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.

(b) The Person in whose name any Note (or its Predecessor Note) is registered on the Note Register at the close of business on any Regular Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date. The principal amount of any Note (x) in the case of any Physical Note, shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company designated by the Company for such purposes in the contiguous United States of America, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office and (y) in the case of any Global Note, shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Company shall pay (or cause the Paying Agent to pay to the extent funded by the Company) interest (i) on any Physical Notes (A) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or less, by check mailed to the Holders of these Notes at their address as it appears in the Note Register and (B) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of more than $5,000,000, either by check mailed to each such Holder or, upon application by such a Holder to the Note Registrar (containing the requisite information for the Trustee or Paying Agent to make such wire transfer) not later than the relevant Regular Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to that Holder’s account within the United States of America, which application shall remain in effect until the Holder notifies, in writing, the Note Registrar to the contrary or (ii) on any Global Note by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.

The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the Defaulted Amounts proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which shall be not less than 25 days after the receipt by the Trustee of such notice, unless the Trustee shall consent to an earlier date), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Amounts or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or 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 Amounts as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment, and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of such special record date and the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor to be delivered to each Holder at its address as it appears in the Note Register, or by electronic means to the Depositary in the case of Global Notes, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date.

The Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever for the calculation of the Defaulted Amounts. (ii) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Amounts in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.
Notes to Rank Pari Passu The Notes and all other obligations under this Agreement of the Company are and at all times shall remain direct and unsecured obligations of the Company ranking pari passu as against the assets of the Company with all other Notes from time to time issued and outstanding hereunder without any preference among themselves and pari passu with all other present and future unsecured Debt (actual or contingent) of the Company which is not expressed to be subordinate or junior in rank to any other unsecured Debt of the Company.
