(1) if since the beginning of such period such Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof has Incurred any Indebtedness that remains outstanding on such date of determination or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense of such Parent for such period shall be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period (except that in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility outstanding on the date of such calculation shall be computed based on (A) the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such four fiscal quarters or such shorter period for which such facility was

outstanding or (B) if such facility was created after the end of such four fiscal quarters, the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of such facility to the date of such calculation),

(2) if since the beginning of such period such Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof has repaid, repurchased, redeemed, defeased or otherwise acquired, retired or discharged any Indebtedness (each, a "Discharge") or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio involves a Discharge of Indebtedness (in each case other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid), Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense of such Parent for such period shall be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Discharge of such Indebtedness, including with the proceeds of such new Indebtedness, as if such Discharge had occurred on the first day of such period,

(3) if since the beginning of such period such Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof shall have disposed of any company, any business or any group of assets constituting an operating unit of a business (any such disposition, a "Sale"), the Consolidated EBITDA of such Parent for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) attributable to the assets that are the subject of such Sale for such period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) attributable thereto for such period and Consolidated Interest Expense of such Parent for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to (A) the Consolidated Interest Expense attributable to any Indebtedness of such Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof repaid, repurchased, redeemed, defeased or otherwise acquired, retired or discharged with respect to such Parent and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such Sale for such period (including but not limited to through the assumption of such Indebtedness by another Person) plus (B) if the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent is sold, the Consolidated Interest Expense of such Parent for such period attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such Parent and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such Sale,

(5) if since the beginning of such period any Person became a Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent or was merged or consolidated with or into such Parent, as the case may be, or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof, and since the beginning of such period such Person shall have Discharged any Indebtedness or made any Sale or Purchase that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (2), (3) or (4) above if made by such Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof during such period, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense of such Parent for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Discharge, Sale or Purchase occurred on the first day of such period.

calculations in respect thereof may include anticipated cost savings relating to any such Sale, Purchase or other transaction that the Borrower reasonably believes in good faith could have been achieved during the relevant four quarter period as a result of such Sale, Purchase or other transaction (provided that both (i) such cost savings were identified and quantified in an Officer's Certificate delivered to the Lenders at the time of the consummation of such transaction (or, if later, the Issue Date) and (ii) with respect to each such transaction completed prior to the 90^th day preceding the relevant date of determination, actions were commenced or initiated by the Borrower within 90 days of the consummation of such transaction to effect such cost savings identified in such Officer's Certificate and with respect to any other transaction, such Officer's Certificate sets forth the specific steps to be taken within the 90 days after the consummation of such transaction to accomplish such cost savings). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness). If any Indebtedness bears, at the option of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary, a rate of interest based on a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate or other fixed or floating rate, and such Indebtedness is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be calculated by applying such optional rate as the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary may designate. If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect was Incurred under a revolving credit facility, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP.

"Consolidated EBITDA" means, with respect to the Borrower or NAVL, for any period, the Consolidated Net Income of such Parent for such period, plus the following to the extent deducted in calculating such Consolidated Net Income: (i) provision for all taxes (whether or not paid, estimated or accrued) based on income, profits or capital, (ii) Consolidated Interest Expense of such Parent, (iii) depreciation, amortization (including but not limited to amortization of goodwill and intangibles and amortization and write-off of financing costs) and all other non-cash charges or non-cash losses, (iv) any expenses or charges related to any Equity Offering, Investment or Indebtedness permitted by this Agreement (whether or not consummated or incurred) and (v) the amount of any minority interest expense. To the extent Consolidated EBITDA of such Parent would otherwise include the amount of any Receivables Fees excluded from Consolidated Interest Expense of such Parent pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition of Consolidated Interest Expense, Consolidated EBITDA of such Parent shall be reduced by such amount.

"Consolidated Interest Expense" means, with respect to the Borrower or NAVL, for any period, (i) the total interest expense of such Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent deducted in calculating Consolidated Net Income of such Parent, net of any interest income of the such Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, including without limitation any such interest expense consisting of (a) interest expense attributable to Capitalized Lease Obligations, (b) amortization of debt discount, (c) interest in respect of Indebtedness of any other Person that has been Guaranteed by such Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent (other than Indebtedness Guaranteed under any Management Guarantee or Agent Guarantee, except to the extent the interest thereon is actually being paid by such Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof), (d) non-cash interest expense, (e) the interest portion of any deferred payment obligation, and (f) commissions, discounts and other fees and charges owed with respect to letters of credit and bankers' acceptance financing, plus (ii) dividends paid in cash in respect of Disqualified Stock of such Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof or in respect of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent and minus (iii) to the extent otherwise included in such interest expense referred to in clause (i) above, Receivables Fees and amortization or write-off of financing costs, in each case under clauses (i) through (iii) as determined on a Consolidated basis in

accordance with GAAP; provided, that gross interest expense shall be determined after giving effect to any net payments made or received by such Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to Interest Rate Agreements.

"Consolidated Net Income" means, with respect to the Borrower or NAVL, for any period, the net income (loss) of such Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP and before any reduction in respect of Preferred Stock dividends (including dividends in respect of any Junior Preferred Stock); provided, that there shall not be included in such Consolidated Net Income:

(i) any net income (loss) of any Person if such Person is not a Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent, except that (A) subject to the limitations contained in clause (iv) below, such Parent's equity in the net income of any such Person for such period shall be included in such Consolidated Net Income up to the aggregate amount actually distributed by such Person during such period to such Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent as a dividend or other distribution (subject, in the case of a dividend or other distribution to a Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent to the limitations contained in clause (iii) below) and (B) such Parent's equity in the net loss of such Person shall be included to the extent of the aggregate Investment of such Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Person,

(ii) any net income (loss) of any Person acquired by such Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent in a pooling of interests transaction for any period prior to the date of such acquisition,

(iii) any net income (loss) of any Restricted Subsidiary of NAVL, or (solely in the case of any calculation of Consolidated Net Income of the Borrower) any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower other than NAVL or a Restricted Subsidiary of NAVL, or (in the case of any calculation of Consolidated Net Income of the Borrower pursuant to clause (3)(A) of paragraph (a) of Section 6.6) any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower, if such Restricted Subsidiary is subject to restrictions, directly or indirectly, on the payment of dividends or the making of similar distributions by such Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, in the case of such Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower, to the Borrower, in the case of such Restricted Subsidiary of NAVL, to NAVL, or in either case by operation of the terms of such Restricted Subsidiary's charter or any agreement, instrument, judgement, decree, order, statute or governmental rule or regulation applicable to such Restricted Subsidiary or its stockholders (other than (x) restrictions that have been waived or otherwise released, (y) restrictions pursuant to this Loan Agreement, the Senior Subordinated Notes or the Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture and (z) restrictions in effect on the Issue Date with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary and other restrictions with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary that taken as a whole are not materially less favorable to the Lenders than such restrictions in effect on the Issue Date), except that (A) subject to the limitations contained in clause (iv) below, such Parent's equity in the net income of any such Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent for such period shall be included in such Consolidated Net Income up to the aggregate amount of any dividend or distribution that was or that could have been made by such Restricted Subsidiary during such period to such Parent or another Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent (subject, in the case of a dividend that could have been made to another Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent, to the limitation contained in this clause), and (B) the net loss of such Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent shall be included to the extent of the aggregate Investment of such Parent or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries in such Restricted Subsidiary,

"Consolidation" means, for either Parent, the consolidation of the accounts of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries with those of such Parent in accordance with GAAP; provided that "Consolidation" will not include consolidation of the accounts of any Unrestricted Subsidiary, but the interest of such Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent in any Unrestricted Subsidiary will be accounted for as an investment.

authentication, sale and delivery of the Exchange Notes and compliance with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof (A) will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, (B) will not result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or by-laws, or equivalent constituent documents, of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and (C) will not result in the violation of the provisions of any statute or any judgment, order, decree, rule or regulation of any court or arbitrator or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets, except in each case under clauses (A), (B) and (C) where such breach, violation, default, lien, charge or encumbrance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and, on the Issue Date, the Borrower will have corporate power and authority (i) to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents and (ii) to enter into the Loan and issue the Exchange Notes as contemplated by this Agreement.

(k) No labor dispute with the employees of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof exists or, to the best knowledge of the Borrower, is contemplated or threatened that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(l) Except as disclosed in the NAVL Offering Memorandum, (i) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries own, possess or can acquire all adequate rights to use all material trademarks, service marks, trademark registrations, service ▇▇▇▇ registrations, trade names and other rights to inventions, know-how, patents, patent applications, copyrights, licenses and other intellectual property, including (without limitation) trade secrets and other unpatented and/or patentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures, (collectively, "intellectual property rights") necessary to conduct the business now operated by them, or presently employed by them, except to the extent that the failure to own, possess or acquire such adequate rights would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) no claim has been asserted and is pending claiming that the intellectual property rights infringe on or conflict with asserted rights of others that would individually or in the aggregate reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(n) Except as disclosed in the NAVL Offering memorandum, there are no pending actions, suits or proceedings against or affecting the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their properties that would individually or in the aggregate reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Borrower to perform its obligations under the Indenture or this Agreement.

(o) The historical consolidated financial statements of NAVL and its predecessor (including the related notes) contained in the NAVL Offering Memorandum have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and the historical consolidated financial statements of NFC Moving Services Group contained in the NAVL Offering Memorandum have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United Kingdom, each consistently applied throughout the periods covered thereby except as disclosed in the notes thereto and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the entities purported to be covered thereby at the respective dates indicated and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the respective periods indicated; the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma financial statements included in the NAVL Offering Memorandum provide a reasonable basis for presenting the estimated effects of the transactions or events described therein; and the related pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions, and the pro forma columns therein reflect the proper application of those adjustments to the corresponding historical financial statement amounts.

(p) Except as disclosed in the NAVL Offering Memorandum, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the NAVL Offering Memorandum, there has not been any development or event that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (it being understood that the Borrower makes no representation and warranty concerning any adverse change in the U.S. or global financial or capital markets).

(q) The Borrower is not an open-end investment company, unit investment trust or face-amount certificate company that is required to be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act; and the Borrower is not, and after giving effect to the Allied Acquisition and the offering and sale of the Exchange Notes and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Offering Memorandum will not be, an "investment company" as defined in the Investment Company Act that is required to be registered as such thereunder.

(r) No securities of the Borrower of the same class (within the meaning of Rule 144A (d)(3) under the Securities Act) as the Exchange Notes are listed on any national securities exchange registered under Section 6 of the Exchange Act or quoted in a U.S. automated inter-dealer quotation system.

(s) The issuance of the Exchange Notes by the Borrower to the Lenders in the manner contemplated by this Agreement will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; and it is not necessary to qualify the Indenture in respect of the Exchange Notes under the United States Trust Indenture Act; provided that the foregoing representation and warranty assumes the accuracy of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Lenders contained in this Agreement and in the Exchange Notice.

(t) None of the Borrower, any of its affiliates or any person (it being understood that no representation is made as to either Lender or any affiliate thereof) acting on their behalf (i) has, within a six-month period prior to the date hereof, offered or sold in the United States or to any U.S. person (as such term is defined in Regulation S) the Exchange Notes or any security of the same class or series as the Exchange Notes, other than as contemplated hereby or by the Offering Memorandum or (ii) has offered or will offer or sell the Exchange Notes (A) in the United States by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act or (B) with respect to any securities sold in reliance on Rule 903 of Regulation S, by means of any directed selling efforts within the meaning of Rule 902(c) of Regulation S. Each of the Borrower, any of its affiliates and any person (it being understood that no representation is made as to either Lender or any affiliate thereof) acting on their behalf has complied and will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S. The Borrower has not entered and will not enter into any contractual arrangement with respect to the distribution of the Notes except for (1) this Agreement, (2) each agreement dated as of November 11, 1999, among the Borrower, NAVL, the Lenders and, as the case may be, the other parties thereto, including without limitation the Commitment and Engagement Letter (as defined therein), the Fee Letter (as defined therein) and that certain letter referred to in the Fee Letter pertaining to additional fees, expenses and other matters and (3) other agreements or understandings with the Lenders and/or their respective affiliates, in the case of each of clauses (1), (2) and (3) prior to their respective terminations.

(u) On the Closing Date, the Borrower (immediately after and giving effect to the Allied Acquisition and to the issuance of the Notes and the other transactions related thereto as described in the NAVL Offering Memorandum) will be Solvent. As used in this paragraph, the term "Solvent" means, with respect to a particular entity and to a particular date, that on such date (a) on a pro forma basis, the present fair market value (or present fair saleable value) of such entity's assets is not less than the Borrower's probable liabilities (including contingent liabilities); (b) such entity should be able to pay its debts as they become absolute and mature; and (c) the capital remaining in such entity would not be unreasonably small for the business in which such entity is engaged after giving due consideration to the prevailing practice in the industry in which such entity is engaged. In computing the amount of such contingent liabilities at any time, it is intended that such liabilities will be computed at the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

(v) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any contract, agreement or understanding with any person that would give rise to a valid claim against the Lenders for a brokerage commission, finder's fee or like payment in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange Notes, other than the fees payable to the Lenders or their respective affiliates in connection with the offer and sale of the Exchange Notes.

(w) The Borrower and its affiliates have not taken and will not take, directly or indirectly, any action prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act in connection with the offering of the Exchange Notes.

(x) Except as disclosed in the NAVL Offering Memorandum, the proceeds to the Borrower from the offering of the Exchange Notes will not be used to purchase or carry any security.

(y) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is (i) in violation of its charter or by-laws, (ii) in default in any material respect, and no event has occurred which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default, in the due performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition contained in any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its property or assets is subject or (iii) in violation in any material respect of any law, ordinance, governmental rule, regulation or court decree to which it or its property or assets may be subject,

except in each case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) Each Lender represents and warrants to the Borrower that, independently and without reliance upon any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as such Lender has deemed appropriate, it has made and will make its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, it has made its own decision to make the Loan hereunder and enter into this Agreement, and it will make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

(b) Each Lender represents and warrants to the Borrower that such Lender is a commercial bank or other financial institution that is an "accredited investor" (as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act) and makes or acquires commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business, it is participating hereunder as a Lender for such commercial purposes in compliance with applicable law, and it has the knowledge and experience to be and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of being a Lender hereunder.

(c) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 9.6 applicable to the Lenders hereunder.

(i) The Borrower shall furnish to the Lenders such additional documents and opinions as they may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon the drawdown of the Loan as herein contemplated, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, herein contained.

SECTION 6. COVENANTS

A. The Borrower agrees with the Lenders that:

6.1 (a) The Borrower will use reasonable best efforts to provide to the Lenders an offering memorandum relating to the Exchange Notes on or before November 30, 1999 (the "Offering Memorandum"), in the form of a wrap around supplement to the NAVL Offering Memorandum (which may be word processed) the substance of which is, in the reasonable judgment of the Lenders and CDR, usual and customary for similar financings. The Offering Memorandum will not, as of its date, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Offering Memorandum based upon written information furnished to the Borrower by any Lender or any affiliate of any Lender (including Banc of America Securities LLC and Chase Securities Inc.) specifically for use therein. The Offering Memorandum, as of its date, will contain all of the information that, if requested by a prospective purchaser of the Notes, would be required to be provided to such prospective purchaser by the Company pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

(b) The Borrower will advise the Lenders promptly of any proposal to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum and will not effect such amendment or supplementation without the Lenders' consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If, at any time after the Loan has been exchanged for Exchange Notes, and prior to the completion of the initial resale of the Exchange Notes by the Lenders, any event occurs as a result of which the Offering Memorandum as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they

were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary at any such time to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum to comply with any applicable law, the Borrower promptly will notify the Lenders of such event and promptly will prepare, as its own expense, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance. Neither the Lenders' consent to, nor the Lenders' delivery to offerees or investors of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.

(c) The Borrower will furnish to the Lenders or their counsel copies of the Offering Memorandum and all amendments and supplements to such documents, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as the Lenders or their counsel reasonably request. At any time when the Exchange Notes are outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act and the Borrower is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Borrower will promptly furnish or cause to be furnished, upon request of holders and prospective purchasers of the Exchange Notes, to such holders and purchasers, copies of the information required to be delivered to holders and prospective purchasers of the Exchange Notes pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision thereto) in order to permit compliance with Rule 144A in connection with resales by such holders of the Exchange Notes. The Borrower will pay the expenses of printing and distributing to the Lenders and their counsel all such documents.

(d) The Borrower will arrange for the qualification of the Exchange Notes for sale and the determination of their eligibility for investment under the laws of such states in the United States as the Lenders reasonably designate and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as reasonably required for the initial resale of the Exchange Notes by the Lenders; provided that the Borrower will not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a general consent to service of process in any such state or other jurisdiction or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any state or other jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.

(e) During the period of two years after the Issue Date, the Borrower will, upon request, make available to the Lenders and any holder of Notes a copy of the restrictions on transfer applicable to the Exchange Notes.

(f) During the period of two years after the Issue Date, the Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) to, resell any of the Exchange Notes that have been reacquired by any of them, except for Exchange Notes purchased by the Borrower or any of its affiliates and resold in a transaction registered under the Securities Act.

(g) The Borrower will pay all reasonable expenses incidental to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement including (i) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and its professional advisers; (ii) all expenses in connection with the execution, issue, authentication, packaging and initial delivery of the Exchange Notes, the preparation, printing and distribution of this Agreement, the Exchange Notes, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Offering Memorandum and amendments and supplements thereto, and any other document relating to the issuance, offer, sale and delivery of the Notes; (iii) the cost of qualifying the Notes for trading in The Portal Market ("PORTAL") of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. and any expenses incidental thereto; (iv) the cost of any advertising approved by the Borrower in connection with the issue of the Exchange Notes; (v) for any expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with qualification of the Exchange Notes for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as Blue Ridge reasonably designates, and the printing of memoranda relating thereto; (vi) for any fees charged by investment rating agencies for the rating of the Exchange Notes; (vii) for expenses incurred in distributing the Offering Memorandum (including any amendments and supplements thereto) to the Lenders; (viii) fees and expenses of the Borrower's counsel and independent accountants; (ix) all expenses and application fees incurred in the approval of

the Notes for book-entry transfer by the Depositary Trust Company ("DTC"); and (x) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement which are not otherwise specifically provided for in this Section 6(g); provided, however, that except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 6(g) and Section 9, the Lenders shall pay their own costs and expenses, including the costs and expenses of their counsel, any taxes on the Notes which they may sell and the expenses of advertising and offering of the Notes made by the Lenders. The Borrower will also pay or reimburse the Lenders (to the extent incurred by them prior to the Issue Date) for all reasonable travel expenses of the Borrower's officers and employees and any other reasonable expenses of the Borrower in connection with attending or hosting meetings with prospective purchasers of the Exchange Notes.

(h) In connection with the initial offering of the Exchange Notes, until the earlier of (i) such time as Blue Ridge shall have notified the Borrower and the other Lender of the completion by the Lenders of the initial resale of the Exchange Notes and (ii) 180 days after the Issue Date, none of the Borrower and its affiliates has or will, either alone or with one or more other persons, bid for or purchase, for any account in which it has a beneficial interest, any Exchange Notes or attempt to induce any person to purchase any Exchange Notes, in any such case for the purpose of creating actual, or apparent, active trading in, or of raising the price of, the Exchange Notes. Blue Ridge agrees to give such notice promptly upon such completion.

(i) For a period of 180 days after the Issue Date (if the sale of the Notes by the Borrower to the Lenders shall have occurred), the Borrower will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any dollar denominated debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Borrower and having a maturity of more than one year from the date of issue, except (i) issuances of Exchange Securities pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) grants of employee stock options pursuant to the terms of a plan in effect on the date hereof, issuances of Exchange Notes pursuant to the exercise of such options or the exercise of any other employee stock options outstanding on the date hereof or (iii) Promissory notes or other debt securities issued or guaranteed in immaterial amounts in the ordinary course of business.

(j) The Borrower will use its reasonable best efforts to assist the Lenders in arranging for the Exchange Notes to be eligible for clearance and settlement through DTC.

(k) Except following the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, the Borrower will not, and will cause its affiliates not to, nor will authorize or knowingly permit any person acting on its behalf to, solicit any offer to buy or offer to sell the Exchange Notes by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Regulation D or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act; and the Borrower will not offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any securities under circumstances where such offer, sale, contract or disposition would cause the exemption afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or the safe harbor afforded by Regulation S thereunder to cease to be applicable to the offering and sale of the Exchange Notes as contemplated by this Agreement and the Offering Memorandum.

(l) The Borrower will apply the net proceeds from the Loan as set forth in the NAVL Offering Memorandum under the heading "Use of Proceeds."

(m) The Borrower will not, and will not cause its affiliates to, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as such term is defined in the Securities Act) which could be integrated with the sale of the Exchange Notes in a manner which would require registration of the Exchange Notes under the Securities Act.

B. In addition, the Borrower hereby agrees that, from and after the Effective Date and until payment in full of the Loan and any other amount then due and owing to either Lender hereunder, the Borrower shall:

6.2 Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Borrower will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

6.3 SEC Reports. Notwithstanding that the Borrower may not be required to be or remain subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Borrower will file with the SEC (unless such filing is not permitted under the Exchange Act or by the SEC), so long as the Loan is outstanding, the annual reports, information, documents and other reports (if any) that the Borrower is required to file with the Commission pursuant to such Section 13(a) or 15(d). The Borrower will also, within 15 days after the date on which the Borrower was so required to file or would be so required to file if the Borrower were so subject (or, if later, 120 days after the Issue Date), transmit by mail to the Lenders copies of any such information, documents and reports (without exhibits) so required to be filed (or, in lieu of one or more of the annual reports for the fiscal year ended December 25, 1999 and the quarterly reports for the following fiscal year, a registration statement filed with the SEC under the Securities Act or any amendment thereto, provided such registration statement or amendment contains the information that would have been included in each such report).

6.4 Statement as to Default. The Borrower will deliver to the Lenders, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower ending after the date hereof, an Officer's Certificate, to the effect that to the best knowledge of the signer thereof the Borrower is or is not in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Borrower shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which such signer may have knowledge. The individual signing any certificate given by any Person pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall be the principal executive, financial or accounting officer of such Person.

6.5 Limitation on Indebtedness.

(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur any Indebtedness; provided, however, that the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary may Incur Indebtedness if on the date of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, after giving effect to the Incurrence thereof, the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Borrower would be greater than 1.75:1.00 if such Indebtedness is Incurred on or prior to December 1, 2001 or 2.00:1.00 if such Indebtedness is Incurred thereafter; and NAVL or any Senior Subordinated Note Guarantor may Incur Indebtedness if, on the date of Incurrence of such Indebtedness, after giving effect to the Incurrence thereof, (x) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of NAVL would be greater than 2.00:1.00 if such Indebtedness is Incurred on or prior to December 1, 2001 or 2.25:1.00 if such Indebtedness is Incurred thereafter and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness of the Borrower then outstanding and incurred after the Issue Date (that is not Indebtedness of NAVL or any Restricted Subsidiary, or a Guarantee of any such Indebtedness) does not exceed $50.0 million.

(ii) Indebtedness (A) of any Restricted Subsidiary to the Borrower or (B) of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary to any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary to which such Indebtedness is owed, or other event, that results in such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of such Indebtedness (except to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary) will be deemed, in each case, an Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the issuer thereof,

6.8 Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock.

(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Asset Disposition unless

(i) the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration (including by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise) at the time of such Asset Disposition at least equal to the fair market value of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Disposition, as such fair market value may be determined (and shall be determined, to the extent such Asset Disposition or any series of related Asset Dispositions involves aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million) in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive (including as to the value of all noncash consideration),

(ii) in the case of any Asset Disposition (or series of related Asset Dispositions) at least 75% of the consideration therefor (excluding, in the case of an Asset Disposition (or series of related Asset Dispositions) of assets, any consideration by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise, that are not Indebtedness) received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of (a) cash, or (b) Designated Noncash Assets having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Noncash Assets received in consideration for Asset Dispositions pursuant to this clause (b) that are at the time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) 5% of Consolidated Tangible Assets and (y) $35.0 million at the time of receipt of such Designated Noncash Assets; and

(iii) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Borrower (or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) as follows:

(A) first, either (x) to the extent the Borrower elects to prepay, repay or purchase Indebtedness of the Borrower (other than Subordinated Obligations) ranking pari passu with the Loan or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary (in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary) within 365 days after the date of such Asset Disposition, or (y) to the extent the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, to reinvest in Additional Assets (including by means of an investment in Additional Assets by a

Restricted Subsidiary with Net Available Cash received by the Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary) within 365 days from the date of such Asset Disposition;

(B) second, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application in accordance with clause (A) above (such balance, the "Excess Proceeds"), to make an offer to repay the Loan and (to the extent the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, or is required by the terms thereof) to purchase, redeem or repay any other Indebtedness ranking pari passu in right of payment with the Loan ("Pari Passu Indebtedness"), pursuant and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and the agreements governing such other Indebtedness; and

(C) third, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application in accordance with clauses (A) and (B) above, to fund (to the extent consistent with any other applicable provision of this Agreement) any general corporate purpose (including but not limited to the repurchase, repayment or other acquisition or retirement of any Subordinated Obligations);

provided, however, that in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to clause (A)(x) or (B) above, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related loan commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.8, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to apply any Net Available Cash in accordance with this Section 6.8 except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions that is not applied in accordance with this Section 6.8 exceeds $15.0 million. If the aggregate principal amount of the Loan and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered and not withdrawn (or otherwise subject to purchase, redemption or repayment) in connection with an offer pursuant to clause (B) above exceeds the Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds will be apportioned between the Loan and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, with the portion of the Excess Proceeds payable in respect of the Loan to equal the lesser of (x) the Excess Proceeds amount multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Loan and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan and the outstanding principal amount of the relevant Pari Passu Indebtedness, and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Loan validly tendered and not withdrawn.

For the purposes of clause (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 6.8, the following are deemed to be cash: (1) Temporary Cash Investments and Cash Equivalents, (2) the assumption of Indebtedness of the Borrower (other than Disqualified Stock of the Borrower) or any Restricted Subsidiary and the release of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on payment of the principal amount of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition, (3) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Disposition, to the extent that the Borrower and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any Guarantee of payment of the principal amount of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition, (4) securities received by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days after the consummation of such Asset Disposition and (5) consideration consisting of outstanding Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary which is then retired.

(b) In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the repayment of the Loan pursuant to clause (iii)(B) of the first paragraph of this Section 6.8, the Borrower will be required to repay the Loan pursuant to an offer by the Borrower to repay the Loan (the "Offer") at a purchase price of 100% of the Accreted Value thereof on the date of repayment plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in paragraph (c) of this Section 6.8. If the aggregate amount of the Loan and other pari passu

Indebtedness tendered pursuant to the Offer is less than the Net Available Cash allotted to the repayment of the Loan and other Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered, the remaining Net Available Cash will be available to repay the Loan in accordance with clause (iii)(B) or (iii)(C) of the first paragraph of this Section 6.8. The Borrower shall not be required to make an Offer to repay the Loan pursuant to this Section 6.8 if the Net Available Cash available therefor (after application of the proceeds as provided in clause (iii)(A) of the first paragraph of this Section 6.8) is less than $15.0 million for any particular Asset Disposition (which lesser amounts shall be carried forward for purposes of determining whether an Offer is required with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition).

(c) The Borrower will, not later than 45 days after the Borrower becomes obligated to make an Offer pursuant to this Section 6.8, mail a notice to the Lenders stating: (1) that an Asset Disposition that requires the repayment of a portion of the Loan has occurred and that the Lenders have the right (subject to the prorating described below) to require the Borrower to repay a portion of the Loan at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the Accreted Value thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to Section 3.07); (2) the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Asset Disposition; (3) the repayment date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed); (4) the instructions determined by the Borrower, consistent with this Section 6.8, that the Lenders must follow in order to have the Loan repaid; and (5) the amount of the Offer.

(d) The Borrower will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repayment of the Loan pursuant to this Section 6.8. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 6.8, the Borrower will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 6.8 by virtue thereof.

6.9 Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction or series of related transactions (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Borrower (an "Affiliate Transaction") unless (i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained at the time in a transaction with a Person who is not such an Affiliate and (ii) if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, the terms of such Affiliate Transaction have been approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors. For purposes of this paragraph, any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in this paragraph if (x) such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors or (y) in the event there are no Disinterested Directors, a fairness opinion is provided by a nationally recognized appraisal or investment banking firm with respect to such Affiliate Transaction.

(b) The provisions of the preceding paragraph (a) of this Section 6.10 will not apply to;

(i) any Restricted Payment Transaction,

(ii) (1) the entering into, maintaining or performance of any employment contract, collective bargaining agreement, benefit plan, program or arrangement, related trust agreement or any other similar arrangement for or with any employee, officer or director heretofore or hereafter entered into in the ordinary course of business, including vacation, health, insurance, deferred compensation, severance, retirement, savings or other similar plans, programs or arrangements, (2) the payment of compensation, performance of indemnification or contribution obligations, or any issuance, grant or award of stock, options, other equity-related interests or other securities, to employees, officers or directors in the ordinary course of business, (3) the payment of fees to

directors of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (4) any transaction with an officer or director in the ordinary course of business not involving more than $100,000 in any one case, or (5) Management Advances and payments in respect thereof,

(iii) any transaction with the Borrower, any Restricted Subsidiary, or any Receivables Entity,

(iv) any transaction arising out of agreements or instruments in existence on the Issue Date, and any payments made pursuant thereto,

(vi) the Transactions, all transactions in connection therewith (including but not limited to the financing thereof), and all fees or expenses paid or payable in connection with the Transactions,

(vii) any transaction in the ordinary course of business on terms not materially less favorable to the Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained at the time in a transaction with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Borrower,

(viii) any transaction in the ordinary course of business, or approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, between the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Affiliate of the Borrower controlled by the Borrower that is a joint venture or similar entity, and

(ix) any issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Borrower, or options, warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock.

6.10 Limitation on Liens. The Borrower shall not, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of any other Person), whether owned on the date of this Agreement or hereafter acquired, securing any Indebtedness of the Borrower that by its terms is expressly subordinated in right of payment to or ranks pari passu in right of payment with the Loan or any other Indebtedness of the Borrower (the "Initial Lien"), unless contemporaneously therewith effective provision is made to secure the Indebtedness due under this Agreement equally and ratably with such obligation for so long as such obligation is so secured by such Initial Lien. Any such Lien thereby created in favor of the Loan will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) the release and discharge of the Initial Lien to which it relates, or (ii) any sale, exchange or transfer to any Person not an Affiliate of the Borrower of the property or assets secured by such Initial Lien.

6.11 Payment of Loan Upon a Change in Control. Upon a Change of Control, the Lenders will have the right to require the Borrower to repay all or any part of the Loan at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the Accreted Value thereof on the date of repayment, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repayment; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to repay the loan pursuant to this Section 6.11 in the event that it has exercised its right to prepay the Loan in its entirety pursuant to Section 3.

(b) In the event that, at the time of such Change of Control, the terms of the Bank Indebtedness restrict or prohibit the repayment of the Loan pursuant to this Section 6.11, then prior to the mailing of the notice to the Lenders provided for in clause (c) of this Section 6.11 but in any event not later than 30 days following the date the Borrower obtains actual knowledge of any Change of Control (unless the Borrower has exercised its right to repay the Loan in its entirety as provided in Section 3), NAVL shall (i) repay in full all Bank Indebtedness or offer to repay in full all Bank Indebtedness and repay the Bank Indebtedness of each lender who has accepted such offer or (ii) obtain the requisite

consent under the agreements governing the Bank Indebtedness to permit the repayment of the Loan as provided for in clause (c) of this Section 6.11. The Borrower shall first comply with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence before it shall be required to repay the Loan pursuant to the provisions of clause (c) of this Section 6.11. The Borrower's failure to comply with the provisions of (x) the first sentence of this clause (b) or (y) clause (c) of this Section 6.11 shall constitute an Event of Default described in clause (3) and not in clause (2) under Section 8.1.

(c) Unless the Borrower has exercised its right to repay the Loan as set forth in Section 3, the Borrower shall, not later than 30 days following the date the Borrower obtains actual knowledge of any Change of Control having occurred, mail a notice to the Lenders stating: (1) that a Change of Control has occurred or may occur and that the Lenders have, or upon such occurrence will have, the right to require the Borrower to repay the Loan at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the Accreted Value thereof on the date of repayment, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repayment; (2) the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Change of Control; (3) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed); (4) the instructions determined by the Borrower, consistent with this Section 6.11, that the Lender must follow in order to have the Loan purchased; and (5) if such notice is mailed prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control or Change of Control, that such offer is conditioned on the occurrence of such Change of Control.

SECTION 7. SUCCESSOR COMPANY

7.1 When the Borrower May Merge, etc. The Borrower will not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, unless:

(i) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the "Successor Company") will be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and the Successor Company (if not the Borrower) will expressly assume all the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan and this Agreement by executing and delivering to the Lenders a supplemental agreement or one or more other documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the Lenders;

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default will have occurred and be continuing;

(iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, the Successor Company could Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to paragraph (a) of Section 6.5; and

(iv) the Borrower will have delivered to the Lenders an Officer's Certificate and an opinion of counsel, each to the effect that such consolidation, merger or transfer complies with the provisions described in this paragraph of this Section 7.1, provided that (x) in giving such opinion such counsel may rely on an Officer's Certificate as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii) and as to any matters of fact, and (y) no opinion of counsel will be required for a consolidation, merger or transfer described in the last paragraph of this Section 7.1.

Any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (or that is deemed to be Incurred by any Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) as a result of any such transaction undertaken in compliance with this Section 7.1, and any Refinancing Indebtedness with respect thereto, shall be deemed to have been Incurred in compliance with Section 6.5.

Clauses (ii) and (iii) of the first paragraph of this Section 7.1 will not apply to any transaction in which (1) any Restricted Subsidiary consolidates with, merges into or transfers all or part of its assets to the Borrower or (2) the Borrower consolidates or merges with or into or transfers all or substantially all its properties and assets to (x) an Affiliate incorporated or organized for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing the Borrower in another jurisdiction or changing its legal structure to a corporation or other entity or (y) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower so long as all assets of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction (other than Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary) are owned by such Restricted Subsidiary and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately after the consummation thereof.

7.2 Successor Company Substituted. Upon any transaction involving the Borrower in accordance with Section 7.1, in which the Borrower is not the Successor Company, the Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Borrower under this Agreement, and thereafter the Borrower shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Agreement.

SECTION 8. EVENTS OF DEFAULT

8.1 Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs if:

(1) the Borrower defaults in any payment of interest on the Loan when due, and such default continues for a period of 30 days;

(2) the Borrower defaults in the payment of the principal of the Loan when the same becomes due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional repayment, upon required purchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise;

(3) the Borrower fails to comply with Section 6.11 (other than a failure to repay the Loan), and such failure continues for 30 days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 8.1;

(4) the Borrower fails to comply with any of its agreements in this Agreement (other than those referred to in (1), (2) and (3) above) and such failure continues for 60 days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 8.1;

(5) the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary fails to pay any Indebtedness within any applicable grace period after final maturity or the acceleration of any such Indebtedness by the holders thereof because of a default if the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $15,000,000 or its foreign currency equivalent;

(6) the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(A) commences a voluntary case;

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;

(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(7) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(A) is for relief against the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(B) appoints a Custodian of the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or

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

(8) there is rendered any judgment or decree for the payment of money in an amount (net of any insurance or indemnity payments actually received within 90 days from the entry thereof, or to be received in respect thereof in the event any appeal thereof shall be unsuccessful) in excess of $15,000,000 or its foreign currency equivalent against the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary by a court or other adjudicatory authority of competent jurisdiction that is not discharged, or bonded or insured by a third Person, if such judgment or decree remains outstanding for a period of 90 days following such judgment or decree and is not discharged, waived or stayed;

(9) The Borrower fails to consummate the Common Stock Issuance and repay or cause to be repaid in full the outstanding principal amount of the Holding Loan on or before December 31, 1999.

The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

The term "Bankruptcy Law" means ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Code, or any similar Federal, state or foreign law for the relief of debtors. The term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

A Default under clause (3) or (4) is not an Event of Default until the Lenders notify of the Default and the Borrower does not cure such Default within the time specified therein after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a "Notice of Default." When a Default or an Event of Default is cured, it ceases.

The Borrower shall deliver to the Lenders, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officer's Certificate of any Event of Default under clause (5) or (8) and any event that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under clause (3) or (4), its status and what action the Borrower is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

8.2 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (6) or (7) of Section 8.1 with respect to the Borrower) occurs and is continuing, the Lenders may deliver a notice to the Borrower specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a "notice of acceleration," may declare the Accreted Value of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Loan to be due and payable. Upon the effectiveness of such a declaration, such Accreted Value and interest will be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (6) or (7) of Section 8.1 with respect to the Borrower occurs and is continuing, then the Accreted Value of and any accrued interest on the Loan will ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Lenders. The Lenders by notice to the Borrower may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except non-payment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of such acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Loan because an Event of Default specified in clause (5) of Section 8.1 shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration of the Loan and such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (including without limitation any acceleration or resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Lender, and be of no further effect, if within 60 days after such Event of Default arose (x) the Indebtedness that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default, or (z) the default in respect of such Indebtedness that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

8.3 Other Remedies; Collection Suit by Lenders. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Lenders may, but are not obligated under this Section 8.3 to, pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Loan or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Agreement. If an Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(1) or 8.1(2) occurs and is continuing, the Lenders may recover judgment against the Borrower for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful).

8.4 Unconditional Right of the Lenders to Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Lenders shall have the absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the Accreted Value of and all interest on the Loan on the respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Dates and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Dates, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of the Lenders.

8.5 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Lenders have has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Lenders, then and in every such case the Borrower and the Lenders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Lenders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

8.6 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

8.7 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Lenders to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Section 8 or by law to the Lenders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Lenders.

8.8 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Lenders may waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Agreement; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. In case of any such waiver, the Borrower and the Lenders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder.

8.9 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Agreement agree that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Agreement, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant. This Section 8.9 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Lenders for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or Accreted Value) or interest on the Loan on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Dates.

8.10 Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Borrower covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other similar law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that would prohibit or forgive the Borrower from paying all or any portion of the principal of (or Accreted Value) or interest on the Loan contemplated herein or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Agreement; and the Borrower (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Lenders, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

9.7 Indemnification and Contribution. (a) Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and each of its respective affiliates (the "Lender Parties") against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Lender Parties may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related preliminary offering memorandum, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each Lender Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Lender Parties in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Borrower will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Borrower by any Lender Parties specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below; and provided further, that the foregoing indemnity with respect to any preliminary offering memorandum shall not inure to the benefit of any Lender Parties from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased Exchange Notes, or any person controlling such Indemnified Person, if a copy of the final offering memorandum (as then amended or supplemented if the Borrower shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) was not seen or given by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person to such person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Exchange Notes to such person, and any such untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or any such omission or alleged omission of a material fact from, such preliminary offering memorandum giving rise to such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, was corrected in the final offering memorandum (as so amended or supplemented) unless such failure is the result of noncompliance by the Borrower with the first sentence of 6.1(c) hereof in failing to deliver the final offering memorandum (as so amended or supplemented) to such Lender Party.

(b) Each Lender will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Borrower and its affiliates against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Borrower may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue

statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related preliminary offering memorandum, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Borrower by such Lender or its affiliates specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Borrower in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (if such counsel is counsel to the indemnifying party and the representation of the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, the indemnified party will have the right to employ separate counsel, and the indemnifying party will bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of only one such separate counsel for all indemnified parties) and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in which any indemnified party is a party to the extent such settlement is binding upon such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Borrower on the one hand and the Lender Parties on the other from the offering of the Exchange Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Borrower on the one hand and the Lender Parties on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Borrower on the one hand and the Lender Parties on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Borrower bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Lender Parties from the Borrower in connection with this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Borrower or the

Lender Parties and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), to the extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Lender Parties or any other indemnified parties be required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of the aggregate fees actually paid to the Lender Parties in connection with the issuance of the Loans hereunder. The Lender Parties' obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations and not joint.

(e) The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Borrower may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Lender Parties within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; and the obligations of the Lender Parties under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Lender Parties may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Borrower within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

(f) 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.

9.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Lenders.

9.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

9.10 Integration. This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the Borrower and the Lender with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Borrower or the Lenders relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein.

(5) if since the beginning of such period any Person became a Restricted Subsidiary of such Parent or was merged or consolidated with or into such Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof, and since the beginning of such period such Person shall have Discharged any Indebtedness or made any Sale or Purchase that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (2), (3) or (4) above if made by such Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof during such period, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense of such Parent for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Discharge, Sale or Purchase occurred on the first day of such period.

to such Indebtedness). If any Indebtedness bears, at the option of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, a rate of interest based on a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate or other fixed or floating rate, and such Indebtedness is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be calculated by applying such optional rate as the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may designate. If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect was Incurred under a revolving credit facility, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period.

Upon any application or request by the Company or by any other obligor upon the Notes to the Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Company or such other obligor upon the Notes, as the case may be, shall furnish to the Trustee such certificates and opinions as may be required under the TIA. Each such certificate or opinion shall be given in the form of one or more Officer's Certificates, if to be given by an Officer, or an Opinion of Counsel, if to be given by counsel, and shall comply with the requirements of the TIA and any other requirements set forth in this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any such request or application as to which the furnishing of any Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular request or application, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (except for certificates provided for in Section 4.05) shall include:

(1) a statement that the individual signing such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating thereto;

(2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

(3) a statement that, in the opinion of such individual, he or she made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

(4) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of such individual, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

Section 1.07 Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an Officer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Officer knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer or Officers to the effect that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

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

Section 1.08 Acts of Noteholders; Record Dates.

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.08.

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership or other entity, on behalf of such corporation or partnership or other entity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such Person's authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient.

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Note shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee, the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

(e) (i) The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Notes entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given,

made or taken by Holders of Notes, provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in subclause (e)(ii) of this Section 1.08. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Notes on such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Persons remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 1.10.

(ii) The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Notes entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 6.02, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 6.07(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 6.12, in each case with respect to Notes. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Notes on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company's expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 1.10.

(iii) With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.08, the party hereto that sets such record dates may designate any day as the "Expiration Date" and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the Company or the Trustee, whichever such party is not setting a record date pursuant to this Section 1.08(e) in writing, and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 1.10, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

(iv) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal

amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

Section 1.09 Notices, etc., to Trustee and Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

(1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at State Street Bank and Trust Company, Corporate Trust Department, 2 Avenue de Lafayette, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ or at any other address furnished in writing to the Company by the Trustee, or

(2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company c/o North American Van Lines, Inc., ▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ West, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇, Attention: Chief Financial Officer (telephone: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇; telecopier: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇), with copies to North American Van Lines, Inc., ▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ West, P.O.

Section 1.10 Notices to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at such Holder's address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner; such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impossible to mail notice of any event as required by any provision of this Indenture, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

Section 1.11 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 1.12 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 1.13 Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 1.14 Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, any Paying Agent and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 1.15 GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. THE TRUSTEE, THE COMPANY, ANY OTHER OBLIGOR IN RESPECT OF THE NOTES AND (BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE NOTES) THE HOLDERS, AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE NOTES.

Section 1.16 Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Note shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then(notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) payment of interest or principal and premium (if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity.

Section 1.17 No Personal Liability of Directors, officers, Employees, Incorporators and Stockholders. No director, officer, employee, incorporator, member or stockholder, as such, of the Company or any Subsidiary of any thereof shall have any liability for any obligation of the Company under this Indenture or the Notes, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, any such obligation or its creation. Each Noteholder, by accepting the Notes, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

THE NOTES

Section 3.01 Title and Terms. The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered and Outstanding under this Indenture is limited to $150,866,510, except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer thereof, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Section 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 3.12(c), 3.12(d), 3.13(1)(c), 9.06 and 10.08. The Initial Notes will be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $[ ]. All the Original Notes shall vote and consent together on all matters as one class, and none of the Original Notes will have the right to vote or consent as a class separate from one another on any matter. Additional Notes (including any Exchange Notes issued in exchange therefor) may vote as a class with the other Notes and otherwise be treated as Notes for purposes of this Indenture.

The Notes shall be known and designated as the "16% Senior Discount Notes due 2009" of the Company. The final Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be December 1, 2009. Each Note will accrete at a rate of 16% per annum, compounded semi-annually, to an aggregate principal amount of $75,433,255.15 by December 1, 2004. Thereafter, interest will accrue at the rate of 16% per annum and

will be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 in each year, commencing on June 1,2000, to holders of record on the immediately preceding May 15 and November 15, respectively (each such May 15 and November 15, a "Regular Record Date"). Interest on the Original Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for; and interest on any Additional Notes (and Exchange Notes issued in exchange therefor) will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for; provided, that if any Note is surrendered for exchange on or after a record date for an Interest Payment Date that will occur on or after the date of such exchange, interest on the Note received in exchange thereof will accrue from the date of such Interest Payment Date.

The principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or the corporate trust office of an affiliate of the Paying Agent in New York City (the "Place of Payment"); provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest on a Note may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Note Register, or, if a Holder has given wire instructions to the Company, by wire transfer to a United States dollar account maintained by the Holder with a bank located in New York City.

Section 3.02 Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

Section 3.03 Execution, Authentication and Delivery and Dating. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company by one Officer of the Company. The signature of such Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile.

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

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication; and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (i) Initial Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed $75,433,255.15 and (ii) Additional Notes from time to time for original issue in aggregate principal amount not to exceed $75,433,255.15 and (iii) Exchange Notes from time to time for issue in exchange for a like principal amount of Initial Notes or Initial Additional Notes, in each case specified in clauses (i) through (iii) above, upon a written order of the Company in the form of an Officer's Certificate of the Company (an "Authentication Order"). Such Officer's Certificate shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes, Additional Notes or Exchange Notes and whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more Global Notes or Physical Notes and such other information as the Company may include or the Trustee may reasonably request. Any offering of Additional Notes is subject to Section 4.06.

All Notes shall be dated the date of their authentication.

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

Section 3.04 Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the

Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. If temporary Notes are issued, the Company will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Company shall execute and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes of the same series and tenor.

Section 3.05 Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the "Note Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Trustee is hereby appointed "Note Registrar" for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided.

Upon surrender for transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, in compliance with all applicable requirements of this Indenture and applicable law, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.

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

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

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

No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes under this Section 3.05.

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, transfer or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption (or purchase) of Notes selected for redemption (or purchase) under Section 10.04 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to transfer or exchange any Note so selected for redemption (or purchase) in whole or in part.

Section 3.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 3.06, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 3.06 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 3.07 Payment of Interest Rights Preserved. Interest on any Note that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest specified in Section 3.01.

Any interest on any Note that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below:

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this clause (1). Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder at such Holder's address as it appears in the Note Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2), such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Note.

Section 3.08 Persons Deemed Owners. The Company any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on, such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 3.09 Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer, exchange or conversion shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and, if not already cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 3.09, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by a Company Order of the Company.

Section 3.10 Computation of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Section 3.11 CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use), and if so, the Trustee may use the CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes.

Section 3.12 Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes.

(a) Each Global Note initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Note or the nominee of such Depositary and (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depositary. Neither the Company nor any agent of the Company shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

Members of, or participants in, the Depositary ("Agent Members") shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and any agent of any of them as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee or any agent of any of them from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a beneficial owner of any Note. The registered holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

(b) Transfers of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global Note in whole, but, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Note may not be transferred or exchanged for Physical Notes, unless (i) the Company has consented thereto in writing, or such transfer or exchange is made pursuant to the next sentence, and (ii) such transfer or exchange is in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary and the provisions of Sections 3.05 and 3.13. Subject to the limitation on issuance of Physical Notes set forth in Section 3.13(3), U.S. Physical Notes or Offshore Physical Notes shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in the relevant U.S. Global Note or the relevant Offshore Global Note, respectively, if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the applicable Global Note or the Depositary ceases to be a "Clearing Agency" registered under the Exchange Act and the Company is unable to locate a qualified successor depositary within 90 days, (ii) the Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Physical Notes under this Indenture or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Note Registrar has received a written request from the Depositary to issue Physical Notes.

(c) In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the beneficial interest in any Global Note to beneficial owners for Physical Notes pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 3.12, the Note Registrar shall record on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and principal amount of authorized denominations.

(d) In connection with a transfer of an entire Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 3.12, the applicable Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary in exchange for its beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount at maturity of U.S. Physical Notes (in the case of any U.S. Global Note) or Offshore Physical Notes (in the case of any Offshore Global Note), as the case may be, of authorized denominations.

(e) The transfer and exchange of a Global Note or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 3.13) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a different Global Note will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary's procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in the relevant Global Note. Subject to Section 3.13, the Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions, instruct the Depositary to credit to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in such Global Note and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer of the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.

(f) Any Physical Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 3.12 shall, unless such exchange is made on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Note and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.03 and Section 3.13, bear the Private Placement Legend.

(g) The Company, any other obligor upon the Notes or the Trustee, in the discretion of any of them, may treat as the Act of a Holder any instrument or writing of any Person that is identified by the Depositary as the owner of a beneficial interest in the Global Note, provided that the fact and date of the execution of such instrument or writing is proved in accordance with Section 1.08(b).

Section 3.13 Special Transfer Provisions

(1) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is a Restricted Security to any Non-U.S. Person: The Note Registrar shall register such transfer if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 3.05) and,

(a) if (x) such transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such Note or (y) the distribution compliance period set forth in Regulation S has expired and the proposed transferor has delivered to the Note Registrar a Regulation S Certificate and, unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Trustee, an opinion of counsel, certifications and other information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, and

(b) if the proposed transferor is or is acting through an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a Global Note, upon receipt by the Note Registrar of (x) the certificate, opinion, certifications and other information, if any, required by clause (a) above and (y) written instructions given in accordance with the Depositary's and the Note Registrar's procedures;

(c) whereupon (i) the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and (if the transfer does not involve a transfer of any Outstanding Physical Note) a decrease in the principal amount of the relevant Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the relevant Global Note to be transferred, and (ii) either (A) if the proposed transferee is

or is acting through an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a relevant Offshore Global Note, the Trustee shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of such Offshore Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest being so transferred or (B) otherwise the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and amount.

(2) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is a Restricted Security to a QIB (excluding transfers to Non-U.S. Persons): The Note Registrar shall register such transfer if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 3.05) and,

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

(b) if the proposed transferee is an Agent Member, and the Note to be transferred consists of a Physical Note that after transfer is to be evidenced by an interest in a Global Note or consists of a beneficial interest in a Global Note that after the transfer is to be evidenced by an interest in a different Global Note, upon receipt by the Note Registrar of written instructions given in accordance with the Depositary's and the Note Registrar's procedures, whereupon the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the transferee Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Note or such beneficial interest in such transferor Global Note to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Note so transferred or reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such transferor Global Note, as the case may be.

(3) Limitation on Issuance of Physical Notes. No Physical Note shall be exchanged for a beneficial interest in any Global Note, except in accordance with Section 3.12 and this Section 3.13.

A beneficial owner of an interest in an Offshore Global Note shall not be permitted to exchange such interest for a Physical Note until a date, which must be after the expiration of the distribution compliance period set forth in Regulation S, on which the Company receives a certificate of beneficial ownership substantially in the form of Exhibit D from such beneficial owner (a "Certificate of Beneficial Ownership"). Such date, as it relates to an Offshore Global Note, is herein referred to as the "Offshore Note Exchange Date."

(4) Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend, unless (i) the requested transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such Notes, or (ii) upon written request of the Company after there is delivered to the Note Registrar an opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee) to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act, or (iii) with respect to an Offshore Global Note or Offshore Physical Note only,

with the agreement of the Company on or after the Offshore Note Exchange Date with respect to such Note, or (iv) such Notes are sold or exchanged pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

(5) Other Transfers. The Note Registrar shall effect and register, upon receipt of a written request from the Company so to do, a transfer not otherwise permitted by this Section 3.13, such registration to be done in accordance with the otherwise applicable provisions of this Section 3.13, upon the furnishing by the proposed transferor or transferee of a written opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee) to the effect that, and such other certifications or information as the Company may require to confirm that, the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

A Note that is a Restricted Security may not be transferred other than as provided in this Section 3.13. A beneficial interest in a Global Note that is a Restricted Security may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note other than through a transfer in compliance with this Section 3.13.

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

The Note Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 3.12 or this Section 3.13 (including all Notes received for transfer pursuant to this Section 3.13). The Company shall have the right to require the Note Registrar to deliver to the Company, at the Company's expense, copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Note Registrar.

In connection with any transfer of any Note, the Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Company shall be entitled to receive, shall be under no duty to inquire into, may conclusively presume the correctness of, and shall be fully protected in relying upon the certificates, opinions and other information referred to herein (or in the forms provided herein, attached hereto or to the Notes, or otherwise) received from any Holder and any transferee of any Note regarding the validity, legality and due authorization of any such transfer, the eligibility of the transferee to receive such Note and any other facts and circumstances related to such transfer.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness Incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness, provided that (x) the Dollar-equivalent principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date, (y) if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced and (z) the Dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency and Incurred pursuant to the Senior Credit Facility shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on, at the Company's option, (i) the Issue Date, (ii) any date on which any of the respective commitments under the Senior Credit Facility shall be reallocated between or among facilities or subfacilities thereunder, or on which such rate is otherwise calculated for any purpose thereunder, or (iii) the date of such Incurrence. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

(2) pursuant to any agreement or instrument of a Person, or relating to Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person, which Person is acquired by or merged or consolidated with or into the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, or which agreement or instrument is assumed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with an acquisition of assets from such Person, as in effect at the time of such acquisition, merger or consolidation (except to the extent that such Indebtedness was incurred to finance, or otherwise in connection with, such acquisition, merger or consolidation), provided that for purposes of this clause (2), if another Person is the Successor Company, any Subsidiary thereof or agreement or instrument of such Person or any such Subsidiary shall be deemed acquired or assumed, as the case may be, by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, when such Person becomes the Successor Company;

(3) pursuant to an agreement or instrument (a "Refinancing Agreement") effecting a refinancing of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to, or that otherwise extends, renews, refunds, refinances or replaces, an agreement or instrument referred to in clause (1) or (2) of this Section 4.08 or this clause (3) (an "Initial Agreement") or contained in any amendment, supplement or other modification to an Initial Agreement (an "Amendment"); provided, however, that the encumbrances and restrictions contained in any such Refinancing Agreement or Amendment taken as a whole are not materially less favorable to the Holders of the Notes than encumbrances and restrictions contained in the Initial Agreement or Initial Agreements to which such Refinancing Agreement or Amendment relates (as determined in good faith by the Company);

(4) (A) that restricts in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is subject to a lease, license or similar contract, or the assignment or transfer of any lease, license or other contract, (B) by virtue of any transfer of, agreement to transfer, option or right with respect to, or Lien on, any property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture, (C) contained in mortgages, pledges or other security agreements securing Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent restricting the transfer of the property or assets subject thereto, (D) pursuant to customary provisions restricting dispositions of real property interests set forth in any reciprocal easement agreements of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, (E) pursuant to Purchase Money Obligations that impose encumbrances or restrictions on the property or assets so acquired, (F) on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, (G) pursuant to customary provisions contained in agreements and instruments entered into in the ordinary course of business (including but not limited to leases and joint venture and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business) or (H) that arises or is agreed to in the ordinary course of business and does not detract from the value of property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in any manner material to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary;

Section 4.09 Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock.

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Asset Disposition unless

(ii) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration (including by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise) at the time of such Asset Disposition at least equal to the fair market value of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Disposition, as such fair market value may be determined (and shall be determined, to the extent such Asset Disposition or any series of related Asset Dispositions involves aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million) in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive (including as to the value of all noncash consideration),

(iii) in the case of any Asset Disposition (or series of related Asset Dispositions) at least 75% of the consideration therefor (excluding, in the case of an Asset Disposition (or series of related Asset Dispositions) of assets, any consideration by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise, that are not Indebtedness) received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of (a) cash, or (b) Designated Noncash Assets having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Noncash Assets received in consideration for Asset Dispositions pursuant to this clause (b) that are at the time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) 5% of Consolidated Tangible Assets and (y) $35.0 million at the time of receipt of such Designated Noncash Assets; and

(iv) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Company (or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) as follows:

(A) first, either (x) to the extent the Company elects, to prepay, repay or purchase Indebtedness of the Company (other than Subordinated Obligations) or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary (in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) within 365 days after the date of such Asset Disposition, or (y) to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, to reinvest in Additional Assets

(including by means of an investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with Net Available Cash received by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) within 365 days from the date of such Asset Disposition;

(B) second, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application in accordance with clause (A) above (such balance, the "Excess Proceeds"), to make an offer to purchase Notes and (to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, or is required by the terms thereof) to purchase, redeem or repay any other Indebtedness ranking pari passu in right of payment with the Notes ("Pari Passu Indebtedness"), pursuant and subject to the conditions of this Indenture and the agreements governing such other Indebtedness; and

(C) third, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application in accordance with clauses (A) and (B) above, to fund (to the extent consistent with any other applicable provision of this Indenture) any general corporate purpose (including but not limited to the repurchase, repayment or other acquisition or retirement of any Subordinated Obligations);

provided, however, that in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to clause (A)(x) or (B) above, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related loan commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.09, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to apply any Net Available Cash in accordance with this Section 4.09 except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions that is not applied in accordance with this Section 4.09 exceeds $15.0 million. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered and not withdrawn (or otherwise subject to purchase, redemption or repayment) in connection with an offer pursuant to clause (B) above exceeds the Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds will be apportioned between the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, with the portion of the Excess Proceeds payable in respect of the Notes to equal the lesser of (x) the Excess Proceeds amount multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and the outstanding principal amount of the relevant Pari Passu Indebtedness, and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn.

For the purposes of clause (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.09, the following are deemed to be cash: (1) Temporary Cash Investments and Cash Equivalents, (2) the assumption of Indebtedness of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock of the Company) or any Restricted Subsidiary and the release of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on payment of the principal amount of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition, (3) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Disposition, to the extent that the Company and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any Guarantee of payment of the principal amount of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition, (4) securities received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days after the consummation of such Asset Disposition and (5) consideration consisting of outstanding Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary which is then retired.

(b) In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of Notes pursuant to clause (iii)(B) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.09, the Company will be required to purchase Notes tendered pursuant to an offer by the Company for the Notes (the "Offer") at a purchase price of 100% of the Accreted Value thereof on the date of purchase plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase in accordance with the procedures (including prorating

in the event of oversubscription) set forth in paragraph (c) of this Section 4.09. If the aggregate purchase price of the Notes and other Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to the Offer is less than the Net Available Cash allotted to the purchase of Notes and other Pari Passu Indebtedness, the remaining Net Available Cash will available to the Company for use in accordance with clause (iii)(B) or (iii)(C) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.09. The Company shall not be required to make an Offer for Notes pursuant to this Section 4.09 if the Net Available Cash available therefor (after application of the proceeds as provided in clause (iii)(A) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.09) is less than $15.0 million for any particular Asset Disposition (which lesser amounts shall be carried forward for purposes of determining whether an Offer is required with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition).

(c) The Company will, not later than 45 days after the Company becomes obligated to make an Offer pursuant to this Section 4.09, mail a notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee stating: (1) that an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of a portion of the Notes has occurred and that such Holder has the right (subject to the prorating described below) to require the Company, to purchase a portion of such Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the Accreted Value thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to Section 3.07); (2) the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Asset Disposition; (3) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed); (4) the instruction determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 4.09, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased; and (5) the amount of the Offer. If, upon the expiration of the period for which the Offer remains open, the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the amount of the Offer, the Company will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuers so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof, shall be purchased).

(d) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 4.09. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.09, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.09 by virtue thereof.

Section 4.10 Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction or series of related transactions (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Company (an "Affiliate Transaction") unless (i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained at the time in a transaction with a Person who is not such an Affiliate and (ii) if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, the terms of such Affiliate Transaction have been approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors. For purposes of this paragraph, any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in this paragraph if (x) such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors or (y) in the event there are no Disinterested Directors, a fairness opinion is provided by a nationally recognized appraisal or investment banking firm with respect to such Affiliate Transaction.

(b) The provisions of the preceding paragraph (a) of this Section 4.10 will not apply to:

(v) any Restricted Payment Transaction,

(vi) (1) the entering into, maintaining or performance of any employment contract, collective bargaining agreement, benefit plan, program or arrangement, related trust agreement or any other similar arrangement for or with any employee, officer or director heretofore or hereafter entered into in the ordinary course of business, including vacation, health, insurance, deferred compensation, severance, retirement, savings or other similar plans, programs or arrangements, (2) the payment of compensation, performance of indemnification or contribution obligations, or any issuance, grant or award of stock, options, other equity-related interests or other securities, to employees, officers or directors in the ordinary course of business, (3) the payment of fees to directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (4) any transaction with an officer or director in the ordinary course of business not involving more than $100,000 in any one case, or (5) Management Advances and payments in respect thereof,

(vii) any transaction with the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary, or any Receivables Entity,

(x) the Transactions, all transactions in connection therewith (including but not limited to the financing thereof), and all fees or expenses paid or payable in connection with the Transactions,

(xi) any transaction in the ordinary course of business on terms not materially less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained at the time in a transaction with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Company,

(xii) any transaction in the ordinary course of business, or approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Affiliate of the Company controlled by the Company that is a joint venture or similar entity; and

(ix) any issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company, or options, warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock.

Section 4.11 Limitation on Liens. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of any other Person), whether owned on the date of this Indenture or hereafter acquired, securing any Indebtedness of the Company that by its terms is expressly subordinated in right of payment to or ranks pari passu in rights of payment with the Notes or any other Indebtedness of the Company (the "Initial Lien"), unless contemporaneously therewith effective provision is made to secure the Indebtedness due under this Indenture and the Notes equally and ratably with such obligation for so long as such obligation is so secured by such Initial Lien. Any such Lien thereby created in favor of the Notes will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) the release and discharge of the Initial Lien to which it relates, or (ii) any sale, exchange or transfer to any Person not an Affiliate of the Company of the property or assets secured by such Initial Lien.

Section 4.12 Purchase of Notes Upon a Change in Control.

(a) Upon a Change of Control Triggering Event, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of such Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the Accreted Value of such Notes on the date of repurchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to Section 3.07); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to repurchase Notes pursuant to this Section 4.12 in the event that it has exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Article 10.

(b) In the event that, at the time of such Change of Control Triggering Event, the terms of the Bank Indebtedness restrict or prohibit the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 4.12, then prior to the mailing of the notice to Holders provided for in clause (c) of this Section 4.12 but in any event not later than 30 days following the date the Company obtains actual knowledge of any Change of Control Triggering Event (unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all the Notes as provided in Article 10), the Company shall (i) repay in full all Bank Indebtedness or offer to repay in full all Bank Indebtedness and repay the Bank Indebtedness of each lender who has accepted such offer or (ii) obtain the requisite consent under the agreements governing the Bank Indebtedness to permit the repurchase of the Notes as provided for in clause (c) of this Section 4.12. The Company shall first comply with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence before it shall be required to repurchase Notes pursuant to the provisions of clause (c) of this Section 4.12. The Company's failure to comply with the provisions of (x) the first sentence of this clause (b) or (y) clause (c) of this Section 4.12 shall constitute an Event of Default described in clause (4) and not in clause (2) under Section 6.01.

(c) Unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all the Notes as set forth in Article 10, the Company shall, not later than 30 days following the date the Company obtains actual knowledge of any Change of Control Triggering Event having occurred, mail a notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee stating: (1) that a Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred or may occur and that such Holder has, or upon such occurrence will have, the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the Accreted Value of such Notes on the date of repurchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to Section 3.07); (2) the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Change of Control; (3) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed); (4) the instructions determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 4.12, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased; and (5) if such notice is mailed prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control or Change of Control Triggering Event, that such offer is conditioned on the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event.

(d) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 4.12.

Section 5.02 Successor Company Substituted. Upon any transaction involving the Company in accordance with Section 5.01, in which the Company is not the Successor Company, the Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture, and thereafter the predecessor Company shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture.

ARTICLE 6
REMEDIES

Section 6.01 Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs if:

(1) the Company defaults in any payment of interest on any Note when due, and such default continues for a period of 30 days;

(2) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of any Note when the same becomes due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required purchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise;

(3) the Company fails to comply with Article 5 and such failure continues for 30 days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 6.01;

(4) the Company fails to comply with Section 4.12 (other than a failure to purchase the Notes), and such failure continues for 30 days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 6.01;

(5) the Company fails to comply with any of its agreements in the Notes or this Indenture (other than those referred to in (1), (2), (3) and (4) above) and such failure continues for 60 days after the notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 6.01;

(6) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary fails to pay any Indebtedness within any applicable grace period after final maturity or the acceleration of any such Indebtedness by the holders thereof because of a default if the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $15,000,000 or its foreign currency equivalent;

(7) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(A) commences a voluntary case;

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;

(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(8) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that;

(A) is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or

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

(9) there is rendered any judgment or decree for the payment of money in an amount (net of any insurance or indemnity payments actually received within 90 days from the entry thereof, or to be received in respect thereof in the event any appeal thereof shall be unsuccessful) in excess of $15,000,000 or its foreign currency equivalent against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary by a court or other adjudicatory authority of competent jurisdiction that is not discharged, or bonded or insured by a third Person, if such judgment or decree remains outstanding for a period of 90 days following such judgment or decree and is not discharged, waived or stayed; or

(10) the Company fails to consummate the Common Stock Issuance and repay or cause to be repaid in full the outstanding principal amount of the Holding Loan on or before December 31, 1999.

A Default under clause (3), (4) or (5) is not an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes notify the Company (and the Trustee in the case of a notice by Holders) of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified therein after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a "Notice of Default." When a Default or an Event of Default is cured, it ceases.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officer's Certificate of any Event of Default under clause (6) or (9) and any event that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under clause (3), (4) or (5), its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

Section 6.02 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount at maturity of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, in either case specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a "notice of acceleration," may declare the Accreted Value of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon the effectiveness of such a declaration, such Accreted Value and interest will be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, then the Accreted Value of and any accrued interest on all the Outstanding Notes will ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. The Holders of a majority in principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except non-payment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of such acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes because an Event of Default specified in clause (6) of Section 6.01 shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration of the Notes and such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (including without limitation any acceleration or resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, and be of no further effect, if within 60 days after such Event of Default arose (x) the Indebtedness that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default, or (z) the default in respect of such Indebtedness that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

Section 6.03 Other Remedies; Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, but is not obligated under this Section 6.03 to, pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or 6.01(2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07.

Section 6.04 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor upon

the Notes, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07.

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.05 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Section 6.06 Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6 shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Notes and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

First: to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07;

Second: to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Notes for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and;

Third: to the Company.

Section 6.07 Limitation on Suits. No Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee in writing to pursue the remedy;

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

(4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5) the Holders of a majority in principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.

A Holder may not use this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of another Holder, to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder or to enforce any right under this Indenture except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all Holders.

Section 6.08 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the Accreted Value of and all (subject to Section 3.07) interest on such Note on the respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Dates expressed in such Note and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Dates, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture or any Note and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.12 Control by Holders. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that

(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and

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

However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. This Section 6.12 shall be in lieu of § 316(a)(1)(A) of the TIA, and such § 316(a)(1)(A) of the TIA is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture and the Notes, as permitted by the TIA.

Section 6.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences, except a Default

(1) in the payment of the principal (or Accreted Value) of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note (which may only be waived with the consent of each Holder of Notes affected), or

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 9.02 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. In case of any such waiver, the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Notes, respectively. This paragraph of this Section 6.13 shall be in lieu of § 316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA and such § 316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture and the Notes, as permitted by the TIA.

Section 6.14 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or the Notes, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant. This Section 6.14 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of payment of the principal (or Accreted Value) of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Dates expressed in such Note.

Section 6.15 Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other similar law

wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal (or Accreted Value) of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Notes contemplated herein or in the Notes or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

THE TRUSTEE

Section 7.01 Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

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

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

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, but need not verify the contents thereof.

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

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (a) of this Section 7.01; (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.12.

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

(e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.03.

Section 7.02 Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the Note Register, notice of such Default hereunder known to the Trustee unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal (or Accreted Value) of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such

notice if and so long as a committee of Trust Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.

Section 7.03 Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01:

(1) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

(2) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order thereof, and any resolution of any Person's board of directors shall be sufficiently evidenced if certified by an Officer of such Person as having been duly adopted and being in full force and effect on the date of such certificate;

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

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

(5) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;

(6) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document; and

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

Section 7.04 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except the Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1 supplied to the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes in connection with the registration of any Notes issued hereunder are and will be true and accurate subject to the qualifications set forth therein. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Notes or the proceeds thereof.

Section 7.05 May Hold Notes. The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Note Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to Section 7.08 and Section 7.13, may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Note Registrar or such other agent.

Section 7.06 Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company.

Section 7.07 Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees,

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

(2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and

(3) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on the Trustee's part, arising out of or in connection with the administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent.

Section 7.08 Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the TIA, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee with such conflicting interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the TIA and this Indenture. To the extent permitted by such Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Original Notes and Additional Notes, or a trustee under any other indenture between the Company and the Trustee.

Section 7.09 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder. The Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the TIA to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.09 and to the extent permitted by the TIA, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.09, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

Section 7.10 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 7.11.

The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 7.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

The Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company.

If at any time:

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 7.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months, or

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 7.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or

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

then, in any such case, (A) the Company may remove the Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 6.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 7.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 7.11, become the successor Trustee and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 7.11, then, subject to Section 6.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in Section 1.10. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

Section 7.11 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to above.

No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article 7.

Section 7.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation, or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any

corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article 7, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

Section 7.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the TIA regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor).

Section 7.14 Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an Authenticating Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication (or execution of a certificate of authentication) by the Trustee includes authentication (or execution of a certificate of authentication) by such Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

Section 8.01 The Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders. The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee

(1) semi-annually, not more than 15 days after each Regular Record Date, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders as of such Regular Record Date, and

(2) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished;

provided, however, that if and so long as the Trustee shall be the Note Registrar, no such list need be furnished pursuant to this Section 8.01.

Section 8.02 Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders. The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders contained in the most recent list, if any, furnished to the Trustee as provided in Section 8.01 and the names and addresses of Holders received by the Trustee in its capacity as Note Registrar; provided, however, that if and so long as the Trustee shall be the Note Registrar, the Note Register shall satisfy the requirements relating to such list. None of the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes or the Trustee or any other Person shall be under any responsibility with regard to the accuracy of such list. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 8.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

The rights of Holders to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Notes, and the corresponding rights and privileges of the Trustee, shall be as provided by the TIA.

Every Holder of Notes, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and addresses of Holders made pursuant to the TIA.

Section 8.03 Reports by Trustee. The Trustee shall transmit to Holders such reports concerning the Trustee and its actions under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to the TIA at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto. A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange upon which any Notes are listed, with the SEC and with the Company. The Company will notify the Trustee when any Notes are listed on any stock exchange.

ARTICLE 9

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT OR WAIVER

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders. Without the consent of the Holders of any Notes the Company and the Trustee may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, for any of the following purposes:

(1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency,

(2) to provide for the assumption by a successor of the obligations of the Company under this Indenture,

(3) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes,

(4) to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes, to secure the Notes, to confirm and evidence the release, termination or discharge of any Guarantee or Lien with respect to or securing the Notes when such release, termination or discharge is provided for under this Indenture,

(5) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Noteholders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company,

(6) to provide that any Indebtedness that becomes or will become an obligation of a Successor Company pursuant to a transaction governed by Article 5 (and that is not a Subordinated Obligation) is Pari Passu Indebtedness for purposes of this Indenture,

(7) to provide for or confirm the issuance of Additional Notes,

(8) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder under the Notes or this Indenture, or

(9) to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or otherwise.

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders. Subject to Section 6.08, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes), and the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes) may waive any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.02, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver, including a waiver pursuant to Section 6.13, may not:

(i) reduce the principal amount of the Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment or waiver;

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

(iii) reduce the Accreted Value or principal or extend the Stated Maturity of any Note;

(iv) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the date on which any Note may be redeemed as described in Section 10.01;

(v) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note;

(vi) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal (or Accreted Value) of and interest on such Holder's Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder's Notes; or

(vii) make any change in the amendment or waiver provisions described in this sentence.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of each Note affected thereby, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any supplemental indenture or effectiveness of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.03 Execution of Amendments, Supplements or Waivers. The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing or refusing to sign such amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and that, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other laws now or hereinafter in effect affecting creditors' rights or remedies generally and the general principles of equity (including, without limitation, standards of materiality, good faith, fair dealing and reasonableness), whether considered in a proceeding at law or at equity, such amendment, supplement or waiver is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or any Note that evidences all or any part of the same debt as the consenting Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. Subject to the following paragraph of this Section 9.04, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to such Holder's Note by notice to the Trustee or the Company received by the Trustee or the Company, as the case may be, before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officer's Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount at maturity of Notes have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver. The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver as set forth in Section 1.08.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder of Notes, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (i) through (viii) of the second paragraph of Section 9.02. In that case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind each Holder of a Note who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of such Note or any Note that evidences all or any part of the same debt as the consenting Holder's Note.

Section 9.05 Conformity with TIA. Every amendment or supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall conform to the requirements of the TIA as then in effect.

Section 9.06 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee shall (if required by the Company and in accordance with the specific direction of the Company) request the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee shall (if required by the Company and in accordance with the specific direction of the Company) place an appropriate notation on the Note about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

ARTICLE 10

REDEMPTION OF NOTES

Section 10.01 Right of Redemption. The Notes will be redeemable, at the Company's option, in whole or in part, from time to time and prior to maturity. Such redemption may be made upon notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder's registered address in accordance with Section 10.05. The Notes will be so redeemable at the following Redemption Prices (expressed as a percentage of Accreted Value), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the relevant Redemption Date (subject to Section 3.07), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on December 1 of the years set forth below:

Period	Redemption Price
1999	105	%
2000	105	%
2001	105	%
2002	108	%
2003	108	%
2004	108	%
2005	105.333	%
2006	102.667	%
2007 and thereafter	100.000	%

Section 10.02 Applicability of Article. Redemption of Notes as permitted by Section 10.01 shall be made in accordance with this Article 10.

Section 10.03 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all of the Notes, the Company shall, at least 30 days prior to the Redemption Date initially fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the Accreted Value of Notes to be redeemed.

Section 10.04 Selection by Trustee of Notes to Be Redeemed. In the case of any partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate, although no Note of $1,000 in principal amount at maturity or less will be redeemed in part.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the Accreted Value thereof to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Notes shall relate, in the case of any Note redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the Accreted Value of such Note that has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 10.05 Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption as provided in Section 10.01 shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, at such Holder's address appearing in the Note Register.

Any such notice shall state:

(1) the expected Redemption Date,

(2) the Redemption Price,

(3) if less than all Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the respective Accreted Values) of the Notes to be redeemed,

(4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Note, and that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date, and

(5) the place where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price.

Notice of such redemption of Notes to be so redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company.

The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.

Section 10.06 Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date.

Section 10.07 Notes Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in this Article 10, the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price herein specified and from and after such date (unless Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price or the Paying Agent is prohibited from paying the Redemption Price pursuant to the terms of this Indenture) such Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such Notes for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Notes shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price. Installments of interest whose Interest Payment Date is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes registered as such on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07.

On and after any Redemption Date, if money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and any accrued and unpaid interest on Notes called for redemption shall have been made available in accordance with Section 10.06, the Notes (or the portions thereof) called for redemption will cease to accrue interest and the only right of the Holders of such Notes (or portions thereof) will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price of and subject to the last sentence of the preceding paragraph of this Section 10.07, any accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes (or portions thereof) to the Redemption Date. If any Note (or portion thereof) called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Note (or portion thereof).

Section 10.08 Notes Redeemed in Part. Any Note that is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at the Place of Payment (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered.

ARTICLE 11

(2) the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee an amount in money, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee cancelled or for cancellation, for principal (or Accreted Value) of, and premium (if any) and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Notes that have become due and payable), or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

(3) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums then payable hereunder by the Company; and

(4) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this Section 11.01 relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with, provided that any such counsel may rely on any Officer's Certificate as to matters of fact (including as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (1), (2) and (3)).

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 7.07 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (2) of this Section 11.01, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 11.02, shall survive.

Section 11.02 Application of Trust Money.

ARTICLE 12

DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 12.01 The Company's Option to Elect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may, at its option, at any time, elect to have terminated the obligations of the Company with respect to the Outstanding Notes as set forth in this Article 12, and elect to have either Section 12.02 or Section 12.03 be applied to all of the Outstanding Notes (the "Defeased Notes"), upon compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 12.04. Either Section 12.02 or Section 12.03 may be applied to the Defeased Notes to any Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity of the Notes.

Section 12.02 Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company's exercise under Section 12.01 of the option applicable to this Section 12.02, the Company shall be deemed to have been released and discharged from its obligations with respect to the Defeased Notes on the date the relevant conditions set forth in Section 12.04 below are satisfied (hereinafter, "Defeasance"). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Defeased Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 12.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied all other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture insofar as such Notes are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following, which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of Defeased Notes to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 12.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Company's obligations with respect to such Defeased Notes under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 4.02 and 4.03, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and

immunities of the Trustee hereunder, including the Trustee's rights under Section 7.07, and (d) this Article 12. Subject to compliance with this Article 12, the Company may, at its option and at any time, exercise its option under this Section 12.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 12.03 with respect to the Notes.

Section 12.03 Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company's exercise under Section 12.01 of the option applicable to this Section 12.03, (a) the Company shall be released from its obligations under any covenant or provision contained in Section 4.04 and Sections 4.06 through 4.12 and the provisions of clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 5.01 shall not apply, and (b) the occurrence of any event specified in clause (3) (with respect to clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 5.01), (4) or (5) (with respect to Section 4.04, Sections 4.06 through 4.12, inclusive, and any such covenants provided pursuant to Section 9.01(5)), inclusive, (6),(7) or (8) (with respect to Subsidiaries) or (10) of Section 6.01 shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Defeased Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, "Covenant Defeasance"), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not to be "Outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants or provisions, but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant or provision, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or provision or by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or provision, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or provision or by reason of any reference in any such covenant or provision to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Outstanding Notes shall be unaffected thereby.

Section 12.04 Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 12.02 or Section 12.03 to the Outstanding Notes:

(1) The Company shall have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee in trust money, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized accounting or investment banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Defeased Notes on the Stated Maturity or relevant Redemption Date in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Notes;

(2) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as Section 6.01(7) or 6.01(8) is concerned, at any time during the period ending on the ninety-first day after the date of such deposit;

(3) Such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default or Event of Default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound;

(4) In the case of an election under Section 12.02, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from Debevoise & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or other counsel to the effect that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (y) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm to the effect that, the Holders of the Outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such Defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Defeasance had not occurred;

(5) In the case of an election under Section 12.03, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from Debevoise & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or other counsel to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; and

(6) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this Section 12.04 relating to either the Defeasance under Section 12.02 or the Covenant Defeasance under Section 12.03, as the case may be, have been complied with. In rendering such Opinion of Counsel, counsel may rely on any Officer's Certificate as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (1),(2) and (3) of this Section 12.04 or as to any matters of fact.

Section 12.05 Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations To Be Held in Trust: Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 4.03, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or such other Person that would qualify to act as successor trustee under Article 7, collectively and solely for purposes of this Section 12.05, the "Trustee") pursuant to Section 12.04 in respect of the Defeased Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee and its agents and hold them harmless against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 12.04 or the principal, premium, if any, and interest received in respect thereof, other than any such tax, fee or other charge that by law is for the account of the Holders of the Defeased Notes.

Anything in this Article 12 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 12.04 that, in the opinion of a nationally recognized accounting or investment banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Subject to Article 7, the Trustee shall not incur any liability to any Person by relying on such opinion.

Section 12.06 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 12.02 or 12.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations of the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.02 or 12.03, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money and U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 12.02 or 12.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that if either the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes makes any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, then the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money and U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Section 12.07 Repayment to the Company. The Trustee shall pay to the Company upon Company Request any money held by it for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two

years. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person and all liability of the Trustee or Paying Agent with respect to such money shall thereupon cease.

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

This Note will accrete at a rate of 16% per annum, compounded semi-annually, to an aggregate principal amount of $75,433,255.15 by December 1, 2004. Thereafter, the Company promises to pay interest semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 in each year, commencing June 1, 2005 at the rate of 16% per annum [(subject to adjustment as provided below)]⁵ [,except that interest accrued on this Note for periods prior to the date on which the Initial Note was surrendered in exchange for this Note will accrue at the rate or rates borne by such Initial Note from time to time during such periods]⁶, until the Principal Amount is paid or made available for payment. Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest on this Note or any of its Predecessor Notes has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from December 1, 2004.

▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇^▇▇ ▇▇., ▇▇^▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

Dear Sirs:

This Agreement is made pursuant to the Loan Agreement, dated November 19, 1999, (the "Loan Agreement"), by and among NA Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company") and Blue Ridge Investments LLC and Chase Securities Inc., (the "Lenders"). In order to induce the Lenders to lend $35,000,000 in initial aggregate proceeds (the "Loan") to the Company, which Loan may, at any time after December 1, 1999 and prior to the date that is 90 days after the date of the Loan Agreement, be exchanged by all Lenders for 16% Senior Discount Notes due 2009 of the Company (the "Initial Securities") pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide the registration rights set forth in this Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning assigned to them in the form of the indenture, attached as Exhibit A to the Loan Agreement, relating to the Initial Securities and the Exchange Securities (as defined below) (the "Indenture").

The Company agrees with the Lenders, for the benefit of the registered owners of the Initial Securities (including, without limitation, the Lenders), the Exchange Securities (as defined below) and the Private Exchange Securities (as defined below) (collectively the "Holders"), as follows:

1. Registered Exchange Offer. The Company shall, at its own cost, prepare and use all commercially reasonable best efforts to, not later than 120 days (or if the 120th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the date of original issue of the Initial Securities (the "Issue Date"), file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") a registration statement (the "Exchange Offer Registration Statement") on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), with respect to a proposed offer (the "Registered Exchange Offer") to those Holders of Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof) who are not prohibited by any law or policy of interpretation of the Commission or its staff from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Initial Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the "Exchange Securities") of the Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the Initial Securities (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial Securities and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act within 210 days (or if the 210th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the Issue Date of the Initial Securities and to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 10 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the "Exchange Offer Registration Period"). For purposes hereof, "business day" shall mean any day other than a Saturday or Sunday, and other than a holiday on which the Commission shall not be open for the transaction of business.

If the Company effects the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company will be entitled to close the Registered Exchange Offer on the last day of the Exchange Offer Registration Period, provided that

the Company has accepted all the Initial Securities theretofore validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Registered Exchange Offer.

Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly commence the Registered Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to enable each Holder of Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities electing to exchange the Initial Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such Holder's business and has no arrangements with any person to participate in the distribution of Exchange Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy or interpretation of the Commission or its staff from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the Securities Act.

The Company and the Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission's staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, (i) each Holder that is a broker-dealer electing to exchange Initial Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer, acquired for its own account as a result of market making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Securities (a "Participating Broker-Dealer"), is required to deliver a prospectus containing information substantially to the effect set forth in Annex A hereto, Annex B hereto and Annex C hereto in the appropriate sections of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Participating Broker-Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and (ii) a Lender that elects to sell Private Exchange Securities (as defined below) acquired in exchange for Initial Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in connection with such sale.

The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such prospectus to be delivered by dealers subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of Section 4(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder (for such period of time as shall be required thereby for such delivery in order to resell the Exchange Securities), and shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto available to any Participating Broker-Dealer for use in connection with any resale of any Exchange Securities, in either case for a period of not more than 90 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer.

If, upon consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, any Lender holds Initial Securities acquired by it as part of its initial distribution, the Company, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, shall issue and deliver to such Lender upon the written request of such Lender, in exchange (the "Private Exchange") for the Initial Securities held by such Lender, a like principal amount of debt securities of the Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects (including the existence of restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the securities laws of the several states of the United States, but excluding provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) to the Initial Securities (the "Private Exchange Securities"). The Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities are herein collectively called the "Securities".

In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall:

(a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents;

(b) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than 10 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders;

(c) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee;

(d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and

(e) otherwise comply in all material respects with all applicable securities laws.

As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Company shall:

(x) accept for exchange all the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the Private Exchange;

(y) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all the Initial Securities so accepted for exchange; and

(z) request the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder of such Initial Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to such Initial Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange.

The Indenture will provide that all the Securities will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a class separate from one another on any matter.

Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and in the Private Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date to which interest was paid or duly provided for on the Initial Securities surrendered in exchange therefor (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities, from the Issue Date provided that if an Initial Security is surrendered for exchange on or after a record date for an interest payment date that will occur on or after the date of such exchange and as to which interest will be paid, interest on the Exchange Security received in exchange therefor will accrue from the date of such interest payment date.

Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Securities to be received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (ii) such Holder has no arrangements or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Initial Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Company or if it is an affiliate, such Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Securities, (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities, and (vi) that it is not acting on behalf of any person who could not truthfully make the foregoing representations.

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a

material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Upon consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer in accordance with this Section 1 (whether or not the actions or events specified in the first sentence of this Section 1 occur within the time periods specified therefor) the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to apply (to the extent applicable) solely with respect to Securities that (i) were not eligible to be exchanged in the Registered Exchange Offer (other than due to the status of the Holder thereof as an affiliate of the Company or due to such Holder's inability to make the representations referred to in the third to last paragraph of this Section 1) and have not been exchanged for Private Exchange Securities, (ii) were received by the Holder thereof (other than a Participating Broker-Dealer) in the Registered Exchange Offer but are not freely tradeable on the date of such exchange (other than due to the status of such Holder as an affiliate of the Company or due to such Holder's inability to make the representations referred to in the third to last paragraph of this Section 1) or (iii) are Private Exchange Securities and Exchange Securities held by Participating Broker-Dealers, and the Company shall have no further obligation to register Securities (other than those Securities referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above and Private Exchange Securities) pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement.

2. Shelf Registration. If, (i) because of any change in law or in applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission, the Company is not permitted to effect a Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by Section 1 hereof, (ii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within 270 days of the Issue Date, (iii) any Lender so requests with respect to the Initial Securities (or the Private Exchange Securities) not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer and held by it following consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer or (iv) any Holder (other than the Lenders or a Participating Broker-Dealer) is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer or, in the case of any Holder (other than the Lenders or a Participating Broker-Dealer) that participates in the Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder does not receive freely tradeable Exchange Securities on the date of the exchange (other than, in either case, due solely to the status of such Holder as an affiliate of the Company or due to such Holder's inability to make the representations referred to in the third to last paragraph of Section 1 hereof), the Company shall take the following actions:

(a) The Company shall, at its cost, use its reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission as promptly as reasonably practicable, and thereafter shall use its reasonable best efforts to be declared effective within 270 days after the Issue Date, a registration statement (the "Shelf Registration Statement" and, together with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a "Registration Statement") on an appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the "Shelf Registration"); provided, however, that no Holder shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder (and each Lender hereby so agrees).

(b) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period (the "Shelf Registration Period") of two years (or one year in the case of a shelf registration effected at the request of the Lenders) from the Issue Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities covered by

the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) are distributed to the public pursuant to the Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any successor rule thereof or become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor rule thereof) without volume restriction, if any. The Company shall be deemed not to have used its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Securities during that period, unless (i) such action is required by applicable law, (ii) such action is taken by the Company in good faith and for valid business reasons (not including avoidance of the Company's obligations hereunder), including the acquisition or divestiture of assets, so long as the Company promptly thereafter complies with the requirements of Section 3(j) hereof, if applicable, or (iii) such action occurs following consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (in any such case, other than with respect to information included therein in reliance upon or in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Holder specifically for use therein).

3. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the extent applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply:

(a) The Company shall (i) furnish to each Lender, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein and, in the event that a Lender (with respect to any portion of an unsold allotment from the original offering) is participating in the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to reflect in each such Shelf Registration Statement or related amendment or supplement, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as such Lender reasonably may propose, (ii) if applicable, include information substantially to the effect set forth in Annex A hereto, Annex B hereto and Annex C hereto in the appropriate sections of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and include information substantially to the effect set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, (iii) in the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, if requested by a Lender that proposes to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement as a selling securityholder, include the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus forming a part of the Shelf Registration Statement, (iv) include within the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, in a section entitled "Plan of Distribution" or other appropriate heading, a summary statement reasonably acceptable to the Lenders, of the positions taken or policies made by the staff of the Commission with respect to the potential "underwriter" status of any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) of Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer, and (v) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include the names of the Holders who propose to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement as selling securityholders (the "Selling Holders").

(b) The Company shall advise each of the Lenders, the Selling Holders (in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement) and any Participating Broker-Dealer (in the case of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement) from whom the Company has received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer, and, if requested by any such person, confirm such advice in writing (which advice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied (if applicable) by an instruction to suspend the use of the relevant prospectus until the requisite changes have been made):

(i) when the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;

(ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;

(iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose;

(iv) of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

(v) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in the Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the Registration Statement (as of its effective date) or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.

(c) The Company shall make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

(d) The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference).

(e) The Company shall deliver to each Participating Broker-Dealer (on request) and each Lender, without charge, at least one copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if any Lender requests, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference).

(f) The Company shall, during the Shelf Registration Period, deliver to each Selling Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use (in accordance with this Agreement and applicable law) of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the Selling Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement.

(g) The Company shall, during the Exchange Offer Registration Period, deliver to each Lender, and any Participating Broker-Dealer, without charge, as many copies of the final

prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, during the 90 days following the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, by any Participating Broker-Dealer required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer Registration Statement.

(h) Prior to any public offering of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Selling Holders of the Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such states of the United States as any such Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or (ii) take any action that would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

(i) The Company shall cooperate with the Selling Holders of the Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Transfer Restricted Securities to be sold pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends relating to transfer restrictions (and not required by stock exchange rule or depository rule or usage) and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may reasonably request in writing a reasonable period of time prior to sales of such Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement.

(j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly prepare and file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not contain an 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Lenders, the Selling Holders of the Securities or any known Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the Lenders, such Holders of the Securities or any such Participating Broker-Dealer, as applicable, shall suspend use of such prospectus. The period of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement provided for in Section 2(b) above or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above, as applicable, shall be extended by the number of days from and including the date of giving of such notice to and including the date when the Company shall have mailed to the Selling Holders of the Securities or any known Participating Broker-Dealer, as applicable, such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(j).

(k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide a CUSIP number for the Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be. The Company will, at appropriate times, provide the applicable trustee with printed certificates for the Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities or the

Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

(l) The Company will make generally available to its securityholders (or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act (which need not be audited), no later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company's first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such 12-month period.

(m) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provision of the Indenture.

(n) The Company may require each Holder of Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request.

(o) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and use its reasonable best efforts to take all such other action, if any, as Selling Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities being sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement (the "Majority Selling Holders") or the managing underwriters, if any, in such offering shall reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement.

(p) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by a representative of, and Special Counsel (as defined below) acting for, the Majority Selling Holders and any underwriter participating in any disposition of Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement (such representative, Special Counsel or underwriter, an "Inspector"), all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Company's officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by such Inspector in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable such persons to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act; provided, however, that the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall be coordinated by the Inspectors. Each Inspector will be required to agree in writing, pursuant to a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and such Inspector, that (i) information obtained by such Inspector as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by such Inspector as the basis for any market transactions in the securities of any of the Company and its subsidiaries unless and until such information is made generally available to the public (other than by or through any Inspector) and (ii) such Inspector will, upon learning that disclosure of such records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the records deemed confidential.

(q) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company, if requested by the Majority Selling Holders of Securities covered thereby, shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion relating to the Securities in customary form, addressed to the Selling Holders of Securities covered thereby, (ii) its officers to execute and deliver all customary documents and certificates reasonably requested by any managing underwriters of the applicable Securities and (iii) its independent public accountants to provide a comfort letter in customary form addressed to the Selling Holders of Securities covered thereby, subject to receipt of appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by Statement of Auditing Standards No.72.

(r) If a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Initial Securities by Holders to the Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall ▇▇▇▇, or caused to be marked, on the Initial Securities so exchanged that such Initial Securities are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be; in no event shall the Initial Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied.

4. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1 through 3 hereof, whether or not the Registered Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration Statement is filed or becomes effective, and, in the event of a Shelf Registration Statement, shall reimburse the Holders of the Securities covered thereby for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities covered thereby (the "Special Counsel") to act as counsel for the Holders of the Securities in connection therewith. The Lenders shall bear any fees and expenses of their counsel incurred in connection with the Registered Exchange Offer.

5. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement) each Selling Holder of Securities covered thereby and each person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and (in the case of an Exchange Offer Registration Statement, in connection with any delivery of the prospectus contained therein by a Participating Broker-Dealer) any Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each such Holder, any such Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred to collectively as the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such applicable Registration Statement or prospectus forming part thereof or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (in the case of such Shelf Registration Statement) in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration Statement, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus forming part thereof or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such

Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration Statement, the indemnity contained in this subsection (a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased the Securities concerned if either (x) a copy of the final prospectus (as then amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) was not seen or given by or on behalf of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer to such person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Securities to such person, and any such untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or any such omission or alleged omission of a material fact from, such preliminary prospectus, prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto giving rise to such losses, claims, damages or liabilities was corrected in the final prospectus (as so amended and supplemented), unless such failure is the result of noncompliance by the Company with the first sentence of Section 3(f) hereof or (y) at the time of such purchase such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer had received advice from the Company that the use of such prospectus, amendment, supplement or preliminary prospectus was suspended as provided in Section 3(b); provided further, however, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have to such Indemnified Party.

(b) Each Holder of the Securities, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus forming part thereof or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that such Holder may otherwise have to the Company or any of its controlling persons.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other expenses, other than

reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in which any indemnified party is a party to the extent such settlement is binding upon such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim that is the subject of this subsection (d). 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 subsection (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

(e) The agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

6. Additional Interest Under Certain Circumstances. (a) Additional interest (the "Additional Interest") with respect to the Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (ii) below being herein referred to as a "Registration Default"):

(i) neither the Exchange Offer Registration Statement nor a Shelf Registration Statement has been filed with the Commission on or before the 120th day after the Issue Date (or if such day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter);

(ii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated on or before the 240th day after the Issue Date (or if such day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter);

(iii) if a Shelf Registration Statement is required to be filed under this Agreement, such Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or before the

270th day after the Issue Date (or if such day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter), or, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement required to be filed in response to any change in applicable interpretation of the Commission, if later, on or before the 90th day after publication of such change; or

(iv) if a Shelf Registration Statement is required to be filed under this Agreement, and after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective and during the period that the Company is required to use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective as provided in Section 2(a), such Shelf Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective and continues not to be effective (other than in connection with the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by the last sentence of Section 2(a)), or the Company shall have suspended and be continuing to suspend the availability of the prospectus contained in the Shelf Registration Statement, for more than 30 days in the aggregate in any consecutive twelve-month period.

Additional Interest shall initially accrue on the Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Securities from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which such Registration Default has been cured, at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the Accreted Value. The rate of Additional Interest shall increase by 0.25% per annum of the Accreted Value every twelve weeks thereafter (for so long as such period is continuing). Any such Additional Interest shall not exceed such respective rates for such respective periods, and shall not in any event exceed 0.50% per annum of the Accreted Value in the aggregate, regardless of the number of Registration Defaults that shall have occurred and be continuing. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults, the accrual of such Additional Interest will cease. All Registration Defaults will be deemed cured upon consummation of the Exchange Offer.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6(a), the Company shall not be required to pay Additional Interest to any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities if such Holder failed to comply with its obligations to make the representations set forth in the third to last paragraph of Section 1 or failed to provide the information required to be provided by it, if any, pursuant to Section 3(n).

(b) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 6(a) above will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Initial Securities. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360.

(c) "Transfer Restricted Securities" means each Security until (i) the date on which such Security has been exchanged by a person for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) the date on which such Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iii) the date on which such Security is distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or otherwise is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor provision) under the Securities Act without volume restriction, if any).

7. Rules 144 and 144A. So long as any Transfer Restricted Securities remain outstanding, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner or, upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities, make publicly available other information so long as

necessary to permit sales of such Securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A under the Securities Act. The Company covenants that it will use its reasonable best efforts to take such further action as any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell such Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). Upon the written request of any Holder of Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act.

8. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering, subject to the consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and such Holders shall be responsible for all underwriting commissions and discounts in connection therewith.

No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Amendments and Waivers.

Annex A

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 90 days after the Expiration Date (as defined herein), it will make this Prospectus available to any Participating Broker-Dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See "Plan of Distribution."

Annex B

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities, where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See "Plan of Distribution."

Annex C

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a Participating Broker-Dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 90 days after the Expiration Date, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any Participating Broker-Dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until , all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus.

The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act.

For a period of 90 days after the Expiration Date the Company will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any Participating Broker-Dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incurred by it incident to the Exchange Offer other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
