Senior Subordinated Notes (a) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, Holding and Acquiror will take all actions as may be necessary to (i) repurchase the aggregate principal amount of the Company's 8-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 (hereinafter referred to as the "Notes") that are tendered to the Company on the terms set forth in Section 8.10 of the Company Disclosure Schedule and such other customary terms and conditions as are reasonably acceptable to Acquiror and (ii) obtain the consent of holders of such principal amount of the Notes outstanding required pursuant to terms of the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 26, 1998 between the Company and State Street Bank and Trust Company of California, National Association, as Trustee (the "Indenture"), to amend the terms of the Indenture in the manner set forth in Section 8.10 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), together the "Debt Offer"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company be required to take any action that could obligate the Company to repurchase any Notes or incur any additional obligations to the holders of Notes prior to the Effective Time. (b) The Company shall waive any of the conditions to the Debt Offer and make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Debt Offer as reasonably requested by the Acquiror, and the Company shall not, without Acquiror's prior consent, waive any material condition to the Debt Offer, make any changes to the terms and conditions of the Debt Offer set forth in Section 8.10 of the Company Disclosure Schedule or make any other material changes in the terms and conditions of the Debt Offer. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Acquiror shall not request that the Company make any change to the terms and conditions of the Debt Offer which decreases the price per Note payable in the Debt Offer, changes the form of consideration payable in the Debt Offer (other than by adding consideration) or imposes conditions to the Debt Offer in addition to those set forth in Section 8.10 of the Company Disclosure Schedule which are materially adverse to holders of the Notes (it being agreed that a request by Acquiror that the Company waive any condition in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion shall not be deemed to be materially adverse to any holder of Notes), unless such change was previously approved in writing by the Special Committee or a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company. (c) Promptly following the date of this Agreement, Holding, Acquiror and the Company shall prepare an offer to purchase the Notes (or portions thereof) and forms of the related letter of transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal") (collectively, the "Offer to Purchase") and summary advertisement, as well as other information and exhibits (collectively, the "Offer Documents"). Holding, Acquiror and the Company shall cooperate with each other in the preparation of the Offer Documents. All mailings to the holders of Notes in connection with the Debt Offer shall be subject to the prior review, comment and reasonable approval of Acquiror. Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Section 10.1 , the Company shall, promptly after request of Acquiror (but in no event earlier than twenty calendar days after the date hereof), commence the Debt Offer and cause the Offer Documents to be mailed to the holders of the Notes as promptly as practicable following execution of this Agreement. The Company, Holding and Acquiror agree promptly to correct any information in the Offer Documents that shall be or have become false or misleading in any material respect. (d) In connection with the Debt Offer, if requested by Acquiror, the Company shall promptly furnish Acquiror with security position listings, any non-objecting beneficial owner lists and any available listings or computer files containing the names and addresses of the beneficial owners and/or record holders of Notes, each as of a recent date, and shall promptly furnish Acquiror with such additional information (including but not limited to updated lists of Noteholders, mailing labels, security position listings and non-objecting beneficial owners lists) and such other assistance as Acquiror or its agents may reasonably require in communicating the Debt Offer to the record and beneficial holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may make payment on the Notes if the Company and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the Representatives of any Designated Senior Debt with respect to which either of the events set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 13.03(a) has occurred and is continuing.
