to in CLAUSE (2) hereof, the date any such
      dividend or distribution is paid or made;

            (iii) in any case  referred  to in CLAUSE  (3)  hereof,  the date of
      expiration of such rights,  warrants,  options or other securities (or the
      conversion  period of any  convertible  securities  issued  upon  exercise
      thereof); and

            (iv) in any case  referred to in CLAUSE (4) hereof,  the date a sale
      or exchange of Common Stock  pursuant to such tender or exchange  offer is
      consummated and becomes irrevocable

            (l) For  purposes  of this  SECTION  12.05,  the number of shares of
Common  Stock at any time  outstanding  shall  not  include  shares  held in the
treasury of the Company but shall  include  shares  issuable in respect of scrip
certificates  issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company
will not pay any  dividend or make any  distribution  on shares of Common  Stock
held in the treasury of the Company.

            (m) If the Trigger Event shall not have occurred on or prior to July
31, 2005,  then the  Conversion  Rate shall,  effective as of August 1, 2005, be
adjusted to equal the Reset  Conversion  Rate,  which new Conversion  Rate shall
remain subject to further  adjustment  from and after August 1, 2005 as provided
in this ARTICLE TWELVE.

            SECTION 12.06. EFFECT OF RECLASSIFICATION,  CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR
SALE. If any of the following events occur,  namely (i) any  reclassification or
change of the  outstanding  shares of Common Stock (other than a subdivision  or
combination to which SECTION 12.05(a) applies),  (ii) any consolidation,  merger
or  combination  of the Company with another Person as a result of which holders
of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive  stock,  other  securities or other
property or assets  (including  cash) with  respect to or in  exchange  for such
Common Stock, or (iii) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the
properties  and assets of the  Company to any other  Person as a result of which
holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock,  other securities or
other  property or assets  (including  cash) with  respect to or in exchange for
such Common Stock,  then the Company or the successor or purchasing  Person,  as
the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental  indenture (which

                                      -77-

shall  comply  with  the  TIA as in  force  at the  date  of  execution  of such
supplemental  indenture)  providing that each Note shall be convertible into the
kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets
(including cash) receivable upon such reclassification,  change,  consolidation,
merger,  combination,  sale or  conveyance  by a holder of a number of shares of
Common  Stock  issuable  upon  conversion  of such  Notes  (assuming,  for  such
purposes,  a sufficient  number of treasury  shares and  authorized and unissued
shares of Common  Stock are  available  to convert all such  Notes)  immediately
prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale
or  conveyance  assuming such holder of Common Stock did not exercise his rights
of  election,  if any, as to the kind or amount of stock,  other  securities  or
other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification,
change,  consolidation,  merger, combination, sale or conveyance (provided that,
if the kind or amount of stock,  other  securities  or other  property or assets
(including cash) receivable upon such reclassification,  change,  consolidation,
merger, combination, sale or conveyance is not the same for each share of Common
Stock in respect of which such rights of election  shall not have been exercised
(a "NON-ELECTING  SHARE"),  then for the purposes of this SECTION 12.06 the kind
and amount of stock,  other  securities or other  property or assets  (including
cash)  receivable upon such  reclassification,  change,  consolidation,  merger,
combination,  sale or conveyance for each non-electing  share shall be deemed to
be  the  kind  and  amount  so  receivable  per  share  by a  plurality  of  the
non-electing shares). Such supplemental  indenture shall provide for adjustments
which shall be as nearly  equivalent as may be  practicable  to the  adjustments
provided for in this ARTICLE TWELVE.

            The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental
indenture to be mailed to each holder of Notes, at its address  appearing on the
Note  register,  within  twenty (20) days after  execution  thereof.  Failure to
deliver  such  notice  shall  not  affect  the  legality  or  validity  of  such
supplemental indenture.

            The above  provisions of this SECTION 12.06 shall similarly apply to
successive reclassifications,  changes,  consolidations,  mergers, combinations,
sales and conveyances.

            If this SECTION  12.06 applies to any event or  occurrence,  SECTION
12.05 shall not apply.

            SECTION  12.07.   TAXES  ON  SHARES  ISSUED.   The  issue  of  stock
certificates  on  conversions  of Note  shall  be  made  without  charge  to the
converting Holder for any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax in
respect of the issue thereof. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay
any such tax which may be payable in respect  of any  transfer  involved  in the
issue and  delivery  of such  certificates  in any name  other  than that of the
holder of any Note converted,  and the Company shall not be required to issue or
deliver  any such  stock  certificate  unless  and until the  Person or  Persons
requesting  the issue  thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such
tax or shall have  established to the  satisfaction of the Company that such tax
has been paid.

            SECTION  12.08.  RESERVATION  OF  SHARES,  SHARES TO BE FULLY  PAID;
COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENTS;  LISTING OF COMMON STOCK. The Company
shall provide,  free from preemptive  rights, out of its authorized but unissued
shares or shares held in treasury,  sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide
for the  conversion  of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are  presented
for conversion.

            Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment  increasing
the  Conversion  Rate to an amount that would cause the  Conversion  Price to be
reduced below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Notes,  the Company will take all corporate  action which
may, in the opinion of its  counsel,  be necessary in order that the Company may
validly  and  legally  issue  such  shares  of  Common  Stock  at such  adjusted
Conversion Rate.

                                      -78-

            The Company  covenants  that all shares of Common Stock which may be
issued upon conversion of Notes will upon issue be fully paid and  nonassessable
by the Company and free from all taxes,  Liens and charges  with  respect to the
issue thereof.

            Subject  to the  terms of the  Registration  Rights  Agreement,  the
Company  covenants  that,  if any shares of Common  Stock to be provided for the
purpose of conversion of Notes hereunder  require  registration with or approval
of any governmental  authority under any federal or state law before such shares
may be validly  issued upon  conversion,  the Company  will in good faith and as
expeditiously  as  possible,  to the  extent  then  permitted  by the  rules and
interpretations of the Commission (or any successor thereto), endeavor to secure
such registration or approval, as the case may be.

            The Company further  covenants that, if at any time the Common Stock
shall be listed on the Nasdaq  National Market or Nasdaq Small Cap Market or any
national  securities  exchange or other automated  quotation system, the Company
will, if permitted by the rules of such market,  exchange or automated quotation
system,  list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on
such market,  exchange or automated  quotation system, all Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Notes.

            SECTION 12.09.  RESPONSIBILITY OF TRUSTEE. The Trustee and any other
Conversion  Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or  responsibility  to
any holder of Notes to determine the Conversion  Rate or whether any facts exist
which may require any adjustment of the Conversion  Rate, or with respect to the
nature  or extent or  calculation  of any such  adjustment  when  made,  or with
respect  to the  method  employed,  or herein or in any  supplemental  indenture
provided  to be  employed,  in  making  the  same.  The  Trustee  and any  other
Conversion  Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value
(or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock,  or of any  securities or
property,  which may at any time be issued or delivered  upon the  conversion of
any  Notes;   and  the   Trustee  and  any  other   Conversion   Agent  make  no
representations  with respect  thereto.  Neither the Trustee nor any  Conversion
Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue,  transfer or
deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock  certificates or other securities or
property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion or
to comply with any of the duties,  responsibilities  or covenants of the Company
contained  in this  ARTICLE  TWELVE.  Without  limiting  the  generality  of the
foregoing,  neither  the  Trustee  nor any  Conversion  Agent shall be under any
responsibility  to determine the correctness of any provisions  contained in any
supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to SECTION 12.06 relating either to
the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash)
receivable  by  Holders  upon the  conversion  of their  Notes  after  any event
referred to in such SECTION  12.06 or to any  adjustment to be made with respect
thereto,  but,  subject  to the  provisions  of  SECTION  7.02,  may  accept  as
conclusive  evidence of the  correctness  of any such  provisions,  and shall be
protected in relying upon, the Officers' Certificate (which the Company shall be
obligated  to  file  with  the  Trustee  prior  to the  execution  of  any  such
supplemental indenture) with respect thereto.

            SECTION 12.10.  NOTICE TO HOLDERS PRIOR TO CERTAIN  ACTIONS.  In the
event that:

            (a) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution)
on its Common Stock that would  require an  adjustment  in the  Conversion  Rate
pursuant to SECTION 12.05; or

            (b) the Company  shall  authorize the granting to the holders of all
or substantially all of the shares of Common Stock of rights, warrants,  options
or other  securities  to  subscribe  for or  purchase  any share of any class of
capital  stock of the Company or any other  rights,  warrants,  options or other
securities of the Company; or

                                      -79-

            (c) of any  reclassification  or  reorganization of the Common Stock
(other than a subdivision or combination of the  outstanding  Common Stock, or a
change in par value,  or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to
par value),  or of any  consolidation  or merger to which the Company is a party
and for which approval of any stockholders of the Company is required, or of the
sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

            (d) of the  voluntary or  involuntary  dissolution,  liquidation  or
winding up of the Company;

the  Company  shall  cause to be filed with the Trustee and to be mailed to each
holder of Notes at its address  appearing on the Note  register,  as promptly as
possible  but in any event at least ten (10) days prior to the  applicable  date
hereinafter  specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be
taken for the purpose of such dividend,  distribution or grant,  or, if a record
is not to be taken,  the date as of which the holders of Common  Stock of record
to be entitled to such dividend,  distribution or grant are to be determined, or
(y) the  date on  which  such  reclassification,  consolidation,  merger,  sale,
transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective
or occur,  and the date as of which it is expected  that holders of Common Stock
of record shall be entitled to exchange  their Common  Stock for  securities  or
other property deliverable upon such  reclassification,  consolidation,  merger,
sale,  transfer,  dissolution,  liquidation  or winding up. Failure to give such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such
dividend, distribution,  grant, reclassification,  consolidation,  merger, sale,
transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

                              (REVERSE OF SECURITY)

                     5 1/2% CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTE DUE 2014

            1.  INTEREST.  Empire  Resorts,  Inc., a Delaware  corporation  (the
"COMPANY"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the
initial rate of 5 1/2% per annum. In the event that the Trigger Event shall have
not occurred on or prior to July 31, 2005,  this Note will accrue  interest from
and after July 31, 2005 at an annual rate of 8%; provided,  that, if at any time
from and after July 31, 2005, the Trigger Event shall occur,  the annual rate at
which  interest  shall accrue on this Note shall  return to 5 1/2%.  Interest on
this Note will accrue from the most recent date on which  interest has been paid
or, if no interest has been paid,  from and including the date of issuance.  The
Company will pay interest  semi-annually  in arrears on each January 31 and July
31 (each, an "INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"),  commencing on January 31, 2005. Interest
will be  computed  on the basis of a 360-day  year  comprised  of twelve  30-day
months.  The Company will pay  interest on overdue  principal at 1% per annum in
excess  of the above  rate and will pay  interest  on  overdue  installments  of
interest at such higher rate to the extent lawful.

            2. METHOD OF PAYMENT.  The Company  shall pay  interest on the Notes
(except  defaulted  interest) to the Persons who are  registered  Holders at the
close of  business  on each  January  15 and July 15  (each,  a  "RECORD  DATE")
immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date even if the Notes are
cancelled on  registration  of transfer or  registration  of exchange after such
Record Date, and on or before such Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender
Notes to a Paying Agent to collect  principal  payments.  The Company  shall pay
principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment
is legal tender for payment of public and private debts ("U.S.  LEGAL  TENDER").
However,  the Company may pay  principal  and interest by check  payable in such
U.S.  Legal  Tender.  The Company may deliver any such  interest  payment to the
Paying Agent or to a Holder at the Holder's registered address.

            3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR.  Initially, The Bank of New York (the
"TRUSTEE")  will act as Paying Agent and  Registrar.  The Company may change any
Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to the Holders.

            4.  INDENTURE.  The Notes and the  Guarantees  were issued  under an
Indenture,  dated as of July 26, 2004 (the "INDENTURE"),  among the Company, the
Guarantors named therein and the Trustee.  Capitalized  terms herein are used as
defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. 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 (15 U.S. Code ss.ss.  77aaa-77bbbb)
(the "TIA"),  as in effect on the date of the  Indenture  until such time as the
Indenture is qualified under the TIA, and thereafter as in effect on the date on
which the Indenture is qualified under the TIA.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary  herein,  the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes
are referred to the  Indenture  and the TIA for a statement  of such terms.  The
Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company. Each Holder, by accepting a
Note, agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture, as
the same may be amended from time to time.

                                      A-4

            5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

            (a) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION ON OR AFTER APRIL 15, 2007 BUT PRIOR TO JULY
31, 2009. At any time on or after July 31, 2007 but prior to July 31, 2009,  the
Company may, at its option,  redeem some or all of the Notes, upon not less than
thirty  (30) nor more than  sixty (60) days'  notice,  for cash at a  redemption
price  equal  to  100% of the  principal  amount  thereof  plus  the  Applicable
Redemption  Premium  as of,  and  accrued  and unpaid  interest  and  Liquidated
Damages,  if any,  thereon  to,  the  date of  redemption,  but only if the last
reported  bid  price of the  Company's  Common  Stock has  exceeded  150% of the
conversion price then in effect for at least twenty (20) trading days during the
thirty (30)  consecutive  trading day period  ending on the trading day prior to
the date on which the Company mails the notice of redemption.

            (b) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION ON OR AFTER JULY 31, 2009. At any time on or
after July 31, 2009,  the Company may, at its option,  redeem some or all of the
Notes, upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days' notice, for
cash at a redemption  price equal to 100% of the principal  amount  thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated  Damages, if any, thereon to the date
of redemption.

            (c) Unless the Company  defaults  in the  payment of the  redemption
price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for
redemption on the applicable Redemption Date.

            6. REGULATORY REDEMPTION.

            (a) If any Gaming  Authority  or Racing  Authority  requires  that a
Holder  or  beneficial  owner  of Notes  must be  licensed,  qualified  or found
suitable  under  any  applicable  Gaming  Law or Racing  Law and such  Holder or
beneficial  owner  fails to apply for a license,  qualification  or a finding of
suitability  within  30  days  after  being  requested  to do so by  the  Gaming
Authority  or Racing  Authority  (or such lesser  period that may be required by
such Gaming Authority or Racing Authority), or if such Holder or such beneficial
owner is not so licensed,  qualified or found  suitable,  the Company shall have
the right,  at its option,  (1) to require  such Holder or  beneficial  owner to
dispose of such Holder's or  beneficial  owner's Notes within 30 days of receipt
of notice of such finding by the applicable Gaming Authority or Racing Authority
or such  earlier  date as may be  ordered  by such  Gaming  Authority  or Racing
Authority  or (2) to  redeem  the  Notes  of such  Holder  or  beneficial  owner
(possibly  within less than 30 days  following the notice of  redemption,  if so
ordered by such Gaming  Authority or Racing  Authority)  at a  redemption  price
equal to the lesser of (i) 100% of the principal  amount  thereof  together with
accrued and unpaid  interest and  Liquidated  Damages,  if any,  thereon to, the
earlier of the date of redemption,  the date of the finding of  unsuitability by
such  Gaming  Authority  or Racing  Authority,  or such  earlier  date as may be
required by such Gaming Authority or Racing Authority (which may be less than 30
days following the notice of redemption,  if so ordered by such Gaming Authority
or Racing Authority),  (ii) the Holder's cost, and (iii) any other amount as may
be required by applicable law or by such Gaming  Authority or Racing  Authority.
The Company  shall notify the Trustee in writing of any such  redemption as soon
as practicable and the redemption price of each Note to be redeemed.

                                      A-5

            (b)  The  Holder  or  beneficial   owner  applying  for  a  license,
qualification  or a finding of  suitability  must pay all costs of the licensure
and  investigation for such  qualification or finding of suitability.  Under the
Indenture,  the Company is not  required to pay or  reimburse  any Holder of the
Notes  or  beneficial   owner  who  is  required  to  apply  for  such  license,
qualification  or  finding of  suitability  for the costs of the  licensure  and
investigation  for such  qualification  or finding of suitability.  Such expense
will, therefore, be the obligation of such Holder or beneficial owner.

            (c)  Immediately  upon the  imposition  by any Gaming  Authority  or
Racing  Authority of a finding that any Holder or  beneficial  owner  dispose of
this Note,  such Holder or beneficial  owner will have no further  rights (i) to
exercise,  directly or  indirectly,  through any  trustee,  nominee or any other
Person,  any right conferred by the Notes (including,  without  limitation,  the
conversion  rights  described  herein) or (ii) to receive any  interest or other
distributions or payments with respect to the Notes, except the redemption price
referred to above.

            7.  NOTICE OF  REDEMPTION.  Notice of  redemption  will be mailed by
first-class  mail  at  least  30 days  but not  more  than  60 days  before  the
Redemption  Date to  each  Holder  of  Notes  to be  redeemed  at such  Holder's
registered  address. If the Company elects to redeem less than all of the Notes,
selection of the Notes for redemption  will be made by the Trustee either (i) in
compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities  exchange,
if any, on which the Notes are listed,  or (ii) if the Notes are not then listed
on a national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method
as the Trustee may reasonably  determine is fair and appropriate.  No Notes of a
principal  amount  of $1,000 or less  shall be  redeemed  in part and Notes of a
principal  amount in excess of $1,000 may be  redeemed in part in  multiples  of
$1,000 only. If Notes are to be redeemed in part only,  the notice of redemption
shall state the portion of the principal  amount  thereof to be redeemed.  A new
Note in a principal  amount  equal to the  unredeemed  portion  thereof  will be
issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon  cancellation of the original Note
(or appropriate adjustments to the amount and beneficial interests in any global
Note will be made).

            8. REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDER.  The Indenture  provides that
on July 31,  2009,  each Holder will have the right to require  that the Company
purchase  any of such  Holder's  Notes or portions  thereof,  subject to certain
conditions and in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

            9.  OFFERS  TO  PURCHASE.  The  Indenture  provides  that  upon  the
occurrence  of a Change of  Control  or an Asset  Sale and  subject  to  further
limitations  contained  therein,  the  Company  will  make an offer to  purchase
certain  amounts of the Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the
Indenture.

            10.  CONVERSION.  Subject to the occurrence of certain events and in
compliance with the provisions of the Indenture,  prior to maturity,  redemption
or repurchase,  the Holder hereof has the right, at its option,  to convert each
$1,000  principal amount of the Notes into 72.727 shares of the Company's Common
Stock (at a Conversion Price of approximately  $13.75 per share), as such shares
shall be constituted  at the date of conversion  and subject to adjustment  from
time to time as provided in the Indenture,  upon surrender of this Note with the
form entitled "FORM OF CONVERSION  NOTICE" on the reverse hereof duly completed,

                                      A-6

to the  Company  at the  office  or agency of the  Company  maintained  for that
purpose in accordance  with the terms of the Indenture or, at the option of such
holder,  the  Corporate  Trust  Office,  and,  unless  the  shares  issuable  on
conversion are to be issued in the same name as this Note,  duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by instruments of transfer in form  satisfactory to the Company duly
executed  by, the Holder or by its duly  authorized  attorney.  The Company will
notify the Holder hereof of any event  triggering the right to convert the Notes
as specified above in accordance with the Indenture.

            11.  GUARANTEE.  The payment by the Company of the principal of, and
premium and interest on, the Notes is fully and unconditionally  guaranteed on a
joint and several senior basis by each of the Guarantors to the extent set forth
in the  Indenture.  Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of
the respective rights,  limitations of rights, duties and obligations thereunder
of the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders.

            12.  REGISTRATION  RIGHTS.   Pursuant  to  the  Registration  Rights
Agreement  between the Company and the Initial  Purchaser,  the Company  will be
obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a
delayed or  continuous  basis  registering  the resale of the Notes from time to
time by Holders.

            13. DENOMINATIONS;  TRANSFER;  EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered
form,  without  coupons,  in  denominations  of $1,000  and  integral  multiples
thereof.  A Holder  shall  register  the  transfer  of or  exchange  of Notes in
accordance with the Indenture.  The Registrar may require a Holder,  among other
things, to furnish  appropriate  endorsements and transfer  documents and to pay
any taxes, fees or similar  governmental charges payable in connection therewith
as permitted by the  Indenture.  The Registrar need not register the transfer of
or exchange of any Notes or portions thereof selected for redemption.

            14. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.  The registered Holder of a Note shall be
treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

            15.  UNCLAIMED  MONEY.  If money for the  payment  of  principal  or
interest  remains  unclaimed  for two years  after  payment  to the  Holders  is
required,  the Trustee or the Paying  Agent,  as the case may be, shall pay such
amounts without  interest  thereon back to the Company upon written request from
the Company to the Trustee or the Paying Agent,  as the case may be,  subject to
the terms of the  Indenture.  After that,  all liability of the Trustee and such
Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

            16. DISCHARGE PRIOR TO REDEMPTION OR MATURITY. If the Company at any
time deposits with the Trustee U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government  Obligations
sufficient  to pay the  principal of and interest on the Notes to  redemption or
stated maturity and complies with the other provisions of the Indenture relating
thereto, the Company will be discharged from certain provisions of the Indenture
and the Notes (including certain covenants,  but excluding its obligation to pay
the principal of and interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes.)

            17.  AMENDMENT,   SUPPLEMENT,   WAIVER,   ETC.  Subject  to  certain
exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes, any Collateral Agreement or the Guarantees
may be amended,  supplemented  or waived with the written consent of the Holders

                                      A-7

of at  least  a  majority  in  aggregate  principal  amount  of the  Notes  then
outstanding.  Without  consent of any  Holder,  the  parties  thereto may amend,
supplement  or waive  provisions of the  Indenture,  the Notes,  any  Collateral
Agreement or the Guarantees to, among other things,  cure any ambiguity,  defect
or  inconsistency,  maintain the  qualification of the Indenture under the Trust
Indenture  Act of 1939,  as  amended,  and make any other  change  that does not
adversely affect in any material respect the rights of any Holder of a Note.

            18. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. The Indenture imposes certain limitations
on the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur
additional Indebtedness or Liens, consummate an asset sale, merge or consolidate
with any other  Person,  sell,  assign,  transfer,  lease,  convey or  otherwise
dispose of all or substantially all of their assets, adopt a plan of liquidation
or impair their assets.  Such  limitations  are subject to a number of important
qualifications  and  exceptions.  Pursuant to the  Indenture,  the Company  must
annually report to the Trustee on compliance with such limitations.

            19. SUCCESSORS.  When a successor Person assumes, in accordance with
the Indenture,  all the obligations of its  predecessor  Person under the Notes,
the Guarantees and the Indenture,  the predecessor  Person will be released from
those obligations.

            20.  DEFAULTS AND  REMEDIES.  Events of Default are set forth in the
Indenture. If an Event of Default occurs (other than Events of Default resulting
from bankruptcy or insolvency as described  below) and is continuing and has not
been waived,  the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate  principal
amount of Notes then outstanding may declare all the Notes to be due and payable
in the  manner,  at the  time and with the  effect  provided  in the  Indenture.
Certain  events of  bankruptcy  or  insolvency  are Events of Default  and shall
result in the Notes being  immediately  due and payable upon the  occurrence  of
such  Events of Default  without  any  further act of the Trustee or any Holder.
Holders  of Notes  may not  enforce  the  Indenture  except as  provided  in the
Indenture.  The Trustee is not  obligated to enforce the  Indenture or the Notes
unless it has received  indemnity  satisfactory  to it. The  Indenture  permits,
subject to  certain  limitations  therein  provided,  Holders  of a majority  in
aggregate  principal  amount at maturity of the Notes then outstanding to direct
the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from
Holders of Notes notice of any continuing  Default or Event of Default (except a
default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines  that  withholding
notice is in their interest.

            21. TRUSTEE  DEALINGS WITH COMPANY.  Subject to the terms of the TIA
and the  Indenture,  the Trustee under the  Indenture,  in its individual or any
other capacity,  may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal
with the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective  Affiliates as if it were
not the Trustee.

            22.  NO  RECOURSE  AGAINST  OTHERS.  No  past,   present  or  future
stockholder,  director,  officer,  employee  or  incorporator,  as such,  of the
Company or the  Guarantors  shall have any liability  for any  obligation of the
Company  under the Notes,  the  Guarantees,  the  Collateral  Agreements  or the
Indenture  or for any  claim  based  on,  in  respect  of or by  reason  of such
obligations or their creation.  Each Holder of a Note 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.

                                      A-8

            23.  AUTHENTICATION.  This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee
or Authenticating Agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this
Note.

            24. GOVERNING LAW.

            (a) THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE  WITH

Collateral  Agreements.  The actions of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes
secured by such liens and the  application  of proceeds from the  enforcement of

                  Empire Resorts, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY")

Ladies and Gentlemen:

            In connection with our proposed purchase of $_____________ aggregate
principal amount of the Notes, we confirm that:

            1. We have received a copy of the Offering  Circular (the  "OFFERING
CIRCULAR"),  dated  July  16,  2004,  relating  to  the  Notes  and  such  other
information as we deem necessary in order to make our  investment  decision.  We
acknowledge  that we have read and agreed to the  matters  stated in the section
entitled "Notice to Investors" of the Offering Circular.

            2. We  understand  that  any  subsequent  transfer  of the  Notes is
subject to certain  restrictions and conditions set forth in the Indenture dated
as of July 26, 2004 relating to the Notes (the  "INDENTURE")  and we agree to be
bound by, and not to resell,  pledge or  otherwise  transfer the Notes except in
compliance  with,  such  restrictions  and  conditions and the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT").

            3. We understand  that the offer and sale of the Notes have not been
registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws, and
that the Notes may not be offered or sold except as permitted  in the  following
sentence. We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of any accounts for which we
are acting as hereinafter  stated,  that if we should sell or otherwise transfer
any Notes  prior to the date  which is  within  two  years  after  the  original
issuance of the Notes or the last date on which the Note is owned by the Company
or any affiliate of the Company, we will do so only (i) to the Company or any of
its  subsidiaries,  (ii) inside the United States in  accordance  with Rule 144A
under the  Securities  Act to a "qualified  institutional  buyer" (as defined in
Rule 144A under the  Securities  Act),  (iii)  inside  the  United  States to an
institutional  "accredited  investor" (as defined below) provided that, prior to
such  transfer,  the  transferee  furnishes (or has furnished on its behalf by a
U.S.  broker-dealer) to you a signed letter containing  certain  representations
and  agreements   relating  to  the  restrictions  on  transfer  of  the  Notes,
substantially  in the form of this  letter,  (iv)  outside the United  States in
accordance  with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (v) pursuant
to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act

                                      C-1

(if available) or (vi) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act, and we further agree to provide to any person  purchasing any of
the Notes from us a notice advising such purchaser that resales of the Notes are
restricted as stated herein.

            4. We are not  acquiring the Notes for or on behalf of, and will not
transfer  the Notes to, any pension or welfare  plan (as defined in Section 3 of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974), except as permitted in the
section entitled "Notice to Investors" of the Offering Circular.

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

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

            7. We are acquiring the Notes purchased by us for our own account or
for  one or  more  accounts  (each  of  which  is an  institutional  "accredited
investor") as to each of which we exercise sole investment discretion.

            8.  We are  not  acquiring  Notes  with a view  to any  distribution
thereof in a transaction that would violate the Securities Act or the securities
laws of any state of the  United  States or any other  applicable  jurisdiction;
provided that the  disposition  of our property and the property of any accounts
for which we are acting as  fiduciary  shall  remain at all times within our and
their control.

            You and the  Company  are  entitled to rely upon this letter and are
irrevocably authorized to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any interested
party in any  administrative  or legal  proceedings  or  official  inquiry  with
respect to the matters  covered  hereby,  and we agree to notify you promptly if
any of our  representations  or  warranties  herein  cease  to be  accurate  and
complete.

            This letter shall be governed by, and construed in accordance  with,
the laws of the State of New York without  regard to  principles of conflicts of
laws.

                                          Very truly yours,

(b)  the  transaction  was  executed  in,  on or  through  the  facilities  of a
designated  off-shore  securities market and neither we nor any person acting on
our behalf knows that the transaction has been  pre-arranged with a buyer in the

notes  issued  after the date  hereof  and  exchange  notes  issued in  exchange
therefore,  the  "NOTES")  in  an  aggregate  principal  amount  of  $[AGGREGATE

in the Security  Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the "INDENTURE  SECURITY
Agreement")  made by the Borrower and the  Guarantors in favor of the Collateral
Agent for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Trustee, and the Noteholders,
the  Pledge  Agreement  dated  as of the  date  hereof  (the  "INDENTURE  PLEDGE
AGREEMENT"), made by the Borrower and the Guarantors parties thereto in favor of
the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Collateral  Agent, the Trustee,  and
the  Noteholders,  and certain real property  mortgages  (made prior to the date

and the  Guarantors  and the Original  Lender have  entered  into those  certain
guarantys and guarantor security agreements (the "GUARANTOR DOCUMENTS") pursuant
to which the  Original  Lender  agreed,  upon the terms  and  conditions  stated
therein, to make loans and advances to and to issue letters of credit on account
of the Borrower and the  Guarantors up to the  principal  amount of $[AMOUNT NOT
EXCEEDING  $10,000,000],  together with the fees,  interest,  expenses and other
obligations due under the Original Loan Agreement. The repayment of the

Obligations  (as that term is defined in the Original Loan Agreement) is secured
by first priority security interests in and liens on the Collateral.

            C. One of the  conditions of the Original Loan Agreement is that the
priority of the security  interests in and liens on the Collateral to secure the
Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations be senior to the security  interests in and
liens  on the  Collateral  to  secure  the  Indenture  Secured  Obligations  (as
hereinafter  defined),  in the  manner  and  to  the  extent  provided  in  this
Agreement.

            D. The Lender  and the  Collateral  Agent  desire to enter into this
Agreement  concerning  the  respective  rights of the Lender and the  Collateral
Agent with respect to the priority of their respective security interests in and
liens on the Collateral.

            E. The terms of the Indenture permit the Borrower and the Guarantors
to enter into the Original Loan  Documents,  subject to compliance  with certain
conditions,  and in connection  therewith  authorize  and direct the  Collateral
Agent to enter into a subordination  agreement substantially in the form of this
Agreement.

            F. In order to induce  the Lender to extend  credit to the  Borrower
and  the  Guarantors  and for  purposes  of  certain  conditions  precedent  and
covenants of the Original Loan  Agreement,  the Lender and the Collateral  Agent
hereby agree as follows:

Collateral.  The Collateral Agent, for itself, the Trustee, and on behalf of the

or  private  sale,  lease,  exchange,  transfer,  or  other  disposition  of the
Collateral,  whether by foreclosure  or otherwise.  The  Collateral  Agent,  for
itself, the Trustee, and on behalf of the Noteholders, hereby waives any and all
rights it, the Trustee, or the Noteholders may have as a junior lien creditor or
otherwise to contest, protest, object to, interfere with the manner in which the
Lender  seeks to enforce  the Liens in any portion of the  Collateral  (it being

indirectly,  whether  or not  in any  proceeding  (including  in any  Insolvency
Proceeding), the validity, priority,  enforceability, or perfection of the Liens
of the Collateral Agent in respect of the Collateral. Following the Discharge of
Loan Agreement Secured Obligations,  the Lender agrees that it will not take any
action that would hinder any exercise of remedies  undertaken by the  Collateral
Agent,  the Trustee,  or any  Noteholder  under the  Indenture  Loan  Documents,
including  any public or  private  sale,  lease,  exchange,  transfer,  or other
disposition of the  Collateral,  whether by foreclosure or otherwise.  Following
the Discharge of Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations,  the Lender hereby waives
any and all  rights  it may have as a  junior  lien  creditor  or  otherwise  to
contest,  protest,  object to, interfere with the manner in which the Collateral
Agent,  the Trustee or any Noteholder  seeks to enforce the Liens in any portion
of the  Collateral  (it  being  understood  and  agreed  that the  terms of this
Agreement shall govern with respect to the Collateral even if any portion of the
Liens securing the Indenture Secured  Obligations are avoided,  disallowed,  set
aside, or otherwise invalidated in any judicial proceeding or otherwise).

            Section 2.03 REMEDIES  STANDSTILL.  At any time after the occurrence
and  during  the  continuation  of an Event  of  Default  under  any of the Loan
Documents,  the Lender may send a Standstill Notice to the Collateral Agent. The
Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself, the Trustee, and the Noteholders,  agrees

                                      E-8

the Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee,  or any Noteholder will exercise any of its
rights or remedies in respect of the collection on, set off against, marshalling
of,  or  foreclosure  on the  Collateral  or any  other  right  relating  to any
Collateral  (including the exercise of any voting rights relating to any Capital
Stock  constituting  Collateral) under the Indenture Loan Documents,  applicable
law or  otherwise  as a  secured  creditor  and  will not  take or  receive  any
Collateral  in  connection  with  the  exercise  of any  such  right  or  remedy
(including  recoupment or set-off),  whether under the Indenture Loan Documents,
applicable  law, in an Insolvency  Proceeding or otherwise  unless and until (a)
the Lender has expressly waived or acknowledged the cure of the applicable Event
of Default in writing or the Discharge of the Loan Agreement Secured Obligations
shall have  occurred,  or (b) 90 days shall  have  elapsed  from the date of the
Collateral Agent's receipt of such Standstill Notice, except with respect to any
Collateral  which the Lender is  pursuing  its rights or  remedies  as a secured
creditor to effect the collection,  foreclosure, sale, or other realization upon
or  disposition of such  collateral.  From and after the earlier to occur of (i)
the  Collateral  Agent's  receipt  of such  waiver or cure  notice,  or (ii) the
elapsing of such 90th day period,  any of the Collateral Agent, the Trustee,  or
any  Noteholder  may  commence to exercise  any of its rights and  remedies as a
secured creditor under the Indenture Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise
(subject to the provisions of this Agreement,  including Section 4.02 hereof and
except with respect to any such  Collateral  as to which the Lender is effecting
the collection,  foreclosure, sale or other realization upon or disposition of).
The Lender may only send 3  Standstill  Notices  following  the date  hereof (it
being  understood and agreed as clarification to the foregoing that no more than
3 Standstill  Notices may be provided whether  delivered  hereunder or under any
corresponding  provision  of any  other  agreement  similar  hereto  that may be
delivered  pursuant  to Section  7.16) and no Event of Default  may serve as the
basis for any subsequent Standstill Notice unless 90 consecutive days shall have
elapsed  from the date that  such  event of  Default  was cured or waived by the
Lender, and no more than one Standstill Notice may be given by the Lender in any
consecutive 365-day period. The time period during which the Collateral Agent is
not permitted to exercise  rights or remedies  under this section is referred to
herein as the "STANDSTILL PERIOD".

            (a) NO OTHER  RESTRICTIONS.  Except as  expressly  set forth in this
Agreement,  each of the Collateral Agent, the Trustee, the Noteholders,  and the

under  applicable law,  including the rights to exercise all rights and remedies
in  foreclosure or otherwise  with respect to any of the  Collateral;  PROVIDED,
HOWEVER,  that any such  exercise by the  Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee or the
Noteholders,  and any collection or sale of all or any portion of the Collateral
by the Collateral Agent, the Trustee or the Noteholders, shall be subject to the
Liens of the Lender on the Collateral to the extent provided in Section 2.01 and
to the provisions of this Agreement including Section 4.02 hereof. In exercising

                                      E-9

rights and remedies with respect to the  Collateral,  the Lender may enforce the
provisions of the Lender Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in
such order and in such manner as it may  determine  in the  exercise of its sole
discretion.  Such  exercise  and  enforcement  shall  include  the sale,  lease,
license, or other disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral by private
or public sale or any other means  permissible  under applicable law;  PROVIDED,
that the Lender  agrees to provide  copies of any  notices  that it is  required
under  applicable  law  to  deliver  to the  Company  or  any  Guarantor  to the
Collateral Agent;  PROVIDED FURTHER, that the failure to provide any such copies
to the Collateral Agent shall not impair any of the Lender's rights hereunder.

            (b)  RELEASE  OF LIENS.  In the event of any such  private or public
sale,  Collateral  Agent  agrees,  on behalf of  itself,  the  Trustee,  and the
Noteholders,  that such sale  will be free and clear of the Liens  securing  the
Indenture Secured Obligations and, if the sale or other disposition includes the
Equity  Interests in Borrower or any  Guarantor,  agrees to release the entities
whose Equity Interests are sold from all Indenture  Secured  Obligations so long
as Lender also  releases the entities  whose Equity  Interests are sold from all
Loan Agreement Secured  Obligations.  In furtherance  thereof,  Collateral Agent
agrees  that it will  execute  any and all  Lien  releases  or  other  documents
reasonably requested by Lender in connection therewith,  so long as the proceeds
from such sale or other  disposition of the Collateral are applied in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.

            (c) Subject to Section 3.01, the Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee and
the Noteholders may exercise,  and nothing herein shall  constitute a waiver of,
any right it may have at law or equity to receive  notice of, or to  commence or
join with any creditor in  commencing  any  Insolvency  Proceeding or to join or
participate in, any action or proceeding or other activity  described in Section
3.01; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that exercise of any such right by the Collateral Agent
shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including
the  obligation  to  turn  over  Collateral  and  Proceeds  to  the  Lender  for
application  to the Loan  Agreement  Secured  Obligations as provided in Section
4.02.

            (d) The  Collateral  Agent may make such demands or file such claims
in respect of the Indenture  Secured  Obligations as may be necessary to prevent
the waiver or bar of such claims under  applicable  statutes of  limitations  or
other  statutes,  court orders or rules of procedure,  but except as provided in
this Section 2.04, the Collateral Agent shall not take any actions restricted by
this Agreement until the Discharge of Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations shall
have occurred.

            (e) Following the Discharge of Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations,
the other  provisions of this Section 2.04 shall apply to the Collateral  Agent,
for the  benefit of itself,  the Trustee  and the  Noteholders  as if it was the
Lender and the Lender was the Collateral Agent, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

                                  ARTICLE III.

                             ACTIONS OF THE PARTIES

            Section 3.01  LIMITATION  ON CERTAIN  ACTIONS.  Notwithstanding  any
other provision hereof,  during any Standstill Period prior to the date that the
Discharge of Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations  occurs,  the Collateral Agent
will not:

                        (a) commence  receivership  or  foreclosure  proceedings
            against Borrower, any Guarantor, or any Collateral;

                        (b) sell, collect, transfer or dispose of any Collateral
            or Proceeds; or

                        (c) notify third party  account  debtors to make payment
            directly to it or any of its agents or other  Persons  acting on its
            behalf.

            Section  3.02  AGENT  FOR  PERFECTION.  Each of the  Lender  and the
Collateral Agent, for and on behalf of itself, the Trustee, and each Noteholder,
as applicable,  agree to hold all Control Collateral and Cash Collateral that is
part of the Collateral in its respective possession,  custody, or control (or in
the  possession,  custody,  or  control  of agents or  bailees  for  either,  as
applicable)  as agent for the other  solely for the  purpose of  perfecting  the
security interest granted to each in such Control  Collateral or Cash Collateral
subject to the terms and  conditions of this Section  3.02.  None of the Lender,
the Collateral Agent, the Trustee, or the Noteholders, as applicable, shall have
any obligation whatsoever to the others to assure that the Control Collateral is
genuine or owned by Borrower,  any  Guarantor or any other Person or to preserve
rights or benefits of any Person. The duties or  responsibilities  of the Lender
and the Collateral Agent under this Section 3.02 are and shall be limited solely
to  holding  or  maintaining  control  of the  Control  Collateral  and the Cash
Collateral  as agent for the other for purposes of  perfecting  the Lien held by
the Collateral Agent or the Lender,  as applicable.  The Lender is not and shall
not be  deemed  to be a  fiduciary  of any kind for the  Collateral  Agent,  the
Trustee,  the Noteholders or any other Person.  The Collateral  Agent is not and
shall not be deemed to be a  fiduciary  of any kind for the  Lender or any other
Person. In the event that (a) any of the Collateral  Agent, the Trustee,  or any
Noteholder  receives any Proceeds or Lender  Collateral in  contravention of the
Lien  Priority,  or (b) the  Lender  receives  any  Proceeds  or  Collateral  in
contravention of the Lien Priority,  it shall promptly pay over such Proceeds or
Collateral to (i) in the case of clause (a), the Lender,  or (ii) in the case of
clause  (b),  the  Collateral  Agent,  in the  same  form as  received  with any
necessary  endorsements,  for  application in accordance  with the provisions of
Section 4.02 of this Agreement.

                                      E-11

                                  ARTICLE IV.

                       NOTICES AND APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

            Section 4.01 NOTICES OF EXERCISE.  Concurrently with any exercise by
the Collateral  Agent of any of its rights and remedies under the Indenture Loan
Documents  following  the  occurrence of any default  under the  Indenture,  the
Notes, or the Indenture Loan Documents,  the Collateral  Agent shall give notice
of such  exercise to the Lender and shall only  exercise such rights or remedies
in a manner  consistent with the terms of this Agreement.  Concurrently with any
exercise by the Lender of any of its rights and  remedies  under the Lender Loan
Documents  following  the  occurrence  of any  default  under  the  Lender  Loan
Documents, the Lender shall give notice of such exercise to the Collateral Agent
and shall only exercise such rights or remedies in a manner  consistent with the
terms of this Agreement.

            Section 4.02 Application of Proceeds.

                        (a)   REVOLVING   NATURE  OF  LOAN   AGREEMENT   SECURED
            OBLIGATIONS.  As long as the  Lender  is not  exercising  any of its
            remedies as a secured  creditor  under the Lender Loan Documents and
            including during any Standstill Period, the Lender may apply any and
            all of  the  proceeds  of  the  Collateral  consisting  of  accounts
            receivable, other rights to payment or Cash Collateral in accordance
            with the  provisions  of the Lender Loan  Documents,  subject to the
            provisions  of this  Agreement,  including  Sections  3.02  and 4.02
            hereof.  The  Collateral  Agent,  for and on behalf of  itself,  the
            Trustee, and the Noteholders, expressly acknowledges and agrees that
            (a) any such  application  of the  proceeds of accounts  receivable,
            other  rights to payment or Cash  Collateral  or the  release of any
            Lien by the Lender upon any portion of the  Collateral in connection
            with a  Permitted  Disposition  (as that term is defined in the Loan
            Agreement)  shall not be  considered  to be the exercise of remedies
            under  this  Agreement;  and (b)  all  Proceeds  or Cash  Collateral
            received by Lender in connection therewith may be applied, reversed,
            reapplied,  credited  or  reborrowed,  in whole or in part,  as Loan
            Agreement Secured  Obligations without reducing the Maximum Priority
            Debt Amount.

                        (b) TURNOVER OF CASH COLLATERAL AFTER PAYMENT.  Upon the
            Discharge  of the Loan  Agreement  Secured  Obligations,  the Lender
            shall deliver to the  Collateral  Agent or execute such documents as
            the Collateral Agent may reasonably  request to cause the Collateral
            Agent to have control over any Cash Collateral or Control Collateral
            still in Lender's possession, custody or control in the same form as
            received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent
            jurisdiction may otherwise  direct,  to be applied by the Collateral
            Agent to the Indenture Secured Obligations. Proceeds of any exercise
            by the Lender or the  Collateral  Agent,  as  applicable,  of any of
            their  respective  secured  creditor rights or remedies under any of

                                      E-12

            the Loan Documents,  under applicable law, or otherwise with respect
            to any  Collateral or Proceeds,  shall be (a) until the Discharge of
            the Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations,  retained by the Lender or
            promptly turned over by the Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee,  or any
            Noteholder,  as the case may be,  to the  Lender in the same form as
            received, with any necessary  endorsements,  (b) after the Discharge
            of the Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations  and until all Indenture
            Secured  Obligations have been paid in full in cash, retained by the
            Collateral  Agent  or  promptly  turned  over by the  Lender  to the
            Collateral  Agent in the same form as received,  with any  necessary
            endorsements,  and (c) if there  are any  amounts  still  due or any
            obligations   outstanding  to  the  Lender  under  the  Lender  Loan
            Documents  in excess of the Maximum  Priority  Debt Amount after the
            payment in full in cash of all Indenture Secured Obligations,  shall
            be retained by the Lender or promptly  turned over by the Collateral
            Agent to the Lender in the same form as received, with any necessary
            endorsements.

                        (c)   APPLICATION  OF  PROCEEDS.   The  Lender  and  the
            Collateral  Agent hereby agree that all  Collateral and all Proceeds
            received by either of them upon the  exercise  of any their  secured
            creditor  rights  or  remedies  under  any  of the  Loan  Documents,
            applicable law, or otherwise shall be applied,

            FIRST, to the payment of costs and expenses of the Lender, or of the
Collateral Agent, the Trustee, and the Noteholders, as applicable, in connection
with such exercise,

            SECOND, to the payment of the Loan Agreement Secured  Obligations up
to (but not in excess of) the Maximum Priority Debt Amount,

            THIRD, to the payment of the Indenture Secured Obligations, and

            FOURTH, to the payment of any Loan Agreement Secured  Obligations in
excess of the Maximum Priority Debt Amount.

In exercising remedies,  whether as a secured creditor or otherwise,  the Lender
shall have no obligation or liability to the Collateral  Agent, the Trustee,  or
to any Noteholder and the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation or liability
to the  Lender  regarding  the  adequacy  of any  Proceeds  or for any action or
omission  save and except solely an action or omission that breaches the express
obligations undertaken by each Party under the terms of this Agreement.

            Section  4.03  SPECIFIC  PERFORMANCE.  Each  of the  Lender  and the
Collateral  Agent is hereby  authorized to demand  specific  performance of this
Agreement,  whether or not the Borrower,  any Subsidiary or any Guarantor  shall
have complied with any of the  provisions of any of the Loan  Documents,  at any
time when the other shall have failed to comply  with any of the  provisions  of
this  Agreement  applicable  to it;  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER,  the remedy of specific

                                      E-13

performance  shall not be available,  and the  asserting  party shall be free to
assert any and all legal  defenses it may  possess,  if such remedy would result
in, or  otherwise  constitute,  a violation of the  Employee  Retirement  Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended.  Each of the Lender and the  Collateral  Agent
hereby  irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law,
which might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance.

                                   ARTICLE V.

                   INTERCREDITOR ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AND WAIVERS

            Section 5.01 NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE AND OTHER WAIVERS.

                        (a) All Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations at any time
            made  or  incurred  by  Borrower,  any  of its  Subsidiaries  or any
            Guarantor  shall be deemed to have been made or incurred in reliance
            upon this Agreement,  and the Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself,
            the  Trustee,  and the  Noteholders,  hereby  waives  (i)  notice of
            acceptance,  or proof of reliance,  by the Lender of this Agreement,
            and (ii)  notice  of the  existence,  renewal,  extension,  accrual,
            creation,  or  non-payment  of all or any part of the Loan Agreement
            Secured  Obligations.  Neither the Lender nor any of its affiliates,
            directors,  officers,  employees,  or  agents  shall be  liable  for
            failure to demand, collect, or realize upon any of the Collateral or
            for any delay in doing so or shall be under any  obligation  to sell
            or otherwise  dispose of any  Collateral or to take any other action
            whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof, except

                                      E-14

            as specifically provided in this Agreement. If the Lender honors (or
            fails to honor) a request by the Borrower for an extension of credit
            pursuant to the Loan Agreement or any of the Lender Loan  Documents,
            whether  Lender has  knowledge  that the  honoring of (or failure to
            honor) any such request  would  constitute a default under the terms
            of  the  Indenture  or  any  Indenture  Loan  Document  or  an  act,
            condition,  or event that,  with the giving of notice or the passage
            of time,  or both,  would  constitute  such a default,  or if Lender
            otherwise should exercise any of its contractual  rights or remedies
            under the Lender Loan  Documents  (subject to the express  terms and
            conditions hereof),  Lender shall not have any liability  whatsoever
            to the Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee or any Noteholder as a result
            of such action,  omission, or exercise (so long as any such exercise
            does not breach the express terms and provisions of this Agreement).
            The Lender will be entitled  to manage and  supervise  its loans and
            extensions of credit under the Loan  Agreement and other Lender Loan
            Documents  as  the  Lender  may,  in  its  sole   discretion,   deem
            appropriate,  and the Lender may manage its loans and  extensions of
            credit without regard to any rights or interests that the Collateral
            Agent, the Trustee, or any of the Noteholders have in the Collateral
            or  otherwise  except  as  otherwise  expressly  set  forth  in this
            Agreement.  The Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself,  the Trustee,
            and the  Noteholders,  agrees  that the  Lender  shall not incur any
            liability  as  a  result  of  a  sale,  lease,   license,  or  other
            disposition of the Collateral,  or any part thereof, pursuant to the
            Lender  Loan  Documents   conducted  in  accordance  with  mandatory
            provisions of applicable law.

                        (b) None of  Collateral  Agent,  Trustee,  or any of the
            Noteholders  nor  any  of  their  affiliates,  directors,  officers,
            employees, or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect,
            or realize upon any of the  Collateral  or for any delay in doing so
            or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any
            Collateral or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the
            Collateral or any part thereof,  except as specifically  provided in
            this  Agreement.  If  Collateral  Agent,  Trustee,  or  any  of  the
            Noteholders  should  exercise  any of their  contractual  rights  or
            remedies  under the  Indenture  Agreements  (subject  to the express
            terms and conditions hereof),  none of Collateral Agent, Trustee, or
            any of the  Noteholders  shall have any liability  whatsoever to the
            Lender as a result of such action, omission, or exercise (so long as
            any such exercise  does not breach the express terms and  provisions
            of this Agreement).  The Collateral Agent,  Trustee, and Noteholders
            will be entitled to manage and supervise  their loans and extensions
            of credit under the Indenture  Agreements as they may, in their sole
            discretion,  deem  appropriate,  and they may manage their loans and
            extensions of credit  without regard to any rights or interests that
            the Lender has in the  Collateral  or otherwise  except as otherwise
            expressly set forth in this Agreement.  Subject to Section 2.03, the
            Lender agrees that none of the Collateral Agent, the Trustee, or the
            Noteholders  shall incur any liability as a result of a sale, lease,
            license,  or  other  disposition  of the  Collateral,  or  any  part
            thereof,   pursuant  to  the  Indenture   Agreements   conducted  in
            accordance with mandatory provisions of applicable law.

            Section 5.02  MODIFICATIONS  TO LENDER LOAN  DOCUMENTS AND INDENTURE
AGREEMENTS.

                        (a) The  Collateral  Agent,  on  behalf of  itself,  the
            Trustee, and the Noteholders,  hereby agrees that, without affecting
            the  obligations  of the  Collateral  Agent,  the  Trustee  and  the
            Noteholders hereunder,  the Lender may, at any time and from time to
            time, in its sole discretion without the consent of or notice to the
            Collateral  Agent,  the  Trustee  or any  Noteholder  (except to the
            extent such  notice or consent is  required  pursuant to the express
            provisions of this Agreement),  and without  incurring any liability
            to the Collateral  Agent, the Trustee or any Noteholder or impairing
            or releasing the subordination  provided for herein, amend, restate,
            supplement, replace, refinance, extend, consolidate, restructure, or
            otherwise  modify  the  Loan  Agreement  or any of the  Lender  Loan
            Documents in any manner whatsoever, including, to

            (i) change the manner,  place, time, or terms of payment or renew or
alter, all or any of the Loan Agreement Secured  Obligations or otherwise amend,
restate,  supplement,  or otherwise modify in any manner, or grant any waiver or

                                      E-15

release  with  respect  to,  all  or any  part  of the  Loan  Agreement  Secured
Obligations or any of the Lender Loan Documents,

            (ii) retain or obtain a Lien on any property of any Person to secure
any of the Loan Agreement Secured  Obligations,  and in that connection to enter
into any additional Lender Loan Documents,

            (iii) amend, or grant any waiver, compromise or release with respect
to, or consent to any departure  from, any guaranty or other  obligations of any
Person obligated in any manner under or in respect of the Loan Agreement Secured
Obligations,

            (iv) release its Lien on any Collateral or other property,

            (v) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against Borrower,
any Guarantor or any other Person,

            (vi) retain or obtain the  primary or  secondary  obligation  of any
other Person with respect to any of the Loan Agreement Secured Obligations, and

            (vii)  otherwise  manage and  supervise the Loan  Agreement  Secured
Obligations as the Lender shall deem appropriate.

                        (b) The Lender hereby agrees that  Collateral  Agent, on
            behalf of itself, the Trustee,  and the Noteholders may, at any time
            and from time to time, in its sole discretion without the consent of
            or notice to the Lender (except to the extent such notice or consent
            is required  pursuant to the express  provisions of this Agreement),
            and without  incurring  any  liability to the Lender or impairing or
            releasing the  subordination  provided for herein,  amend,  restate,
            supplement, replace, refinance, extend, consolidate, restructure, or
            otherwise modify the Indenture  Agreements in any manner whatsoever,
            PROVIDED,  HOWEVER,  that in no event shall  Collateral  Agent,  the
            Trustee,  or any Noteholder  obtain a Lien on any assets of Borrower
            or any Guarantor not constituting  Collateral unless (i) Lender also
            obtains a Lien on such assets or (ii)  Lender  declines in a writing
            to Collateral Agent to obtain a Lien on such assets.

                        (c)  Notwithstanding  anything to the  contrary  herein,
            this Section  5.02 shall not be construed to  constitute a waiver by
            the Collateral Agent, the Trustee, or any Noteholder of Section 4.12
            of the Indenture.

                        (d) Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary herein, in
            no event shall Indebtedness represented by any notes issued pursuant
            to the Indenture,  including any Notes (or  represented by any other
            evidence of  indebtedness  for borrowed money under the Notes or the
            Indenture) at any time exceed an aggregate principal amount equal to

            Section 5.03 REINSTATEMENT AND CONTINUATION OF AGREEMENT.

                        (a) If Lender is required in any  Insolvency  Proceeding
            or  otherwise  to turn over or  otherwise  pay to the  estate of the
            Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, any Guarantor or any other Person
            any  amount  (a  "RECOVERY"),   then  the  Loan  Agreement   Secured
            Obligations  shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery.  If
            this Agreement  shall have been  terminated  prior to such Recovery,
            this  Agreement  shall be reinstated  in full force and effect,  and
            such  prior  termination  shall not  diminish,  release,  discharge,
            impair,  or otherwise  affect the  obligations of the parties hereto
            from such date of reinstatement.  All rights, interests, agreements,
            and obligations of the Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee,  the Lender,
            and the Noteholders  under this Agreement shall remain in full force
            and effect and shall continue  irrespective of the  commencement of,
            or any  discharge,  confirmation,  conversion,  or  dismissal of any
            Insolvency   Proceeding   by  or  against   Borrower,   any  of  its
            Subsidiaries  or any  Guarantor  or  any  other  circumstance  which
            otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of
            the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Guarantor in respect of the Loan
            Agreement  Secured  Obligations.  No priority or right of the Lender
            shall at any time be prejudiced or impaired in any way by any act or
            failure to act on the part of the Borrower,  any of its Subsidiaries
            or any  Guarantor  or by the  noncompliance  by any Person  with the
            terms, provisions, or covenants of the Loan Agreement, the Indenture
            or any of the other  Loan  Documents,  regardless  of any  knowledge
            thereof which the Lender may have.

                        (b) If Collateral Agent, the Trustee,  or any Noteholder
            is required in any  Insolvency  Proceeding or otherwise to turn over
            or  otherwise  pay  to  the  estate  of  the  Borrower,  any  of its
            Subsidiaries, any Guarantor or any other Person a Recovery, then the
            Indenture  Secured  Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of
            such  Recovery.  No priority or right of the Collateral  Agent,  the
            Trustee,  or any  Noteholder  shall  at any  time be  prejudiced  or
            impaired  in any way by any act or failure to act on the part of the
            Borrower,  any  of  its  Subsidiaries  or  any  Guarantor  or by the
            noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions, or covenants
            of the Loan  Agreement,  the Indenture or any of the other Indenture
            Agreements, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the Collateral
            Agent, the Trustee, or any Noteholder may have.

                                  ARTICLE VI.

                             INSOLVENCY PROCEEDINGS

            Section 6.01 DIP FINANCING. If the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries
or any Guarantor  shall be subject to any  Insolvency  Proceeding and the Lender
shall desire, prior to the Discharge of Loan Agreement Secured  Obligations,  to
permit the use of cash collateral or to permit Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries

                                      E-17

or any Guarantor to obtain  financing  under Section 363 or Section 364 of Title
11 of the United States Code or any similar  provision  under the law applicable
to any  Insolvency  Proceeding  ("DIP  FINANCING")  to be  secured by all or any
portion of the Collateral,  then the Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself,  the
Trustee, and the Noteholders, agrees that it will raise no objection to such use
of cash collateral or DIP Financing and will not request adequate  protection or
any other relief in connection with its or their interest in any such Collateral
except to the extent  specified  in this Section  6.01.  To the extent the Liens
securing the Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations are subordinated or PARI PASSU
with such DIP Financing,  the Collateral Agent, for and on behalf of itself, the
Trustee,  and the  Noteholders,  hereby agrees that its Liens in the  Collateral
shall be  subordinated  to such DIP  Financing  (and  all  obligations  relating
thereto) upon the terms and conditions  specified in this  Agreement.  Until the
Discharge of Loan Agreement  Secured  Obligations  has occurred,  the Collateral
Agent, on behalf of itself, the Trustee,  and the Noteholders,  agrees that none
of them  shall  seek  relief  from the  automatic  stay or any other stay in any
Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Collateral and will not provide or offer
to provide any DIP Financing  secured by a Lien senior to or PARI PASSU with the
Liens securing the Loan Agreement Secured  Obligations,  in each case unless the
Lender otherwise has provided its express written consent.

            Section 6.02 NO CONTEST.  The Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself,
the Trustee,  and the  Noteholders,  agrees that, prior to the Discharge of Loan
Agreement Secured Obligations,  none of them shall contest (or support any other
Person contesting) (a) any request by the Lender for adequate protection, or (b)
any objection by the Lender to any motion,  relief,  action, or proceeding based
on Lender  claiming that their  interests in the  Collateral  are not adequately
protected or any other similar request under any law applicable to an Insolvency
Proceeding.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any Insolvency Proceeding, if the
Lender is granted  adequate  protection in the form of additional  collateral in
connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral under Section 363 or
Section 364 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any similar law  applicable
to any Insolvency  Proceeding,  then the Collateral  Agent, on behalf of itself,
the Trustee, or any of the Noteholders,  may seek or request adequate protection
in the form of a Lien on such  additional  collateral,  which Lien hereby is and
shall be deemed to be  subordinated  to the Liens  securing  the Loan  Agreement
Secured  Obligations  up to (but not in excess  of) the  Maximum  Priority  Debt
Amount and such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same
basis as the Lien  Priority.  In the event the  Collateral  Agent,  on behalf of
itself, the Trustee, and the Noteholders,  seeks or requests adequate protection
and such  adequate  protection  is  granted  in the form of Liens in  respect of
additional  collateral,  then the  Collateral  Agent,  on behalf of itself,  the
Trustee,  and each of the  Noteholders,  agrees  that the  Lender  also shall be
granted a senior Lien on such  additional  collateral  as security  for the Loan
Agreement Secured Obligations (and for any such DIP Financing) and that any Lien
on such additional  collateral  securing the Indenture Secured Obligations shall

                                      E-18

be subordinated to the Liens in respect of such additional  collateral  securing
the Loan Agreement Secured  Obligations and any such DIP Financing and any other
Liens  granted to the  Lender as  adequate  protection  on the same basis as the
other Liens securing the Indenture  Secured  Obligations are subordinated to the
Loan  Agreement  Secured  Obligations  under this  Agreement  up to the  Maximum
Priority  Debt Amount.  Nothing  contained  herein shall  prohibit or in any way
limit the Lender,  prior to the Discharge of Loan Agreement Secured Obligations,
from objecting in any Insolvency  Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by
the  Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee or any of the  Noteholders,  including  the
seeking by the  Collateral  Agent,  the  Trustee or any  Noteholder  of adequate
protection  or the  asserting  by  the  Collateral  Agent,  the  Trustee  or any
Noteholder of any of its rights and remedies  under the Indenture Loan Documents
or otherwise.

            Section 6.03 ASSET SALES. The Collateral Agent agrees,  on behalf of
itself,  the  Trustee,  and the  Noteholders,  that it will not  oppose any sale
consented to by Lender of Shared Collateral  pursuant to Section 365(f) of Title
11 of the United States Code (or any similar  provision in any other  applicable
Bankruptcy  Law) so long as the proceeds of such sale are applied in  accordance
with this Agreement.

            Section 6.04  ENFORCEABILITY.  The  provisions of this Agreement are
intended  to be and shall be  enforceable  under  Section 510 of Title 11 of the
United States Code. The Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself, the Trustee,  and
the Noteholders,  agrees that all  distributions  that the Collateral Agent, the
Trustee, or any Noteholder  receives in any Insolvency  Proceeding on account of
the Collateral or Proceeds shall be held in trust by such Person and turned over
to the Lender for application in accordance with Section 4.02 of this Agreement.
To the extent that any amounts received by the Collateral Agent, the Trustee, or
any Noteholder are paid over in connection with this provision,  the obligations
owed by the  Borrower  to such  Person  will be deemed to be  reinstated  to the
extent of the amounts so paid over.

                                  ARTICLE VII.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

            Section 7.01 RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION. The Collateral Agent agrees that
no payment or  distribution  to the Lender  pursuant to the  provisions  of this
Agreement shall entitle the Collateral Agent, the Trustee,  or any Noteholder to
exercise any rights of  subrogation  in respect  thereof  until the Discharge of
Loan Agreement Secured Obligations shall have occurred.  Following the Discharge
of Loan  Agreement  Secured  Obligations,  the  Lender  agrees to  execute  such
documents,  agreements,  and instruments as the Collateral Agent, the Trustee or
any Noteholder may reasonably request to evidence the transfer by subrogation to
any such  Person  of an  interest  in the  Loan  Agreement  Secured  Obligations
resulting from payments or distributions  to the Lender by such Person,  so long
as  all  costs  and  expenses   (including   all   reasonable   legal  fees  and
disbursements)  incurred in connection  therewith by the Lender are paid by such
Person upon request for payment thereof.

                                      E-19

            Section  7.02 FURTHER  ASSURANCES.  The Parties  will,  at their own
expense and at any time and from time to time,  promptly execute and deliver all
further  instruments  and documents,  and take all further  action,  that may be
necessary or desirable, or that either Party may reasonably request, in order to
protect any right or interest  granted or purported  to be granted  hereby or to
enable the Lender or the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and
remedies hereunder;  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER,  that no Party shall be required to pay
over any payment or distribution,  execute any instruments or documents, or take
any other action referred to in this Section 7.02 to the extent that such action
would contravene any law, order or other legal requirement,  and in the event of
a controversy or dispute,  such Party may interplead any payment or distribution
in any  court of  competent  jurisdiction,  without  further  responsibility  in
respect of such payment or distribution under this Section 7.02.

            Section 7.03  REPRESENTATIONS.  The Original  Lender  represents and
warrants to the Collateral  Agent that it has the requisite  power and authority
under the Original Loan Agreement to enter into, execute, deliver, and carry out
the terms of this Agreement.  The Collateral  Agent represents and warrants that
it has the  requisite  power and  authority  under the  Indenture to enter into,
execute, deliver, and carry out the terms of this Agreement on behalf of itself,
the Trustee, and the Noteholders.

            Section 7.04 AMENDMENTS.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of
this  Agreement  nor  consent  to any  departure  by any Party  hereto  shall be
effective unless it is in a written  agreement  executed by the Collateral Agent
and the Lender,  and then such waiver or consent shall be effective  only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

                              TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The  Mortgagor  further  represents,  warrants,  covenants  and agrees  with the
Mortgagee and the Secured Parties as follows:

            1. WARRANTY OF TITLE.  The  Mortgagor  warrants that it has good and
marketable record title in fee simple to the Real Estate,  and good title to the
rest of the Mortgaged  Property,  subject only to the matters that are set forth
in  Schedule B of the title  insurance  policy or policies  being  issued to the
Mortgagee to insure the lien of this Mortgage and any other  Permitted Liens (as
defined in the Indenture). The Mortgagor shall warrant, defend and preserve such
title  and the lien of this  Mortgage  against  all  claims of all  persons  and
entities  (not  including  the holders of the  Permitted  Liens).  The Mortgagor
represents  and  warrants  that it has the power and lawful  authority to grant,
bargain,  sell,  assign,  transfer,  mortgage  and  convey a  mortgage  lien and
security  interest  in all of the  Mortgaged  Property to the  Mortgagee  in the
manner  and form  herein  provided  and  without  obtaining  the  authorization,
approval,  consent or waiver of any  grantor,  lessor,  sublessor,  governmental
authority or other Person whomsoever.

            2. PAYMENT OF  OBLIGATIONS.  The Mortgagor shall pay and perform the
Obligations  at  the  times  and  places  and  in the  manner  specified  in the
Collateral Agreements.

            3. REQUIREMENTS.  The Mortgagor shall promptly comply with all laws,
ordinances,  judgments,  decrees,  injunctions,  writs and  orders of any court,
arbitrator  or  governmental  agency or authority,  and all rules,  regulations,
orders,  interpretations,  directives,  licenses and permits,  applicable to the
Mortgaged Property, and all covenants,  restrictions and conditions now or later
of record which may be applicable to any of the  Mortgaged  Property,  or to the
use, manner of use, occupancy, possession, operation,  maintenance,  alteration,
repair or reconstruction of any of the Mortgaged  Property.  The Mortgagor shall
not commit,  nor permit or suffer to occur,  any material  waste with respect to
the Mortgaged Property.

            4. PAYMENT OF TAXES AND OTHER IMPOSITIONS.  (a) Promptly when due or
prior to the date on which  any  fine,  penalty,  interest  or cost may be added
thereto or imposed, the Mortgagor shall pay and discharge all taxes, charges and

                                       4

assessments of every kind and nature,  all charges for any easement or agreement
maintained  for the benefit of any of the Real  Estate,  all general and special
assessments,  levies, permits,  inspection and license fees, all water and sewer
rents and charges,  vault taxes and all other public  charges even if unforeseen
or extraordinary, imposed upon or assessed against or which may become a lien on
any of the  Real  Estate,  or  arising  in  respect  of  the  occupancy,  use or
possession  thereof,  together  with any  penalties  or  interest  on any of the
foregoing  (all of the  foregoing  are  collectively  referred  to herein as the
"IMPOSITIONS"),  except  where  (i) the  validity  or  amount  thereof  is being
contested  in  good  faith  by  appropriate  proceedings,  which  the  Mortgagee
determines  suspends the obligation to pay the  Imposition and that  non-payment
thereof will not result in forfeiture,  sale, loss or diminution of any interest
of the Mortgagee in the Mortgaged  Property and (ii) the Mortgagor has set aside
on its books  adequate  reserves with respect  thereto in accordance  with GAAP,
which  reserves  shall  include  reasonable  additional  sums to cover  possible
interest,  costs,  and penalties;  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER,  that the Mortgagor shall
promptly  cause  to  be  paid  any  amount  adjudged  by a  court  of  competent
jurisdiction to be due, with all interest, costs and penalties thereon, promptly
after such judgment  becomes final (and,  subject to the Mortgagee's  rights and
remedies  during an Event of Default and subject to any  provisions set forth in
the  Collateral  Agreements  to the contrary,  the Mortgagee  shall make any sum
deposited in such reserve  available for such payment);  and provided,  further,
that, in all events,  Impositions,  interest  costs and penalties  shall be paid
prior to the date any writ or order is issued under which the Mortgaged Property
may be sold,  lost or forfeited.  Upon request by the  Mortgagee,  the Mortgagor
shall deliver to the Mortgagee evidence  reasonably  acceptable to the Mortgagee
showing the payment of any such  Imposition.  If by law any  Imposition,  at the
Mortgagor's  option,  may  without  penalty or  premium be paid in  installments
(whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition),
the Mortgagor may elect to pay such Imposition in such installments and shall be
responsible for the payment of such installments with interest, if any.

                        (b) Nothing  herein  shall affect any right or remedy of
            the Mortgagee  under this Mortgage or otherwise,  without  notice or
            demand to the Mortgagor,  to pay any Imposition  after the date such
            Imposition  shall have become due,  and add to the  Obligations  the
            amount so paid,  together  with interest from the time of payment at
            the Overdue Rate. Any sums paid by the Mortgagee in discharge of any
            Impositions shall be (i) a lien on the Premises secured hereby prior
            to any right or title to,  interest  in, or claim upon the  Premises
            subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage, and (ii) payable on demand
            by the  Mortgagor to the  Mortgagee  together  with  interest at the
            Overdue Rate as set forth above.

                        (c) As of the date hereof, the Mortgagor  represents and
            warrants  that the  Mortgagor  (i) has  filed  all  federal,  state,
            commonwealth,  county,  municipal and city income and other material
            tax returns required to have been filed by it and has paid all taxes
            and other  impositions  which  have  become due or  pursuant  to any
            assessments  or charges  received  by it,  (ii) does not know of any
            basis for any additional assessment or charge in respect of any such
            taxes  or other  Impositions,  and  (iii)  has paid in full all sums
            owing or claimed for labor,  material,  supplies,  personal property
            (whether or not forming an  Improvement  hereunder)  and services of

                                       5

            every kind and character  used,  furnished or installed in or on the
            Mortgaged  Property that are now due and owing and no claim for same
            exists or will be permitted to be created, except such claims as may
            arise in the  ordinary  course of business and that are not yet past
            due.

            5.  INSURANCE.  (a) The  Mortgagor  promptly  shall  comply with and
conform in all material  respects to (i) all  provisions of each such  insurance
policy, and (ii) all requirements of the insurers applicable to the Mortgagor or
to any of the  Mortgaged  Property  or to the  use,  manner  of use,  occupancy,
possession, operation, maintenance, alteration or repair of any of the Mortgaged
Property.  The  Mortgagor  shall  not use or  permit  the  use of the  Mortgaged
Property in any manner  which would  permit any insurer to cancel any  insurance
policy or void coverage required to be maintained by this Mortgage.

                        (b) In the  event of  foreclosure  of this  Mortgage  or
            other transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property,  all right, title
            and interest of the Mortgagor in and to any insurance  policies then
            in force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee.

            6. RESTRICTIONS ON LIENS AND ENCUMBRANCES.  Except for the Permitted
Liens,  the Mortgagor  shall not further  mortgage,  nor otherwise  encumber the
Mortgaged Property nor create or suffer to exist any lien, charge or encumbrance
on the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof,  whether superior or subordinate
to the lien of this Mortgage and whether recourse or non-recourse.

            7. DUE ON SALE AND OTHER TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.  Except as expressly
permitted in the Collateral Agreements,  the Mortgagor shall not sell, transfer,
convey or assign  all or any  portion  of, or any  interest  in,  the  Mortgaged
Property.

            8. CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION/EMINENT DOMAIN. Immediately upon obtaining
knowledge  of  any  casualty  or the  institution  of any  proceedings  for  the
condemnation of the Mortgaged  Property,  or any material portion  thereof,  the
Mortgagor will notify the Mortgagee of the pendency of such proceedings.  In all
events,  the Mortgagor hereby  covenants and agrees to promptly  commence and to
diligently  prosecute  the  restoration  of  the  Mortgaged  Property  upon  the
occurrence of any casualty loss affecting the Mortgaged Property, without regard
to the  availability  of any proceeds or award.  Notwithstanding  any damage to,
destruction  or loss of or other  casualty  with respect to any of the Mortgaged
Property, the Mortgagor shall continue to pay the Obligations at the time and in
the manner  provided for in the Indenture and the other  Collateral  Agreements,
until the Obligations have been paid in full. If the Mortgaged Property is sold,
through foreclosure or otherwise,  prior to the receipt by the Mortgagee of such
insurance  proceeds,  the  Mortgagee  shall  have the  right,  whether  or not a
deficiency  judgment  on  any  Collateral  Agreement  shall  have  been  sought,
recovered or denied,  to receive such insurance  proceeds,  or a portion thereof
sufficient to pay the then unpaid Obligations, whichever is less.

            9. LEASES.  Except as expressly  permitted under the Indenture,  the
Mortgagor shall not (a) execute an assignment or pledge of any Lease relating to
all or any  portion  of the  Mortgaged  Property  other  than  in  favor  of the
Mortgagee,  (b)  execute  or permit  to exist any Lease of any of the  Mortgaged
Property,  or (c) mortgage,  pledge,  assign,  hypothecate,  amend,  modify,  or
otherwise encumber or transfer any Lease or any interest in any Lease.

                                       6

            10. FURTHER  ASSURANCES.  To further assure the  Mortgagee's  rights
under this Mortgage,  the Mortgagor agrees promptly upon demand of the Mortgagee
to do any  act or  execute  and  deliver,  record  and/or  file  any  additional
documents (including,  but not limited to, security agreements on any personalty
included or to be included in the Mortgaged  Property and a separate  assignment
of each Lease in recordable form) as may be reasonably required by the Mortgagee
to confirm the lien of this Mortgage and all other rights or benefits  conferred
on the Mortgagee by this Mortgage.

            11.  MORTGAGEE'S  RIGHT  TO  PERFORM.  If an Event  of  Default  has
occurred and is  continuing,  the  Mortgagee,  without  waiving or releasing the
Mortgagor  from any  obligation  or default  under this  Mortgage,  may,  pay or
perform the same,  and the amount or cost thereof,  with interest at the Overdue
Rate,  shall  immediately  upon written  demand be due from the Mortgagor to the
Mortgagee  and the same shall be secured by this Mortgage and shall be a lien on
the Mortgaged  Property prior to any right, title to, interest in, or claim upon
the Mortgaged  Property  attaching  subsequent to the lien of this Mortgage.  No
payment or advance of money by the Mortgagee  under this Section shall be deemed
or construed to cure the Mortgagor's default or waive any right or remedy of the
Mortgagee.

            12. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.  The  occurrence of an Event of Default under
any of the Collateral Agreements shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

            13. REMEDIES.  (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default,  the Mortgagee may immediately  take such action,  without
notice or demand,  under the  Collateral  Agreements  and  otherwise as it deems
advisable to protect and enforce its rights  against the Mortgagor and in and to
the Mortgaged  Property,  including,  but not limited to, the following actions,
each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such
manner as the Mortgagee may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing
or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of the Mortgagee:

            (i) The Mortgagee  may, to the extent  permitted by applicable  law,
(A) institute and maintain an action of mortgage  foreclosure against all or any
part of the  Mortgaged  Property,  (B)  institute  and maintain an action on the
Indenture or any other  Collateral  Agreement,  or (C) take such other action at
law or in equity for the  enforcement  of this Mortgage or any of the Collateral
Agreements as the law may allow. The Mortgagee may proceed in any such action to
final judgment and execution  thereon for all sums due hereunder,  together with
interest thereon at the Overdue Rate and all costs of suit,  including,  without
limitation,  reasonable  attorneys'  fees  and  disbursements.  Interest  at the
Overdue Rate shall be due on any  judgment  obtained by the  Mortgagee  from the
date  of  judgment  until  actual  payment  is made of the  full  amount  of the
judgment; and

            (ii) The Mortgagee may personally,  or by its agents,  attorneys and
employees  and without  regard to the adequacy or  inadequacy  of the  Mortgaged
Property or any other collateral as security for the Obligations  enter into and
upon the  Mortgaged  Property  and each and every part  thereof  and exclude the
Mortgagor and its agents and employees therefrom without liability for trespass,
damage or otherwise (the Mortgagor  hereby  agreeing to surrender  possession of
the Mortgaged  Property to the Mortgagee  upon demand at any such time) and use,
operate,  manage,  maintain  and control the  Mortgaged  Property and every part

                                       7

thereof.  Following such entry and taking of possession,  the Mortgagee shall be
entitled,  without  limitation,  (A) to  lease  all or any  part or parts of the
Mortgaged  Property  for such  periods of time and upon such  conditions  as the
Mortgagee may, in its discretion,  deem proper, (B) to enforce, cancel or modify
any Lease and (C)  generally  to execute,  do and  perform any other act,  deed,
matter or thing  concerning the Mortgaged  Property as the Mortgagee  shall deem
appropriate as fully as the Mortgagor might do.

                        (b) In case of a foreclosure  sale,  the Real Estate may
            be sold, at the Mortgagee's  election, in one parcel or in more than
            one parcel and the  Mortgagee  is  specifically  empowered  (without
            being required to do so, and in its sole and absolute discretion) to
            cause successive  sales of portions of the Mortgaged  Property to be
            held.

                        (c) In the event of any breach of any of the  covenants,
            agreements,  terms or  conditions  contained in this  Mortgage,  the
            Mortgagee  shall be  entitled  to  enjoin  such  breach  and  obtain
            specific performance of any covenant,  agreement,  term or condition
            and the Mortgagee shall have the right to invoke any equitable right
            or remedy as though  other  remedies  were not  provided for in this
            Mortgage.

                        (d) It is agreed that if an Event of Default shall occur
            and be  continuing,  any and all proceeds of the Mortgaged  Property
            received by the  Mortgagee  shall be held by the  Mortgagee  for the
            benefit  of the  Secured  Parties  as  collateral  security  for the
            Obligations (whether matured or unmatured),  and shall be applied in
            payment of the Obligations in the order set forth in Section 6.10 of
            the Indenture.

            14. RIGHT OF MORTGAGEE TO CREDIT SALE.  Upon the  occurrence  of any
sale  made  under  this  Mortgage,  by virtue of  judicial  proceedings  or of a
judgment  or  decree of  foreclosure  and sale,  the  Mortgagee  may bid for and
acquire  the  Mortgaged  Property  or any part  thereof.  In lieu of paying cash
therefor,  the Mortgagee may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting
upon the Obligations or other sums secured by this Mortgage, the net sales price
after  deducting  therefrom  the expenses of sale and the cost of the action and
any other sums which the Mortgagee is authorized to deduct under this  Mortgage.
In such event, this Mortgage,  the Indenture and the other Collateral Agreements
evidencing expenditures secured hereby may be presented to the person or persons
conducting  the sale in order that the amount so used or applied may be credited
upon the Obligations as having been paid.

            15.  APPOINTMENT  OF  RECEIVER.  If an Event of  Default  shall have
occurred  and be  continuing,  the  Mortgagee  as a matter of right and  without
notice to the  Mortgagor,  unless  otherwise  required by  applicable  law,  and
without  regard to the adequacy or inadequacy  of the Mortgaged  Property or any
other  collateral or the interest of the  Mortgagor  therein as security for the
Obligations,  shall have the right to apply to any court having  jurisdiction to
appoint a receiver or  receivers  or other  manager of the  Mortgaged  Property,
without  requiring  the posting of a surety bond,  and without  reference to the
adequacy or inadequacy of the value of the Mortgaged Property or the solvency or
insolvency of the  Mortgagor or any other party  obligated for payment of all or
any part of the Obligations,  and whether or not waste has occurred with respect
to the Mortgaged Property, and the Mortgagor hereby irrevocably consents to such
appointment  and waives  notice of any  application  therefor  (except as may be
required by law).  Any such  receiver or receivers or manager shall have all the
usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases and all the powers

                                       8

and  duties of the  Mortgagee  in case of entry as  provided  in this  Mortgage,
including,  without  limitation and to the extent permitted by law, the right to
enter  into  leases  of all or any part of the  Mortgaged  Property,  and  shall
continue as such and exercise all such powers until the date of  confirmation of
sale of the Mortgaged Property unless such receivership is sooner terminated.

            16.  EXTENSION,  RELEASE,  ETC.  (a) Without  affecting  the lien or
charge of this Mortgage  upon any portion of the Mortgaged  Property not then or
theretofore  released as security  for the full amount of the  Obligations,  the
Mortgagee  may, from time to time and without  notice,  agree to (i) release any
person liable for the  indebtedness  borrowed or guaranteed under the Collateral
Agreements,  (ii)  extend  the  maturity  or  alter  any  of  the  terms  of the
indebtedness borrowed or guaranteed under the Collateral Agreements or any other
guaranty thereof,  (iii) grant other indulgences,  (iv) release or reconvey,  or
cause to be released or  reconveyed  at any time at the  Mortgagee's  option any
parcel,  portion or all of the Mortgaged Property, (v) take or release any other
or  additional  security  for any  obligation  herein  mentioned,  or (vi)  make
compositions or other arrangements with debtors in relation thereto.

                        (b) No recovery of any judgment by the  Mortgagee and no
            levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Mortgaged  Property
            or upon any other property of the Mortgagor shall affect the lien of
            this  Mortgage  or any  liens,  rights,  powers or  remedies  of the
            Mortgagee  hereunder,  and such liens,  rights,  powers and remedies
            shall continue unimpaired.

                        (c) If the  Mortgagee  shall have the right to foreclose
            this Mortgage or to direct a power of sale, the Mortgagor authorizes
            the  Mortgagee at its option to foreclose  the lien of this Mortgage
            (or direct the sale of the Mortgaged  Property,  as the case may be)
            subject to the rights of any tenants of the Mortgaged Property.  The
            failure  to make  any such  tenants  parties  defendant  to any such
            foreclosure  proceeding and to foreclose their rights, or to provide
            notice  to such  tenants  as  required  in any  statutory  procedure
            governing a sale of the  Mortgaged  Property,  or to terminate  such
            tenant's  rights in such sale will not be asserted by the  Mortgagor
            as a  defense  to any  proceeding  instituted  by the  Mortgagee  to
            collect the Obligations or to foreclose the lien of this Mortgage.

                        (d) Unless expressly  provided  otherwise,  in the event
            that ownership of this Mortgage and title to the Mortgaged  Property
            or any estate  therein  shall  become  vested in the same  person or
            entity,  this  Mortgage  shall  not  merge in such  title  but shall
            continue as a valid lien on the  Mortgaged  Property  for the amount
            secured hereby.

            17. SECURITY  AGREEMENT UNDER UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE. (a) It is the
intention of the parties hereto that this Mortgage  shall  constitute a Security
Agreement  within the meaning of the UCC (as  defined in the Uniform  Commercial
Code of the State of New York (the  "UCC").  If an Event of Default  shall occur
and be  continuing  under this  Mortgage,  then in  addition to having any other
right or remedy  available  at law or in equity,  the  Mortgagee  shall have the
option of either (i) proceeding  under the Code and  exercising  such rights and
remedies as may be provided to a secured  party by the Code with  respect to all
or any portion of the Mortgaged Property which is personal property  (including,
without  limitation,  taking  possession  of and selling such  property) or (ii)

                                       9

treating such property as real property and proceeding  with respect to both the
real and personal  property  constituting  the Mortgaged  Property in accordance
with the  Mortgagee's  rights,  powers  and  remedies  with  respect to the real
property (in which event the default provisions of the Code shall not apply). If
the Mortgagee  shall elect to proceed  under the Code,  then ten days' notice of
sale  of the  personal  property  shall  be  deemed  reasonable  notice  and the
reasonable  expenses of retaking,  holding,  preparing for sale, selling and the
like incurred by the Mortgagee shall include,  but not be limited to, attorneys'
fees and  legal  expenses.  At the  Mortgagee's  request,  the  Mortgagor  shall
assemble the personal property and make it available to the Mortgagee at a place
designated by the Mortgagee which is reasonably convenient to both parties.

                        (b) The Mortgagor and the Mortgagee agree, to the extent
            permitted by law,  that: (i) all of the goods  described  within the
            definition of the word  "Equipment" are or are to become fixtures on
            the Real Estate;  (ii) this Mortgage upon recording or  registration
            in the real estate  records of the proper office shall  constitute a
            financing  statement filed as a "fixture  filing" within the meaning
            of Sections  9a-334 and 9a-502 of the Code;  (iii) the  Mortgagor is
            the record  owner of the Owned Land;  and (iv) the  addresses of the
            Mortgagor  and the  Mortgagee  are as set forth on the first page of
            this Mortgage.

                        (c)  The  information  provided  in  this  paragraph  is
            provided  in  order  that  this  Mortgage   shall  comply  with  the
            requirements of applicable law for a mortgage instrument to be filed
            as a financing statement. The Mortgagor is the "Debtor" and its name
            and mailing address are set forth  hereinabove.  The "Secured Party"
            is the  Mortgagee  and its  name  and  mailing  address  from  which
            information  concerning the security  interest granted herein may be
            obtained are as set forth  hereinabove.  A statement  describing the
            portion  of the  Mortgaged  Property  comprising  of  goods or other
            personal  property  that  may now be or  hereafter  become  fixtures
            hereby  secured  is set forth in the  description  of the  Mortgaged
            Property  contained herein. The Mortgagor is the record owner of the
            Mortgaged Property.

                        (d) After  written  request,  Mortgagor  shall  file all
            financing  statements  necessary  to perfect  the  Mortgagee's  lien
            thereon.  Additionally,   Mortgagor  authorizes  Mortgagee  to  file
            financing  statements  describing  the  Mortgaged  Property  on  the
            Mortgagors  behalf;   provided  that  the  Mortgagee  shall  not  be
            responsible   for  the  filing  of  any  financing  or  continuation
            statement.

            18. FUTURE  ADVANCES.  The lien of this Mortgage with respect to any
future   advances   and/or   obligations   up  to  a  maximum  of   $65,000,000,
modifications, extensions, and renewals referred to herein and made from time to
time shall have the same  priority  to which this  Mortgage  otherwise  would be
entitled as of the date this Mortgage is executed and recorded without regard to
the fact that any such future advance, obligation,  modification,  extension, or
renewal may occur after this Mortgage is executed.

            19.  ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS.  (a) The Mortgagor  hereby  assigns to the
Mortgagee the Rents as further  security for the payment of and  performance  of
the  Obligations,  and the Mortgagor  grants to the Mortgagee the right to enter
the  Mortgaged  Property for the purpose of  collecting  the same and to let the
Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, and to apply the Rents on account of the

                                       10

Obligations.  The foregoing  assignment  and grant is present,  irrevocable  and
absolute and shall continue in effect until the  Obligations  are fully paid and
performed,  but the Mortgagee hereby grants the Mortgagor a revocable license to
collect,  receive,  use and retain the Rents until the occurrence of an Event of
Default;  such  license to collect,  receive,  use and retain the Rents shall be
immediately and automatically  revoked by the Mortgagee without the necessity of
any action of the Mortgagee upon the  occurrence  and during the  continuance of
any Event of Default; in the event such license is revoked,  the Mortgagor shall
pay over to the  Mortgagee,  or to any receiver  appointed to collect the Rents,
any lease security deposits,  and shall pay monthly in advance to the Mortgagee,
or to any such receiver,  the fair and reasonable  rental value as determined by
the Mortgagee  for the use and occupancy of such part of the Mortgaged  Property
as may be in the  possession of the Mortgagor or any affiliate of the Mortgagor,
and upon default in any such payment the Mortgagor and any such  affiliate  will
vacate and surrender the  possession of the Mortgaged  Property to the Mortgagee
or to  such  receiver,  and  in  default  thereof  may  be  evicted  by  summary
proceedings  or  otherwise.  The  Mortgagor  shall  not  accept  prepayments  of
installments  of Rent to  become  due for a period  of more  than  one  month in
advance (except for security deposits and estimated payments of percentage rent,
if any).

                        (b) The  Mortgagor  has not  affirmatively  done any act
            which would prevent the  Mortgagee  from, or limit the Mortgagee in,
            acting under any of the provisions of the foregoing assignment.

                        (c) Except for any matter  disclosed  in the  Collateral
            Agreements, no action has been brought or, so far as is known to the
            Mortgagor, is threatened,  which would interfere in any way with the
            right of the  Mortgagor  to execute  the  foregoing  assignment  and
            perform all of the Mortgagor's obligations contained in this Section
            and in the Leases.

            20.  ADDITIONAL  RIGHTS.  The  holder  of any  subordinate  lien  or
subordinate  mortgage on the Mortgaged Property shall have no right to terminate
any Lease  whether or not such Lease is  subordinate  to this Mortgage nor shall
the  Mortgagor  consent to any  holder of any  subordinate  lien or  subordinate
mortgage  joining any tenant under any Lease in any action to foreclose the lien
or modify,  interfere with,  disturb or terminate the rights of any tenant under
any Lease. By recordation of this Mortgage all  subordinate  lienholders and the
mortgagees  and  beneficiaries  under  subordinate  mortgages are subject to and
notified  of this  provision,  and any action  taken by any such  lienholder  or
beneficiary  contrary  to this  provision  shall  be null  and  void.  Upon  the
occurrence  and during the  continuance  of any Event of Default,  the Mortgagee
may, in its sole  discretion  and without regard to the adequacy of its security
under this  Mortgage,  apply all or any part of any amounts on deposit  with the
Mortgagee under this Mortgage  against all or any part of the  Obligations.  Any
such application shall not be construed to cure or waive any Default or Event of
Default or invalidate  any act taken by the Mortgagee on account of such Default
or Event of Default.

            21.  MORTGAGOR'S  INDEMNITIES.  The  Mortgagor  agrees  to  protect,
indemnify and hold harmless the Mortgagee and each Secured Party  (collectively,
the  "INDEMNITEES")  from and against any and all losses which the  Mortgagee or
any such Indemnitee may incur under or by reason of the assignment of Leases and
Rents,  or for any action  taken by the  Mortgagee  or any Lender or  Indemnitee

                                       11

hereunder,  or by  reason  or in  defense  of any and  all  claims  and  demands
whatsoever  which may be asserted  against the Mortgagee or any such  Indemnitee
arising out of the Leases, including, without limitation, any claim by any third
Person for credit on account of Rents paid to and received by the Mortgagor, but
not delivered to the Mortgagee or its agents,  representatives or employees, for
any  period  under any Lease  more than one (1) month in advance of the due date
thereof.  In the event that the Mortgagee or any of the Secured  Parties  incurs
any  losses  covered  by the  indemnity  set forth in this  Section,  the amount
thereof,  including  reasonable  attorneys'  fees, with interest  thereon at the
Overdue Rate, shall be payable by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee within ten (10)
days  after  demand  therefor,  and  shall be  secured  hereby  and by all other
security for the payment and performance of the Obligations,  including, without
limitation,  the lien and security interest of this Mortgage. The liabilities of
the Mortgagor as set forth in this Section shall survive the termination of this
Mortgage and the repayment of the Obligations.

            22. NO  LIABILITY  OF  MORTGAGEE.  Neither  the  acceptance  nor the
exercise of the rights and remedies  hereunder  nor any other action on the part
of Mortgagee or any Person  exercising  Mortgagee's  rights  hereunder  shall be
construed  to:  (a) be an  assumption  by  Mortgagee  or any such  Person  or to
otherwise  make  Mortgagee  or  such  Person  liable  or  responsible   for  the
performance of any of the  obligations of Mortgagor under or with respect to the
Leases or for any Rent, security deposit or other amount delivered to Mortgagor,
provided that  Mortgagee or any such Person  exercising  the rights of Mortgagee
shall be accountable for any Rents,  security deposits or other amounts actually
received  by  Mortgagee  or such  Person,  as the case may be;  or (b)  obligate
Mortgagee  or any such  Person to take any action  under or with  respect to the
Leases or with  respect  to the  Mortgaged  Property,  to incur any  expense  or
perform or discharge any duty or obligation  under or with respect to the Leases
or with respect to the Mortgaged Property,  to appear in or defend any action or
proceeding  relating  to the Leases or the  Mortgaged  Property,  to  constitute
Mortgagee as a  mortgagee-in-possession  (unless  Mortgagee  actually enters and
takes possession of the Mortgaged Property),  or to be liable in any way for any
injury or damage to Persons or property  sustained by any Person in or about the
Mortgaged Property, other than to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or
gross  negligence of Mortgagee or any Person  exercising the rights of Mortgagee
hereunder.

            23. NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands and other communications
hereunder  shall be given in accordance  with the  provisions of the  Collateral
Agreements to the Mortgagor and to the Mortgagee as specified therein.

            24.  NO  ORAL  MODIFICATION.  This  Mortgage  may  not  be  amended,
supplemented  or otherwise  modified except in accordance with the provisions of
the Collateral Agreements. Any agreement made by the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee
after the date of this Mortgage  relating to this Mortgage  shall be superior to
the rights of the holder of any intervening or subordinate lien or encumbrance.

            25.  PARTIAL  INVALIDITY.  In  the  event  any  one or  more  of the
provisions  contained  in  this  Mortgage  shall  for any  reason  be held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability  shall not affect any other provision hereof, but each shall be
construed as if such invalid,  illegal or unenforceable provision had never been
included. Notwithstanding to the contrary anything contained in this Mortgage or

                                       12

in any provisions of any Collateral Agreement,  the obligations of the Mortgagor
and of any other obligor under any Collateral Agreements shall be subject to the
limitation that the Mortgagee shall not charge,  take or receive,  nor shall the
Mortgagor or any other obligor be obligated to pay to the Mortgagee, any amounts
constituting  interest  in excess of the  maximum  rate  permitted  by law to be
charged by the Mortgagee.

            26.   MORTGAGOR'S   WAIVER  OF  RIGHTS.  (a)  The  Mortgagor  hereby
voluntarily  and  knowingly  releases  and  waives  any and all rights to retain
possession of the Mortgaged Property after the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder  and any and all  rights of  redemption  from sale  under any order or
decree of  foreclosure  (whether full or partial),  pursuant to rights,  if any,
therein  granted,  as allowed under any  applicable  law, on its own behalf,  on
behalf of all persons  claiming or having an interest (direct or indirectly) by,
through or under each  constituent  of the  Mortgagor  and on behalf of each and
every person acquiring any interest in the Mortgaged Property  subsequent to the
date  hereof,  it being  the  intent  hereof  that any and all  such  rights  or
redemption of each  constituent  of the Mortgagor and all such other persons are
and shall be deemed to be hereby  waived  to the  fullest  extent  permitted  by
applicable law or replacement  statute.  Each constituent of the Mortgagor shall
not invoke or utilize any such law or laws or otherwise hinder, delay, or impede
the  execution of any right,  power,  or remedy  herein or otherwise  granted or
delegated to the Mortgagee,  but shall permit the execution of every such right,
power, and remedy as though no such law or laws had been made or enacted.

                        (b)  To  the  fullest  extent   permitted  by  law,  the
            Mortgagor  waives the  benefit of all laws now  existing or that may
            subsequently be enacted  providing for (i) any  appraisement  before
            sale of any portion of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) any extension of
            the time for the enforcement of the collection of the Obligations or
            the creation or extension  of a period of  redemption  from any sale
            made in  collecting  such debt and (iii)  exemption of the Mortgaged
            Property from attachment,  levy or sale under execution or exemption
            from civil process.  To the full extent the Mortgagor may do so, the
            Mortgagor  agrees  that the  Mortgagor  will not at any time  insist
            upon,  plead,  claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now
            or hereafter in force  providing  for any  appraisement,  valuation,
            stay, exemption,  extension or redemption,  or requiring foreclosure
            of  this  Mortgage  before   exercising  any  other  remedy  granted
            hereunder and the  Mortgagor,  for the Mortgagor and its  successors
            and assigns,  and for any and all persons ever claiming any interest
            in the Mortgaged  Property,  to the extent  permitted by law, hereby
            waives   and   releases   all  rights  of   redemption,   valuation,
            appraisement,  stay of  execution,  notice  of  election  to  mature
            (except as  expressly  provided  in the  Collateral  Agreements)  or
            declare due the whole of the secured indebtedness and marshalling in
            the event of exercise by the  Mortgagee of the  foreclosure  rights,
            power of sale, or other rights hereby created.

            27.  REMEDIES  NOT  EXCLUSIVE.  The  Mortgagee  shall be entitled to
enforce  payment and  performance of the  Obligations and to exercise all rights
and powers under this Mortgage or under any of the other  Collateral  Agreements
or other agreement or any laws now or hereafter in force,  notwithstanding  some
or all of the Obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured,  whether by
deed of  trust,  mortgage,  security  agreement,  pledge,  lien,  assignment  or
otherwise.  Neither the acceptance of this Mortgage nor its  enforcement,  shall
prejudice  or in any manner  affect the  Mortgagee's  rights to realize  upon or
enforce any other  security now or  hereafter  held by the  Mortgagee,  it being
agreed that the  Mortgagee  shall be entitled to enforce  this  Mortgage and any

                                       13

other  security now or hereafter  held by the Mortgagee in such order and manner
as the  Mortgagee  may  determine in its absolute  discretion.  No remedy herein
conferred  upon or reserved to the  Mortgagee is intended to be exclusive of any
other  remedy  herein  or by law  provided  or  permitted,  but  each  shall  be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now
or hereafter  existing at law or in equity or by statute.  Every power or remedy
given by any of the  Collateral  Agreements  to the Mortgagee or to which either
may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from
time to time and as often as may be deemed  expedient by the  Mortgagee,  as the
case may be. In no event shall the  Mortgagee,  in the  exercise of the remedies
provided in this Mortgage (including, without limitation, in connection with the
assignment of Rents to the Mortgagee,  or the  appointment of a receiver and the
entry of such  receiver  on to all or any part of the  Mortgaged  Property),  be
deemed a "mortgagee in  possession,"  and the Mortgagee  shall not in any way be
made liable for any act,  either of commission or omission,  in connection  with
the exercise of such remedies.

            28. MULTIPLE  SECURITY.  If (a) the Premises shall consist of one or
more parcels,  whether or not  contiguous and whether or not located in the same
county,  or (b) in  addition  to  this  Mortgage,  the  Mortgagee  shall  now or
hereafter hold or be the beneficiary of one or more additional mortgages, liens,
deeds of trust or other security  (directly or indirectly)  for the  Obligations
upon other  property in the State in which the Premises are located  (whether or
not such  property  is  owned by the  Mortgagor  or by  others)  or (c) both the
circumstances  described  in  clauses  (a) and (b)  shall be  true,  then to the
fullest extent permitted by law, the Mortgagee may, at its election, commence or
consolidate in a single foreclosure action all foreclosure  proceedings  against
all such collateral securing the Obligations (including the Mortgaged Property),
which action may be brought or  consolidated in the courts of, or sale conducted
in,  any  county in which  any of such  collateral  is  located.  The  Mortgagor
acknowledges that the right to maintain a consolidated  foreclosure  action is a
specific  inducement  to the  Mortgagee  to  extend  the  indebtedness  borrowed
pursuant  to or  guaranteed  by the  Collateral  Agreements,  and the  Mortgagor
expressly  and  irrevocably   waives  any  objections  to  the  commencement  or
consolidation  of  the  foreclosure  proceedings  in a  single  action  and  any
objections  to the  laying  of  venue  or based  on the  grounds  of  forum  non
conveniens which it may now or hereafter have. The Mortgagor further agrees that
if  the  Mortgagee  shall  be  prosecuting  one or  more  foreclosure  or  other
proceedings  against  a  portion  of  the  Mortgaged  Property  or  against  any
collateral  other than the  Mortgaged  Property,  which  collateral  directly or
indirectly  secures the  Obligations,  or if the Mortgagee shall have obtained a
judgment of foreclosure and sale or similar  judgment  against such  collateral,
then,  whether or not such  proceedings  are being  maintained or judgments were
obtained  in or  outside  the  State in which  the  Premises  are  located,  the
Mortgagee may commence or continue any foreclosure  proceedings and exercise its
other remedies granted in this Mortgage against all or any part of the Mortgaged
Property  and  the  Mortgagor  waives  any  objections  to the  commencement  or
continuation of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or exercise of any other remedies
hereunder based on such other proceedings or judgments,  and waives any right to
seek to dismiss,  stay, remove,  transfer or consolidate either any action under
this Mortgage or such other proceedings on such basis.  Neither the commencement
nor continuation of proceedings to foreclose this Mortgage,  nor the exercise of
any other rights  hereunder nor the recovery of any judgment by the Mortgagee in
any such proceedings or the occurrence of any sale in any such proceedings shall
prejudice,  limit or preclude the Mortgagee's  right to commence or continue one

                                       14

or more foreclosure or other  proceedings or obtain a judgment against any other
collateral  (either in or outside the State in which the  Premises  are located)
which  directly  or  indirectly  secures  the  Obligations,  and  the  Mortgagor
expressly  waives any objections to the  commencement  of,  continuation  of, or
entry of a judgment  in such  other  sales or  proceedings  or  exercise  of any
remedies  in such  sales or  proceedings  based  upon  any  action  or  judgment
connected to this  Mortgage,  and the Mortgagor also waives any right to seek to
dismiss,  stay,  remove,  transfer  or  consolidate  either  such other sales or
proceedings  or any sale or action  under this  Mortgage  on such  basis.  It is
expressly understood and agreed that to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
Mortgagee may, at its election,  cause the sale of all  collateral  which is the
subject of a single  foreclosure  action at either a single  sale or at multiple
sales conducted  simultaneously  and take such other measures as are appropriate
in order to effect the agreement of the parties to dispose of and administer all
collateral  securing  the  Obligations  (directly  or  indirectly)  in the  most
economical and least time-consuming manner.

            29. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants of the Mortgagor contained
in this  Mortgage  are  imposed  solely and  exclusively  for the benefit of the
Mortgagee,  and its successors and assigns,  and no other person or entity shall
have standing to require compliance with such covenants or be deemed,  under any
circumstances, to be a beneficiary of such covenants, any or all of which may be
freely  waived in whole or in part by the  Mortgagee  at any time if in the sole
discretion of Mortgagee such a waiver is deemed advisable. All such covenants of
the Mortgagor shall run with the land and bind the Mortgagor, the successors and
assigns  of the  Mortgagor  (and  each  of  them)  and  all  subsequent  owners,
encumbrances  and  tenants of the  Mortgaged  Property,  and shall  inure to the
benefit of the Mortgagee and its  successors and assigns.  The word  "Mortgagor"
shall  be  construed  as if it read  "Mortgagors"  whenever  the  sense  of this
Mortgage  so  requires  and if there  shall  be more  than  one  Mortgagor,  the
obligations of the Mortgagors shall be joint and several.

            30. NO WAIVERS, ETC. Any failure by the Mortgagee to insist upon the
strict  performance  by the Mortgagor of any of the terms and provisions of this
Mortgage  shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the terms and  provisions
hereof,  and the  Mortgagee,  notwithstanding  any such failure,  shall have the
right  thereafter to insist upon the strict  performance by the Mortgagor of any
and all of the terms and  provisions  of this  Mortgage to be  performed  by the
Mortgagor.  The Mortgagee may release,  regardless of consideration  and without
the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien
on the Mortgaged  Property,  any part of the security  held for the  obligations
secured by this Mortgage  without,  as to the remainder of the security,  in any
way  impairing  or affecting  the lien of this  Mortgage or the priority of such
lien over any subordinate lien or deed of trust.

            31.  GOVERNING  LAW,  ETC.  This  Mortgage  shall be governed by and
construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

            32.  CERTAIN  DEFINITIONS.  Unless the context  clearly  indicates a
contrary intent or unless otherwise  specifically provided herein, words used in
this Mortgage shall be used  interchangeably  in singular or plural form and the
word "Mortgagor" shall mean "each Mortgagor or any subsequent owner or owners of
the  Mortgaged  Property  or any part  thereof or  interest  therein,"  the word
"Mortgagee"  shall  mean  "Mortgagee  or any  successor  agent  for the  Secured
Parties,"  the  word  "person"  shall  include  any   individual,   corporation,
partnership,  limited  liability  company,  trust,  unincorporated  association,
government,  governmental  authority,  or other entity, and the words "Mortgaged

                                       15

Property"  shall  include  any  portion of the  Mortgaged  Property  or interest
therein.  Whenever  the context may  require,  any  pronouns  used herein  shall
include the corresponding masculine,  feminine or neuter forms, and the singular
form of nouns and pronouns shall include the plural and vice versa. The captions
in this Mortgage are for  convenience  or reference  only and in no way limit or
amplify the provisions hereof.

            33. MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF INDEBTEDNESS.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary  in  this  Mortgage,   the  maximum   aggregate   principal  amount  of
indebtedness that is, or under any contingency may be, secured by this Mortgage,
either  at  execution  or any  time  thereafter  (the  "SECURED  AMOUNT"),  is $
[65,000,000.00],  plus amounts that Mortgagee expends under this Mortgage to the
extent that any such amounts shall constitute  payment of (i) taxes,  charges or
assessments  that  may be  imposed  by law  upon the  Mortgaged  Property,  (ii)
premiums on insurance policies covering the Mortgaged  Property;  (iii) expenses
incurred in upholding the lien of this  Mortgage,  including the expenses of any
litigation to prosecute or defend the rights and lien created by this  Mortgage;
or (iv) any amount, cost or charge to which Mortgagee becomes  subrogated,  upon
payment,  whether under recognized principles of law or equity, or under express
statutory  authority;  THEN,  and in each such  event,  such  amounts  or costs,
together  with  interest  thereon,  shall be added to the  indebtedness  secured
hereby and shall be secured by this Mortgage.

            34. LAST DOLLARS  SECURED;  PRIORITY.  This Mortgage  secures only a
portion of the indebtedness  owing or which may become owing by the Mortgagor to
the Secured  Parties.  The parties agree that any payments or repayments of such
indebtedness  shall be and be deemed to be applied  first to the  portion of the
indebtedness  that is not secured hereby,  it being the parties' intent that the
portion of the indebtedness last remaining unpaid shall be secured hereby. If at
any time this Mortgage shall secure less than all of the principal amount of the
Obligations,  it is expressly agreed that any repayments of the principal amount
of the  Obligations  shall not reduce  the  amount of the lien of this  Mortgage
until the lien  amount  shall  equal  the  principal  amount of the  Obligations
outstanding.

            35.  RELEASE.  If any of  the  Mortgaged  Property  shall  be  sold,
transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Mortgagor in a transaction permitted
by, and in accordance with, the Collateral  Agreements,  then the Mortgagee,  at
the request and sole  expense of such  Mortgagor,  shall  execute and deliver to
such Mortgagor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable
for the release of the Liens  created  hereby on such  Mortgaged  Property.  The
Mortgagor shall deliver to the Mortgagee,  at least ten (10) Business Days prior
to the date of the proposed release,  a written request for release  identifying
the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail,  including the price thereof
and any expenses in connection  therewith,  together with a certification by the
Mortgagor stating that such transaction is in compliance with, and permitted by,
the Indenture and the other Collateral Agreements.

            36.  INCONSISTENCY  WITH  INDENTURE.  In the  event of any  conflict
between the terms of this  Mortgage  and the terms of the  Indenture  and/or the
other  Collateral  Agreements,  the terms of the Indenture,  first and the other
Collateral Agreements, second, shall govern and control.

                                       16

            37.  INDENTURE.  Mortgagor  has  received  a copy  of  and is  fully
familiar with the terms and provisions of the Indenture and the other Collateral
Agreements.  All  representations  and  warranties  made  by  Mortgagor  in  the
Indenture  and the  other  Collateral  Agreements  are  incorporated  herein  by
reference  and are  hereby  made by  Mortgagor  as to itself  and the  Mortgaged
Property as though such  representations and warranties were set forth at length
herein as the representations and warranties of Mortgagor.

            38.  NO MERGER OF  ESTATES.  So long as any part of the  Obligations
remain unpaid,  unperformed  or  undercharged,  the fee,  easement and leasehold
estates  to the  Mortgaged  Property  shall not merge but  rather  shall  remain
separate and distinct,  notwithstanding  the union of such estates either in the
Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, any lessee, any third-party purchaser or otherwise.

            39. NO PARTNERSHIP.  Nothing  contained in this Mortgage is intended
to, or shall be construed to, create to any extent and in any manner  whatsoever
any  partnership,  joint venture,  or association  between the Mortgagor and the
Mortgagee,  or in any way make the Mortgagee a  co-principal  with the Mortgagor
with reference to the Mortgaged Property, and any inferences to the contrary are
hereby expressly negated.

            40. LIMITATION OF AMOUNT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum
principal  amount of  indebtedness  that may be secured by this  Mortgage is the
Maximum  Principal  Amount as set forth on the cover of this  Mortgage,  and the
maximum  total  amount  that may be secured by this  Mortgage  is limited as set
forth in SECTION 33.

            41. FUTURE  ASSIGNMENTS.  If Mortgagor  obtains  mortgage  financing
secured  by the  Mortgaged  Property  and  the  proceeds  of such  new  mortgage
financing  are  applied  to repay  the  Obligations  in  full,  then in place of
delivering a discharge, satisfaction, or release of this Mortgage, the Mortgagee
shall at  Mortgagor's  request,  deliver to the new lender an assignment of this
Mortgage,  all in form  reasonably  satisfactory  to Mortgagee.  Effective  upon
Mortgagee's  assignment of this Mortgage,  the Mortgagee  shall be released from
any remaining  obligations  and  liabilities  under the Indenture and Collateral
Agreements.

            42.  LIEN LAW.  This  Mortgage  is made  subject  to the trust  fund
provisions of Section 13 of the New York Lien Law.  Mortgagor  covenants that it
shall  receive all monies and advances  secured by this  Mortgage and shall hold
the right to receive such  advances as a trust fund to be applied  first for the
purpose of paying the cost of improvement  before using any part of the same for
any other purpose.

            43. STATUTORY  INTERPRETATION.  The covenants and conditions in this
Mortgage shall be construed as affording to Mortgagee rights  additional to, and
not exclusive  of, the rights  conferred  under the  provisions of New York Real
Property Law Sections 254, 271 and 272;  provided  Mortgagor shall have received
notice required under the Indenture.  The following  provisions of New York Real
Property  Law Section 254 shall,  however,  not apply to this  Mortgage  and the
rights and  obligations  of the parties to this Mortgage:  (1)  subsection  "4,"
covering the use and  application of casualty or flood insurance  proceeds;  and
(2) the portion of  subsection  "4-a" that begins  with the word  "however"  and

                                       17

continues to the end of the paragraph.  Any inconsistency  between this Mortgage
and Real Property Law Section 254, 271 or 272 shall be resolved in favor of this
Mortgage.

            44.  POWER OF  SALE.  If an Event of  Default  has  occurred  and is
continuing,  then without  limiting  any other rights or remedies of  Mortgagee,
Mortgagee  may,  either  with or  without  entry  or  taking  possession  of the
Mortgaged  Property as provided in this Mortgage or otherwise,  personally or by
its agents or attorneys,  and without  prejudice to the right to bring an action
for foreclosure of this Mortgage,  sell the Mortgaged Property or any part of it
pursuant to any procedures  provided by applicable law, including the procedures
set forth in New York Real Property  Actions and Proceedings Law Article 14 (and
any amendments or substitute statutes in regard thereto), and all estate, right,
title, interest,  claim, and demand therein, and right of redemption thereof, at
one or more sales as an entirety, or in parcels, and at such time and place upon
such terms and after such  notice  thereof as may be required  or  permitted  by
applicable law.

            45. MULTIPLE PARCELS. If the Mortgaged Property consists of multiple
parcels,  then in any sale of the  Mortgaged  Property  pursuant to  Mortgagee's
exercise  of its  remedies  after an Event of Default  (including  any  judicial
foreclosure  sale under Real Property  Actions and  Proceedings Law Article 14),
the multiple  parcels shall be sold at one time and in a single sale,  except to
the extent that Mortgagee,  in its sole absolute discretion,  determines to sell
any one or more of the parcel(s) separately. Any such separate sales may be made
in whatever  order  Mortgagee  determines  in its sole and absolute  discretion.
Mortgagee may, in its sole and absolute  discretion,  cause the entire Mortgaged
Property to be offered for sale as a single  auction lot and may also cause bids
to be solicited for  individual  parcels of the  Mortgaged  Property as separate
auction lots in any order, but shall be under no obligation to proceed in either
manner or the other.  Mortgagor  acknowledges  that if Mortgagee  sells multiple
parcels  individually,  no fair value or  deficiency  hearing  shall be required
after each sale.

            46.   HEADINGS.   The  Section  headings  herein  are  inserted  for
convenience of reference only and shall in no way alter, modify or define, or be
used in construing, the text of such Sections.

            47.  DEFENSE OF CLAIMS.  The  Mortgagor  shall  promptly  notify the
Mortgagee in writing of the commencement of any legal proceedings  affecting the
Mortgagor's  title  to the  Mortgaged  Property  or the  Mortgagee's  Lien on or
security interest in the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, and shall take
all such  action,  employing  attorneys  agreeable to the  Mortgagee,  as may be
necessary  to preserve  the  Mortgagor's  and the  Mortgagee's  rights  affected
thereby.  If the Mortgagor fails or refuses to adequately or vigorously,  in the
sole judgment of the Mortgagee, defend the Mortgagor's or the Mortgagee's rights
to the Mortgaged  Property,  the Mortgagee may take such action on behalf of and
in the name of the Mortgagor and at the Mortgagor's expense. All costs, expenses
and attorneys'  fees incurred by the Mortgagee (or its agents)  pursuant to this
Section or in  connection  with the  defense  by the  Mortgagee  of any  claims,
demands or litigation  relating to the Mortgagor,  the Mortgaged Property or the
transactions  contemplated  in this Mortgage shall be paid by the Mortgagor upon
written  demand,  plus  interest  thereon  from the date of the  advance  by the
Mortgagee until reimbursement of the Mortgagee at the Overdue Rate.

3.10 (as such  schedule  may be amended from time to time by such Debtor and, to
the extent  required  by SECTION 2.7  consented  to by the  Collateral  Agent as

                                       14

evidenced  by  the  execution  and  delivery  by  such  Debtor,  the  applicable
securities intermediary or bank and the Collateral Agent of a Control Agreement)
is a listing of all of such Debtor's Deposit  Accounts and Securities  Accounts,
including, with respect to each bank or securities intermediary (a) the name and
address of such Person,  and (b) the account numbers of the Deposit  Accounts or
Securities Accounts maintained with such Person.

4.          AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

            Each Debtor  covenants and agrees that, until payment in full of the
Obligations   (other  than  contingent   indemnification   obligations)  or  the
occurrence  of the  Collateral  Release  Event,  such Debtor shall do all of the
following:

            4.1  MAINTENANCE  OF  PROPERTIES.  Maintain  and preserve all of its
properties  which are necessary or useful in the proper  conduct to its business
in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and comply
at all times with the  provisions of all material  leases to which it is a party
as lessee, so as to prevent any loss or forfeiture thereof or thereunder.

            4.2 INSURANCE.

            (a) At such Debtor's  expense,  maintain  insurance  respecting  its
assets wherever located,  covering loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, and
all other  hazards  and risks and in such  amounts  as  ordinarily  are  insured
against by other Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses.  Such Debtor
also  shall  maintain  business  interruption,  public  liability,  and  product
liability  insurance,  as well as insurance against larceny,  embezzlement,  and
criminal misappropriation. Such Debtor shall deliver copies of all such policies
or certificates of insurance evidencing the same to the Collateral Agent with an
endorsement  naming the  Collateral  Agent as loss payee  (under a  satisfactory
lender's loss payable  endorsement) or additional insured, as appropriate.  Each
policy of insurance or endorsement  shall contain a clause requiring the insurer
to give not less than 30 days prior written  notice to the  Collateral  Agent in
the event of cancellation of any such policy for any reason whatsoever.

            (b) Such Debtor shall give the Collateral Agent prompt notice of any
loss in an amount in excess of $20,000 covered by such insurance. If an Event of
Default shall have occurred and is outstanding,  the Collateral Agent shall have
the exclusive  right (but not the obligation) to adjust any losses claimed under
any such insurance policies,  without any liability to such Debtor whatsoever in
respect of such  adjustments.  Any monies received as payment for any loss under
any insurance policy mentioned above (other than liability  insurance  policies)
or as payment of any award or compensation for condemnation or taking by eminent
domain, shall be deposited into a Deposit Account of such Debtor with respect to
which a Control  Agreement is in effect unless directed by the Collateral  Agent
to be paid  over to the  Collateral  Agent at any time an  Event of  Default  is
outstanding,  in which case,  such payment shall be paid over to the  Collateral
Agent.

            (c) Such Debtor will not take out separate  insurance  concurrent in
form or  contributing  in the event of loss with that  required to be maintained
under this SECTION 4.2,  unless the Collateral  Agent is included  thereon as an

                                       15

additional insured or loss payee under a lender's loss payable endorsement. Such
Debtor  promptly  shall  notify the  Collateral  Agent  whenever  such  separate
insurance is taken out,  specifying the insurer  thereunder and full particulars
as to the  policies  evidencing  the  same,  and  copies  of  such  policies  or
certificates of insurance  evidencing the same shall be promptly provided to the
Collateral Agent.

            4.3  LOCATION  OF  INVENTORY  AND  EQUIPMENT.   Keep  such  Debtor's
Inventory and Equipment only at the locations identified on SCHEDULE 3.4 and its
chief  executive  offices only at the locations  identified on SCHEDULE  3.6(b);
provided,  however,  that such Debtor may amend SCHEDULE 3.4 and SCHEDULE 3.6(b)
so long as such  amendment  occurs by prompt  written  notice to the  Collateral
Agent, so long as such new location is within the  continental  United States or
Canada.

            4.4 NEW  INTELLECTUAL  PROPERTY.  If, before all Obligations  (other
than contingent  indemnification  obligations) shall have been satisfied in full
or the  Collateral  Release  Event shall have  occurred,  such Debtor  shall (i)
become aware of any existing Registered  Intellectual Property of such Debtor of
which such Debtor has not previously  informed the Collateral Agent, (ii) obtain
rights to any Registered  Intellectual Property, or (iii) become entitled to the
benefit of any material  Intellectual Property which benefit is not in existence
on the date hereof,  the provisions of this Agreement above shall  automatically
apply thereto and such Debtor shall give to the Collateral  Agent prompt written
notice  thereof.  Such Debtor shall  prepare an amendment (in form and substance
reasonably  satisfactory to the Collateral Agent) to EXHIBITS A, B, C, and D, as
applicable,  to include any such  Intellectual  Property,  and such Debtor shall
file or refile this Agreement with the United States Patent and Trademark Office
and United States Copyright Office. Such Debtor shall promptly execute,  deliver
and file with any  necessary  Governmental  Authority  any and all documents and
instruments  necessary or advisable to record or preserve the Collateral Agent's
interest in all Intellectual  Property added to EXHIBITS A, B, C, and D pursuant
to this Section.

            4.5 DUTIES OF SUCH  DEBTOR.  Such Debtor  shall have the duty to the
extent  commercially  reasonable  and  in  such  Debtor's  good  faith  business
judgment,  desirable: (i) to file and prosecute diligently any patent, trademark
or service  mark  applications  of such Debtor  pending as of the date hereof or
hereafter   until  all  Obligations   (other  than  contingent   indemnification
obligations)  shall have been paid in full or the Collateral Release Event shall
have occurred,  (ii) except as otherwise  provided in the Indenture or any other
Indenture  Document,  to  preserve  and  maintain  all  rights  in the  material
Intellectual  Property  of such  Debtor  (including,  but not  limited  to, with
respect to  Trademarks,  the filing of affidavits of use and,  incontestability,
where  applicable,  under ss.ss.8 and 15 of the Lanham Act (15 U.S.C.  ss. 1058,
1065) and  renewals  and,  to the  extent  commercially  reasonable,  initiating
opposition or cancellation  proceedings or litigation  against users of the same
or  confusingly  similar marks who seriously  threaten the validity or rights of
such Debtor in its material Trademarks), and (iii) to ensure that the Registered
Intellectual Property of such Debtor is and remains enforceable.  The Collateral
Agent shall be  reimbursed  for all such  reasonable  costs and  expenses.  Such
Debtor shall not knowingly or unreasonably  abandon any right to file a material
patent,  trademark or service mark  application,  or abandon any pending  patent
application,  or any other material Intellectual Property, of such Debtor unless
such Debtor,  in the exercise of its commercially  reasonable  business judgment
determines  that such  abandonment  will not  materially  and adverse effect its
business.

                                       16

            4.6 FOREIGN PATENTS,  COPYRIGHTS AND TRADEMARKS. Upon the occurrence
and  during  the  continuance  of an Event of  Default,  at the  request  of the
Collateral  Agent  and  at  the  sole  cost  and  expense  (including,   without
limitation,  reasonable  attorneys' fees) of such Debtor, such Debtor shall take
all  actions  and  execute  and  deliver  any and all  instruments,  agreements,
assignments,   certificates   and/or  documents,   reasonably  required  by  the
Collateral  Agent to  collaterally  assign any and all of such Debtor's  foreign
patent,  copyright and trademark  registrations  and  applications  now owned or
hereafter  acquired to and in favor of the Collateral  Agent. Upon the execution
and  delivery  of any  such  collateral  assignments  or  documents,  the  terms
"Patents",  "Copyrights",  and  "Trademarks" as used herein with respect to such
Debtor shall  automatically  be deemed  amended to include such foreign  patent,
copyright  and  trademark  registrations  and  applications  without  any action
required by any person or entity.

            4.7 POST-CLOSING  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SEARCHES.  Each Debtor shall
provide  to the  Collateral  Agent  true and  complete  copies  of  intellectual
property searches from the United States Patent and Trademark Office relating to
such Debtor within 30 days of the date hereof.

5.          NEGATIVE COVENANTS.

            Each Debtor  covenants and agrees that,  until the  Obligations  are
paid and performed in full (other than contingent  indemnification  obligations)
or the Collateral Release Event shall have occurred, such Debtor will not do any
of the following:

            5.1 DISPOSAL OF ASSETS. Other than Permitted  Dispositions,  Dispose
of any of such Debtor's assets.

            5.2  CHANGE  NAME.   Change  such  Debtor's   name,   organizational
identification  number, state of organization or organizational  identity unless
such Debtor shall within ten Business  Days of any such change  provide  written
notice to the Collateral Agent of such change and file any financing  statements
or amendments  thereto  necessary to continue the perfection and priority of the
Collateral Agent's Liens.

            5.3 DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS AND SECURITIES ACCOUNTS.  Maintain, on or after
the date that is 30 days  following  the Issue  Date,  any  Deposit  Account  or
Securities  Account having an average  closing balance in excess of (i) $20,000,
individually,  or (ii) $50,000,  in the  aggregate,  in each case,  for any five
consecutive Business Day period unless such Debtor and the applicable securities
intermediary  or bank have  entered  into a  Control  Agreement  governing  such
Deposit Account or Securities  Account,  as the case may be, in order to perfect
or improve the priority the Collateral Agent's Liens therein.

            5.4 RESTRICTIONS ON FUTURE AGREEMENTS. Except as otherwise permitted
pursuant to the Indenture,  without the prior written  consent of the Collateral
Agent, Dispose,  grant a Lien on, encumber or assign any or all of, or grant any
license or  sublicense  under  (other than as  commercially  reasonable  in such
Debtor's  good faith  business  judgment),  the  Intellectual  Property  of such
Debtor,  or enter into any other  agreement  with  respect  to the  Intellectual
Property  of such  Debtor,  and such  Debtor  further  agrees  that it shall not
knowingly  take any action or knowingly  permit any action to be taken by others
subject  to  its   control,   including,   without   limitation,   licensees  or

                                       17

sublicensees,  or  knowingly  fail to take any action,  which  would  materially
adversely  affect the validity or enforcement  of the Collateral  Agent's rights
subject to this Agreement, other than in the ordinary course of business.

6.          COLLATERAL AGENT'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

            6.1  RIGHTS  AND  REMEDIES.  Upon the  occurrence,  and  during  the
continuation,  of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent (at its election (or
at the direction of the Holders holding a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Notes but without notice of its election (or such  direction) and without
demand) may (but shall not be obligated to) do any one or more of the following,
all of which are authorized by each Debtor:

            (a) Proceed  directly  and at once,  without  notice,  against  such
Debtor to collect and recover the full amount or any portion of the Obligations,
without first  proceeding  against any other Debtor,  or against any security or
collateral  for the  Obligations;

            (b) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with such Debtor's
Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which the Collateral  Agent considers
advisable;

            (c) Cause such Debtor to hold all of its returned Inventory in trust
for the Collateral  Agent and segregate all such Inventory from all other assets
of such Debtor or in such Debtor's possession;

            (d) Without notice to or demand upon such Debtor, make such payments
and do such acts as the Collateral  Agent  considers  necessary or reasonable to
protect its security interests in the Collateral (including, without limitation,
in connection with the filing or recording of any documents (including all taxes
in  connection  therewith)  in public  offices,  the payment or discharge of any
taxes, counsel fees, maintenance fees,  encumbrances or otherwise in protecting,
maintaining  or  preserving  the  Intellectual  Property of such  Debtor,  or in
defending or prosecuting any actions or proceedings arising out of or related to
the  Intellectual  Property of such  Debtor,  shall be borne by and paid by such
Debtor on demand by the  Collateral  Agent on behalf of the Secured  Parties and
until so paid shall bear interest at the "default rate of interest" set forth in
the Indenture).  Such Debtor agrees to assemble the Collateral if the Collateral
Agent so requires,  and to make the Collateral available to the Collateral Agent
at a  place  that  the  Collateral  Agent  may  designate  which  is  reasonably
convenient to both parties. Such Debtor authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter
the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of
the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase,  contest, or compromise
any Lien that conflicts with the priority of the Collateral Agent's Liens in and
to the  Collateral  and to pay all expenses  incurred in  connection  therewith,
which expenses  shall be for the account of such Debtor.  With respect to any of
such Debtor's owned or leased premises, such Debtor hereby grants the Collateral
Agent a license  to enter into  possession  of such  premises  and to occupy the
same,  without charge, in order to exercise any of the Collateral Agent's rights
or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

            (e)  Without  notice to such Debtor  (such  notice  being  expressly
waived),  and without  constituting  an acceptance of any  collateral in full or
partial  satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning of the Code), set off
and apply to the  Obligations  any and all (i)  balances  and  deposits  of such
Debtor held by the Collateral  Agent, or (ii)  Indebtedness at any time owing to
or for the credit or the account of such Debtor held by the Collateral Agent;

                                       18

            (f) Hold, as cash  collateral,  any and all balances and deposits of
such Debtor held by the Collateral  Agent to secure the full and final repayment
of all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations);

            (g) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare
for sale,  advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner  provided for herein) the
Collateral of such Debtor.  Such Debtor hereby grants to the Collateral  Agent a
license or other right to use, without charge,  such Debtor's  labels,  patents,
copyrights,   trade  secrets,  trade  names,  trademarks,   service  marks,  and
advertising  matter,  or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the
Collateral of such Debtor,  in completing  production of,  advertising for sale,
and selling any  Collateral  of such Debtor and such  Debtor's  rights under all
licenses and all  franchise  agreements  shall inure to the  Collateral  Agent's
benefit;

            (h) Sell all or any part of the  Collateral of such Debtor at either
a  public  or  private  sale,  or  both,  by way of one  or  more  contracts  or
transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including
such Debtor's premises) as is commercially reasonable.  It is not necessary that
such Collateral of such Debtor be present at any such sale;

            (i) Except in those  circumstances where no notice is required under
the Code,  the  Collateral  Agent  shall give notice of the  disposition  of the
Collateral of such Debtor as follows:

                        (i) The Collateral Agent shall give such Debtor a notice
            in writing of the time and place of public sale,  or, if the sale is
            a private sale or some other disposition other than a public sale is
            to be made of the  Collateral  of such Debtor,  the time on or after
            which the private sale or other disposition is to be made; and

                        (ii) The notice shall be personally delivered or mailed,
            postage  prepaid,  to such Debtor as provided in SECTION 9, at least
            10 days before the  earliest  time of  disposition  set forth in the
            notice;  no notice needs to be given prior to the disposition of any
            portion of the  Collateral  of such  Debtor  that is  perishable  or
            threatens  to  decline  speedily  in  value  or  that  is of a  type
            customarily sold on a recognized market;

            (j) The  Collateral  Agent or any other Secured Party may credit bid
and purchase at any public sale;

            (k) The Collateral  Agent may seek the  appointment of a receiver or
keeper to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral of such Debtor
or to operate same and, to the maximum extent  permitted by applicable  law, may
seek the appointment of such a receiver  without the requirement of prior notice
or a hearing;

            (l) The use by the  Collateral  Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties of all  Intellectual  Property of such Debtor shall be worldwide  and as
extensive as the rights of such Debtor to use such Intellectual Property of such
Debtor,  and without any liability  for royalties or other related  charges from
the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties to such Debtor, solely for the
purpose of  completing  production  of,  advertising  for sale and  selling  any
Intellectual Property.

                                       19

            (m) The  Collateral  Agent for the  benefit of the  Secured  Parties
shall have the right, but shall in no way be obligated, to bring suit in its own
name to  enforce  the  Intellectual  Property  of such  Debtor,  only  after the
Collateral  Agent has tendered  notice to such Debtor of the Collateral  Agent's
desire to initiate  such suit and such Debtor has  declined in writing to itself
pursue such suit,  and, if the  Collateral  Agent shall  commence any such suit,
such Debtor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful
acts  and  execute  any and all  proper  documents  and  instruments  reasonably
required by the Collateral  Agent for the benefit of the Secured  Parties in aid
of such enforcement.

            (n) The Collateral Agent shall have the right and be authorized (but
not obligated) to (i) endorse such Debtor's name on all applications, documents,
papers and  instruments  necessary or desirable for the Collateral  Agent in the
use of the Intellectual  Property of such Debtor, or (ii) take any other actions
with respect to the Intellectual Property of such Debtor as the Collateral Agent
deems in its commercially  reasonable judgment to be in the best interest of the
Secured Parties, or (iii) grant or issue any exclusive or non-exclusive  license
under the Intellectual  Property of such Debtor to any person or entity, or (iv)
assign, pledge, sell, convey or otherwise transfer title in or dispose of any of
the Intellectual Property of such Debtor to any person or entity.

            (o) The  Collateral  Agent shall have all other  rights and remedies
available at law or in equity or pursuant to any other Indenture Document; and

            (p) Be entitled to any deficiency  that exists after  disposition of
the  Collateral  as provided  above by immediate  payment from each Debtor.  Any
excess will be  returned,  without  interest  and subject to the rights of third
Persons, by Collateral Agent to the applicable Debtor.

            Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody  thereof,  the
Collateral  Agent shall have no duty as to any  Collateral in its  possession or
control  or in the  possession  or  control of any agent or bailee or any income
thereon  or as to  preservation  of rights  against  prior  parties or any other
rights pertaining  thereto and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for
filing any  financing or  continuation  statements or recording any documents or
instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or
maintaining  the  perfection  of any security  interest in the  Collateral.  The
Collateral  Agent  shall be  deemed  to have  exercised  reasonable  care in the
custody of the  Collateral  in its  possession  if the  Collateral  is  accorded
treatment  substantially  equal to that which it accords  its own  property  and
shall not be liable or  responsible  for any loss or  diminution in the value of
any of the  Collateral,  by  reason  of the  act  or  omission  of any  carrier,
forwarding  agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral  Agent in
good faith.

            The  Collateral  Agent shall not be  responsible  for the existence,
genuineness or value of any of the  Collateral or for the validity,  perfection,
priority  or  enforceability  of the  Liens  in any of the  Collateral,  whether
impaired  by  operation  of law or by reason of any of any action or omission to
act on its  part  hereunder,  except  to the  extent  such  action  or  omission
constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral
Agent,  for the validity or  sufficiency  of the  Collateral or any agreement or
assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Debtor to the
Collateral,  for insuring the  Collateral or for the payment of taxes,  charges,
assessments or Liens upon the  Collateral or otherwise as to the  maintenance of

                                       20

the Collateral.  The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire
as to the  performance  or  observance  of any of the  terms  of  this  Security
Agreement or the Indenture Documents by the Debtors.

            6.2 REMEDIES  CUMULATIVE.  The rights and remedies of the Collateral
Agent  under  this  Agreement,  the  other  Indenture  Documents,  and all other
agreements shall be cumulative. The Collateral Agent shall have all other rights
and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in
equity.  No exercise  by the  Collateral  Agent of one right or remedy  shall be
deemed  an  election,  and no  waiver  by the  Collateral  Agent of any Event of
Default shall be deemed a continuing  waiver.  No delay by the Collateral  Agent
shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

7.          TAXES AND EXPENSES.

            If any Debtor fails to pay any monies (whether  taxes,  assessments,
rents, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased properties or assets, rents
or other amounts  payable under such leases) due to third  Persons,  or fails to
make any deposits or furnish any required  proof of payment or deposit,  in each
case,  to the  extent  required  under the terms of this  Agreement,  then,  the
Collateral  Agent,  in its sole  discretion  and  without  prior  notice to such
Debtor, may (but shall not be obligated to) do any or all of the following:  (a)
make  payment of the same or any part  thereof or (b) in the case of the failure
to comply with  SECTION 4.2  hereof,  if an Event of Default  shall occur and be
continuing,  obtain and  maintain  insurance  policies of the type  described in
SECTION 4.2 and take any action with respect to such policies as the  Collateral
Agent  deems  prudent.  Any such  amounts  paid by the  Collateral  Agent  shall
constitute Obligations owing to the Collateral Agent and any such payments shall
not constitute an agreement by the Collateral  Agent to make similar payments or
deposits  in the  future  or a waiver  by the  Collateral  Agent of any Event of
Default under this  Agreement.  The Collateral  Agent need not inquire as to, or
contest the validity of, any such  expense,  tax, or Lien and the receipt of the
usual official notice for the payment thereof shall be conclusive  evidence that
the same was validly due and owing.

8.          WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

            8.1 DEMAND;  PROTEST. Each Debtor waives demand,  protest, notice of
protest,  notice of  default or  dishonor,  notice of  payment  and  nonpayment,
nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise,  settlement,  extension, or renewal
of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by the
Collateral Agent on which such Debtor may in any way be liable.

            8.2 COLLATERAL AGENT'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL OF EACH DEBTOR. Each
Debtor hereby agrees that: (a) so long as the Collateral Agent complies with its
obligations,  if any, under the Code, the Collateral  Agent shall not in any way
or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral of
such Debtor,  (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner
or fashion from any cause,  (iii) any diminution in the value  thereof,  or (iv)
any act or default of any carrier,  warehouseman,  bailee, forwarding agency, or
other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral
of such Debtor shall be borne by such Debtor.

                                       21

            8.3 INDEMNIFICATION.  Each Debtor shall, jointly and severally, pay,
indemnify,  defend,  and hold the Collateral  Agent-Related  Persons  (each,  an
"INDEMNIFIED PERSON") harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and
against  any  and  all  claims,   demands,   suits,   actions,   investigations,
proceedings,  and damages,  and all reasonable  attorneys fees and disbursements
and other costs and expenses  actually  incurred in  connection  therewith or in
connection  with the enforcement of this  indemnification  (as and when they are
incurred and  irrespective  of whether suit is  brought),  at any time  asserted
against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a
result of or related to the execution,  delivery,  enforcement,  performance, or
administration  (including any  restructuring or workout with respect hereto) of
this  Agreement,  any of the  other  Indenture  Documents,  or the  transactions
contemplated  hereby or  thereby,  and (b) with  respect  to any  investigation,
litigation,  or  proceeding  related to this  Agreement  or any other  Indenture
Document,  or any act,  omission,  event,  or circumstance in any manner related
thereto (all the foregoing,  collectively,  the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES").  The
foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding,  such Debtor shall have no obligation
to any Indemnified Person under this SECTION 8.3 with respect to any Indemnified
Liability  that a court of competent  jurisdiction  finally  determines  to have
resulted  from the gross  negligence or willful  misconduct of such  Indemnified
Person.  This provision  shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
repayment in full of the Obligations or the occurrence of the Collateral Release
Event.  If any  Indemnified  Person  makes any payment to any other  Indemnified
Person  with  respect to an  Indemnified  Liability  as to which such Debtor was
required to  indemnify  the  Indemnified  Person  receiving  such  payment,  the
Indemnified  Person  making  such  payment is  entitled  to be  indemnified  and
reimbursed  by  such  Debtor  with  respect  thereto.  WITHOUT  LIMITATION,  THE
FOREGOING  INDEMNITY  SHALL APPLY TO EACH  INDEMNIFIED  PERSON  WITH  RESPECT TO
INDEMNIFIED  LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF
ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

11.         AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.

            11.1 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No amendment or waiver of any provision
of this  Agreement,  and no consent with respect to any  departure by any Debtor
herefrom,  shall be effective  unless the same shall be in writing and signed by
the  Collateral  Agent and such Debtor and then any such waiver or consent shall
be  effective  only in the specific  instance  and for the specific  purpose for
which given.

            11.2 NO WAIVERS;  CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.  No failure by the Collateral
Agent to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other
Indenture  Document,  or delay by the  Collateral  Agent in exercising the same,

effective  unless it is in  writing,  and then only to the  extent  specifically
stated.  No waiver  by the  Collateral  Agent on any  occasion  shall  affect or
diminish the Collateral  Agent's rights thereafter to require strict performance
by each Debtor of any provision of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent's rights
under this  Agreement and the other  Indenture  Documents will be cumulative and
not exclusive of any other right or remedy that the Collateral Agent may have.

12.         GENERAL PROVISIONS.

            12.1  EFFECTIVENESS.  This  Agreement  shall be  binding  and deemed
effective when executed by each Debtor and the Collateral Agent.

            12.2 SUCCESSORS.  This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit
of the  respective  successors  and  assigns of each of the  parties;  PROVIDED,
HOWEVER,  that no party  may  assign  this  Agreement  or any  rights  or duties
hereunder other than pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

            12.3  SECTION  HEADINGS.  Headings  and numbers  have been set forth
herein for  convenience  only.  Unless the contrary is compelled by the context,
everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.

            12.4 INTERPRETATION;  GOVERNMENT REGULATION.  Neither this Agreement
nor  any  uncertainty  or  ambiguity  herein  shall  be  construed  against  the
Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party or any Debtor,  whether under any rule
of construction or otherwise.  On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed
by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted  according to the ordinary
meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions
of all parties hereto.

            12.5  SEVERABILITY  OF PROVISIONS.  Each provision of this Agreement

an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and
the same  Agreement.  Delivery of an executed  counterpart  of this Agreement by
telefacsimile  or other  electronic  method of transmission  shall be equally as

                                       23

effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any
party  delivering an executed  counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or
other electronic  method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed
counterpart  of this  Agreement but the failure to deliver an original  executed
counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of
this Agreement.

            12.7 REVIVAL AND REINSTATEMENT OF OBLIGATIONS.  If the incurrence or
payment of the  Obligations  by any Debtor or the  transfer by any Debtor to the
Collateral  Agent  of  any  property  of  such  Debtor  should  for  any  reason
subsequently  be declared to be void or voidable  under any state or federal law
relating to  creditors'  rights,  including  provisions of the  Bankruptcy  Code
relating  to  fraudulent   conveyances,   preferences,   or  other  voidable  or
recoverable  payments  of  money  or  transfers  of  property  (collectively,  a
"VOIDABLE  TRANSFER"),  and if the  Collateral  Agent  is  required  to repay or
restore,  in whole or in part,  any such Voidable  Transfer,  or elects to do so
upon the  reasonable  advice  of its  counsel,  then,  as to any  such  Voidable
Transfer,  or the amount thereof that the Collateral Agent is required or elects
to repay or restore,  and as to all reasonable  costs,  expenses,  and attorneys
fees of the  Collateral  Agent  related  thereto,  the  liability of such Debtor
automatically  shall be revived,  reinstated,  and  restored  and shall exist as
though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

            12.8 INTEGRATION.  This Agreement, together with the other Indenture
Documents,  reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the
transactions  contemplated  hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by
any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

            12.9  DEBTORS  REMAIN  LIABLE.   Anything  herein  to  the  contrary
notwithstanding:

                        (a) Debtors will remain  liable under the  contracts and
            agreements  included  in the  Collateral  to the  extent  set  forth
            therein,  and will perform all of their duties and obligations under
            such  contracts  and  agreements  to  the  same  extent  as if  this
            Agreement had not been executed;

                        (b)  the  exercise  by  Collateral  Agent  of any of its
            rights  hereunder will not release any Debtor from any of its duties
            or obligations  under any such  contracts or agreements  included in
            the Collateral; and

            (a) none of  Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee or any Holder will have
any  obligation or liability  under any contracts or agreements  included in the
Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor will any such Person be obligated to
perform any of the obligations or duties of any Debtor thereunder or to take any
action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

            12.10 COLLATERAL COMPRISED OF EQUITY INTERESTS OF SUBSIDIARIES.  The
provisions of the Pledge  Agreement,  as they relate to Collateral  comprised of
Equity Interests of Issuers that are Subsidiaries of any Debtor are incorporated
by reference herein, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

            12.11 CONTINUING  SECURITY  INTEREST.  This Agreement shall create a
continuing  security  interest in the Collateral  and shall:  (i) remain in full
force and  effect  until the  payment  in full of all  Obligations  (other  than

                                       24

contingent  indemnification  obligations)  or the  occurrence of the  Collateral
Release  Event except as otherwise  provided in the  Indenture;  (ii) be binding
upon each Debtor and its successors and assigns, except as otherwise provided in
the  Indenture;  and (iii)  inure to the  benefit  of  Collateral  Agent and its
successors,   transferees,  and  assigns.  Upon  the  payment  in  full  of  all
Obligations   (other  than  contingent   indemnification   obligations)  or  the
occurrence of the  Collateral  Release  Event,  the security  interests  granted
herein shall  automatically  terminate  and all rights to the  Collateral  shall
revert to the applicable  Debtor.  Upon any termination of any security interest
referred to in this SECTION 12.11,  Collateral Agent will, at Debtors'  expense,
execute  and  deliver  to  each  Debtor   such   documents   without   recourse,
representation  or warranty as such Debtor shall reasonably  request to evidence
such termination.

            12.12 SECURITY INTEREST ABSOLUTE. To the maximum extent permitted by
law, all rights of Collateral Agent, all security interests  hereunder,  and all
obligations  of each  Debtor  hereunder,  shall be  absolute  and  unconditional
irrespective of:

            (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any of the Obligations
or any other  agreement or  instrument  relating  thereto,  including any of the
Indenture Documents;

            (b) any change in the time,  manner,  or place of payment  of, or in
any other  term of, all or any of the  Obligations,  or any other  amendment  or
waiver of or any consent to any departure  from any of the Indenture  Documents,
or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

            (c)  any  exchange,   release,   or   non-perfection  of  any  other
collateral,  or any release or  amendment  or waiver of or consent to  departure
from any guaranty for all or any of the Obligations; or

            (d) any  other  circumstances  that  might  otherwise  constitute  a
defense available to, or a discharge of, any Debtor.

To the maximum  extent  permitted by law, each Debtor hereby waives any right to
require  Collateral  Agent to: (A) proceed  against or exhaust any security held
from such Debtor;  or (B) pursue any other remedy in  Collateral  Agent's  power
whatsoever.

            12.13 POSTPONEMENT OF SUBROGATION. Each Debtor hereby agrees that it
will not  exercise any rights which it may acquire by reason of any payment made
hereunder, whether by way of subrogation,  reimbursement or otherwise, until the
prior payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent  indemnification
obligations) or the occurrence of the Collateral  Release Event.  Subject to the
terms of the Intercreditor  Agreement,  any amount paid to any Debtor on account
of any payment made  hereunder  prior to the payment in full of all  Obligations
(other than  contingent  indemnification  obligations)  or the occurrence of the
Collateral  Release  Event shall be held in trust for the benefit of  Collateral
Agent,  the Holders and the Trustee and shall  immediately be paid to Collateral
Agent, to be distributed to the Trustee for application against the Obligations,
whether matured or unmatured,  in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. In
furtherance  of the  foregoing,  for so  long  as any  Obligations  (other  than
contingent  indemnification  obligations)  remain  outstanding or the Collateral
Release Event shall not have occurred, each Debtor shall refrain from taking any
action or commencing any proceeding  against Company or any other Debtor (or any

                                       25

of  their  respective  successors  or  assigns,  whether  in  connection  with a
Insolvency  Proceeding  or  otherwise)  to  recover  any  amounts  in respect of
payments  made under this  Agreement  to  Collateral  Agent,  the Trustee or any
Holder.

            12.14  APPLICABLE  GAMING LAWS. The Collateral  Agent  acknowledges,
understands  and agrees on behalf of itself and the other  Secured  Parties that
the Gaming  Laws and Racing Laws may impose  certain  licensing  or  transaction
approval  requirements  prior to the exercise of the rights and remedies granted
to it under this Agreement with respect to the Collateral  subject to the Gaming
Laws or Racing Laws. All rights, remedies, and powers provided in this Agreement
relative to the Collateral may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise
thereof does not violate any  applicable  mandatory  provision of the applicable
Gaming Laws or Racing Laws and all provisions of this Agreement  relative to the
Collateral are intended to be subject to all applicable  mandatory provisions of
the applicable Gaming Laws or Racing Laws and to be limited solely to the extent
necessary  to  not  render  the   provisions  of  this   Agreement   invalid  or
unenforceable,  in whole or in part.  Notwithstanding the immediately  preceding
sentence:

            (a) if any consent  under the Gaming Laws or Racing Laws is required
in  connection  with the taking of any of the actions  which may be taken by the
Collateral  Agent in the  exercise  of its rights  hereunder,  then each  Debtor
agrees to use its best efforts to secure such consent and to cooperate  with the
Collateral  Agent in obtaining any such  consent,  and upon the  occurrence  and
during the  continuation  of any Event of Default,  each Debtor  shall  promptly
execute   and/or  cause  the  execution  of  all   applications,   certificates,
instruments,  and other  documents and papers that the  Collateral  Agent may be
required  to file in order to obtain any  necessary  approvals  under the Gaming
Laws or Racing  Laws,  and if such  Debtor  fails or  refuses  to  execute  such
documents,  the Collateral Agent or the court with jurisdiction may execute such
documents on behalf of such Debtor; and

            (b) or any  other  provision  of  this  Agreement  to the  contrary,
nothing  in this  Agreement  shall (i)  effect  any  transfer  of any  ownership
interest  in a Debtor or (ii)  effect any  transfer,  sale,  purchase,  lease or
hypothecation  of,  or  any  borrowing  or  loaning  of  money  against,  or any
establishment  of any voting trust  agreement or other  similar  agreement  with
respect to any  certificate  of suitability  or any owner's  license  heretofore
issued to any  person,  including  any  Debtor,  under any of the Gaming Laws or
Racing Laws.

            12.15 FURTHER ASSURANCES.  Each Debtor agrees to execute and deliver
such further agreements,  instruments and documents, and to perform such further
acts,  as the  Collateral  Agent shall  reasonably  request from time to time in
order to carry  out the  purpose  of this  Agreement  and  agreements  set forth
herein. Each Debtor agrees, that to the extent it has any Intellectual  Property
described  in  EXHIBIT  A, B or C, if it does not file a copy of this  Agreement
with the United  States  Patent  and  Trademark  Office  and the  United  States
Copyright Office, as applicable, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled (but not
obligated)  to so file  this  Agreement  at the sole  cost and  expense  of such
Debtor.

            12.16 INTERCREDITOR  AGREEMENT. If the Intercreditor Agreement is in
effect,

            (a) the Liens granted hereunder in favor of Collateral Agent for the
benefit of itself,  the Trustee and the Holders in respect of the Collateral and
the exercise of any right  related  thereto  thereby  shall be subject,  in each
case, to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement;

                                       26

            (b) in the event of any direct  conflict  between the express  terms
and provisions of this Agreement and of the Intercreditor  Agreement,  the terms
and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control; and

            (c)  notwithstanding  anything to the contrary herein, any provision
hereof that  requires  any Debtor to (i) deliver any  Collateral  to  Collateral
Agent  or (ii)  provide  that  the  Collateral  Agent  have  control  over  such
Collateral  may be  satisfied  by (A) the  delivery of such  Collateral  by such
Debtor to the lenders under the Credit  Agreement or their agent for the benefit
of the Collateral  Agent for the benefit of itself and the other Secured Parties
pursuant to Section 3.02 of the  Intercreditor  Agreement and (B) providing that
the lenders  under the Credit  Agreement or their agent be provided with control
with respect to such Collateral of such Debtor for the benefit of the Collateral
Agent for the  benefit  of itself  and the other  Secured  Parties  pursuant  to
Section 3.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement.
