     Section 2. Shelf  Registration.  (a) The Company  shall prepare and file or
cause to be prepared and filed with the SEC, as soon as  practicable  but in any
event by the date (the "Filing  Deadline Date") ninety (90) days after the Issue
Date,  a  Registration  Statement  for an  offering  to be made on a delayed  or
continuous  basis  pursuant  to  Rule  415  of  the  Securities  Act  (a  "Shelf
Registration  Statement")  registering  the resale  from time to time by Holders
thereof of all of the Registrable  Securities  (the "Initial Shelf  Registration
Statement").  The Initial Shelf  Registration  Statement shall be on Form S-3 or
another appropriate form permitting  registration of such Registrable Securities
for  resale by such  Holders in  accordance  with the  methods  of  distribution
elected  by the  Holders  and  set  forth  in  the  Initial  Shelf  Registration
Statement,  provided that in no event will such method(s) of  distribution  take
the form of an underwritten  offering of the Registrable  Securities without the
prior  agreement of the Company.  The Company  shall use  reasonable  efforts to
cause the Initial Shelf  Registration  Statement to be declared  effective under
the Securities  Act as promptly as is  practicable  but in any event by the date
(the  "Effectiveness  Deadline  Date") that is one hundred and eighty (180) days
after the Issue  Date,  and shall use best  efforts  to keep the  Initial  Shelf
Registration   Statement  (or  any  Subsequent  Shelf  Registration   Statement)
continuously  effective  under the  Securities  Act until the  expiration of the
Effectiveness  Period;  provided,  however,  that no Holder shall be entitled to
have the Registrable  Securities  held by it covered by such Shelf  Registration
Statement  unless such Holder shall have provided a Notice and  Questionnaire in
accordance  with Section 2(d) and is in  compliance  with Section 4. None of the
Company's  security  holders (other than the Holders of Registrable  Securities)
shall have the right to include  any of the  Company's  securities  in the Shelf
Registration  Statement,  except  that the  Company  may  include  in the  Shelf
Registration  Statement the shares of Common Stock  registrable  pursuant to the
Registration  Rights Agreement dated February 23, 2000 between the Company,  Cox
Enterprises, Inc. and the Initial Purchasers.

     (b) If the Initial Shelf  Registration  Statement or any  Subsequent  Shelf
Registration  Statement ceases to be effective for any reason at any time during
the  Effectiveness  Period  (other  than  because  all  Registrable   Securities
registered  thereunder  shall  have been sold  pursuant  thereto  or shall  have
otherwise  ceased  to be  Registrable  Securities),  the  Company  shall use its
reasonable best efforts to obtain the prompt  withdrawal of any order suspending
the  effectiveness  thereof,  and in any event shall within  thirty (30) days of
such  cessation of  effectiveness  amend the Shelf  Registration  Statement in a
manner reasonably  expected to obtain the withdrawal of the order suspending the
effectiveness  thereof,  or  file an  additional  Shelf  Registration  Statement
covering  all of  the  securities  that  as of  the  date  of  such  filing  are
Registrable  Securities (a  "Subsequent  Shelf  Registration  Statement").  If a
Subsequent  Shelf  Registration  Statement  is  filed,  the  Company  shall  use
reasonable  efforts to cause the  Subsequent  Shelf  Registration  Statement  to
become  effective as promptly as is practicable  after such filing and shall use
reasonable best efforts to keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement (or
another Subsequent Shelf Registration  Statement)  continuously  effective until
the end of the Effectiveness Period.

     (c) The Company shall supplement and amend the Shelf Registration Statement
if  required  by  the  rules,  regulations  or  instructions  applicable  to the
registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration  Statement, if
required by the Securities Act or, to the extent to which the Company does not

                                        5
<PAGE>

reasonably  object, as reasonably  requested by the Initial Purchasers or by the
Trustee on behalf of the Notice Holders.

     (d) Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that if such Holder wishes
to sell Registrable  Securities  pursuant to a Shelf Registration  Statement and
related Prospectus,  it will do so only in accordance with this Section 2(d) and
Section 3(i). Each Holder of Registrable  Securities wishing to sell Registrable
Securities  pursuant to a Shelf  Registration  Statement and related  Prospectus
agrees to deliver a Notice and  Questionnaire  to the Company at least three (3)
Business Days prior to any intended distribution of Registrable Securities under
the Shelf  Registration  Statement.  From and after the date the  Initial  Shelf
Registration Statement is declared effective,  the Company shall, as promptly as
is practicable  after the date a Notice and  Questionnaire is delivered,  and in
any event  within seven (7)  Business  Days after such date,  (i) if required by
applicable  law,  file  with the SEC a  post-effective  amendment  to the  Shelf
Registration  Statement or prepare and, if required by  applicable  law,  file a
supplement  to the  related  Prospectus  or a  supplement  or  amendment  to any
document  incorporated  therein by reference or file any other required document
so that the  Holder  delivering  such  Notice  and  Questionnaire  is named as a
selling  security  holder in the Shelf  Registration  Statement  and the related
Prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver such  Prospectus
to purchasers of the  Registrable  Securities in accordance  with applicable law
and,  if  the  Company  shall  file a  post-effective  amendment  to  the  Shelf
Registration  Statement,  use  reasonable  efforts to cause such  post-effective
amendment to be declared  effective  under the  Securities Act as promptly as is
practicable, but in any event by the date (the "Amendment Effectiveness Deadline
Date") that is sixty (60) days after the date such  post-effective  amendment is
required  by this clause to be filed;  (ii)  provide  such Holder  copies of any
documents  filed  pursuant to Section  2(d)(i);  and (iii) notify such Holder as
promptly as practicable after the effectiveness  under the Securities Act of any
post-effective  amendment filed pursuant to Section 2(d)(i);  provided,  that if
such Notice and Questionnaire is delivered during a Deferral Period, the Company
shall so inform the Holder  delivering such Notice and  Questionnaire  and shall
take the actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above upon  expiration
of the Deferral Period in accordance with Section 3(i), provided,  further, that
if, under applicable law, the Company has more than one option as to the type or
manner of making any such filing, it will make the required filing or filings in
the manner or of a type that is  reasonably  expected to result in the  earliest
availability of the Prospectus for effecting resales of Registrable  Securities.
Notwithstanding  anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be
under no  obligation to name any Holder that is not a Notice Holder as a selling
security holder in any Registration  Statement or related Prospectus;  provided,
however, that any Holder that becomes a Notice Holder pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 2(d) (whether or not such Holder was a Notice Holder at the time
the Registration  Statement was declared  effective) shall be named as a selling
security  holder  in  the  Registration   Statement  or  related  Prospectus  in
accordance with the requirements of this Section 2(d).

     (e) The parties  hereto  agree that the Holders of  Registrable  Securities
will suffer  damages,  and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent
of such damages with precision,  if (i) the Initial Shelf Registration Statement
has not been filed on or prior to the Filing  Deadline  Date,  (ii) the  Initial
Shelf  Registration   Statement  has  not  been  declared  effective  under  the
Securities Act on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline Date, (iii) the Company
has failed to perform its  obligations  set forth in Section 2(d) hereof  within
the time periods required  therein,  or (iv) the aggregate  duration of Deferral
Periods in any period  exceeds the number of days  permitted  in respect of such
period  pursuant to Section 3(i) hereof (each of the events of a type  described
in any of the foregoing  clauses (i) through (iv) are  individually  referred to
herein as an "Event,"  and the Filing  Deadline  Date in the case of clause (i),
the  Effectiveness  Deadline Date in the case of clause (ii),  the date by which
the Company is required to perform its  obligations set forth in Section 2(d) in
the case of clause (iii) (including the filing of any post-effective amendment

                                        6
<PAGE>

prior to the Amendment  Effectiveness  Deadline Date), and the date on which the
aggregate  duration of Deferral Periods in any period exceeds the number of days
permitted by Section 3(i) hereof in the case of clause (iv),  being  referred to
herein as an "Event Date").  Events shall be deemed to continue until the "Event
Termination  Date,"  which  shall be the  following  dates  with  respect to the
respective types of Events: the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is
filed in the case of an Event of the type  described in clause (i); the date the
Initial Shelf Registration  Statement is declared effective under the Securities
Act in the case of an Event of the type  described in clause (ii);  the date the
Company  performs  its  obligations  set forth in Section 2(d) in the case of an
Event of the type described in clause (iii) (including,  without limitation, the
date the relevant  post-effective  amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement
is declared effective under the Securities Act); and termination of the Deferral
Period that caused the limit on the aggregate  duration of Deferral Periods in a
period set forth in Section 3(i) to be exceeded in the case of the  commencement
of an Event of the type described in clause (iv).

     Accordingly,  commencing  on (and  including)  any Event Date and ending on
(but  excluding)  the next date on which there are no Events that have  occurred
and are continuing (a "Damages Accrual  Period"),  the Company agrees to pay, as
liquidated  damages  and not as a penalty,  an amount (the  "Liquidated  Damages
Amount"),  payable  on the  Damages  Payment  Dates to  Record  Holders  of then
outstanding  Securities that are Registrable  Securities and of then outstanding
shares of Underlying  Common Stock issued upon conversion of Securities that are
Registrable  Securities,  as the case may be, accruing, for each portion of such
Damages Accrual Period beginning on and including a Damages Payment Date (or, in
respect of the first time that the  Liquidation  Damages Amount is to be paid to
Holders  on a  Damages  Payment  Date  as a  result  of  the  occurrence  of any
particular  Event, from the Event Date) and ending on but excluding the first to
occur of (A) the date on which the Damages  Accrual  Period ends or (B) the next
Damages  Payment Date, at a rate per annum equal to  one-quarter  of one percent
(0.25%) for the first ninety (90) day period from the Event Date, and thereafter
at a rate per annum equal to one-half  of one  percent  (0.5%) of the  aggregate
Applicable  Principal  Amount of such  Securities  and the aggregate  Applicable
Conversion Price of such shares of Underlying  Common Stock, as the case may be,
in each case  determined as of the Business Day  immediately  preceding the next
Damages Payment Date; provided that in the case of a Damages Accrual Period that
is in  effect  solely as a result  of an Event of the type  described  in clause
(iii) of the immediately  preceding  paragraph,  such Liquidated  Damages Amount
shall be paid only to the Holders that have delivered Notice and  Questionnaires
that caused the Company to incur the  obligations  set forth in Section 2(d) the
non-performance  of which is the basis of such Event;  provided further that any
Liquidated  Damages  Amount  accrued with respect to any  Securities  or portion
thereof called for redemption on a redemption  date or converted into Underlying
Common Stock on a conversion date prior to the Damages  Payment Date,  shall, in
any such event,  be paid instead to the Holder who submitted such  Securities or
portion thereof for redemption or conversion on the applicable redemption date

                                        7
<PAGE>

or conversion date, as the case may be, on such date (or promptly  following the
conversion date, in the case of conversion).  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  no
Liquidated Damages Amounts shall accrue as to any Registrable  Security from and
after the  earlier  of (x) the date  such  security  is no longer a  Registrable
Security and (y) expiration of the Effectiveness  Period. The rate of accrual of
the  Liquidated  Damages  Amount with respect to any period shall not exceed the
rate provided for in this paragraph  notwithstanding  the occurrence of multiple
concurrent Events. Following the cure of all Events requiring the payment by the
Company of Liquidated  Damages Amounts to the Holders of Registrable  Securities
pursuant to this Section,  the accrual of Liquidated  Damages Amounts will cease
(without in any way limiting the effect of any  subsequent  Event  requiring the
payment of  Liquidated  Damages  Amount by the  Company).  For the  avoidance of
doubt,  with respect to the payment of Liquidated  Damages  Amounts payable as a
result  of an  Event  occurring  after  the end of one or more  Damages  Accrual
Periods, such Liquidated Damages Amounts shall be calculated at a rate per annum
equal to one  quarter of one  percent  (0.25%)  for the first  ninety  (90) days
period  from such  Event  Date,  and  thereafter  at a rate per  annum  equal to
one-half of one percent  (0.5%) until the next Event  Termination  Date on which
there are no Events which have occurred and are continuing.

     The  Trustee  shall be  entitled,  on behalf of  Holders of  Securities  or
Underlying  Common Stock,  to seek any available  remedy for the  enforcement of
this  Agreement,  including for the payment of any  Liquidated  Damages  Amount.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,  the parties agree that the sole monetary damages
payable for a violation  of the terms of this  Agreement  with  respect to which
liquidated  damages are expressly  provided  shall be such  liquidated  damages.
Nothing shall preclude a Notice Holder or Holder of Registrable  Securities from
pursuing  or  obtaining  specific  performance  or other  equitable  relief with
respect to this Agreement.

     All of the  Company's  obligations  set forth in this Section 2(e) that are
outstanding  with respect to any Registrable  Security at the time such security
ceases to be a  Registrable  Security  shall survive until such time as all such
obligations   with  respect  to  such  security  have  been  satisfied  in  full
(notwithstanding termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8(k)).

     The parties hereto agree that the liquidated  damages  provided for in this
Section  2(e)  constitute  a  reasonable  estimate  of the  damages  that may be
incurred by Holders of  Registrable  Securities  by reason of the failure of the
Shelf Registration  Statement to be filed or declared effective or available for
effecting  resales of Registrable  Securities in accordance  with the provisions
hereof.

     Section 3.  Registration  Procedures.  In connection with the  registration
obligations of the Company under Section 2 hereof, the Company shall:

     (a)  Before  filing  any  Registration   Statement  or  Prospectus  or  any
amendments or supplements  thereto with the SEC, furnish to the  Representatives
copies of all such documents  proposed to be filed and use reasonable efforts to
reflect in each such  document  when so filed with the SEC such  comments as the
Representatives reasonably shall propose within

                                        8

     Representatives.

          (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such  amendments and  post-effective
     amendments to each Registration  Statement as may be necessary to keep such
     Registration  Statement  continuously effective until the expiration of the
     Effectiveness  Period;  cause the related  Prospectus to be supplemented by
     any required  Prospectus  supplement,  and as so  supplemented  to be filed
     pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar  provisions  then in force)  under the
     Securities  Act;  and comply  with the  provisions  of the  Securities  Act
     applicable to it with respect to the disposition of all securities  covered
     by  such  Registration   Statement  during  the  Effectiveness   Period  in
     accordance with the intended  methods of disposition by the sellers thereof
     set forth in such  Registration  Statement as so amended or such Prospectus
     as so supplemented.

          (c) As promptly as  practicable  give notice to the Notice Holders and
     the  Representatives  (i)  when  any  Prospectus,   Prospectus  supplement,
     Registration  Statement  or  post-effective  amendment  to  a  Registration
     Statement has been filed with the SEC and,  with respect to a  Registration
     Statement or any post-effective  amendment, when the same has been declared
     effective, (ii) of any request,  following the effectiveness of the Initial
     Shelf  Registration  Statement  under the Securities Act, by the SEC or any
     other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements
     to any  Registration  Statement  or related  Prospectus  or for  additional
     information, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state
     governmental  authority of any stop order  suspending the  effectiveness of
     any  Registration  Statement  or  the  initiation  or  threatening  of  any
     proceedings  for that  purpose,  (iv) of the  receipt by the Company of any
     notification  with  respect  to  the  suspension  of the  qualification  or
     exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable  Securities for sale
     in any  jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for
     such  purpose,  (v) of the  occurrence of (but not the nature of or details
     concerning)  a Material  Event  (provided,  however,  that no notice by the
     Company shall be required pursuant to this clause (v) in the event that the
     Company  either  promptly  files a  Prospectus  supplement  to  update  the
     Prospectus or a Form 8-K or other  appropriate  Exchange Act report that is
     incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, which, in either
     case,  contains the  requisite  information  with respect to such  Material
     Event that results in such Registration  Statement no longer containing any
     untrue  statement  of material  fact or  omitting to state a material  fact
     necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading) and (vi)
     of the  determination by the Company that a  post-effective  amendment to a
     Registration Statement will be filed with the SEC, which notice may, at the
     discretion of the Company (or as required pursuant to Section 3(i)),  state
     that it  constitutes a Deferral  Notice,  in which event the  provisions of
     Section 3(i) shall apply.

          (d) Use its  reasonable  best efforts to prevent the issuance,  and if
     issued,  to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness
     of a  Registration  Statement  or  the  lifting  of any  suspension  of the
     qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable

                                        9
<PAGE>

     Securities for sale in any  jurisdiction  in which they have been qualified
     for sale, in either case at the earliest possible moment.

          (e) If  reasonably  requested  by the  Representatives  or any  Notice
     Holder,  promptly incorporate in a Prospectus  supplement or post-effective
     amendment   to  a   Registration   Statement   such   information   as  the
     Representatives  or such  Notice  Holder  shall,  on the basis of a written
     opinion  of  nationally-recognized  counsel  experienced  in such  matters,
     determine to be required to be included  therein by applicable law and make
     any required filings of such Prospectus  supplement or such  post-effective
     amendment;  provided,  that the  Company  shall not be required to take any
     actions under this Section 3(e) that are not, in the reasonable  opinion of
     counsel for the Company, in compliance with applicable law.

          (f) Promptly furnish to each Notice Holder and the Initial Purchasers,
     upon their request and without  charge,  at least one (1) conformed copy of
     the Registration  Statement and any amendment thereto,  including financial
     statements but excluding schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to
     be incorporated  therein by reference and all exhibits (unless requested in
     writing to the Company by such Notice Holder or the Initial Purchasers,  as
     the case may be).

          (g) During the Effectiveness Period,  deliver to each Notice Holder in
     connection  with  any  sale  of  Registrable   Securities   pursuant  to  a
     Registration Statement, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or
     Prospectuses  relating  to  such  Registrable  Securities  (including  each
     preliminary  prospectus)  and any amendment or  supplement  thereto as such
     Notice  Holder may  reasonably  request;  and the Company  hereby  consents
     (except during such periods that a Deferral  Notice is outstanding  and has
     not  been  revoked)  to the use of such  Prospectus  or each  amendment  or
     supplement  thereto by each Notice Holder in  connection  with any offering
     and sale of the  Registrable  Securities  covered by such Prospectus or any
     amendment or supplement thereto in the manner set forth therein.

          (h)  Prior  to  any  public  offering  of the  Registrable  Securities
     pursuant to the Shelf  Registration  Statement,  use reasonable  efforts to
     register or qualify or cooperate with the Notice Holders in connection with
     the registration or qualification  (or exemption from such  registration or
     qualification) of such Registrable  Securities for offer and sale under the
     securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions  within the United States
     as any Notice Holder  reasonably  requests in writing (which request may be
     included in the Notice and Questionnaire);  prior to any public offering of
     the Registrable  Securities  pursuant to the Shelf Registration  Statement,
     use  its  reasonable  best  efforts  to  keep  each  such  registration  or
     qualification (or exemption  therefrom)  effective during the Effectiveness
     Period  in  connection   with  such  Notice  Holder's  offer  and  sale  of
     Registrable  Securities  pursuant to such registration or qualification (or
     exemption  therefrom) and do any and all other acts or things  necessary or
     advisable  to  enable  the  disposition  in  such   jurisdictions  of  such
     Registrable Securities in the manner set forth in the relevant Registration
     Statement and the related Prospectus; provided, that the Company will not

                                       10
<PAGE>

     be  required  to (i)  qualify  as a foreign  corporation  or as a dealer in
     securities in any jurisdiction  where it would not otherwise be required to
     qualify but for this  Agreement or (ii) take any action that would  subject
     it to  general  service  of  process  in suits or to  taxation  in any such
     jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

          (i) Upon (A) the  issuance by the SEC of a stop order  suspending  the
     effectiveness  of the Shelf  Registration  Statement or the  initiation  of
     proceedings with respect to the Shelf Registration  Statement under Section
     8(d) or 8(e) of the Securities  Act, (B) the occurrence of any event or the
     existence  of any  fact (a  "Material  Event")  as a result  of  which  any
     Registration  Statement  shall  contain any untrue  statement of a material
     fact or omit to state any material  fact  required to be stated  therein or
     necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,  or any Prospectus
     shall contain any untrue  statement of a material fact or omit to state any
     material  fact  required  to be stated  therein  or  necessary  to make the
     statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
     made, not  misleading,  or (C) the occurrence or existence of any corporate
     development that, in the discretion of the Company, makes it appropriate to
     suspend  the  availability  of the  Shelf  Registration  Statement  and the
     related  Prospectus,  (i) in the case of clause (B)  above,  subject to the
     next sentence, as promptly as practicable prepare and file a post-effective
     amendment to such  Registration  Statement  or a supplement  to the related
     Prospectus  or any document  incorporated  therein by reference or file any
     other required  document that would be  incorporated by reference into such
     Registration  Statement and Prospectus so that such Registration  Statement
     does not contain any untrue  statement of a material  fact or omit to state
     any material  fact  required to be stated  therein or necessary to make the
     statements therein not misleading, and such Prospectus does not contain any
     untrue  statement  of a material  fact or omit to state any  material  fact
     required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements  therein,
     in the  light  of  the  circumstances  under  which  they  were  made,  not
     misleading,  as thereafter  delivered to the purchasers of the  Registrable
     Securities  being sold  thereunder,  and,  in the case of a  post-effective
     amendment to a Registration  Statement,  subject to the next sentence,  use
     reasonable  efforts to cause it to be declared  effective as promptly as is
     reasonably practicable, and (ii) give notice to the Notice Holders that the
     availability of the Shelf Registration  Statement is suspended (a "Deferral
     Notice")  and,  upon receipt of any  Deferral  Notice,  each Notice  Holder
     agrees not to sell any Registrable  Securities pursuant to the Registration
     Statement until such Notice Holder's  receipt of copies of the supplemented
     or amended  Prospectus  provided  for in clause  (i) above,  or until it is
     advised in writing by the Company that the  Prospectus may be used, and has
     received  copies  of  any  additional  or  supplemental  filings  that  are
     incorporated or deemed  incorporated by reference in such  Prospectus.  The
     Company will use its reasonable  best efforts to ensure that the use of the
     Prospectus may be resumed (x) in the case of clause (A) above,  as promptly
     as is practicable,  (y) in the case of clause (B) above, as soon as, in the
     sole judgment of the Company,  public  disclosure  of such  Material  Event
     would not be prejudicial to or contrary to the interests of the Company or,
     if necessary to avoid unreasonable burden or expense, as soon as reasonably
     practicable thereafter and (z) in the case of clause (C) above, as soon as,
     in the discretion of the Company, such suspension is no longer appropriate.
     The period during which the availability of the Registration Statement and

                                       11
<PAGE>

     any Prospectus is suspended (the  "Deferral  Period"),  without the Company
     incurring any  obligation  to pay  liquidated  damages  pursuant to Section
     2(e),  shall not exceed  forty-five (45) days in any three (3) month period
     and ninety (90) days in any twelve (12) month period.

          (j)  If  reasonably   requested  in  writing  in  connection   with  a
     disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement,
     make reasonably  available for inspection during normal business hours by a
     representative  for the Notice Holders of such  Registrable  Securities and
     any  broker-dealers,  attorneys  and  accountants  retained  by such Notice
     Holders,  all relevant  financial and other  records,  pertinent  corporate
     documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and cause the
     appropriate  executive officers,  directors and designated employees of the
     Company and its subsidiaries to make available for inspection during normal
     business  hours  all  relevant  information  reasonably  requested  by such
     representative for the Notice Holders or any such broker-dealers, attorneys
     or  accountants  in connection  with such  disposition,  in each case as is
     customary for similar "due diligence" examinations; provided, however, that
     such  persons  shall  first  agree in  writing  with the  Company  that any
     information  that is reasonably and in good faith designated by the Company
     in writing as  confidential  at the time of  delivery  of such  information
     shall be kept confidential by such persons and shall be used solely for the
     purposes of exercising  rights under this Agreement,  unless (i) disclosure
     of such  information  is  required by court or  administrative  order or is
     necessary  to  respond  to  inquiries  of  regulatory   authorities,   (ii)
     disclosure of such information is required by law (including any disclosure
     requirements  pursuant to federal  securities laws), (iii) such information
     becomes  generally  available  to the  public  other  than as a result of a
     disclosure  or  failure  to  safeguard  by any  such  person  or (iv)  such
     information  becomes  available to any such person from a source other than
     the Company and such  source is not bound by a  confidentiality  agreement;
     and  provided  further,  that  the  foregoing  inspection  and  information
     gathering shall, to the greatest extent possible,  be coordinated on behalf
     of all the Notice  Holders and the other  parties  entitled  thereto by the
     counsel referred to in Section 5.

          (k) Comply with all  applicable  rules and  regulations of the SEC and
     make generally available to its  securityholders  earning statements (which
     need not be audited)  satisfying  the  provisions  of Section  11(a) of the
     Securities  Act and Rule 158  thereunder  (or any similar rule  promulgated
     under  the  Securities  Act) no  later  than 45 days  after  the end of any
     12-month  period (or 90 days after the end of any  12-month  period if such
     period is a fiscal  year)  commencing  on the first day of the first fiscal
     quarter  of  the  Company   commencing   after  the  effective  date  of  a
     Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods.

          (l) If any Registrable  Securities are not eligible for uncertificated
     delivery or a Notice Holder requires certificated delivery,  cooperate with
     each Notice Holder to  facilitate  the timely  preparation  and delivery of
     certificates   representing  Registrable  Securities  sold  pursuant  to  a
     Registration Statement, and cause such Registrable Securities to be in such

                                       12
<PAGE>

     denominations  as are  permitted by the  Indenture  and  registered in such
     names as such Notice  Holder may  request in writing at least two  Business
     Days prior to any sale of such Registrable Securities.

          (m) Provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable  Securities  covered by
     each  Registration  Statement  not later  than the  effective  date of such
     Registration  Statement and provide the Trustee for the  Securities and the
     transfer  agent  for  the  Securities  with  printed  certificates  for the
     Registrable  Securities  that are in a form  eligible  for deposit with The
     Depository Trust Company.

          (n) Use its reasonable best efforts to provide such  information as is
     required for any filings required to be made with the National  Association
     of Securities Dealers, Inc.

          (o) Upon (i) the filing of the Initial  Shelf  Registration  Statement
     and (ii) the  effectiveness  of the Initial Shelf  Registration  Statement,
     announce  the same,  in each case by  release  to  Business  Wire,  Reuters
     Economic Services or Bloomberg Business News.

          (p)  Enter  into such  customary  agreements  and take all such  other
     necessary  and lawful  actions in  connection  therewith  (including  those
     requested by the holders of a majority of the Registrable  Securities being
     sold) in order to expedite or facilitate  disposition  of such  Registrable
     Securities.

     Section 4. Holder's Obligations.  Each Holder agrees, by acquisition of the
Registrable  Securities,  that no  Holder  of  Registrable  Securities  shall be
entitled to sell any of such Registrable  Securities  pursuant to a Registration
Statement or to receive a Prospectus  relating  thereto,  unless such Holder has
furnished the Company with a Notice and  Questionnaire  as required  pursuant to
Section 2(d) hereof  (including the information  required to be included in such
Notice and  Questionnaire)  and the  information set forth in the next sentence.
Each Notice  Holder  agrees  promptly to furnish to the Company all  information
required to be disclosed in order to make the information  previously  furnished
to the Company by such Notice Holder not  misleading  and any other  information
regarding such Notice Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities
as  may  be  required  to be  disclosed  in  the  Registration  Statement  under
applicable  law or  pursuant  to SEC  comments  and  any  information  otherwise
required by the Company to comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

     Section  5.  Registration  Expenses.  The  Company  shall bear all fees and
expenses  incurred  in  connection  with the  performance  by the Company of its
obligations  under Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement  whether or not any of the
Registration  Statements  are declared  effective.  Such fees and expenses shall
include,  without  limitation,  (i) all registration and filing fees (including,
without limitation, fees and expenses (x) with respect to filings required to be
made with the  National  Association  of  Securities  Dealers,  Inc.  and (y) of
compliance  with  federal  and  state  securities  or Blue Sky laws  (including,
without limitation,  fees and disbursements of the counsel specified in the next
sentence  in  connection  with  Blue  Sky   qualifications  of  the  Registrable
Securities  under the laws of such  jurisdictions  as the  Notice  Holders  of a
majority of the Registrable Securities being sold pursuant to a Registration

                                       13
<PAGE>

Statement may designate), (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation,
expenses of printing certificates for Registrable  Securities in a form eligible
for deposit with The  Depository  Trust  Company),  (iii)  duplication  expenses
relating to copies of any Registration  Statement or Prospectus delivered to any
Holders  hereunder,  (iv) fees and  disbursements  of counsel for the Company in
connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, and (v) fees and disbursements
of the Trustee and its counsel and of the registrar  and transfer  agent for the
Common  Stock.  In  addition,  the Company  shall bear or  reimburse  the Notice
Holders  for the fees and  disbursements  of one firm of legal  counsel  for the
Holders,  which shall initially be Shearman & Sterling,  but which may, upon the
written  consent of the  Initial  Purchasers  (which  shall not be  unreasonably
withheld),  be another nationally  recognized law firm experienced in securities
law matters  designated by the Company.  In addition,  the Company shall pay the
internal expenses of the Company (including,  without  limitation,  all salaries
and expenses of officers and employees  performing legal or accounting  duties),
the expense of any annual  audit,  the fees and expenses  incurred in connection
with the listing of the  Registrable  Securities on any  securities  exchange on
which  similar  securities  of the  Company  are  then  listed  and the fees and
expenses of any person,  including  special  experts,  retained by the  Company.
Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  Notice Holders who sell Registrable  Securities
through a Registration  Statement shall pay all underwriting or broker discounts
or commissions incurred in connection with such sales of Registrable Securities.

     Section  6.  Indemnification;  Contribution.  (a)  The  Company  agrees  to
indemnify  and  hold  harmless  the  Initial   Purchasers  and  each  holder  of
Registrable  Securities  and each  person,  if any,  who  controls  the  Initial
Purchasers or any holder of Registrable  Securities within the meaning of either
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, as follows:

          (i) against  any and all loss,  liability,  claim,  damage and expense
     whatsoever,  as  incurred,  arising out of any untrue  statement or alleged
     untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement
     (or any amendment  thereto),  or the omission or alleged omission therefrom
     of a material fact  necessary in order to make the statements  therein,  in
     light of the  circumstances  under which they were made,  not misleading or
     arising  out of any untrue  statement  or  alleged  untrue  statement  of a
     material fact included in any preliminary  prospectus or the Prospectus (or
     any amendment or supplement  thereto),  or the omission or alleged omission
     therefrom  of a material  fact  necessary  in order to make the  statements
     therein,  in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
     misleading;

          (ii) against any and all loss,  liability,  claim,  damage and expense
     whatsoever,  as  incurred,  to the extent of the  aggregate  amount paid in
     settlement of any  litigation,  or any  investigation  or proceeding by any
     governmental  agency  or body,  commenced  or  threatened,  or of any claim
     whatsoever  based upon any such untrue  statement or omission,  or any such
     alleged  untrue  statement or omission,  provided  that (subject to Section
     6(d) below) any such  settlement is effected with the prior written consent
     of the Company; and

          (iii) against any and all expense  whatsoever,  as incurred (including
     the  fees  and   disbursements   of   counsel),   reasonably   incurred  in
     investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any

                                       14
<PAGE>

     investigation or proceeding by any governmental  agency or body,  commenced
     or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement
     or omission,  or any such  alleged  untrue  statement  or omission,  to the
     extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

provided,  however,  that this indemnity shall not apply to any loss, liability,
claim,  damage or expense to the extent  arising out of any untrue  statement or
omission or alleged  untrue  statement or omission  made in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information  furnished to the Company by or on behalf of
Initial  Purchasers  or  such  holder  of  Registrable  Securities  (which  also
acknowledges  the  indemnity  provisions  herein) and each  person,  if any, who
controls the Initial  Purchasers  or any such holder of  Registrable  Securities
expressly for use in the Registration  Statement (or any amendment thereto),  or
any  preliminary  prospectus or the  Prospectus  (or any amendment or supplement
thereto);  and provided,  further, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply
to any loss,  liability,  claim,  damage or expense (1) arising from an offer or
sale of Registrable Securities occurring during a Deferral Period, if a Deferral
Notice was given to such notice Holder in  accordance  with Section 8(c), or (2)
if the Holder fails to deliver at or prior to the written  confirmation of sale,
the most recent Prospectus, as amended or supplemented,  and such Prospectus, as
amended or supplemented,  corrected such untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue  statement or omission of a material  fact and the  delivery  thereof was
required by law and would have  constituted  a complete  defense to the claim in
respect of such untrue  statement  or omission or alleged  untrue  statement  or
omission.

     (b) In connection with any Shelf Registration in which a holder, including,
without  limitation,  the  Initial  Purchasers,  of  Registrable  Securities  is
participating,  in furnishing information relating to such holder of Registrable
Securities  to the  Company in writing  expressly  for use in such  Registration
Statement,  any  preliminary  prospectus,  the  Prospectus or any  amendments or
supplements thereto, the holders of such Registrable Securities agree, severally
and not jointly,  to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchasers and each
person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchasers within the meaning of either
Section  15 of the  Securities  Act or Section  20 of the  Exchange  Act and the
Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of
either such  Section,  against any and all loss,  liability,  claim,  damage and
expense described in the indemnity  contained in subsection (a) of this Section,
as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged
untrue  statements  or  omissions,  made in the  Registration  Statement (or any
amendment  thereto),  or any  preliminary  prospectus or the  Prospectus (or any
amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information  furnished  to  the  Company  by or on  behalf  of  such  holder  of
Registrable Securities (which also acknowledges the indemnity provisions herein)
and each person, if any, who controls any such holder of Registrable  Securities
expressly for use in the  Registration  Statement (or any amendment  thereto) or
such  preliminary  prospectus or the  Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement
thereto).

     Each of the Initial  Purchasers  agrees to indemnify  and hold harmless the
Company,  the holders of Registrable  Securities,  and each person,  if any, who
controls the Company or any holder of Registrable  Securities within the meaning
of either  Section 15 of the  Securities  Act or Section 20 of the  Exchange Act
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the

                                       15
<PAGE>

indemnity  contained in subsection (a) of this Section 6, as incurred,  but only
with respect to untrue statements or omissions,  or alleged untrue statements or
omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or any
preliminary  prospectus  or the  Prospectus  (or  any  amendment  or  supplement
thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written  information  furnished
to the Company by or on behalf of the Initial  Purchasers  expressly  for use in
the  Registration  Statement  (or any  amendment  thereto)  or such  preliminary
prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).

     (c) Each  indemnified  party shall give  notice as  promptly as  reasonably
practicable to each  indemnifying  party of any action  commenced  against it in
respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder,  but failure to so notify an
indemnifying  party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability
hereunder to the extent it is not materially  prejudiced as a result thereof and
in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise
than  on  account  of  this  indemnity  agreement.  An  indemnifying  party  may
participate  at its own  expense in the  defense of any such  action;  provided,
however,  that  counsel to the  indemnifying  party shall not  (except  with the
consent of the indemnified  party) also be counsel to the indemnified  party. In
no event shall the indemnifying  parties be liable for fees and expenses of more
than one counsel  (in  addition to any local  counsel)  separate  from their own
counsel  for all  indemnified  parties  in  connection  with any one  action  or
separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction  arising out of
the same general  allegations or  circumstances.  No  indemnifying  party shall,
without  the  prior  written  consent  of the  indemnified  parties,  settle  or
compromise  or  consent  to  the  entry  of any  judgment  with  respect  to any
litigation,  or any  investigation or proceeding by any  governmental  agency or
body,  commenced  or  threatened,  or any claim  whatsoever  in respect of which
indemnification  or  contribution  could be sought  under this  Section 6 hereof
(whether  or not  the  indemnified  parties  are  actual  or  potential  parties
thereto),  unless  such  settlement,  compromise  or  consent  (i)  includes  an
unconditional  release of each indemnified  party from all liability arising out
of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include
a statement as to or an admission of fault,  culpability  or a failure to act by
or on behalf of any indemnified party.

     (d)  If  at  any  time  an  indemnified   party  shall  have  requested  an
indemnifying  party to reimburse the indemnified  party for fees and expenses of
counsel,  such  indemnifying  party  agrees  that it  shall  be  liable  for any
settlement of the nature  contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii)  effected without its
written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than forty-five (45)
days after receipt by such indemnifying  party of aforesaid  request,  (ii) such
indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at
least  thirty (30) days prior to such  settlement  being  entered into and (iii)
such  indemnifying  party shall not have  reimbursed such  indemnified  party in
accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

     (e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is for any reason
unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified  party in respect
of any losses,  liabilities,  claims,  damages or expenses  referred to therein,
then each  indemnifying  party shall  contribute to the aggregate amount of such
losses,  liabilities,  claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified
party, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault  of  the  indemnifying  party  or  parties  on  the  one  hand  and of the
indemnified party on the other hand in connection with the statements or

                                       16
<PAGE>

omissions  which  resulted  in such  losses,  liabilities,  claims,  damages  or
expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

     The  relative  fault of the  Company on the one hand and the holders of the
Registrable  Securities  or the  Initial  Purchasers  on the other hand shall be
determined  by  reference  to,  among other  things,  whether any such untrue or
alleged untrue  statement of a material fact or omission or alleged  omission to
state a material fact relates to  information  supplied by the Company or by the
holder of the Registrable  Securities or the Initial Purchasers and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge,  access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission.

     The  parties  hereto  agree  that it  would  not be just and  equitable  if
contribution  pursuant  to  this  Section  6(e)  were  determined  by  pro  rata
allocation or by any other method of  allocation  which does not take account of
the  equitable  considerations  referred  to above  in this  Section  6(e).  The
aggregate amount of losses, liabilities,  claims, damages, and expenses incurred
by an  indemnified  party and  referred to above in this  Section  6(e) shall be
deemed  to  include  any legal or other  expenses  reasonably  incurred  by such
indemnified  party  in   investigating,   preparing  or  defending  against  any
litigation,  or any  investigation or proceeding by any  governmental  agency or
body,  commenced  or  threatened,  or any claim  whatsoever  based upon any such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

     Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, neither the holder of any
Registrable  Securities  nor  the  Initial  Purchasers,  shall  be  required  to
indemnify  or  contribute  any amount in excess of the amount by which the total
price at which the  Registrable  Securities  sold by such holder of  Registrable
Securities or  underwritten by the Initial  Purchasers,  as the case may be, and
distributed  to the public were offered to the public  exceeds the amount of any
damages that such holder of Registrable Securities or the Initial Purchasers has
otherwise  been  required  to pay by reason of such  untrue  or  alleged  untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission.

     No person  guilty of  fraudulent  misrepresentation  (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution  from any
person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

     For purposes of this Section  6(e),  each person,  if any, who controls the
Initial Purchasers or any holder of Registrable Securities within the meaning of
Section 15 of the  Securities  Act or Section 20 of the  Exchange Act shall have
the same rights to  contribution as the Initial  Purchasers or such holder,  and
each person,  if any, who controls the Company  within the meaning of Section 15
of the  Securities  Act or  Section 20 of the  Exchange  Act shall have the same
rights to contribution as the Company.

     Section 7. Information Requirements.  (a) The Company covenants that, if at
any time before the end of the Effectiveness  Period, the Company is not subject
to the reporting  requirements  of the Exchange Act, it will  cooperate with any
Holder of Registrable  Securities and take such further reasonable action as any
Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request in writing (including,

                                       17
<PAGE>

without  limitation,  making such reasonable  representations as any such Holder
may reasonably request),  all to the extent required from time to time to enable
such  Holder  to sell  Registrable  Securities  without  registration  under the
Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions  provided by Rule 144 and
Rule 144A under the  Securities  Act and  customarily  taken in connection  with
sales  pursuant to such  exemptions.  Upon the written  request of any Holder of
Registrable  Securities,  the  Company  shall  deliver to such  Holder a written
statement as to whether it has complied  with such filing  requirements,  unless
such a statement has been included in the Company's most recent report  required
to be filed and filed  pursuant to Section 13 or Section  15(d) of Exchange Act.
Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  nothing  in this  Section 7 shall be deemed to
require  the Company to register  any of its  securities  (other than the Common
Stock) under any section of the Exchange Act.

     Section 8. Miscellaneous.

     (a) No Conflicting Agreements. The Company is not, as of the date hereof, a
party to, nor shall it, on or after the date of this Agreement,  enter into, any
agreement with respect to its securities  that conflicts with the rights granted
to the  Holders  of  Registrable  Securities  in  this  Agreement.  The  Company
represents  and warrants that the rights  granted to the Holders of  Registrable
Securities  hereunder do not in any way conflict with the rights  granted to the
holders of the Company's securities under any other agreements.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Initial Purchasers acknowledge that the Company is obligated,
and may  obligate  itself  from  time to time in the  future,  to  register  its
securities for other holders.

     (b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the
provisions of this sentence, may not be amended,  modified or supplemented,  and
waivers or consents to departures  from the provisions  hereof may not be given,
unless the Company has obtained the written  consent of Holders of a majority of
the then outstanding Underlying Common Stock constituting Registrable Securities
(with  Holders of  Securities  deemed to be the  Holders,  for  purposes of this
Section,  of the number of  outstanding  shares of Underlying  Common Stock into
which such Securities are or would be convertible or exchangeable as of the date
on which such consent is requested).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or
consent to depart  from the  provisions  hereof  with  respect to a matter  that
relates  exclusively  to the rights of Holders of Registrable  Securities  whose
securities are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not
directly  or  indirectly  adversely  affect  the  rights  of  other  Holders  of
Registrable  Securities  may be given by Holders  of at least a majority  of the
Registrable  Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration
Statement;  provided  that the  provisions  of this sentence may not be amended,
modified,  or  supplemented  except in  accordance  with the  provisions  of the
immediately   preceding   sentence.   Each  Holder  of  Registrable   Securities
outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification,  supplement, waiver
or consent or  thereafter  shall be bound by any such  amendment,  modification,
supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 8(b), whether or
not any notice,  writing or marking  indicating  such  amendment,  modification,
supplement,  waiver or  consent  appears  on the  Registrable  Securities  or is
delivered to such Holder.

assignment,  subsequent Holders; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to
permit any assignment,  transfer or other disposition of Registrable  Securities
in  violation of the terms of the Purchase  Agreement or the  Indenture.  If any
transferee of any Holder shall acquire  Registrable  Securities,  in any manner,
whether by operation of law or otherwise,  such Registrable  Securities shall be
held  subject to all of the terms of this  Agreement,  and by taking and holding
such Registrable  Securities,  such person shall be conclusively  deemed to have

Agreement and such person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof.  The
Initial  Purchasers  (in their  capacity  as Initial  Purchasers)  shall have no
liability or  obligation to the Company with respect to any failure by any other
Holder  to  comply  with,  or any  breach by any  other  Holder  of,  any of the
obligations of such other Holder under this Agreement.

     (f)  Counterparts.  This  Agreement  may  be  executed  in  any  number  of
counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate  counterparts,  each of which
when so executed  shall be deemed to be original and all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same agreement.

ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF
LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

     (i) Severability.  If any term, provision,  covenant or restriction of this
Agreement is held to be invalid,  illegal, void or unenforceable,  the remainder
of the terms,  provisions,  covenants  and  restrictions  set forth herein shall
remain in full  force and effect and shall in no way be  affected,  impaired  or
invalidated thereby, and the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to find

Registration  Statement  for an offering  to be made on a delayed or  continuous
basis  pursuant  to  Rule  415 of the  Securities  Act  (a  "Shelf  Registration
Statement")  registering  the resale from time to time by Holders thereof of all

     (b) If the Initial Shelf  Registration  Statement or any  Subsequent  Shelf

registered  thereunder  shall  have been sold  pursuant  thereto  or shall  have
otherwise  ceased to be  Registrable  Securities),  CCI shall use its reasonable
best  efforts  to obtain  the  prompt  withdrawal  of any order  suspending  the

reasonably  expected  to  obtain  the  withdrawal  of the order  suspending  the
effectiveness  thereof,  or  file an  additional  Shelf  Registration  Statement
covering  all of  the  securities  that  as of  the  date  of  such  filing  are

Subsequent  Shelf  Registration  Statement  is filed,  CCI shall use  reasonable
efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective
as promptly as is practicable  after such filing and shall use  reasonable  best
efforts  to keep  such  Subsequent  Shelf  Registration  Statement  (or  another
Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) continuously effective until the end of
the Effectiveness Period.

     (c) CCI shall  supplement  and amend the Shelf  Registration  Statement  if
required  by  the  rules,   regulations  or   instructions   applicable  to  the
registration form used by CCI for such Shelf Registration Statement, if required
by the Securities Act or, to the extent to which CCI does not reasonably object,
as reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers or by the Trustee on behalf of
the Notice Holders.

     (d) Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that if such Holder wishes
to sell Registrable  Securities  pursuant to a Shelf Registration  Statement and
related Prospectus,  it will do so only in accordance with this Section 2(d) and
Section 3(i). Each Holder of Registrable  Securities wishing to sell Registrable
Securities  pursuant to a Shelf  Registration  Statement and related  Prospectus
agrees to deliver a Notice and  Questionnaire  to the  Company  and CCI at least
three (3)  Business  Days  prior to any  intended  distribution  of  Registrable
Securities under the Shelf Registration  Statement.  From and after the date the
Initial  Shelf  Registration  Statement  is declared  effective,  CCI shall,  as
promptly  as is  practicable  after  the  date a  Notice  and  Questionnaire  is
delivered,  and in any event within seven (7) Business  Days after such date (i)
if required by applicable law, file with the SEC a  post-effective  amendment to
the Shelf Registration  Statement or prepare and, if required by applicable law,
file a supplement to the related  Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any
document  incorporated  therein by reference or file any other required document
so that the  Holder  delivering  such  Notice  and  Questionnaire  is named as a
selling  security  holder in the Shelf  Registration  Statement  and the related
Prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver such  Prospectus
to purchasers of the  Registrable  Securities in accordance  with applicable law
and,  if CCI shall file a  post-effective  amendment  to the Shelf  Registration
Statement,  use reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective  amendment to be
declared  effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is practicable,  but
in any event by the date (the "Amendment  Effectiveness  Deadline Date") that is
sixty (60) days after the date such post-effective amendment is required by this
clause to be filed;  (ii)  provide  such Holder  copies of any  documents  filed
pursuant to Section 2(d)(i); and (iii) notify such Holder as promptly as <PAGE>

practicable   after  the   effectiveness   under  the   Securities  Act  of  any
post-effective  amendment  filed pursuant to Section  2(d)(i);  provided that if
such Notice and  Questionnaire is delivered during a Deferral Period,  CCI shall
so inform the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire and shall take the
actions set forth in clauses (i),  (ii) and (iii) above upon  expiration  of the
Deferral Period in accordance  with Section 3(i),  provided,  further,  that if,
under  applicable  law, CCI has more than one option as to the type or manner of
making  any such  filing,  it will make the  required  filing or  filings in the
manner  or of a type that is  reasonably  expected  to  result  in the  earliest
availability of the Prospectus for effecting resales of Registrable  Securities.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, CCI shall be under no
obligation to name any Holder that is not a Notice Holder as a selling  security
holder in any Registration Statement or related Prospectus;  provided,  however,
that any Holder that becomes a Notice Holder  pursuant to the provisions of this
Section  2(d)  (whether or not such  Holder was a Notice  Holder at the time the
Registration  Statement  was  declared  effective)  shall be named as a  selling
security  holder  in  the  Registration   Statement  or  related  Prospectus  in
accordance with the requirements of this Section 2(d).

     (e) The parties  hereto  agree that the Holders of  Registrable  Securities
will suffer  damages,  and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent
of such damages with precision,  if (i) the Initial Shelf Registration Statement
has not been filed on or prior to the Filing  Deadline  Date,  (ii) the  Initial
Shelf  Registration   Statement  has  not  been  declared  effective  under  the
Securities Act on or prior to the  Effectiveness  Deadline  Date,  (iii) CCI has
failed to perform its  obligations  set forth in Section 2(d) hereof  within the
time periods required therein or (iv) the aggregate duration of Deferral Periods
in any period  exceeds  the number of days  permitted  in respect of such period
pursuant to Section 3(i) hereof  (each of the events of a type  described in any
of the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) are individually referred to herein as
an  "Event,"  and the  Filing  Deadline  Date in the  case of  clause  (i),  the
Effectiveness Deadline Date in the case of clause (ii), the date by which CCI is
required to perform  its  obligations  set forth in Section  2(d) in the case of
clause (iii) (including the filing of any post-effective  amendment prior to the
Amendment  Effectiveness  Deadline  Date),  and the date on which the  aggregate
duration of Deferral  Periods in any period exceeds the number of days permitted
by Section 3(i) hereof in the case of clause (iv),  being  referred to herein as
an  "Event  Date").  Events  shall  be  deemed  to  continue  until  the  "Event
Termination  Date,"  which  shall be the  following  dates  with  respect to the
respective types of Events: the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is
filed in the case of an Event of the type  described in clause (i); the date the
Initial Shelf Registration  Statement is declared effective under the Securities
Act in the case of an Event of the type  described in clause (ii);  the date CCI
performs  its  obligations  set forth in Section 2(d) in the case of an Event of
the type described in clause (iii) (including,  without limitation, the date the
relevant  post-effective  amendment  to  the  Shelf  Registration  Statement  is
declared  effective  under the Securities  Act); and termination of the Deferral
Period that caused the limit on the aggregate  duration of Deferral Periods in a
period set forth in Section 3(i) to be exceeded in the case of the  commencement
of an Event of the type described in clause (iv).

     Accordingly,  commencing  on (and  including)  any Event Date and ending on
(but  excluding)  the next date on which there are no Events that have  occurred
and are continuing (a "Damages Accrual  Period"),  the Company agrees to pay, as
liquidated  damages  and not as a penalty,  an amount (the  "Liquidated  Damages
Amount"),  payable  on the  Damages  Payment  Dates to  Record  Holders  of then
outstanding  Securities and of then outstanding  shares of Underlying CCI Common
<PAGE>

Stock delivered upon exchange of Securities that are Registrable Securities,  as
the case may be,  accruing,  for each  portion of such  Damages  Accrual  Period
beginning on and  including a Damages  Payment Date (or, in respect of the first
time that the  Liquidation  Damages Amount is to be paid to Holders on a Damages
Payment Date as a result of the  occurrence of any  particular  Event,  from the
Event  Date) and ending on but  excluding  the first to occur of (A) the date on
which the Damages Accrual Period ends or (B) the next Damages Payment Date, at a
rate per annum equal to one-quarter of one percent  (0.25%) for the first ninety
(90) day period from the Event Date, and thereafter at a rate per annum equal to
one-half  of one  percent  (0.5%)  of the  aggregate  principal  amount  of such
Securities  and the  aggregate  Applicable  Exchange  Price  of such  shares  of
Underlying CCI Common Stock,  as the case may be, in each case  determined as of
the Business Day immediately  preceding the next Damages Payment Date;  provided
that in the case of a  Damages  Accrual  Period  that is in  effect  solely as a
result  of an Event of the type  described  in clause  (iii) of the  immediately
preceding  paragraph,  such Liquidated  Damages Amount shall be paid only to the
Holders that have delivered Notice and  Questionnaires  that caused CCI to incur
the  obligations set forth in Section 2(d) the  non-performance  of which is the
basis of such  Event;  provided  further,  that any  Liquidated  Damages  Amount
accrued with respect to any Securities or portion  thereof called for redemption
on a  redemption  date or  exchanged  into  Underlying  CCI  Common  Stock on an
exchange date prior to the Damages  Payment Date,  shall,  in any such event, be
paid instead to the Holder who submitted such  Securities or portion thereof for
redemption or exchange on the  applicable  redemption  date or exchange date, as
the case may be, on such date (or promptly  following the exchange  date, in the
case of exchange).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Liquidated Damages Amounts
shall accrue as to any  Registrable  Security  from and after the earlier of (x)
the date such security is no longer a Registrable Security and (y) expiration of
the Effectiveness  Period.  The rate of accrual of the Liquidated Damages Amount
with  respect to any  period  shall not  exceed  the rate  provided  for in this
paragraph   notwithstanding   the  occurrence  of  multiple  concurrent  Events.
Following  the cure of all  Events  requiring  the  payment  by the  Company  of
Liquidated  Damages  Amounts  to  the  Holders  of  Securities  and  Registrable
Securities  pursuant to this Section,  the accrual of Liquidated Damages Amounts
will cease  (without  in any way  limiting  the effect of any  subsequent  Event
requiring the payment of  Liquidated  Damages  Amount by the  Company).  For the
avoidance of doubt,  with respect to the payment of Liquidated  Damages  Amounts
payable as a result of an Event  occurring  after the end of one or more Damages
Accrual Periods,  such Liquidated  Damages Amounts shall be calculated at a rate
per annum equal to one quarter of one percent  (0.25%) for the first ninety (90)
days period from such Event Date,  and  thereafter  at a rate per annum equal to
one-half of one percent  (0.5%) until the next Event  Termination  Date on which
there are no Events which have occurred and are continuing.

     The  Trustee  shall be  entitled,  on behalf of  Holders of  Securities  or
Underlying CCI Common Stock, to seek any available remedy for the enforcement of
this  Agreement,  including for the payment of any  Liquidated  Damages  Amount.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,  the parties agree that the sole monetary damages
payable for a violation  of the terms of this  Agreement  with  respect to which
liquidated  damages are expressly  provided  shall be such  liquidated  damages.
Nothing shall  preclude a Notice  Holder or Holder of Securities or  Registrable
Securities  from pursuing or obtaining  specific  performance or other equitable
relief with respect to this Agreement.
<PAGE>

     All of the  Company's  obligations  set forth in this Section 2(e) that are
outstanding  with respect to any Registrable  Security at the time such security
ceases to be a  Registrable  Security  shall survive until such time as all such
obligations   with  respect  to  such  security  have  been  satisfied  in  full
(notwithstanding termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8(k)).

     The parties hereto agree that the liquidated  damages  provided for in this
Section  2(e)  constitute  a  reasonable  estimate  of the  damages  that may be
incurred by Holders of Securities  and  Registrable  Securities by reason of the
failure of the Shelf Registration Statement to be filed or declared effective or
available for effecting resales of Registrable Securities in accordance with the
provisions hereof.

     Section 3.  Registration  Procedures.  In connection with the  registration
obligations of CCI under Section 2 hereof, CCI shall:

     (a)  Before  filing  any  Registration   Statement  or  Prospectus  or  any
amendments or supplements  thereto with the SEC, furnish to the  Representatives
copies of all such documents  proposed to be filed and use reasonable efforts to
reflect in each such  document  when so filed with the SEC such  comments as the
Representatives  reasonably  shall propose within three (3) Business Days of the
delivery of such copies to the Representatives.

     (b)  Prepare  and  file  with the SEC such  amendments  and  post-effective
amendments  to each  Registration  Statement  as may be  necessary  to keep such
Registration  Statement  continuously  effective  until  the  expiration  of the
Effectiveness  Period;  cause the related  Prospectus to be  supplemented by any
required Prospectus  supplement,  and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to
Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act; and
comply with the  provisions of the  Securities Act applicable to it with respect
to the  disposition of all  securities  covered by such  Registration  Statement
during the  Effectiveness  Period in  accordance  with the  intended  methods of
disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such  Registration  Statement as
so amended or such Prospectus as so supplemented.

     (c) As promptly as  practicable  give notice to the Notice  Holders and the
Representatives  (i) when any Prospectus,  Prospectus  supplement,  Registration
Statement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement has been filed
with the SEC and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective
amendment,  when  the same has been  declared  effective,  (ii) of any  request,
following the  effectiveness of the Initial Shelf  Registration  Statement under
the  Securities  Act,  by the SEC or any  other  federal  or state  governmental
authority for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or related
Prospectus or for  additional  information,  (iii) of the issuance by the SEC or
any other federal or state  governmental  authority of any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening
of  any  proceedings  for  that  purpose,  (iv)  of  the  receipt  by CCI of any
notification  with respect to the suspension of the  qualification  or exemption
from  qualification  of  any of  the  Registrable  Securities  for  sale  in any
jurisdiction  or the  initiation  or  threatening  of any  proceeding  for  such
purpose,  (v) of the occurrence of (but not the nature of or details concerning)
<PAGE>

a Material  Event  (provided,  however,  that no notice by CCI shall be required
pursuant  to this  clause  (v) in the event  that CCI  either  promptly  files a
Prospectus  supplement  to  update  the  Prospectus  or  a  Form  8-K  or  other
appropriate  Exchange  Act report that is  incorporated  by  reference  into the
Registration   Statement,   which,  in  either  case,   contains  the  requisite
information   with  respect  to  such  Material   Event  that  results  in  such
Registration  Statement no longer  containing  any untrue  statement of material
fact or  omitting  to state a material  fact  necessary  to make the  statements
contained  therein not misleading) and (vi) of the  determination  by CCI that a
post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement will be filed with the SEC,
which notice may, at the  discretion of CCI (or as required  pursuant to Section
3(i)),  state  that it  constitutes  a  Deferral  Notice,  in  which  event  the
provisions of Section 3(i) shall apply.

     (d) Use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance, and if issued,
to  obtain  the  withdrawal  of any  order  suspending  the  effectiveness  of a
Registration Statement or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification (or
exemption from  qualification) of any of the Registrable  Securities for sale in
any  jurisdiction  in which they have been qualified for sale, in either case at
the earliest possible moment.

     (e) If reasonably  requested by the  Representatives  or any Notice Holder,
promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a
Registration  Statement such information as the  Representatives  or such Notice
Holder shall, on the basis of a written opinion of nationally-recognized counsel
experienced in such matters,  determine to be required to be included therein by
applicable law and make any required  filings of such  Prospectus  supplement or
such post-effective  amendment;  provided that CCI shall not be required to take
any actions under this Section 3(e) that are not, in the  reasonable  opinion of
counsel for CCI, in compliance with applicable law.

     (f) Promptly furnish to each Notice Holder and the Initial Purchasers, upon
their  request  and  without  charge,  at least  one (1)  conformed  copy of the
Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, including financial statements
but excluding schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
therein by  reference  and all exhibits  (unless  requested in writing to CCI by
such Notice Holder or the Initial Purchasers, as the case may be).

     (g) During the  Effectiveness  Period,  deliver  to each  Notice  Holder in
connection  with any sale of Registrable  Securities  pursuant to a Registration
Statement,  without  charge,  as many copies of the  Prospectus or  Prospectuses
relating to such Registrable Securities (including each preliminary  prospectus)
and any  amendment or supplement  thereto as such Notice  Holder may  reasonably
request;  and CCI hereby  consents  (except  during such periods that a Deferral
Notice is outstanding and has not been revoked) to the use of such Prospectus or
each  amendment or supplement  thereto by each Notice Holder in connection  with
any offering and sale of the Registrable  Securities  covered by such Prospectus
or any amendment or supplement thereto in the manner set forth therein.

     (h) Prior to any public offering of the Registrable  Securities pursuant to
the Shelf Registration Statement,  use reasonable efforts to register or qualify
or cooperate  with the Notice  Holders in connection  with the  registration  or
qualification  (or exemption from such  registration or  qualification)  of such
<PAGE>

Registrable  Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws
of such  jurisdictions  within the United States as any Notice Holder reasonably
requests  in  writing   (which  request  may  be  included  in  the  Notice  and
Questionnaire);  prior to any  public  offering  of the  Registrable  Securities
pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, use its reasonable best efforts to
keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption  therefrom) effective
during the  Effectiveness  Period in connection  with such Notice Holder's offer
and  sale  of  Registrable   Securities   pursuant  to  such   registration   or
qualification  (or exemption  therefrom) and do any and all other acts or things
necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such  jurisdictions  of such
Registrable  Securities  in the  manner set forth in the  relevant  Registration
Statement and the related Prospectus;  provided that CCI will not be required to
(i)  qualify  as a  foreign  corporation  or as a dealer  in  securities  in any
jurisdiction  where it would not  otherwise  be required to qualify but for this
Agreement  or (ii) take any action that would  subject it to general  service of
process in suits or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
subject.

     (i)  Upon  (A) the  issuance  by the  SEC of a stop  order  suspending  the
effectiveness  of  the  Shelf  Registration   Statement  or  the  initiation  of
proceedings with respect to the Shelf Registration  Statement under Section 8(d)
or 8(e) of the Securities  Act, (B) the occurrence of any event or the existence
of any fact (a "Material Event") as a result of which any Registration Statement
shall  contain  any untrue  statement  of a  material  fact or omit to state any
material fact required to be stated  therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading,  or any Prospectus shall contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements  therein,  in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not  misleading,  or (C) the occurrence or existence
of  any  corporate  development  that,  in  the  discretion  of  CCI,  makes  it
appropriate to suspend the availability of the Shelf Registration  Statement and
the related Prospectus, (i) in the case of clause (B) above, subject to the next
sentence, as promptly as practicable prepare and file a post-effective amendment
to such Registration  Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any
document  incorporated  therein by reference or file any other required document
that would be  incorporated  by reference into such  Registration  Statement and
Prospectus  so that such  Registration  Statement  does not  contain  any untrue
statement of a material  fact or omit to state any material  fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements  therein not misleading,  and
such Prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state any material  fact  required to be stated  therein or necessary to make
the statements  therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made,  not  misleading,  as  thereafter  delivered  to  the  purchasers  of  the
Registrable   Securities  being  sold   thereunder,   and,  in  the  case  of  a
post-effective  amendment  to a  Registration  Statement,  subject  to the  next
sentence,  use  reasonable  efforts  to cause  it to be  declared  effective  as
promptly  as is  reasonably  practicable,  and (ii) give  notice  to the  Notice
Holders that the availability of the Shelf  Registration  Statement is suspended
(a "Deferral  Notice")  and,  upon receipt of any Deferral  Notice,  each Notice
Holder  agrees  not  to  sell  any  Registrable   Securities   pursuant  to  the
Registration  Statement  until  such  Notice  Holder's  receipt of copies of the
supplemented or amended Prospectus provided for in clause (i) above, or until it
is advised in writing by CCI that the  Prospectus  may be used, and has received
copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed
<PAGE> incorporated by reference in such Prospectus. CCI will use its reasonable
best efforts to ensure that the use of the  Prospectus may be resumed (x) in the
case of clause (A) above,  as  promptly  as is  practicable,  (y) in the case of
clause (B) above, as soon as, in the sole judgment of CCI, public  disclosure of
such Material  Event would not be prejudicial to or contrary to the interests of
CCI or,  if  necessary  to avoid  unreasonable  burden  or  expense,  as soon as
reasonably  practicable  thereafter and (z) in the case of clause (C) above,  as
soon as, in the discretion of CCI, such suspension is no longer appropriate. The
period  during which the  availability  of the  Registration  Statement  and any
Prospectus is suspended (the "Deferral  Period"),  without the Company incurring
any obligation to pay  liquidated  damages  pursuant to Section 2(e),  shall not
exceed  forty-five  (45) days in any three (3) month period and ninety (90) days
in any twelve (12) month period.

     (j) If reasonably  requested in writing in connection with a disposition of
Registrable  Securities  pursuant to a Registration  Statement,  make reasonably
available for inspection  during normal business hours by a  representative  for
the  Notice  Holders  of such  Registrable  Securities  and any  broker-dealers,
attorneys  and  accountants  retained  by  such  Notice  Holders,  all  relevant
financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of CCI
and its subsidiaries,  and cause the appropriate  executive officers,  directors
and  designated  employees of CCI and its  subsidiaries  to make  available  for
inspection  during normal  business  hours all relevant  information  reasonably
requested  by  such   representative   for  the  Notice   Holders  or  any  such
broker-dealers, attorneys or accountants in connection with such disposition, in
each case as is customary for similar "due  diligence"  examinations;  provided,
however,  that such  persons  shall  first  agree in  writing  with CCI that any
information that is reasonably and in good faith designated by CCI in writing as
confidential  at the  time  of  delivery  of  such  information  shall  be  kept
confidential  by such  persons  and shall be used  solely  for the  purposes  of
exercising   rights  under  this  Agreement,   unless  (i)  disclosure  of  such
information  is required by court or  administrative  order or is  necessary  to
respond  to  inquiries  of  regulatory  authorities,  (ii)  disclosure  of  such
information is required by law (including any disclosure  requirements  pursuant
to federal securities law), (iii) such information  becomes generally  available
to the public other than as a result of a disclosure  or failure to safeguard by
any such person or (iv) such  information  becomes  available to any such person
from a source  other than CCI and such source is not bound by a  confidentiality
agreement;  and provided  further that the foregoing  inspection and information
gathering  shall, to the greatest extent  possible,  be coordinated on behalf of
all the Notice  Holders and the other  parties  entitled  thereto by the counsel
referred to in Section 5.

     (k) Comply with all  applicable  rules and  regulations of the SEC and make
generally available to its securityholders earning statements (which need not be
audited)  satisfying  the  provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and
Rule 158 thereunder (or any similar rule  promulgated  under the Securities Act)
no later than 45 days after the end of any 12-month period (or 90 days after the
end of any 12-month  period if such period is a fiscal year)  commencing  on the
first day of the first fiscal quarter of CCI commencing after the effective date
of a Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods.
<PAGE>

     (l) If any  Registrable  Securities  are not  eligible  for  uncertificated
delivery or a Notice Holder requires certificated delivery,  cooperate with each
Notice Holder to facilitate the timely  preparation and delivery of certificates
representing  Registrable Securities sold pursuant to a Registration  Statement,
and  cause  such  Registrable  Securities  to be in  such  denominations  as are
permitted by the  Indenture  and  registered in such names as such Notice Holder
may  request  in writing  at least two  Business  Days prior to any sale of such
Registrable Securities.

     (m) Provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable  Securities  covered by each
Registration  Statement not later than the effective  date of such  Registration
Statement  and provide the transfer  agent for the CCI Common Stock with printed
certificates  for the  Registrable  Securities  that are in a form  eligible for
deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

     (n) Use its  reasonable  best  efforts to provide  such  information  as is
required for any filings  required to be made with the National  Association  of
Securities Dealers, Inc.

     (o) Upon (i) the filing of the Initial  Shelf  Registration  Statement  and
(ii) the effectiveness of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement, announce the
same, in each case by release to Business  Wire,  Reuters  Economic  Services or
Bloomberg Business News.

     (p) Enter into such customary  agreements and take all such other necessary
and lawful actions in connection  therewith  (including  those  requested by the
holders of a majority  of the  Registrable  Securities  being  sold) in order to
expedite or facilitate disposition of such Registrable Securities.

     Section 4. Holder's Obligations.  Each Holder agrees, by acquisition of the
Registrable  Securities,  that no  Holder  of  Registrable  Securities  shall be
entitled to sell any of such Registrable  Securities  pursuant to a Registration
Statement or to receive a Prospectus  relating  thereto,  unless such Holder has
furnished  the  Company  and CCI with a Notice  and  Questionnaire  as  required
pursuant  to Section  2(d)  hereof  (including  the  information  required to be
included in such Notice and  Questionnaire) and the information set forth in the
next sentence.  Each Notice Holder agrees promptly to furnish to the Company and
CCI all  information  required to be disclosed in order to make the  information
previously furnished to the Company and CCI by such Notice Holder not misleading
and any other  information  regarding such Notice Holder and the distribution of
such  Registrable  Securities  as  may  be  required  to  be  disclosed  in  the
Registration  Statement under applicable law or pursuant to SEC comments and any
information  otherwise  required  by  the  Company  or CCI to  comply  with  all
applicable laws and regulations.

     Section  5.  Registration  Expenses.  The  Company  shall bear all fees and
expenses  incurred in connection  with the performance by the Company and CCI of
their respective obligations under Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement whether or
not any of the  Registration  Statements are declared  effective.  Such fees and
expenses shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees
(including,  without  limitation,  fees and expenses (x) with respect to filings
required to be made with the National  Association of Securities  Dealers,  Inc.
and (y) of  compliance  with  federal  and  state  securities  or Blue  Sky laws
(including,  without limitation, fees and disbursements of the counsel specified
<PAGE>

in  the  next  sentence  in  connection  with  Blue  Sky  qualifications  of the
Registrable  Securities  under  the  laws of such  jurisdictions  as the  Notice
Holders of a majority of the  Registrable  Securities  being sold  pursuant to a
Registration  Statement  may  designate),  (ii)  printing  expenses  (including,
without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities
in a form  eligible  for  deposit  with The  Depository  Trust  Company),  (iii)
duplication  expenses  relating  to  copies  of any  Registration  Statement  or
Prospectus  delivered to any Holders  hereunder,  (iv) fees and disbursements of
counsel for CCI in connection  with the Shelf  Registration  Statement,  and (v)
fees and  disbursements  of the registrar and transfer  agent for the CCI Common
Stock.  In addition,  the Company shall bear or reimburse the Notice Holders for
the fees and  disbursements of one firm of legal counsel for the Holders,  which
shall initially be Shearman & Sterling,  but which may, upon the written consent
of the Initial Purchasers (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), be another
nationally  recognized law firm experienced in securities law matters designated
by the  Company.  In  addition,  the  Company  shall  pay the fees and  expenses
incurred in  connection  with the listing of the  Registrable  Securities on any
securities  exchange on which similar  securities of CCI are then listed and the
fees and expenses of any person,  including  special  experts,  retained by CCI.
Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  Notice Holders who sell Registrable  Securities
through a Registration  Statement shall pay all underwriting or broker discounts
or commissions incurred in connection with such sales of Registrable Securities.

     Section 6. Indemnification;  Contribution. (a) The Company and CCI, jointly
and severally,  agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial  Purchasers and
each holder of Registrable  Securities and each person, if any, who controls the
Initial Purchasers or any holder of Registrable Securities within the meaning of
either  Section 15 of the  Securities  Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, as
follows:

     (i)  against  any  and all  loss,  liability,  claim,  damage  and  expense
     whatsoever,  as  incurred,  arising out of any untrue  statement or alleged
     untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement
     (or any amendment  thereto),  or the omission or alleged omission therefrom
     of a material fact  necessary in order to make the statements  therein,  in
     light of the  circumstances  under which they were made,  not misleading or
     arising  out of any untrue  statement  or  alleged  untrue  statement  of a
     material fact included in any preliminary  prospectus or the Prospectus (or
     any amendment or supplement  thereto),  or the omission or alleged omission
     therefrom  of a material  fact  necessary  in order to make the  statements
     therein,  in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
     misleading;

     (ii)  against  any and all  loss,  liability,  claim,  damage  and  expense
     whatsoever,  as  incurred,  to the extent of the  aggregate  amount paid in
     settlement of any  litigation,  or any  investigation  or proceeding by any
     governmental  agency  or body,  commenced  or  threatened,  or of any claim
     whatsoever  based upon any such untrue  statement or omission,  or any such
     alleged  untrue  statement or omission,  provided  that (subject to Section
     6(d) below) any such  settlement is effected with the prior written consent
     of the Company and CCI; and

     (iii) against any and all expense  whatsoever,  as incurred  (including the
     fees and disbursements of counsel),  reasonably  incurred in investigating,
     preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or
<PAGE>

     proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened,  or
     any claim whatsoever  based upon any such untrue statement or omission,  or
     any such alleged untrue statement or omission,  to the extent that any such
     expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

provided,  however,  that this indemnity shall not apply to any loss, liability,
claim,  damage or expense to the extent  arising out of any untrue  statement or
omission or alleged  untrue  statement or omission  made in reliance upon and in
conformity  with  written  information  furnished to the Company or CCI by or on
behalf of Initial  Purchasers or such holder of  Registrable  Securities  (which
also acknowledges the indemnity  provisions herein) and each person, if any, who
controls the Initial  Purchasers  or any such holder of  Registrable  Securities
expressly for use in the Registration  Statement (or any amendment thereto),  or
any  preliminary  prospectus or the  Prospectus  (or any amendment or supplement
thereto);  and provided,  further, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply
to any loss,  liability,  claim,  damage or expense (1) arising from an offer or
sale of Registrable Securities occurring during a Deferral Period, if a Deferral
Notice was given to such notice Holder in  accordance  with Section 8(c), or (2)
if the Holder fails to deliver at or prior to the written  confirmation of sale,
the most recent Prospectus, as amended or supplemented,  and such Prospectus, as
amended or supplemented,  corrected such untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue  statement or omission of a material  fact and the  delivery  thereof was
required by law and would have  constituted  a complete  defense to the claim in
respect of such untrue  statement  or omission or alleged  untrue  statement  or
omission.

     (b) In connection with any Shelf Registration in which a holder, including,
without  limitation,  the  Initial  Purchasers,  of  Registrable  Securities  is
participating,  in furnishing information relating to such holder of Registrable
Securities  to  the  Company  or CCI  in  writing  expressly  for  use  in  such
Registration  Statement,  any  preliminary  prospectus,  the  Prospectus  or any
amendments or supplements  thereto,  the holders of such Registrable  Securities
agree,  severally  and not jointly,  to indemnify  and hold harmless the Initial
Purchasers and each person,  if any, who controls the Initial  Purchasers within
the  meaning  of either  Section 15 of the  Securities  Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act and the Company and CCI, and each person,  if any, who controls the
Company or CCI within the  meaning of either such  Section,  against any and all
loss, liability,  claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained
in subsection (a) of this Section, as incurred,  but only with respect to untrue
statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions,  made in the
Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or any preliminary prospectus
or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement  thereto) in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information  furnished to the Company or CCI by or on
behalf of such holder of Registrable  Securities  (which also  acknowledges  the
indemnity  provisions  herein) and each  person,  if any,  who controls any such
holder of Registrable Securities expressly for use in the Registration Statement
(or any amendment thereto) or such preliminary  prospectus or the Prospectus (or
any amendment or supplement thereto).

     Each of the Initial  Purchasers  agrees to indemnify  and hold harmless the
Company,  CCI, the holders of Registrable  Securities,  and each person, if any,
who controls the Company,  CCI, or any holder of Registrable  Securities  within
the  meaning  of either  Section 15 of the  Securities  Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange  Act against  any and all loss,  liability,  claim,  damage and expense
described in the  indemnity  contained in  subsection  (a) of this Section 6, as
<PAGE>

incurred,  but only with respect to untrue  statements or omissions,  or alleged
untrue  statements  or  omissions,  made in the  Registration  Statement (or any
amendment  thereto),  or any  preliminary  prospectus or the  Prospectus (or any
amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to CCI by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers expressly
for  use in the  Registration  Statement  (or  any  amendment  thereto)  or such
preliminary  prospectus  or the  Prospectus  (or  any  amendment  or  supplement
thereto).

     CCI agrees to indemnify and hold  harmless the Company  against any and all
loss, liability,  claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained
in  subsection  (a) of this  Section  6, as  incurred  with  respect  to  untrue
statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions,  made in the
Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or any preliminary prospectus
or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).

     The Company  agrees to indemnify  and hold harmless CCI against any and all
loss, liability,  claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained
in  subsection  (a) of this  Section 6, as  incurred,  but only with  respect to
untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions,  made
in the  Registration  Statement (or any amendment  thereto),  or any preliminary
prospectus  or the  Prospectus  (or any  amendment  or  supplement  thereto)  in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information  furnished to CCI by or
on behalf of the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any
amendment  thereto) or such  preliminary  prospectus or the  Prospectus  (or any
amendment or supplement thereto).

     (c) Each  indemnified  party shall give  notice as  promptly as  reasonably
practicable to each  indemnifying  party of any action  commenced  against it in
respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder,  but failure to so notify an
indemnifying  party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability
hereunder to the extent it is not materially  prejudiced as a result thereof and
in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise
than  on  account  of  this  indemnity  agreement.  An  indemnifying  party  may
participate  at its own  expense in the  defense of any such  action;  provided,
however,  that  counsel to the  indemnifying  party shall not  (except  with the
consent of the indemnified  party) also be counsel to the indemnified  party. In
no event shall the indemnifying  parties be liable for fees and expenses of more
than one counsel  (in  addition to any local  counsel)  separate  from their own
counsel  for all  indemnified  parties  in  connection  with any one  action  or
separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction  arising out of
the same general  allegations or  circumstances.  No  indemnifying  party shall,
without  the  prior  written  consent  of the  indemnified  parties,  settle  or
compromise  or  consent  to  the  entry  of any  judgment  with  respect  to any
litigation,  or any  investigation or proceeding by any  governmental  agency or
body,  commenced  or  threatened,  or any claim  whatsoever  in respect of which
indemnification  or  contribution  could be sought  under this  Section 6 hereof
(whether  or not  the  indemnified  parties  are  actual  or  potential  parties
thereto),  unless  such  settlement,  compromise  or  consent  (i)  includes  an
unconditional  release of each indemnified  party from all liability arising out
of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include
a statement as to or an admission of fault,  culpability  or a failure to act by
or on behalf of any indemnified party.

     (d)  If  at  any  time  an  indemnified   party  shall  have  requested  an
indemnifying  party to reimburse the indemnified  party for fees and expenses of
counsel,  such  indemnifying  party  agrees  that it  shall  be  liable  for any
settlement of the nature  contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii)  effected without its
<PAGE>

written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than forty five (45)
days after receipt by such indemnifying  party of aforesaid  request,  (ii) such
indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at
least  thirty (30) days prior to such  settlement  being  entered into and (iii)
such  indemnifying  party shall not have  reimbursed such  indemnified  party in
accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

     (e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is for any reason
unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified  party in respect
of any losses,  liabilities,  claims,  damages or expenses  referred to therein,
then each  indemnifying  party shall  contribute to the aggregate amount of such
losses,  liabilities,  claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified
party, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault  of  the  indemnifying  party  or  parties  on  the  one  hand  and of the
indemnified  party  on the  other  hand in  connection  with the  statements  or
omissions  which  resulted  in such  losses,  liabilities,  claims,  damages  or
expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

     The  relative  fault of the Company and CCI on the one hand and the holders
of the Registrable  Securities or the Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall
be determined  by reference  to, among other things,  whether any such untrue or
alleged untrue  statement of a material fact or omission or alleged  omission to
state a material fact relates to  information  supplied by the Company or CCI or
by the holder of the  Registrable  Securities or the Initial  Purchasers and the
parties'  relative intent,  knowledge,  access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission.

     The  parties  hereto  agree  that it  would  not be just and  equitable  if
contribution  pursuant  to  this  Section  6(e)  were  determined  by  pro  rata
allocation or by any other method of  allocation  which does not take account of
the  equitable  considerations  referred  to above  in this  Section  6(e).  The
aggregate amount of losses, liabilities,  claims, damages, and expenses incurred
by an  indemnified  party and  referred to above in this  Section  6(e) shall be
deemed  to  include  any legal or other  expenses  reasonably  incurred  by such
indemnified  party  in   investigating,   preparing  or  defending  against  any
litigation,  or any  investigation or proceeding by any  governmental  agency or
body,  commenced  or  threatened,  or any claim  whatsoever  based upon any such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

     Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, neither the holder of any
Registrable  Securities  nor  the  Initial  Purchasers,  shall  be  required  to
indemnify  or  contribute  any amount in excess of the amount by which the total
price at which the  Registrable  Securities  sold by such holder of  Registrable
Securities  or  purchased  by the  Initial  Purchasers,  as the case may be, and
distributed  to the public were offered to the public  exceeds the amount of any
damages that such holder of Registrable Securities or the Initial Purchasers has
otherwise  been  required  to pay by reason of such  untrue  or  alleged  untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission.

     No person  guilty of  fraudulent  misrepresentation  (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution  from any
person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
<PAGE>

     For purposes of this Section  6(e),  each person,  if any, who controls the
Initial Purchasers or any holder of Registrable Securities within the meaning of
Section 15 of the  Securities  Act or Section 20 of the  Exchange Act shall have
the same rights to  contribution as the Initial  Purchasers or such holder,  and
each  person,  if any,  who  controls  the  Company or CCI within the meaning of
Section 15 of the  Securities  Act or Section 20 of the  Exchange Act shall have
the same rights to contribution as the Company or CCI, as the case may be.

     Section 7. Information Requirements. (a) CCI covenants that, if at any time
before the end of the Effectiveness  Period, CCI is not subject to the reporting
requirements  of the  Exchange  Act,  it  will  cooperate  with  any  Holder  of
Registrable  Securities and take such further reasonable action as any Holder of
Registrable  Securities may reasonably  request in writing  (including,  without
limitation,  making  such  reasonable  representations  as any such  Holder  may
reasonably request), all to the extent required from time to time to enable such
Holder to sell Registrable  Securities without registration under the Securities
Act within the limitation of the  exemptions  provided by Rule 144 and Rule 144A
under the Securities Act and customarily taken in connection with sales pursuant
to such  exemptions.  Upon the  written  request  of any  Holder of  Registrable
Securities,  CCI shall deliver to such Holder a written  statement as to whether
it has complied with such filing requirements,  unless such a statement has been
included in CCI's most recent report  required to be filed and filed pursuant to
Section 13 or Section  15(d) of Exchange  Act.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,
nothing in this  Section 7 shall be deemed to require CCI to register any of its
securities  (other than the CCI Common  Stock) under any section of the Exchange
Act.

     Section 8. Miscellaneous.

     (a) No  Conflicting  Agreements.  Neither the Company nor CCI is, as of the
date  hereof,  a party to, nor shall  either the Company or CCI, on or after the
date of this Agreement, enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities
that conflicts with the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable  Securities
in this Agreement.  Each of the Company and CCI represents and warrants that the
rights granted to the Holders of Registrable  Securities hereunder do not in any
way conflict  with the rights  granted to the holders of the  Company's or CCI's
securities  under any  other  agreements.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  the
Initial  Purchasers  acknowledge that CCI is obligated,  and may obligate itself
from time to time in the future, to register its securities for other holders.

     (b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the
provisions of this sentence, may not be amended,  modified or supplemented,  and
waivers or consents to departures  from the provisions  hereof may not be given,
unless the Company  and CCI have  obtained  the written  consent of Holders of a
majority of the then outstanding Underlying CCI Common Stock constituting <PAGE>

Registrable Securities (with Holders of Securities deemed to be the Holders, for
purposes of this Section,  of the number of outstanding shares of Underlying CCI
Common Stock into which such  Securities are or would be  exchangeable as of the
date on which such  consent is  requested).  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  a
waiver or consent to depart from the provisions  hereof with respect to a matter
that  relates  exclusively  to the rights of Holders of  Registrable  Securities
whose  securities are being sold pursuant to a  Registration  Statement and that
does not directly or indirectly  adversely affect the rights of other Holders of
Registrable  Securities  may be given by Holders  of at least a majority  of the
Registrable  Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration
Statement;  provided  that the  provisions  of this sentence may not be amended,
modified,  or  supplemented  except in  accordance  with the  provisions  of the
immediately   preceding   sentence.   Each  Holder  of  Registrable   Securities
outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification,  supplement, waiver
or consent or  thereafter  shall be bound by any such  amendment,  modification,
supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 8(b), whether or
not any notice,  writing or marking  indicating  such  amendment,  modification,
supplement,  waiver or  consent  appears  on the  Registrable  Securities  or is
delivered to such Holder.

     (c) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted
hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery,  by telecopier,  by courier
guaranteeing   overnight   delivery  or  by  first-class  mail,  return  receipt
requested,  and shall be deemed given (i) when made,  if made by hand  delivery,

     (d)  Approval of Holders.  Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a
specified  percentage  of  Registrable  Securities  is required  hereunder,  the
Registrable  Securities  held by the Company or its  affiliates (as such term is
defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (other than the Initial Purchasers
or subsequent  Holders of Registrable  Securities if such subsequent Holders are
deemed  to be such  affiliates  solely  by  reason  of  their  holdings  of such
Registrable Securities) shall not be counted in determining whether such consent
or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

     (e) Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement  shall insure to the benefit of
and be binding  upon the  successors,  assigns  and  transferees  of each of the
parties,  including,  without  limitation  and  without  the need for an express
assignment,  subsequent Holders; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to
permit any assignment,  transfer or other disposition of Registrable  Securities
in  violation of the terms of the Purchase  Agreement or the  Indenture.  If any
<PAGE>

transferee of any Holder shall acquire Securities or Registrable Securities,  in
any  manner,  whether by  operation  of law or  otherwise,  such  Securities  or
Registrable  Securities  shall  be  held  subject  to all of the  terms  of this
Agreement,  and by taking and holding such Securities or Registrable Securities,
such person  shall be  conclusively  deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to
perform all of the terms and  provisions of this Agreement and such person shall
be entitled to receive the benefits  hereof.  The Initial  Purchasers  (in their
capacity as Initial  Purchasers)  shall have no liability or  obligation  to the
Company with  respect to any failure by any other Holder to comply with,  or any
breach by any other Holder of, any of the obligations of such other Holder under
this Agreement.

     (f)  Counterparts.  This  Agreement  may  be  executed  in  any  number  of
counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate  counterparts,  each of which
when so executed  shall be deemed to be original and all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same agreement.

     (g)  Headings.  The  headings  in this  Agreement  are for  convenience  of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

     (h)  Governing  Law. THIS  AGREEMENT  SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF
LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

     (i) Severability.  If any term, provision,  covenant or restriction of this
Agreement is held to be invalid,  illegal, void or unenforceable,  the remainder
of the terms,  provisions,  covenants  and  restrictions  set forth herein shall
remain in full  force and effect and shall in no way be  affected,  impaired  or
invalidated thereby, and the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to find
and employ an alternative  means to achieve the same or  substantially  the same
result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction, it
being  intended  that all of the rights and  privileges  of the parties shall be
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     (j) Entire Agreement.  This Agreement is intended by the parties as a final
expression  of their  agreement  and is intended to be a complete and  exclusive
statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of
the subject matter contained  herein and the registration  rights granted by the
Company and CCI with respect to the Securities and the  Registrable  Securities.
Except  as  provided  in the  Purchase  Agreement,  there  are no  restrictions,
promises, warranties or undertakings,  other than those set forth or referred to
herein,  with respect to the registration  rights granted by the Company and CCI
with respect to the Securities and the  Registrable  Securities.  This Agreement
supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings  among the parties with respect
to such registration rights.

     (k)  Termination.  This  Agreement  and  the  obligations  of  the  parties
hereunder  shall  terminate  upon the  expiration of the  Effectiveness  Period,
except for any  liabilities or  obligations  under Sections 4, 5 or 6 hereof and
the  obligations  to make payments of and provide for  liquidated  damages under
