due March 31, 2005 (all such notes, whether initially issued, or issued in
exchange or substitution for, any such note, in each case in accordance
with the Note Agreement, collectively, the "Notes," whether such Notes

Notes shall be issued pursuant to a Note Agreement (as may be amended,
restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Note Agreement") in
the form of Exhibit 1.1(a). The Note Agreement shall specify whether each
purchaser of Notes at the Closing shall be purchasing notes in the form of
(i) Attachment A1 thereto (the "PIK Notes"), which shall provide for the
accrual of interest with respect to the principal thereof on a quarterly
basis, payable in arrears, at a rate of 12% per annum, as further set forth
therein, with a portion of such interest to be capitalized from time to
time on a quarterly basis, all as further set forth therein and in the Note
Agreement, or (ii) Attachment A2 thereto (the "Warrant Notes"), which shall
provide for the accrual of interest with respect to the principal thereof
on a quarterly basis, payable in arrears, at a rate of 12% per annum, as
further set forth therein, with a portion of such interest to be paid in
the form of Warrants (defined below), all as further set forth therein, in
the Note Agreement and in the Warrant Agreement.
(b) Authorization of Warrants. The Company will authorize the
issuance of up to an aggregate of the Warrant Authorization Amount of

the form of Attachment A to the Warrant Agreement and the Warrants
shall have the terms provided in the Warrant Certificates. The Warrants
shall be issued to the holder of the Warrant Notes from time to time, all
as set forth herein, in the Note Agreement, in the Warrant Notes and in the
Warrant Agreement.
1.2. The Closing.

agrees to sell to you and you hereby agree to purchase from the Company,

aggregate principal amount of PIK Notes or Warrant Notes set forth below
your name on Annex 1, at an aggregate purchase price for such Notes and
Warrants equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount of
Notes to be purchased.
(b) The Closing. The closing (the "Closing") of the sale of the
Purchased Securities will be held at 10:00 a.m., local time, on February
28, 2000 or such other time and date as the Other Purchasers, the Company

purchase price therefor, as directed by the Company in writing not later
than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, which shall be an
account at a bank located in the United States of America.
(c) Other Purchasers. Contemporaneously with the execution and
delivery hereof, the Company is entering into a separate Securities
Purchase Agreement identical (except for the name and signature of the
purchaser) to this Agreement (this Agreement and such other separate
Securities Purchase Agreements, each as from time to time amended or
modified, being herein sometimes referred to as the "Securities Purchase
Agreements") with each other purchaser (individually, an "Other Purchaser,"
and collectively, the "Other Purchasers") listed on Annex 1, providing for
the sale to each Other Purchaser of the Purchased Securities set forth
below its name on such Annex. The sales of the Purchased Securities to you
and to each Other Purchaser are separate sales.

purchase,
(i) in lieu of any PIK Notes allocated to such holder on
Annex 1, a like principal amount of Warrant Notes or;
(ii) in lieu of any Warrant Notes allocated to such holder
on Annex 1, a like principal amount of PIK Notes;
2
such election, in either case, to be made in writing delivered to the
Company pursuant to Section 6.1. Effective immediately upon the making of
any such election, Annex 1 shall be deemed to be amended to reflect such
election.

Liens of Agent.
2.8. Financial Statements; Debt; Projections; Fiscal Year.
(a) Financial Statements. The Company has provided you with the
Consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiaries
described on Part 2.8(a) of Annex 3. Such Consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, and present fairly the
financial positions of the Company and such Persons at such dates specified
therein and the results of the Company's operations for such periods
specified therein. Since September 30, 1999, there has been no material
change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Company and such
other Persons as shown on the Consolidated balance sheet as of such date
and no material change in the aggregate value of Equipment and real
Property owned by the Company or such other Persons, except as set forth in

transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents and the Senior Credit
Agreement, and provides the following information with respect to each item
of such Debt: the obligor, each guarantor thereof and each other Person

personnel of the Company in light of the business of the Company. Such
Projections have been prepared in good faith, have a reasonable basis and
represent the good faith opinion of the Company as to the projected results
of the operations of the Obligors. No material facts have occurred since
the preparation of the Projections that would cause the Projections, taken
as a whole, not to be reasonably attainable, and the Obligors do not have,
on the Closing Date, any material obligations (whether accrued, matured,
absolute, actual, contingent or otherwise) that are not reflected in the
Projections.
(d) Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Company ends on the last day
of February in each year.

Material Adverse Effect.
2.16. Compliance with Laws. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has
duly complied with, and its Properties, business operations and leaseholds are
in compliance in all material respects with, the provisions of all Applicable
Law (except to the extent that any such noncompliance with Applicable Law could

been no citations, notices or orders of noncompliance issued to the Company or
any of the Subsidiaries under any such law, rule or regulation. No Inventory has
been produced in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (29 U.S.C. (S) 201 et
seq.).
2.17. Restrictions. Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries is a
party or subject to any contract, agreement, or charter or other corporate

agreement or contract that restricts its right or ability to issue capital stock
or rights with respect thereto), except as set forth on Part 2.17 of Annex 3,
none of which prohibit the execution or delivery of any of the Financing
Documents by any Obligor or the performance by any Obligor of its obligations
under any of the Financing Documents to which it is a party, in accordance with
the terms of such Financing Documents.

which relate to any of the Financing Documents or any of the transactions

Company's performance hereunder, constitute a Default or an Event of Default.
Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries is in default, and no event has

Person for Money Borrowed.
2.20. Leases. Part 2.20 of Annex 3 is a complete listing of all material
