             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)



The condensed consolidated financial statements of Johns Manville Corporation as
of June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998 reflect all normal, recurring adjustments which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
condition and the results of operations for the periods presented.  The year-end
condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial
statements, and as presented does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles.  JM has reclassified the presentation
of certain prior period information to conform with the current presentation
format.  Additional information regarding JM's accounting policies, operations
and financial position is contained or incorporated in JM's Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1998 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

</TABLE>

Note 2 - Other Income (Expense), net


JM sold its five percent net smelter royalty on certain metals produced by the
Stillwater Mining Company for cash resulting in other income of $36 million in
the second quarter of 1998.

Note 3 - Income Taxes

JM's year-to-date effective tax rates were approximately 22 percent in 1999 and
29 percent in 1998.  JM receives a tax deduction and a related reduction in its
effective tax rate for all payments JM makes to the Manville Personal Injury
Settlement Trust (the "Trust") and for all proceeds the Trust receives from
sales of JM's common stock at the time such payments or proceeds are transferred
to a special designated settlement fund of the Trust or paid to claimants.  JM
benefited from such stock sale proceeds and dividends during both years.


JM's income tax expense of $32.3 million for the first six months of 1999 at an
annual effective tax rate of approximately 22 percent reflects benefits from
July 1999 Trust stock sale proceeds (see Note 6).  JM's first quarter 1999
income tax expense of $20.3 million at an effective rate of 35 percent did not
include such benefits as Trust stock sale proceeds were not anticipated at that
time.  Consequently, income tax expense for the second quarter of 1999 was $12
million representing a 13 percent effective tax rate.

Note 4 - Debt

On June 30, 1999, JM prepaid a bond payable to the Trust in the principal amount
of $23.9 million, resulting in a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of
$5.8 million, net of taxes of $3.6 million.  The bond consisted

                                      I-5
<PAGE>

of fixed payments totaling $75 million per year in 2013 and 2014 and had been
discounted at 13 percent. In the second quarter of 1998, JM repurchased, through
a cash tender offer, substantially all of its $400 million of 10.875 percent
senior notes due 2004. This transaction resulted in an extraordinary loss on the
early extinguishment of debt of $31.8 million, net of taxes of $18.1 million.

In order to fix a portion of JM's variable interest rate debt and reduce the
aggregate risk to movements in interest rates, JM has interest rate swaps with
notional values totaling approximately $100 million. At June 30, 1999, the fair
market value of these instruments reflected unrecognized losses of approximately
$2.4 million.

On July 7, 1999, JM issued $200 million of unsecured senior notes in two
tranches: $75 million at 7.71 percent due in 2006; and $125 million at 7.92
percent due in 2009. The proceeds were used to repurchase shares from the Trust
(see Note 6) and repay existing indebtedness.

Note 5 - Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

Effective January 1, 1998, JM changed its method of accounting for glass furnace
rebuild costs to the capitalization method from the allowance method. Under the
capitalization method, costs to periodically rebuild the refractory components
of the glass furnaces are capitalized when incurred and depreciated on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the rebuild.  The
capitalization method provides an improved measure of JM's capital investment
and is consistent with industry practice.  Previously, estimated costs to
rebuild furnaces were credited to an allowance and charged to operations over
the estimated period to the next rebuild date.  The cumulative effect of this
change in accounting principle increased 1998 earnings by $27.4 million, net of
taxes of $17.9 million.

Note 6 - Earnings Per Common Share and Equity

Basic and diluted earnings per common share amounts were determined using the
reported net income and the following common equivalent shares:

<TABLE>

                        Second Quarter            First Six months
                    1999          1998          1999          1998

<S>          <C>           <C>           <C>           <C>

Diluted      161,536,000   161,655,000   161,891,000   162,625,000
</TABLE>

The difference between the basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding
is due to stock options and deferred stock rights.  JM paid regular quarterly
dividends of $0.06 per common share totaling $9.6 million, and $0.12 per common
share totaling $19.1 million, in the second quarter and first six months of
1999, respectively.  JM paid regular quarterly dividends of $0.04 per common
share totaling $6.5 million, and $0.08 per common share totaling $12.9 million,
for the second quarter and first six months of 1998, respectively.

In July, 1999, JM purchased 12.2 million shares of its common stock from the
Trust at $13.675 per share.  Accordingly, treasury stock, at cost, of $166.8
million will be recorded in the third quarter of 1999.  In the second quarter of
1998, JM purchased 3.6 million shares of its common stock from the Trust at $13
per share and recorded treasury stock, at cost, of $46.8 million.

Note 7 - Acquisitions

On January 1, 1999, JM completed the acquisition of Hoechst's
Spunbond/Monofilament operations.  This acquisition expands existing product
lines of JM's Engineered Products segment in North America and Europe.  The cash
payment for this acquisition, accounted for under the purchase method, was
$227.3 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments including
finalizations of the value of working capital acquired and ownership transfer of
a plant located in China. The acquisition was financed with borrowings from JM's
credit facilities.  The acquisition borrowings, drawn during 1998, were shown as
the acquisition deposit on JM's December 31, 1998 balance sheet. The allocation
of the purchase price will be finalized during 1999 upon completion of asset
valuations, determination of preacquisition contingencies and finalization of
restructuring decisions.  Based on preliminary estimates, JM's June 30, 1999
balance sheet reflects the following allocation of the $227.3 million cash
payment:

Note 8 - New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities."  This statement, along with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133 - an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" issued in July 1999, is effective for all
fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000 and establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging
activities.  It requires that JM recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value.  At this time, JM cannot determine the effects, if any, adopting
this statement will have on its financial condition, liquidity or results of
operations.

Net sales included in Eliminations relate principally to intersegment sales from
the Engineered Products segment to the Roofing Systems segment at prices
approximating market.  Operating assets primarily include amounts directly
assignable to each segment. These include trade receivables totaling $307.4
million and $239.9 million at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively;
inventory (at standard cost); goodwill; property, plant and equipment; and
capitalized software.  Capitalized software included in

Item 2.


                          JOHNS MANVILLE CORPORATION
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations

Net sales in the second quarter of 1999 increased $113.7 million, or 25.5
percent, to $558.9 million from $445.2 million for the same period of 1998.
Gross profit increased $42.1 million to $161.9 million from $119.8 million. The
gross profit margin for the second quarter of 1999 increased to 29 percent
compared with 26.9 percent for the same period of 1998 primarily due to an
improved pricing environment in building insulation and contributions from
acquisitions.  Selling, general and administrative and research, development and
engineering expenses, combined, increased $3.3 million, or 6.2 percent, to $56.6
million in 1999, in part due to acquisitions completed over the last year.
However, these expenses were lower as a percentage of sales at 10.1 percent
compared with 12 percent for 1998. Other expense, net, for 1999 was $6.1 million
reflecting higher pension expenses and higher goodwill amortization.  Other
income for 1998 included proceeds of $36 million from the sale of JM's five
percent net smelter royalty on certain metals produced by Stillwater Mining
Company.  Income from operations for the second quarter of 1999 was $99.2
million, up 52.6 percent, compared with $65 million for the second quarter of
1998, excluding the royalty gain.

Net sales in the first half of 1999 increased $220 million, or 26.4 percent, to
$1,054.6 million from $834.6 million for the same period of 1998.  Gross profit
increased $82.1 million to $297.7 million from $215.6 million. The gross profit
margin for the first half of 1999 increased to 28.2 percent from 25.8 percent
for 1998.  Selling, general and administrative and research, development and
engineering expenses, combined, increased $16.3 million, or 15.7 percent, to
$120.1 million in 1999, and were lower as a percentage of sales at 11.4 percent
compared with 12.4 percent for 1998.  Other expense, net, for 1999 was $13.4
million and includes higher pension expenses, goodwill amortization and expenses
related to JM's exploration of strategic alternatives.  Other income for 1998
was $34.4 million, including the royalty proceeds and settlement of escrowed
funds related to a landfill site formerly used by JM.  Income from operations
for the first half of 1999 was $164.2 million, up 49 percent, compared with
$110.1 million for 1998, excluding the royalty gain.

Insulation Segment

Net sales increased $29.8 million, or 17.2 percent, to $203 million for the
second quarter of 1999 from $173.2 million in 1998.  Income from operations
increased 92 percent to $44.5 million for the second quarter of 1999 from $23.2
million in 1998.  For the first half of 1999, net sales increased $58.4 million,
or 17.3 percent, to $396 million from $337.6 million in 1998. For the same
period, income from operations doubled to $83.6 million.  Reflecting strength
across JM's building insulation business, these increases are due largely to
improved selling prices, along with volume growth, as this industry has
continued to operate at full capacity in favorable North American residential
construction markets. The selling price improvements, along with volume and
productivity increases, also led to strong margins for both periods of 1999. Net
sales and gross profits in commercial and industrial insulation for the three
and six month periods of

                                     I-10
<PAGE>

1999 increased moderately compared with 1998 reflecting strength in OEM and fire
protection insulation volumes.

Roofing Systems Segment

Net sales increased $14.8 million, or 10 percent, to $162.1 million for the
second quarter of 1999 from $147.3 million for the second quarter of 1998.  For
the six months ended June 30, 1999, net sales increased $31.2 million, or 12.3
percent, to $284 million compared with $252.8 million for the same period of
1998.  These increases were driven by incremental volume growth from a December
1998 acquisition, coupled with strong demand throughout the industry. Despite
selling price pressures, volume-driven improvements for the 1999 periods led to
a 9 percent operating income increase to $16.8 million for the second quarter
and an 8.7 percent increase to $21.5 million for the first half of 1999.

Engineered Products Segment

Net sales increased $73.3 million, or 55.8 percent, to $204.6 million in the
second quarter of 1999 compared with $131.3 million for 1998. Income from
operations for the second quarter of 1999 increased $11.5 million, or 43.2
percent, to $37.9 million from $26.4 million for 1998. For the first half of
1999, net sales increased $137.9 million, or 53.6 percent, to $395.1 million
from $257.2 million. Income from operations for the six month periods increased
$10.4 million, or 21.3 percent, to $59.1 million for 1999 from $48.7 million in
1998. The incremental impacts of JM's January 1, 1999 acquisition of Hoechst's
Spunbond/Monofilament North American and European operations, produced
substantial increases in net sales, gross margin and operating income. The U.S.
mats and fibers business experienced significantly higher sales for both 1999
periods on volume growth from increased demand in roofing mats, specialty mats
and base fibers. Despite the volume gains, 1999 gross margins and operating
incomes for this business were adversely impacted by costs associated with a
scheduled furnace rebuild and an unfavorable product mix. Meanwhile, sales and
operating income declined for European mats and fibers and fabrics businesses
during 1999, reflecting continuing softness in European markets. Operating
income declined significantly in the filtration business in the second quarter
and first half of 1999 on lower volumes and selling prices related primarily to
continuing competitive pressures and weakness in Asian markets.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $1.6 million, or 19.2
percent, to $6.7 million for the second quarter of 1999 compared with $8.3
million in 1998.  Compared with the same period of 1998, interest expense, net,
decreased $4.8 million, or 25.8 percent, to $13.8 million for the first six
months of 1999.  These reductions were primarily due to the repurchase of
substantially all of JM's $400 million of 10.875 percent senior notes in May
1998 using revolving credit facilities with significantly lower interest rates.
Strong 1999 cash flows also contributed to the lower interest expenses, net.

Income Taxes

JM's year-to-date effective tax rates were approximately 22 percent in 1999 and
29 percent in 1998.  JM receives a tax deduction and a related reduction in its
effective tax rate for all payments JM makes to the Manville Personal Injury
Settlement Trust (the "Trust") and for all proceeds the Trust receives from
sales of JM's common stock at the time such payments or proceeds are transferred
to a special designated settlement fund of the Trust or paid to claimants.  JM
benefited from such stock sale proceeds and dividends during both years.

                                     I-11
<PAGE>

JM's income tax expense of $32.3 million for the first six months of 1999 at an
annual effective tax rate of approximately 22 percent reflects benefits from
July 1999 Trust stock sale proceeds.  JM's first quarter 1999 income tax expense
of $20.3 million at an effective rate of 35 percent did not include such
benefits as Trust stock sale proceeds were not anticipated at that time.
Consequently, income tax expense for the second quarter of 1999 was $12 million
representing a 13 percent effective tax rate.

Under Section 468B of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, JM is responsible for
income taxes on the taxable income of the Trust's specific settlement fund at a
tax rate of 15 percent.  Any such taxes paid generate a tax deduction for JM.
JM cannot predict the amount of any such future tax obligations.  However,
related liabilities could become material in certain situations including the
Trust monetizing, and retaining the proceeds of, a significant portion of its
investment in JM's common stock or the settlement of this obligation between JM
and the Trust.

Extraordinary Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

On June 30, 1999, JM prepaid a bond payable to the Trust in the principal amount
of $23.9 million, resulting in a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of
$5.8 million ($0.04 per share), net of taxes of $3.6 million.  The bond
consisted of fixed payments totaling $75 million per year in 2013 and 2014 and
had been discounted at 13 percent.

During the second quarter of 1998, JM repurchased substantially all of its $400
million of 10.875 percent senior notes due 2004.  The repurchase, consisting of
a tender offer for cash, resulted in an extraordinary loss on the early
extinguishment of debt of $31.8 million ($0.20 per share), net of taxes of $18.1
million.

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

Effective January 1, 1998, JM changed its method of accounting for glass furnace
rebuild costs to the capitalization method from the allowance method. The
cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle increased 1998 earnings
by $27.4 million ($0.17 per share), net of taxes of $17.9 million.

Net Income

Due to the factors discussed above, JM's net income for the second quarter of
1999 was $74.6 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared with net income for
the second quarter of 1998 of $33.2 million, or $0.20 per diluted share.  Year-
to-date net income for 1999 was $112.3 million, or $0.69 per diluted share
compared with net income for the same period of 1998 of $86.7 million, or $0.53
per diluted share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Johns Manville Corporation's agreements with its lenders contain financial and
general covenants. These include, among other things, limitations on borrowings,
investments and asset dispositions, and maintenance of various financial ratios.
Noncompliance with these or other covenants, or the occurrence of any other
event of default, could result in the termination of existing credit agreements
and the acceleration of debt owed by JM and its subsidiaries.  At June 30, 1999,
JM was in compliance with these covenants.

At June 30, 1999, JM had net working capital of $225.2 million, including cash
and marketable securities totaling $35.1 million.  Total cash and marketable
securities located outside the U.S. and Canada were approximately $26.1 million.
At December 31, 1998, cash and marketable securities totaled

                                     I-12
<PAGE>

$16.5 million. At June 30, 1999, JM had approximately $255 million available
under its $750 million unsecured multicurrency revolving credit facilities. JM's
international subsidiaries had additional borrowing and working capital
facilities totaling approximately $16.5 million, of which $14.9 million was
available at June 30, 1999.

Net operating activities provided $158.8 million of cash during the first six
months of 1999, including the premium on the prepayment of the bond payable to
the Trust. Net operating activities for the same period of 1998 provided $29.8
million, including the gain from the sale of the Stillwater mining royalty,
partially offset by the premium on the prepayment of the 10.875 percent senior
notes. Cash flows from operating activities are primarily influenced by selling
prices, sales volume and working capital requirements. As discussed in "Results
of Operations," JM benefited from selling price improvements, particularly in
building insulation, and overall volume increases during the first half of 1999.
Operating activities also included cash outlays to build working capital for the
construction season, which typically peaks during the third quarter. Such cash
usages were significantly lower in 1999 due to improved working capital
management, along with lower inventory builds resulting from high levels of
demand in building insulation and mats and fibers as these businesses operated
at full capacity. JM expects 1999 operating results to benefit from continued
strength in construction markets and housing starts, along with continuing
integration of acquisitions. Meanwhile, slower economic activity in Europe and
Asia may continue to adversely impact results in the Engineered Products
segment.

Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1999 included $65 million
for capital expenditures, principally to increase building insulation capacity
and to complete a furnace rebuild for mats and fibers. Estimated 1999 capital
expenditures total approximately $140 million excluding acquisitions, of which
approximately $59 million relate to capacity expansion projects.  As of June 30,
1999, outstanding purchase commitments for capital projects totaled $23.6
million. Investing activities for the first half of 1998 included the combined
purchase prices for acquisitions of $55 million, net of cash acquired, and
capital expenditures of $52.4 million.

Financing activities for the first half of 1999 consisted of repayments of debt
totaling $66.1 million, including the prepayment of $23.9 million of the bond
payable to the Trust discussed above.  Also during 1999 JM borrowed, and
subsequently repaid, $8.9 million under foreign facilities.  In addition, JM
paid dividends of $0.12 per common share totaling $19.1 million, and received
$4.6 million during the first half of 1999 from the exercise of stock options
previously granted to employees.  JM's financing activities for the first half
of 1998 reflected repayments of debt totaling $422 million and issuances of debt
totaling $411.2 million, net, relating primarily to the second quarter
repurchase of its 10.875 percent senior notes.  Also in 1998, JM purchased 3.6
million shares of its common stock from the Trust at $13 per share, and
recognized treasury stock, at cost, of $46.8 million and paid dividends of $0.08
per common share totaling $12.9 million.

On July 7, 1999, JM issued $200 million of unsecured senior notes in two
tranches: $75 million at 7.71 percent due in 2006; and $125 million at 7.92
percent due in 2009. A portion of the proceeds were used to partially finance
the July 1999 purchase of 12.2 million shares of JM's common stock from the
Trust at

                                     I-13
<PAGE>

$13.675 per share, resulting in the third quarter recognition of treasury stock
of $166.8 million.  The remaining proceeds were used to repay existing
indebtedness.

Contingent Product Liability

Between 1988 and 1992, JM manufactured phenolic roofing insulation which may,
under certain circumstances, contribute to the corrosion of metal decks on which
it is installed.  Subsequently, JM began a voluntary program to inspect such
metal decks and remediate where appropriate.  JM has accrued for costs relating
to future inspections, remediation and anticipated claims.  These accruals are
based on JM's historical experience regarding the incidence of corrosion and the
cost of remediation and include a number of assumptions related to the types of
roofs on which phenolic insulation has been installed as well as the assumption
that our past remediation experience will continue over the remaining lives of
roofs insulated with JM's phenolic roofing insulation.

Pursuant to reimbursement agreements with JM's liability carriers and former
owner of the phenolic roofing insulation business, JM is entitled to receive
reimbursement for a substantial portion of future costs to be incurred by JM for
inspection and remediation.

In 1996, JM and a third party were named as defendants in two class action
cases, now consolidated, filed in U.S. District Court in Boston, Massachusetts.
The plaintiffs purport to represent all building owners in the U.S. with
phenolic insulation installed on their roof decks and seek damages and
injunctive relief, including an order requiring the removal and replacement of
the phenolic insulation and remediation of any deck corrosion. JM is defending
these allegations vigorously.

JM has reviewed its historical inspection and remediation experience and the
terms and collectibility of amounts under the reimbursement agreements in light
of the contingencies described above.  Based on the information available to
date and subject to the assumptions described above, if additional costs are
incurred in excess of the accrued amounts, such costs are not expected to have a
material adverse effect on JM's financial condition, liquidity or results of
operations.

Environmental Contingencies

At June 30, 1999, JM had remediation activities in progress at four sites, out
of a total of 15 such sites for which JM has identified environmental conditions
requiring remediation. In addition, JM has been identified as a potentially
responsible party at 15 sites JM did not own or operate under the federal
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA")
or similar state legislation. Of these 15 sites, JM's potential liability for 12
sites will be determined pursuant to the settlement agreement described in the
following paragraph. Three of the sites may not be subject to the settlement
agreement and, accordingly, JM could be jointly and severally liable for costs
of remediating these sites. At one of the sites, only part of the liability will
be determined by the settlement agreement with the rest of the liability being
the subject of a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") de minimis
settlement offer.

In 1994, the U.S. government and JM settled certain litigation concerning
disposal activities prior to consummation of JM's plan of reorganization.  The
settlement agreement, which was made a court order, limits JM's future liability
under both CERCLA and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") to 55
percent of its share of site-wide response costs and natural

                                     I-14
<PAGE>

resources damages without regard to joint and several liability for disposals
made by JM prior to consummation of its plan of reorganization.  The agreement
resolved JM's liability at certain historical sites and also covers CERCLA and
RCRA liability for other disposal sites at which the EPA has incurred or may
incur response costs and which were used by JM prior to the consummation of the
plan of reorganization.  The agreement provides that the amount JM will be
obligated to pay, in the aggregate, for such sites shall never exceed $850,000
during any given year.  The EPA and others from time to time commence cleanup
activities at such sites, and in the future, the EPA and others may assert
claims against JM with respect to such sites. JM believes that all such
activities and claims, if any, will be subject to the agreement.

As a result of factors such as changes in federal and state regulations, the
application and effectiveness of remedial actions, the difficulty in assessing
the extent of environmental contamination, and the allocation of costs among
potentially responsible parties, actual costs to be incurred for environmental
cleanup may vary from previous estimates.  Subject to the uncertainties inherent
in evaluating environmental exposures, and based on information presently
available, including JM's historical remediation experience, currently enacted
environmental laws and regulations, and existing remediation technology, JM
believes that if additional costs are incurred in excess of the accrued amounts,
such costs are not expected to have a material adverse effect on JM's financial
condition, liquidity or results of operations.

Year 2000 Compliance

JM is engaged in a comprehensive project to modify its systems for year 2000
compliance.  JM's approach to year 2000 compliance activities may be broken down
into five general areas:

  .  inventory,
  .  analysis/planning,
  .  testing and repair/modification,
  .  certification, and
  .  contingency plans.

As of June 30, 1999, JM has completed substantially all of the inventory and
analysis/planning phases of the project which involved obtaining systems
inventories including:

  .  embedded technology,
  .  performing on-site audits at operating locations,
  .  contacting vendors to obtain compliant releases of hardware and software,
  .  establishing project plans, and
  .  associated implementation schedules.

Testing and repair/modification work and surveys of major suppliers to determine
their level of compliance began during the second quarter of 1998 and were
substantially completed during the second quarter of 1999.  Certifications began
during the fourth quarter of 1998, and were substantially completed by the
second quarter of 1999. Business continuity and contingency plans, including
among other things manual equipment operations and scheduling, are currently
being developed to address high risk areas as they are identified with
contingency plans in place by the end of 1999.  To date, the phases of the
project currently underway have progressed substantially as planned. Failure by
JM or its vendors and

                                     I-15
<PAGE>

customers to achieve year 2000 compliance could result in a disruption of
operations possibly impacting our ability to:

  .  obtain raw materials,
  .  produce products, or
  .  collect revenues.

However, JM believes that its compliance efforts will be successful and that
significant disruptions of operations are unlikely to develop.  JM has spent
approximately $3 million through June 30, 1999 on year 2000 projects and
activities.  Total costs for year 2000 related projects and activities, expected
to be completed in 1999, are currently estimated to be in the $4 to $5 million
range.  However, if additional costs are incurred in excess of the above
estimates, such costs are not expected to have a material adverse effect on JM's
financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations. All expenditures will
be funded through operations and will directly impact the reported level of
future income. The above discussion regarding costs, risks and estimated
completion dates for year 2000 compliance activities is based on estimates given
information that is currently available, and is subject to change.

Introduction of the Euro

On January 1, 1999, eleven countries of the European Union established a new
single European currency (the "Euro").  The Euro will become a currency in its
own right and will completely replace the currencies of the participating
countries by 2002. This conversion may affect, among other things, cross-border
competition among member countries, product pricing, exchange rate risk and
derivatives exposure, and information technology and systems.  JM's European
businesses, primarily in the Engineered Products segment, accounted for
approximately 20 percent of total sales for the first half of 1999.  JM is
addressing issues related to the conversion and, at this time, is not expecting
material adverse effects on its financial condition, liquidity, or results of
operations.

Acquisition

On January 1, 1999, JM completed the acquisition of Hoechst's
Spunbond/Monofilament operations.  This acquisition expands existing product
lines of the Engineered Products segment in North America and Europe.  The cash
payment for this acquisition, accounted for under the purchase method, was
$227.3 million subject to certain post-closing adjustments including
finalizations of the value of working capital acquired and ownership transfer of
a plant located in China.  The acquisition was financed with borrowings from
credit facilities.  The acquisition borrowings, drawn during December 1998, were
shown as the acquisition deposit on the balance sheet at December 31, 1998. The
preliminary allocation of the cash payment is reflected in the June 30, 1999
balance sheet and will be finalized during 1999 upon completion of asset
valuations and determination of preacquisition contingencies and finalization
of restructuring decisions.

Johns Manville Corporation believes that its current cash position, funds
available under credit facilities, and cash generated from operations will
enable it to satisfy its debt service requirements, its ongoing capital
expansion program and its other ongoing operating costs. However, JM may need to
access capital markets to pay the principal of its credit facilities, or in
connection with share repurchases or possible significant acquisitions.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Statements of JM contained in
this report concerning matters that are not historical facts, including, without
limitation, statements concerning:

  .  expected continued benefits from the integration of acquisitions,
  .  effect on 1999 operating results from strength in construction markets
      and housing starts,
  .  possible earnings decline from the economic slow down in Europe and
      Asia in the Engineered Products segment,
  .  expectations concerning levels of capital spending,
  .  expectations as to contingencies related to taxes, phenolic roofing
      insulation and environmental liabilities,
  .  estimates on the ability of JM and its vendors and customers to
      replace, modify or upgrade computer systems in ways that adequately
      address the year 2000 issue,
  .  expectations regarding the Euro conversion and
  .  the ability to satisfy its debt service requirements, its ongoing
      capital expansion program and its other ongoing operating costs

constitute such forward-looking statements.  See "Liquidity and Capital
Resources."

Forward-looking statements of JM are subject to risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such
statements.  Important factors relating to such risks and uncertainties are set
forth below.

Factors that could affect the forward-looking statements generally are related
to demand for JM's products, overall capacity levels in the industry and the
overall competitive environment in which we operate.  These factors are
discussed in "Business" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" in Johns Manville Corporation's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.

Factors that could affect JM's expected levels of capital spending, ability to
satisfy debt service requirements, ongoing capital expansion program and other
ongoing operating costs, include, without limitation, the general factors noted
above, the level of cash flow generated by JM and the ability of JM to otherwise
fund such commitments, which in turn could be affected by general U.S. and
international economic conditions as well as financial market conditions.

JM's ability to realize expected benefits from acquisitions depends on a number
of factors including, without limitation, successful integration of newly
acquired operations, technology, products, employees and the overall economic
factors referred to above.

Specific factors that might affect the ability of JM and its vendors and
customers to replace, modify or upgrade systems in ways that adequately address
the year 2000 issue include the ability to identify and correct all relevant
systems, unanticipated difficulties or delays in the implementation of our
remediation plans and the ability of third parties to adequately address their
own year 2000 issues, as well as those issues discussed in "Liquidity and
Capital Resources - Year 2000 Compliance."

TO EACH OF THE PURCHASERS LISTED IN
     THE ATTACHED SCHEDULE A:

Ladies and Gentlemen:

          Each of the undersigned, Johns Manville International, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), and Johns Manville Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), agrees with you as follows:

1.  AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES.

          The Issuer will authorize the issue and sale of $200 million aggregate
principal amount of its Series A Senior Notes, comprised of $75 million 7.71%
Series A Senior Notes, Tranche 1, due July 7, 2006 (the "Series A Notes, Tranche
1") and $125 million 7.92% Series A Senior Notes, Tranche 2, due July 7, 2009
(the "Series A Notes, Tranche 2" and, together with the Series A Notes, Tranche
1, the "Series A Notes", such latter term to include any such notes issued in
substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement or the Other
Agreements (as hereinafter defined)). The Series A Notes, Tranche 1, shall be
substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1-A-1, and the Series A Notes,
Tranche 2, shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1-A-2, in each
case with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by you and the
Issuer.  The Notes shall at all times be guaranteed by the Company pursuant to
the terms hereof and by the Subsidiary Guarantors, if any, pursuant to the
Subsidiary Guaranty.  Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are
defined in Schedule B; references to a "Schedule" or an "Exhibit" are, unless
otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement.

2.  SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTES.

2.1 Series A Notes.

          Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuer will
issue and sell to you and you will purchase from the Issuer, at the Closing
provided for in Section 3, Series A Notes in the principal amount specified
opposite your name in Schedule A at the purchase
<PAGE>

price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. Contemporaneously with entering
into this Agreement, the Company and the Issuer are entering into separate Note
Purchase Agreements (the "Other Agreements") identical with this Agreement with
each of the other purchasers named in Schedule A (the "Other Purchasers"),
providing for the sale at such Closing to each of the Other Purchasers of Notes
in the principal amount specified opposite its name in Schedule A. Your
obligation hereunder and the obligations of the Other Purchasers under the Other
Agreements are several and not joint obligations and you shall have no
obligation under any Other Agreement and no liability to any Person for the
performance or non-performance by any Other Purchaser thereunder.

2.2  Additional Series of Notes.

          The Issuer may, from time to time, in its sole discretion but subject
to the terms hereof, issue and sell one or more additional Series of its
unsecured promissory notes under the provisions of this Agreement and the Other
Agreements (collectively, the "Agreements") pursuant to a supplement (a
"Supplement") substantially in the form of Exhibit S.  Each additional Series of
Notes (the "Additional Notes") issued pursuant to a Supplement shall be subject
to the following terms and conditions:

          (a)  each Series of Additional Notes, when so issued, shall be
differentiated from all previous series by sequential alphabetical designation
inscribed thereon;

          (b)  Additional Notes of the same Series may consist of more than one
different and separate tranches and may differ with respect to outstanding
principal amounts, maturity dates, interest rates and premiums, if any, and
price and terms of redemption or payment prior to maturity, but all such
different and separate tranches of the same Series shall vote as a single class
and constitute one Series;

          (c)  each Series of Additional Notes shall be dated the date of issue,
bear interest at such rate or rates, mature on such date or dates, be subject to
such mandatory and optional prepayment on the dates and at the premiums, if any,
have such additional or different conditions precedent to closing, such
representations and warranties and such additional covenants as shall be
specified in the Supplement under which such Additional Notes are issued;

          (d)  each reference to "you" in the Agreements shall be deemed to be a
reference to each Additional Purchaser, unless otherwise specified in the
applicable Supplement or unless the context otherwise requires;

          (e)  each Series of Additional Notes issued under the Agreements shall
be in substantially the form of Exhibit 1 to Exhibit S hereto with such
variations, omissions and insertions as are necessary or permitted hereunder;

          (f)  the minimum principal amount of any Note issued under a
Supplement shall be $1,000,000, except as may be necessary to evidence the
outstanding amount of any Note originally issued in a denomination of $1,000,000
or more;

          (g)  all Additional Notes shall constitute senior Debt of the Issuer
and shall rank pari passu with all other outstanding Notes; and


                                       2
<PAGE>

          (h)  no Additional Notes shall be issued hereunder if at the time of
issuance thereof and after giving effect to such issuance and the application of
the proceeds thereof, there exists or would exist any Default or Event of
Default.

3.   CLOSING.

          The sale and purchase of the Series A Notes to be purchased by you and
the Other Purchasers shall occur at the offices of O'Melveny & Myers LLP, 400
South Hope Street, Los Angeles, California 90071, at 8:00 a.m., Los Angeles
time, at a closing (the "Closing") on July 7, 1999 or on such other Business Day
thereafter on or prior to July 9, 1999 as may be agreed upon by the Company, the
Issuer and you and the Other Purchasers.  At the Closing the Issuer will deliver
to you the Series A Notes to be purchased by you in the form of a single Series
A Note for each Tranche to be purchased (or such greater number of Series A
Notes in denominations of at least $100,000 as you may request) dated the date
of the Closing and registered in your name (or in the name of your nominee),
against delivery by you to the Issuer or its order of immediately available
funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of
immediately available funds for the account of the Issuer to account number
1990472 at Mellon Bank, Pittsburgh, ABA #043000261.  If at the Closing the
Issuer shall fail to tender such Series A Notes to you as provided above in this

          The Company and the Issuer, jointly and severally, represent and
warrant to you that:

5.1   Organization; Power and Authority.

          Each of the Company and the Issuer is a corporation duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
incorporation, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law,
other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in
good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected

                                       6
<PAGE>

to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each of the Company and the Issuer
has the corporate power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties
it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts,
to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Other Agreements and, in the case
of the Issuer, the Notes and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof.

5.2   Authorization, etc.

          This Agreement, the Other Agreements and, in the case of the Issuer,
the Notes, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the
part of the Company and the Issuer, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon
execution and delivery thereof each Note, in the case of the Issuer, will
constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and the Issuer,
as applicable, enforceable against the Company and the Issuer, as applicable, in
accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i)
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar
laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (ii) general
principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law).

5.3   Disclosure.

          The Company and the Issuer, through their agent, Banc of America
Securities LLC, has delivered to you and each Other Purchaser a copy of a
Private Placement Memorandum, dated June 1999 (the "Memorandum"), relating to
the transactions contemplated hereby.  The Memorandum fairly describes, in all
material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties
of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries.  Except as disclosed in Schedule
5.3, this Agreement, the Memorandum (other than the sections on the cover page
describing Banc of America Securities LLC), the documents, certificates or other
writings delivered to you by or on behalf of the Company or the Issuer in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the financial
statements listed in Schedule 5.5, taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under
which they were made.  Except as disclosed in the Memorandum or as expressly
described in Schedule 5.3, or in one of the documents, certificates or other
writings identified therein, or in the financial statements listed in Schedule
5.5, since December 31, 1998, there has been no change in the financial
condition, operations, business or properties of the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  There is no fact
known to the Company or the Issuer that could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Memorandum
or in the other documents, certificates and other writings delivered to you by
or on behalf of the Company or the Issuer specifically for use in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby.

5.4   Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries; Affiliates.

          (a)  Schedule 5.4 contains (except as noted therein) complete and
correct lists (i) of the Company's Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary,
the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, the percentage
of shares of each class of its capital stock or

                                       7
<PAGE>

similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other
Subsidiary and whether such Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary or an
Unrestricted Subsidiary, (ii) of the Company's Affiliates, other than
Subsidiaries, and (iii) of the Company's and the Issuer's directors and senior
officers.

          (b)  All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity
interests of each Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4 as being owned by the Company
and its Subsidiaries (excluding any directors' qualifying shares or shares held
by other persons as a result of similar types of arrangements) have been validly
issued, are fully paid and nonassessable (except as otherwise disclosed in
Schedule 5.4) and are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary free and clear
of any Lien (except as otherwise disclosed in Schedule 5.4).

          (c)  Each Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.4 is a corporation or
other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign
corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction
in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions
as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and
authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold
under lease and to transact the business it transacts.

          (d)  No Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to, any legal
restriction or any agreement (other than this Agreement, the agreements listed
on Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law statutes)
restricting the ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or
make any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity
interests of such Subsidiary.

5.5   Financial Statements.

          The Company has delivered, or caused to be delivered, to each
Purchaser copies of the financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries
listed on Schedule 5.5.  All of said financial statements (including in each
case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects
the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of
the respective dates specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results of
their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the
periods involved, except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case
of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments).

5.6   Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, etc.

          The execution, delivery and performance by the Company and the Issuer
of this Agreement, and in the case of the Issuer, the Notes, will not (i)
contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in
the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary under, any Material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease or any other Material agreement or
instrument to which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is bound or by
which the Company or any

                                       8
<PAGE>

Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or
affected, except, in each case, for such breaches, defaults, conflicts or
violations which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, (ii) violate the corporate charter or the by-laws of the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary, (iii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the
terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any
court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary or (iv) violate any provision of any statute or other rule
or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary.

5.7   Governmental Authorizations, etc.

          Assuming the accuracy of your and the Other Purchasers'
representations and warranties set forth in Section 6, no consent, approval or
authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental
Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance
by (i) the Company or the Issuer of this Agreement, and (ii) the Issuer of the
Notes, except such as may be required under state securities laws.

5.8  Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders.

          (a)  Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.8, there are no actions, suits
or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against
or affecting the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or any property of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of
any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the
aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (b)  Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary is in default
under any term of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which
it is bound, or any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator
or Governmental Authority or is in violation of any applicable law, ordinance,
rule or regulation (including without limitation Environmental Laws) of any
Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in the
aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.9   Taxes.

          The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns that are
required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown
to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied
upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such
taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become
delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (i) the amount of which is not
individually or in the aggregate Material or (ii) the amount, applicability or
validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case
may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP.  The Company
knows of no basis for any other tax or assessment that could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The charges, accruals and reserves
on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of Federal, state or
other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate in accordance with GAAP.  The
Federal income tax

                                       9
<PAGE>

liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been determined by the
Internal Revenue Service and paid for all fiscal years up to and including the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1991.

5.10  Title to Property; Leases.

          The Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries have good and sufficient
title to their respective properties which they own that individually or in the
aggregate are Material, including all such properties reflected in the most
recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5 or purported to have
been acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary after said date
(except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in
each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement.  All leases of
the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries that individually or in the aggregate
are Material are valid and subsisting and are in full force and effect in all
Material respects.

5.11  Licenses, Permits, etc.

          Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.11,

          (a)  the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries own or possess all
Material licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, copyrights,
service marks, trademarks and trade names, or rights thereto, that individually
or in the aggregate are Material, without known Material conflict with the
rights of others;

          (b)  to the best knowledge of the Company, no product of the Company
or the Issuer infringes in any Material respect any license, permit, franchise,
authorization, patent, copyright, service mark, trademark, trade name or other
right owned by any other Person; and

          (c)  to the best knowledge of the Company, there is no Material
violation by any Person of any right of the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries with respect to any patent, copyright, service mark, trademark,
trade name or other right owned or used by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries.

5.12  Compliance with ERISA.

          (a)  The Company and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and
administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws, except for such
instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any
ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or
the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to employee benefit
plans (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition
has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the
incurrence of any such liability by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, or in
the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of the
Company or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I or IV of
ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax provisions or to Section 401(a)(29) or
412 of the Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be
individually or in the aggregate Material.

                                      10
<PAGE>

          (b)  The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each
of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of the end of such
Plan's most recently ended plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions
specified for funding purposes in such Plan's most recent actuarial valuation
report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Plan
allocable to such benefit liabilities as set forth in the Actuarial Report dated
January 1, 1998, prepared by William M. Mercer, Inc. The term "benefit
liabilities" has the meaning specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms
"current value" and "present value" have the respective meanings specified in
section 3 of ERISA.

          (c)  The Company and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal
liabilities (and are not subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities) under
section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that
individually or in the aggregate are Material.

          (d)  The expected postretirement benefit obligation (determined as of
the last day of the Company's most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 106, without regard to
liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of
the Code) of the Company and its Subsidiaries is not Material or has otherwise
been disclosed in the most recent audited consolidated financial statements of
the Company and its Subsidiaries.

          (e)  The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance and
sale of the Notes hereunder will not involve any transaction that is subject to
the prohibitions of section 406 of ERISA or in connection with which a tax could
be imposed pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code, which in either
event could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The
representation by the Company in the first sentence of this Section 5.12(e) is
made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of your representation in
Section 6.2 as to the sources of the funds used to pay the purchase price of the
Notes to be purchased by you.

5.13  Private Offering by the Issuer.

          Neither the Issuer nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the
Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any
of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with,
any person other than you, the Other Purchasers and not more than 51 other
Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Notes at a private
sale for investment.  Neither the Company, the Issuer nor, to the Company's or
the Issuer's knowledge, anyone acting on their behalf has taken, or will take,
any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the
registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act.  The Company and
the Issuer have not retained any Person other than Banc of America Securities
LLC as their agent or otherwise to act on their behalf in connection with the
offer or sale of the Notes.

5.14  Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.

          The Issuer will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Notes as set
forth in Schedule 5.14.  No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes
hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or
carrying any margin stock within the meaning of

                                      11
<PAGE>

Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR
221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities
under such circumstances as to involve the Issuer in a violation of Regulation X
of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of
Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not constitute more
than 10% of the value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin
stock will constitute more than 10% of the value of such assets. As used in this
Section, the terms "margin stock" and "purpose of buying or carrying" shall have
the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.

5.15  Existing Debt; Future Liens.

          (a)  Except as described therein, Schedule 5.15 sets forth a complete
and correct list of all outstanding Debt of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999, since which date there has been no Material
change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or
maturities of the Debt of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, except for
normal fluctuations in the ordinary course of business. Neither the Company nor
any Restricted Subsidiary is in default, and no waiver of default is currently
in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Debt of the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, the outstanding principal amount of which
exceeds $5,000,000, and no event or condition exists with respect to any Debt of
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, the outstanding principal amount of
which exceeds $5,000,000, that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of
time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Debt to become
due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled
dates of payment.

          (b)  Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15, neither the Company nor any
Restricted Subsidiary has agreed or consented to cause or permit in the future
(upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property, whether
now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien not permitted by
Section 10.3.

5.16  Foreign Assets Control Regulations, etc.

          Neither the sale of the Notes by the Issuer hereunder nor its use of
the proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or
any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury
Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling
legislation or executive order relating thereto.

5.17  Status under Certain Statutes.

          Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary is subject to
regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended, the Interstate Commerce Act, as
amended, or the Federal Power Act, as amended.

                                      12
<PAGE>

5.18  Environmental Matters.

          Except as disclosed in the Company's Form 10-K with respect to its
fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 or in its Form 10-Q with respect to the
three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company conducts in the ordinary course
of business a review of the effect of existing Environmental Laws and existing
Environmental Claims on the business, operations and properties of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, and as a result thereof the Company has reasonably
concluded that such Environmental Laws and Environmental Claims would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

5.19  Year 2000.

          The Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries have implemented measures
to have all critical business systems year-2000 compliant in a timely manner,
and the advent of the year 2000 and its impact on such business systems is not
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.    REPRESENTATIONS OF THE PURCHASER.

6.1   Purchase for Investment.

included in such investment fund have been disclosed to the Company in writing
pursuant to this paragraph (c); or

          (d)  the Source is a governmental plan; or

          (e)  the Source is one or more employee benefit plans, or a separate
account or trust fund comprised of one or more employee benefit plans, each of
which has been identified to the Company in writing pursuant to this paragraph
(e); or

          (f)  the Source does not include assets of any employee benefit plan,
other than a plan exempt from the coverage of ERISA.

          The Company shall permit the representatives of each holder of Notes
that is an Institutional Investor:

8.    PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES.

8.1   Required Prepayments.

          No regularly scheduled prepayment of principal of the Notes is
required prior to the date of their maturity.

8.2  Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount.

          The Issuer may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay
at any time on a Business Day all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes
of any Series or of any Tranche within a Series, in an amount not less than 5%
of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such Series or of such
Tranche, as applicable, then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at
100% of the principal amount so prepaid, plus the Make-Whole Amount determined
for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount.  The Issuer will
give each holder of Notes of the Series or Tranche within a Series to be prepaid
written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than
30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment.
Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes of such Series or Tranche within a Series to be prepaid on such date, the
principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in
accordance with Section 8.4), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date
with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by
a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer of the Issuer as to the estimated
Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the
date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details
of such computation.  Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Issuer
shall deliver to each holder of Notes of the Series or Tranche within a Series
to be prepaid a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer of the Issuer
specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified
prepayment date.

                                      18

8.3   Change in Control.

          (a)  Notice of Change in Control. The Company will, within 10 days
after any Responsible Officer has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change in
Control, give written notice of such Change in Control to each holder of Notes.
Such notice shall contain and constitute an offer by the Issuer to prepay Notes
as described in subparagraph (b) of this Section and shall be accompanied by the
certificate described in subparagraph (e) of this Section.

          (b)  Offer to Prepay Notes. The offer to prepay Notes contemplated by
subparagraph (a) of this Section shall be an offer to prepay, in accordance with
and subject to this Section, all, but not less than all, the Notes held by each
holder (in this case only, "holder" in respect of any Note registered in the
name of a nominee for a disclosed beneficial owner shall mean such beneficial
owner) on a date (which shall be a Business Day) specified in such offer (the
"Proposed Prepayment Date"). Such date shall be not less than 30 days and not
more than 35 days after the date of such offer (if the Proposed Prepayment Date
shall not be specified in such offer, the Proposed Prepayment Date shall be the
first Business Day after the 30th day after the date of such offer).

          (c)  Acceptance. A holder of Notes may accept the offer to prepay made
pursuant to this Section by causing a notice of such acceptance to be delivered
to the Issuer not later than 20 days after receipt by such holder of the offer
of prepayment. A failure by a holder of Notes to respond by such date to an
offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to constitute a
rejection of such offer by such holder.

          (d)  Prepayment. Prepayment of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to
this Section shall be at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes, together
with interest on such Notes accrued to the date of prepayment, but without Make-
Whole Amount or other premium. The prepayment shall be made on the Proposed
Prepayment Date.

          (e)  Officer's Certificate. Each offer to prepay the Notes pursuant to
this Section shall be accompanied by a certificate, executed by a Senior
Financial Officer of the Issuer and dated the date of such offer, specifying:
(i) the Proposed Prepayment Date; (ii) that such offer is made pursuant to this
Section 8.3; (iii) the principal amount of each Note offered to be prepaid; (iv)
the interest that would be due on each Note offered to be prepaid, accrued to
the Proposed Prepayment Date; (v) that the conditions of this Section have been
fulfilled; and (vi) in reasonable detail, the nature and date of the Change in
Control.

          (f)  Certain Definitions. A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to
have occurred if:

          (i)  any person (as such term is used in Section 13(d) and Section
          14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act as in effect on the date of the Closing)
          or related persons constituting a group (as such term is used in Rule
          13d-5 under the Exchange Act), other than the Trust, become the
          "beneficial owners" (as such term is used in Rule 13d-3 under the
          Exchange Act as in effect on the date of the Closing), directly or
          indirectly, of more than 35% of the total voting power of all classes
          then outstanding of the Company's voting securities, and

                                      19
<PAGE>

          (ii)   the percentage of the voting securities of the Company of which
          such person or group of persons is the direct or indirect beneficial
          owner exceeds the percentage of the voting securities of which the
          Trust is the direct or indirect beneficial owner;

provided, that the right to acquire, directly or indirectly, voting securities
of the Company pursuant to an outstanding option, warrant or similar right
(each, a "Right") shall not constitute the "beneficial ownership" of the voting
securities that are subject to the Right, and such voting securities shall not
be deemed to be beneficially owned by the person or group of persons that holds,
directly or indirectly, the Right, until the Right has been exercised and the
voting securities subject thereto have been acquired, directly or indirectly, by
such person or group of persons.

8.4  Allocation of Partial Prepayments.

          In the case of each partial prepayment of any Series (or Tranche
within a Series) of Notes, the principal amount of the Notes of such Series or
Tranche to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes of the Series or
Tranche to be prepaid at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as
practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore
called for prepayment.  All regularly scheduled partial prepayments, if any,
made with respect to any Additional Series of Notes pursuant to any Supplement
shall be allocated as therein provided.

8.5  Maturity; Surrender, etc.

          In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8,
the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and
payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such
principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if
any.  From and after such date, unless the Issuer shall fail to pay such
principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-
Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall
cease to accrue.  Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the
Issuer and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in
lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

8.6  Purchase of Notes.

          The Company will not and will not permit any Subsidiary or Affiliate
to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of
the outstanding Notes except (i) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including any Supplement) and the
Notes, or (ii) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by the Issuer or a
Subsidiary or Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes of a Series (or a
Tranche within a Series) at the time outstanding upon the same terms and
conditions, provided that any such offer shall not be for less than par value of
the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, and provided further that no Default
or Event of Default shall exist at the time of the offer, or would exist if the
offer is accepted and the Notes subject thereto are so purchased, redeemed,
prepaid or otherwise acquired.  The failure by the Issuer or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate to pay a Make-Whole Amount in connection with any such offer shall not
of and by itself be deemed to


                                      20
<PAGE>

constitute a Default or an Event of Default. The Issuer will promptly cancel all
Notes acquired by it or any Subsidiary or Affiliate pursuant to any payment,
prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and
no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

8.7  Make-Whole Amount.

          The term "Make-Whole Amount" means, with respect to any Note, an
amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining
Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the
amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no
event be less than zero.  For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount,
the following terms have the following meanings:

          "Called Principal" means, with respect to any Note, the principal of
          such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become
          or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section
          12.1, as the context requires.

          "Discounted Value" means, with respect to the Called Principal of any
          Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled
          Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective
          scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called
          Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a
          discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which
          interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with
          respect to such Called Principal.

          "Reinvestment Yield" means, with respect to the Called Principal of
          any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields
          reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business
          Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called
          Principal, on the display designated as "Page PX1" (or other
          appropriate page) of the Bloomberg Financial Markets Services Screen
          (or such other display as may replace Page PX1 (or other appropriate
          page) on the Bloomberg Financial Markets Services Screen) for actively
          traded U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the
          Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement
          Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the
          yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable, the Treasury
          Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which
          such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day
          preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal,
          in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable
          successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities
          having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such
          Called Principal as of such Settlement Date.  Such implied yield will
          be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill
          quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted
          financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the
          actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the duration closest to
          and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively
          traded U.S. Treasury security with the duration closest to and less
          than the Remaining Average Life.


                                      21
<PAGE>

          "Remaining Average Life"  means, with respect to any Called Principal,
          the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year)
          obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of
          the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of
          each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal
          by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth
          year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to
          such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining
          Scheduled Payment.

          "Remaining Scheduled Payments" means, with respect to the Called
          Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and
          interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with
          respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called
          Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if
          such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due
          to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next
          succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of
          interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on
          such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or 12.1.

          "Settlement Date" means, with respect to the Called Principal of any
          Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid
          pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately
          due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

9.    AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

          The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are
outstanding:

9.1   Compliance with Law.

          The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply
with all laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations to which each of
them is subject, including, without limitation, Environmental Laws, and will
obtain and maintain in effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises
and other governmental authorizations necessary to the ownership of their
respective properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each
case to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance with such laws,
ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or
maintain in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other
governmental authorizations could not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and except as such non-
compliance is being contested by the Company or such Subsidiary in good faith or
as to which a bona fide dispute exists.

9.2   Insurance.

          The Company will and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
maintain, insurance with (i) financially sound and reputable insurers or (ii) a
system of self insurance in accordance with risk management practices, with
respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties
and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such


                                      22
<PAGE>

amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate
reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of
entities engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated.

9.3   Maintenance of Properties.

          The Company will and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective
properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear
and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be
properly conducted at all times, provided that this Section shall not prevent
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and
the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in
the conduct of its business and the Company has concluded that such
discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.4   Payment of Taxes and Claims.

          The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to file all
tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge
all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes,
assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on them or any of their
properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and
assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent
and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might
become a Lien on properties or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, provided
that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary need pay any such tax or assessment
or claims if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by
the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in
appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Subsidiary has established
adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company
or such Subsidiary or (ii) the nonfiling or nonpayment, as the case may be, of
all such taxes and assessments in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.5   Corporate Existence, etc.

          The Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and
effect its corporate existence.  Subject to Section 10.2, the Company will at
all times preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of
each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (unless merged with or into, or transferred
to, the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises
of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries necessary or desirable in the
conduct of their business unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the
termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such
corporate existence, right or franchise could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.6  Execution of Subsidiary Guaranty.

          In the event that after the date of Closing any U.S. Subsidiary
becomes a Material Subsidiary or the Company acquires a U.S. Subsidiary which is
a Material Subsidiary, the Company will promptly notify the holders of the Notes
of that fact and will promptly cause each such Material Subsidiary to execute
and deliver to the holders of the Notes a counterpart of the


                                      23
<PAGE>

Subsidiary Guaranty; provided that the Company shall cause its U.S. Subsidiaries
that are not Material Subsidiaries also to execute and deliver to the holders of
the Notes a counterpart of the Subsidiary Guaranty (and will promptly notify the
holders of the Notes thereof) to the extent necessary to ensure that (i) the
Company's and its Subsidiaries' proportional share of the total assets (after
intercompany eliminations) of all U.S. Subsidiaries that are not Subsidiary
Guarantors (other than the Issuer) does not exceed 20% of the Company's and its
Subsidiaries' proportional share of the total assets (after intercompany
eliminations) of all U.S. Subsidiaries (including the Issuer); and (ii) the
income from continuing operations before income taxes, extraordinary items and
cumulative effect of any change in accounting principles of all U.S.
Subsidiaries that are not Subsidiary Guarantors (other than the Issuer) does not
exceed 20% of such income of all U.S. Subsidiaries (including the Issuer), as of
the end of or for, as the case may be, the then most recently completed fiscal
year of the Company, based upon the annual financial statements for the most
recently completed fiscal year of the Company. The Company shall deliver to the
holders of the Notes, together with such counterpart of the Subsidiary Guaranty,
(i) certified copies of such Subsidiary Guarantor's Articles or Certificate of
Incorporation, together with a good standing certificate from the Secretary of
State of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, each to be dated a recent date
prior to their delivery to the holders of the Notes, (ii) a copy of such
Subsidiary Guarantor's Bylaws, certified by its corporate secretary or an
assistant corporate secretary as of a recent date prior to their delivery to the
holders of the Notes, (iii) a certificate executed by the secretary or an
assistant secretary of such Subsidiary Guarantor as to (a) the incumbency and
signatures of the officers of such Subsidiary Guarantor executing the
counterpart of the Subsidiary Guaranty and (b) the fact that the attached
resolutions of the Board of Directors of such Subsidiary Guarantor authorizing
the execution, delivery and performance of the counterpart of the Subsidiary
Guaranty are in full force and effect and have not been modified or rescinded,
and (iv) a favorable opinion of counsel to Company and such Subsidiary
Guarantor, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders
and their counsel, as to (a) the due organization and good standing of such
Subsidiary Guarantor, (b) the due authorization, execution and delivery by such
Subsidiary Guarantor of the counterpart of the Subsidiary Guaranty, (c) the
enforceability of the counterpart of the Subsidiary Guaranty, and (d) such other
matters as the Required Holders may reasonably request, all of the foregoing to
be satisfactory in form and substance to the Required Holders and their counsel.

          The Company will not and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to
enter into directly or indirectly any Material transaction or Material group of
related transactions (including without limitation the purchase, lease, sale or

Affiliate (other than the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary), except (a)
in the ordinary course and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of the
Company's or such Restricted Subsidiary's business and upon fair and reasonable
terms no less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than would
be obtainable in a comparable arm's-length transaction with a Person not an
Affiliate or, (b) in the case of any Material transaction or


                                      24

Company who are not trustees of the Trust that such transaction or group of
related transactions is fair and in the best interests of the Company and its
Subsidiaries.

10.2  Merger, Consolidation, Sale of Assets, etc.

         (a)  The Company will not and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary

          or into, or convey, transfer or lease substantially all of its assets
          in a single transaction or series of transactions to, the Company,
          another Restricted Subsidiary or, in the case of a consolidation or
          merger, any other Person so long as the surviving or continuing
          corporation is a Restricted Subsidiary (provided that the Company
          and/or its Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiaries retain at least the
          same ownership interest in the surviving Restricted Subsidiary as it
          or they held in the discontinued Restricted Subsidiary) and so long as
          in any merger or consolidation involving the Company or the Issuer,
          either (1) the Company or the Issuer, as the case may be, shall be the
          surviving or continuing corporation or (2) the merger or consolidation
          is permitted by clause (ii) of this Section 10.2(a) and (y) convey,
          transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets to any Person
          in compliance with the provisions of Section 10.2(b); and

          with or into, or convey, transfer or lease substantially all of its
          assets to, any other corporation if,

                    (A) in the case of a consolidation or merger, the surviving
          or continuing corporation is the Company or the Issuer, as the case
          may be, or

                    (B) the successor corporation (the "surviving corporation")
          which results from such consolidation or merger or the corporation to
          which all or substantially all of the Company's or the Issuer's assets
          have been conveyed, transferred or leased (x) shall be a solvent

          Series, taken collectively, to the effect that the instrument of
          assumption has been


                                      25
<PAGE>

          duly authorized, executed and delivered by the surviving corporation
          and constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the
          surviving corporation, enforceable against the surviving corporation
          in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement of such terms may
          be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and
          similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally
          and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether such
          enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and

          described in clauses (A) or (B) above, (x) no Default or Event of
          Default would exist, and (y) the surviving entity would be able to
          incur at least $1.00 of Debt under Section 10.5.

Company, the Issuer or any successor corporation that shall theretofore have
become such in the manner prescribed in this Section 10.2 from its liability
under this Agreement or, in the case of the Issuer, the Notes.

          (b)  Subject to Section 10.2(a), the Company will not, and will not

or otherwise dispose of assets to any Person; provided that the foregoing
restrictions do not apply to:

               (i)   the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of assets of
          the Company to the Issuer or of the Issuer to the Company or of the
          Company or the Issuer to a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary or of a
          Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Issuer) to the Company or
          another Restricted Subsidiary;

               (ii)  the sale in the ordinary course of business of (1)
          inventory held for sale, or (2) equipment, fixtures, supplies or
          materials no longer required in the operation of the business of the
          Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or that is obsolete;

               (iii) the sale by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of
          property and the subsequent lease, as lessee, of the same property,
          within 365 days following the acquisition or construction of such
          property;

               (iv)  the sale or other disposition of Permitted Receivables
          pursuant to the Permitted Receivables Facility, provided that the

          Total Assets determined as of the end of the immediately preceding
          fiscal quarter;

               (v)   the sale of assets for cash or other property to a Person
          or Persons (other than an Affiliate) if all of the following
          conditions are met:

                     (1) such assets (valued at net book value) do not
          constitute a "substantial part" of the assets of the Company and its
          Restricted Subsidiaries;


                                      26
<PAGE>

                     (2) in the opinion of a Responsible Officer of the Company,
          the sale is for fair value and is in the best interests of the
          Company; and

                     (3) immediately after the consummation of the transaction

               (vi)  the sale of assets meeting the conditions set forth in
          clauses (2) and (3) of subparagraph (v) above, as long as the proceeds
          from such sale in excess of a substantial part of the assets of the
          Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are (i) applied within 365
          days of the date of sale of such assets to the acquisition of fixed
          assets or other property useful and intended to be used in the
          operation of the business of the Company or its Restricted

          the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with the right to
          obtain loans or other extensions of credit from time to time, except
          to the extent that in connection with such payment of Debt the
          availability of credit under such credit facility is permanently
          reduced by an amount not less than the amount of such proceeds applied
          to the payment of such Debt).

          (c)  For purposes of Section 10.2(b), a sale of assets will be deemed
to involve a "substantial part" of the assets of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries if the book value of such assets, together with all other assets
sold during the immediately preceding 12-calendar month period (except those
assets sold pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 10.2(b)) exceeds 15% of
the Consolidated Total Assets determined as of the end of the immediately
preceding fiscal year.

          (d)  The Company will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to issue or
sell any of its stock (or any options or warrants to purchase stock or other
Securities exchangeable for or convertible into stock) except to the Company or
a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary and except to another Person in connection
with the establishment by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of a
Joint Venture with such Person.

          (e)  The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of its interest in any stock
(or any options or warrants to purchase stock or other Securities exchangeable

Company or a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary) unless such sale, transfer or
disposition would be permitted under Section 10.2(b).

10.3  Liens.

          The Company will not and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit to
exist (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any Lien on or with
respect to any property or asset (including, without limitation, any document or
instrument in respect of goods or accounts receivable) of the Company or any
such Restricted Subsidiary, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or any

income or profits (unless it makes, or causes to be made, effective provision
whereby the Notes will be equally and ratably secured with any and all other
obligations thereby secured, such security to be pursuant to an agreement
reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders and, in any such case, the Notes
shall have the benefit, to the fullest extent that, and with such priority as,
the holders of the Notes may be entitled under applicable law, of any equitable
Lien on such property), except for the following (which are collectively
referred to as "Permitted Liens"):

          (a)  Liens for taxes, assessments or other governmental levies or

construction by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and not created in
contemplation thereof; (ii) on property created contemporaneously with its

Person is consolidated with or merged with the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary and not created in contemplation thereof; provided that such Liens
shall attach solely to the property acquired or constructed and the principal
amount of the Debt secured by the Lien shall not exceed the lesser of the cost
of acquisition or construction or fair market value of such property

                                      28
<PAGE>

delegated by the board of directors of the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary);

          (i)  any Liens renewing, extending or replacing Liens permitted by

through (k) of this Section 10.3, any other Liens securing Debt of the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary, provided that the aggregate amount of such Debt
shall not exceed an amount equal to 10% of Consolidated Total Capitalization as
of the then most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company.

10.4  Minimum Consolidated Net Worth.

          The Company will not permit Consolidated Net Worth to be at any time
less than (a) the sum of (i) $550,000,000 plus (ii) an aggregate amount equal to

10.5  Limitation on Consolidated Debt.

          The Company will not permit, as of the end of each fiscal quarter of
the Company, the ratio of (i) Consolidated Debt as at the end of such fiscal
quarter to (ii) Consolidated Operating Cash Flow for the period consisting of
such fiscal quarter and the immediately preceding three-fiscal-quarter period,
to exceed 3.50 to 1.0; provided that if the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
has acquired productive properties during such fiscal quarter or the immediately
preceding three-fiscal-quarter period, for purposes of this Section 10.5,
Consolidated Operating Cash Flow shall be adjusted on a pro forma basis to
include the operating cash flow of such acquired properties for the period of up
to three fiscal quarters ended prior to the fiscal quarter during which such

10.6  Nature of Business.

          Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary will engage in any
new or additional business if, as a result, the general nature of the business
of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken on a consolidated basis,
which would then be engaged in by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
would be substantially changed from the general nature of the business engaged
in by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken on a consolidated
basis, on the date of the Closing, plus extensions and expansions thereof and
business activities incidental or related thereto.

12.   REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC.

12.1  Acceleration.

          (a)  If an Event of Default with respect to the Company or the Issuer
described in paragraph (g) or (h) of Section 11 (other than an Event of Default
described in clause (i) of paragraph (g) or described in clause (vi) of
paragraph (g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of
paragraph (g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically
become immediately due and payable.

          (b)  If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with
respect to one or more Series of Notes, the Required Holders may at any time at
their option, by notice or notices to the Issuer, declare all the Notes of the
applicable Series then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

          (c)  If any Event of Default described in paragraph (a) or (b) of
Section 11 has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes of any
Series at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any
time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Issuer, declare all
the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.

          Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1,
whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and
the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (x) all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon and (y) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of
such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall
all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without


                                      32
<PAGE>

presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived.
The Issuer acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a
Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment
by the Issuer (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the
provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Issuer in the event that the
Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is
intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such
circumstances.

12.2  Other Remedies.

          If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and
irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately
due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time
outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an
action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the
specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for an
injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid
of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

12.3  Rescission.

          At any time after any Notes of one or more Series have been declared
due and payable pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of Section 12.1, the holders of
more than 50% in principal amount of the Notes of the applicable Series then
outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer, may rescind and annul any such
declaration and its consequences if (a) the Issuer has paid all overdue interest
on the Notes of the applicable Series, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount,
if any, on any Notes of the applicable Series that are due and payable and are
unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such
overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by
applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes of the applicable
Series, at the Default Rate, (b) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than
non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such
declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (c)
no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due
pursuant hereto or to the Notes of the applicable Series.  No rescission and
annulment under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event
of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

12.4  No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, etc.

          No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any
Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof
or otherwise prejudice such holder's rights, powers or remedies.  No right,
power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder
thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to
herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or
otherwise.  Without limiting the obligations of the Company and the Issuer under
Section 15, the Company and the Issuer, jointly and severally, agree to pay to
the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to
cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or
collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees, expenses and disbursements.

13.   REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES.

13.1  Registration of Notes.

          The Issuer shall keep at its principal executive office a register for
the registration and registration of transfers of Notes.  The name and address
of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and
address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such
register.  Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in
whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner
and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Issuer shall not be affected
by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.  The Issuer shall give to any holder
of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a
complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders
of Notes.

13.2  Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

          Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the
Issuer for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender
for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or
his attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for
notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), the Issuer shall
execute and deliver, at the Issuer's expense (except as provided below), one or
more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the
surrendered Note.  Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such
holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1-A-1 or 1-
A-2, as the case may be.  Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest
from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or
dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid
thereon.  The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp
tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes.
Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $100,000, provided
that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its
entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than
$100,000.  Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name
(or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation
set forth in Section 6.2.

13.3  Replacement of Notes.

          Upon receipt by the Issuer of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it
of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note
(which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from
such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction
or mutilation), and

          (a)  in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or
is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a
minimum net worth of at least $100,000,000, such Person's own unsecured
agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

          (b)  in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation
thereof,


                                      34
<PAGE>

the Issuer at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new
Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been
paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid
thereon.

14.   PAYMENTS ON NOTES.

14.1  Place of Payment.

          Subject to Section 14.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if
any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in Denver,
Colorado at the principal office of the Issuer in such jurisdiction.  The Issuer
may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment
of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal
office of the Issuer in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or
trust company in such jurisdiction.

14.2  Home Office Payment.

          So long as you or your nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and
notwithstanding anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the
contrary, the Issuer will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal,
Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by the method and at the address
specified for such purpose below your name in Schedule A, or by such other
method or at such other address as you shall have from time to time specified to
the Issuer in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of
such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written
request of the Issuer made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after
payment or prepayment in full of any Note, you shall surrender such Note for
cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Issuer at its
principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated
by the Issuer pursuant to Section 14.1.  Prior to any sale or other disposition
of any Note held by you or your nominee you will, at your election, either
endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which
interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Issuer in exchange
for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 13.2.  The Issuer will afford the
benefits of this Section 14.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct
or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by you under this Agreement and
that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as you have made in this
Section 14.2.

15.   EXPENSES, ETC.

15.1  Transaction Expenses.

          Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated,
the Company and the Issuer, jointly and severally, agree to pay all costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees of a special counsel and, if
reasonably required, local or other counsel) incurred by you, each Additional
Purchaser and each Other Purchaser or holder of a Note in connection with such
transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or
in respect of this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes (whether or

insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with
any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the
Notes. The Company and the Issuer, jointly and severally, agree to pay, and will
save you and each other holder of a Note harmless from, all claims in respect of
any fees, costs or expenses if any, of brokers and finders (other than those
retained by you).

15.2  Survival.

          The obligations of the Company and the Issuer under this Section 15
will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement, any Supplement or the Notes, and the
termination of this Agreement or any Supplement.

16.   SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

          All representations and warranties contained herein or in any
Supplement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, such
Supplement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by you or any Additional
Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of
any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless
of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of you or any Additional
Purchaser or any other holder of a Note.  All statements contained in any
certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company or the
Issuer pursuant to this Agreement or any Supplement shall be deemed
representations and warranties of the Company and the Issuer under this
Agreement.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement (including every
Supplement) and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between
you, the Other Purchasers, the Additional Purchasers, the Company and the Issuer
and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject
matter hereof.

17.   AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

17.1  Requirements.

          (a)  Requirements. This Agreement, any Supplement hereto, the
Subsidiary Guaranty, if any, and the Notes of any Series may be amended, and the
observance of any term hereof or of any Supplement or of the Notes of any Series
may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the
written consent of the Company, the Issuer and the Required Holders of each
Series as to which such amendment or waiver is applicable, except that (a) no
amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 21
hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to you
unless consented to by you in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver may,
without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding
affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to
acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or
payment

                                      36
<PAGE>

of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of
computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount on, the Notes of such
Series, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the
holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, or
(iii) amend any of Sections 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 17, 20 or 22.

          (b)  Supplements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Company and the Issuer may enter into any Supplement providing for
the issuance of one or more Series of Additional Notes pursuant to and in
compliance with Sections 2.2 and 4.12 hereof without obtaining the consent of
any holder of any Notes of any other Series.

17.2  Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

          (a)  Solicitation. The Company or the Issuer will provide each holder
of Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient
information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to
enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to
any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions
hereof or of the Notes. The Company or the Issuer will deliver executed or true
and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 17 to each holder of outstanding Notes of the
applicable Series promptly following the date on which it is executed and
delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of
Notes of the applicable Series.

          (b)  Payment. Neither the Company nor the Issuer will directly or
indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of
supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to
any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering
into by any holder of Notes or any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and
provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is
concurrently granted, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes of the
applicable Series then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such
waiver or amendment.

17.3  Binding Effect, etc.

          Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17
applies equally to all holders of Notes of the applicable Series and is binding
upon them and upon each future holder of any such Note of that Series and upon
the Company and the Issuer without regard to whether such Note has been marked
to indicate such amendment or waiver.  No such amendment or waiver will extend
to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default
not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon.  No
course of dealing between the Company, the Issuer and the holder of any Note nor
any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as
a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note.  As used herein, the term
"this Agreement" and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from
time to time be amended or supplemented.

17.4  Notes held by Issuer, etc.

          Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the
requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding
approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this
Agreement or the Notes, or have


                                      37
<PAGE>

directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken
upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned
by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be deemed not to
be outstanding.

18.  NOTICES.

confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service

themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information
previously or hereafter furnished to you, may be reproduced by you by any
photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or other
similar process and you may destroy any original document so reproduced.  Each
of the Company and the Issuer agrees and stipulates that, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in
evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding
(whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such
reproduction was made by you in the regular course of business) and any
enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall
likewise be admissible in evidence.  This Section 19 shall not prohibit the
Company, the Issuer or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such
reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from
introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

21.  SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.

          You shall have the right to substitute any one of your Affiliates as
the purchaser of the Notes that you have agreed to purchase hereunder, by
written notice to the Issuer, which notice shall be signed by both you and such
Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate's agreement to be bound by this
Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy
with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6.  Upon receipt
of such notice, wherever the word "you" is used in this Agreement (other than in
this Section 21), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu
of you.  In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser
hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to you all of the Notes then
held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Issuer of notice of such transfer,
wherever the word "you" is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section
21), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall
refer to you, and you shall have all the rights of an original holder of the
Notes under this Agreement.

22.  GUARANTY.

          In order to induce the Purchasers and any Additional Purchasers to
enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Notes hereunder, the Company
agrees as follows:

22.1  Guaranty.

          In consideration of the Purchasers and any Additional Purchasers
agreeing to enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Notes hereunder, the
Company hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guaranties, as primary obligor
and not merely as a surety, the due and punctual payment when due (whether by
required prepayment, declaration, demand or otherwise) (including amounts that
would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section
362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. (S)362(a)) of all obligations of the
Issuer under this Agreement and the Notes with respect to the payment of all
principal outstanding under the Notes, all accrued interest thereon, any Make-
Whole Amount that may become due and payable in relation to any Note, all
amounts payable by the Issuer with respect to expense reimbursement or
indemnification hereunder, and all other amounts that may become due and payable
by the Issuer hereunder (including, without limitation, interest which, but for
the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to the Issuer, would accrue
on such obligations at the rate specified in this Agreement and the Notes).  All
such obligations of the Issuer are referred to herein as the "Guaranteed
Obligations."  For purposes of this Section 22, the obligations of the Company
under this Section 22 are referred to as this "Guaranty."

22.2  Terms of Guaranty.

          (a)   The Company agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be
extended or renewed without notice or further assent from it, and that it will
remain bound upon this Guaranty notwithstanding any extension, renewal or other
alteration of any such Guaranteed Obligation.

          (b)   The Company waives presentation of, demand of, payment from and
protest of any Guaranteed Obligation and also waives notice of protest for
nonpayment. The

                                      40
<PAGE>

obligations of the Company under this Guaranty shall not be affected by, and the
Company hereby waives its rights (to the extent permitted by law) in connection
with:
                (i)     the failure of any holder of the Notes to assert any
          claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer
          under the provisions of this Agreement or otherwise;

                (ii)    any extension or renewal of any provision thereof;

                (iii)   any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any
          of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or any instrument
          executed pursuant hereto;

                (iv)    the failure of any holder of the Notes to exercise any
          right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed
          Obligations;

                (v)     any holder of the Notes taking and holding security or
          collateral for the payment of this Guaranty or requesting and
          accepting any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, and
          exchanging, enforcing, waiving and releasing any such security or
          collateral;

                (vi)    any holder of the Notes applying any such security or
          collateral and directing the order or manner of sale thereof as such
          Person in its discretion may determine; or

                (vii)   any holder of the Notes settling, releasing,
          compromising, collecting or otherwise liquidating the Guaranteed
          Obligations and any security or collateral therefor in any manner
          determined by such holder of the Notes.

        (c)     The Company further agrees that this Guaranty constitutes a
guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives any right to
require that any resort be had by any holder of the Notes or any other Person,
to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any balance
of any deposit account or credit on the books of any holder of the Notes or any
other Person in favor of the Issuer or any other Person.

        (d)     The obligations of the Company under this Guaranty shall not be
subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason
(other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including, without
limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise,
and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or
termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations, discharge of the Issuer from the
Guaranteed Obligations in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding or otherwise.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Company
under this Guaranty shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by
the failure of any holder of the Notes to assert any claim or demand or to
enforce any remedy under this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement, by
any waiver or modification of any provision thereof, by any default, failure or
delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations,
or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing
that may or might in any manner or to any extent

                                      41
<PAGE>

vary the risk of the Company or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the
Company as a matter of law or equity.

        (e)     The Company further agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to
be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or
any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is
rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any holder of a Note upon the
bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.

        (f)     The Company further agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing and
not in limitation of any other right that any holder of the Notes may have at
law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the
Issuer to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall
become due (whether by required prepayment, declaration, demand or otherwise),
the Company will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the holder of
the Notes an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of such
Guaranteed Obligations then due together with accrued and unpaid interest, Make-
Whole Amounts, if any and all other unpaid Guaranteed Obligations of the Issuer
then due to any holder of the Notes.

        (g)     Until such time as the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in
full, the Company shall withhold the exercise of any right of subrogation,
contribution, indemnity or otherwise against the Issuer that may arise out of or
be caused by this Guaranty, all rights and/or claims against the Issuer which
may arise against the Issuer by reason of this Guaranty, any right to enforce
any remedy that any holder of the Notes now has or may hereafter have in respect
of the Guaranteed Obligations against the Issuer and any benefit of, and any
right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by any holder of the
Notes.

23.   MISCELLANEOUS.

23.1  Successors and Assigns.

        All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement
(including any Supplement) by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and
inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including,
without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or
not.

23.2  Payments Due on Non-Business Days.

        Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding,
any payment of principal of or Make-whole Amount or interest on any Note that is
due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of
the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

23.3  Severability.

        Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof, and any such prohibition

                                      42
<PAGE>

or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by
law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

23.4  Construction.

          Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express
provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained
herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an
express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other
covenant.  Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any
Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be
applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

23.5  Counterparts.

          This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one
instrument.  Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each
signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

23.6  Governing Law.

          This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and
the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York
excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would require
the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.
