23, 1998, among the Company, the Guarantors (as defined below) and U.S. Bank
National Association (the "TRUSTEE").
The Notes will be guaranteed (the "GUARANTEES") by Allied Waste

The Notes will be secured by a first priority lien on: (i) all the capital

BFI's domestic Restricted Subsidiaries and certain other wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Allied (collectively, the "ASSETS" and, along with the Domestic
Pledged Stock and the Foreign Pledged Stock, the "COLLATERAL"). BFI and its
subsidiaries that own the Collateral (the "GRANTOR SUBSIDIARIES") entered into
an amendment on January 25, 2001 to the Shared Collateral Pledge Agreement,

collateral trustee. The Amendment, together with the Shared Collateral

security interest in the Collateral.
This Agreement, the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Shared
Collateral Agreements are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as the

The Company has filed, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (collectively,
the "ACT"), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") a

which Allied or the Company has filed or will file in accordance with the
provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and
regulations thereunder (collectively, the "EXCHANGE ACT"). The Company has
furnished to you, for use by the Underwriters and by dealers, copies of a

prospectus subsequently filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under
the Act and deemed to be part of the registration statement and also including

second business day after the date hereof (or such earlier time as may be
required under the Act) or, if no such filing is required, the form of final
prospectus included in the Registration Statement at the time it became
effective, is herein called the "PROSPECTUS." As used herein, "business day"
shall mean a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading.
1. AGREEMENTS TO SELL AND PURCHASE.
On the basis of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in

Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby agrees with the Underwriters
as follows:
(a) To file the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act not later

(b) To advise the Representatives promptly and, if requested by the
Representatives, confirm such advice in writing, (i) of the issuance by any
state securities commission of any stop order suspending the qualification or
exemption from qualification of the Notes for offering or sale in any
jurisdiction designated by the Representatives pursuant to Section 3(h) hereof,
or the initiation of any proceeding by any state securities commission or any
other federal or state regulatory authority for such purpose, and (ii) of the
happening of any event during the period referred to in Section 3(f) below that
makes any statement of a material fact made in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus untrue or that requires any additions to or changes in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein
not misleading. The Company and the Guarantors shall use their best efforts to
prevent the issuance of any stop order or order suspending the qualification or
exemption of the Notes under any state securities or Blue Sky laws and, if at
any time any state securities commission or other federal or state regulatory
authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification or exemption of the
Notes under any state securities or Blue Sky laws, the Company and the
3
Guarantors shall use their best efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of
such order at the earliest possible time.
(c) To furnish the Underwriters and those persons identified by the
Underwriters to the Company, as many copies of the Prospectus, and any
amendments or supplements thereto, as the Underwriters may from time to time
reasonably request for the time period specified in Section 3(f); in case any
Underwriter is required to deliver a prospectus after the nine-month period
referred to in Section 10(a)(3) of the Act in connection with the sale of the
Notes, the Company will prepare, at its expense, promptly upon request such
amendment or amendments to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as may
be necessary to permit compliance with the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of
the Act. The Company consents to the use of the Prospectus, and any amendments
and supplements thereto required pursuant hereto, by the Underwriters in
connection with the offering and sale of the Notes.
(d) If it is necessary for any post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement to be declared effective before the offering of the Notes
may commence, the Company will endeavor to cause such post-effective amendment
to become effective as soon as possible and the Company will advise you promptly
and, if requested by you, will confirm such advice in writing, when such
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement has become effective.
(e) To advise you promptly and, if requested by you, confirm such advice
in writing, of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to
the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information with
respect thereto, or of notice of institution of proceedings for, or the entry of
a stop order, suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, if
the Commission should enter a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement, to use its best efforts to obtain the lifting or removal
of such order as soon as possible.
(f) During such period as a prospectus is required to be delivered under
the Act in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes by the
Underwriters, (i) to advise you promptly and, if requested by you, to confirm
such advice in writing, of any proposal to amend or supplement the Registration
Statement or the Prospectus, including by filing any documents that would be
incorporated therein by reference, and to provide you and Underwriters' counsel
copies of any such documents for review and comment a reasonable amount of time
prior to any proposed filing and to file no such amendment or supplement to
which you shall reasonably object in writing and (ii) to prepare promptly upon
the reasonable request of any of the Representatives, any amendment or
supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which in the
reasonable opinion of the counsel for the Underwriters is believed to be
necessary under the Act.
(g) To advise you promptly, during the period referred to in Section 3(f)
above, if any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which,
it becomes necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or, if it is necessary
to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus to comply
with the Act, and forthwith to prepare and file with the Commission an
4
appropriate amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus
so that the statements therein, as so amended or supplemented, will not, in the
light of the circumstances when it is so delivered, be misleading, or so that
such Registration Statement or Prospectus will comply with applicable law, and
to furnish to the Underwriters and such other persons as the Underwriters may
designate such number of copies thereof as the Underwriters may reasonably

proceedings, affiliate transactions, off-balance sheet transactions, contracts,
licenses, agreements, leases or documents of a character required to be
described in the
10
Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement have been so described or filed as required.
(p) Except as set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus,
neither Allied nor any of its subsidiaries has violated any foreign, federal,
state or local law or regulation relating to the protection of human health and
safety, the environment or hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants
or contaminants ("ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS"), or any provisions of the Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder,
except for such violations which, singly or in the aggregate, would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(q) There are no costs or liabilities associated with Environmental Laws
(including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required
for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws or any
Authorization, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential
liabilities to third parties) which would, singly or in the aggregate, have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(r) Each of Allied and its subsidiaries has such permits, licenses,
consents, exemptions, franchises, authorizations and other approvals (each, an
"AUTHORIZATION") of, and has made all filings with and notices to, all
governmental or regulatory authorities and self-regulatory organizations and all
courts and other tribunals, including without limitation, under any applicable
Environmental Laws, as are necessary to own, lease, license and operate its
respective properties and to conduct its business, except where the failure to
have any such Authorization or to make any such filing or notice would not,
singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such
Authorization is valid and in full force and effect and each of Allied and its
subsidiaries is in compliance with all the terms and conditions thereof and with
the rules and regulations of the authorities and governing bodies having
jurisdiction with respect thereto; and no event has occurred (including, without
limitation, the receipt of any notice from any authority or governing body)
which allows or, after notice or lapse of time or both, would allow, revocation,
suspension or termination of any such Authorization or results or, after notice
or lapse of time or both, would result in any other impairment of the rights of
the holder of any such Authorization; except where such failure to be valid and
in full force and effect or to be in compliance, the occurrence of any such
event or the presence of any such restriction would not, singly or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
(s) The accountants, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, who have certified the
consolidated financial statements and supporting schedules as of December 31,
2002 and December 31, 2001 and for each of the two years in the period ended
December 31, 2002, included and incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus, are independent public accountants with respect to
the Company and the Guarantors, as required by the Act and the Exchange Act, and
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP, who have certified the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2000, included and incorporated by reference in
the Offering Memorandum, were, at the time of the certification, independent
public accountants with respect to the Company and the Guarantors, as required
by the Act and the Exchange Act.
11
(t) The historical financial statements, together with related schedules
and notes forming part of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (and any
amendment or supplement thereto), present fairly the consolidated financial
position, results of operations and changes in financial position of Allied and
its subsidiaries on the basis stated in the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus at the respective dates or for the respective periods to which they
apply; such statements and related schedules and notes have been prepared in
compliance with the requirements of the Act and in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied throughout the periods
involved, except as disclosed therein; the other financial and statistical
information and data set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus
(and any amendment or supplement thereto) are, in all material respects,
accurately presented and prepared on a basis consistent with such financial
statements and the books and records of the Company; there are no financial
statements that are required to be included in the Registration Statement and
the Prospectus that are not included as required; and Allied and its
subsidiaries do not have any liabilities or obligations, direct or contingent
(including any off-balance sheet obligations) that would result in a Material
Adverse Effect, not disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.
(u) Neither Allied nor the Company is, and, after giving effect to the
offering and sale of the Notes and the application of the net proceeds thereof
as described in the Prospectus, neither of them will be, an "investment
company," as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.
(v) No "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" as such
term is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Act has imposed (or has
informed the Company or any Guarantor that it is considering imposing) any
condition (financial or otherwise) on the Company's or any Guarantor's retaining
any rating assigned to the Company or any Guarantor or any securities of the
Company or any Guarantor.
(w) Subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in
the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendments or
supplements thereto subsequent to the date of this Agreement), other than as set
forth in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, (i) there has not
occurred any material adverse change or any development involving a prospective
material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or the
earnings, business, management or operations of Allied and its subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, (ii) there has not occurred any transaction which is material
to Allied and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (iii) there has not been any
change or any development involving a prospective material adverse change in the
capital stock or in the long-term debt of Allied or any of its subsidiaries,
(iv) neither Allied nor any of its subsidiaries has incurred any material
liability or obligation, direct or contingent.
(x) Allied and each of its subsidiaries has good and marketable title to
all property (real and personal) described in the Registration Statement and in
the Prospectus as being owned by each of them, free and clear of all Liens,
except for (i) Liens disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus
and (ii) such other Liens which could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect; all the property described in the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus as being held under lease by Allied or a subsidiary
is held thereby
12
under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as would not
have a Material Adverse Effect.
(y) Neither Allied nor any of its subsidiaries is engaged in any unfair
labor practice; except for matters which would not, individually or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) there is (A) no unfair labor
practice complaint pending or, to Allied's knowledge after due inquiry,
threatened against Allied or any of its subsidiaries before the National Labor
Relations Board, and no grievance or arbitration proceeding arising out of or
under collective bargaining agreements is pending or threatened, (B) no strike,
labor dispute, slowdown or stoppage pending or, to Allied's knowledge after due
inquiry, threatened against Allied or any of its subsidiaries and (C) no union
representation dispute currently existing concerning the employees of Allied or
any of its subsidiaries, and (ii) to Allied's knowledge after due inquiry, (A)
no union organizing activities are currently taking place concerning the
employees of Allied or any of its subsidiaries and (B) there has been no
violation of any federal, state, local or foreign law relating to discrimination
in the hiring, promotion or pay of employees, any applicable wage or hour laws
or any provision of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA") or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder concerning the
employees of Allied or any of its subsidiaries.
(z) Allied maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient
to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance
with management's general or specific authorization; (ii) transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain
accountability for assets; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
accordance with management's general or specific authorization; and (iv) the
recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any
differences.
(aa) Allied has established and maintains disclosure controls and
procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-14 and 15d-14 under the Exchange
Act); such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that
material information relating to Allied, including its consolidated
subsidiaries, is made known to the Allied's Chief Executive Officer and its
Chief Financial Officer by others within those entities; the Allied's auditors
and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors have been advised of: (i) any
significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls which
could adversely affect Allied's ability to record, process, summarize, and
report financial data; and (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that
involves management or other employees who have a role in the Allied's internal
controls; any material weaknesses in internal controls have been identified for
the Allied's auditors; and since the date of the most recent evaluation of such
disclosure controls and procedures, there have been no significant changes in
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal
controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
(bb) The operations of Allied and its subsidiaries are and have been
conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and
reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of
1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes of all jurisdictions, the rules
and regulations thereunder and any related or
13
similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by
any governmental agency (collectively, the "MONEY LAUNDERING LAWS") and no
action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency,
authority or body or any arbitrator involving Allied or any of its subsidiaries
with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the best knowledge
of the Company, threatened that would have a Material Adverse Effect.
(cc) Neither Allied nor any of its subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of
Allied, any director, officer, agent, employee or affiliate (as defined in Rule
405 of Regulation C of the Act) of Allied or any of its subsidiaries is
currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign
Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department ("OFAC"); and Allied will not
directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the Offering, or lend, contribute or
otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner
or other person or entity, for the purpose of financing the activities of any
person currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.
(dd) Neither Allied nor any of its subsidiaries nor, to Allied's knowledge
after due inquiry, any employee or agent of Allied or its subsidiaries has made
any payment of funds of Allied or its subsidiaries or received or retained any
funds in violation of any law, rule or regulation, which payment, receipt or
retention of funds is of a character required to be disclosed in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus.
(ee) Neither Allied nor the Company have knowledge, after due inquiry, of
any affiliations or associations between any member of the NASD and any of
Allied's or the Company's officers, directors or 5% or greater securityholders,
as the case may be, except as set forth in the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus.
(ff) Each certificate signed by any officer of the Company or any
Guarantor and delivered to the Underwriters or counsel for the Underwriters
shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Company or such
Guarantor to the Underwriters as to the matters covered thereby.
(gg) All indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors that will be
repaid with the proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Notes was incurred, and
the indebtedness represented by the Notes is being incurred, for proper purposes
and in good faith and each of the Company and the Guarantors was, at the time of
the incurrence of such indebtedness that will be repaid with the proceeds of the
issuance and sale of the Notes, and will be on the Closing Date (after giving
effect to the application of the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes)
solvent, and had at the time of the incurrence of such indebtedness that will be
repaid with the proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Notes and will have on
the Closing Date (after giving effect to the application of the proceeds from
the issuance of the Notes) sufficient capital for carrying on their respective
business and were, at the time of the incurrence of such indebtedness that will
be repaid with the proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Notes, and will be
on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the application of the proceeds from
the issuance of the Notes) able to pay their respective debts as they mature.
(hh) No action has been taken and no law, statute, rule or regulation or
order has been enacted, adopted or issued by any governmental agency or body
which prevents the
14
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, any of the Operative
Documents, the issuance of the Notes or the Guarantees, or suspends the sale of
the Notes or the Guarantees in any jurisdiction referred to in Section 3(h); and
no injunction, restraining order or other order or relief of any nature by a
federal or state court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction has been
issued with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries which would
prevent or suspend the issuance or sale of the Notes or the Guarantees in any
jurisdiction referred to in Section 3(h).
The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters and, for purposes of the
opinions to be delivered to the Underwriters pursuant to Section 6 hereof,
counsel to the Company and the Guarantors and counsel to the Underwriters, will
rely upon the accuracy and truth of the foregoing representations and hereby
consents to such reliance.
5. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) The Company and each Guarantor agree, jointly and severally, to
indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its directors, its officers,
affiliates and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and judgments
(including, without limitation, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred
in connection with investigating or defending any matter, including any action
that could give rise to any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
judgments) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or in the Registration
Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Company
becoming effective after the date of this Agreement) or in a Prospectus (the
term Prospectus for the purpose of this Section 5 being deemed to include any
Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus and the Prospectus as amended or
supplemented by the Company) or caused by any omission or alleged omission to
state a material fact required to be stated in either such Registration
Statement or such Prospectus or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
judgments are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission based upon information relating to such Underwriter
furnished in writing to the Company by such Underwriter for use in such
Registration Statement or such Prospectus.
The Company and each of the Guarantors also agree, jointly and severally,
to indemnify the QIU, its affiliates, directors, its officers and each person,
if any, who controls the QIU within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and judgments (including, without limitation, any
reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or
defending any matter, including any action that could give rise to any such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or judgments) incurred as a result of the
QIU's participation as a "qualified independent underwriter" within the meaning
of Rule 2720 in connection with the offering of the Notes; provided that the
foregoing indemnity will not, as to any such person, apply to losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or judgments to the extent they are found in a final,
non-appealable adjudication of a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such person's willful misconduct or gross negligence.
15
(b) The Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agree to indemnify and
hold harmless the Company and the Guarantors, and their respective directors and
officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who
controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act) the Company or the Guarantors, to the same extent as the foregoing
indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to each Underwriter but only with
reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished in writing to
the Company by such Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement
(or in the Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment
thereof by the Company) or a Prospectus. The Company acknowledges that the
statements set forth in (i) the last paragraph of the cover page of the
Prospectus regarding delivery of the Notes and (ii) under the heading
"Underwriting," the third and sixth paragraphs in the Prospectus constitute the
only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several
Underwriters for inclusion in the Prospectus.
(c) In case any action shall be commenced involving any person in respect
of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 5(a) or 5(b) (the
"INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), the indemnified party shall promptly notify the person
against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing
and the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of such action, including
the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party and
the payment of all reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel, as incurred
(except that in the case of any action in respect of which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to both Sections 5(a) and 5(b), the Underwriters shall not be
required to assume the defense of such action pursuant to this Section 5(c), but
may employ separate counsel and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel, except as provided below, shall be at the expense
of the Underwriters). Any indemnified party shall have the right to employ
separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnified
party unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been specifically
authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnifying party
shall have failed to assume the defense of such action or employ counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or (iii) the named parties to
any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnified
party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall have been
advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available
to it which are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the
right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party).
In any such case, the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one
action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same
jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be
liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in
addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties and all such
reasonable fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred; provided,
however, that if indemnity may be sought pursuant to the second paragraph of
5(a) above in respect of such proceeding, then in addition to such separate firm
of the Underwriters, their officers, directors and affiliates and such control
persons of the Underwriters, the indemnifying person shall be liable for the
fees and expenses of not more than one separate firm (in addition to any local
counsel) for the QIU, its officers, directors and affiliates and all persons, if
any, who control the QIU within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act. Such firm shall be designated in writing by X.X.
Xxxxxx Securities Inc. ("JPMORGAN"), in the case of the parties indemnified
pursuant to Section
16
5(a), and by the Company and the Guarantors, in the case of parties indemnified
pursuant to Section 5(b), and by the QIU, in the case of a firm engaged pursuant
to the proviso in the preceding sentence. The indemnifying party shall not be
obligated to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against
any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and judgments by reason of any
settlement of any action effected without the indemnifying party's written
consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified party, effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the
entry of judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action in respect
of which the indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity or
contribution may be or could have been sought hereunder by the indemnified
party, unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an
unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability on claims that
are or could have been the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not
include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to
act, by or on behalf of the indemnified party.
(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is
unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or judgments referred to therein, then each
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and judgments (i) in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters or the QIU, as
the case may be, on the other hand, from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if
the allocation provided by clause 5(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable
law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative
benefits referred to in clause 5(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the
Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters or the QIU, as
the case may be, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
judgments, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the
Underwriters or the QIU, as the case may be, on the other hand, shall be deemed
to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the
Notes (after underwriting discounts and commissions, but before deducting
expenses) received by the Company, and the total underwriting discounts and
commissions received by the Underwriters or the fee, if any, to be received by
the QIU, as the case may be, bear to the total price to investors of the Notes,
in each case as set forth in this Agreement. The relative fault of the Company
and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters or the QIU, as the
case may be, on the other hand, 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 or the Guarantors, on the one hand, or the Underwriters
or the QIU, as the case may be, on the other hand, and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.
The Company and the Guarantors, and the Underwriters agree that it would
not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were
determined by pro rata allocation even if the Underwriters were treated as one
entity for such purpose or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or judgments referred to in the immediately
17
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any matter, including any action,
that could have given rise to such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
judgments. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, no Underwriter
shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter exceeds the amount
of any damages which such Underwriter 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 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters'
obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5(d) are several in
proportion to the respective principal amount of the Notes purchased by each of
the Underwriters hereunder and not joint.
(e) The remedies provided for in this Section 5 are not exclusive and
shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any
indemnified party at law or in equity.
6. CONDITIONS OF UNDERWRITER'S OBLIGATIONS.
The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Notes under this
Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:
(a) All the representations and warranties of the Company and the
Guarantors contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct on the Closing
Date with the same force and effect as if made on and as of the Closing Date.
(b) On or after the date hereof, (i) there shall not have occurred any
downgrading, suspension or withdrawal of, nor shall any notice have been given
of any potential or intended downgrading, suspension or withdrawal of, or of any
review (or of any potential or intended review) for a possible change that does
not indicate the direction of the possible change in, any rating of the Company
or any Guarantor or any securities of the Company or any Guarantor (including,
without limitation, the placing of any of the foregoing ratings on credit watch
with negative or developing implications or under review with an uncertain
direction) by any "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" as
such term is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Act and (ii) there
shall not have occurred any change, nor shall any notice have been given of any
potential or intended negative change, in the outlook for any rating of the
Company or any Guarantor or any securities of the Company or any Guarantor by
any such rating organization.
(c) The Prospectus shall have been filed with the Commission pursuant to
Rule 424(b) under the Act in accordance with Section 3(a) of this Agreement and

been filed to which you object in writing.

involving a prospective change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or the
earnings, business, management or operations of Allied and its subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, (ii) there shall not have been any change or any development
involving a prospective change in the capital stock or in the long-term debt of
Allied or any of its subsidiaries and (iii) neither Allied nor any of its
subsidiaries shall have incurred any liability or obligation, direct or
contingent, the effect of which, in any such case described in clause 6(e)(i),
6(e)(ii) or 6(e)(iii), in your judgment, is material and adverse and, in your
judgment, makes it impracticable to market the Notes on the terms and in the
manner contemplated in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.
(f) You shall have received on the Closing Date a certificate dated the
Closing Date, signed by the President and the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company and each of the Guarantors, confirming the matters set forth in Sections

Subsidiaries (within the meaning of Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X under the Act)
in an officer's certificate addressed to you and dated the Closing Date.
The opinion of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP described in Section 6(g) above shall
be rendered to you at the request of the Company and the Guarantors and shall so
state therein.

(i) The Underwriters shall have received, at the time this Agreement is
executed and at the Closing Date, letters dated, respectively, the date hereof

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants, containing the
information and statements of the type ordinarily included in accountants'
"comfort letters" to the Underwriters with respect to the financial statements
and certain financial information contained and incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus.
(j) The Underwriters shall have received a counterpart, conformed as

7. EFFECTIVENESS OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION.
This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery of
this Agreement by the parties hereto.
The obligations of the several Underwriters hereunder shall be subject to
termination in the absolute discretion of JPMorgan if (x) since the time of the
execution of this Agreement or the earlier respective dates as of which
information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (exclusive
of any amendments or supplements thereto), there has been any material adverse
change or any development involving a prospective material adverse change in the
business, properties, management, financial condition or results of operation of
Allied and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, which would, in JPMorgan's
judgment, make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public
offering or the delivery of the Notes on the terms and in the manner
contemplated in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (exclusive of any
amendments or supplements thereto), or (y) there shall have occurred: (i) any
attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or act of terrorism involving
the United States, any declaration of war by Congress or any other national or
international calamity or emergency if, in JPMorgan's judgment, the effect of
any such attack, outbreak, escalation, act, declaration, calamity or emergency
makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the
delivery of the Notes, (ii) the suspension or material limitation of trading in
securities or other instruments on the New York Stock Exchange, the American
Stock Exchange, the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile
Exchange, the Chicago Board of Trade or the Nasdaq National Market or limitation
on prices for securities or other instruments on any such exchange or the Nasdaq
National Market, (iii) the suspension of trading of any securities of the
Company or any Guarantor on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market, (iv)
the enactment, publication, decree or other promulgation of any federal or state
statute, regulation, rule or order of any court or other governmental authority
which in JPMorgan's judgment materially and adversely affects, or will
materially and adversely affect, the business, prospects,
20
financial condition or results of operations of Allied and its subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, (v) the declaration of a banking moratorium by either federal
or New York State authorities, (vi) any change in United States or international
financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or
exchange controls as would, in JPMorgan's judgment, be likely to prejudice
materially the success of the proposed issue, sale or distribution of the Notes,
whether in the primary market or in respect of dealings in the secondary market
or (vii) any major disruption of settlements of securities or clearance services
in the United States.
Subject to Section 6 hereof and the second paragraph of this Section 7, if
any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase the Notes
which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the
aggregate amount of the Notes which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters,
as the case may be, agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than
one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be purchased on such
date by all Underwriters, each non-defaulting Underwriter shall be obligated
severally, in the proportion which the principal amount of the Notes set forth
opposite its name in Schedule B bears to the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes which all the non-defaulting Underwriters have agreed to purchase, or in
such other proportion as you may specify, to purchase the Notes which such
defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, as the case may be, agreed but failed or
refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes which any Underwriter has agreed to purchase
pursuant to Section 1 hereof be increased pursuant to this Section 7 by an
amount in excess of one-ninth of such principal amount of the Notes without the
written consent of such Underwriter. If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall
fail or refuse to purchase the Notes and the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be purchased by all Underwriters and
arrangements satisfactory to the Underwriters and the Company for purchase of
such Notes are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement will
terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter and
the Company. In any such case which does not result in termination of this
Agreement, either you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the
Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the
required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or
any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this
paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect
of any default of any such Underwriter under this Agreement.
The term Underwriter as used in this Agreement shall refer to and include
any Underwriter substituted under this Section 7 with like effect as if such
substituted Underwriter had originally been named in Schedule B.
