We have not authorized any dealer, salesperson or other person to give any
information or to make any representation other than those contained in this
prospectus. You must not rely upon any information or representation not
contained in this prospectus as if we had authorized it. This prospectus does
not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any
securities other than the registered securities to which it relates, nor does
this prospectus constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to
buy securities in any jurisdiction to any person to whom it is unlawful to make
such an offer or solicitation in such jurisdiction.

The information in this prospectus is current only as of the date on its cover,
and may change after that date. For any time after the cover date of this
prospectus, we do not represent that our affairs are the same as described or
that the information in this prospectus is correct, nor do we imply those things
by delivering this prospectus to you.

Each broker-dealer that receives new notes for its own account pursuant to the
exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection
with any resale of new exchange notes. The Letter of Transmittal states that by
so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be
deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities
Act of 1933. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to
time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of new notes
received in exchange for private notes where the private notes were acquired by
the broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities. We have agreed that, starting on the expiration date and ending on
the close of business one year after the expiration date, broker-dealers will
make this prospectus available to any other broker-dealer for use in connection
with any such resale. See "Plan of Distribution."

Commission later will automatically update and supersede this information. The
share and per share amounts in documents that we have previously filed that we
are incorporating by reference into this prospectus (except for the report on
Form 8-K filed on April 12, 2001, reporting our results for the three month
period and the twelve month period ended February 28, 2001, and announcing our
two-for-one stock split) reflect the two-for-one stock split that we announced
on April 12, 2001. See "Explanatory Note." We incorporate by reference the
documents listed below and any filings that we make with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act

        one stock split), and April 12, 2001 (reporting the proposed acquisition
        by us of Ravenswood Winery, Inc.).

                               Explanatory Note

All share and per share amounts in this prospectus are adjusted to give effect
to the two-for-one stock split of our class A common stock and our class B
common stock that we announced on April 12, 2001. The stock split was
distributed in the form of a stock dividend on May 14, 2001, to stockholders of
record on April 30, 2001. Under the terms of the stock dividend, each holder of
class A common stock and each holder of class B common stock was issued an
additional share of class A common stock or class B common stock for each such
share held. The share and per share amounts in documents that we have previously
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that we are incorporating by
reference into this prospectus (except for the report on Form 8-K filed on April
12, 2001, reporting our results for the three month period and the twelve month
period ended February 28, 2001, and announcing our two-for-one stock split)
reflect this two-for-one stock split. See "Where You Can Find More

                          Forward-Looking Statements

This prospectus contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those set forth in, or implied by, our
forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical
facts included in this prospectus, including the statements under "Prospectus
Summary," regarding our business strategy, future operations, financial
position, estimated revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives
of management, as well as information concerning expected actions of third
parties are forward-looking statements. When used in this prospectus, the words
"anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "expect," "project" and similar expressions
are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-
looking statements contain such identifying words. All forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus. We do not undertake any
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise. Although we believe that
the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we
can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Important
factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our
expectations ("cautionary statements") are disclosed under "Risk Factors" and
elsewhere in this prospectus. The cautionary statements qualify all forward-
looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf.

                              Prospectus Summary

The following summary highlights selected information from this prospectus and
may not contain all the information that is important to you. We encourage you
to read this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in their
entirety. Unless we indicate otherwise, the terms "Company," "we," "us" and
"our" refer to Constellation Brands, Inc. together with its subsidiaries.
Constellation Brands, Inc. is a Delaware corporation that was incorporated on
December 4, 1972. On September 19, 2000, the Company changed its name to
Constellation Brands, Inc. from Canandaigua Brands, Inc.

                          Constellation Brands, Inc.

Constellation Brands, Inc. is a leader in the production and marketing of
beverage alcohol brands in North America and the United Kingdom and is a leading
independent drinks wholesaler in the United Kingdom. As the second largest
supplier of wine, the second largest importer of beer and the fourth largest
supplier of distilled spirits, we are the largest single-source supplier of
these products in the United States. In the United Kingdom, we are a leading
marketer of wine and the second largest producer and marketer of cider. With our
broad portfolio, we believe we are distinctly positioned to satisfy an array of
consumer preferences across all beverage alcohol categories. Leading brands in
our portfolio include: Franciscan Oakville Estate, Simi, Estancia, Corona Extra,
Modelo Especial, St. Pauli Girl, Almaden, Arbor Mist, Talus, Vendange, Alice
White, Black Velvet, Fleischmann's, Schenley, Ten High, Stowells of Chelsea,
Blackthorn and K.

Our products are distributed by more than 1,000 wholesale distributors in North
America. In the United Kingdom, we distribute our branded products and those of
other companies to more than 16,500 customers. We operate 29 production
facilities throughout the world. In addition to producing and marketing our own
brands, we also purchase products for resale from other producers.

Since our founding in 1945 as a producer and marketer of wine products, we have
grown through a combination of internal growth and acquisitions. Our internal
growth has been driven by leveraging our existing portfolio of leading brands,
developing new products, new packaging and line extensions, and focusing on the
faster growing sectors of the beverage alcohol industry. Since 1991, we have
successfully integrated nine major acquisitions and we are in the process of
integrating our recent Turner Road and Corus acquisitions. These acquisitions
have broadened our portfolio and increased our market share, net sales and cash
flow. For the year ended February 28, 2001, our net sales and earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") were $2.4 billion and
$341.3 million, respectively.

                     Summary Description of the New Notes

The terms of the new notes to be issued in the exchange offer and the
outstanding old notes are identical except for transfer restrictions,
registration rights, and liquidated damages that apply to the old notes. When we
refer to the term "note" or "notes", we are referring to both the outstanding
old notes and the new notes to be issued in the exchange offer.


                                              
Issuer.......................................    Constellation Brands, Inc.

                                                 due 2008.

Maturity.....................................    February 15, 2008.

Interest Payment Dates.......................    Semi-annually on February 15 and August 15, commencing August 15, 2001.

Subsidiary Guarantors........................    The notes will be unconditionally guaranteed by each of our subsidiaries that
                                                 guarantee any of our other indebtedness or other indebtedness of the

                                                 other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The notes will be
                                                 effectively subordinated to our secured indebtedness.

Optional Redemption..........................    The notes will be redeemable at any time at a make-whole amount. See
                                                 "Description of the Notes-Optional Redemption."

Change of Control............................    Upon the occurrence of a "Change of Control," each holder of the notes will
                                                 have the right to require us to repurchase such holder's notes at a price equal
                                                 to 101% of the principal amount hereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if
                                                 any, to the date of repurchase.

Covenants....................................    The indenture relating to the notes contains various covenants, including, but
                                                 not limited to, covenants with respect to the following matters:

                                                 .    limitation on indebtedness;

                                                 .    limitation on subsidiary capital stock;

                                                 .    limitation on dividends and other payment restrictions affecting
                                                      subsidiaries; and

                                                 .    restrictions on consolidations, mergers and the sale of assets.

                      Failure to Exchange Your Old Notes

The old notes that you do not tender or we do not accept will, following the
exchange offer, continue to be restricted securities. Therefore, you may only
transfer or resell them in a transaction registered under or exempt from the
Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. We will issue the new notes
in exchange for the old notes under the exchange offer only following the
satisfaction of the procedures and conditions described under the caption "The
Exchange Offer". Because we anticipate that most holders of the old notes will
elect to exchange their old notes, we expect that the liquidity of the markets,
if any, for any old notes remaining after the completion of the exchange offer
will be substantially limited. Any old notes tendered and exchanged in the
exchange offer will reduce the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the old
notes.

                                 Risk Factors


You should carefully consider all of the information set forth in this
prospectus and, in particular, should evaluate the specific factors under "Risk
Factors" beginning on page 5 before tendering your old notes in the exchange
offer.


                             ____________________

                                 Risk Factors


You should consider carefully all of the information in this prospectus and
incorporated by reference in this prospectus. In particular, you should
carefully evaluate the following risks before tendering your old notes in the
exchange offer. However, the risk factors set forth below, other than the first
two risk factors, are also generally applicable to the old notes as well as the
new notes.

This prospectus includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act. These forward-looking statements include, in particular, the statements
about our plans, strategies and prospects under the heading "Prospectus
Summary." Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations
reflected in or suggested by such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we
cannot assure you that we will achieve such plans, intentions or expectations.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
forward-looking statements we make in this prospectus are set forth below and
elsewhere in this prospectus. All forward-looking statements attributable to us
or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the
following cautionary statements.

The liquidity of unexchanged old notes will be substantially limited following
the exchange offer.

Although we believe there is currently a limited trading market for the old
notes, no generally reliable public pricing information for the old notes is
available. The trading market for unexchanged old notes could become even more
limited or nonexistent due to the reduction in the amount of old notes
outstanding after the exchange offer, which might adversely affect the
liquidity, market price and price volatility of the old notes. If a market for
unexchanged old notes exists or develops, the old notes may trade at a discount
to the price at which such old notes would trade if the amount outstanding were
not reduced, depending on prevailing interest rates, the market for similar
securities, our operating results, and other factors. However, there can be no
assurance that an active market in the unexchanged old notes will exist, develop
or be maintained and no assurance as to the prices at which the unexchanged old
notes may be traded.

Tendering holders of old notes cannot be sure that an active market will develop
for the new notes.

No assurance can be given that an active market for the new notes will develop.
The trading price of the new notes may depend upon prevailing interest rates,
the market for similar securities, our operating results, and other factors,
including general economic conditions. If there is no active trading market, you
may not be able to sell your new notes at their fair market value or at all.

Our indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on our financial health
and our ability to fulfill our obligations under the notes.

We have incurred substantial indebtedness to finance our acquisitions and we may
incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future to finance further
acquisitions. As of February 28, 2001, we have approximately $1.4 billion of
indebtedness outstanding, which does not include approximately $287.7 million of
revolving loans we had available to draw under our senior credit facility. Our
ability to satisfy our debt obligations outstanding from time to time will
depend upon our future operating performance, which is subject to prevailing
economic conditions, levels of interest rates and financial, business and other
factors, many of which are beyond our control. Therefore, there can be no
assurance that our cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet all of
our debt service requirements and to fund our capital expenditure
requirements.

Our current and future debt service obligations and covenants could have
important consequences to you. Such obligations and covenants include, and may
include, the following:


     .    our ability to obtain financing for future working capital needs or
          acquisitions or other purposes may be limited;

     .    a significant portion of our cash flow from operations will be
          dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our
          indebtedness, thereby reducing funds available for operations;

     .    we are subject to restrictive covenants that could limit our ability
          to conduct our business; and

     .    we may be more vulnerable to adverse economic conditions than our less
          leveraged competitors and, thus, may be limited in our ability to
          withstand competitive pressures.

The restrictive covenants included in our senior credit facility, our current
indentures and the indenture under which the old notes have been, and the new
notes will be, issued include, among others, those restricting additional liens,
additional borrowing, the sale of assets, changes of control, the payment of
dividends, transactions with affiliates, the making of investments and certain
other fundamental changes. The senior credit facility also contains restrictions
on acquisitions and certain financial ratio tests

                                       5


including a debt coverage ratio, a senior debt coverage ratio, a fixed charges
ratio and an interest coverage ratio. These restrictions could limit our ability
to conduct business. A failure to comply with the obligations contained in the
senior credit facility, our current indentures or the indenture under which the
old notes have been, and the new notes will be, issued could result in an event
of default under such agreements, which could require us to immediately repay
the related debt and also debt under other agreements that may contain cross-
acceleration or cross-default provisions.

The notes are unsecured; and the stock of some of our subsidiaries is pledged to
secure our senior credit facility.

The notes are not secured by any of our assets. Our obligations under our senior
credit facility, however, are secured by (i) first priority pledges of 100% of
the capital stock of Canandaigua Limited and all of our domestic operating
subsidiaries and (ii) first priority pledges of 65% of the capital stock held by
us of Matthew Clark plc; B.B. Servicios, S.A. de C.V.; Canandaigua World Sales
Limited; and Schenley Distilleries Inc./Les Distilleries Schenley Inc. If the
Company becomes insolvent or is liquidated, or if payment under our senior
credit facility is accelerated, the lenders under the facility would be entitled
to exercise the remedies available to a secured lender under applicable law and
pursuant to the agreement governing such indebtedness. In any such event,
because the notes will not be secured by any of our assets, it is possible that
there would be no assets remaining from which claims of the holders of the notes
could be satisfied or, if any such assets remained, such assets might be
insufficient to satisfy such claims fully.

Our ability to make payments on the notes depends on our ability to receive
dividends from our subsidiaries, and Matthew Clark is not a guarantor of the
notes.

We are a holding company and conduct almost all of our operations through our
subsidiaries. As of February 28, 2001, approximately 82% of our tangible assets
were held by our subsidiaries. The capital stock of our subsidiaries represents
substantially all the assets of the holding company. Accordingly, we are
dependent on the cash flows of our subsidiaries to meet our obligations,
including the payment of the principal and interest on the notes. See
"Description of the Notes."

The notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of our subsidiaries
that guarantee any of our other indebtedness or other indebtedness of the
guarantors of the notes. Holders of the notes will not have a direct claim on
assets of subsidiaries that do not guarantee the notes (including, most
significantly, the assets of Matthew Clark). For the year ended February
28, 2001, approximately $691.1 million of our net sales were from the operations
of Matthew Clark, which is not a guarantor of the notes, and approximately $1.6
billion of our net sales were from our operations and the operations of the
guarantors of the notes. Under U.S. bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of
state fraudulent transfer laws, a court could subordinate or void any guarantee
if it found that the guarantee was incurred with actual intent to hinder, delay
or defraud creditors or the guarantor did not receive fair consideration or
reasonably equivalent value for the guarantee and the guarantor was any of the
following: (i) insolvent or was rendered insolvent because of the guarantee;
(ii) engaged in a business or transaction for which its remaining assets
constituted unreasonably small capital; or (iii) intended to incur, or believed
that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay at maturity. To the extent
any guarantee were to be voided as a fraudulent conveyance or held unenforceable
for any other reason, holders of the notes would cease to have any claim in
respect of such guarantor and would be solely our creditors and any guarantor
whose guarantee was not voided or held unenforceable. In such event, the claims
of the holders of the notes against the issuer of an invalid guarantee would be
subject to the prior payment of all liabilities of such guarantor. There can be
no assurance that, after providing for all prior claims, there would be
sufficient assets to satisfy the claims of the holders of the notes relating to
any voided guarantee.

We may not be able to purchase the notes in the event of a change of control.

Upon the occurrence of certain specific kinds of change of control events, we
will be required to make an offer to repurchase the notes at 101% of their
principal amount plus accrued interest and we will be required to repay our
senior credit facility in full. However, it is possible that we will not have
sufficient funds at the time of the change of control to make the required
repurchase of notes or to repay our senior credit facility. Even if we did have
sufficient funds to carry out such a repurchase, the financial effect of the
repurchase could cause us to default on our other indebtedness. See "Description
of the Notes--Certain Covenants--Purchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control."

Our acquisition strategy may not be successful.

We have recently made a number of acquisitions, including the Turner Road and
Corus acquisitions, and anticipate that we may, from time to time, acquire
additional businesses, assets or securities of companies that we believe would
provide a strategic fit with our business. Any other acquired business will need
to be integrated with our existing operations. There can be no assurance that we
will effectively assimilate the business or product offerings of acquired
companies into our business or product offerings. Any acquisitions also will be
accompanied by risks such as potential exposure to unknown liabilities of
acquired companies, the difficulty and expense of integrating the operations and
personnel of the acquired companies, the potential disruption to our

                                       6


business, the diversion of management time and attention, the impairment of
relationships with and the possible loss of key employees and customers of the
acquired business, the incurrence of amortization expenses if any acquisition is
accounted for as a purchase. Our failure to adequately manage the risks
associated with any acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on our
financial condition or results of operations.

The termination or non-renewal of imported beer distribution agreements could
have a material adverse effect on our business.

All of our imported beer products are marketed and sold pursuant to exclusive
distribution agreements with the suppliers of these products which are subject
to renewal from time to time. Our exclusive agreement to distribute Corona Extra
and our other Mexican beer brands in 25 primarily western U.S. states expires in
December 2006 and, subject to compliance with certain performance criteria,
continued retention of certain personnel and other terms of the agreement, will
be automatically renewed for additional terms of five years. Changes in control
of Constellation Brands, Inc. or its subsidiaries involved in importing the
Mexican beer brands, or changes in the chief executive officer of such
subsidiaries, may be a basis for the supplier, unless it consents to such
changes, to terminate the agreement. The supplier's consent to such changes may
not be unreasonably withheld. Prior to their expiration, these agreements may be
terminated if we fail to meet certain performance criteria. We believe that we
are currently in compliance with all of our material imported beer distribution
agreements. From time to time we have failed, and may in the future fail, to
satisfy certain performance criteria in our distribution agreements. It is
possible that our beer distribution agreements may not be renewed or may be
terminated prior to expiration.

Our business could be adversely affected by a general decline in the consumption
of products we sell.

In the United States, the overall per capita consumption of beverage alcohol
products by adults (ages 21 and over) has declined substantially over the past
20 years. These declines have been caused by a variety of factors including:

     .    increased concern about the health consequences of consuming beverage
          alcohol products and about drinking and driving;

     .    a trend toward a healthier diet including lighter, lower calorie
          beverages such as diet soft drinks, juices and water products;

     .    the increased activity of anti-alcohol consumer groups; and

     .    increased federal and state excise taxes.

An increase in excise taxes and government restrictions could have a material
adverse effect on our business.

In the United States, the federal government and individual states impose excise
taxes on beverage alcohol products in varying amounts which have been subject to
change. Increases in excise taxes on beverage alcohol products, if enacted,
could materially and adversely affect our financial condition or results of
operations. In addition, the beverage alcohol products industry is subject to
extensive regulation by state and federal agencies. The federal U.S. Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and the various state liquor authorities regulate
such matters as licensing requirements, trade and pricing practices, permitted
and required labeling, advertising and relations with wholesalers and retailers.
In recent years, federal and state regulators have required warning labels and
signage. In the United Kingdom, Matthew Clark carries on its operations under a
Customs and Excise License. Licenses are required for all premises where wine is
produced. Matthew Clark holds a license to act as an excise warehouse operator
and registrations have been secured for the production of cider and bottled
water. New or revised regulations or increased licensing fees and requirements
could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of
operations.

We rely on the performance of wholesale distributors for the success of our
business.

In the United States, we sell our products principally to wholesalers for resale
to retail outlets including grocery stores, package liquor stores, club and
discount stores and restaurants. The replacement or poor performance of our
major wholesalers or our inability to collect accounts receivable from our major
wholesalers could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and
financial condition. Distribution channels for beverage alcohol products have
been characterized in recent years by rapid change, including consolidations of
certain wholesalers. In addition, wholesalers and retailers of our products
offer products which compete directly with our products for retail shelf space
and consumer purchases. Accordingly, there is a risk that these wholesalers or
retailers may give higher priority to products of our competitors. In the
future, our wholesalers and retailers may not continue to purchase our products
or provide our products with adequate levels of promotional support.

We generally do not have long-term supply contracts and we are subject to
substantial price fluctuations for grapes and grape-related materials, and we
have a limited group of suppliers of glass bottles.

                                       7


Our business is heavily dependent upon raw materials, such as grapes, grape
juice concentrate, grains, alcohol and packaging materials from third-party
suppliers. We could experience raw material supply, production or shipment
difficulties which could adversely affect our ability to supply goods to our
customers. We are also directly affected by increases in the costs of such raw
materials. In the past we have experienced dramatic increases in the cost of
grapes. Although we believe we have adequate sources of grape supplies, in the
event demand for certain wine products exceeds expectations, we could experience
shortages. In addition, one of our largest components of cost of goods sold is
that of glass bottles, which have only a small number of producers. The
inability of any of our glass bottle suppliers to satisfy our requirements could
adversely affect our business.

Competition could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We are in a highly competitive industry and the dollar amount, and unit volume,
of our sales could be negatively affected by our inability to maintain or
increase prices, changes in geographic or product mix, a general decline in
beverage alcohol consumption or the decision of our wholesale customers,
retailers or consumers to purchase competitive products instead of our products.
Wholesaler, retailer and consumer purchasing decisions are influenced by, among
other things, the perceived absolute or relative overall value of our products,
including their quality or pricing, compared to competitive products. Unit
volume and dollar sales could also be affected by pricing, purchasing,
financing, operational, advertising or promotional decisions made by wholesalers
and retailers which could affect their supply of, or consumer demand for, our
products. We could also experience higher than expected selling, general and
administrative expenses if we find it necessary to increase the number of our
personnel or our advertising or promotional expenditures to maintain our
competitive position or for other reasons.

We are controlled by the Sands family.

Our outstanding capital stock consists of class A common stock and class B
common stock. Holders of class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share
and are entitled, as a class, to elect one fourth of the members of our board of
directors. Holders of class B common stock are entitled to 10 votes per share
and are entitled, as a class, to elect the remaining directors. As of March 31,
2001, the Sands family beneficially owned approximately 11% of the outstanding
shares of class A common stock (exclusive of shares of class A common stock
issuable pursuant to the conversion feature of the class B common stock owned by
the Sands family) and approximately 92% of the outstanding shares of class B
common stock. On all matters other than the election of directors, the Sands
family has the ability to vote approximately 62% of the votes entitled to be
cast by holders of our outstanding capital stock, voting as a single class.
Consequently, we are essentially controlled by the Sands family and they would
generally have sufficient voting power to determine the outcome of any corporate
transaction or other matter submitted to our stockholders for approval.

                              The Exchange Offer

Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offer

In connection with the issuance of the old notes, we entered into a registration
rights agreement. Under the registration rights agreement, we agreed to:


     .    use our reasonable best efforts to file a registration statement with
          the Securities and Exchange Commission for an exchange of the new
          notes for the old notes under the Securities Act and to keep the
          registration statement effective until the closing of the exchange
          offer;

     .    use our reasonable best efforts to cause the exchange offer to be
          consummated within 210 days following the original issuance of the old
          notes;

     .    keep the exchange offer open for acceptance for a period of not less
          than 20 business days after the date notice thereof is mailed to
          holders of the old notes, or longer if required by applicable law; and

     .    accept for exchange all old notes validly tendered and not validly
          withdrawn in the exchange offer in accordance with the terms of the
          registration statement and letter of transmittal.

As soon as practicable after the exchange offer registration statement becomes
effective, we will offer eligible holders of the old notes the opportunity to
exchange their old notes for new notes registered under the Securities Act.
Holders are eligible if they are not prohibited by any law or policy of the
Securities and Exchange Commission from participating in this exchange offer.
The new notes will be identical to the old notes except that the new notes will
not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions, registration rights or
liquidated damages.

In the event that due to a change in current interpretations by the Securities
and Exchange Commission, we are not permitted to effect the exchange offer, it
is contemplated that we will instead file a shelf registration statement
covering resales by the holders of the old notes and will use our reasonable
best efforts to cause the shelf registration statement to become effective and
to keep the shelf registration statement effective for a maximum of two years
from the closing date, which is the date we delivered the old notes to their
initial purchasers.

The description of the registration rights agreement contained in this section
is a summary only. For more information, you should review the provisions of the
registration rights agreement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus
is a part.

In this section entitled "The Exchange Offer," the term "holder" includes any
person that owns a beneficial interest in the old notes.

Terms of the Exchange Offer

The expiration date of the exchange offer is 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
July 10, 2001, unless we extend the exchange offer.

The exchange offer is not conditioned upon holders tendering a minimum principal
amount of old notes.

You do not have any appraisal or dissenters' rights in the exchange offer. If
you do not tender old notes or you tender old notes that we do not accept, your
old notes will remain outstanding. Any old notes will be entitled to the
benefits of the indenture under which they were issued. See "Risk Factors" for
more information regarding old notes that remain outstanding after the exchange
offer.

After the expiration date, we will return to you any tendered old notes that we
did not accept for exchange.

You will not have to pay brokerage commissions or fees or transfer taxes for
exchanging your notes if you follow the instructions in the letter of
transmittal. We will pay the charges and expenses, other than those taxes
described below, in the exchange offer. See "-Delivery of Documents by Exchange
Agent; Fees and Expenses" below for further information regarding fees and
expenses. Neither we nor our board of directors recommends that you tender or
not tender old notes in the exchange offer. In addition, we have not authorized
anyone to make any recommendation. You must decide whether to tender in the
exchange offer and, if so, the aggregate amount of old notes to tender.

                                       9


We have the right, in accordance with applicable law, at any time:

     .    to delay the acceptance of the old notes;

     .    to terminate the exchange offer if we determine that any of the
          conditions to the exchange offer have not occurred or have not been
          satisfied;

     .    to extend the expiration date of the exchange offer and keep all old
          notes tendered other than those notes properly withdrawn; and

     .    to waive any condition or amend the terms of the exchange offer.

If we materially change the exchange offer, or if we waive a material condition
of the exchange offer, we will extend the exchange offer if required by Rule
14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act. If we exercise any of the rights listed
above, we will promptly give written notice of the action to the exchange agent,
as described below under "-Exchange Agent", and we will issue a release to
appropriate news agencies. In the case of an extension, an announcement will be
made no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after
the previously scheduled expiration date.

Acceptance of Old Notes for Exchange, and Issuance of New Notes

We will issue to the exchange agent new notes for old notes tendered and
accepted and not withdrawn promptly after the expiration date. The exchange
agent might not deliver the new notes to all tendering holders at the same time.
The timing of delivery depends upon when the exchange agent receives and
processes the required documents.

We will be deemed to have exchanged old notes validly tendered and not withdrawn
when we give written notice to the exchange agent of their acceptance. The
exchange agent is our agent for receiving tenders of old notes, letters of
transmittal and related documents. If for any reason, we:

     .    delay the acceptance or exchange of any old notes, or

     .    extend the exchange offer, or

     .    are unable to accept or exchange notes,

then the exchange agent may, on our behalf and subject to Rule 14e-1(c) under
the Securities Exchange Act, retain tendered notes. Old notes that the exchange
agent retains may not be withdrawn, except according to the withdrawal
procedures outlined below in "Procedures for Tendering Old Notes-Withdrawal of
Tenders."

In tendering old notes, you must warrant in the letter of transmittal or in an
agent's message, which is described below, that:

     .    you have full power and authority to tender, exchange, sell, assign
          and transfer old notes;

     .    we will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title to the
          tendered old notes, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges
          and other encumbrances; and

     .    the old notes tendered for exchange are not subject to any adverse
          claims or proxies.

You also must warrant and agree that you will, upon request, execute and deliver
any additional documents that either we or the exchange agent requests to
complete the exchange, sale, assignment, and transfer of the old notes.

Procedures for Tendering Old Notes

To tender old notes in the exchange offer, the holder of the notes must transfer
such notes in accordance with DTC's automated transfer procedures ("ATOP").

In lieu of delivering a letter of transmittal to the exchange agent, a computer-
generated message, in which the holder of the old notes acknowledges and agrees
to be bound by the terms of the letter of transmittal, must be transmitted by
DTC on behalf of a holder and received by the exchange agent prior to 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the expiration date.

The tender by a holder of old notes will constitute an agreement between the
holder and us in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth herein and in the letter of transmittal.

                                       10


No letter of transmittal should be sent to us.

Any beneficial holder whose old notes are held through its broker, dealer,
commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and who wishes to tender should
contact such nominee promptly and instruct such nominee to tender on its behalf.

Determination of Validity

All the questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, time of receipt,
acceptance and withdrawal of the tendered old notes will be determined by us in
our sole discretion, which determinations will be final and binding.  We reserve
the absolute right to reject any and all old notes not validly tendered or any
old notes our acceptance of which would, in the opinion of our counsel, be
unlawful.  We also reserve the absolute right to waive any irregularities or
conditions of tender as to particular old notes.  Our interpretation of the
terms and conditions of the exchange offer, including the instructions in the
letter of transmittal, will be final and binding on parties.  Unless waived, any
defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of old notes must be cured
within such time as we shall determine.  Neither we, the exchange agent, nor any
other person shall be under any duty to give notification of defects or
irregularities with respect to tenders of old notes, and none of them incur any
liability for failure to give such notification.  Tenders of old notes will not
be deemed to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived.
Any old notes received by the exchange agent that are not properly tendered and
as to which the defects or irregularities have not been cured or waived will be
returned without cost by the exchange agent to the tendering holder of such old
notes unless otherwise provided in the letter of transmittal, as soon as
practicable following the expiration date.

In addition, we reserve the right in our sole discretion to:

     .    purchase or make offers for any old notes that remain outstanding
          subsequent to the expiration date, or to terminate the exchange offer;
          and

     .    to the extent permitted by applicable law, purchase old notes in the
          open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.

The terms of any such purchases or offers may differ from the terms of the
exchange offer.

By tendering, each holder of old notes will represent to us that, among other
things, the new notes acquired pursuant to the exchange offer are being obtained
in the ordinary course of business of the person receiving such new notes,
whether or not such person is the holder, that neither the holder nor any other
person has an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the
distribution of the new notes, and that neither the holder nor any such other
person is an "affiliate" of ours within the meaning of Rule 405 under the
Securities Act.

Withdrawal of Tenders

Except as otherwise provided herein, tenders of old notes may be withdrawn at
any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date unless
previously accepted for exchange.

To withdraw a tender of old notes in the exchange offer, a notice of withdrawal
must be transmitted by DTC and received by the exchange agent, in accordance
with the standard operating procedures of DTC on behalf of a holder, prior to
5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date and prior to acceptance
for exchange thereof by us.  Any such notice of withdrawal must:

     .    specify the name of the person having deposited the old notes to be
          withdrawn;

     .    identify the old notes to be withdrawn, including the principal amount
          of such old notes; and

     .    be signed by the depositor in the same manner as the original
          signature on the letter of transmittal by which such old notes were
          tendered, or be accompanied by documents of transfer sufficient to
          permit the trustee with respect to the old notes to register the
          transfer of such old notes into the name of the depositor withdrawing
          the tender.

All questions as to the validity, form and eligibility, including time of
receipt, for such withdrawal notices will be determined by us, and our
determination shall be final and binding on all parties.  Any old notes so
withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for purposes of the
exchange offer and no exchange notes will be issued with respect thereto unless
the old notes so withdrawn are validly tendered.  Any old notes which have been
tendered but which are not accepted for exchange will be returned to the holder
thereof without cost to such holder as soon as practicable after withdrawal,
rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offer.  Properly withdrawn
old notes may be tendered by following one of the procedures for tendering
described above at any time prior to the expiration date.

                                       11


Conditions to the Exchange Offer

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the exchange offer, we are not required
to accept for exchange, or to issue new notes in exchange for, any old notes and
may terminate or amend the exchange offer if at any time before the acceptance
of the old notes for exchange or the exchange of the new notes for the old
notes, if

     .    such acceptance or issuance would violate applicable law or any
          applicable interpretation of the Securities and Exchange Commission's
          staff;

     .    any action or proceeding is instituted or threatened in any court or
          by any governmental agency which might materially impair our ability
          to proceed with the exchange offer, or there has occurred in any
          existing action or proceeding that would materially impair our ability
          to consummate the exchange offer; or

     .    we have not obtained all governmental approvals that we deem necessary
          to consummate the exchange offer.

The foregoing conditions are for our sole benefit and any of them may be
asserted by us regardless of the circumstances giving rise to such condition or
may be waived by us in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in our
sole discretion.  Our failure at any time to exercise the foregoing rights is
not to be deemed a waiver of any of our rights and each of our rights shall be
deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to time.

Exchange Agent

The Bank of New York has been appointed as exchange agent for the exchange of
the old notes.  Questions and requests for assistance relating to the exchange
of the old notes and requests for additional copies of this prospectus or of the
letter of transmittal should be directed to the exchange agent at The Bank of
New York (telephone 212-815-5920).

Resales of New Notes

Based on the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission's letters to other
parties, we believe that holders of new notes, other than broker-dealers, can
offer the new notes for resale, resell and otherwise transfer the new notes
without delivering a prospectus to prospective purchasers.  However, you must
acquire the new notes in the ordinary course of business and have no intention
of engaging in a distribution of the new notes, as a "distribution" is defined
by the Securities Act.  We are exchanging the old notes for new notes in
reliance upon the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission's position set
forth in interpretive letters to third parties in other similar transactions.
We will not seek our own interpretive letter.  As a result, we cannot assure you
that the staff will take the same position on this exchange offer as it did in
interpretive letters to other parties.

Delivery of Documents by Exchange Agent; Fees and Expenses

The principal distribution of this prospectus and the letter of transmittal is
being made by mail by the exchange agent. We will pay the exchange agent
customary fees for its services, reimburse the exchange agent for its reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the provision of these
services and pay other expenses, including fees and expenses of the trustee,
filing fees, accounting and legal fees, and printing and distribution expenses.
We will not make any payment to brokers, dealers, or others soliciting
acceptances of the exchange offer. We will, however, reimburse reasonable
expenses incurred by brokers and dealers in forwarding this prospectus and the
other exchange offer materials to the holders of the old notes. Solicitations
may be made by telephone, facsimile, or in person by our officers and regular
employees, and also by persons so engaged by the exchange agent, although no
payment will be made to any persons engaged by the exchange agent for soliciting
acceptances of the exchange offer.

Transfer Taxes

You will not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in connection with any
tender of old notes for exchange, except if you instruct us to register new
notes in the name of, or request that old notes not tendered or not accepted in
the exchange offer be returned to, a person other than the registered tendering
holder, you will be responsible for the payment of any applicable transfer tax
thereon.

Consequences of Failure to Exchange

To the extent we accept old notes in the exchange offer, the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding old notes will decline.  Consequently, liquidity in the
market for old notes could be adversely affected.  See "Risk Factors-The
liquidity of unexchanged old notes will be substantially limited following the
exchange offer."

                                       12


Other

Participation in the exchange offer is voluntary, and holders of old notes
should carefully consider whether to participate.  Holders of old notes are
urged to consult their financial and tax advisors in making their own decisions
on which action to take.

Holders of old notes who do not tender their old notes in the exchange offer
will continue to hold their old notes and will be entitled to all the rights,
and limitations applicable thereto.  To the extent that old notes are tendered
and accepted in the exchange offer, the trading market for untendered shares of
old notes could be adversely affected.

We may in the future seek to acquire untendered old notes in open market or
privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers or
otherwise.  We have no present plan to acquire any old notes that are not
tendered in the exchange offer.

                                Use of Proceeds

We will not receive any cash proceeds from the exchange of old notes for new
notes in the exchange offer.

                                       13

                            Selected Financial Data

The following table sets forth our selected financial data as of and for each of
the five fiscal years in the period ended February 28, 2001. The income
statement data for the three fiscal years in the period ended February 28, 2001,
and the balance sheet data as of February 28, 2001, and February 29, 2000,
have been derived from our audited historical financial statements incorporated
by reference into this prospectus, which financial statements have been audited
by Arthur Andersen LLP, independent public accountants, as indicated on their
report thereon. The income statement data and the balance sheet data as of and
for each of the two fiscal years in the period ended February 28, 1998, have
been derived from our audited historical financial statements. The selected
financial data below reflect results of Matthew Clark since December 1, 1998,
results of several well-known Canadian whisky brands, including Black Velvet,
and related assets since their acquisition from Diageo plc and certain of its
affiliates on April 9, 1999, and results of the Franciscan Estates and Simi
acquisitions since June 4, 1999. The earnings per share amounts in the income
statement data below reflect the two-for-one stock split that we announced on
April 12, 2001. See "Explanatory Note."

It is important that you read the selected financial data presented below in
conjunction with the historical financial statements we have filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission that are incorporated by reference into this
prospectus. See "Where You Can Find More Information."

For the purpose of calculating the ratio of earnings to fixed charges in the
table below, "earnings" represent income before provision for income taxes plus
fixed charges. "Fixed charges" consist of interest expensed and capitalized,
amortization of debt issuance costs, amortization of discount on debt and the
portion of rental expense which management believes is representative of the
interest component of lease expense. The ratio of earnings to combined fixed
charges and preferred stock dividend requirements is the same as the ratio of
earnings to fixed charges.

                           Description of the Notes

The terms of the new notes to be issued in the exchange offer and the
outstanding old notes are identical, except for transfer restrictions,
registration rights, and liquidated damages provisions that apply to the old
notes.  Any old notes that remain outstanding after the exchange offer, together
with new notes issued in the exchange offer, will be treated as a single class
of securities under the Indenture for voting purposes.  When we refer to the
term "note" or "notes" in this section, we are referring to both the outstanding
old notes and the new notes to be issued in the exchange offer.  When we refer
in this section to "holders" of the notes, we are referring to those persons who
are the registered holders of notes on the books of the registrar appointed
under the Indenture.  For definitions of certain capitalized terms used in the
following summary, including the term "Company", see "--Certain Definitions."

The old notes have been, and the new notes will be, issued under the indenture,
dated as of February 21, 2001 (the "Indenture"), among the Company, the
Guarantors, and BNY Midwest Trust Company, as trustee (the "Trustee").  The
Indenture is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this
prospectus forms a part.  The principal amount of notes that may be issued under
the Indenture is unlimited.

The following is a summary of the material provisions of the Indenture.  It does
not purport to be complete, and where reference is made to particular provisions
of the Indenture, such provisions, including the definitions of certain terms,
are qualified in their entirety by reference to all of the provisions of the
Indenture and those terms made a part of the Indenture by the Trust Indenture
Act of 1939.

General

The notes will mature on February 15, 2008 and will be unsecured senior
obligations of the Company and will rank pari passu in right of payment to all
of our existing and future unsecured senior Indebtedness. Each note will bear
interest at the rate of 8% per annum from February 21, 2001 or from the most
recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid. Interest on the
notes will be payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year,
commencing August 15, 2001, to the Person in whose name the note (or any
predecessor note) is registered at the close of business on the February 1 or
August 1 next preceding such interest payment date. The entire aggregate
principal amount of the notes will become due and payable upon maturity.

Payment of the notes is guaranteed unconditionally by the Guarantors on a senior
basis. The Guarantors are comprised of all of the direct and indirect Domestic
Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company and direct and indirect Foreign
Restricted Subsidiaries that in each case guarantee Other Indebtedness. The
Guarantors (except Canandaigua B.V. and M.J. Lewis Corp.) have also guaranteed
all obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement. No holder of any
other Indebtedness of the Company will have the benefit of any guarantees which
the holders of the notes do not have.

The notes are direct, senior unsecured obligations of the Company and rank and
will rank pari passu, without any preferences among themselves, with all other
outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness, present and future.

Optional Redemption

The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company
at any time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the
principal amount of such notes, and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent
(as defined below), the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled
payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such
payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) discounted to the
date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 50
basis points plus, in each case, accrued interest thereon to the date of
redemption.

As used herein:

"Adjusted Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate
per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the
Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable
Treasury Price for such redemption date.

"Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury Security selected
by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of
the notes to be redeemed, that would be utilized, at the time of selection and
in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of
corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such
notes.

                                       16


"Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the
average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date,
after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations, or (ii) if the Trustee obtains fewer than three such Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Quotations.

"Quotation Agent" means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

"Reference Treasury Dealer" means each of (x) Chase Securities Inc., and its
respective successors; provided, however, that if the foregoing shall cease to
be a primary United States Treasury Securities dealer in New York City (a
"Primary Treasury Dealer"), the Company shall substitute therefor another
Primary Treasury Dealer; and (y) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by
the Company.

"Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each Reference
Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the
Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in
writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60
days before the redemption date to each holder of the notes to be redeemed.
Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the
redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the notes or portions thereof
called for redemption.

In the event that less than all of the notes are to be redeemed at any time
pursuant to an optional redemption, selection of such notes for redemption will
be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal U.S.
securities exchange, if any, on which the notes are listed or, if the notes are
not then listed on a U.S. securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by
such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate; provided, however,
that no notes of a principal amount of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.
Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 but not
more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of notes to be
redeemed at its registered address. If any note is to be redeemed in part only,
the notice of redemption that relates to such note shall state the portion of
the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new note in a principal amount
equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the holder
thereof upon cancellation of the original note. On and after the redemption
date, interest will cease to accrue on notes or portions thereof called for
redemption as long as the Company has deposited with the paying agent for the
notes funds in satisfaction of the applicable redemption price pursuant to the
Indenture. Notice of optional redemption will be published in the manner
described below under "--Notices."

Sinking Fund

The notes will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

Guarantees of the Notes

The Indenture provides that each of the Guarantors will unconditionally
guarantee (the "Guarantees") on a senior basis, jointly and severally, all of
the Company's obligations under the notes, including its obligations to pay
principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the notes. The
Guarantees will be general unsecured obligations of the Guarantors. The
Guarantors (except for Canandaigua B.V. and M.J. Lewis Corp.) have also
guaranteed all obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement. The
obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by (i) first priority pledges
of 100% of the capital stock of Canandaigua Limited and all of the Company's
domestic operating subsidiaries and (ii) first priority pledges of 65% of the
capital stock held by the Company of Matthew Clark plc; B.B. Servicios, S.A. de
C.V.; Canandaigua World Sales Limited; and Schenley Distilleries Inc./Les
Distelleries Schenley Inc. The obligations of each Guarantor are limited to the
maximum amount which, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed
liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or
payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the
obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its
contribution obligations under the Indenture, will result in the obligations of
such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or
fraudulent transfer under federal or state law. Each Guarantor that makes a
payment or distribution under a Guarantee shall be entitled to a contribution
from each other Guarantor in a pro rata amount, based on the net assets of each
Guarantor determined in accordance with GAAP.

The Company shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary issuing a Guarantee after the
Issue Date to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in
form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to which such Restricted
Subsidiary shall become a party to the Indenture and thereby unconditionally
guarantee all of the Company's Obligations under the notes and the Indenture on
the terms set forth therein. Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall
(unless released in accordance with the terms of the Indenture) be a Guarantor
for all purposes of the Indenture.

                                       17


The Indenture provides that if the notes are defeased in accordance with the
terms of the Indenture, or if, subject to the requirements of the first
paragraph under "Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets" all or substantially all
of the assets of any Guarantor or all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor are
sold (including by issuance or otherwise) by the Company in a transaction
constituting an Asset Sale, and if (x) the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset
Sale are used in accordance with the covenant described under "Certain
Covenants--Limitation on Sale of Assets" or (y) the Company delivers to the
Trustee an Officers' Certificate to the effect that the Net Cash Proceeds from
such Asset Sale shall be used in accordance with the covenant described under
"Certain Covenants--Limitation on Sale of Assets" and within the time limits
specified by such covenant, then such Guarantor or the Guarantors, as the case
may be (in the event of a defeasance of the notes or a sale or other disposition
of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation acquiring such
assets (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all
of the assets of such Guarantor) shall be released and discharged of its
Guarantee obligations in respect of the Indenture and the notes.

Any Guarantor that is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to and in
accordance with "Certain Covenants--Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries"
below shall upon such Designation be released and discharged of its Guarantee
obligations in respect of the Indenture and the notes and any Unrestricted
Subsidiary whose Designation is revoked pursuant to "Certain Covenants-
Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries" below will be required to become a
Guarantor in accordance with the procedure described in the third preceding
paragraph.

Certain Covenants

The Indenture contains, among others, the following covenants:

Limitation on Indebtedness

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
Incur any Indebtedness (including any Acquired Indebtedness), except that the
Company and any Guarantor may Incur Indebtedness (including any Acquired
Indebtedness) and any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor may Incur
Acquired Indebtedness if, in each case, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio for the Company for the four full fiscal quarters immediately preceding
the Incurrence of such Indebtedness taken as one period (and after giving pro
forma effect to (i) the Incurrence of such Indebtedness and (if applicable) the
application of the net proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other
Indebtedness, as if such Indebtedness was Incurred, and the application of such
proceeds occurred, at the beginning of such four-quarter period; (ii) the
Incurrence, repayment or retirement of any other Indebtedness by the Company and
its Restricted Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period as
if such Indebtedness was Incurred, repaid or retired at the beginning of such
four-quarter period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of
Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon
the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such four-quarter period);
(iii) in the case of Acquired Indebtedness, the related acquisition as if such
acquisition occurred at the beginning of such four quarter period; and (iv) any
acquisition or disposition by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries of any
company or any business or any assets out of the ordinary course of business,
whether by merger, stock purchase or sale or asset purchase or sale, or any
related repayment of Indebtedness, in each case since the first day of such
four-quarter period, assuming such acquisition or disposition had been
consummated on the first day of such four-quarter period) is equal to at least
2.00:1.00.

The foregoing limitation will not apply to the incurrence of any of the
following (collectively "Permitted Indebtedness"):

     (i)    Indebtedness of the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary under the
            Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount at any one time
            outstanding not to exceed an amount equal to the greater of (x) $1.0
            billion, minus the amount of any repayment of such Indebtedness

            Limitation on Sale of Assets" below and (y) the Borrowing Base;

     (ii)   Indebtedness of the Company pursuant to the notes and other

            Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is made pursuant to an
            intercompany note in the form attached to the Indenture and is
            subordinated in right of payment from and after such time as the
            notes shall become due and payable (whether at Stated Maturity,
            acceleration or otherwise) to the payment and performance of the
            Company's obligations under the notes; provided, further that any
            disposition, pledge or transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person
            (other than a disposition, pledge or transfer to a Restricted
            Subsidiary or a pledge to or for the benefit of the lenders under
            the Credit Agreement) shall be deemed to be an incurrence of such
            Indebtedness by the obligor not permitted by this clause (iv);

             not a Guarantor, (x) any such Indebtedness is made pursuant to an
             intercompany note in the form attached to the Indenture and (y) any
             such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment from
             and after such time as the obligations under the Guarantee by such
             Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary shall become due and payable to
             the payment and performance of such Wholly Owned Restricted
             Subsidiary's obligations under its Guarantee; provided, further
             that (a) any disposition, pledge or transfer of any such
             Indebtedness to a Person (other than a disposition, pledge or
             transfer to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or a pledge to
             or for the benefit of the lenders under the Credit Agreement) shall
             be deemed to be an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the obligor
             not permitted by this clause (v), and (b) any transaction pursuant
             to which any Restricted Subsidiary, which has Indebtedness owing to
             the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary, ceases to be a
             Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be the incurrence of
             Indebtedness by such Restricted Subsidiary that is not permitted by
             this clause (v);

     (vi)    guarantees of any Restricted Subsidiary made in accordance with the
             provisions of "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Guarantees by

             the ordinary course of business (and not for speculative purposes)
             designed to protect against fluctuations in: (x) interest rates in
             respect of Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted
             Subsidiaries, as long as such obligations at the time incurred do
             not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness then
             outstanding or in good faith anticipated to be outstanding within
             90 days of such Incurrence, (y) currencies or (z) commodities;

             described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of this definition of
             "Permitted Indebtedness," including any successive refinancings so
             long as the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness represented
             thereby is not increased by such refinancing plus the lesser of (1)
             the stated amount of any premium, interest or other payment
             required to be paid in connection with such a refinancing pursuant
             to the terms of the Indebtedness being refinanced or (2) the amount

               aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company at the time
               of such conversion or exchange; plus

          (E)  in the event the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has made

               amount equal to the Company's Investment in such Unrestricted
               Subsidiary (provided that such amount shall not in any case
               exceed the Designation Amount with respect to such Restricted
               Subsidiary upon its Designation); plus

          (G)  $50.0 million; minus

          (H)  the Designation Amount (measured as of the date of Designation)
               with respect to any Subsidiary of the Company which has been
               designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after November 17, 1999
               in accordance with "Certain Covenants--Designation of

            declaration thereof, if at such date of declaration such payment
            would be permitted by the provisions of paragraph (a) of this
            Section and such payment shall be deemed to have been paid on such
            date of declaration for purposes of the calculation required by
            paragraph (a) of this covenant;

     (ii)   the repurchase, redemption, or other acquisition or retirement of
            any shares of any class of Capital Stock of the Company in exchange

        principal amount that does not exceed the principal amount so refinanced
        (or, if such Subordinated Indebtedness provides for an amount less than
        the principal amount thereof to be due and payable upon a declaration or
        acceleration thereof, then such lesser amount as of the date of
        determination), plus the lesser of (x) the stated amount of any premium,
        interest or other payment required to be paid in connection with such a
        refinancing pursuant to the terms of the Indebtedness being refinanced

directly or indirectly, enter into or suffer to exist any transaction or series

exchange or lease of assets, property or services) with any Affiliate of the
Company (other than the Company or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary) unless

  (i)   such transaction or series of transactions is in writing on terms that
        are no less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
        the case may be, than would be available in a comparable transaction in
        arm's-length dealings with an unrelated third party;

  (ii)  with respect to any transaction or series of transactions involving
        aggregate payments in excess of $10.0 million, the Company delivers an
        officers' certificate to the Trustee certifying that such transaction or

provided, however, that this provision shall not apply to any transaction with
an officer or director of the Company entered into in the ordinary course of
business (including compensation or employee benefit arrangements with any
officer or director of the Company).

or indirectly, create, Incur, affirm or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind
upon any of its property or assets (including any intercompany notes), owned at
the date of the Indenture or acquired after the date of the Indenture, or any
income or profits therefrom, except if the notes (or a Guarantee, in the case of
Liens of a Guarantor) are directly secured equally and ratably with (or prior to
in the case of Liens with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness or Indebtedness
of a Guarantor subordinated in right of payment to any Guarantee) the obligation
or liability secured by such Lien, excluding, however, from the operation of the
foregoing any of the following:

          incurred, created, assumed or permitted to exist and arising by,
          through or under a landlord or owner of the leased property, with or
          without consent of the lessee), none of which materially impairs the
          use of any parcel of property material to the operation of the
          business of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or the value of
          such property for the purpose of such business;

    Guarantor securing Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement;

(d) any Lien securing Acquired Indebtedness created prior to (and not created in
    connection with, or in contemplation of) the incurrence of such Indebtedness
    by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, in each case which Indebtedness
    is permitted under the provisions of "Certain Covenants--Limitation on
    Indebtedness"; provided that any such Lien only extends to the assets that
    were subject to such lien securing such Acquired Indebtedness prior to the
    related transaction by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries; and

(e) any extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement, in whole or in part, of
    any Lien described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (d) so long as the

    Asset Sale and from which the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is
    released and (B) any notes or other obligations received by the Company or
    any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are immediately
    converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, shall be
    deemed cash for purposes of this covenant, and (ii) the Company or such
    Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale
    at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares or assets sold (other
    than in the case of an involuntary Asset Sale, as determined by the board of
    directors of the Company and evidenced in a board resolution).

(b) If all or a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale are not
    required to be applied to repay permanently any secured Indebtedness then
    outstanding as required by the terms thereof or the Company determines not
    to apply such Net Cash Proceeds to the permanent repayment of such secured
    Indebtedness or if no secured Indebtedness is then outstanding, then the
    Company may within 12 months of the Asset Sale, invest the Net Cash Proceeds
    in other properties and assets that (as determined by the Board of Directors
    of the Company) replace the properties and assets that were the subject of
    the Asset Sale or in properties and assets that will be used in the
    businesses of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries as existing at such
    time or reasonably related thereto. The amount of such Net Cash Proceeds
    neither used to permanently repay or prepay secured Indebtedness nor used or
    invested as set forth in this paragraph constitutes "Excess Proceeds."

(c) When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals $10.0 million or more,
    the Company shall apply the Excess Proceeds to the repayment of the notes
    and any Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be repurchased under the
    instrument governing such Pari Passu Indebtedness as follows: (a) the
    Company shall make an offer to purchase (an "Offer") from all holders of the
    notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture in the
    maximum principal amount (expressed as a multiple of $1,000) of notes that
    may be purchased out of an amount (the "Note Amount") equal to the product
    of such Excess Proceeds multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is
    the outstanding principal amount of the notes, and the

                                       22


     denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the
     notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness (subject to proration in the event
     such amount is less than the aggregate Offered Price (as defined) of all
     notes tendered) and (b) to the extent required by such Pari Passu
     Indebtedness to permanently reduce the principal amount of such Pari Passu
     Indebtedness, the Company shall make an offer to purchase or otherwise
     repurchase or redeem Pari Passu Indebtedness (a "Pari Passu Offer") in an
     amount (the "Pari Passu Debt Amount") equal to the excess of the Excess
     Proceeds over the Note Amount; provided that in no event shall the Pari
     Passu Debt Amount exceed the principal amount of such Pari Passu
     Indebtedness plus the amount of any premium required to be paid to
     repurchase such Pari Passu Indebtedness. The offer price shall be payable
     in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes
     plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date (the "Offer Date")
     such Offer is consummated (the "Offered Price"), in accordance with the
     procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate
     Offered Price of the notes tendered pursuant to the Offer is less than the
     Note Amount relating thereto or the aggregate amount of Pari Passu
     Indebtedness that is purchased is less than the Pari Passu Debt Amount (the
     amount of such shortfall, if any, constituting a "Deficiency"), the Company
     shall use such Deficiency in the business of the Company and its Restricted
     Subsidiaries. Upon completion of the purchase of all the notes tendered
     pursuant to an Offer and the purchase of the Pari Passu Indebtedness
     pursuant to a Pari Passu Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds, if any,
     shall be reset at zero.

(d)  If the Company becomes obligated to make an Offer pursuant to clause (c)
     above, the notes shall be purchased by the Company, at the option of the
     holder thereof, in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000, on a
     date that is not earlier than 45 days and not later than 60 days from the
     date the notice is given to holders, or such later date as may be necessary
     for the Company to comply with the requirements under the Exchange Act,
     subject to proration in the event the Note Amount is less than the
     aggregate Offered Price of all notes tendered.

(e)  The Company shall comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including
     Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws
     or regulations in connection with an Offer.

(f)  The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, create or
     permit to exist or become effective any restriction (other than
     restrictions existing under Indebtedness as in effect on the date of the
     Indenture) as such Indebtedness may be refinanced from time to time,
     provided that such restrictions are no less favorable to the holders of
     notes than those existing on the date of the Indenture that would
     materially impair the ability of the Company to make an Offer to purchase
     the notes or, if such Offer is made, to pay for the notes tendered for
     purchase.

(g)  The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, to
     engage in any Asset Swaps, unless: (i) at the time of entering into such
     Asset Swap, and immediately after giving effect to such Asset Swap, no
     Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would
     occur as a consequence thereof; (ii) in the event such Asset Swap involves
     an aggregate amount in excess of $10.0 million, the terms of such Asset
     Swap have been approved by a majority of the members of the board of
     directors of the Company which determination shall include a determination
     that the Fair Market Value of the assets being received in such swap are at
     least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets being swapped and (iii)
     in the event such Asset Swap involves an aggregate amount in excess of
     $20.0 million, the Company has also received a written opinion from an
     independent investment banking firm of nationally recognized standing or an
     independent public accounting firm of nationally recognized standing that
     such Asset Swap is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
     the case may be, from a financial point of view.

Limitation on Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries

The Indenture provides that in the event the Company (i) organizes or acquires
any Domestic Restricted Subsidiary after November 17, 1999 that is not a
Guarantor and causes or permits such Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or
indirectly, guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness ("Other Indebtedness") of
the Company or any Guarantor or (ii) causes or permits any Foreign Restricted
Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, guarantee the
payment of any Other Indebtedness, then, in each case the Company shall cause
such Restricted Subsidiary to simultaneously execute and deliver a supplemental
indenture to the Indenture pursuant to which it will become a Guarantor under
the Indenture; provided, however, that in the event a Domestic Restricted
Subsidiary is acquired in a transaction in which a merger agreement is entered
into, such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary shall not be required to execute and
deliver such supplemental indenture until the consummation of the merger
contemplated by any such merger agreement; provided, further, that if such Other
Indebtedness is (i) Indebtedness that is ranked pari passu in right of payment
with the notes or the Guarantees of such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may
be, the Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary shall be pari passu in right of
payment with the guarantee of the Other Indebtedness; or (ii) Subordinated
Indebtedness, the Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary shall be senior in
right of payment to the guarantee of the Other Indebtedness (which guarantee of
such Subordinated Indebtedness shall provide that such guarantee is subordinated
to the Guarantees of such Subsidiary to the same extent and in the same manner
as the Other Indebtedness is subordinated to the notes or the Guarantee of such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be). The Guarantee of a Guarantor shall
be released upon the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets
or all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor; provided, that, either (i) such
sale

                                       23


or transfer complies with the provisions set forth in "Certain Covenants--
Limitation on Sale of Assets" or (ii) such sale or transfer need not comply with
the provisions set forth in "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Sale of Assets"
because the Capital Stock so sold or transferred does not constitute an "Asset
Sale" by operation of the provisions of clause (y) of the last sentence of the
definition of Asset Sale.

Purchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control

If a Change of Control shall occur at any time, then each holder of notes shall
have the right to require that the Company purchase such holder's notes in whole
or in part in integral multiples of $1,000, at a purchase price (the "Change of
Control Purchase Price") in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal
amount of such notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of
purchase (the "Change of Control Purchase Date"), pursuant to the offer
described below (the "Change of Control Offer") and the other procedures set
forth in the Indenture.

Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall notify the
Trustee, give written notice of such Change of Control to each holder of notes
by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at his address appearing in the security
register stating, among other things, the purchase price and that the purchase
date shall be a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from
the date such notice is mailed, or such later date as is necessary to comply
with requirements under the Exchange Act; that any notes not tendered will
continue to accrue interest; that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of
the purchase price, any notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of
Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control
Purchase Date; and certain other procedures that a holder of notes must follow
to accept a Change of Control Offer or to withdraw such acceptance.

If a Change of Control Offer is made, there can be no assurance that the Company
will have available funds sufficient to pay the Change of Control Purchase Price
for all of the notes that might be delivered by holders of the notes seeking to
accept the Change of Control Offer. The Credit Agreement restricts the ability
of the Company to purchase the notes prior to full repayment of indebtedness
under the Credit Agreement and, upon a Change of Control, all amounts
outstanding under the Credit Agreement become due and payable. There can be no
assurance that in the event of a Change in Control the Company will be able to
obtain the necessary consents from the lenders under the Credit Agreement to
consummate a Change of Control Offer. The failure of the Company to make or
consummate the Change of Control Offer or pay the Change of Control Purchase
Price when due will result in an Event of Default and will give the Trustee and
the holders of the notes the rights described under "Events of Default."

The definition of "Change of Control" in the Indenture is defined to mean the
occurrence of any of the following events:

  (i)    any "person" or "group" (as such terms are used in Section 13(d) and
         Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act), other than Permitted Holders, is or
         becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5
         under the Exchange Act, except that a Person shall be deemed to have
         beneficial ownership of all shares that such Person has the right to
         acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after
         the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of more than 30% of the
         voting power of the total outstanding Voting Stock of the Company
         voting as one class, provided that the Permitted Holders "beneficially
         own" (as so defined) a percentage of Voting Stock having a lesser
         percentage of the voting power than such other Person and do not have
         the right or ability by voting power, contract or otherwise to elect or
         designate for election a majority of the board of directors of the
         Company;

  (ii)   during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the
         beginning of such period constituted the board of directors of the
         Company (together with any new directors whose election to such board
         of directors or whose nomination for election by the shareholders of
         the Company, was approved by a vote of 66 2/3% of the directors then
         still in office who were either directors at the beginning of such
         period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so
         approved) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of such board
         of directors then in office;

  (iii)  the Company consolidates with or merges with or into any Person or
         conveys, transfers or leases all or substantially all of its assets to
         any Person, or any corporation consolidates with or merges into or with
         the Company, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which the
         outstanding Voting Stock of the Company is changed into or exchanged
         for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction
         where the outstanding Voting Stock of the Company is not changed or
         exchanged at all (except to the extent necessary to reflect a change in
         the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company) or where (A) the
         outstanding Voting Stock of the Company is changed into or exchanged
         for (x) Voting Stock of the surviving corporation which is not
         Redeemable Capital Stock or (y) cash, securities and other property
         (other than Capital Stock of the surviving corporation) in an amount
         which could be paid by the Company as a Restricted Payment in
         accordance with "Certain Covenants-Limitation on Restricted Payments"
         (and such amount shall be treated as a Restricted Payment subject to
         the provisions in the Indenture described under "Certain Covenants--
         Limitation on Restricted Payments") and (B) no "person" or "group"
         other than Permitted Holders owns immediately after such transaction,
         directly or indirectly, more than the greater of (1) 30% of the voting
         power of the total outstanding Voting Stock of the surviving
         corporation voting as one class and (2) the percentage of

                                       24


         such voting power of the surviving corporation held, directly or
         indirectly, by Permitted Holders immediately after such transaction; or

  (iv)   the Company is liquidated or dissolved or adopts a plan of liquidation
         or dissolution other than in a transaction which complies with the
         provisions described under "Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets."

"Permitted Holders" means as of the date of determination (i) Marilyn Sands,
Richard Sands and Robert Sands; (ii) family members or the relatives of the
Persons described in clause (i) or the Mac and Sally Sands Foundation,
Incorporated; (iii) any trusts created for the benefit of the Persons described
in clauses (i), (ii) or (v) or for the benefit of Andrew Stern or any trust for
the benefit of any such trust; (iv) any partnerships that are controlled by (and
a majority of the partnership interests in which are owned by) any of the
Persons described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (v) or by any partnership that
satisfies the conditions of this clause (iv); or (v) in the case of Marvin Sands
and in the event of the incompetence or death of any of the persons described in
clauses (i) and (ii), such Person's estate, executor, administrator, committee
or other personal representative or beneficiaries, in each case who at any
particular date shall beneficially own or have the right to acquire, directly or
indirectly, Capital Stock of the Company.

The term "all or substantially all" as used in the definition of "Change of
Control" has not been interpreted under New York law (which is the governing law
of the Indenture) to represent a specific quantitative test. As a consequence,
in the event the holders of the notes elected to exercise their rights under the
Indenture and the Company elected to contest such election, there could be no
assurance as to how a court interpreting New York law would interpret the
phrase.

The definition of "Change of Control" is limited in scope. As a result the
provisions of the Indenture will not afford holders of notes the right to
require the Company to purchase the notes in the event of a highly leveraged
transaction or certain transactions with the Company's management or its
affiliates, including a reorganization, restructuring, merger or similar
transaction (including, in certain circumstances, an acquisition of the Company
by management or its affiliates) involving the Company that may adversely affect
holders of the notes, if such transaction is not a transaction defined as a
Change of Control. A transaction involving the Company's management or its
affiliates, or a transaction involving a recapitalization of the Company, will
result in a Change of Control if it is the type of transaction specified by such
definition.

The existence of a holder's right to require the Company to purchase such
holder's notes upon a Change of Control may deter a third party from acquiring
the Company in a transaction which constitutes a Change of Control.

The Company will comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule
14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws or
regulations in connection with a Change of Control Offer.

The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, create or permit to
exist or become effective any restriction (other than restrictions existing
under Indebtedness as in effect on the date of the Indenture) that would
materially impair the ability of the Company to make a Change of Control Offer
to purchase the notes or, if such Change of Control Offer is made, to pay for
the notes tendered for purchase.

Limitation on Restricted Subsidiary Capital Stock

The Company will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to issue
any Capital Stock, except for

  (i)    Capital Stock issued to and held by the Company or a Wholly Owned
         Restricted Subsidiary;

  (ii)   Capital Stock issued by a Person prior to the time (A) such Person
         becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) such Person merges with or into a
         Restricted Subsidiary or (C) a Restricted Subsidiary merges with or
         into such Person; provided that such Capital Stock was not issued or
         incurred by such Person in anticipation of the type of transaction
         contemplated by subclauses (A), (B) or (C);

  (iii)  Capital Stock issued or sold by a Restricted Subsidiary, where
         immediately after giving effect to such issuance or sale, such
         Restricted Subsidiary would no longer constitute a Restricted
         Subsidiary; and

  (iv)   Capital Stock issued to any minority owner of a Restricted Subsidiary;
         provided that immediately after giving effect to such issuance, (A)
         such Restricted Subsidiary remains a Restricted Subsidiary and (B) the
         Company has the same percentage of beneficial ownership in such
         Restricted Subsidiary as immediately prior to such issuance.

Limitation on Dividends and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted
Subsidiaries

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become
effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company to

                                       25


  (i)    pay dividends or make any other distribution on its Capital Stock,

  (ii)   pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of
         the Company,

  (iii)  make any Investment in the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the
         Company, or

  (iv)   transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any
         Restricted Subsidiary,

except

  (a)    any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement in effect on
         the date of the Indenture;

  (b)    any encumbrance or restriction, with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary
         that is not a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company on the date of the
         Indenture, in existence at the time such Person becomes a Restricted
         Subsidiary of the Company and, in the case of clauses (a) and (b), not
         incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person
         becoming a Restricted Subsidiary;

  (c)    any encumbrance or restriction existing under any agreement that
         extends, renews, refinances or replaces the agreements containing the
         encumbrances or restrictions in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), or
         in this clause (c); provided that the terms and conditions of any such
         encumbrances or restrictions are not materially less favorable to the
         holders of the notes than those under or pursuant to the agreement
         evidencing the Indebtedness so extended, renewed, refinanced or
         replaced (except that an encumbrance or restriction that is not more
         restrictive than those set forth in the Indenture shall in any event be
         permitted); and;

  (d)    any encumbrance or restriction created pursuant to an asset sale
         agreement, stock sale agreement or similar instrument pursuant to which
         an Asset Sale permitted under "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Sale of
         Assets" is to be consummated, so long as such restriction or
         encumbrance shall be effective only for a period from the execution and
         delivery of such agreement or instrument through a termination date not
         later than 270 days after such execution and delivery.

Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries

The Company may designate after the Issue Date any Subsidiary of the Company as
an "Unrestricted Subsidiary" under the Indenture (a "Designation") only if:

  (i)    no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at
         the time of or after giving effect to such Designation;

  (ii)   at the time of and after giving effect to such Designation, the Company
         could Incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness (other than Permitted
         Indebtedness) under the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the
         first paragraph of "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Indebtedness"; and

  (iii)  the Company would be permitted to make an Investment (other than a
         Permitted Investment) at the time of Designation (assuming the
         effectiveness of such Designation) pursuant to paragraph (a) of
         "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Restricted Payments" above in an
         amount (the "Designation Amount") equal to the amount of the Company's
         Investment in such Subsidiary on such date.

Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall at any time (x) provide
credit support for, subject any of its property or assets (other than the
Capital Stock of any Unrestricted Subsidiary) to the satisfaction of, or
guarantee, any Indebtedness of any Unrestricted Subsidiary (including any
undertaking, agreement or instrument evidencing such Indebtedness) or (y) be
directly or indirectly liable for any Indebtedness of any Unrestricted
Subsidiary. For purposes of the foregoing, the Designation of a Subsidiary of
the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to include the
Designation of all of the Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary.

The Company may revoke any Designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary (a "Revocation") only if:

  (i)    no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at
         the time of and after giving effect to such Revocation; and

  (ii)   all Liens and Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary outstanding
         immediately following such Revocation would, if Incurred at such time,
         have been permitted to be Incurred for all purposes of the Indenture.

                                       26


All Designations and Revocations must be evidenced by resolutions of the board
of directors of the Company, delivered to the Trustee certifying compliance with
the foregoing provisions.

Limitation of Applicability of Certain Covenants if Notes Rated Investment Grade

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company's and its Restricted Subsidiaries'
obligations to comply with the provisions of the Indenture described (x) above
under the captions "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Indebtedness," "Certain
Covenants--Limitation on Restricted Payments," "Certain Covenants--Limitation on
Transactions with Affiliates," "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Restricted
Subsidiary Capital Stock," "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Dividends and Other
Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries," and "Certain Covenants-
-Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries," and (y) below in clause (iv) of the
first paragraph under the caption "Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets," will
terminate and cease to have any further effect from and after the first date
when the notes are rated Investment Grade.

Provision of Financial Statements

Whether or not the Company is subject to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, the Company will, to the extent permitted under the Exchange Act,
file with the Commission the annual reports, quarterly reports and other
documents which the Company would have been required to file with the Commission
pursuant to such Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) if the Company were so subject,
such documents to be filed with the Commission on or prior to the respective
dates (the "Required Filing Dates") by which the Company would have been
required so to file such documents if the Company were so subject. The Company
will also in any event (x) within 15 days of each Required Filing Date (i)
transmit by mail to all holders, as their names and addresses appear in the
security register, without cost to such holders and (ii) file with the Trustee
copies of the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the
Company would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section
13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Company were subject to such
sections and (y) if filing such documents by the Company with the Commission is
not permitted under the Exchange Act, promptly upon written request and payment
of the reasonable cost of duplication and delivery, supply copies of such
documents to any prospective holder at the Company's cost.

Additional Covenants

The Indenture also contains covenants with respect to the following matters: (i)
payment of principal, premium and interest; (ii) maintenance of an office or
agency in the City of New York; (iii) arrangements regarding the handling of
money held in trust; (iv) maintenance of corporate and partnership existence;
(v) payment of taxes and other claims; (vi) maintenance of properties; and (vii)
maintenance of insurance.

Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets

The Company shall not, in a single transaction or through a series of related
transactions, consolidate with or merge with or into any other Person or sell,
assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all
of its properties and assets as an entirety to any Person or group of affiliated
Persons, or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to enter into any such
transaction or transactions if such transaction or transactions, in the
aggregate, would result in a sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or
disposal of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis to any other Person or
group of affiliated Persons, unless at the time and after giving effect thereto:

  (i)    either (a) the Company shall be the continuing corporation or (b) the
         Person (if other than the Company) formed by such consolidation or into
         which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by sale,
         assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition of all or
         substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its
         Restricted Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis (the "Surviving
         Entity") shall be a corporation duly organized and validly existing
         under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District
         of Columbia and such Person assumes, by a supplemental indenture in a
         form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the
         Company under the notes and the Indenture, and the Indenture shall
         remain in full force and effect;

  (ii)   immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such
         transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing;

  (iii)  immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma
         basis, the Consolidated Net Worth of the Company (or the Surviving
         Entity if the Company is not the continuing obligor under the
         Indenture) is equal to or greater than the Consolidated Net Worth of
         the Company immediately prior to such transaction;

  (iv)   immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such
         transaction on a pro forma basis (on the assumption that the
         transaction occurred on the first day of the four-quarter period
         immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction with the
         appropriate adjustments with respect to the transaction being included
         in such pro forma calculation), the Company (or the Surviving Entity if
         the Company is not the continuing obligor under the Indenture)

                                       27


         could Incur $1.00 additional Indebtedness under the provisions of
         "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Indebtedness" (other than Permitted
         Indebtedness);

  (v)    each Guarantor, if any, unless it is the other party to the
         transactions described above, shall have by supplemental indenture
         confirmed that its Guarantee shall apply to such Person's obligations
         under the Indenture and the notes;

  (vi)   if any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its
         Restricted Subsidiaries would thereupon become subject to any Lien, the
         provisions of "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Liens" are complied
         with; and

  (vii)  the Company or the Surviving Entity shall have delivered, or caused to
         be delivered, to the Trustee, in form and substance reasonably
         satisfactory to the Trustee, an officers' certificate and an opinion of
         counsel, each to the effect that such consolidation, merger, transfer,
         sale, assignment, conveyance, lease or other transaction and the
         supplemental indenture in respect thereto comply with the Indenture and
         that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such
         transaction have been complied with.

Each Guarantor shall not, and the Company will not permit a Guarantor to, in a
single transaction or through a series of related transactions merge or
consolidate with or into any other corporation (other than the Company or any
other Guarantor) or other entity, or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets on a
consolidated basis to any entity (other than the Company or any other Guarantor)
unless at the time and after giving effect thereto:

  (i)    either (1) such Guarantor shall be the continuing corporation or
         partnership or (2) the entity (if other than such Guarantor) formed by
         such consolidation or into which such Guarantor is merged or the entity
         which acquires by sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or
         disposition the properties and assets of such Guarantor shall be a
         corporation duly organized and validly existing under the Laws of the
         United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and shall
         expressly assume by a supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to
         the Trustee, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the
         obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee and the Indenture;

  (ii)   immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such
         transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing; and

  (iii)  such Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee an officers'
         certificate and an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably
         satisfactory to the Trustee, each stating that such consolidation,
         merger, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition
         and such supplemental indenture comply with the Indenture, and
         thereafter all obligations of the predecessor shall terminate.

The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any transaction (including
any Asset Sale made in accordance with "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Sale of
Assets") with respect to any Guarantor (i) if the Guarantee of such Guarantor is
released in connection with such transaction in accordance with the last
sentence of "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Guarantees by Restricted
Subsidiaries" or (ii) if such transaction need not comply with the provisions
set forth in "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Sale of Assets" because the
properties or assets so sold, assigned, conveyed, transferred, leased or
otherwise disposed of do not constitute an "Asset Sale" by operation of the
provisions of clause (y) of the last sentence of the definition of Asset Sale.

In the event of any transaction (other than a lease) described in and complying
with the conditions listed in the immediately preceding paragraphs in which the
Company or any Guarantor is not the continuing corporation, the successor Person
formed or remaining shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of, the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, and
the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, would be discharged from all
obligations and covenants under the Indenture and the notes.

Events of Default

An Event of Default will occur under the Indenture if:

  (i)    there shall be a default in the payment of any interest on any note
         when it becomes due and payable, and such default shall continue for a
         period of 30 days;

  (ii)   there shall be a default in the payment of the principal of (or
         premium, if any, on) any note at its Maturity (upon acceleration,

  (iii)  (a) there shall be a default in the performance, or breach, of any
         covenant or agreement of the Company or any Guarantor under the

         covenant or agreement which is specifically dealt with in clauses (i)
         or (ii) or in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of this clause (iii)) and such
         default or breach shall continue for a period of 30 days after written
         notice has been given, by certified mail, (x) to the Company by the

                                       28


          Trustee or (y) to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at
          least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes,
          specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and
          stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" under the Indenture;

          accordance with the provisions of "Certain Covenants--Limitation on
          Sale of Assets," or (d) the Company shall have failed to make or
          consummate a Change of Control Offer in accordance with the provisions
          of "Certain Covenants--Purchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control;"

  (iv)    one or more defaults shall have occurred under any agreements,
          indentures or instruments under which the Company, any Guarantor or

          million in the aggregate and, if not already matured at its final
          maturity in accordance with its terms, such Indebtedness shall have
          been accelerated;

  (v)     any Guarantee shall for any reason cease to be, or be asserted in
          writing by any Guarantor or the Company not to be, in full force and
          effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the
          extent contemplated by the Indenture and any such Guarantee;

  (vi)    one or more judgments, orders or decrees for the payment of money in
          excess of $15.0 million, either individually or in the aggregate (net

          shall be entered against the Company, any Guarantor, any Subsidiary or
          any of their respective properties and shall not be discharged and
          either (a) any creditor shall have commenced an enforcement proceeding
          upon such judgment, order or decree or (b) there shall have been a
          period of 60 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of
          such judgment or order, by reason of an appeal or otherwise, shall not
          be in effect;

  (vii)   any holder or holders of at least $10.0 million in aggregate principal
          amount of Indebtedness of the Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary
          after a default under such Indebtedness shall notify the Trustee of
          the intended sale or disposition of any assets of the Company, any
          Guarantor or any Subsidiary that have been pledged to or for the
          benefit of such holder or holders to secure such Indebtedness or shall
          commence proceedings, or take any action (including by way of set-
          off), to retain in satisfaction of such Indebtedness or to collect on,
          seize, dispose of or apply in satisfaction of Indebtedness, assets of
          the Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary (including funds on
          deposit or held pursuant to lock-box and other similar arrangements);

  (viii)  there shall have been the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction
          of (a) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company, any
          Guarantor or any Subsidiary in an involuntary case or proceeding under
          any applicable Bankruptcy Law or (b) a decree or order adjudging the
          Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary bankrupt or insolvent, or
          seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or
          in respect of the Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary under any
          applicable federal or state law, or appointing a custodian, receiver,
          liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar
          official) of the Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary or of any
          substantial part of their respective properties, or ordering the
          winding up or liquidation of their affairs, and any such decree or
          order for relief shall continue to be in effect, or any such other
          decree or order shall be unstayed and in effect, for a period of 60
          consecutive days; or

  (ix)    (a) the Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary commences a voluntary
          case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or any other
          case or proceeding to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent; (b) the
          Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary consents to the entry of a
          decree or order for relief in respect of the Company, any Guarantor or
          such Subsidiary in an involuntary case or proceeding under any
          applicable Bankruptcy Law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or

          Guarantor or any Subsidiary files a petition or answer or consent
          seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state
          law; (d) the Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary (x) consents to
          the filing of such petition or the appointment of, or taking
          possession by, a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
          sequestrator or similar official of the Company, any Guarantor or such
          Subsidiary or of any substantial part of their respective properties,
          (y) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or (z) admits in
          writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due;
          or (e) the Company, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary takes any
          corporate action in furtherance of any such actions in this paragraph
          (ix).

If an Event of Default (other than as specified in clauses (viii) and (ix) of
the prior paragraph) shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee or the holders
of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding
may, and the Trustee at the request of such holders shall, declare all unpaid
principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all of the notes, to be
due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the
Trustee if given by the holders of the notes). If an Event of Default specified
in clause (viii) or (ix) of the prior paragraph occurs and is continuing, then
all the notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable, in an
amount equal to the principal amount of the notes, together with accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, to the date the notes become due and payable, without
any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder.

                                       29


After a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment
of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, the holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of notes outstanding by written notice to the Company
and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:
(a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay
(i) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under the Indenture and the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel, (ii) all overdue interest on the notes, and (iii) to the
extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest
at the rate borne by the notes; (b) all Events of Default, other than the
nonpayment of principal of the notes which have become due solely by such
declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and (c) the rescission
will not conflict with any judgment or decree.

The holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
notes outstanding, may, on behalf of the holders of all the notes, waive any
past defaults under the Indenture and its consequences, except a default in the
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any note, or in
respect of a covenant or provision which under the Indenture cannot be modified
or amended without the consent of the holder of each series of notes
outstanding.

The Company is also required to notify the Trustee within five business days of
the occurrence of any Default.

The Trust Indenture Act contains limitations on the rights of the Trustee,
should it become a creditor of the Company or any Guarantor, to obtain payment
of claims in certain cases or to realize on certain property received by it in
respect of any such claims, as security or otherwise. The Trustee is permitted
to engage in other transactions; provided that if it acquires any conflicting
interest it must eliminate such conflict upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default or else resign.

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have its obligations
discharged with respect to the outstanding notes ("Legal Defeasance"). Such
Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and
discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the outstanding notes, except
for:

  (i)   the rights of holders of the notes to receive payments in respect of the
        principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the notes when such
        payments are due;

  (ii)  the Company's obligations with respect to the notes concerning issuing
        temporary notes, registration of notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or
        stolen notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payments;

  (iii) the rights, powers, trust duties and immunities of the Trustee and the
        Company's obligations in connection therewith; and

  (iv)  the Legal Defeasance provisions of the Indenture.

In addition, the Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the
obligations of the Company released with respect to certain covenants that are
described in the Indenture ("Covenant Defeasance") and thereafter any omission
to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a Default or Event of
Default with respect to the particular series of notes.

In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-
payment, bankruptcy, receivership, reorganization and insolvency events)
described under "Events of Default" will no longer constitute an Event of
Default with respect to the particular series of notes subject to such Covenant
Defeasance.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

  (i)    the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for
         the benefit of the holders of the notes cash in U.S. dollars, non-
         callable United States Treasury Securities, or a combination thereof,
         in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an
         internationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to
         pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding
         notes, on the stated date for payment thereof;

  (ii)   in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to
         the Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee
         confirming that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been
         published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the
         date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable
         federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based
         thereon such opinion of counsel shall confirm that, the holders of the
         notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
         purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to
         federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the
         same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not
         occurred;

  (iii)  in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to
         the Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee
         confirming that the holders of the notes will not recognize income,
         gain or loss for federal

                                       30


          income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will
          be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same
          manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such
          Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(iv)      no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
          on the date of such deposit (other that a Default or Event of Default
          with respect to the Indenture resulting from the Incurrence of
          Indebtedness, all or a portion of which will be used to defease the
          notes concurrently with such Incurrence);

(v)       such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a
          breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Indenture
          or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or
          any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of
          its Subsidiaries is bound;

(vi)      the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an officers'
          certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with
          the intent of preferring the holders of the notes over any other
          creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering,
          delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company or others;

(vii)     the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an officers'
          certificate and opinions of counsel, each stating that all conditions
          precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the
          Covenant Defeasance have been complied with;

(viii)    the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel
          to the effect that (A) the trust funds will not be subject to any
          rights of holders of Indebtedness of the Company other than the notes
          and (B) assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Company between the
          date of deposit and the 91st day following the deposit and that no
          holder of the notes is an insider of the Company, after the 91st day
          following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the
          effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
          similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally; and

(ix)      certain other customary conditions precedent specified in the
          Indenture are satisfied.

                                       31


Satisfaction and Discharge

The Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights
of registration of transfer or exchange of the notes, as expressly provided for
in the Indenture) as to all outstanding notes when (a) either (i) all the notes
theretofore authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed notes
which have been replaced or paid) canceled or have been delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation or (ii) all notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
canceled or for cancellation (x) have become due and payable, (y) will become
due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or (z) are to be
called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the
Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and
at the expense, of the Company, and the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount
sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the notes not
theretofore delivered to the Trustee canceled or for cancellation, including
principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest at such Stated Maturity or
redemption date; (b) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid
all other sums payable under the Indenture by the Company or any Guarantor; and
(c) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an officers' certificate and an
opinion of counsel each stating that (i) all conditions precedent under the
Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture have been
complied with and (ii) such satisfaction and discharge will not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Indenture or any
other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is
a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound.

Modifications and Amendments

Modifications and amendments of the Indenture with respect to the notes may be
made by the Company, each Guarantor, if any, and the Trustee with the consent of
the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the notes; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment
may, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding note affected
thereby:

     (i)   change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of
           interest on, any note or reduce the principal amount thereof or the
           rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption
           thereof, or change the coin or currency in which the principal of any
           note or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the
           right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or
           after the Stated Maturity thereof;

     (ii)  amend, change or modify the obligation of the Company to make and
           consummate an Offer with respect to any Asset Sale or Asset Sales in
           accordance with "Certain Covenants--Limitation on Sale of Assets" or
           the obligation of the Company to make and consummate a Change of
           Control Offer in the event of a Change of Control in accordance with
           "Certain Covenants--Purchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control,"
           including amending, changing or modifying any definitions with
           respect thereto;

     (iii) reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding notes, the
           consent of whose holders is required for any such supplemental
           indenture, or the consent of whose holders is required for any
           waiver;

     (iv)  modify any of the provisions relating to supplemental indentures
           requiring the consent of holders or relating to the waiver of past
           defaults or relating to the waiver of certain covenants, except to
           increase the percentage of outstanding notes required for such
           actions or to provide that certain other provisions of the Indenture
           cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the holder of
           each note affected thereby;

     (v)   except as otherwise permitted under "Consolidation, Merger, Sale of
           Assets," consent to the assignment or transfer by the Company or any
           Guarantor of any of its rights and obligations under the Indenture;
           or

     (vi)  amend or modify any of the provisions of the Indenture to cause the
           notes or any Guarantee to be subordinate to any other Indebtedness.

The holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
notes outstanding may waive compliance with certain restrictive covenants and
provisions of the Indenture, as they relate to such series of notes.

Governing Law

The Indenture, the notes and the Guarantees are governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the
conflicts of law principles thereof.

                                       32


The Trustee

The Indenture provides that, except during the continuance of an Event of
Default, the Trustee will perform only such duties as are specifically set forth
in the Indenture. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Trustee will
exercise such rights and powers vested in it by the Indenture, and use the same
degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or
use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person's own affairs.

The Indenture and the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act contain certain
limitations on the rights of the Trustee, should it become a creditor of the
Company, to obtain payments of claims in certain cases or to realize on certain
property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. Subject
to the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee will be permitted to engage in other
transactions; provided that if the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest as
described in the Trust Indenture Act, it must eliminate such conflict or resign.

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

The old notes have been offered and sold to qualified institutional buyers in
reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The old notes have been issued
initially in the form of a global note (the "144A Global Note"). The 144A
Global Note will be deposited with the Trustee as custodian for The Depository
Trust Company ("DTC") and registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of
DTC. Except in the limited circumstances described in this prospectus,
beneficial interests in the 144A Global Note will be shown on, and transfers
thereof will be effected only through, records maintained in book-entry form by
DTC.

Regulation S notes initially will be represented by one or more notes in
registered, global form without interest coupons (the "Regulation S Global
Note," and together with the Rule 144A Global Note, the "Global Notes"). The
Regulation S Global Note has been deposited with the Trustee as custodian for
DTC and registered in the name of a nominee of DTC, in each case for credit to
the accounts of the Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear
System ("Euroclear"), and Clearstream Banking, S.A. of Luxembourg
("Clearstream"). On or prior to the 40th day after the later of the commencement
of this offering and the Issue Date (such period through and including such 40th
day, the "Restricted Period"), beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global
Note may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream as indirect participants
in DTC, unless transferred to a person that takes delivery in the form of an
interest in the corresponding Rule 144A Global Note in accordance with the
certification requirements described below. Beneficial interests in the Rule
144A Global Note may not be exchanged for beneficial interests in the Regulation
S Global Note at any time except in the limited circumstances described below.

The Global Notes will be subject to certain restrictions on transfer and will
bear a restrictive legend as described under "Notice to Investors." In addition,
transfer of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be subject to the
applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect participants
(including, if applicable, those of Euroclear and Clearstream), which may change
from time to time.

Depositary Procedures

DTC. We understand as follows with respect to DTC: DTC is a limited-purpose
trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization"
within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve
System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions
of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities of its
participants and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions
amongst its participants in such securities through electronic book-entry
changes in accounts of the participants, thereby eliminating the need for
physical movement of securities certificates. DTC's participants include
securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations
and certain other organizations, some of whom (and/or their representatives) own
DTC.

Except as described below, owners of interests in the Global Notes will not have
notes registered in their names, will not receive physical delivery of notes in
certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or holders of
notes for any purpose. So long as DTC is the registered owner or holder of a
Global Note, such party will be considered the sole owner or holder of the notes
represented by such Global Note for all purposes under the Indenture and the
notes. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a Global Note
must rely on the procedures of DTC and their participants or holders to exercise
any rights and remedies of a holder under the Indenture. Payments of principal
and interest on the Global Notes will be made to one or more paying agents on
behalf of DTC as the registered owner thereof.

The laws of some countries and some states in the United States require that
certain persons take physical delivery in definitive form of securities that
they own. Consequently, the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a Global
Note to such persons may be limited to that extent. Because DTC can act only on
behalf of its participants or holders, the ability of a person having beneficial

                                       33


interests in a Global Note to pledge such interests to persons or entities that
do not participate in the relevant clearing system, or otherwise take actions in
respect of such interests, may be affected by the lack of a physical certificate
evidencing such interests.

Payments on the Global Notes

While the notes are represented by the Global Notes, payments in respect of the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Global Notes will be made
through one or more paying agents appointed under the Indenture (which initially
will include the Trustee) on behalf of DTC in its capacity as the registered
holder of the notes under the Indenture. If definitive notes have been issued,
the Indenture requires the Company to make payments in respect of such
definitive notes (including principal, premium and interest) by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the holders thereof or,
if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such holder's
registered address.

Under the terms of the Indenture, the Company and the Trustee will treat the
persons in whose names the notes, including the Global Notes, are registered as
the owners thereof for the purpose of receiving such payments and for any and
all other purposes whatsoever. Consequently, none of the Company, the Trustee,
or any agent of the Company or the Trustee has or will have any responsibility
or liability for

     (i)  any aspect or accuracy of the records of the relevant clearing system,
          the participants therein or the holders thereof, as the case may be,
          relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests
          in the Global Notes, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any
          records of such clearing system, participant or holder relating to
          beneficial ownership interests in the Global Notes, or

     (ii) any other matter relating to the actions and practices of the relevant
          clearing system or the participants therein or the holders thereof.

DTC, upon receipt of any such payment, will immediately credit the accounts of
its relevant participants or holders with payments in amounts proportionate to
their respective holdings in principal amount of beneficial interests in the
Global Notes, as shown on the records of DTC. The Company expects that payments
by such participants or holders, as the case may be, to the beneficial owners of
Global Notes will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices
and will be the responsibility of such participants or holders. Neither the
Company nor the Trustee will have responsibility or liability for the payment of
amounts owing in respect of beneficial interests in the Global Notes held by the
Trustee.

Transfers of Global Securities and Interests Therein

Unless definitive securities are issued, the Global Notes may be transferred, in
whole and not in part, only by DTC to the Trustee, or by the Trustee to DTC, or
to another nominee or successor thereof or a nominee of such successor.

Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be subject to the
applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its holders and intermediaries. Any
secondary market trading activity in beneficial interests in the Global Notes is
expected to occur through the participants or holders and intermediaries of DTC
and the securities custody accounts of investors will be credited with their
holdings against payment in same-day funds on the settlement date.

No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
the notes, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Although DTC has agreed to various procedures to facilitate transfers of
interests in the Global Notes among participants and holders in DTC it is under
no obligation to perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and such
procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither we, the Trustee, nor any
agent of ours or the Trustee will have any responsibility for the nonperformance
or misperformance (as a result of insolvency, mistake, misconduct or otherwise)
by DTC or its participants, indirect participants, holders or intermediaries of
their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their
operations.

We understand that under existing industry practices, if we or the Trustee
requests any action of holders of notes, or if an owner of a beneficial interest
in a Global Note desires to give instructions or take an action that a holder is
entitled to give or take under the Indenture, DTC would authorize their
respective participants or holders, as the case may be, owning the relevant
beneficial interest to give instructions to take such action, and such
participants or holders would authorize indirect participants or intermediaries
to give instructions or take such action, or would otherwise act upon the
instructions of such indirect participants or intermediaries. DTC is not
required to authorize holders to take any action.

                                       34


We understand that under existing practices of DTC if less than all of the notes
are to be redeemed at any time, DTC will credit its participants' or holders'
accounts on a proportionate basis, with adjustments to prevent fractions, or by
lot or on such other basis as DTC deems fair and appropriate, provided that no
beneficial interests of less than $1,000, may be redeemed in part.

Except in the limited circumstances described below, owners of beneficial
interests in Global Notes will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of
definitive notes. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be
subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect
participants, which rules and procedures may change from time to time.

Certificated Notes

Beneficial interests in a Global Note are exchangeable for definitive notes in
registered certificated form only if (i) (in whole but not in part) DTC is
closed for business for a continuous period of 14 days (other than by reason of
holiday, statutory or otherwise) or announces an intention permanently to cease
business or does in fact do so and no alternative clearance system satisfactory
to the Trustee, is available, (ii) (in whole or in part) an Event of Default
under the Indenture occurs and is continuing, upon the request delivered in
writing to DTC or the Trustee, (iii) (in whole but not in part) at any time the
Company in its sole discretion determines that the Global Notes should be
exchanged for definitive notes or (iv) (in whole but not in part) DTC is at any
time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary and a successor depositary is
not able to be appointed by the Company within 90 days.

Any certificated notes will be issued in registered form in denominations of
$1,000 in nominal amount and integral multiples thereof. In all cases,
certificated notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial
interest in the Global Notes will be registered in the names, and issued in any
approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of DTC in accordance with its
customary procedures. The notes may not be issued in bearer form.

In the case of the issuance of certificated notes in the limited circumstances
set forth above, the holder of any such certificated note may transfer such note
by surrendering it at the offices or agencies of the Company maintained for such
purpose within the City and State of New York. Until otherwise designated by the
Company, the Company's office or agency in the City and State of New York will
be the offices of the Trustee maintained for such purpose. In the event of a
partial transfer of a holding of notes represented by one certificate, or
partial redemption of such a holding represented by one certificate, a new
certificate shall be issued to the transferee in respect of the part transferred
or redeemed and a further new certificate in respect of the balance of the
holding not transferred or redeemed shall be issued to the transferor, provided
that no certificate in denominations less than $1,000 shall be issued. Each new
certificate to be issued shall be available for delivery within ten business
days at the office of the Trustee. The cost of preparing, printing, packaging
and delivering the certificated notes shall be borne by the Company.

The Company shall not be required to register the transfer or exchange of
certificated notes for a period of 15 days preceding

(a) the due date for any payment of principal of or interest on the notes, or

(b) the date fixed for a selection of notes to be redeemed.

Also, the Company is not required to register the transfer or exchange of any
notes selected for redemption. In the event of the transfer of any certificated
note, the Trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish
appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Company may require a
holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law and permitted by the Indenture
and the notes.

If certificated notes are issued and a holder of a certificated note claims that
the note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken or if such note is
mutilated and is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall issue and the
Trustee shall authenticate a replacement note if the Trustee's and the Company's
requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity
bond sufficient in the judgment of both to protect the Company, the Trustee or
any paying agent or authenticating agent appointed pursuant to the indenture
from any loss which any of them may suffer if a note is replaced must be posted.
The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a note.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen note has become or is
about to become due and payable, or is about to be redeemed or purchased by the
Company pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture, the Company in its
discretion may, instead of issuing a new note, pay, redeem or purchase such
note, as the case may be.

To the extent permitted by law, the Company, any Paying Agent, the Registrar and
the Transfer Agent shall be entitled to treat the person in whose name any
certificated note is registered as the absolute owner thereof. The Indenture
will contain provisions relating to the maintenance of a register reflecting
ownership of certificated notes, if any, and other provisions customary for a
registered debt security including registration as to both principal and stated
interest and restrictions on transfer except by surrender of a certificated note
and either the reissuance of such certificated note or the issuance of a new
certificated note to the

                                       35


new holder. Payment of principal on each certificated note will be made to the
holder against presentation and surrender. Payment of interest on each
certificated note will be made to the holder appearing on the register at the
close of business on the record date at his address shown on the register on the
record date.

None of the Company, the Trustee, the Depositary or any paying agent will have
any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or
payments made on account of, any book-entry interest.

Redemption of Global Notes

In the event that any Global Note (or any portion thereof) is redeemed, the
Trustee will redeem an equal amount of the book-entry interests in such Global
Note from the amount received by it in respect to the redemption of such Global
Note. The redemption price payable in connection with the redemption of such
book-entry interests will be equal to the amount received by the Trustee in
connection with the redemption of such Global Note (or any portion thereof).

Resignation of Trustee

The Trustee may at any time resign as Trustee by written notice to the Company
and the Trustee, such resignation to become effective upon the appointment of a
successor Trustee, in which case the Global Notes shall be delivered to such
successor. If no successor has been so appointed by the Company within 90 days,
certificated notes shall be issued in exchange therefor as described above.

Notices

Notices to holders of notes shall be mailed by first-class mail to each holder
at its address appearing in the register of holders on the appropriate date
provided herein. For so long as any of the notes are represented by the Global
Notes, notice to holders shall (in addition to publication as described above)
also be given by delivery of the relevant notice to DTC for communication to the
holders of the book entry interests in the notes.

Reports

The Trustee will immediately send to DTC a copy of any notices, reports and
other communications received relating to the Company, the notes, the Guarantees
or the book-entry interests.

            Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following is a summary of certain anticipated U.S. federal income tax
consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes, based upon
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and existing regulations, rulings
and judicial decisions as of the date of this prospectus. Such authorities may
be repealed, revoked or modified, possibly with retroactive effect, so as to
result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those discussed
below. Except as specifically set forth in this prospectus, this summary deals
only with notes held as capital assets by initial holders, and does not deal
with special situations, such as those of dealers in securities or currencies,
financial institutions, banks, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies,
holders that are partnerships or other pass-through entities and holders whose
"functional currency" is not the U.S. dollar, or special rules with respect to
"straddle," "conversion," "hedging" or "constructive sales" transactions. This
summary is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the courts. No ruling
has been sought or will be sought from the Internal Revenue Service with respect
to the positions and issues discussed herein, and there can be no assurance that
the Internal Revenue Service will not take a different position concerning the
tax consequences of the purchase, ownership or disposition of the notes or that
any such position would not be sustained. Prospective investors are urged to
consult their tax advisors regarding the particular tax consequences of
purchasing, holding and disposing of notes that may be specific to them,
including the tax consequences arising under any state, local or foreign laws.

As used in this prospectus, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of a
note who or that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes

     (i)   a citizen or resident of the United States,

     (ii)  a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United
           States or any political subdivision thereof,

     (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income
           taxation regardless of source, or

     (iv)  a trust if (A) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision
           over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons
           have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust,
           or (B) such trust has a valid election in effect under applicable
           U.S. Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

As used in this prospectus, the term "Non-U.S. Holder" means a holder of a note
that is not a U.S. Holder.

Exchange of Notes

There will be no federal income tax consequences to holders exchanging old notes
for new notes pursuant to the exchange offer since the exchange offer will be by
operation of the original terms of the old notes, pursuant to a unilateral act
by us, and will not result in any material alteration in the terms of the old
notes.  Each exchanging holder will have the same adjusted tax basis and holding
period in the new notes as it had in the old notes immediately before the
exchange.

U.S. Holders

Interest. Interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the notes
generally will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the
time accrued or received in accordance with the U.S. Holder's regular method of
accounting for federal income tax purposes.

Dispositions. Upon the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of a
note, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the
difference between the amount realized on the disposition (other than any
amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest) and the holder's adjusted
tax basis in the note. The gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss.
To the extent that the amount realized represents accrued but unpaid interest
not previously taken into income, however, such amounts must be taken into
account as interest income.

                                       43


For certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, the rate of
taxation of capital gains will depend upon the holder's holding period in the
note, with a preferential rate generally available for notes held for more than
one year. In addition, special rules, and generally lower maximum tax rates,
apply to individuals in lower tax brackets and to individuals who have held, for
more than five years, capital assets acquired or deemed to have been acquired
after December 31, 2000. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to
limitations.

Non-U.S. Holders

The following discussion is limited to the U.S. federal income tax consequences
relevant to a holder of a note that is a Non-U.S. Holder.

Interest. Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding,
payments of interest on a note to any Non-U.S. Holder will generally not be
subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax, provided that

     (i)   the holder is not (A) a direct or indirect owner, taking into account
           certain attribution rules, of 10% or more of the total voting power
           of all voting stock of the issuer or (B) a controlled foreign
           corporation related to the issuer through stock ownership,

     (ii)  such interest payments are not effectively connected with the conduct
           by the Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business within the United
           States and

     (iii) the issuer or its paying agent receives (A) from the Non-U.S. Holder,
           a properly completed Form W-8BEN, or substitute Form W-8BEN, under
           penalties of perjury, which provides the Non-U.S. Holder's name and
           address and certifies that the Non-U.S. Holder of the note is a Non-
           U.S. Holder or (B) from a security clearing organization, bank or
           other financial institution that holds the notes in the ordinary
           course of its trade or business (a "financial institution") on behalf
           of the Non-U.S. Holder, certification under penalties of perjury that
           such a Form W-8BEN or substitute Form W-8BEN has been received by it,
           or by another such financial institution, from the Non-U.S. Holder,
           and a copy of the Form W-8BEN or substitute Form W-8BEN, is furnished
           to the payor.

A Non-U.S. Holder that does not qualify for exemption from withholding under the
preceding paragraph generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal
income tax at the rate of 30%, or lower applicable treaty rate, on payments of
interest on the notes. To the extent a Non-U.S. Holder seeks a reduced rate of
withholding under a treaty, such holder must provide the issuer or its paying
agent with a properly completed Form W-8BEN.

If the payments of interest on a note are effectively connected with the conduct
by a Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States, such payments
will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis at the rates
applicable to United States persons generally and, with respect to corporate
holders, may also be subject to a 30% branch profits tax. If payments are
subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis in accordance with the rules
described in the preceding sentence, those payments will not be subject to
withholding tax so long as the holder provides the issuer or its paying agent
with a properly executed Form W-8ECI.

Non-U.S. Holders should consult any applicable income tax treaties, which may
provide for a lower rate of withholding tax, exemption from or reduction of
branch profits tax, or other rules different from those described above.

For purposes of the certification requirements, those persons that, under U.S.
federal income tax principles, are the taxpayers with respect to payments on the
notes are generally treated as the beneficial owners of such payments, rather
than persons such as nominees or agents legally entitled to such payments. In
the case of payments to an entity classified as a foreign partnership under U.S.
federal income tax principles, the partners, rather than the partnership,
generally must provide the required certifications to qualify for the
withholding tax exemption described above. A payment to a United States
partnership, however, is treated for these purposes as payment to a U.S. Holder,
even if the partnership has one or more foreign partners. The discussion under
this heading and under "--Information Reporting and Backup Withholding" below,
is not intended to be a complete discussion of the provisions of the U.S.
withholding laws. Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors
regarding the tax consequences of their proposed investment in light of such
laws.

Dispositions. Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding, any
gain realized by a Non-U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange, retirement or other
disposition of a note generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or
withholding tax, unless

     (i)   such gain is effectively connected with the conduct by such Non-U.S.
           Holder of a trade or business within the United States,

                                       44


     (ii)  the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United
           States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition
           and certain other conditions are satisfied, or

     (iii) the Non-U.S. Holder is subject to tax pursuant to the provisions of
           U.S. tax law applicable to certain U.S. expatriates.

Federal Estate Tax. Notes held, or treated as held, by an individual who is a
Non-U.S. Holder at the time of his or her death will not be subject to U.S.
federal tax provided that (i) the individual does not actually or constructively
own 10% or more of the total voting power of all voting stock of the issuer and
(ii) income on the notes was not effectively connected with the conduct by the
Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business within the United States.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Payments with respect to the notes and the proceeds upon the sale or other
disposition of the notes may be subject to information reporting and possibly
U.S. backup withholding at a 31% rate. Backup withholding will not apply to a
U.S. Holder who furnishes its correct taxpayer identification number and
provides other certification. Backup withholding will not apply to payments made
by the issuer in respect of the notes to a Non-U.S. Holder, if the holder
certifies, under penalty of perjury, that it is not a U.S. person and provides
its name and address, provided that neither the issuer nor its paying agent has
actual knowledge that the holder is a U.S. person, or the Non-U.S. Holder
otherwise establishes an exemption. Copies of information returns may be made
available, under the provisions of a specific treaty or agreement, to the tax
authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides.

Payment of proceeds from the disposition of notes to or through the United
States office of any broker, U.S. or foreign, will be subject to information
reporting and backup withholding unless the owner certifies as to its non-U.S.
status under penalty of perjury or otherwise establishes an exemption, provided
that the broker does not have actual knowledge that the holder is a U.S. person
or that the conditions of any other exemption are not, in fact, satisfied. The
payment of the proceeds from the disposition of a note to or through a non-U.S.
office of a non-U.S. broker that is not a "U.S. related person," as defined in
applicable Treasury Regulations, will not be subject to information reporting or
backup withholding. In the case of the payment of proceeds from the disposition
of a note to or through a non-U.S. office of a broker that is a U.S. person or a
"U.S. related person," the regulations require information reporting on the
payment unless the broker has documentary evidence in its files that the owner
is not a U.S. person and the broker has no knowledge to the contrary. Backup
withholding will not apply to payments made through a non-U.S. foreign office of
a broker that is a U.S. person or a "U.S. related person," absent actual
knowledge that the payee is a U.S. person.

Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules do not constitute a separate
United States federal income tax. Rather, any amount withheld under the backup
withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a holder's
U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the requisite
procedures are followed.

                                       45


                             Plan of Distribution

We will exchange new notes for old notes.  We will not receive any proceeds from
the exchange of new notes for old notes.

The new notes we issue in connection with the exchange offer may be generally
offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by any holder of the new
notes, except for a holder that is an affiliate of the Company, without
compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

We have not entered into any arrangement or understanding with any person to
distribute the new notes received in the exchange offer.  In addition, to the
best of our information and belief, each person participating in the exchange
offer is acquiring the new notes in the ordinary course of business and has no
arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution
of the new notes.

We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to the exchange offer, other than
commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers.

We shall not be liable for any delay by DTC or any participant or indirect
participant in identifying the beneficial owners of the old notes, and we and
these participants may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying
on, instructions from DTC for all purposes, including with respect to the
registration and delivery, and the principal amounts, of the new notes to be
issued.

Each broker-dealer that receives new notes for its own account pursuant to the
exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection
with any resale of new notes.  This prospectus, as it may be amended or
supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection
with resales of new notes received in exchange for private notes where such
private notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other
trading activities.  We have agreed that, starting on the expiration date and
ending on the close of business one year after the expiration date, it will make
this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for
use in connection with any such resale.

We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of new notes by brokers-dealers.
New notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the
exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the
over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of
options on the new notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market
prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing
market prices or negotiated prices.  Any resale may be made directly to
purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in
the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the
purchasers of any such exchange notes.  Any broker-dealer that resells new notes
that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer and
any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such exchange notes
may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to
be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act.  The Letter of
Transmittal states that by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering
a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an
"underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act.

For a period of one year after the expiration date, we will promptly send
additional copies of this prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this

Item 20.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

          The Delaware General Corporation Law (Section 102) allows a
corporation to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to the
corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, but a corporation may not so eliminate or limit a director's
liability for a breach of the duty of loyalty, a failure to act in good faith,
engaging in intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of a law, authorizing
the payment of a dividend or approving a stock repurchase in violation of the
Delaware General Corporation Law, or obtaining an improper personal benefit. The
Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision which
eliminates directors' personal liability to the extent permitted by the Delaware
General Corporation Law.

          The Delaware General Corporation Law (Section 145) gives Delaware
corporations broad powers to indemnify their present and former directors and
officers and those of affiliated corporations against expenses incurred in the
defense of any lawsuit to which they are made parties by reason of being or
having been such directors or officers, subject to specified conditions and
exclusions; gives a director or officer who successfully defends an action the
right to be so indemnified; and authorizes the Company to buy directors' and
officers' liability insurance. Such indemnification is not exclusive of any
other right to which those indemnified may be entitled under any bylaw,
agreement, vote of stockholders or otherwise.

          The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for
indemnification to the fullest extent authorized by Section 145 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law for directors, officers and employees of the Company and
also to persons who are serving at the request of the Company as directors,
officers or employees of other corporations (including subsidiaries); provided
that, with respect to proceedings initiated by such indemnitee, indemnification
shall be provided only if such proceedings were authorized by the Board of
Directors. This right of indemnification is not exclusive of any other right
which any person may acquire under any statute, bylaw, agreement, contract, vote
of stockholders or otherwise.

          The Company maintains a directors' and officers' liability insurance
and corporate reimbursement policy insuring directors and officers against loss
arising from claims made arising out of the performance of their duties.

registering a primary offering."

Item 22.  Undertakings.

(a)       The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

          (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
               made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

               (i)    To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
                      the Securities Act of 1933;

               (ii)   To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
                      after the effective date of the registration statement
                      (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof)
                      which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
                      fundamental change in the information set forth in the
                      registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
                      increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if
                      the total dollar amount of securities offered would not
                      exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from
                      the low or high end of the estimated offering range may be
                      reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC
                      pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes
                      in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent
                      change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
                      in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
                      effective registration statement;

               (iii)  To include any material information with respect to the
                      plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
                      registration statement or any material change to such
                      information in the registration statement.

          (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
               Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall
               be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
               securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
               at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
               thereof.

          (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
               amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
               unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b)       The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
          determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
          filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
          Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
          applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
          pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that
          is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
          deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
          offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall
          be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)       Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
          Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and
          controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
          provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the
          opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification
          is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
          unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
          such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
          incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
          registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
          proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
          person in connection with the securities being registered, the
          registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has
          been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
          appropriate jurisdiction the question

                                      II-2


          whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
          expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
          such issue.

(d)       The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests
          for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus
          pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form, within one
          business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated
          documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This
          includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the
          effective date of the registration statement through the date of
          responding to the request.

(e)       The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a
          post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and
          the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject
          of and included in the registration statement when it became
          effective.

                                      II-3
