      balance of such Indebtedness during such four fiscal quarters or such

      facility was created after the end of such four fiscal quarters, the

      repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness
      (each, a "Discharge") since the beginning of the period that is no longer

      involves a discharge of Indebtedness (in each case other than Indebtedness
      Incurred under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has
      been permanently repaid), EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for
      such period shall be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis
      to such Discharge of such Indebtedness, as if such discharge had occurred
      on the first day of such period;

      thereto for such period and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period
      shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense
      directly attributable to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted

      period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted
      Subsidiary to the extent Net and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries
      are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale);

            (iii) if since the beginning of such period the Company or any
      Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an
      Investment in any Person that thereby becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, or
      otherwise acquired any company or any business or any group of assets
      constituting an operating unit of a business, including any such
      Investment or acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a
      transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder (any such
      transaction, a "Purchase"), EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for
      such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto
      (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or
      acquisition occurred on the first day of such period;

            (iv) if since the beginning of such period any Person (that
      subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the
      Company or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period)
      shall have made any Sale or Purchase that would have required an
      adjustment pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above if made by the

amount of Consolidated Interest Expense associated with any Indebtedness
Incurred or repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged in connection
therewith, the pro forma calculations in respect thereof shall be as determined
in good faith by an Officer of the Company, based on reasonable assumptions. If
any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma
effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as the
average rate in effect during such period (taking into account any Interest Rate
Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such Interest Rate Agreement has a
remaining term as at the date of determination in excess of 12 months). If any
Indebtedness which is being given pro forma effect was Incurred under a
revolving credit facility, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be
computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the
applicable period.

      to the assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale for such period or
      increased by an amount equal to EBITDA (if negative) directly attributable
      thereto for such period;

            (ii) if since the beginning of such period the Company or any
      Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an
      Investment in any Person that thereby becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, or
      otherwise acquired any company or any business or any group of assets
      constituting an operating unit of a business, including any such
      Investment or acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a
      transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder (any such
      transaction, a "Purchase"), EBITDA for such period shall be calculated
      after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any
      Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition occurred on the first
      day of such period; and

                                       12

      adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) above if made by the Company
      or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, EBITDA for such period
      shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Sale
      or Purchase occurred on the first day of such period.

            For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be
given to an Asset Sale, Investment or acquisition of assets, or any transaction
governed by Article Eight hereof or the amount of income or earnings relating

good faith by an Officer of the Company, based upon reasonable assumptions.

                                       36

any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the
sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Any notice when mailed
to a Holder in the aforesaid manner shall be conclusively deemed to have been
received by such Holder whether or not actually received by such Holder. Where
this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after
the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of
notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be
a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such
waiver.

                  In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or
by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of any
event as required by any provision of this Indenture, then any method of giving
such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a
sufficient giving of such notice.

                  Section 1.08. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

                  If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with
any provision of the Trust Indenture Act or another provision which is required
or deemed to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act (including Section 318(c) thereof), such provision or requirement
of the Trust Indenture Act shall control.

                  If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any
provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the
latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or
excluded, as the case may be.

                  Section 1.09. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

                  The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of
Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

                  Section 1.10. Successors and Assigns.

                  All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company
and any Guarantor shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so
expressed or not.

                  Section 1.11. Severability Clause.

                  In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities
issued pursuant hereto shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.

                  Section 1.12. Benefits of Indenture.

                  Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities issued pursuant
hereto, express or implied, shall give to any Person (other than the parties
hereto and their successors hereunder, any Paying Agent and the Holders) any
benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

                  Section 1.13. Governing Law.

                  THIS INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE TRUSTEE,
THE COMPANY, ANY GUARANTOR, ANY OTHER OBLIGOR IN RESPECT OF THE SECURITIES AND
THE HOLDERS AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED
STATES FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, IN THE CITY
OF NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
INDENTURE OR THE SECURITIES.

                  Section 1.14. No Recourse Against Others.

                  A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the
Company or of a Guarantor shall not have any liability for any obligations of
the Company or a Guarantor under the Securities or this Indenture or for any
claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their
creation. Each Holder, by accepting any of the Securities, waives and releases
all such liability. Such waivers and releases are part of the consideration for
the issuance of the Securities.

                  Section 1.15. Independence of Covenants.

                  All covenants and agreements in this Indenture shall be given
independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted
by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception
to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid
the occurrence of a Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

                  Section 1.16. Exhibits and Counterparts.

                  (a) All exhibits attached hereto are by this reference made a
part hereof with the same effect as if herein set forth in full.

                  (b) This Indenture may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts shall
together constitute but one and the same instrument.

                  Section 1.17. Duplicate Originals.

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

                  Section 1.18. Agent for Service; Submission to Jurisdiction;
Waiver of Immunities.

                  By the execution and delivery of this Indenture or any
amendment or supplement hereto, each of the Company and each Guarantor, (a)
acknowledges that it has, by separate written instrument, designated and
appointed [ ], as its authorized agent, upon which process may be served in any
suit, action or proceeding with respect to, arising out of, or relating to, the
Securities and this Indenture, that may be instituted in any United States
Federal or state court in the State of New York, The City of New York, the
Borough of Manhattan, or brought under Federal or state securities laws or
brought by the Trustee (whether in its individual capacity or in its capacity as
Trustee hereunder), and acknowledges that [ ] has accepted such designation
(which appointment the Company hereby (i) acknowledges was unconditional and
(ii) agrees not to revoke), (b) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any
such court in any such suit, action or proceeding, and (c) agrees that service
of process upon [ ] shall be deemed in every respect effective service of
process upon the Company or any such Guarantor, as the case may be, in any such
suit, action or proceeding. The Company and each Guarantor further agree to take
any and all action, including the execution and filing of any and all such
documents and instruments as may be necessary to continue such designation and
appointment of [ ] in full force and effect so long as this Indenture shall be
in full force and effect; provided that the Company and each Guarantor may and
shall (to the extent [ ] ceases to be able to be served on the basis
contemplated herein), by written notice to the Trustee, designate such
additional or alternative agent or agents for service of process under this
Section 1.18 that (i) maintains an office located in the Borough of Manhattan,
The City of New York in the State of New York, (ii) are either (x) counsel for
the Company and the Guarantors or (y) a corporate service company which acts as
agent for service of process for other persons in the ordinary course of its
business and (iii) agrees to act as agent for service of process in accordance
with this Section 1.18. Such notice shall identify the name of such agent for
process and the address of such agent for process in the Borough of Manhattan,
The City of New York, State of New York. Upon the request of any Holder, the
Trustee shall deliver such information to such Holder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, there shall, at all times, be at least one agent for service of
process for the Company and the Guarantors appointed and acting in accordance
with this Section 1.18.

                  To the extent that the Company or any Guarantor has or
hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any
legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment,
attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself
or its property, the Company and each

                                       39
<PAGE>

Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations
under this Indenture and the Securities, to the extent permitted by law.

                  Section 1.19. Currency of Account; Conversion of Currency;
Foreign Exchange Restrictions.

                  (a) Subject to the terms of Section 3.14 hereof, U.S. dollars
are the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Company
and the Guarantors under or in connection with the Securities or this Indenture,
including damages. Any amount received or recovered in a currency other than
U.S. dollars (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or
order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the
Company and the Guarantors or otherwise) by the Trustee or any Holder of the
Securities in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Company and
the Guarantors shall only constitute a discharge to the Company and the
Guarantors to the extent of the dollar amount which the recipient is able to
purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the
date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that
purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so).
Unless the relevant Holder has elected to receive payment, in whole or in part,
in Brazil in the lawful currency of Brazil following the occurrence of a Dollar
Constraint in accordance with Section 3.14, if that dollar amount is less than
the dollar amount expressed to be due to the recipient under the Securities, the
Company and the Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, indemnify it against
any loss sustained by it as a result as set forth in this Section 1.19. In any
event, the Company and the Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, indemnify
the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purposes of
this Section 1.19, it will be sufficient for the Trustee or the Holder of a
Security to certify in a satisfactory manner (indicating sources of information
used) that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of dollars been
made with the amount so received in that other currency on the date of receipt
or recovery (or, if a purchase of dollars on such date had not been practicable,
on the first date on which it would have been practicable, it being required
that the need for a change of date be certified in the manner mentioned above).
The indemnities set forth in this Section 1.19 constitute separate and
independent obligations from other obligations of the Company and the
Guarantors, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall
apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Trustee or any Holder of the
Securities and shall continue in full force and effect despite any other
judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum
due under the Securities.

                  (b) Subject to the terms of Section 3.14, the Company and each
Guarantor covenants and agrees that the following provisions shall apply to
conversion of currency in the case of the Securities and this Indenture:

                  (i)      (A) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in, or
         enforcing the judgment of, any court in any country, it becomes
         necessary to convert into a

                                       40
<PAGE>

         currency (the "judgment currency") an amount due in any other currency
         (the "Base Currency"), then the conversion shall be made at the rate of
         exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which the
         judgment is given or the order of enforcement is made, as the case may
         be (unless a court shall otherwise determine).

                           (B) If there is a change in the rate of exchange
         prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the
         judgment is given or an order of enforcement is made, as the case may
         be (or such other date as a court shall determine), and the date of
         receipt of the amount due, the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as
         the case may be, will pay such additional (or, as the case may be, such
         lesser) amount, if any, as may be necessary so that the amount paid in
         the judgment currency when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing
         on the date of receipt will produce the amount in the Base Currency
         originally due.

                  (ii) In the event of the winding-up of the Company or any
         Guarantor at any time while any amount or damages owing under the
         Securities and this Indenture, or any judgment or order rendered in
         respect thereof, shall remain outstanding, the Company or the relevant
         Guarantor, as the case may be, shall indemnify and hold the Holders and
         the Trustee harmless against any deficiency arising or resulting from
         any variation in rates of exchange between (1) the date as of which the
         U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the amount due or contingently due under the
         Securities and this Indenture (other than under this Subsection
         (b)(ii)) is calculated for the purposes of such winding-up and (2) the
         final date for the filing of proofs of claim in such winding-up. For
         the purpose of this Subsection (b)(ii), the final date for the filing
         of proofs of claim in the winding-up of the Company or the relevant
         Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be the date fixed by the
         liquidator or otherwise in accordance with the relevant provisions of
         applicable law as being the latest practicable date as at which
         liabilities of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may
         be, may be ascertained for such winding-up prior to payment by the
         liquidator or otherwise in respect thereto.

                  (iii) The obligations contained in Subsections (a), (b)(i)(B),
         and (b)(ii) of this Section 1.19 shall constitute separate and
         independent obligations from the other Indenture Obligations of the
         Company and the Guarantors, shall give rise to separate and independent
         causes of action against the Company and each Guarantor, shall apply
         irrespective of any waiver or extension granted by any Holder or the
         Trustee or either of them from time to time and shall continue in full
         force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order or the filing of
         any proof of claim in the winding-up of the Company or any Guarantor
         for a liquidated sum in respect of amounts due hereunder (other than
         under Subsection (b)(ii) above) or under any such judgment or order.
         Any such deficiency as aforesaid shall be deemed to constitute a loss
         suffered by the Holders or the Trustee, as the case may

                                       41
<PAGE>

         be, and no proof or evidence of any actual loss shall be required by
         the Company or the relevant Guarantor or the liquidator or otherwise or
         any of them. In the case of Subsection (b)(ii) above, the amount of
         such deficiency shall not be deemed to be reduced by any variation in
         rates of exchange occurring between the said final date and the date of
         any liquidating distribution.

                  (iv) The term "rate(s) of exchange" shall mean the rate of
         exchange quoted by Reuters at 10:00 a.m. (New York time) for spot
         purchases of the Base Currency with the judgment currency other than
         the Base Currency referred to in Subsections (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above
         and includes any premiums and costs of exchange payable.

                  (c) In the event that on any payment date in respect of the
Securities, there exists any restrictions of access to the Brazilian foreign
exchange market that does not constitute a Dollar Constraint, the Company and
each Guarantor agree to pay all amounts payable under the Securities in the
currency of the Securities by means of any legal procedure existing in Brazil
(except commencing legal proceedings against the Central Bank of Brazil), on any
due date for payment under the Securities, for the purchase of the currency of
such Securities. All costs and taxes payable in connection with the procedures
referred to in this Section 1.19 shall be borne by the Company and the
Guarantors.

                  The percentage of the principal payments specified in the
table immediately above shall be based upon the Initial Principal Amount.
Principal payments shall be made ratably based upon the principal amount of the
Securities outstanding on the applicable Payment Date. Such payments shall be
made to the Holders of record of this Security as of the close of business on
the immediately preceding March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 (each, a
"Principal Record Date").

                  This Security shall bear interest at a rate of 7.0% per annum,
payable quarterly in arrears on each March 15, June 15, September 15 and
December 15, commencing on [ ]. Interest payments shall be made to the Holders
of record of this Security as of the close of business on the immediately
preceding March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 (each, an "Interest Record
Date," and each Interest Record Date and each Principal Record Date, a "Regular
Record Date"). Interest on this Security shall accrue from the Issue Date, or,
if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid.
Interest on this Security shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months. Interest on overdue principal payments on this Security
and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue installments of interest and any
other overdue amounts owing in respect of this Security shall accrue at the rate
of interest borne by this Security.

                  All payments in respect of this Security are subject to
deferral pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.14 of the Indenture.

                  If this Security is a Global Security, all payments in respect
of this Security shall be made to the Depository or its nominee in immediately
available funds in accordance with customary procedures established from time to
time by the Depository; provided that any such payment shall be made without
necessity for the presentation or surrender of this Security or the making of
any notation thereon. If this Security is not a Global Security, payment of the
principal of and interest on this Security shall be made at the office or agency
of the Company maintained for that purpose in The City of New York, or at such
other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such purpose, in
such coin or currency of the United States of America (subject to the terms of
Section 3.14 of the Indenture) as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that any such payment
may be made without the requirement that this Security be submitted for notation
of payment, and provided, further, that payment of interest may be made at the
option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled
thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register.

                  Without limiting the foregoing, any reduction in the principal
amount of this Security effected by any payments made on any Payment Date shall
be binding upon all future registered Holders of this Security and of any
Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof
or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon.

                  Section 2.03. Form of Reverse of Security.

                  The form of the reverse of the Securities shall be
substantially as follows:

                  1. Indenture. This Security is one of a duly authorized issue
of Securities of the Company designated as its 7.0% Senior Secured Notes due
2009 (herein called the "Securities"), limited (except as otherwise provided
in the Indenture referred to below) in aggregate principal amount to
U.S.$76,593,068, which may be issued under an indenture (herein called the
"Indenture") dated as of [ ], between the Company, the guarantors named therein
(the "Guarantors") and The Bank of New York, as trustee (herein called the
"Trustee," which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to
which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made
for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties,
obligations and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the
Guarantors and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the
Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

                  All capitalized terms used in this Security which are defined
in the Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture.

                                       46
<PAGE>

                  No reference herein to the Indenture and no provisions of this
Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company
or any Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of
and interest on this Security (including any Additional Amounts payable in
respect thereof) at the times, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency,
herein prescribed.

                  2. Guarantees. This Security is initially entitled to the
benefits of certain Guarantees made for the benefit of the Holders. 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.

                  3. Optional Prepayment. The Company, or any Person designated
by the Company, may prepay Securities at any time in a total aggregate principal
amount of not less than U.S.$1,000,000 or integral multiples of U.S.$500,000 in
excess thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date fixed for
prepayment.

                  4. Mandatory Prepayment.

                  (a) Excess Cash Flow. On June 15, 2006, and on June 15 of each
following year, the Company shall prepay Securities in a principal amount equal
to the product of (i) the Prepayment Percentage multiplied by (ii) the Excess
Cash Flow Prepayment Amount for the preceding fiscal year, if any. On each such
date on which such a prepayment is to be made, the Company shall provide the
Trustee with a notice of prepayment of Securities setting forth the amount of
such prepayment.

                  (b) Senior Secured Indebtedness. No fewer than five Business
Days prior to the voluntary prepayment of, voluntary redemption of, voluntary
repurchase of, or voluntary purchase of a participation in, any Senior Secured
Indebtedness (other than the Securities), the Company shall provide the Trustee
with a notice of prepayment of Securities in a principal amount equal to the
product of (i) the Prior Prepayment Percentage multiplied by (ii) the principal
amount of such prepayment, redemption, repurchase, or purchase of a
participation.

                  (c) Additional Indebtedness. Within five Business Days after
the Incurrence of additional Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness,
except for Refinancing Indebtedness the first time that it is Incurred in
respect of Senior Secured Indebtedness), the Company shall provide the Trustee
with a notice of prepayment of Securities in a principal amount equal to the
product of (i) 80% multiplied by (ii) the product of (A) the Prepayment
Percentage multiplied by (B) the Net Cash Proceeds of such Indebtedness Incurred
or issued by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

                  (d) Equity Issuances. Within five Business Days after the
receipt of the payment therefor, if the average price per share received by the
Company for the sale

                                       47
<PAGE>

of Equity Interests of the Company issued to consummate the Restructuring (the
"Closing Equity Issuance") exceeds R$0.35, the Company shall provide the Trustee
with a notice of prepayment of Securities in a principal amount equal to the
product of (i) the Prepayment Percentage multiplied by (ii) the Excess Proceeds
of the Closing Equity Issuance.

                  Within five Business Days after the occurrence of the issuance
of Equity Interests of the Company (other than the Closing Equity Issuance) by
the Company, the Company shall provide the Trustee with a notice of prepayment
of Securities in a principal amount equal to the product of (i) 70% multiplied
by (ii) the Prepayment Percentage of the Net Cash Proceeds of the sale of such
Equity Interests of the Company by the Company (other than the Closing Equity
Issuance). If, on the date immediately preceding an Equity Issuance, the cash
and Cash Equivalents of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on such date
is less than the Minimum Cash Balance, the Net Cash Proceeds of such Equity
Issuance shall be deemed to be reduced by the difference between the Minimum
Cash Balance and the cash and Cash Equivalents of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries on such date.

                  (i) Asset Sales. Within 60 days after the date of an Asset
         Sale permitted pursuant to Section 10.26, the Company shall deliver to
         the Trustee a notice of prepayment of securities in a principal amount
         equal to the product of:

                           (A) the Prepayment Percentage multiplied by

                           (B) the lesser of:

                                    (1)     80% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such
                           Asset Sale; and

                                    (2)     the greater of:

                                            (I)     50% of such Net Cash
                                                    Proceeds; and

                                            (II)    such Net Cash Proceeds minus
                                                    any portion thereof that
                                                    shall have been applied to
                                                    make Capital Expenditures.

                  5. Notice of Prepayments; Application of Prepayment Amounts.
Any written notice of a prepayment from the Company to the Trustee shall specify
the date of such prepayment to Holders, but in no event shall the date of such
prepayment (other than the date of any prepayment to be made in accordance with
Section 4(a) above) be less than five Business Days or more than 30 Business
Days after such prepayment notice has been delivered to the Trustee. The
prepayment amount specified in any written notice of prepayment shall become due
and payable on the date specified in such notice.

                                       48
<PAGE>
Prepayments shall be applied first to the last scheduled principal repayment of
the Securities. From and after any Prepayment Date, interest shall cease to
accrue on the aggregate principal amount of the Securities prepaid on such
Prepayment Date. All payments in respect of the Securities are subject to
deferral pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.14 of the Indenture.

                  6. Change of Control. If a Change of Control occurs, each
Holder shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part
(equal to U.S.$1.00 or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder's
Securities, pursuant to a Change of Control offer (the "Change of Control
Offer"). In the Change of Control Offer, the Company shall offer a payment (a
"Change of Control Payment") in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principal
amount of Securities repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if
any, to the date of purchase. Within ten days following any Change of Control,
the Company shall mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or
transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase
the Securities held by such Holder on the date specified in such notice (the
"Change of Control Payment Date"), pursuant to the procedures required by the
Indenture and described in such notice. 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 the Securities as a result of a
Change of Control.

                  On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to
the extent lawful:

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

                  (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent designated by the Company
         an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all
         Securities or portions thereof so tendered; and

                  (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the
         Securities so accepted together with an Officer's Certificate stating
         the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions thereof being
         purchased by the Company.

                  The Trustee shall promptly mail to each Holder whose
Securities are so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Securities,
and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred
by book entry) to each such Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to
any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, if any; provided that
each such new Security shall be in a principal amount of U.S.$1.00 or an
integral multiple thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of
the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of
Control Payment Date.

                                       49
<PAGE>

                  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
procedures set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer
made by the Company and purchases all Securities, or portions thereof, validly
tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

                  7. Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default under the
Indenture include, among others: (a) subject to the terms of Section 3.14
thereof in the case of a Dollar Constraint (as defined below), which may excuse
the failure to make a payment, default in the payment of principal of any
Security when due (whether at maturity, on any payment date, upon prepayment in
connection with a mandatory prepayment, or otherwise); (b) subject to the terms
of Section 3.14, default for 30 days or more in the payment when due of interest
on any Security; (c) any failure by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to

negative covenants; (d) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to perform or comply with any other covenants or agreements of the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under the Indenture or Securities
and such default continues unremedied for 45 days after the Company or the
applicable Restricted Subsidiary has actual knowledge or the Trustee has given
written notice thereof to the Company; (e) failure by the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary to pay any principal, premium or interest on any Debt
Instrument (other than under the Indenture and the Securities issued thereunder,
including this Security) when the same becomes due and payable or if any other
event shall occur or condition exist under any Debt Instrument (other than under
the Indenture and the Securities issued thereunder, including this Security), if
the effect of such event or condition, after the lapse or expiration of any
grace period applicable thereto, is to accelerate, or to permit the acceleration
of, the maturity of the Indebtedness evidenced by such Debt Instrument and such
grace period has lapsed or expired, or any such Indebtedness shall be declared
due and payable prior to its stated maturity; (f) failure by the Company or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay any principal of, premium or interest on
or any other amount payable in respect of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness
evidenced by the Securities issued pursuant to the Indenture, including this
Security), or if any other event shall occur or condition exist under any
Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities issued
pursuant to the Indenture, including this Security), if the effect of such event
or condition, after the lapse or expiration of any grace period or cure period
applicable thereto, is to accelerate, or to permit the acceleration of, the
maturity of the Indebtedness evidenced thereby, and such grace period or cure
has lapsed or expired, or any such Indebtedness shall be declared due and
payable prior to its stated maturity, provided, in each case, that the aggregate
principal amount of such indebtedness exceeds R$30 million (as such amount is
increased annually by the IGP-M Adjustment, beginning January 1, 2004), or its
equivalent in another currency or currencies (calculated, in the case of
Indebtedness denominated in dollars, using the Exchange Rate in effect on the
date of occurrence of

                                       50
<PAGE>

such failure or other event); (g) the entry of judgments for the payment of
money against the Company and/or any Restricted Subsidiaries either individually
or in the aggregate exceeding R$30 million (as such amount is increased annually
by the IGP-M Adjustment, beginning January 1, 2004), or its equivalent in
another currency or currencies (calculated, in the case of any U.S. Dollar
judgment, using the Exchange Rate in effect on the date of the entry of such
judgment), which is not discharged, or bonded or insured by a third Person and
with respect to which a period of 30 consecutive days has passed during which a
stay of enforcement, by reason of a pending appeal or right of appeal, the
posting of a guarantee or bond or otherwise, has not been in effect; (h) any
bankruptcy, concordata, intervencao, insolvency or similar proceeding instituted
by or against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is not
fully secured by a deposito elisivo; (i) all or a substantial part of the assets
of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, are condemned,
seized, expropriated, nationalized or otherwise appropriated, or custody of such
assets is assumed by any Brazilian governmental authority or court or other
Person acting under the authority of the Brazilian government and such default
is not remedied within 60 days after it occurs; (j) any Guarantee of the
Securities by a Guarantor ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared
null and void or any Guarantor fails to comply with its obligations under such
Guarantee or denies that it has any further liability under such Guarantee or
gives notice to that effect (other than by reason of the termination of the
Indenture or the release of any Guarantor from its Guarantee of the Securities
in accordance with the Indenture); (k) the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries defaults in its obligations under the Security Documents pursuant
to their respective terms and such default remains unremedied after the
expiration of any grace period specified therein; (l) either (i) any Transaction
Document, or any part of a Transaction Document, ceases to be in full force and
effect or binding and enforceable against the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
or admissible in evidence in the courts of Brazil, or it becomes unlawful for
the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary to perform its obligations under any of
the Transaction Documents to which it is a party or (ii) the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries contests the enforceability of any of the
Transaction Documents or denies that it has liability under the Transaction
Documents to which it is a party; and (m) subject to the terms of Section 3.14,
which may permit the Company to make a payment in reais or to defer payment, any
inability of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to receive or
remit U.S. Dollars necessary to pay obligations under the Securities or the
Indenture which results from (i) any law, regulation, directive, communication
or action imposed, issued or taken by the government of Brazil, the Central Bank
of Brazil or any competent governmental authority in Brazil imposing foreign
exchange restrictions, (ii) any declaration of a banking moratorium or
suspension of payments by banks in Brazil or (iii) any war, civil strife or
other similar events or escalation thereof in which Brazil is involved, which,
in any case, will have the effect of prohibiting, preventing or delaying the
payments in U.S. Dollars to the Holders (any such event or occurrence, a "Dollar
Constraint").

<PAGE>

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no default, event of default,
or judgments under or relating to the Nonparticipating Debt shall constitute an
Event of Default.

                  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
shall, upon the request of Holders holding not less than a majority in principal
amount of the Securities then outstanding, by written notice to the Company,
declare the principal amount of all of the Securities and all accrued and unpaid
interest thereon immediately due and payable; provided that, if an Event of
Default under Sections 5.01(i), (j), (k) and (l) occurs and is continuing, then,
and in each and every such case, the principal amount of all of the Securities
and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities shall, without any notice
to the Company or any other act by the Trustee or any Holder, be accelerated and
immediately due and payable. Upon any such declaration of acceleration, the
principal of the Securities accelerated and the interest accrued and unpaid on
the Securities and all other amounts payable with respect to the Securities
shall be immediately due and payable. If the Event of Default or Events of
Default giving rise to such declaration of acceleration is cured following such
declaration, the declaration may be rescinded by Holders holding a majority in
principal amount of the outstanding Securities.

                  Holders holding at least a majority of the aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Securities 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. However, the Trustee may refuse to
follow any direction (a) that conflicts with law or the Indenture, (b) that the
Trustee determines in good faith may involve the Trustee in personal liability,
(c) in respect of which the Trustee reasonably believes it will not be
adequately indemnified against the costs, expenses or liabilities which might be
incurred or (d) that may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders not
taking part in the direction; and the Trustee may take any other action it deems
proper that is not inconsistent with any direction received from Holders.

                  8. Defeasance. The Indenture contains provisions (which
provisions apply to this Security) for defeasance at any time of the entire
indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors on this Security upon compliance
by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein.

                  9. Amendments and Waivers. At any time, the Company, the
Guarantors and the Trustee may, without the consent of the Holders, amend, waive
or supplement the Indenture or this Security for certain specified purposes,
including, among other things, (a) providing for the succession of another
Person to the Company or the Guarantor and the assumption of any such Person to
the covenants of the Company or such Guarantor, (b) adding to the covenants of
the Company and its subsidiaries or surrendering rights of the Company and the
Guarantors, (c) curing ambiguities, defects or inconsistencies, (d) maintaining
the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as
amended, (e) adding Guarantors with respect to the Securities, (f) providing for
the appointment of a successor Trustee or any co-trustee, and (g)

                                       52

providing security interests to secure the Securities. Other amendments and
modifications of the Indenture or the Securities may be made by the Company, the
Guarantors and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a
majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities,
subject to certain exceptions requiring the consent of the Holders of the
particular Securities to be affected or the holders of other Senior Secured
Indebtedness. Any such consent or waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of this
Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

                  10. Denominations, Transfer and Exchange. The Securities are
issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of U.S.$1.00
and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities are exchangeable for a
like aggregate principal amount of Securities of a different authorized
denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

                  If this Security is in certificated form, then as provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer
of this Security is registrable on the Security Register of the Company, upon
surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency
of the Company maintained for such purpose in The City of New York or at such
other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such purpose,
duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the
Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or
more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

                  If this Security is a Global Security, it is exchangeable for
Securities in certificated form if (a) the Depository notifies the Company that
it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository or the Depository ceases to
be a "clearing agency" registered under the Exchange Act and, in each case, a
successor Depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such
notice or such cessation, as the case may be, or (b) there shall have occurred
and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to any Securities represented
by the Global Security and Holders who hold more than a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding represented by the
Global Security advise the Trustee through the Depository in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository (or a successor
thereto) with respect to the Global Security is no longer required and the
Security Registrar has received a request from the Depository to issue
certificated Securities. In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest
in a Global Security shall be entitled to physical delivery in certificated

                                       53
<PAGE>

form of Securities in authorized denominations equal in principal amount to such
beneficial interest and to have such Securities registered in its name.

                  No service charge shall be made for any registration of
transfer or exchange or redemption of Securities, but the Company may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
payable in connection therewith.

                  11. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to and at the time of due
presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the
Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in
whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,
whether or not this Security shall be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                  12. GOVERNING LAW. THE INDENTURE AND THIS SECURITY SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK. THE TRUSTEE, THE COMPANY, ANY GUARANTOR, ANY OTHER OBLIGOR IN RESPECT OF
THE SECURITIES AND THE HOLDERS SUBMIT TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY
UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN ANY
ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE INDENTURE OR THIS
SECURITY.

                  13. Paying Agents and Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New
York (the "Trustee") will act as co-Paying Agent and Security Registrar.
Initially, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, Ltd. will act as Principal Paying
Agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent, Security Registrar or
co-Registrar. Upon such change, the Company shall give written notice thereof to
the Trustee and the Holders. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates may
act as Security Registrar or co-Registrar. The Company may, subject to Section
3.07 and Section 10.03 of the Indenture, act as Paying Agent.

                  14. Additional Amounts. The Company will pay to the Holders of
Securities such Additional Amounts as may become payable under Section 10.12 of
the Indenture.

                  15. Conversion of Currency. Unless otherwise provided for with
respect to a Dollar Constraint under Section 3.14 of the Indenture, (a) U.S.
Dollars are the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the
Company and the Guarantors under or in connection with the Securities, including
damages and (b) any amount received or recovered in a currency other than U.S.
Dollars (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or order
of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the Company
and the Guarantors or otherwise) by any Holder in respect of any sum expressed
to be due to it from the Company and the Guarantors shall only constitute a
discharge to the Company and the Guarantors to the

                                       54
<PAGE>

extent of the U.S. Dollar amount which the recipient is able to purchase with
the amount received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that
receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that
date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so). Unless the
relevant Holder has elected to receive payment, in whole or in part, in Brazil
in the lawful currency of Brazil following the occurrence of a Dollar Constraint
(in accordance with the provisions described under Section 3.14 of the
Indenture), if such U.S. Dollar amount is less than the U.S. Dollar amount
expressed to be due to the Holder under any Security, the Company and the
Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, indemnify such Holder against any loss
sustained by it as a result. In any event, the Company and the Guarantors shall,
jointly and severally, indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any
such purchase. For the purposes of this paragraph, it will be sufficient for the
Holders to certify in a satisfactory manner (indicating sources of information
used) that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of U.S. Dollars
been made with the amount so received in that other currency on the date of
receipt or recovery (or, if a purchase of U.S. Dollars on such date had not been
practicable, on the first date on which it would have been practicable, it being
required that the need for a change of date be certified in the manner mentioned
above). These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from
other obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, will give rise to a
separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any
indulgence granted by any Holder and will continue in full force and effect
despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in
respect of any sum due under any Security.

                  16. Submission to Jurisdiction; Agent for Service; Waiver of
Immunities. The Company and each Guarantor have submitted to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of any New York State court or U.S. federal court sitting in the
Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York, New York, and any appellate court
of a New York state court or U.S. federal court, in any suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Security or the Indenture or for
recognition or enforcement of any judgment. The Company and each Guarantor have
appointed [ ], currently located at [ ], as its authorized agent upon which
process may be served in any suit, or proceeding with respect to, arising out
of, or relating to, this Security or the Indenture that may be instituted in any
Federal or state court in the State of New York, The City of New York, the
Borough of Manhattan, or brought under Federal or state securities laws and have
agreed that there shall, at all times, be at least one agent for service of
process for the Company and the Guarantors appointed and acting in accordance
with the provisions of Section 1.18 of the Indenture relating to agent for
service of process. To the extent that the Company or any Guarantor has or
hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any
legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment,
attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself
or its property, the Company and each Guarantor have irrevocably waived such
immunity in respect of its obligations under the Indenture and this Security, to
the extent permitted by law.

                  The percentage of the principal payments specified in the
table immediately above shall be based upon the Initial Principal Amount.
Principal payments shall be made ratably based upon the principal amount of the
Securities outstanding on the Payment Date. Such payments shall be made to the
Holders of record of the Securities as of the close of business on the
immediately preceding March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1.

                  The Securities shall bear interest at a rate of 7.0% per
annum, payable quarterly in arrears on each March 15, June 15, September 15 and
December 15, commencing on [ ]. Interest payments shall be made to the Holders
of record of the Securities as of the close of business on the immediately
preceding March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1. Interest on the
Securities shall accrue from the Issue Date, or, if interest has already been
paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Interest on the Securities shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Interest on
overdue principal payments on the Securities and, to the extent permitted by
law, overdue installments of interest and any other overdue amounts owing in
respect of the Securities shall accrue at the rate of interest borne by the
Securities.

                  Securities shall be issued initially in the form of a single
permanent global security (the "Global Security") substantially in the form set
forth in Sections 2.02 and 2.03 hereof, deposited with the Trustee, as custodian
of the Depository, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee
as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of any Global Security
may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the
records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depository or its nominee, as
hereinafter provided.

                  The principal of and interest on Global Securities shall be
payable to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the sole
registered owner and the sole

                                       60
<PAGE>

holder of the Global Securities represented thereby. The principal of and
interest on Securities in certificated form shall be payable at the office or
agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in The City of New York, or at
such other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such
purpose; provided, however, that at the option of the Company, interest may be
paid by check mailed to the addresses of the Persons entitled thereto as such
addresses shall appear on the Security Register.

                  Prepayments in respect of the Securities may be made as
provided in Article Eleven hereof. At the election of the Company, the entire
indebtedness on the Securities may be defeased as provided in Article Four
hereof.

                  Section 3.02. Denominations.

                  The Securities shall be issuable only in registered form
without coupons and only in denominations of U.S.$1.00 and any integral multiple
thereof.

                  Section 3.03. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

                  The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by
the manual or facsimile signature of any one of its Chairman of the Board, its
Vice-Chairman, its Chief Executive Officer, its President or one of its
Executive Vice Presidents, and by the manual or facsimile signature of any one
of its Secretary, Assistant Secretary or General Counsel.

                  Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signature of
individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind
the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to
hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or
did not hold such offices on the date of such Securities.

                  At any time and from time to time upon or after the execution
and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed by
the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for
the authentication and delivery of such Securities; and the Trustee in
accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such
Securities as provided in this Indenture and not otherwise. Each Security shall
be dated the date of its authentication.

                  No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such
Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for
in Section 2.04 hereof duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an
authorized representative, and such certificate upon any Security shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder.

                  In case the Company, pursuant to Article Eight hereof, shall
be consolidated, amalgamated, merged with or into any other Person or shall
convey, transfer or lease substantially all of its properties and assets to any
Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, amalgamation
or surviving such merger, or into which the Company shall have been merged, or
the Person which shall have received a conveyance, transfer or lease as
aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee
pursuant to Article Eight hereof, any of the Securities authenticated or
delivered prior to such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, conveyance,
transfer or lease may, from time to time, at the request of the successor
Person, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the successor
Person with such changes in terminology and form as may be appropriate, but
otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Securities surrendered for such
exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Order of
the successor Person, shall authenticate and deliver replacement Securities as
specified in such request for the purpose of such exchange. If such Securities
shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor
Person pursuant to this Section 3.03 in exchange or substitution for or upon
registration of transfer of any Securities, such successor Person, at the option
of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of
all Securities at the time Outstanding for Securities authenticated and
delivered in such new name.

                  The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent to
authenticate Securities on behalf of the Trustee if directed to do so by a
Company Order. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee
includes authentication by each such agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same
rights as any Security Registrar or Paying Agent to deal with the Company and
its Affiliates.

                  If any of the Securities are to be issued in the form of one
or more Global Securities, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities that (i) shall represent
and shall be in minimum denominations of U.S.$1.00 or integral multiples
thereof, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global
Security or Securities or the nominee of such Depository, (iii) shall be
delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such Depository's
instructions and (iv) shall bear the legend in substantially the form set forth
in Section 2.05.

                  Section 3.04. Registration; Registration of Transfer and
Exchange; Payment and Prepayment of Securities.

                  The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in
any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 10.10 being herein
sometimes referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as the Security Registrar may prescribe, the Company
shall provide for the registration of Securities, of transfers of

                                       62
<PAGE>

Securities and payment and prepayment of principal of, interest on, and
Additional Amounts, if any, with respect to, the Securities. The Trustee is
hereby initially appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering
Securities, transfers of Securities and the payment and prepayment of principal
of, interest on, and Additional Amounts, if any, with respect to the Securities
as herein provided.

                  All payments of principal of, and interest on, and Additional
Amounts, if any, in respect to each Security shall be made to the appropriate
Person recorded in the Security Register as being the Holder of such Security.

                  All payments and prepayments of principal of any Security
(including any prepayment pursuant to Sections 11.01 and 11.02 hereof) shall be
recorded by the Securities Registrar, along with the outstanding principal
amount of such Security immediately after such payment or prepayment.

                  The entries in the Security Register, absent manifest error,
shall be conclusive and the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders
shall treat (i) each Person whose name is recorded in the Security Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as a Holder hereunder and (ii) the outstanding
principal amount of each such Security recorded in the Securities Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as the outstanding principal amount of such
Security, in each case for all purposes of this Indenture and the Securities.

                  The Security Register shall be available for inspection by the
Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee (if, at any time, the Trustee shall not
be acting as Security Registrar), at any reasonable time and from time to time
upon reasonable prior notice.

                  Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at
the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 10.10, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the
name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of
any authorized denomination or denominations, of a like aggregate principal
amount.

                  At the option of the Holder, Securities in certificated form
may be exchanged for other Securities of any authorized denomination or
denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the
Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are
so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to receive.

                  A Physical Security may be exchanged for a beneficial interest
in a Global Security upon receipt by the Security Registrar of a Physical
Security, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer,
in form satisfactory to the Security Registrar, together with a Company Order
directing the Security Registrar to make, or to

                                       63
<PAGE>

direct the Depository to make, an endorsement on the Global Security to reflect
an increase in the aggregate amount of the Securities represented by the Global
Security. Upon such receipt, the Security Registrar shall cancel such Physical
Security and cause, or direct the Depository to cause, in accordance with the
standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the
Security Registrar, the number of Securities represented by the Global Security
to be increased accordingly. If no Global Security is then outstanding, the
Company shall issue and the Trustee shall upon written instructions from the
Company authenticate a new Global Security in the appropriate amount.

                  All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing
the same Indebtedness, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture,
as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange and
no such transfer or exchange shall constitute a repayment of any obligation nor
create any new obligations of the Company.

                  Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of
transfer, or for exchange or redemption shall (if so required by the Company or
the Security Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security
Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing.

                  No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any
registration of transfer or exchange or redemption of Securities, but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section
3.03, 3.04, 5.16 or 9.06 not involving any transfer.

                  The Company shall not be required (a) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before the mailing of a notice of prepayment of the Securities
under Section 11.05 or a notice of redemption of Securities under Section 5.16
and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) to
register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for prepayment or
redemption in whole or in part, except the unpaid or unredeemed portion of
Securities being prepaid or redeemed in part.

                  Any Holder of the Global Security shall, by acceptance of such
Global Security, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global
Security may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by such
Holder of such Global Security (or its agent), and that ownership of a
beneficial interest in the Security shall be required to be reflected in a book
entry.

                                       64
<PAGE>

                  When Securities are presented to the Security Registrar with a
request to register the transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal
amount of Securities of other authorized denominations, the Security Registrar
shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its
requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers
and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
Securities at the Security Registrar's request.

                  Section 3.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen
Securities.

                  If (a) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee,
or (b) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and there is delivered to the
Company, each Guarantor and the Trustee, such security or indemnity, in each
case, as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from any loss
which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced, then, in the absence of
notice to the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee that such Security has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon a Company
Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such
mutilated Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a
replacement Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.

                  Upon the issuance of any replacement Securities under this
Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any
other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected
therewith.

                  Every replacement Security issued pursuant to this Section in
lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original
additional contractual obligation of the Company and each Guarantor, whether or
not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by
anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

                  The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall
preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to
the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

                  Section 3.06. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

                  Interest on any Security (and any Additional Amounts payable
in respect thereof) which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided
for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that
Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

                                       65
<PAGE>

                  Subject to the terms of Section 3.14, any interest on any
Security (and any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) which is
payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest
Payment Date and interest (and any Additional Amounts payable in respect
thereof) on such defaulted interest at the interest rate borne by the
Securities, to the extent lawful (such defaulted interest and interest thereon
herein collectively called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be
payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date; and such Defaulted Interest
may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in
subsection (a) or (b) below:

                  (a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted
         Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their
         respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of
         business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
         Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company
         shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest
         proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed
         payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the
         Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be
         paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements
         satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the
         proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the
         benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this
         subsection (a) provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special
         Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be
         not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of
         the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the
         Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall
         promptly notify the Company in writing of such Special Record Date. In
         the name and at the expense of the Company, the Trustee shall cause
         notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the
         Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid,
         to each Holder at its address as it appears in the Security Register,
         not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the
         proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date
         therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid
         to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective
         Predecessor Securities) are registered on such Special Record Date and
         shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following subsection (b).

                  (b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in
         any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
         securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon
         such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written
         notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment
         pursuant to this subsection (b), such payment shall be deemed
         practicable by the Trustee.

                  Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

                  Section 3.07. Paying Agents; Discharge of Payment Obligations;
Indemnity of Holders.

                  (a) The Company may from time to time appoint one or more
Paying Agents and may designate a Paying Agent as Principal Paying Agent (the
"Principal Paying Agent") under this Indenture and the Securities. By its
execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company hereby initially
designates and appoints The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, Ltd. as Principal Paying
Agent and The Bank of New York as co-Paying Agent. Subject to Section 10.03, the
Company may act as Paying Agent.

                  (b) Unless the Company shall be acting as Paying Agent as
provided in Section 10.03, the Company shall, by 10:00 a.m. New York City time,
no later than one Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Date or principal
payment date on any Securities (whether on maturity, scheduled principal
repayment date, prepayment or otherwise) (each, a "Payment Date"), deposit with
the Principal Paying Agent in immediately available funds a sum sufficient to
pay such principal and interest when so becoming due (including any Additional
Amounts). The Company shall request that the bank through which such payment is
to be made agree to supply to the Principal Paying Agent by 10:00 a.m. (New York
City time) two Business Days prior to the due date for any such payment an
irrevocable confirmation (by tested telex or authenticated SWIFT MT 100 Message)
of its intention to make such payment. The Principal Paying Agent shall arrange
with all Paying Agents for the payment, from funds furnished by the Company or
any Guarantor pursuant to this Indenture, of the principal and interest
(including Additional Amounts, if any), on the Securities and of the
compensation of such Paying Agents for their services as such. All Paying Agents
will hold in trust, for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee, all money held by
such Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest and Additional
Amounts, if any, on the Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default
by the Company in making any such payment. The Company at any time may require a
Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any
funds disbursed by it. Upon complying with this Section 3.07 and the applicable
provisions of Section 10.03, the Paying Agents shall have no further liability
for the money delivered to the Trustee.

                  (c) Any payment to be made in respect of the Securities by the
Company or any Guarantor to or to the order of a Paying Agent shall be in
satisfaction pro tanto of the obligations of the Company under the Securities.
The Company shall indemnify the Holders against any failure on the part of any
Paying Agent to pay any sum due in respect of the Securities and shall pay such
sum to the Trustee on demand. This indemnity constitutes a separate and
independent obligation from the other obligations of

                                       67
<PAGE>

the Company under the Securities, shall give rise to a separate and independent
cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any waiver granted by the Trustee
and/or any holder of Securities and shall continue in full force and effect
despite any judgment, order, claim, or proof for a liquidated amount in respect
of any sum due under this Indenture, the Securities or any judgment or order.

                  Section 3.08. Persons Deemed Owners.

                  Prior to and at the time of due presentment for registration
of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered in the
Security Register as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of
receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 3.06) interest on such
Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security
shall be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the
Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                  Section 3.09. Cancellation.

                  All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption,
registration of transfer or exchange shall be delivered to the Trustee and, if
not already cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company and any
Guarantor may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities
previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company or such
Guarantor may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so
delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided
in this Section 3.09, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All
cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with
the Trustee's then customary procedures with respect to cancelled securities
and, if requested by the Company, certification of such disposition delivered to
the Company, unless by a Company Order the Company shall direct that the
cancelled Securities be returned to it. The Trustee shall provide the Company a
list of all Securities that have been cancelled from time to time as requested
by the Company.

                  Section 3.10. Computation of Interest.

                  Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

                  Section 3.11. Legal Holidays.

                  In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Prepayment Date,
date established for the payment of Defaulted Interest or any other Payment Date
in respect of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of principal
or interest need not be made on

                                       68
<PAGE>

such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same
force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Prepayment Date, date
established for the payment of Defaulted Interest or any other Payment Date in
respect of any Security, as the case may be; and no interest shall accrue with
respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment
Date, Prepayment Date, the date established for the payment of Defaulted
Interest or any other Payment Date in respect of any Security, as the case may
be, to the next succeeding Business Day.

                  Section 3.12. CUSIP Number.

                  The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP," "ISIN"
or similar numbers (if then generally in use), and if so, the Trustee shall use
the "CUSIP," "ISIN" or other similar numbers in notices of prepayment or
exchange; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no
representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the "CUSIP," "ISIN"
or other similar numbers printed in the notice or on the Securities, and that
reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the
Securities. All Securities shall bear identical "CUSIP," "ISIN" or other similar
numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change
in the "CUSIP," "ISIN" or other similar number of Securities.

                  Section 3.13. Book-Entry Provisions for Global Security.

                  (a) Each Global Security initially shall (i) be registered in
the name of the Depository for such Global Security or the nominee of such
Depository, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depository
and (iii) bear the legend as set forth in Section 2.05.

                  Members of, or participants in, the Depository ("Agent
Members") shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global
Security held on their behalf by the Depository, or the Trustee as its
custodian, or under such Global Security, 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 such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. None of the
Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar shall have any
responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner in a Global Security, a
member of, or a participant in the Depository or other Person with respect to
the accuracy of the records of the Depository or its nominee or of any
participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the
Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member,
beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depository) of any notice
(including any notice of prepayment) or the payment of any amount, under or with
respect to such Securities. All notices and communications to be given to the
Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Securities shall be
given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall
be the Depository or its nominee in the case of such Global Security). The
rights of beneficial owners in the

Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depository subject to the
applicable rules and procedures of the Depository. The Trustee, any Paying Agent
and the Security Registrar may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon
information furnished by the Depository with respect to its members,
participants and any beneficial owners. The Trustee, each Paying Agent and the
Security Registrar shall be entitled to deal with any depositary (including the
Depository), and any nominee thereof, that is the Holder of any Global Security
for all purposes of this Indenture relating to such Global Security (including
the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest and additional amounts,
if any, and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the owner or
holder of a beneficial ownership interest in such Global Security) as the sole
Holder of such Global Security and shall have no obligations to the beneficial
owners thereof. None of the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar
shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of any such
depositary with respect to such Global Security, for the records of any such
depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in
respect of any such Global Security, for any transactions between such
depositary and any participant in such depositary or between or among any such
depositary, any such participant and/or any holder or owner of a beneficial
interest in such Global Security or for any transfers of beneficial interests in
any such Global Security. 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 shall 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 Security.

                  (b) Transfers of a Global Security shall be limited to
transfers of such Global Security in whole, but not in part, to the Depository,
its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a
Global Security may be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures
of the Depository. In addition, Securities in certificated form (each, a
"Physical Security") shall be issued in exchange for a Global Security if (x)
the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as Depository for a Global Security or the Depository ceases to be a "clearing
agency" registered under the Exchange Act and, in each case, a successor
depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or such
cessation, as the case may be or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing with respect to any Securities represented by a Global Security and
Holders who hold more than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities at the time outstanding represented by such Global Security advise
the Trustee through the Depository in writing that the continuation of a
book-entry system through the Depository (or a successor thereto) with respect
to such Global Security is no longer required and the Security Registrar has
received a request from the Depository to issue Physical Securities.

                  (c) [Intentionally Omitted.]

                  (d) In connection with the transfer of an entire Global
Security to beneficial owners thereof pursuant to subsection (b) of this
Section, such Global Security 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 such Global Security, an equal
aggregate principal amount of Physical Securities of authorized denominations.

                  (e) The Holder of the Global Security 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 Securities.

                  Section 3.14. Dollar Constraint.

                  (a) Notice of Dollar Constraint; Appointment of Brazilian
Paying Agent. If a Dollar Constraint occurs, the Company shall, within five
Business Days after the Company becomes aware of such occurrence, deliver to the
Trustee an Officer's Certificate (i) certifying as to the existence of such
Dollar Constraint and the nature thereof and (ii) describing the action that the
Company has taken or intends to take with respect to such Dollar Constraint.
Upon giving notice to the Trustee of the occurrence of such Dollar Constraint,
the Company shall, with the prior written approval of the Trustee, appoint a
Paying Agent with an office in Sao Paulo, Brazil (the "Brazilian Paying Agent")
and shall provide the Trustee with written notice thereof. The Company shall, as
soon as practicable after the receipt thereof, give notice to the Holders and
the Trustee of any such certification by the Company, the contents of such
certification, the appointment of the Brazilian Paying Agent, the address of
such Brazilian Paying Agent's office in Sao Paulo and shall provide to the
Holders an Election Notice (as defined in Section 3.14(c) below).

                  (b) Modified Payment Obligations During a Dollar Constraint.
If a Dollar Constraint occurs on, or has occurred and is continuing as of, the
date on which payment in dollars of any Affected Payment shall be due, then,
provided that the Company shall have complied with the terms of Section 3.14(a)
above, notwithstanding any provision hereof or of any Securities to the
contrary, (i) neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be obligated to make
the applicable Affected Payment in dollars and (ii) the obligations of the
Company and each Guarantor shall be modified as set forth below, unless
Brazilian law or regulation requires otherwise. The amount of any Affected
Payment due during any fiscal year which was not paid by the Company or any
Guarantor to the Holders during such fiscal year as a result of the continuance
of a Dollar Constraint shall be deducted from the amount of "Excess Cash Flow"
with respect to such fiscal year for purposes of calculating the amount payable
by the Company with respect to such fiscal year pursuant to Section 11.02(a).

                  (c) Exercise of Election by Holders.

                  (i) If a Dollar Constraint shall have occurred and be
         continuing, each Holder may, subject to the conditions set forth below,
         elect in its sole discretion to receive any Affected Payment (x) in
         reais calculated using the Exchange Rate in effect on the Business Day
         immediately preceding the relevant Payment Date or (y) outside of
         Brazil in dollars promptly after the Dollar Constraint terminates. Any
         Holder may make one election in accordance with one option in the
         preceding sentence with respect to a portion of the aggregate principal
         amount of Securities held by such Holder and one election in accordance
         with the other option for the remaining portion of the aggregate
         principal amount of Securities held by such Holder. If no election is
         made by a Holder in accordance with this Section 3.14, such Holder
         shall be deemed to have selected option (y) in respect of the entire
         aggregate principal amount of Securities held by such Holder. In order
         for any such election to be effective, such Holder shall deliver, or
         cause to be delivered, to the Trustee and the Brazilian Paying Agent, a
         notice (an "Election Notice") in the form provided to such Holder
         pursuant to Section 3.14(a) by not later than the date falling five
         Business Days prior to any Payment Date.

                  (ii) The Company shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, on
         the Business Day immediately preceding each scheduled Payment Date
         during the continuation of a Dollar Constraint, in an escrow account
         held by the Brazilian Paying Agent for the benefit of such Holders
         (which account shall be pledged as security for the benefit of the
         Holders), designated as the "Dollar Constraint Payment Account", an
         amount in reais equal to the amount of the relevant Affected Payment
         (calculated using the Exchange Rate in effect on the second Business
         Day immediately preceding such Payment Date) that would have been due
         and payable on such Payment Date but for the continuation of such
         Dollar Constraint.

                  (iii) Any election made pursuant to this Section 3.14(c) shall
         (x) be revocable at any time prior to the fifth Business Day prior to
         the relevant Payment Date by the Holder of the relevant Securities (by
         means of a written notice by such Holder to the Company and the
         Trustee, and (y) apply solely to the Affected Payment in respect of
         which such election has been made and shall bind all subsequent holders
         of the relevant Securities.

                  (iv) To the extent that any Holder elects under Section
         3.14(c)(i)(x) above, to receive payment for any Affected Payment in
         reais, such Holder must have provided in its Election Notice to the
         Trustee under Section 3.14(c)(i) above the details of a reais
         denominated account in Sao Paulo, Brazil to which the Brazilian Paying
         Agent shall make the relevant Affected Payment in reais on the
         applicable Payment Date.

                                       72
<PAGE>

                  (d) Subsequent Election to Receive Reais on a Payment Date.
During the continuation of a Dollar Constraint, a Holder may, in its sole
discretion, elect to receive in reais any Affected Payment that was not paid in
reais because no effective election was made pursuant to Section 3.14(c)(i)(x),
by electing, not later than the date falling five Business Days prior to any
subsequent Payment Date, to receive such Affected Payment in reais on the same
basis, and subject to the same right of revocation, as set forth in Section
3.14(c) above.

                  (e) Payments During a Dollar Constraint.

                  (i) If an election to receive reais pursuant to Section
         3.15(c)(i)(x) or (d) above is effective with respect to any Affected
         Payment an amount equal to the amount of such Affected Payment shall be
         transferred by the Company, on or before the applicable Payment Date,
         to the Brazilian Paying Agent, which shall transfer such reais
         denominated Affected Payment on such Payment Date to the reais account
         designated by such Holder in the relevant Holder's Election Notice
         (which bank may also be the Brazilian Paying Agent).

                  (ii) On the last Business Day of each month during the
         continuation of a Dollar Constraint, the Company shall deposit into the
         Dollar Constraint Payment Account the amount, if any, required in order
         for the balance in such account to be equal to the reais amount
         (calculated using the Exchange Rate in effect on the Business Day
         immediately preceding the date of such deposit) that would be required
         to satisfy the Company's aggregate payment obligations under Section
         3.14(j) hereof with respect to each outstanding Affected Payment if the
         date of such deposit had been the Dollar Constraint Payment Date (such
         aggregate amount, the "Required Monthly Balance"). If, on the last
         Business Day of each month during the continuation of a Dollar
         Constraint, the amount on deposit in the Dollar Constraint Payment
         Account exceeds the applicable Required Monthly Balance, the Brazilian
         Paying Agent shall, at the written request of the Company (which
         written request shall include a reasonably detailed calculation of such
         Required Monthly Balance), transfer an amount equal to the amount of
         such excess to a reais account designated by the Company.

                  (f) Matters Relating to Affected Payments During Dollar
Constraint. Upon acceptance of a Security, the Holder thereof is deemed to have
agreed that, notwithstanding any provision hereof or of such Security to the
contrary, upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of, a Dollar
Constraint, subject to compliance by the Company and the Guarantors, as the case
may be, with the provisions of this Section 3.14, neither the Company nor any
Guarantor shall be required to make an Affected Payment, except as expressly
contemplated in this Section 3.14, and, accordingly:

                                       73
<PAGE>

                  (i) interest shall not accrue on any Affected Payment of
         principal or interest timely made or postponed hereunder from the
         original Payment Date for such Affected Payment in respect of any
         portion of the principal amount of Securities held by any Holder for
         which such Holder shall have elected to receive payment in reais
         pursuant to Section 3.14(c)(i)(x) or (d) hereof;

                  (ii) the amount of any Affected Payment timely made or
         postponed hereunder shall not constitute an overdue amount for any
         purpose;

                  (iii) such Securities shall continue to bear interest at the
         rate of interest otherwise provided for with respect to such Securities
         until paid in full; and

                  (iv) on the Payment Date for any Affected Payment with respect
         to which such Holder shall have elected to receive payment in reais
         pursuant to Section 3.14(c)(i)(x) or (d) hereof, the obligations of the
         Company and each Guarantor to make such Affected Payment in dollars
         shall be discharged by payment in reais on such Payment Date;

provided, however, that if the Company or any Guarantor is prevented or
restricted, legally or de facto, from purchasing reais in the exchange markets
in Brazil at the commercial rate of exchange in effect at such time, the Company
or such Guarantor's obligation to make payments on the Securities in reais
during the continuance of a Dollar Constraint shall be suspended until it is no
longer so prevented or restricted.

                  Any payment made pursuant to this Section 3.14(f) is in lieu
of any payment which the Company would be required to make pursuant to any other
provision of the Securities.

                  (g) Interest on Certain Affected Payments. During the
continuation of a Dollar Constraint, interest on any portion of the principal
amount of Securities held by any Holder for which such Holder shall have elected
to receive payment in dollars pursuant to Section 3.14(c)(i)(y) hereof shall
accrue and compound quarterly;

                  (h) Termination of a Dollar Constraint. A Dollar Constraint
shall terminate with respect to Affected Payment when the Company is no longer
prevented or restricted, legally or de facto, from purchasing dollars in the
exchange markets in Brazil at the commercial rate of exchange or from remitting
dollars abroad, in connection with making such Affected Payment.

                  (i) Notice of Termination of a Dollar Constraint and Payment.

                  (i) Upon the termination of a Dollar Constraint with respect
         to any Affected Payment, the Company or a Guarantor shall promptly give
         notice to the Trustee and the Brazilian Paying Agent, and if no other
         Dollar Constraint has

                                       74
<PAGE>

         occurred and is continuing, then the payment by the Company of any such
         Affected Payment in dollars and in an amount determined in accordance
         with Section 3.14(j) below shall be made to the relevant Holders within
         five Business Days from the date of such notice (such date, a "Dollar
         Constraint Payment Date").

                  (ii) Upon receipt of notice from the Company or a Guarantor
         pursuant to Section 3.14(i)(i) above, the Trustee shall mail to the
         Holders on behalf of and at the expense of the Company a notice
         specifying the date on which the Dollar Constraint terminated and, if
         Affected Payments are to be paid or are payable, specifying the
         relevant Dollar Constraint Payment Date, the amount to be paid or
         payable on such date, the place or places of payment, that, on and
         after said date the sole right of a Holder to any suspended payment
         shall be to receive such amount as calculated in accordance with
         Section 3.14(j) below, and that Holders who received any Affected
         Payments in reais in accordance with Section 3.14(c)(i)(x) or (d) on
         any Payment Date during the continuance of such Dollar Constraint shall
         not be entitled to receive any further amounts with respect to such
         Affected Payment.

                  (j) Payments on a Dollar Constraint Date. On a Dollar
Constraint Payment Date, postponed or otherwise unpaid Affected Payments on any
Securities shall be payable in dollars and will be equal to the sum of (x) the
amount of Affected Payments previously due on such Securities but not paid
because of the Dollar Constraint and (y) any Additional Amounts in respect of
the payments referred to in clause (x) above, in each case calculated using the
Exchange Rate in effect on the second Business Day immediately preceding such
Dollar Constraint Payment Date. Unless the Company shall be acting as Paying
Agent as provided in Section 10.03, the Company shall, by 10:00 A.M. New York
time, no later than one Business Day prior to such Dollar Constraint Payment
Date, deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent in immediately
available funds a sum sufficient to pay such Affected Payment. Such deposit may
be made, in whole or in part, using funds held by the Brazilian Paying Agent in
the Dollar Constraint Payment Account.

                  (k) Exchange Rate. For the purposes of calculating the amounts
in reais under this Section 13.14, in the event that no Exchange Rate is in
effect with respect to the relevant date of determination, the relevant Exchange
Rate shall be the Exchange Rate that was used to calculate the payment due on
the Payment Date occurring immediately prior to the occurrence of the Dollar
Constraint.

                  (l) Limitation on Holder Actions. Upon the occurrence and
during the continuation of any Dollar Constraint, the obligations of the Company
and each Guarantor hereunder and under the Securities shall be modified as set
forth in this Section 3.14, and neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall be
entitled to take action against the Company or any Guarantor, or any of their
respective subsidiaries or

                                       75
<PAGE>

affiliates, or their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees or
advisors, to enforce any rights against the Company or any Guarantor which the
Trustee or such Holder would, but for the provisions of this Section 3.14, have
had in respect of any Affected Payment.

                                  ARTICLE FOUR

                        DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE

            Section 4.01. Company's Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance.

            The Company may, at its option by Board Resolution, at any time
terminate certain of the obligations of the Company and any Guarantor with
respect to Outstanding Securities, as set forth in this Article, and elect to
have either Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 be applied to all of the Outstanding
Securities (the "Defeased Securities"), upon compliance with the conditions set
forth below in this Article Four.

            Section 4.02. Defeasance and Discharge.

            Upon the Company's exercise under Section 4.01 of the option
applicable to this Section 4.02, the Company and each Guarantor shall be deemed
to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to the Defeased
Securities on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied
(hereinafter, "defeasance"). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the
Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness
represented by the Defeased Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be
"Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 4.05 and the other Sections of
this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its
other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such
Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, and,
upon Company Request, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same),
except for the following, which shall survive until otherwise terminated or
discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of Defeased Securities to
receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 4.04 and as more fully
set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and interest
on such Securities when such payments are due, (b) the Company's obligations
with respect to such Defeased Securities under Sections 1.18, 1.19, 3.04, 3.05,
3.06, 7.01, 10.01, 10.03, 10.10, 10.11 (but only to the extent such section is
applicable to Default of an Indenture Obligation not defeased), and 10.12 (for
the purposes of applying Section 10.12, if the Trustee (or any qualifying
trustee pursuant to Section 4.04) is required by law or by the administration or
interpretation thereof to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of
Taxes from any payment made from the trust fund described in Section 4.04 under
or with respect to the Securities, such payment shall be deemed to have been
made by the Company and the Company shall be deemed to have been so required to
deduct or withhold) and (c) the rights, powers, trusts,

                                       76
<PAGE>

duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, including, without limitation,
the Trustee's rights under Section 6.07, and (d) this Article Four. Subject to
compliance with this Article Four, the Company may exercise its option under
this Section 4.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section
4.03 with respect to the Securities.

            Section 4.03. Covenant Defeasance.

            Upon the Company's exercise under Section 4.01 of the option
applicable to this Section 4.03, the Company and each Guarantor, if any, shall
be released from its obligations under any covenant or provision contained in
Sections 10.04, 10.05, 10.06, 10.07, 10.08, 10.09 and Sections 10.13 through
10.26 and the provisions of Article Eight shall not apply, with respect to the
Defeased Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth below are
satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and the Defeased Securities
shall thereafter be deemed not to be "Outstanding" for the purposes of any
direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the
consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall
continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this
purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Defeased
Securities, the Company and each Guarantor, if any, may omit to comply with and
shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set
forth in any such Section or Article, whether directly or indirectly, by reason
of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or Article or by reason of
any reference in any such Section or Article to any other provision herein or in
any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or
an Event of Default under Section 5.01(e) or, to the extent it relates to such
Section or Article, Section 5.01(d), but, except as specified above, the
remainder of this Indenture and such Defeased Securities shall be unaffected
thereby.

            Section 4.04. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

            The following shall be the conditions to application of either
Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 to the Defeased Securities:

            (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be
      deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements
      of Section 6.09 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this
      Article Four applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of
      making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and
      dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, (a)
      money, in United States dollars, in an amount, or (b) U.S. Government
      Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest
      in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later
      than one day before the due date of any payment, money, in United States
      dollars, in an amount, or (c) a combination thereof, in any such case,
      sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment banking
      firm

                                       77
<PAGE>

      or firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
      certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge and
      which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay
      and discharge, the principal of and interest on the Defeased Securities
      (including any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) on the
      scheduled principal repayment dates or any other Payment Date in respect
      of such principal or installment of principal or interest; provided,
      however, that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply
      such money or the proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations to said
      payments with respect to the Securities; and provided, further, that from
      and after the time of deposit, the money or U.S. Government Obligations
      deposited shall not be subject to the rights of the holders of other
      Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor;

            (2) No Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of
      such deposit or, insofar as Section 5.01(i), (j), (k) and (l) is
      concerned, at any time during the period ending on the ninety-first day
      after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition
      shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period);

            (3) Neither the Company nor any Guarantor of the Company is an
      "insolvent person" within the meaning of any applicable Bankruptcy Law on
      the date of such deposit or at any time during the period ending on the
      ninety-first day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that
      this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such
      period);

            (4) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause the
      Trustee for the Securities to have a conflicting interest in violation of
      Section 6.08 and for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to
      any securities of the Company or any Guarantor;

            (5) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a
      breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or
      any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is
      a party or by which it is bound;

            (6) In the case of an election under Section 4.02, the Company shall
      have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States
      reasonably acceptable to the Trustee stating that (x) the Company has
      received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue
      Service a ruling or (y) since the date hereof, there has been a change in
      the applicable United States Federal income tax law, in either case to the
      effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the
      Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or
      loss for United States Federal income tax purposes as a result of such
      defeasance and will be subject to United States Federal income tax

                                       78
<PAGE>

      on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would
      have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;

            (7) In the case of an election under Section 4.03, the Company shall
      have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel of United States
      counsel to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will
      not recognize income, gain or loss for United States Federal income tax
      purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to
      United States Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner
      and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant
      defeasance had not occurred;

            (8) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of
      Brazilian counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee to the effect that
      the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain
      or loss for Brazilian federal or state income tax or other tax purposes as
      a result of such defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, and
      will be subject to Brazilian federal and state income tax and other tax on
      the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have
      been the case if such defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable,
      had not occurred. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
      Indenture, this condition may not be waived by any Holder or the Trustee;

            (9) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, an Opinion of
      Counsel to the effect that (x) the trust funds established pursuant to
      this Article will not be subject to any rights of any other creditors of
      the Company, any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries or of any Guarantor or
      holders of other Indebtedness of the Company, any of its Affiliates or
      Subsidiaries or of any Guarantor, and (y) immediately following the
      ninety-first day after the deposit, the trust funds established pursuant
      to this Article will not be subject to the effect of any applicable
      bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting
      creditors' rights generally;

            (10) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's
      Certificate stating that the deposit made by the Company pursuant to its
      election under Section 4.02 or 4.03 was not made by the Company with the
      intent of preferring the Holders or any Guarantor over the other creditors
      of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or
      defrauding creditors of the Company or others; and

            (11) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's
      Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel in the United States and of the
      Federative Republic of Brazil each stating that (i) all conditions
      precedent (other than conditions requiring the passage of time) provided
      for relating to either the defeasance under Section 4.02 or the covenant
      defeasance under Section 4.03 (as

                                       79
<PAGE>

      the case may be) have been complied with as contemplated by this Section
      4.04 and (ii) if any other Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor
      shall then be outstanding or committed, such defeasance or covenant
      defeasance will not violate the provisions of the agreements or
      instruments evidencing such Indebtedness.

            Opinions required to be delivered under this Section may rely on
officer's certificates as to any matter of fact and have such qualifications as
are customary for opinions of the type required and acceptable to the Trustee.

            Section 4.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be
Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

            Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03,
all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof)
deposited with the Trustee (or other person that would qualify to act as
successor trustee under Article Six, collectively for purposes of this Section
4.05, the "Trustee") pursuant to Section 4.04 in respect of the Defeased
Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with
the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either
directly or through any Paying Agent (other than the Company) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal and interest, but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

            The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless
against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S.
Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 4.04 or the principal and
interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other
charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the Defeased
Securities.

            Anything in this Article Four to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company
Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in
Section 4.04 which, in the opinion of an internationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then
be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant
defeasance.

            Section 4.06. Reinstatement.

            If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S.
Government obligations in accordance with Section 4.02 or 4.03, as the case may
be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the
obligations of the

                                       80
<PAGE>

Company and of any Guarantor under this Indenture and the Securities shall be
revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section
4.02 or 4.03, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent
is permitted to apply all such money and U.S. Government Obligations in
accordance with Section 4.02 or 4.03, as the case may be; provided, however,
that if the Company makes any payment of principal or interest on any Security
following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated
to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the
money and U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

      in Brazil imposing foreign exchange restrictions, (ii) any declaration of
      a banking moratorium or suspension of payments by banks in Brazil or (iii)
      any war, civil strife or other similar events or escalation thereof in
      which Brazil is involved, which, in any case, will have the effect of
      prohibiting, preventing or delaying the payments in dollars to the Holders
      (any such event or occurrence, a "Dollar Constraint").

            Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

            If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in
Section 5.01(i), (j) or (k) with respect to the Company or a Guarantor or the
Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(l)) occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee shall, upon the request of the Holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities Outstanding, by written notice to
the Company, declare all principal of and any accrued and unpaid interest to the
date the Securities become due and payable on all outstanding Securities (and
any Additional Amounts relating thereto) to be immediately due and payable. Upon
any such declaration such principal and interest and any Additional Amounts with
respect thereto, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of
Default specified in Section 5.01(i), (j) or (k) with respect to the Company or
any Guarantor or the Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(l) occurs and is
continuing, then the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on
all the Securities and any Additional Amounts with respect thereto shall ipso
facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other
act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

            At any time after a declaration of acceleration has been made or
after any ipso facto acceleration following an Event of Default specified in
Section 5.01(i), (j) or (k) with respect to the Company or a Guarantor or the
Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(l) above and, in any such case,
before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by
the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the Securities Outstanding, by written notice
to the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration of acceleration or such
ipso facto acceleration following an Event of Default specified in Section
5.01(i), (j), (k) or (l), as the case may be, and its consequences if:

            (a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
      sufficient to pay

                  (i) all amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07, including
            the reasonable compensation, fees, expenses, disbursements and
            advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel,

                  (ii) all overdue interest on all Securities (including any
            Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof),

                  (iii) the principal of any Securities (including any
            Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) which have become due
            otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest
            thereon (including any Additional Amounts payable in respect
            thereof) at the rate then borne by the Securities, and

                                       85
<PAGE>

                  (iv) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
            interest (including any Additional Amounts payable in respect
            thereof) upon overdue interest at the rate then borne by the
            Securities;

            (b) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal
      of and any accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities which have become
      due solely as a result of such declaration of acceleration, have been
      cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13; and

            (c) such rescission or annulment of such declaration of acceleration
      would not conflict with any judgment or decree of any court of competent
      jurisdiction.

            No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any
      right consequent thereon.

            Section 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement
      by Trustee.

            The Company and each Guarantor covenant that if:

            (a) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security
      when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for
      a period of 30 days or more; or

            (b) default is made in the payment or prepayment of the principal of
      any Security at the relevant scheduled principal payment date determined
      in accordance with Section 3.01 and/or Article Eleven hereof, as the case
      may be;

the Company and each Guarantor shall, jointly and severally, upon demand of the
Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities,
the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and
interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that
payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments
of interest, at the rate then borne by the Securities; and, in addition thereto,
such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, fees, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due
the Trustee under Section 6.07 hereof.

            If the Company and each Guarantor fail to pay such amounts forthwith
upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, may, but is not obligated under this paragraph to, institute a judicial
proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid and may, but is not
obligated under this paragraph to, prosecute such proceeding to judgment or
final decree, and may, but is not

                                       86
<PAGE>

obligated under this paragraph to, enforce the same against the Company, any
Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities and collect the moneys
adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the
property of the Company or any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the
Securities, wherever situated.

            If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in
its discretion, but is not obligated under this paragraph to, (i) proceed to
protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders under this
Indenture or any Securities by such appropriate private or judicial proceedings
as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce such rights,
whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in
this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, including,
without limitation, seeking recourse against any Guarantor or (ii) proceed to
protect and enforce any other proper remedy, including, without limitation,
seeking recourse against any Guarantor. No recovery of any such judgment upon
any property of the Company or any Guarantor shall affect or impair any rights,
powers or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders.

            Section 5.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

            In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency,
liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities, including each Guarantor, or the property of the Company or of such
other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the
principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed
or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall
have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or
interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or
otherwise, but is not obligated under this paragraph

            (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and
      interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such
      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, fees, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
      its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section
      6.07 hereof) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

            (b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
      deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee
shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the
Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, fees, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the

Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under
Section 6.07 hereof.

            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 Securities
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 5.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Securities.

            All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the
Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession
of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating
thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in
its own name and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment
shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, fees,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and
any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 hereof, be for the ratable
benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has
been recovered.

            Section 5.06. Application of Money Collected.

            Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article, and,
after an Event of Default, any money or other property distributable in respect
of the Indenture Obligations, shall be applied in the following order, at the
date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such
money on account of principal or interest, upon presentation of the Securities
and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon
surrender thereof if fully paid:

            First: to the Trustee in payment for all amounts due the Trustee
      (including any predecessor Trustee) under Section 6.07;

            Second: to Holders for interest accrued on the Securities (including
      Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof), ratably, without
      preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and
      payable on the Securities for interest;

            Third: to Holders for principal amounts owing under the Securities
      (including Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof), ratably,
      without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due
      and payable on the Securities for principal;

                                       88
<PAGE>

            Fourth: to Holders for any other amounts owing under the Securities,
      ratably, without preference or priority of any kind; and

            Fifth: the balance, if any, to the Company or, to the extent the
      Trustee collects or there is otherwise so distributable any amounts from
      any Guarantor, to such Guarantor.

            The Trustee, upon prior written notice to the Company, may fix a
      record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this
      Section 5.06.

            Section 5.07. Limitation on Suits.

            No Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any
proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

            (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee
      of a continuing Event of Default;

            (b) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of
      the Outstanding Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee
      to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own
      name as Trustee hereunder;

            (c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable
      indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in
      compliance with such request;

            (d) the Trustee for 45 days after its receipt of such notice,
      request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such
      proceeding; and

            (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
      given to the Trustee during such 45-day period by the Holders of a
      majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any
right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of
this Indenture or any Security to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any
other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture or any Security,
except in the manner provided in this Indenture and for the equal and ratable
benefit of all the Holders.

            Section 5.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal
and Interest.

            Subject to the terms of Section 3.14 of this Indenture, the Holder
of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to
receive cash payment, in dollars, of the principal of and, subject to Section
3.06 hereof, interest on such Security (including any Additional Amounts payable
in respect thereof) on the respective Payment Date expressed in such Security
(or, in the case of prepayment, on the respective Prepayment Date) and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall
not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

            Section 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

            If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture or any Security 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 the Company, each of the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall,
subject to any determination in such proceeding, 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 had been instituted.

            Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

            Except as provided in Section 3.05, no right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or
otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.

            Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

            No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security
to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair
any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or
an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law
to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case
may be.

            Section 5.12. Control by Majority.

            The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities shall have the right to 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, provided, however, that:

            (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
      with this Indenture or any Security or expose the Trustee to personal
      liability; and

            (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
      Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

            Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults.

            The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all the
Securities waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences, except a
Default

            (a) in the cash payment in United States dollars of the principal of
      or interest on any Security and any Additional Amount payable in respect
      thereof, or

            (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article
      Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of
      each Outstanding Security affected.

            Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any
Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every
purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

            Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs.

            All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security
by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in
its discretion require, 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,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such
suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in
its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and
good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the
provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the
Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in
the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities,
or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement

                                       91
<PAGE>

of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security on or after the
respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
prepayment, on or after the respective Prepayment Dates).

            Section 5.15. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.

            Each of the Company and the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that
it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in
any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or
extension law or any usury or other law wherever enacted, now or at any time
hereafter in force, which would prohibit or forgive the Company or any Guarantor
from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Securities
contemplated herein or in the Securities or which may affect the covenants or
the performance of this Indenture; and each of the Company and the Guarantors
(to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit
or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or
impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer
and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been
enacted.

            Section 5.16. Change of Control.

            In the event of a Change of Control (the date of such occurrence,
the "Change of Control Date"), the Company shall, not later than 10 days
following the Change of Control Date, notify the Holders of Securities in
writing of such occurrence and shall make an offer to purchase all or any part
(equal to U.S.$1.00 or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder's Securities
(the "Change of Control Offer"), on a Business Day not later than 60 days
following the Change of Control Date (the "Change of Control Payment Date"), at
a cash purchase price in United States dollars equal to 100% of the principal
amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Change of
Control Payment Date (including any Additional Amounts payable in respect
thereof) (the "Change of Control Purchase Price"). Failure to mail such notice
on the date specified below or to have satisfied the foregoing obligations by
the date that the notice is required to be mailed shall constitute an Event of
Default under Section 5.01(d).

            Notice of a Change of Control Offer shall be mailed by the Company
not later than 10 days after the Change of Control Date to each of the Holders
of Securities at their last registered address with a copy to the Trustee and
each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee). The Change of Control Offer shall
remain open from the time of mailing for at least 20 Business Days and until
5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Change of Control Payment Date. The
notice, which shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer, shall
include such disclosures as are required by law and shall state:

            (a) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this
      Section 5.16 and that all Securities tendered into the Change of Control
      Offer will be accepted for payment;

                                       92
<PAGE>

            (b) the purchase price (including the amount of accrued interest, if
      any) for each Security, the Change of Control Payment Date, the last date
      on which the Change of Control Notice (as defined below) must be given to
      a Paying Agent, the date on which the Change of Control Offer expires and
      the names and addresses of any Paying Agent;

            (c) that any Security not tendered for payment will continue to
      accrue interest in accordance with its terms;

            (d) that, unless the Company shall default in the payment of the
      Change of Control Purchase Price, any Security accepted for payment
      pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest
      after the Change of Control Payment Date;

            (e) that Holders electing to have Securities purchased pursuant to a
      Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender their Securities to
      a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to 5:00 p.m.,
      New York City time, on the Change of Control Payment Date and must
      complete a notice of such election in the form of Exhibit A hereto or such
      other form proposed by the Company and acceptable to the Trustee (the
      "Change of Control Purchase Notice");

            (f) that Holders of Securities will be entitled to withdraw their
      election if the Paying Agent designated by the Company receives, not later
      than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Change of Control Payment Date,
      a tested telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of
      the Holder, the principal amount of Securities the Holder delivered for
      purchase, the Security certificate number (if any) and a statement that
      such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Securities purchased;

            (g) that Holders whose Securities are purchased only in part will be
      issued Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of
      the Securities surrendered; and

            (h) the instructions that Holders must follow in order to tender
      their Securities and the procedures for withdrawing a Change in Control
      Purchase Notice.

            Such notice shall be accompanied by information concerning the
business of the Company, the most recent annual and quarterly reports of the
Company filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act (or, if the
Company is not required to file any such reports with the Commission, the
comparable reports prepared pursuant to Section 10.11), a description of
material developments in the Company's business, information with respect to pro
forma historical financial information after giving effect

                                       93
<PAGE>

to such Change of Control and such other information concerning the
circumstances and relevant facts regarding such Change of Control and Change of
Control Offer as would be material to a Holder of Securities in connection with
the decision of such Holder as to whether or not it should tender Securities
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, including, but not limited to, the
events causing such Change of Control and the date such Change of Control is
deemed to have occurred.

            On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the
extent lawful (i) accept for payment Securities or portions thereof tendered
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent
designated by the Company money in United States dollars, in immediately
available funds, sufficient to pay the Change of Control Purchase Price of all
Securities or portions thereof so tendered and accepted (including any
Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) and (iii) deliver to the Trustee
the Securities so accepted together with an Officer's Certificate setting forth
the Securities or portions thereof tendered to and accepted for payment by the
Company. The Paying Agent designated by the Company shall promptly mail or
deliver to the Holders of Securities so accepted payment in an amount equal to
such Change of Control Purchase Price, and the Trustee shall promptly
authenticate and mail or deliver or cause to be transferred by book entry to
such Holders a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion
of each Security surrendered, if any, provided that each such new Security shall
be in a principal amount of U.S.$1.00 or an integral multiple thereof. Any
Securities not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company
to the Holder thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the
Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable following the Change of
Control Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
5.16, the Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer in
order to satisfy the requirements of this Section 5.16 if a third party makes
the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in full
compliance with the requirements applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by
the Company and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn
pursuant to such Change of Control Offer; provided, however, that any such third
party shall be subject to Section 10.12 in respect of any amounts paid by such
third party hereunder (for this purpose, Section 10.12 is modified by replacing
"Company" with the name of the third party) and such Event of Default shall be
cured only if such third party complies with Section 10.08 (as modified) or if
the Company satisfies such third party's obligations under such Section.

            The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the
requirements of all applicable tender offer laws and regulations, including, to
the extent applicable, Section 14(e) of and Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act,
and the Company or any third party making a Change of Control Offer shall comply
with any other applicable United States or foreign securities laws or
regulations, including applicable laws or regulations of the Federative Republic
of Brazil or any State thereof, and any applicable requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Securities are listed, in connection

                                       94
<PAGE>

with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the
extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with
the provisions of this Section 5.16, the Company shall comply with the
applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under this Section 5.16 by virtue thereof.

            Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder
delivering to the Paying Agent designated by the Company, at the office of such
Paying Agent or an office or agency referred to in Section 10.10, the Change in
Control Purchase Notice contemplated by this Section 5.16 shall have the right
to withdraw such Change in Control Purchase Notice at any time prior to the
close of business on the Change in Control Purchase Date by delivery of a
written notice of withdrawal to such Paying Agent or to an office or agency
referred to in Section 10.10.

            For purposes of this Section 5.16, the Trustee shall act as Paying
Agent unless the Company shall designate one or more other Paying Agents.
Notwithstanding Section 3.07 and Section 10.03, the Company may not act as
Paying Agent under this Section 5.16.

                                  ARTICLE SIX

                                  THE TRUSTEE

            Section 6.01. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

            (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default,

            (i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such
      duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
      covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the
      Trustee; and

            (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
      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; but
      in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by provision hereof
      are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee
      shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they
      conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

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

                                       95
<PAGE>

            (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

            (i) this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of
      Subsections (a) and (d) of this Section;

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

            (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
      taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
      direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
      Outstanding Securities relating to the time, method and place of
      conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
      exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this
      Indenture with respect to the Securities.

            (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture
shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the
exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk
or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

            (e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of
this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or
affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this
Section 6.01.

            Section 6.02. Notice of Defaults.

            Within 30 days after the occurrence of any Default, the Trustee
shall transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in
the Security Register, notice of such Default hereunder known to the Trustee,
unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that,
except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest
on any security (including any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof),
the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a
trust committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines
that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders.

            Section 6.03. Certain Rights of Trustee.

            Subject to Section 6.01 hereof:

                                       96
<PAGE>

            (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, notice, request, direction,
      consent, order, approval, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, coupon,
      security, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document
      believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the
      proper party or parties;

            (b) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall
      be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order, and any
      resolution of the Board of the Company or any Guarantor may be
      sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution thereof or by an Officer's
      Certificate of such Person as having been duly adopted and being in full
      force and effect on the date of such certificate;

            (c) the Trustee may consult, at the expense of the Company, with
      counsel and any advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be
      full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action
      taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
      thereon;

            (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 or
      direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such
      Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably
      satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities
      which might be incurred by the Trustee in compliance with such request or
      direction;

            (e) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered
      or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be
      authorized or within the discretion, rights or powers conferred upon it by
      this Indenture that is not so authorized or conferred;

            (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
      the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
      instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
      approval, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, coupon, security, other
      evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document; provided the Trustee
      in its discretion may make such further inquiry or investigation into such
      facts or matters as it may deem fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine
      to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to
      examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by
      agent or attorney during the reasonable business hours of the Company; the
      reasonable expenses of every such investigation shall be paid by the
      Company or, if paid by the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee, shall be
      repaid by the Company upon demand;

                                       97
<PAGE>

            (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 the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
      negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by
      it hereunder;

            (h) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee
      shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
      taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, the Trustee
      (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the
      absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely upon an Officer's
      Certificate;

            (i) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or be charged
      with knowledge(within the meaning of Section 6.02) of any Default or Event
      of Default unless written notice of such Default or Event of Default, as
      the case may be, is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office
      of the Trustee from the Company, any other obligor upon such Securities or
      by any Holder, and such notice references the Securities or 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 (including the Principal
      Paying Agent), custodian, co-trustee and other Person employed to act
      hereunder;

            (k) the Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer's

      officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to
      this Indenture, which Officer's Certificate may be signed by any persons
      authorized to sign an Officer's Certificate, including any person
      specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered
      and not superseded;

            (l) the permissive right of the Trustee hereunder to take or omit to
      take any action shall not be construed as a duty;

            (m) the Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure
      or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture
      arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond
      its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God;

            Section 6.04. Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals, Dispositions of
Securities or Application of Proceeds Thereof.

            The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the
Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of
the Company and the Guarantors, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating
Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the
Securities, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to
execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and perform its
obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it in a Statement of
Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1 supplied to the Company and any other
obligor upon the Securities in connection with the registration of any
Securities and any and all Guarantees issued hereunder were true when made, and
accurate subject to the qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee shall not
be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the
proceeds thereof.

            Section 6.05. Trustee and Agents May Hold Securities; Collections;
etc.

            The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security Registrar or any other agent
of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of Securities, with the same rights it would have if it were not the
Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent and, subject to
Sections 6.08 and 6.13 hereof and Sections 310 and 311 of the Trust Indenture
Act, may otherwise deal with the Company and receive, collect, hold and retain
collections from the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not
the Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

            Section 6.06. Money Held in Trust.

            All moneys received by the Trustee or any Paying Agent shall, until
used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which
they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required herein or by law. None of the Trustee or any Paying Agent shall
be under any liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder.

            Section 6.07. Compensation and Indemnification of Trustee and Its
Prior Claim.

            The Company and each Guarantor covenant and agree:

            (a) to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall
      be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it
      hereunder (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to
      the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

                                       99
<PAGE>

            (b) to reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee upon its
      request for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, fees,
      disbursements and advances incurred or made by or on behalf of it in
      accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the
      reasonable and documented compensation, fees, and the expenses and
      disbursements of its counsel and of all agents and other persons not
      regularly in its employ), except any such reasonable expense, disbursement
      or advance as may arise from its negligence, bad faith or willful
      misconduct; and

            (c) to indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for, and
      to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred
      without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on its part, arising
      out of or in connection with this Indenture, including the acceptance or
      administration of this Indenture or the trusts hereunder and the
      performance of its duties hereunder, including enforcement of this Section
      6.07, and the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of defending
      itself (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of its
      counsel) in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its
      powers or duties hereunder. The obligations of the Company and each
      Guarantor under this Section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and
      each predecessor Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each
      predecessor Trustee for such expenses, fees, disbursements and advances
      shall constitute an additional obligation hereunder and, together with the
      Lien provided for in the next sentence, shall survive the resignation or
      removal of the Trustee, the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
      and/or the termination of this Indenture for any reason. To secure the
      obligations of the Company and of each Guarantor to the Trustee under this
      Section 6.07, the Trustee shall have a prior Lien upon all property and
      funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds and property
      paid by the company or any Guarantor and held in trust for the benefit of
      the Holders of particular Securities under this Indenture. The Trustee
      shall be entitled to file a proof of claim in any bankruptcy proceeding as
      a secured creditor for its reasonable compensation, fees and expenses
      under this Section 6.07.

            In addition and without prejudice to the rights provided to the
Trustee under any of the provisions of this Indenture, when the Trustee incurs
expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in
Section 5.01(i), Section 5.01(j), Section 5.01(k) or Section 5.01(l), the
expenses (including the reasonable and documented charges and expenses of its
counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute
expenses of administration under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or comparable or
expenses in the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(l).

            Section 6.08. Conflicting Interests.

            If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within
the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall
eliminate such interest, apply to the Commission for permission to continue as
trustee or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to
the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. To the extent
permitted by such Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting
interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture, under the Net Sul
Indenture or under any other indenture or indentures under which other
securities, or certificates of interest or participation in other securities, of
the Company are any Guarantor are outstanding. Nothing herein shall prevent the
Trustee from filing with the Commission the application referred to in the
second to last paragraph of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.

            Section 6.09. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

            There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be
eligible to act as Trustee under Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(a)(1) and
310(a)(5) and which shall be a United States banking institution with a combined
capital and surplus of at least U.S.$300,000,000, and have a Corporate Trust
Office in The City of New York. If such institution publishes reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of United
States Federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or
examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital
and surplus of such institution shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at
any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

            Section 6.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor
Trustee.

            (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.11.

            (b) The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereinafter appointed,
may at any time resign by giving written notice thereof to the Company. Upon
receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a
successor trustee by written instrument executed by authority of the Board of
the Company, a copy of which shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and a
copy to the successor Trustee. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor
Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 20 Business Days
after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may, or
any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months

                                      101
<PAGE>

may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. Such court
may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint a
successor Trustee.

            (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time by an Act of the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, delivered to
the Trustee and to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor
Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee
within 30 days after the Trustee's receipt of such notice of removal, the
departing Trustee may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect
to the Securities of such series.

            (d) If at any time:

            (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section
      310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with Section 6.08 hereof
      after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has
      been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

            (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 hereof
      and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or
      by any such Holder, or

            (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
      adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its
      property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
      control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose or
      rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution of its Board may remove
the Trustee, or (ii) subject to Section 5.14, the Holder of any Security who has
been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of
himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor
Trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem
proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee.

            (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of
acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the
Company, by a Board Resolution of its Board, shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee in accordance with Section 6.11. If, within one year after such
resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a
successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities delivered to the Company and the
retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its
acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee

                                      102
<PAGE>

and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor
Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of the
Securities and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, the
Holder of any Security who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months
may, subject to Section 5.14, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Trustee.

            (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each
removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee by mailing
written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the
Holders of Securities as their names and addresses appear in the Security
Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the
address of its Corporate Trust Office.

            Section 6.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

            Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument
accepting such appointment, 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 the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee as if originally named as
Trustee hereunder; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or
the successor Trustee, upon payment of amounts due it pursuant to Section 6.07,
such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to the successor
Trustee all moneys and property at the time held by it hereunder and shall
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the
rights, powers, duties and obligations of the retiring Trustee, subject to the
lien provided for in Section 6.07. Upon request of any such successor Trustee,
the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly
vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights and powers.
Any Trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a prior claim upon all
property or funds held or collected by such Trustee to secure any amounts then
due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.07.

            No successor Trustee with respect to the Securities shall accept
appointment as provided in this Section 6.11 unless at the time of such
acceptance such successor Trustee shall be eligible to act as Trustee under this
Article.

            Upon acceptance of appointment by any successor Trustee as provided
in this Section 6.11, the successor shall give notice thereof to the Holders of
the Securities, by mailing such notice to such Holders at their addresses as
they shall appear on the Security Register. If the acceptance of appointment is
substantially contemporaneous with the resignation, then the notice called for
by the preceding sentence may be combined with the notice called for by Section
6.10(f).

            Section 6.12. Merger, Conversion, Amalgamation, Consolidation or
Succession to Business.

            Any Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated or amalgamated, or any Person resulting from any
merger, conversion, amalgamation or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be
a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate
trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto, provided such Person shall be eligible under this
Article to serve as Trustee hereunder.

            In case at the time such successor to the Trustee under this Section
6.12 shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities
shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the
Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee
and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and, in case at that time any of
the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee
under this Section 6.12 may authenticate such Securities either in the name of
any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee; and in all
such cases such certificate shall have the full force which it is anywhere in
the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee
shall have.

            Section 6.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

            The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture
Act, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of that Act.
If the present or any future Trustee shall resign or be removed, it shall be
subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent provided
therein.

            Section 6.14. Appointment of Co-Trustee.

            The Company and the Trustee shall have power to appoint, and, upon
the written request of the Trustee or of the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, the Company shall for such
purpose join with the Trustee in the execution and delivery of all instruments
and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons approved by
the Trustee and, if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
by the Company to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Trustee. If the Company or
any applicable Guarantor does not join in such appointment within 15 days after
the receipt by it of a request so to do, or if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have power to make such
appointment.

            Every co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such
extent only, be appointed subject to the following conditions:

                                      104
<PAGE>

            (a) the Securities 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;

            (b) the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or
      imposed upon the Trustee in respect of any property covered by such
      appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed
      either by the Trustee or by the Trustee and such co-trustee jointly, as
      shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee, except to
      the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular
      act is to be performed the Trustee 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 co-trustee;

            (c) the Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by
      it, with the concurrence of the Company, may accept the resignation of or
      remove any co-trustee appointed under this Section, and, if an Event of
      Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee shall have
      power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee without
      the concurrence of the Company. Upon the written request of the Trustee,
      the Company and each applicable Guarantor shall join with the Trustee in
      the execution and delivery of all instruments and agreements necessary or
      proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor to any
      co-trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided
      in this Section;

            (d) neither the Trustee nor any co-trustee trustee hereunder shall
      be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee
      hereunder; and

            (e) any Act of Holders delivered to the Trustee shall be deemed to
      have been delivered to each such co-trustee.

            Section 6.15. Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

            Pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3.03, the Trustee may
appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to the Securities which
shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities
issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial prepayment thereof or
pursuant to Section 3.06, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to
the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all
purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is
made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the
Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be
deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the

                                      105
<PAGE>

Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed
on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent
shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, any State or
Territory thereof or the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto
Rico, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Authenticating
Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to
the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such
Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately
in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

            Any Person into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be
a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate
agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to
be an Authenticating Agent, provided such Person shall be otherwise eligible
under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

            An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof
to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating
Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company. Any successor Authenticating
Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all
the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as
if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating
Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

            The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to
time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.

            The provisions of Sections 3.08, 6.04 and 6.05 shall be applicable
to each Authenticating Agent.

            If an appointment with respect to the Securities shall be made
pursuant to this Section, such Securities may have endorsed thereon, in addition
to the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of
authentication substantially in the following form:

            This is one of the Securities referred to in the within-mentioned
Indenture.

                                    THE BANK OF NEW YORK, as Trustee

                                    By______________________________,
                                       as Authenticating Agent

                                    By______________________
                                       Authorized Officer

            Section 6.16. Intercreditor Agreement; No Obligations With Respect
to Collateral or Other Security Documents.

            (a) Each Holder, by accepting any of the Securities, appoints and
      authorizes the Trustee to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement
      on behalf of such Holder, and agrees to be bound by the provisions of the
      Intercreditor Agreement, including, without limitation, Article Four
      thereof. The Company and the Guarantors hereby acknowledge that the
      Trustee will execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement as aforesaid
      and consent to the same. 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 connection with its entering into and performance of its duties
      under and in respect of the Intercreditor Agreement.

            (b) Notwithstanding its execution and delivery of the Intercreditor
      Agreement and the performance of its duties thereunder, the Trustee shall
      have no duty or liability in respect of, or obligation to perform or
      observe any of the provisions of, any of the other Security Documents or
      the Collateral.

            (c) The Trustee shall have no duty, obligation or liability under or
      in respect of any of the Security Documents (other than in respect of its
      obligation aforesaid to perform its duties under the Intercreditor
      Agreement) by reason of or arising out of this Indenture, nor shall the
      Trustee be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the
      Collateral Agent or any other party thereto or to take any action to
      collect or enforce any claim for payment hereunder, thereunder or
      otherwise. The Trustee shall have no obligation to enforce any provision
      of the

                                      107
<PAGE>

      Security Documents or to take any other steps in connection with the

      certain Defaults hereunder and their consequences) or consent provided for
      in this Indenture or with respect to any Security;

                                      114

            Upon the written request of the Company and each Guarantor
accompanied by a copy of a Board Resolution of the Board of each of them
authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture or other agreement,
instrument or waiver, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the
consent of Holders as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company and
each Guarantor in the execution of such supplemental indenture or other
agreement, instrument or waiver.

agreement, instrument or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall
approve the substance thereof.

            Section 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures, Agreements and
Waivers.

            In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture, agreement, instrument or waiver permitted by this
Article Nine or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this
Indenture, the Trustee shall be

                                      115
<PAGE>

entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.01 hereof) shall be fully
protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer's Certificate
from each obligor under the Securities entering into such supplemental
indenture, agreement, instrument or waiver, each stating that the execution of
such supplemental indenture, agreement, instrument or waiver (a) is authorized
or permitted by this Indenture and (b) does not violate the provisions of any
agreement or instrument evidencing any other Indebtedness of the Company, any
Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Company. The Trustee may, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture, agreement, instrument
or waiver which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture, the Securities or otherwise.

            Section 9.04. Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

            Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article
Nine, this Indenture and the Securities, if applicable, shall be modified in
accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this
Indenture and the Securities, if applicable, as the case may be, for all
purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated
and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

            Section 9.05. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

            Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article Nine
shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

            Section 9.06. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

            Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by
the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine,
new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the
Board of the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and
executed by the Company and each Guarantor and authenticated and delivered by
the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities.

            Section 9.07. Record Date.

            The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix, with the
approval of the Trustee, a record date for the purpose of determining the
Holders entitled to consent to any supplemental indenture, agreement or
instrument or any waiver, and shall promptly notify the Trustee of any such
record date. If a record date is fixed, those persons who were Holders at such
record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those persons, shall be
entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, agreement, instrument or
waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such

                                      116
<PAGE>

persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be
valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

            Section 9.08. Revocation and Effect of Consents.

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

existence and all necessary registrations and take all actions to maintain all
rights, licenses, privileges, titles to property, and franchises necessary or
desirable in the normal conduct of their respective businesses, activities or

and its Restricted Subsidiaries to maintain any right, license, privilege, title
to property, or franchise; or (b) the Company to preserve the corporate,
partnership or other existence of any Restricted Subsidiary, if the failure to
do so would not have a material adverse effect on the Company and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or have a material adverse effect on the rights
of the Holders of the Securities. This limitation shall not prohibit a sale,
transfer or other conveyance of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or any of

            Section 10.03. Money for Security Payments to Be Held in Trust.

            If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it

amounts owing in respect of, any of the Securities, segregate and hold in trust
for the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the
principal of, interest on, or any other amounts owing with respect to, any of
the Securities so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such persons or
otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and shall promptly notify the Trustee
of its action or failure so to act.

or before each due date of the principal of or interest on, any Securities,
deposit with a Paying Agent a sum in same day funds sufficient to pay the
principal or interest so becoming due in the manner set forth in Section 3.07,
such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled to such
principal or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company
shall promptly notify the Trustee of such action or any failure so to act.

            If the Company is not acting as Paying Agent, the Company shall
cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the
Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee,
subject to the provisions of this Section 10.03, that such Paying Agent shall:

            (a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of or
      interest on Securities in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled
      thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Holders or otherwise
      disposed of as herein provided;

            (b) give the Trustee notice of any Default by the Company or any
      Guarantors (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any
      payment of principal of or interest on the Securities;

            (c) at any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon the
      written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so
      held in trust by such Paying Agent; and

            (d) acknowledge, accept and agree to comply in all aspects with the
      provisions of this Indenture relating to the duties, rights and
      liabilities of such Paying Agent.

            The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or
by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in
trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee
upon the same

                                      118
<PAGE>

trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying
Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying
Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

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

            Section 10.04. Maintenance of Properties.

            The Company shall, and the Company shall cause its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, keep its property that is useful or necessary in the conduct of
its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear
excepted; provided that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be
required to maintain any such property if the failure to do so would not have a
material adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole,
or have a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holders.

            Section 10.05. Compliance with Laws.

            The Company shall, and the Company shall cause its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, comply at all times with all applicable laws, rules,
regulations, orders and directives of any government or governmental agency or
authority having jurisdiction over the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries,
their respective businesses or any of the transactions contemplated by the
Securities and this Indenture, except for such noncompliances as would not have
a material adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole,
or have a material adverse effect on the rights or remedies of the Holders.

            Section 10.06. Maintenance of Governmental Authorizations.

            The Company shall, and the Company shall cause its Restricted
Subsidiaries to duly and promptly obtain and maintain in full force and effect
all

                                      119
<PAGE>

consents, concessions, authorizations, approvals or licenses of any government
or governmental agency or authority under the laws of Brazil or any jurisdiction
having jurisdiction over the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case
may be, necessary in all cases for the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries,
as the case may be (a) to operate their respective businesses and (b) to perform
their respective obligations under the Securities and this Indenture, as the
case may be, including, without limitation, any authorization required to obtain
and transfer U.S. dollars out of Brazil in connection with payments under the
Securities and this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and
its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be in breach of this covenant by reason of
the occurrence of a Dollar Constraint; provided that, in the event of a Dollar
Constraint, the Company complies with the applicable requirements described in
Section 3.14.

            Section 10.07. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims.

            The Company shall, and shall cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become
delinquent, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed
upon the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, which, if
unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be; provided, however, that neither the
Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall 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 contested in good faith and, if
appropriate, by appropriate legal proceedings or where the failure to pay or
discharge, or cause to be paid or discharged, would not have a material adverse
effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or have a material
adverse effect on the rights of the Holders.

            Section 10.08. Maintenance of Insurance.

            The Company shall, and the Company shall cause its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, maintain insurance with insurance companies that the Company

risks as is customarily carried by companies engaged in similar businesses and
owning and/or operating properties or facilities similar to those owned and/or
operated by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries in the same general
locations in which the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries own and/or
operate properties or facilities (which may include self-insurance, if
reasonable and in comparable form to that maintained by companies similarly
situated).

Securities and this Indenture may be served. Initially, this office or agency

            Notwithstanding that the Company may not be required to be or remain
subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act, the Company shall file (if then permitted to do so) with the Commission and
provide (whether or not so filed with the Commission), within 15 days after the
date on which the Company is required to file the same with the Commission (or
would be so required if it were subject to such reporting requirements), the
Trustee and Holders and prospective Holders (upon request) with the annual

            The Company shall provide to the Trustee:

            (a) promptly (but in any event within 10 Business Days of any
      Officer of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary becoming aware of the
      occurrence) notice of the occurrence of (i) a Default, (ii) an Event of
      Default, (iii) any action by any holder of Senior Secured Indebtedness to
      accelerate Indebtedness owing to it by the Company or a Restricted
      Subsidiary or (iv) any legal action by any holder of Senior Secured
      Indebtedness to enforce Indebtedness owing to it by the Company or a
      Restricted Subsidiary;

            (b) promptly (but in any event within 10 Business Days after sending
      any notice described in clause (a) immediately above), a written report
      prepared by an Officer of the Company setting forth the details of the
      relevant event and the action that the Company and any applicable

            (c) promptly, notice that any Default or Event of Default has been
      cured, along with an Officer's Certificate describing the steps taken in
      connection with the cure.

            Section 10.12. Additional Amounts.

            (a) Except as provided below, the Company or any Guarantor shall
make all payments of principal and interest on the Securities without
withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes,
duties, assessments, fees, levies or other governmental charges of any nature
and any fines, penalties or interest related thereto (collectively, "Taxes")
imposed by Brazil or the jurisdiction in which the Paying Agent or any Guarantor
is organized or from or through which payment is made, or in each case, any
political subdivision or governmental authority of those jurisdictions having
the power to tax (each, a "Taxing Jurisdiction"). If the Company or any
Guarantor is required by law to withhold or deduct any such Taxes, except as
provided below, the Company or such Guarantor shall pay the Holders any
additional amounts necessary to ensure that they receive the same amount as they
would have received without such withholding or deduction ("Additional
Amounts").

            The Company or any Guarantor shall not, however, pay any Additional
Amounts in connection with any Tax that is imposed due to or in respect of any
of the following:

            (i) the Holder or beneficial owner has some connection (present or
      former) with the Taxing Jurisdiction other than merely holding the
      Securities or receiving principal or interest payments on the Securities
      (such as, without limitation, citizenship, nationality, residence,
      domicile, or existence of a business,

                                      122
<PAGE>

      a permanent establishment, a dependent agent, a place of business or a
      place of management present or deemed present within the Taxing
      Jurisdiction);

            (ii) any Tax imposed on, or measured by, net income;

            (iii) the failure of a Holder to comply with a request by the
      Company or any Guarantor to satisfy any certification, identification or
      other reporting requirements, imposed as a precondition to exemption from
      or reduction in the rate of such tax by statute, treaty, regulation or
      administrative practices, concerning nationality, residence or connection
      with a Taxing Jurisdiction; provided that at least 30 days prior to the
      first payment date with respect to which compliance with such
      certification, identification or other reporting requirement is required,
      the Holder has been notified by the Company or the Paying Agent that such
      compliance is required;

            (iv) if, where presentation is required, the Holder has failed to
      present its Securities within 30 days after the date such payment was due
      and payable or such payment was provided for, whichever is later;

            (v) where any Tax is imposed on a payment on the Securities and is
      required to be made pursuant to Council Directive 2003/48/EC of the
      Council of the European Union on the taxation of income in the form of
      interest payments (or any European Union Directive otherwise implementing
      the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council Meeting of 26 and 27 November 2000)
      or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to
      conform to, any such Directive;

            (vi) if, where presentation is required, the Holder or beneficial
      owner could avoid any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge
      by presenting the relevant Securities for payment to, another paying agent
      located in a member state of the European Union;

            (vii) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal
      property or other similar taxes; and

            (viii) any Tax which is payable otherwise than by deduction or
      withholding from payments made under or with respect to the Securities.

            (b) The Company or any Guarantor shall also (i) make such
withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount withheld or deducted to
the relevant taxing authority in accordance with applicable law. Following
written request from the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee, as
soon as practicable after the date of payment of any such Taxes, certified
copies of tax receipts or, if such receipts are not obtainable, documentation
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing such

                                      123
<PAGE>

payment by the Company or such Guarantor. Upon written request from any Holder
to the Trustee, copies of such receipts or other documentation, as the case may
be, shall be made available to the Holder. At least 10 Business Days prior to
each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Securities is due
and payable, if the Company or any Guarantor is obligated to pay Additional
Amounts with respect to such payment, the Company or any Guarantor shall deliver
to the Trustee an officer's certificate stating that Additional Amounts will be
payable, the amounts so payable and setting forth such other information as the
Trustee may reasonably require for tax purposes.

            (c) The Company or any Guarantor shall, upon the written request of
any Holder, indemnify and hold harmless and reimburse such Holder for the amount
of any Taxes imposed by any Taxing Jurisdiction (other than any such Taxes for
which the Holder would not have been entitled to receive Additional Amounts
pursuant to any of the conditions described in the second paragraph of this
Section 10.12, or Taxes that result from the gross negligence or unreasonable
delay of such Holder) so imposed on, and paid by, such Holder as a result of any
payment of principal or interest on the Securities, so that the net amount
received by such Holder after such reimbursement would not be less than the net
amount the Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been imposed or
levied and so paid. Holders shall be obligated to provide reasonable
documentation and to cooperate with the Company in connection with the
foregoing.

            (d) The Company or any Guarantor shall pay any stamp,
administrative, court, documentary, excise or similar taxes arising in a Taxing
Jurisdiction in connection with the Securities and shall indemnify the Holders
for any such taxes paid by Holders.

            (e) If European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other Directive
implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November
2000 is brought into force and the Company is otherwise using a paying agent
located in a member state of the European Union, the Company shall use
reasonable efforts to maintain a paying agent in a European Union member state
that will not be obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to the Directive;
provided that the Company shall not be required to maintain any such paying
agent if doing so would be detrimental to the Company or any Guarantor.

            (f) All references to principal, interest or other amounts payable
on the Securities shall be deemed to include any Additional Amounts payable by
the Company or any Guarantor under the Securities or this Indenture. The
foregoing obligations shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of
the Securities and this Indenture.

Subsidiary to, create, Incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist any
Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of their respective
property or assets, or any proceeds from such property or assets, to secure any
Indebtedness without making effective provision whereby all of the Securities
will be directly secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such
Indebtedness.

            Section 10.14. Limitation on Additional Indebtedness.

            The Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any additional
Indebtedness; provided, however, that the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries may Incur Indebtedness if on the date of the Incurrence of such
Indebtedness (x) the Consolidated Interest Expense Ratio would be greater than

Section 10.26):

            (i) in excess of:

                  (A) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004,
            U.S.$50,000,000, or its equivalent in another currency or
            currencies; and

                  (B) in the case of any fiscal year ending after December 31,
            2004, U.S.$50,000,000, or its equivalent in another currency or

            immediately preceding fiscal year; and

            (ii) during any fiscal quarter, that exceeds 50% of the applicable
      maximum amount specified for the respective fiscal year during which such
      fiscal quarter occurs;

provided, however, that if, for any fiscal year, the amount of Capital
Expenditures permitted by this paragraph (a) exceeds the aggregate amount of
Capital Expenditures actually made by the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries during such fiscal year (the amount of such excess being the
"Excess Amount"), the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be entitled
to make additional Capital Expenditures in the immediately succeeding fiscal
year in an amount equal to that permitted under clause (i) above, plus the
lesser of (x) the Excess Amount and (y) 20% of the amount of Capital
Expenditures that would have been permitted in respect of the preceding fiscal
year. For the purposes of calculating Capital Expenditures made for any fiscal
year, any permitted Capital Expenditures carried over from the previous fiscal
year shall be deemed utilized first during such fiscal year.

                                      129

<PAGE>

            For the purposes of this Section 10.18, Capital Expenditures made
after the date of any Asset Sale shall be deemed to have been made with, but not

            (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the preceding
limitation on Capital Expenditures, the U.S. Dollar-equivalent of Capital
Expenditures made in a currency other than U.S. Dollars shall be calculated
based on the average currency exchange rate for the month in which the Capital
Expenditure was made or committed.

            (c) The limitation on Capital Expenditures set forth in this Section
10.18 shall cease to exist from and after such time as the Company's
Consolidated Leverage Ratio, measured at the end of the four consecutive fiscal
quarters of the Company immediately preceding the date of determination, is
equal to or less than 1.00 to 1.00.

            Section 10.19. Limitations on Designations of Restricted and

Subsidiary of the Company on the Issue Date may be designated as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary by resolution of the Board of Directors at the time when such
Subsidiary is acquired or created; provided that no such designation shall be

      Company;

            (ii) the Investment in such Subsidiary is permitted at the time of
      such designation under Section 10.15 hereof;

            (iii) such Subsidiary does not hold any license, permit or
      authorization used in a Permitted Business on the Issue Date;

            (iv) assuming that all transactions or arrangements between such
      Subsidiary and the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary were entered into
      at the time of such designation, such transactions or arrangements would
      be permitted under Section 10.17 hereof; and

            (v) immediately after giving effect to such designation, no
      condition or event shall exist that constitutes an Event of Default or an
      event or condition that,

                                      130

<PAGE>

      with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute an
      Event of Default.

            (b) The Board of Directors may redesignate any Unrestricted
Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect to
such redesignation (i) there would not exist a Default; and (ii) the Company

exist on the Issue Date, provided that the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries may make Asset Sales in compliance with Section 10.26 and pledge
property and assets to the extent permitted under Section 10.13.

Restricted Subsidiaries to, amend, modify or terminate, or consent to the
amendment, modification or termination of the Certificate of Incorporation,
Bylaws or other constitutive documents of the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, unless the amendment, modification or
termination would not have a material adverse effect upon the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary, either individually or taken as a whole, or have a
material adverse effect on the rights and remedies of the Holders.

            Section 10.23. Accounting Changes.

                            PREPAYMENT OF SECURITIES

            Section 11.01. Optional Prepayment.

            The Company, or any Person designated by the Company, may prepay
Securities at any time in a total aggregate principal amount of not less than
U.S.$1,000,000 or integral multiples of U.S.$500,000 in excess thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date fixed for prepayment.

            Section 11.02. Mandatory Prepayment.

            (a) Excess Cash Flow. On June 15, 2006, and on June 15 of each
following year, the Company shall prepay Securities in a principal amount equal
to the product of (i) the Prepayment Percentage multiplied by (ii) the Excess
Cash Flow Prepayment Amount for the preceding fiscal year, if any. On each such
date on which such a prepayment is to be made, the Company shall provide the
Trustee with a notice of prepayment of Securities setting forth the amount of
such prepayment.

            (b) Senior Secured Indebtedness. Within five Business Days prior to
the voluntary prepayment of, voluntary redemption of, voluntary repurchase of,
or voluntary purchase of a participation in, any Senior Secured Indebtedness
(other than the Securities), the Company shall provide the Trustee with a notice
of prepayment of Securities in a principal amount equal to the product of (i)
the Prior Prepayment Percentage multiplied by (ii) the principal amount of such
prepayment, redemption, repurchase, or purchase of a participation.

            (c) Additional Indebtedness. No fewer than five Business Days after
the Incurrence of additional Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness,
except for Refinancing Indebtedness the first time that it is Incurred in
respect of Senior Secured Indebtedness), the Company shall provide the Trustee
with a notice of prepayment of Securities in a principal amount equal to the
product of (i) 80% multiplied by (ii) the product of (A) the Prepayment
Percentage multiplied by (B) the Net Cash Proceeds of such Indebtedness Incurred
or issued by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

            (d) Equity Issuances.

            (i) Within five Business Days after the receipt of the payment
      therefor, if the average price per share received by the Company for the
      sale of Equity Interests of the Company issued to consummate the
      Restructuring (the "Closing Equity Issuance") exceeds R$0.35, the Company
      shall provide the Trustee with a notice of prepayment of Securities in a
      principal amount equal to

                                      133

<PAGE>
      product of (i) the Prepayment Percentage multiplied by (ii) the Excess
      Proceeds of the Closing Equity Issuance. The proceeds of the Closing
      equity Issuance that are not applied, or required to be applied, to prepay
      the Securities under this Sectionw11.02(d)(i) may be applied by the
      Company for any purpose, including, without limitation, the repayment of
      the Bridge Loan.

            (ii) Within five Business Days after the occurrence of the sale of
      Equity Interests of the Company (other than the Closing Equity Issuance)
      by the Company, the Company shall provide the Trustee with a notice of
      prepayment of Securities in a principal amount equal to the product of (i)
      70% multiplied by (ii) the Prepayment Percentage, of the Net Cash Proceeds
      of the sale of such Equity Interests of the Company by the Company (other
      than the Closing Equity Issuance). If, on the date immediately preceding
      an Equity Issuance, the cash and Cash Equivalents of the Company and its
      Restricted Subsidiaries on such date is less than the Minimum Cash
      Balance, the Net Cash Proceeds of such Equity Issuance shall be deemed to
      be reduced by the difference between the Minimum Cash Balance and the cash
      and Cash Equivalents of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on
      such date.

            (e) Asset Sales. Within 60 days after the date of any Asset Sale
permitted under Section 10.26, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a notice
of prepayment of Securities in a principal amount equal to the product of:

            (i) the Prepayment Percentage multiplied by:

            (ii) the lesser of:

                  (1) 80% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale; and

                  (2) the greater of:

                        (x) 50% of such Net Cash Proceeds; and

                        (y) such Net Cash Proceeds minus any portion thereof
                  that shall have been applied to make Capital Expenditures.

            Section 11.03. Applicability of Article.

            Prepayment of Securities at the election of the Company or
otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision of this Indenture or the
Securities, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article.

            Section 11.04. Application and Deferral of Prepayment.

            Prepayments in accordance with this Article Eleven shall be applied
first to the last scheduled principal repayments of the Securities as determined
in accordance with Section 3.01. From and after any Prepayment Date, interest
shall cease to accrue on the aggregate principal amount of Securities prepaid on
such Prepayment Date.

      amount of such Security to be prepaid;

            (c) that on the Prepayment Date the prepayment shall become due and
      payable upon each such Security or portion thereof, and that, on and after
      any Prepayment Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the aggregate
      principal amount of Securities prepaid on such Prepayment Date;

            (d) the CUSIP number, if any, relating to such Securities; and

            (e) the paragraph of the Securities pursuant to which the Securities
      are being prepaid.

            Section 11.06. Deposit of Prepayment Amount.

            By 10:00 a.m. New York City time, no later than one Business Day
prior to any Prepayment Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with
a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate
and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount equal to the principal
amount of the Securities to be prepaid pursuant to Section 11.01 or 11.02, as
applicable (plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon as of such Prepayment
Date).

Indenture Obligations shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in
accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension
of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or any of such other Indenture
Obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in
accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed,
or failing performance of any other obligation of the Company to the Holders,
for whatever reason, each Guarantor shall be obligated to pay, or to perform or
cause the performance of, the same immediately. An Event of Default under this
Indenture or the Securities shall constitute an event of default under this
Guarantee, and shall entitle the Holders of Securities to accelerate the
obligations of the Guarantors hereunder in the same manner and to the same
extent as the obligations of the Company.

            Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder
shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Securities or this Indenture, the absence of any action to
enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder 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, whether or
not a Guarantee is affixed to any particular Security, or any other circumstance
which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
guarantor. Each of the Guarantors hereby waives the benefit of diligence,
presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of
insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first
against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants
that its Guarantee

                                      137

<PAGE>

shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations
contained in the Securities, this Indenture and this Guarantee. This Guarantee
is a guarantee of payment and not of collection. If any Holder or the Trustee is
required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company or to any Guarantor,
or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in
relation to the Company or such Guarantor, any amount paid by the Company or
such Guarantor to the Trustee 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 it, on the one hand, and the Holders
and the Trustee, on the other hand, (a) subject to this Article Thirteen, the
maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in
Article Five hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any
stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of
the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (b) in the event of any acceleration of
such obligations as provided in Article Five hereof, such obligations (whether
or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors
for the purpose of this Guarantee.

            This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to
be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for
liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be
appointed for all or any significant part of the Company's assets, and shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated,
as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Securities
are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must
otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Securities, whether as a
"voidable preference," "fraudulent transfer" or otherwise, all as though such
payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any
part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Securities shall,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by
such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

            The Guarantors hereby agree that the obligations of each Guarantor
hereunder at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in
the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder not constituting a fraudulent
transfer or conveyance.

            No stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator, past,
present or future, or any Guarantor, as such, shall have any personal liability
under this Guarantee by reason of his, her or its status as such stockholder,
officer, director, employee or incorporator.

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

                                      138

            (b) To further evidence the Guarantee set forth in Section 13.01(a),
each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantee, substantially in
the form included in Section 2.06, shall be endorsed on each Security
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and such Guarantee shall be executed
by either manual or facsimile signature of a legal representative of each
Guarantor. The validity and enforceability of any Guarantee shall not be
affected by the fact that it is not affixed to any particular Security.

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

            If a legal representative of a Guarantor whose signature is on this
Indenture or a notation of Guarantee ceases to be a legal representative of such
Guarantor at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security on which such
Guarantee is endorsed or at any time thereafter, such Guarantor's Guarantee of
such Security shall be valid nevertheless.

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

            Section 13.02. Additional Guarantors.

            All future Restricted Subsidiaries shall, and any other Person may,
become a Guarantor by executing and delivering to the Trustee (a) a supplemental
indenture in substantially the form of Exhibit B to this Indenture, which
subjects such Person to the provisions of this Indenture as a Guarantor, and (b)
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been
duly authorized and executed by such Person and constitutes the legal, valid,
binding and enforceable obligations of such Person (subject to customary
exceptions concerning bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, creditors' rights, laws
of general application and equitable principles).

            Section 13.03. Release of a Guarantor.

            (a) If no Default exists or would exist under this Indenture, upon
the sale or disposition of all of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor by the
Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company in a transaction permitted
under this Indenture or upon the consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or
into any person in compliance with Article Eight (in each case, other than to
the Company or an Affiliate of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary), such
Guarantor and each Subsidiary of such Guarantor that is also a Guarantor shall
be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all
obligations under this Article Thirteen without any

                                      139

<PAGE>

further action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder; provided,
however, that each such Guarantor is sold or disposed of in accordance with this
Indenture.

            (b) The Trustee shall deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing
the release of a Guarantor upon receipt of a Company Order or request of such
Guarantor accompanied by an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
certifying as to the compliance with this Section 13.03. Any Guarantor not so
released or the entity surviving such Guarantor, as applicable, shall remain or
be liable under its Guarantee as provided in this Article Thirteen.

            The Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the
Company or a Guarantor in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from
its obligations under its Guarantee under this Article Thirteen.

            Except as set forth in Article Eight and Article Ten and this
Section 13.03, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities
shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the
Company or another Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the
property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the
Company or another Guarantor.

            Section 13.04. Waiver of Subrogation.

            Until this Indenture is discharged and all amounts owing in respect
of the Securities are discharged and paid in full, each Guarantor hereby
irrevocably waives and agrees not to exercise any claim or other rights which it
may now or hereafter acquire against the Company that arise from the existence,
payment, performance or enforcement of the Company's obligations under the
Securities or this Indenture and such Guarantor's obligations under this
Guarantee and this Indenture, in any such instance including, without
limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution,
indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the
Guaranteed Parties against the Company, whether or not such claim, remedy or
right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including,
without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Company, directly or
indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner,
payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount
shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and any
amounts owing to the Trustee or the Holders of Securities under the Securities,
this Indenture, or any other document or instrument delivered under or in
connection with such agreements or instruments, shall not have been paid in
full, such amount shall have been deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for
the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Guaranteed Parties and
shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders to be
credited and applied to the obligations in favor of the Guaranteed Parties,
whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.
Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits

                                      140

<PAGE>

from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the
waiver set forth in this Section 13.04 is knowingly made in contemplation of
such benefits.

            Section 13.05. Immediate Payment.

            Each Guarantor agrees to make immediate payment to the Trustee on
behalf of the Guaranteed Parties of all Guaranteed Obligations owing or payable
to the respective Guaranteed Parties upon receipt of a demand for payment
therefor by the Trustee to such Guarantor in writing.

            Section 13.06. No Set-Off.

            Each payment to be made by a Guarantor hereunder in respect of the
Guaranteed Obligations shall be payable in the currency or currencies in which
such Guaranteed Obligations are denominated, and shall be made without set-off,
counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

            Section 13.07. Obligations Absolute.

            The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are and shall be
absolute and unconditional and any monies or amounts expressed to be owing or
payable by each Guarantor hereunder which may not be recoverable from such
Guarantor on the basis of a guarantee shall be recoverable from such Guarantor
as a primary obligor and principal debtor in respect thereof.

            Section 13.08. Obligations Continuing.

            The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be continuing and
shall remain in full force and effect until all the Guaranteed Obligations have
been paid and satisfied in full.

            Section 13.09. Obligations Not Reduced.

            The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be satisfied,
reduced or discharged by any intermediate payment or satisfaction of the whole
or any part of the principal, interest, fees and other monies or amounts which
may at any time be or become owing or payable under or by virtue of or otherwise
in connection with the Securities or this Indenture.

            Section 13.10. Obligations Reinstated.

            The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall continue to be
effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment
which would otherwise have reduced the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder
(whether such payment shall have been made by or on behalf of the Company or by
or on behalf of a

                                      141

<PAGE>

Guarantor) is rescinded or reclaimed from any of the Guaranteed Parties upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or any
Guarantor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. If demand
for, or acceleration of the time for, payment by the Company is stayed upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, all such
indebtedness otherwise subject to demand for payment or acceleration shall
nonetheless be payable by each Guarantor as provided herein.

            Section 13.11. Obligations Not Affected.

            The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected,
impaired or diminished in any way by any act, omission, matter or thing
whatsoever, occurring before, upon or after any demand for payment hereunder
(and whether or not known or consented to by any Guarantor or any of the
Guaranteed Parties) which, but for this provision, might constitute a whole or
partial defense to a claim against any Guarantor hereunder or might operate to
release or otherwise exonerate any Guarantor from any of its obligations
hereunder or otherwise affect such obligations, whether occasioned by default of
any of the Guaranteed Parties or otherwise, including, without limitation:

            (a) any limitation of status or power, disability, incapacity or
      other circumstance relating to the Company or any other person, including
      any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment,
      composition, dissolution, winding-up or other proceeding involving or
      affecting the Company or any other person;

            (b) any irregularity, defect, unenforceability or invalidity in
      respect of any indebtedness or other obligation of the Company or any
      other person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other document or
      instrument;

            (c) any failure of the Company, whether or not without fault on its
      part, to perform or comply with any of the provisions of this Indenture or
      the Securities, or to give notice thereof to a Guarantor;

            (d) the taking or enforcing or exercising or the refusal or neglect
      to take or enforce or exercise any right or remedy from or against the
      Company or any other Person or their respective assets or the release or
      discharge of any such right or remedy;

            (e) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any
      Collateral or any other collateral;

            (f) any manner of application of Collateral or any other collateral,
      or proceeds thereof, to all or any Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner
      of sale or

                                      142

<PAGE>

      other disposition of any Collateral or any other collateral for all or any
      of the Guaranteed Obligations;

            (g) the granting of time, renewals, extensions, compromises,
      concessions, waivers, releases, discharges and other indulgences to the
      Company or any other person;

            (h) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
      other term of, any of the Securities, or any other amendment, variation,
      supplement, replacement or waiver of, or any consent to departure from,
      any of the Securities or this Indenture, including, without limitation,
      any increase or decrease in the principal amount of or premium, if any, or
      interest on any of the Securities;

            (i) any change in the ownership, control, name, objects, businesses,
      assets, capital structure or constitution of the Company or a Guarantor;

            (j) any merger or amalgamation of the Company or a Guarantor with
      any Person or Persons;

            (k) the occurrence of any change in the laws, rules, regulations or
      ordinances of any jurisdiction by any present or future action of any
      governmental authority or court amending, varying, reducing or otherwise
      affecting, or purporting to amend, vary, reduce or otherwise affect, any
      of the Guaranteed Obligations or the obligations of a Guarantor under its
      Guarantee; and

            (l) any other circumstance (other than by complete, irrevocable
      payment) that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or
      defense of the Company under this Indenture or the Securities or of a
      Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee hereunder.

            Section 13.12. Waiver.

            Without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 13.01 hereof,
each Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance hereof, notice of any
liability of any Guarantor hereunder, notice or proof of reliance by the
Guaranteed Parties upon the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder, and
diligence, presentment, demand for payment on the Company, protest, notice of
dishonor or non-payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or other notice or
formalities to the Company or any Guarantor of any kind whatsoever. Each of the
Guarantors hereby waives all benefits set forth in articles 1491, 1494, 1498,
1499, 1500 and 1503 of the Brazilian Civil Code, articles 261 and 262 of the
Brazilian Commercial Code and article 595 of the Brazilian Civil Procedure Code.

            Neither the Trustee nor any of the other Guaranteed Parties shall
have any obligation to enforce or exhaust any rights or remedies or to take any
other steps under any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or against the
Company or any other person or any property of the Company or any other person
before the Trustee is entitled to demand payment and performance by any or all
Guarantors of their liabilities and obligations under their Guarantees or under
this Indenture.

            Section 13.14. Dealing with Company and Others.

            The Guaranteed Parties, without releasing, discharging, limiting or
otherwise affecting in whole or in part the obligations and liabilities of any
Guarantor hereunder and without the consent of or notice to any Guarantor, may:

      matters contemplated by this Indenture or the Securities;

            (d) accept compromises or arrangements from the Company;

            (e) apply all monies at any time received from the Company or from
      any security upon such part of the Guaranteed Obligations as the

      with, the Company and all other Persons and any security as the Guaranteed
      Parties or the Trustee may see fit.

            Section 13.15. Default and Enforcement.

            If any Guarantor fails to pay in accordance with Section 13.05

Obligations thereunder and hereunder by

                                      144

<PAGE>

any remedy provided by law, whether by legal proceedings or otherwise, and to
recover from such Guarantor the Guaranteed Obligations.

            Section 13.16. Amendment, etc.

            No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Indenture relating to any Guarantor or consent to any departure by any Guarantor

            Without prejudice to the survival of any of the other obligations of
each Guarantor hereunder, the obligations of each Guarantor under Section 13.06

enforceable against such Guarantor without regard to and without giving effect
to any defense, right of offset or counterclaim available to or which may be
asserted by the Company or any Guarantor.

            Section 13.21. Guarantee in Addition to Other Obligations.

            The obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee and this

or the Securities and any guarantees or security at any time held by or for the
benefit of any of them.

            Section 13.22. Severability.

            Any provision of this Article Thirteen which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the remaining provisions

Each of the Consenting Noteholders hereby represents and warrants to the other
parties hereto as follows:

                  (i)      Such Consenting Noteholder is an entity duly
         organized and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
         formation.

                  (ii)     Such Consenting Noteholder has all legal and
         corporate powers and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement
         and to perform all of its obligations set forth herein.

                  (iii)    This Agreement is a legal, valid and binding
         obligation of such Consenting Noteholder, enforceable against such
         Consenting Noteholder in accordance with its terms.

         for its own account (or for the account of funds that such Consenting
         Noteholder manages), and not as nominee or agent, for the purpose of
         investment and not with a view to distribution in violation of the
         Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Such
         Consenting Noteholder understands that it must bear the economic risk
         of its investment for an indefinite period of time because the New
         Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any applicable
         state securities laws and may not be resold unless subsequently
         registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such
         registration is available. Such Consenting Noteholder hereby agrees
         that the New Notes will not be transferred, sold or otherwise disposed
         of other than (i) pursuant to a registration statement under the
         Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption therefrom and (ii) in
         compliance with any applicable state securities laws. Such Consenting
         Noteholder acknowledges that, in issuing the New Notes, the Company is
         relying on the representations and warranties of such Consenting
         Noteholder in this Section 6.01.

                  (v)      Such Consenting Noteholder represents that it is a
         sophisticated institutional investor and has such knowledge and
         experience in financial and business matters; and that it is capable of
         evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the New Notes.
         Such Consenting Noteholder has been given access to all information
         regarding the Net Parties that such Consenting Noteholder has requested
         in order to evaluate its investment in the New Notes. Such Consenting
         Noteholder further represents that it is an "accredited investor" as
         such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the SEC under the
         Securities Act with respect to the purchase of the New Notes.

annexes, in accordance with the terms and deadlines established in this
Agreement.

liquidation of the obligations contemplated herein, under penalty of breach of
contract, shall be made by electronic transfer (TED), to the credit of current
account N(degrees). [    ], branch [ ] at [   ] or, through prior notice of at

clause.

CLAUSE 3 INTEREST

The Principal amount shall be increased by remuneratory interest ("Interest")
corresponding to, (a) the CDI rate plus a spread or premium of 2% (two percent)
per year between this date and December 14, 2005 and, (b) the CDI rate plus a
spread or premium of 3% (three percent) per year from December 15, 2005
(inclusive) until the final payment of the same amount.

The payment of the Interest in accordance with this Clause shall be made by the
Net Company to the Creditor Institution on a quarterly basis, every March 15,
June 15, September 15 and December 15, from the present date onwards, always
with regard to the immediately preceding period; including the starting date and
excluding the payment date.

<PAGE>

      FIRST PARAGRAPH For the purposes of this Agreement, "CDI" shall mean an
interest rate, expressed as an annual percentage, corresponding to the result of
compounding on a daily basis, calculated for a year of 252 business days, of the
interest rate of interbank market certificates of deposit (CDI) for one business
day, published by the Central de Custodia e de Liquidacao Financeira de Titulos
(CETIP) [Securities Custody and Settlement Center] under the term "DI rate -
Over Extragrupo", or any other reference rate of the Brazilian Financial System,
which may replace it. The spread or premium shall be calculated on the basis of
a year of 252 business days.

      SECOND PARAGRAPH In the event of the temporary unavailability of the CDI
rate at the time of payment of any monetary obligation resulting from the
determination of Interest, the same daily rate produced by the last known CDI
rate shall be used as a replacement until the calculation date, with no
financial compensation being due either from the Net Group Companies or from the
Creditor Institution, as and when the respective DI rate is subsequently
published.

      THIRD PARAGRAPH In the absence of the calculation and/or publication of
the CDI rate for a period longer than 15 (fifteen) consecutive business days
after the Date of Effectiveness, or, additionally, in the event of its
extinction or inapplicability due to legal imposition, the CDI rate shall be
replaced by the average rate of daily fundings, backed by federal securities and
determined by the Sistema Especial de Liquidacao e Custodia [Special Liquidation
and Custody System] ("Selic Rate"), or, in its absence, the reference rate of
the Brazilian Financial System that may replace the Selic Rate ("Replacement
Rate").

      FOURTH PARAGRAPH In the event that there is no Replacement Rate, the Net
Group Companies and the Creditor Institution shall define, in 5 (five) business
day, jointly and by common agreement, in compliance with the applicable
legislation, a single parameter to be used in the remuneration of all the
respective credits, which shall be proposed by the Net Company. Until this
parameter has been determined, the same known daily rate for the last CDI rate
or Selic rate, as per the case, shall be used to calculate any obligations
established in this Clause.

      FIFTH PARAGRAPH If the Replacement Rate is published before the definition
of the new parameter, the Replacement Rate shall be used to calculate the
Interest starting from the date of its publication.

      SIXTH PARAGRAPH In the event that the new parameter is not defined by
common agreement by the Net Company and the Creditor Institution within the
period determined above, the parameter used shall be the average cost for
funding in the interbank market for one day interbank transactions, as effected
by the 5 (five) largest private financial institutions, in accordance with the
ranking published by the Central Bank of Brazil.

(ii.a) if, since the beginning of the same period, Net Servicos or any

operations constituting a "Sale"), the EBITDA for the same period shall be

by an amount equal to EBITDA (if this is negative) directly attributable to the
assets forming the object of the same Asset Sale during the period under
consideration;

(ii.b) if Net Servicos or any Restricted Subsidiary has made an Investment (by

Restricted Subsidiary, or through the acquisition of any person, business or
group of assets constituting an operational business unit, including any
Investment or acquisition of assets within the context of a transaction that
makes it necessary to carry out the calculation to which this item refers (each

Subsidiary, would have given rise to an accounting adjustment in accordance with
the terms of subclauses (ii.a) and (ii.b) above, the EBITDA for the same period
shall be calculated on a pro forma basis, as if the Sale or Purchase in question
had occurred on the first day of the same period.

For purposes of this definition, whenever it is necessary to make a pro forma
calculation for an Asset Sale, Investment, acquisition of assets or any
transaction made in accordance with Clause 2.16 of the Agreement, or of the
amount of revenues or capital gains arising from the operations in question, the
applicable pro forma calculations shall be carried out in the determined manner

for the period consisting of the four most recent consecutive fiscal quarters
ending prior to the date of determination for which the consolidated financial

four fiscal quarters, determined, in each case, for each fiscal quarter (or
portion thereof) of the four fiscal quarters ending prior to the date of signing
of the Agreement, calculated on a pro forma basis to simulate the Restructuring
as if it had occurred at the beginning of the same four-quarter period, with the
proviso that:

(a.1) if Net Servicos or any Restricted Subsidiary (i) has incurred any
Indebtedness since the beginning of the same period that has not been paid in
full by the date of determination or has incurred any Indebtedness since the
start of the same period, and on the date of determination of the Consolidated
Interest Expense Ratio, the same has

<PAGE>

not been paid in full, or if the transaction giving rise to the need to
calculate the Consolidated Interest Expense Ratio is an Incurrence of Debt, then
the EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for the same period shall be
calculated after calculating the same Indebtedness on a pro forma basis, as if
the same Indebtedness had been incurred on the first day of the same period
(albeit for this calculation, the amount of Indebtedness arising from any
revolving credit facility outstanding on the date of the same calculation shall
be computed based on (x) the average daily balance of the same Indebtedness
during the same four fiscal quarters or during any shorter period for which the
same facility was outstanding or (y) the average daily balance of the same
Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of the same facility
until the date of the same calculation, in the event that the same facility was
created after the end of the same four fiscal quarters), or (ii) has, during the
period for the same calculation, repaid, repurchased, redeemed or otherwise
discharged any Indebtedness (each the same operation constituting a
"Discharge"), with the same Indebtedness no longer outstanding on the date of
the calculation, or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the
Consolidated Interest Expense Ratio involves a discharge of Indebtedness
(provided that the Indebtedness does not relate to any revolving credit facility
that remains to be permanently repaid), the EBITDA and Consolidated Interest
Expense for the same period shall be calculated after calculating the Discharge
of the same Indebtedness on a pro forma basis, as if the same discharge had
occurred on the first day of the same period of calculation;

(a.2) if Net Servicos or any Restricted Subsidiary has, during the calculation
period, made any Asset Sale of any person, business or any group of assets
constituting an operating unit of a business (any the same transaction
constituting a "Sale"), the EBITDA for the same period shall be calculated (x)
by subtracting an amount equal to EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to
the assets that are the subject of the same Asset Sale for the same period or
increased by an amount equal to the EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable
to the same assets forming the object of the Asset Sale carried out during the
same period, or (y) by adding an amount equal to the EBITDA (if negative)
directly attributable to the same assets forming the object of the Asset Sale
carried out during the same period. To the degree that Net Servicos or any
Restricted Subsidiary is no longer responsible for the same Indebtedness after
the same Asset Sale, the Net Consolidated Interest Expense for the same period
shall be reduced by an amount equivalent to the Net Consolidated Interest
Expense of Net Servicos or any Restricted Subsidiary that has been

<PAGE>

paid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged as a result of the same
Asset Sale during the period in question (and if significant Equity Interests in
the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary are disposed of, this amount
shall be the Net Consolidated Interest Expense for the same period directly
attributable to the Indebtedness of the same Restricted Subsidiary);

(a.3) if during the same calculation period, Net Servicos or any Restricted
Subsidiary (whether by incorporation, merger or otherwise) has made an
Investment in any Person, as a result of which the latter Person becomes a
Restricted Subsidiary, or otherwise acquires any person, business or group of
assets constituting an operating unit of a business, including any the same
Investment or acquisition of assets that gives rise to an obligation to
calculate the Consolidated Interest Expense Ratio in accordance with the
definition herein (any one of these transactions constituting a "Purchase"), the
EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for the same period shall be calculated
after calculating the value of the same Investment or acquisition on a pro forma
basis (including the incurring of any Indebtedness), as if the same Investment
or acquisition had occurred on the first day of the same period;

(a.4) if any Person that comes to be considered as a Restricted Subsidiary
during the period in question or that merged with Net Servicos or with any
Restricted Subsidiary or was incorporated by the same companies, has carried out
any Sale or Purchase that would have required an accounting adjustment in
accordance with subitems (a.1), (a.2) or (a.3) above, the EBITDA and
Consolidated Interest Expense for the period in question shall be calculated
after calculating the effect of the same operation on a pro forma basis, as if
it had occurred on the first day of the same period; and

(a.5) if any Person that comes to be considered as a Restricted Subsidiary
during the period in question or that merged with Net Servicos or with any
Restricted Subsidiary or was incorporated by the same companies, and in any
case, by means of a Purchase has discharged any Indebtedness or carried out any
Sale or Purchase which, if effected by Net Servicos or by a Restricted
Subsidiary during the period in question, would have required an accounting
adjustment in accordance with subitems (a.1), (a.2), (a.3) or (a.4) above, the
EBITDA and the Net Consolidated Interest Expense for the period in question
shall be calculated after calculating the effect of the Sale, Purchase or
Discharge in question on a pro forma basis, as if the same operation had
occurred on the first day of the relevant period.

For the purposes of this definition, whenever it is necessary to calculate on a
pro forma basis the effect of a Asset Sale, Investment or acquisition of assets
or any transaction governed by the provisions of Clause 2.16 of the Agreement,
the EBITDA for the operations in question and the Net Consolidated Interest
Expense associated with any Indebtedness incurred, repaid, repurchased, defeased
or otherwise discharged as a result

<PAGE>

of the operations in question, the associated pro forma calculations shall be
carried out by a Director of Net Servicos, based on reasonable assumptions, in
the manner determined in this Agreement and in good faith. If any Indebtedness
bears a floating rate of interest and is being calculated on a pro forma basis,
the interest expense on the same Indebtedness shall be calculated as the average
rate in effect during the same period (taking into account any Interest Rate
Agreement that applies to the same Indebtedness and that remains in force for an
additional period of 12 months reckoned from the relevant calculation date). For
the pro forma calculation of any Indebtedness arising in conjunction with a
revolving credit facility, the interest expense on the same Indebtedness shall
be calculated on the basis of the average daily balance of this Indebtedness
during the period in question.

"DEBT INSTRUMENTS" shall mean this Agreement, the Common Terms Agreement and the
respective Instruments of Debt Confession, as defined in the Intercreditor
