the Company are sold to an underwriter(s) for reoffering to the public.

2.     Exchange Offer

            (a) Each of the Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally
agrees to use its best efforts to file with the SEC as soon as practicable after
the Closing, but in no event later than the Filing Date, documents pertaining to
an offer to exchange (the "Exchange Offer") any and all of the Registrable Notes
for a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities of the Company,
guaranteed by the Guarantors, which are identical in all material respects to
the Notes (the "Exchange Notes") (and which are entitled to the benefits of the
Indenture or a trust indenture which is substantially identical to the Indenture
(other than such changes to the Indenture or any such identical trust indenture
as are necessary to comply with any requirements of the SEC to effect or
maintain the qualification thereof under the TIA) and which, in either case, has
been qualified under the TIA), except that the Exchange Notes shall have been
registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act and will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions.  The
documents pertaining to the Exchange Offer will be filed under the Securities
Act on the appropriate form (the "Exchange Registration Statement") and the
Exchange Offer will comply with all applicable tender offer rules and
regulations under the Exchange Act.  Each of the Company and the Guarantors
jointly and severally agrees to use its best efforts to (x) cause the Exchange
Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act on or before
the Effectiveness Date; (y) keep the Exchange Offer open for at least 30 days
(or longer if required by applicable law) after the date that notice of the
Exchange Offer is mailed to Holders; and (z) consummate the Exchange Offer on or
prior to the 150th day (or, in the event of any extension of the Exchange Offer
required by applicable law, the earliest day following any such extension)
following the Issue Date.  Each Holder who participates in the Exchange Offer
will be required to represent that any Exchange Notes received by it will be
acquired in the ordinary course of its business, that at the time of the
consummation of the Exchange Offer such Holder will have no arrangement or
understanding with any Person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange
Notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act, that such Holder is
not an affiliate of any of the Company or the Guarantors within the meaning of
Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act or if it is such an affiliate,
that it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements
of the Securities




   8

                                      -6-


Act, to the extent applicable and that is not acting on behalf of any Person
who could not truthfully make the foregoing representations.  Upon consummation
of the Exchange Offer in accordance with this Section 2, the provisions of this
Agreement shall continue to apply, mutatis mutandis, solely with respect to
Registrable Notes that are Private Exchange Notes and Exchange Notes held by
Participating Broker-Dealers, and the Company and the Guarantors shall have no
further obligation to register Registrable Notes (other than Private Exchange
Notes and Exchange Notes held by Participating Broker-Dealers) pursuant to
Section 3 of this Agreement.

            (b) The Company and the Guarantors shall include within the
Prospectus contained in the Exchange Registration Statement a section entitled
"Plan of Distribution,"reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchasers, which
shall contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the
staff of the SEC with respect to the potential "underwriter" status of any
broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated
under the Exchange Act) of Exchange Notes received by such broker-dealer in the
Exchange Offer (a "Participating Broker-Dealer"), whether such positions or
policies have been publicly disseminated by the staff of the SEC or such
positions or policies, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchasers,
represent the prevailing views of the staff of the SEC.  Such "Plan of
Distribution" section shall also allow the use of the Prospectus by all Persons
subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including
all Participating Broker-Dealers, and include a statement describing the means
by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Notes.

            Each of the Company and the Guarantors shall use its best efforts to
keep the Exchange Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement
the Prospectus contained therein in order to permit such Prospectus to be
lawfully delivered by all Persons subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such Persons must
comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Notes, provided
that such period shall not exceed 180 days (or such longer period if extended
pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 5) (the "Applicable Period").

            If, prior to consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Initial
Purchasers hold any Notes acquired by them and having, or which are reasonably
likely to be determined to have, the status as an unsold allotment in the
initial distribution, the Company and the Guarantors upon the request of such
Initial




   9

                                      -7-


Purchasers shall, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Notes in the
Exchange Offer, issue and deliver to such Initial Purchasers, in exchange (the
"Private Exchange") for the Notes held by such Initial Purchasers, a like
principal amount of debt securities of the Company guaranteed by the
Guarantors, that are identical in all material respects to the Exchange Notes
(the "Private Exchange Notes") (and which are issued pursuant to the same
indenture as the Exchange Notes) except for the placement of a restrictive
legend on the Private Exchange Notes.  If possible, the Private Exchange Notes
shall bear the same CUSIP number as the Exchange Notes.  Interest on the
Exchange Notes and Private Exchange Notes will accrue from (A) the later of (i)
the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Notes
surrendered in exchange therefor or (ii) if the Notes are surrendered for
exchange on a date in a period which includes the record date for an interest
payment date to occur on or after the date of such exchange and as to which
interest will be paid, the date of such interest payment date or (B) if no
interest has been paid on the Notes, from the Issue Date.

            In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company and the
Guarantors shall:

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

            (ii) utilize the services of a depositary for the Exchange Offer
       with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; and

            (iii) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Notes at any time prior to
       the close of business, New York City time, on the last business day on
       which the Exchange Offer shall remain open.

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

            (i) accept for exchange all Notes tendered and not validly withdrawn
       pursuant to the Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange;

            (ii) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Notes so accepted
       for exchange; and





   10

                                      -8-


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

            The Exchange Notes and the Private Exchange Notes may be issued
under (i) the Indenture or (ii) an indenture substantially identical to the
Indenture, which in either event will provide that (1) the Exchange Notes will
not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture and (2)
the Private Exchange Notes will be subject to the transfer restrictions set
forth in the Indenture.  The Indenture or such indenture shall provide that the
Exchange Notes, the Private Exchange Notes and the Notes will have the right to
vote and give consents together on all matters presented to such holders for
votes or consents as one class and that neither the Exchange Notes, the Private
Exchange Notes nor the Notes will have the right to vote or consent as a
separate class on any matter.

            (c) If (1) prior to the consummation of the Exchange Offer, the
Company and the Guarantors or Holders of at least a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Registrable Notes reasonably determine in good faith
that (i) the Exchange Notes would not, upon receipt, be freely transferable by
such Holders which are not affiliates (within the meaning of the Securities Act)
of the Company or the Guarantors without restriction under the Securities Act
and without restrictions under applicable state securities laws, (ii) the
interests of the Holders under this Agreement would be adversely affected by the
consummation of the Exchange Offer or (iii) after conferring with counsel, the
SEC is unlikely to permit the commencement of the Exchange Offer prior to the
Effectiveness Date, (2) subsequent to the consummation of the Private Exchange,
any holder of the Private Exchange Notes so requests or (3) the Exchange Offer
is commenced and not consummated within 150 days of the Issue Date, then the
Company and the Guarantors shall promptly deliver to the Holders and the Trustee
written notice thereof (the "Shelf Notice") and shall file an Initial Shelf
Registration pursuant to Section 3.  Following the delivery of a Shelf Notice to
the Holders of Registrable Notes (in the circumstances contemplated by clauses
(1) and (3) of the preceding sentence), the Company and the Guarantors shall not
have any further obligation to conduct the Exchange Offer or the Private
Exchange under this Section 2.





   11

                                      -9-


3.     Shelf Registration

            If a Shelf Notice is required to be delivered as contemplated by
Section 2(c), then:

            (a) Initial Shelf Registration.  The Company and the Guarantors
shall prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement for an offering to
be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the then
existing Registrable Notes (the "Initial Shelf Registration").  If the Company
and the Guarantors shall have not yet filed an Exchange Registration Statement,
each of the Company and the Guarantors shall use its best efforts to file with
the SEC the Initial Shelf Registration on or prior to the Filing Date.  In any
other instance, each of the Company and the Guarantors shall use its best
efforts to file with the SEC the Initial Shelf Registration as promptly as
practicable following delivery of the Shelf Notice.  The Initial Shelf
Registration shall be on Form S-3 or another appropriate form permitting
registration of such Registrable Notes for resale by such Holders in the manner
or manners designated by them (including, without limitation, one or more
underwritten offerings).  The Company and the Guarantors shall not permit any
securities other than the Registrable Notes to be included in the Initial Shelf
Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration.  Each of the Company and the
Guarantors shall use its best efforts to cause the Initial Shelf Registration to
be declared effective under the Securities Act, if an Exchange Registration
Statement has not yet been declared effective, on or prior to the Effectiveness
Date, or, in any other instance, as soon as practicable after the filing thereof
and in no event later than 90 days following delivery of the Shelf Notice, and
to keep the Initial Shelf Registration continuously effective under the
Securities Act until the date which is 24 months from the date on which such
Initial Shelf Registration is declared effective (subject to extension pursuant
to the last paragraph of Section 5 hereof), or such shorter period ending when
all Registrable Notes covered by the Initial Shelf Registration have been sold
in the manner set forth and as contemplated in the Initial Shelf Registration
(the "Effectiveness Period").

            (b) Subsequent Shelf Registrations.  If the Initial Shelf
Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration ceases to be effective for any
reason at any time prior to the termination of the Effectiveness Period, each of
the Company and the Guarantors shall use its best efforts to promptly restore
the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall, within 45 days of such
cessation of effectiveness, amend the Shelf Registra-




   12

                                      -10-


tion in a manner reasonably expected to restore the effectiveness thereof, or
file an additional "shelf" Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering
all of the then existing Registrable Notes (a "Subsequent Shelf Registration").
If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, each of the Company and the
Guarantors shall use its best efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf
Registration to be declared effective as soon as practicable after such filing
and to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective during the
Effectiveness Period.  As used herein the term  "Shelf Registration" means the
Initial Shelf Registration and any Subsequent Shelf Registration.

            (c) Supplements and Amendments.  The Company and the Guarantors
shall promptly supplement and amend the Shelf Registration if required by the
rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used for
such Shelf Registration or if required by the Securities Act.  The Company and
the Guarantors shall promptly supplement and amend the Shelf Registration if any
such supplement or amendment is reasonably requested by the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes covered by such
Registration Statement or by any underwriter(s) of such Registrable Notes.

4.     Additional Interest

            (a) The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that the Holders of
Registrable Notes will suffer damages if the Company fails to fulfill its
obligations under Section 2 or Section 3 hereof and that it would not be
feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision.  Accordingly,
the Company agrees to pay additional interest on the Notes ("Additional
Interest") under the circumstances and to the extent set forth below:

            (i) if neither the Exchange Registration Statement nor the Initial
       Shelf Registration has been filed on or prior to the Filing Date;

            (ii) if neither the Exchange Registration Statement nor the Initial
       Shelf Registration has been declared effective on or prior to the
       Effectiveness Date;

            (iii) if an Initial Shelf Registration required by Section 2(c)(2)
       has not been filed on or prior to the date 45 days after delivery of the
       Shelf Notice;





   13

                                      -11-


            (iv) if an Initial Shelf Registration required by Section 2(c)(2)
       has not been declared effective on or prior to the date 90 days after the
       delivery of the Shelf Notice; and/or

            (v) if (A) the Company has not exchanged the Exchange Notes for all
       Notes validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer
       on or prior to the date 150 days after the Issue Date or (B) the Exchange
       Registration Statement ceases to be effective at any time prior to the
       time that the Exchange Offer is consummated or (C) if applicable, the
       Shelf Registration has been declared effective and such Shelf
       Registration ceases to be effective at any time prior to the termination
       of the Effectiveness Period;

(each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (v) above is a
"Registration Default").  The sole remedy available to Holders of the Notes for
a Registration Default will be the accrual of Additional Interest as follows:
the per annum interest rate on the Notes will increase by .50% during the first
90-day period following the occurrence of a Registration Default and until it
is waived or cured; and the per annum interest rate will increase by an
additional .25% for each subsequent 90-day period during which the Registration
Default remains uncured, up to a maximum additional interest rate of 2.0% per
annum, provided, however, that only Holders of Private Exchange Notes shall be
entitled to receive Additional Interest as a result of a Registration Default
pursuant to clause (iii) or (iv), provided, further, that (1) upon the filing
of the Exchange Registration Statement or the Initial Shelf Registration (in
the case of (i) above), (2) upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Registration
Statement or a Shelf Registration (in the case of (ii) above), (3) upon the
filing of the Shelf Registration (in the case of (iii) above), (4) upon the
effectiveness of the Shelf Registration (in the case of (iv) above), or (5)
upon the exchange of Exchange Notes for all Notes tendered or the effectiveness
of a Shelf Registration (in the case of (v)(A) above), or upon the subsequent
effectiveness of the Exchange Registration Statement which had ceased to remain
effective or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration (in the case of (v)(B)
above), or upon the subsequent effectiveness of the Shelf Registration which
had ceased to remain effective (in the case of (v)(C) above), Additional
Interest on the Notes as a result of such clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v)
(or the relevant subclause thereof), as the case may be, shall cease to accrue
and the interest rate on the Notes will revert to the interest rate originally
borne by the Notes.

                                      -12-


            (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Additional Interest will be
payable with respect to a Registration Default described in clause (v)(C) above,
if pending a material corporate transaction, the Company issues a notice that
the Registration Statement, or the prospectus contained therein, is unusable, or
such notice is required under applicable securities laws to be issued by the
Company, and the aggregate number of days in any consecutive twelve month period
for which the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus contained therein, is
unusable pursuant to all such notices has not exceeded 75 days in the aggregate.

            (c) The Company and the Guarantors shall notify the Trustee within
one business day after each and every date on which an event occurs in respect
of which Additional Interest is required to be paid (an "Event Date").  Any
amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to (a)(i), (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) of
this Section 4 will be payable in cash semi-annually on each January 15 and July
15 (to the Holders of record on the January 1 and July 1 immediately preceding
such dates), commencing with the first such date occurring after any such
Additional Interest commences to accrue and until such Registration Default is
cured, by depositing with the Trustee, in trust for the benefit of such Holders,
immediately available funds in sums sufficient to pay such Additional Interest.
The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the
applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Registrable
Notes, 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, in the case
of a partial month, the actual number of days elapsed), and the denominator of
which is 360.

5.     Registration Procedures

            In connection with the filing of any Registration Statement pursuant
to Section 2 or 3 hereof, the Company and the Guarantors shall effect such
registrations to permit the sale of the securities covered thereby in accordance
with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto
the Company and the Guarantors shall:

            (a) Prepare and file with the SEC, as provided herein, a
       Registration Statement or Registration Statements as prescribed by
       Section 2 or 3, and use their respective best efforts to cause each such
       Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as pro-




   15

                                      -13-


       vided herein, provided that, if (1) such filing is pursuant to Section 3,
       or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
       pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities
       Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes
       during the Applicable Period, before filing any Registration Statement or
       Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company and the
       Guarantors shall, if requested, furnish to and afford the Holders of the
       Registrable Notes covered by such Registration Statement and each such
       Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, their counsel and the
       managing underwriter(s), if any, a reasonable opportunity to review
       copies of all such documents (including copies of any documents to be
       incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits thereto) proposed to
       be filed (to the extent practicable, at least 5 business days prior to
       such filing).  The Company and the Guarantors shall not file any
       Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements
       thereto in respect of which the Holders must be afforded an opportunity
       to review prior to the filing of such document, if the Holders of a
       majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes covered
       by such Registration Statement, or such Participating Broker-Dealer, as
       the case may be, their counsel, or the managing underwriter(s), if any,
       reasonably object to information concerning the Holders or such
       Participating Broker-Dealer contained therein.

            (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective
       amendments to each Shelf Registration or Exchange Registration Statement,
       as the case may be, as may be necessary to keep such Registration
       Statement continuously effective for the Effectiveness Period or the
       Applicable Period, as the case may be; cause the related Prospectus to be
       supplemented by any prospectus supplement required by applicable law, and
       as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar
       provisions then in force) under the Securities Act; and comply with the
       provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act applicable to them
       with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
       Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so
       supplemented and with respect to the subsequent resale of any securities
       being sold by a Participating Broker-Dealer covered by any such
       Prospectus; the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed not to have
       used their best efforts to keep a Registration Statement effective during
       the Applicable Period if any of them voluntarily takes any action that
       would result in




   16

                                      -14-


       selling Holders of the Registrable Notes covered thereby or Participating
       Broker-Dealers seeking to sell Exchange Notes not being able to sell such
       Registrable Notes or such Exchange Notes during that period unless such
       action is required by applicable law or unless the Company and the
       Guarantors comply with this Agreement, including without limitation, the
       provisions of clauses 5(c)(v) and (vi) below.

            (c) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
       (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
       pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities
       Act by any  Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes
       during the Applicable Period, notify the selling Holders of Registrable
       Notes, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be,
       their counsel and the managing underwriter(s), if any, promptly (but in
       any event within two business days), and confirm such notice in writing,
       (i) when a Prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective
       amendment thereto has been filed, and, with respect to a Registration
       Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has
       become effective under the Securities Act (including in such notice a
       written statement that any Holder may, upon request, obtain, without
       charge, one conformed copy of such Registration Statement or
       post-effective amendment thereto including financial statements and
       schedules, documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
       reference and exhibits), (ii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop
       order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any
       order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary Prospectus or
       the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) if at any time
       when a Prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in
       connection with sales of the Registrable Notes or resales of Exchange
       Notes by Participating Broker-Dealers the representations and warranties
       of the Company contained in any agreement (including any underwriting
       agreement) contemplated by Section 5(n) below cease to be true and
       correct, (iv) of the receipt by any of the Company or the Guarantors of
       any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or
       exemption from qualification of a Registration Statement or any of the
       Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes to be sold by any Participating
       Broker-Dealer for offer or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or
       threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the happening of
       any




   17

                                      -15-


       event or any information becoming known that makes any statement made in
       such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document
       incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in
       any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in, or
       amendments or supplements to, such Registration Statement, Prospectus or
       documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not
       contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
       material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
       statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the
       Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
       or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
       necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
       under which they were made, not misleading, and (vi) of the Company's or
       any Guarantor's reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment
       to a Registration Statement would be necessary or appropriate.

            (d) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
       (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
       pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities
       Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes
       during the Applicable Period, use their best efforts to prevent the
       issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
       Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of a
       Prospectus or suspending the qualification (or exemption from
       qualification) of any of the Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes to
       be sold by any Participating Broker-Dealer, for sale in any jurisdiction,
       and, if any such order is issued, to use their best efforts to obtain the
       withdrawal of any such order as promptly as practicable.

            (e) If a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 and if
       requested by the managing underwriter(s), if any, or the Holders of a
       majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being
       sold in connection with an underwritten offering, (i) promptly
       incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such
       information as the managing underwriter(s), if any, or such Holders
       reasonably request to be included therein and (ii) make all required
       filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as
       soon as practicable after the Company has received notifi-




   18

                                      -16-


       cation of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or
       post-effective amendment.

            (f) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
       (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
       pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities
       Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes
       during the Applicable Period, furnish to each selling Holder of
       Registrable Notes who so requests and to each such Participating
       Broker-Dealer who so requests and to counsel and the managing
       underwriter(s), if any, without charge, one conformed copy of the
       Registration Statement or Registration Statements and each post-effective
       amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if
       requested, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
       therein by reference and all exhibits.

            (g) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
       (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
       pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities
       Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes
       during the Applicable Period, deliver to each selling Holder of
       Registrable Notes, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case
       may be, their counsel, and the managing underwriter or underwriters, if
       any, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses
       (including each form of preliminary Prospectus) and each amendment or
       supplement thereto and any documents incorporated by reference therein as
       such Persons may reasonably request; and, subject to the last paragraph
       of this Section 5, each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby consents
       to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by
       each of the selling Holders of Registrable Notes or each such
       Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, and the managing
       underwriter or underwriters or agents, if any, and dealers (if any), in
       connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Notes covered
       by, or the sale by Participating Broker-Dealers of the Exchange Notes
       pursuant to, such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto.

            (h) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Notes or any
       delivery of a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Registration Statement
       by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes
       during the Appli-




   19

                                      -17-


       cable Period, to use their best efforts to register or qualify, and to
       cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Notes or each such
       Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriter
       or underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection with
       the registration or qualification of (or exemption from such registration
       or qualification), such Registrable Notes for offer and sale under the
       securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United
       States as any selling Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer, or the
       managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, reasonably request in
       writing, provided that where Exchange Notes held by Participating
       Broker-Dealers or Registrable Notes are offered other than through an
       underwritten offering, the Company and the Guarantors agree to cause
       their counsel to perform Blue Sky investigations and file registrations
       and qualifications required to be filed pursuant to this Section 5(h);
       keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom)
       effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to be
       kept effective and do any and all other acts or things reasonably
       necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of
       the Exchange Notes held by Participating Broker-Dealers or the
       Registrable Notes covered by the applicable Registration Statement;
       provided that none of the Company or the Guarantors shall be required to
       (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not
       then so qualified, (B) take any action that would subject it to general
       service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
       subject or (C) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction where
       it is not otherwise so subject.

            (i) If a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3,
       cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Notes and the managing
       underwriter or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation
       and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Notes to be sold,
       which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends and shall be in
       a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company; and enable
       such Registrable Notes to be in such denominations and registered in such
       names as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or Holders may
       reasonably request.

            (j) Use their best efforts to cause the Registrable Notes covered by
       the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such
       other governmental agencies




   20

                                      -18-


       or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers
       thereof or the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to
       consummate the disposition of such Registrable Notes, except as may be
       required solely as a consequence of the nature of such selling Holder's
       business, in which case each of the Company and the Guarantors will
       cooperate in all reasonable respects with the filing of such Registration
       Statement and the granting of such approvals.

            (k) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
       (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
       pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities
       Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes
       during the Applicable Period, upon the occurrence of any event
       contemplated by paragraph 5(c)(v) or 5(c)(vi), as promptly as reasonably
       practicable prepare and (subject to Section 5(a)) file with the SEC, at
       the joint and several expense of each of the Company and the Guarantors,
       a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or
       a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or
       deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, or file any other
       required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of
       the Registrable Notes being sold thereunder or to the purchasers of the
       Exchange Notes to whom such Prospectus will be delivered by a
       Participating Broker-Dealer, any such Prospectus will not 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, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
       not misleading.

            (l) Use their best efforts to cause the Registrable Notes covered by
       a Registration Statement or the Exchange Notes, as the case may be, to be
       rated with the appropriate rating agencies, if so requested by the
       Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Registrable Notes
       covered by such Registration Statement or the Exchange Notes, as the case
       may be, or the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any.

            (m) Prior to the effective date of the first Registration Statement
       relating to the Registrable Notes, (i) provide the Trustee with
       certificates for the Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes, as the case may
       be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Com-




   21

                                      -19-


       pany and (ii) provide a CUSIP number for the Registrable Notes or
       Exchange Notes, as the case may be.

            (n) In connection with an underwritten offering of Registrable Notes
       pursuant to a Shelf Registration, enter into an underwriting agreement as
       is customary in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the
       Notes and take all such other actions as are reasonably requested by the
       managing underwriter(s), if any, in order to expedite or facilitate the
       registration or the disposition of such Registrable Notes, and in such
       connection, (i) make such representations and warranties to the managing
       underwriter or underwriters on behalf of any underwriters, with respect
       to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries and the Registration
       Statement, Prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be
       incorporated by reference therein, in each case, as are customarily made
       by issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings of debt securities
       similar to the Notes, and confirm the same if and when requested; (ii)
       obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors and updates
       thereof in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the managing
       underwriter or underwriters, addressed to the managing underwriter or
       underwriters covering the matters customarily covered in opinions
       requested in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the
       Notes and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by the
       managing underwriter(s); provided, that no such opinion of outside
       counsel to the Company or any Guarantor which shall have rendered an
       opinion in connection with the sale of the Notes to the Initial
       Purchasers (the "Original Opinion") need cover any matter other than
       matters covered in the Original Opinion and such other matters concerning
       the Registration Statement and the application of the Securities Act to
       the offer and sale of the Registration Notes as may be reasonably
       requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters; (iii) obtain "cold
       comfort" letters and updates thereof in form and substance reasonably
       satisfactory to the managing underwriter or underwriters from the
       independent certified public accountants of the Company and the
       Guarantors (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public
       accountants of any subsidiary of any of the Company or of any business
       acquired by any of the Company or the Guarantors for which financial
       statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in the
       Registration Statement), addressed to the managing underwriter or
       underwriters on behalf of any underwriters, such letters




   22

                                      -20-


       to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily
       covered in "cold comfort" letters in connection with underwritten
       offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes and such other matters
       as may be reasonably requested by the managing underwriter or
       underwriters; and (iv) if an underwriting agreement is entered into, the
       same shall contain indemnification provisions and  procedures no less
       favorable than those set forth in Section 7 hereof (or such other
       provisions and procedures acceptable to Holders of a majority in
       aggregate principal amount of Registrable Notes covered by such
       Registration Statement and the managing underwriter or underwriters or
       agents) with respect to all parties to be indemnified pursuant to said
       Section.  The above shall be done at each closing under such underwriting
       agreement, or as and to the extent required thereunder.

            (o) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
       (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
       pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities
       Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes
       during the Applicable Period, make available for inspection by any
       selling Holder of such Registrable Notes being sold, or each such
       Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriter
       or underwriters participating in any such disposition of Registrable
       Notes, if any, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by
       any such selling Holder or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the
       case may be (collectively, the "Inspectors"), at the offices where
       normally kept, during reasonable business hours, all financial and other
       records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and
       the Guarantors and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, the
       "Records") as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise
       any applicable due diligence responsibilities, and cause the officers,
       directors and employees of the Company and the Guarantors and their
       respective subsidiaries to supply all information in each case reasonably
       requested by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration
       Statement.  Records which the Company and the Guarantors determine, in
       good faith, to be confidential and any Records which they notify the
       Inspectors are confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors
       unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or
       correct a material misstatement or material omission in such Registration
       Statement, (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant




   23

                                      -21-


       to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction or
       (iii) the information in such Records has been made generally available
       to the public.  Each selling Holder of such Registrable Notes and each
       such Participating Broker-Dealer or underwriter will be required to agree
       that information obtained by it as a result of such inspections shall be
       deemed confidential and shall not be used by it as the basis for any
       market transactions in the securities of the Company or for any purpose
       other than in connection with such Registration Statement unless and
       until such is made generally available to the public.  Each selling
       Holder of such Registrable Notes and each such Participating
       Broker-Dealer will be required to further agree that it will, upon
       learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of
       competent jurisdiction, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the
       Company to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the
       Records deemed confidential at their expense.

            (p) Provide an indenture trustee for the Registrable Notes or the
       Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and cause the Indenture or the trust
       indenture provided for in Section 2(a), as the case may be, to be
       qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date of the Exchange
       Registration Statement or the first Registration Statement relating to
       the Registrable Notes; and in connection therewith, cooperate with the
       trustee under any such indenture and the Holders of the Registrable
       Notes, to effect such changes to such indenture as may be required for
       such indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the
       TIA; and execute, and use its best efforts to cause such trustee to
       execute, all documents as may be required to effect such changes, and all
       other forms and documents required to be filed with the SEC to enable
       such indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner.

            (q) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and
       make generally available to its securityholders earnings statements
       satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule
       158 thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated under the Securities Act)
       no later than 45 days after the end of any 12-month period (or 90 days
       after the end of any 12-month period if such period is a fiscal year) (i)
       commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Registrable Notes
       are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or best efforts
       underwritten offering and (ii) if not sold to underwriters in such an
       offering, commencing on the first day of the first 




   24

                                      -22-


       fiscal quarter of the Company after the effective date of a Registration
       Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods.

            (r) Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange,
       obtain an opinion of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors, in a form
       customary for underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the
       Notes, addressed to the Trustee for the benefit of all Holders of
       Registrable Notes participating in the Exchange Offer or the Private
       Exchange, as the case may be, and which includes an opinion that (i) each
       of the Company and the Guarantors has duly authorized, executed and
       delivered the Exchange Notes and Private Exchange Notes and the related
       indenture and (ii) each of the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange
       Notes, as the case may be, and related indenture constitute a legal,
       valid and binding obligation of each of the Company and the Guarantors,
       enforceable against each of the Company and the Guarantors in accordance
       with its respective terms (with customary exceptions).

            (s) If an Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be consummated,
       upon delivery of the Registrable Notes by Holders to the Company and the
       Guarantors (or to such other Person as directed by the Company and the
       Guarantors) in exchange for the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange
       Notes, as the case may be, the Company and the Guarantors shall mark, or
       cause to be marked, on such Registrable Notes that such Registrable Notes
       are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Notes or the Private
       Exchange Notes, as the case may be; and, in no event shall such
       Registrable Notes be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied.

            (t) Cooperate with each seller of Registrable Notes covered by any
       Registration Statement and the managing underwriter(s), if any,
       participating in the disposition of such Registrable Notes and their
       respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made
       with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD").

            (u) Use their respective best efforts to take all other reasonable
       steps necessary to effect the registration of the Registrable Notes
       covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby.





   25

                                      -23-


            The Company and the Guarantors may require each seller of
Registrable Notes or Participating Broker-Dealer as to which any registration is
being effected to furnish to the Company and the Guarantors such information
regarding such seller or Participating Broker-Dealer and the distribution of
such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes to be sold by such Participating
Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, as the Company and the Guarantors may, from
time to time, reasonably request.  The Company may exclude from such
registration the Registrable Notes of any seller or Participating Broker-Dealer
who fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving
such request.  Each seller as to which any Shelf Registration is being effected
agrees to furnish promptly to the Company all information required to be
disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company
by such seller not materially misleading.

            Each Holder of Registrable Notes and each Participating
Broker-Dealer agrees by acquisition of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes
to be sold by such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, that, upon
receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind
described in Section 5(c)(ii), 5(c)(iv), 5(c)(v) or 5(c)(vi) hereof, such Holder
will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Notes covered by such
Registration Statement or Prospectus or Exchange Notes to be sold by such Holder
or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, until such Holder's or
Participating Broker-Dealer's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or
amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 5(k), or until it is advised in
writing (the "Advice") by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus
may be resumed, and has received copies of any amendments or supplements
thereto.  In the event the Company shall give any such notice, each of the
Effectiveness Period and the Applicable Period shall be extended by the number
of days during such periods from and including the date of the giving of such
notice to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Notes covered
by such Registration Statement or Exchange Notes to be sold by such Holder or
Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, shall have received (x) the
copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 5(k) or
(y) the Advice.

6.     Registration Expenses

            (a) All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or
compliance with this Agreement by the Company and the Guarantors shall be borne

ments, securities sales agreements, indentures and any other documents
necessary in order to comply with this Agreement.

            (b) In connection with any Shelf Registration hereunder, the Company
and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall reimburse the Holders of the
Registrable Notes being registered in such registration for the reasonable fees
and disbursements of not more than one counsel (in addition to appropriate local
counsel) chosen by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Registrable Notes to be included in such Registration Statement and other
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Holders of Registrable
Notes incurred in connection with the registration of the Registrable Notes.
The Company and the Guarantors shall not have any obligation to pay any
underwriting fees, discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of
Registrable Securities.

7.     Indemnification

            (a) Each of the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally,
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Notes and each
Participating Broker-Dealer selling Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period,
the officers and directors of each such Person, and each Person, if any, who
controls any such Person within the meaning of either Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, a "Participant"), from
and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including,
without limitation, the reasonable and documented legal fees and other expenses
actually incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim
asserted) caused by, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration
Statement or Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have
furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary Prospectus,
or caused by, arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities are caused by any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
relating to any Participant furnished to the Company in writing by such
Participant expressly for use therein; provided that the foregoing indemnity
with respect to any preliminary Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any
Participant (or to the benefit of an officer or director of such Participant or
any




   28

                                      -26-


Person controlling such Participant) from whom the Person asserting any such
losses, claims, damages  or liabilities purchased Registrable Notes or Exchange
Notes if such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
omission made in such preliminary Prospectus is eliminated or remedied in the
related Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have
furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) and a copy of the related
Prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) shall have been furnished to such
Participant at or prior to the sale of such Registrable or Exchange Notes, as
the case may be, to such Person.

            (b) Each Participant will be required to agree, severally and not
jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Guarantors, their
respective directors and officers and each Person who controls any of the
Company or the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity
from the Company and the Guarantors to each Participant and shall have the
rights and duties given to the Company and the Guarantors in paragraph (c) of
this Section 7 (except that if the Company and the Guarantors shall have assumed
the defense thereof, such Participant shall not be required to do so, but may
employ separate counsel therein and participate in the defense thereof but the
fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Participant),
but only with reference to information relating to such Participant furnished to
the Company and the Guarantors in writing by such Participant expressly for use
in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, any amendment or supplement
thereto, or any preliminary Prospectus.  The liability of any Participant under
this paragraph (b) shall in no event exceed the proceeds received by such
Participant from sales of Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes giving rise to
such obligations.

            (c) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or
regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against
any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 7, such Person (the "Indemnified Person")
shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the
"Indemnifying Person") in writing, and the Indemnifying Person, upon request of
the Indemnified Person, shall retain one counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others the
Indemnifying Person may reasonably designate in such proceeding and shall pay
the reasonable fees and expenses incurred by such counsel related to such
proceeding.  In any such




   29

                                      -27-


proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified
Person shall have mutually agreed in writing to the contrary, (ii) the
Indemnifying Person has failed to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Person or (iii) the named parties in any such proceeding (including
any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified
Person and such Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that
there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different
from or additional to those available to any such Indemnifying Person.  It is
understood that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any
proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the
fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm (in addition to any local
counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall
be reimbursed as they are incurred.  Any such separate firm for the
Participants and such control Persons of Participants shall be designated in
writing by Participants who sold a majority in interest of Registrable Notes
and Exchange Notes sold by all such Participants and any such separate firm for
the Company and the Guarantors, their directors, their officers and such
control Persons of the Company and the Guarantors shall be designated in
writing by the Company.  The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its prior written consent, but if
settled with such consent or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff for
which the Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this
Agreement, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person
from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or
judgment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an
Indemnified Person shall have requested an Indemnifying Person to reimburse the
Indemnified Person for reasonable fees and expenses incurred by counsel as
contemplated by the third sentence of this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person
agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected
without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60
days after receipt by such Indemnifying Person of the aforesaid request and
(ii) such Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person
in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement; provided,
however, that the Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement
effected without its consent pursuant to this sentence if the Indemnifying
Party is contesting, in good faith, the request for reimbursement.  No
Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior written consent of




   30

                                      -28-


the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a
party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified
Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release (or any other
release reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person) of such Indemnified
Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding.

            (d) If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) of
this Section 7 is unavailable to an Indemnified Person in respect of any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein (other than as a result of
the proviso set forth in Section 7(a)), then each Indemnifying Person under such
paragraphs, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result
of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on
the one hand and the Participants on the other in connection with the statements
or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of the
Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Participants on the other
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 and the
Guarantors or by the Participants and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission.

            (e) The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation
(even if the Participants were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any
other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.  The amount
paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims,
damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall
be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any reasonable
legal or other expenses actually incurred by such Indemnified Person in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall a
Participant be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by
which proceeds received by such Participant from sales of Registrable Notes or




   31

                                      -29-


Exchange Notes exceeds the amount of any damages that such Participant has
otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission.  No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

            (f) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this
Section 7 will be in addition to any liability which the Indemnifying Persons
may otherwise have to the Indemnified Persons referred to above.

8.     Rules 144 and 144A

            Each of the Company and the Guarantors covenants that it will file
the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder in a timely
manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it
will, upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Notes, make publicly
available other information of a like nature so long as necessary to permit
sales pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A.  Each of the Company and the Guarantors
further covenants that so long as any Registrable Notes remain outstanding to
make available to any Holder of Registrable Notes in connection with any sale
thereof, the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act in
order to permit resales of such Registrable Notes pursuant to (a) such Rule
144A, or (b) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC.

9.     Underwritten Registrations

            If any of the Registrable Notes covered by any Shelf Registration
are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banking firm or firms
that will underwrite the offering and the manager or managers that will manage
the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of such Registrable Notes included in such offering and shall
be reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Guarantors.

            No Holder of Registrable Notes may participate in any underwritten
offering hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder's
Registrable Notes on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements
approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b)
completes




   32

                                      -30-


and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting
agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such
underwriting arrangements.

10.    Miscellaneous

            (a) Remedies.  In the event of a breach by the Company or any
Guarantor of any of its obligations under this Agreement, other than the
occurrence of an event which requires payment of Additional Interest, each
Holder of Registrable Notes, in addition to being entitled to exercise all
rights provided herein, in the Indenture or, in the case of the Initial
Purchasers, in the Purchase Agreement or granted by law, including recovery of
damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this
Agreement.  Each of the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree
that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred
by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and
hereby further agrees, jointly and severally, that, in the event of any action
for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense
that a remedy at law would be adequate.

            (b) Enforcement.  The Trustee shall be authorized to enforce the
provisions of this Agreement for the ratable benefit of the Holders.

            (c) No Inconsistent Agreements.  None of the Company or the
Guarantors has entered, as of the date hereof, and the Company and the
Guarantors shall not enter, after the date of this Agreement, into any agreement
with respect to any of their securities that is inconsistent with the rights
granted to the Holders of Registrable Notes in this Agreement or otherwise
conflicts with the provisions hereof.  None of the Company or the Guarantors has
entered or will enter into any agreement with respect to any of its securities
which will grant to any Person piggy-back rights with respect to a Registration
Statement required to be filed under this Agreement.

            (d) Adjustments Affecting Registrable Notes.  Neither the Company
nor the Guarantors shall, directly or indirectly, take any action with respect
to the Registrable Notes as a class that would adversely affect the ability of
the Holders of Registrable Notes to include such Registrable Notes in a
registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

            (e) Amendments and Waivers.  The provisions of this Agreement,
including the provisions of this sentence, may not




   33

                                      -31-


be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures
from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company and the
Guarantors have obtained the written consent of Holders of at least a majority
of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of Registrable Notes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the
provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the
rights of Holders of Registrable Notes whose securities are being sold pursuant
to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect,
impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Registrable Notes
may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Registrable Notes being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration
Statement, provided that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended,
modified or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the
immediately preceding sentence.

            (f) Notices.  All notices and other communications (including
without limitation any notices or other communications to the Trustee) provided
for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, registered
first-class mail, next-day courier or telecopier:

            (i) if to a Holder of Registrable Notes or any Participating
       Broker-Dealer, at the most current address given by the Trustee to the
       Company; and

       Attention:  Robert B. Pincus, Esq.

            All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been
duly given:  (i) when delivered by hand, if personally delivered; (ii) five
business days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed;
(iii) one business day after being timely delivered to a next-day courier; and
(iv) when receipt is acknowledged by the addressee, if telecopied.

            Copies of all such notices, demands or other communications shall be
concurrently delivered by the Person giving the same to the Trustee under the
Indenture at the address specified in such Indenture.

                                      -32-


            (g) Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the
parties, including without limitation and without the need for an express
assignment, subsequent Holders of Registrable Notes.

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

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

            (J) GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AS APPLIED TO
CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO
PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES TO SUBMIT TO
THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

            (k) Severability.  If any term, provision, covenant or restriction
of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions,
covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and
effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties
hereto shall use their best efforts to find and employ an alternative means to
achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such
term, provision, covenant or restriction.

            (l) Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, together with the Purchase
Agreement and the Indenture, is intended by the parties as a final expression of
their agreement, and is intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the
agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject
matter contained herein and therein.

            (m) Joint and Several Obligations.  Unless otherwise stated herein,
each of the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Agreement
shall be joint and several obligations of each of them.





   35

                                      -33-


            (n) Notes Held by the Company or their Affiliates.  Whenever the
consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of Registrable Notes is
required hereunder, Registrable Notes held by the Company or their affiliates
(as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) shall not be
counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders
of such required percentage.





   36

                                      -34-


      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the
date first written above.
