                SANTA FE PACIFIC CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

                      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                     (UNAUDITED)

        (a) The consolidated financial statements should be read in
            conjunction with the Santa Fe Pacific Corporation ("SFP",
            "Registrant" or "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
            year ended December 31, 1994 ("1994 Form 10-K"), including those
            financial statements and notes thereto incorporated by reference
            from the Registrant's 1994 Annual Report to Shareholders. 

        (b) In the opinion of SFP management, the consolidated statement of
            operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994
            reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the
            results of operations.  Except as otherwise disclosed, all
            adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

        (c) The consolidated statement of operations for the three months
            ended March 31, 1995 is not necessarily indicative of the results
            of operations for the full year 1995.

        (d) Certain comparative prior year amounts in the consolidated
            financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the
            current year presentation.

        (e) On June 29, 1994, SFP and Burlington Northern Inc. ("BNI")
            entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (as
            amended, the "Merger Agreement") pursuant to which SFP is to
            merge with and into BNI, with BNI being the surviving corporation
            (the "Merger").  The Merger was approved by the stockholders of
            both SFP and BNI on February 7, 1995.  In accordance with the
            Merger Agreement, BNI and SFP conducted a joint tender offer in
            which SFP purchased 38 million shares and BNI purchased 25
            million shares of SFP common stock at a price of $20 per share,
            the payment for which shares was made on February 21, 1995 (the
            "Tender Offer"). 

            At Merger consummation, each remaining outstanding share of SFP
            common stock will be converted into at least 0.40 of a share of
            BNI common stock (the "Exchange Ratio") in a tax-free exchange.
            Between the Tender Offer and consummation of the Merger, SFP has
            the right but not the obligation to repurchase up to an
            additional 10 million shares of SFP common stock, subject to
            certain financial conditions and limitations of the Merger
            Agreement and SFP's bank loan facility ("Credit Facility").  The
            Exchange Ratio will depend on the number of SFP shares
            repurchased by SFP as well as the number of SFP employee stock
            options exercised prior to the consummation of the Merger.  The
            Merger Agreement provides for a maximum Exchange Ratio of 0.4347
            which will not be reached because, among other reasons, SFP
            employee stock options have been exercised since December 31,
            1994.  In addition, the Interstate Commerce Commission's ("ICC")

                                          4





<PAGE>





            expedited procedural schedule adopted effective March 9, 1995,
            calls for a final decision on the Merger no later than August 23,
            1995; a favorable decision followed by Merger consummation
            shortly thereafter would likely result in an Exchange Ratio
            substantially less than the maximum because SFP would have a
            shorter period of time than would have been available under the
            previous ICC schedule to exceed the appropriate quarterly tests
            under the Merger Agreement and Credit Facility and thus generate
            capacity to make repurchases.

            Through March 31, 1995, SFP has repurchased approximately 1.4
            million shares at an average cost of approximately $21.50 per
            share.  The effect of these repurchases, after adjusting for SFP
            employee stock options exercised since December 31, 1994, was to
            increase the Exchange Ratio to 0.4044 of a share of BNI common
            stock for each outstanding share of SFP common stock at March 31,
            1995.  SFP has met certain performance and financial criteria
            under the Merger Agreement and Credit Facility and, therefore, is
            allowed to repurchase additional shares up to an aggregate amount
            of approximately $22 million in the second quarter.  While SFP
            intends to continue repurchases of shares during the
            second quarter, there can be no assurances that the maximum
            repurchases allowed will be completed.

            The consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions,
            including approval by the ICC.  The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
            Railway Company ("Santa Fe Railway") and Burlington Northern
            Railroad Company have entered into agreements with Union Pacific
            Railroad Company, Southern Pacific Transportation Company and
            affiliates, and Kansas City Southern Railway Company, among
            others, whereby those carriers agreed not to oppose the ICC's
            approval of the Merger in exchange for grants of certain trackage
            rights, haulage arrangements or other such arrangements.

        (f) During the first quarter of 1995, SFP borrowed $1.0 billion under
            the Credit Facility.  Proceeds of $760 million from the borrowing
            were used by SFP to purchase 38 million shares of SFP common
            stock pursuant to the terms of the Tender Offer.  The repurchased
            shares are reflected within treasury stock in the accompanying
            consolidated balance sheet.  The remaining proceeds were used by
            SFP to repay SFP's $200 million 12.65% senior notes maturing
            1998-2000 ("Senior Notes"), plus the costs associated with the
            retirement.  These costs, totaling $40.0 million pre-tax,
            included $37.0 million for the premium attributable to the early
            retirement of the Senior Notes and $3.0 million for the write-off
            of related unamortized debt issue costs.  These costs, net of
            applicable income tax benefits of $15.7 million, have been
            presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of
            operations as an extraordinary charge.  

            During the first quarter, the Credit Facility was amended:
            (i) to reduce potential borrowings available to SFP from $1.56
            billion to $1.36 billion;  (ii) to reduce the interest rates

                                          5



<PAGE>







            applicable to borrowings under the Credit Facility by reducing
            credit spreads and expanding money market borrowing flexibility
            and; (iii) to reduce SFP's hedging requirements for interest rate
            protection to a minimum of $400 million of outstanding
            borrowings.  SFP has outstanding $200 million of fixed-rate debt
            which is considered interest rate protection under the Credit
            Facility.  Additionally, SFP has entered into seven interest rate
            swap transactions with a total notional principal amount of $200
            million.  The interest rate swaps mature from December 1996
            through December 1998 and were entered into to match maturities
            under the Credit Facility.  The interest rate swap transactions
            require payment of a fixed interest rate of approximately 7.6%,
            and the receipt of a variable interest rate based on LIBOR.  The
            fair value of the swap transactions at March 31, 1995, was an
            unrealized loss of approximately $2.9 million.

        (g) In September 1994, SFP distributed its remaining interest in
            Santa Fe Pacific Gold Corporation ("SFP Gold") to SFP
            shareholders.  SFP Gold operations for the first quarter of 1994
            are reflected as discontinued operations.  Revenues from
            discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31,
            1994, were $84.3 million.
               
        (h) At March 31, 1995, Santa Fe Railway had entered into various
            commodity swap and collar transactions with several
            counterparties covering approximately 136 million gallons of
            diesel fuel in 1995 which is anticipated to cover approximately
            45% of remaining 1995 fuel purchases.  Through swap arrangements,
            Santa Fe Railway has hedged approximately 128 million gallons at
            an average price of 48 cents per gallon.  Additionally,
            approximately 8 million gallons have been hedged through collar
            arrangements which allow the price to float between average floor
            and ceiling prices of 40 cents and 49 cents, respectively.  These
            prices do not include taxes, fuel handling costs and any
            differences which may occur from time to time between the prices
            of commodities hedged and the purchase price of Santa Fe
            Railway's diesel fuel.  The effect of the fuel hedges was to
            increase operating expense by $1.2 million and $2.9 million for
            the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 
            The fair value of Santa Fe Railway's fuel hedging transactions at
            March 31, 1995, was an unrealized loss of $0.6 million.
              
        (i) SFP is a party to a number of legal actions and claims, various
            governmental proceedings and private civil suits arising in the
            ordinary course of business, including those related to
            environmental matters and personal injury claims.  While the
            final outcome of these items cannot be predicted with certainty,
            considering among other things the meritorious legal defenses
            available, it is the opinion of SFP management that none of these
            items, when finally resolved, will have a material adverse effect
            on the annual results of operations, financial position or
            liquidity of SFP, although an adverse resolution of a number of
            these items in a single year could have a material adverse effect
            on the results of operations for that year.

                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
                        OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

        Results of Operations
        ---------------------

        Current Quarter Compared with Same Quarter of Preceding Year
        ------------------------------------------------------------

        Santa Fe Pacific Corporation ("SFP" or "Registrant") reported a net
        loss for the first quarter of $2.0 million or $0.01 per share compared
        to net income of $68.1 million or $0.36 per share last year.  The
        decrease in net income primarily relates to:  (i) a $55.8 million
        decrease in other income (expense)-net;  (ii) a $24.3 million after-
        tax extraordinary charge for early retirement of debt; (iii) $13.9
        million of income from discontinued operations in 1994; and (iv) 
        higher interest expense.  The above were partially offset by higher
        operating income.  Other income (expense)-net in 1995 included $26.3
        million of merger related costs and 1994 included pre-tax gains of
        $34.2 million related to the sale of an investment and a favorable
        litigation settlement.  Excluding these items, SFP's first quarter
        1995 net income from continuing operations was $41.4 million or $0.23
        per share compared to $34.5 million or $0.18 per share in 1994.

        Operating income at The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company
        ("Santa Fe Railway") for the quarter was $104.4 million, an increase
        of $13.7 million or 15% over the $90.7 million reported in the first
        quarter of 1994.  Operating revenues of $679.7 million, which includes
        revenue from miscellaneous transportation related items, rose 8% as
        carloadings increased 5% and average revenue per car increased 3%. 
        The quarterly operating ratio improved to 84.6% from 85.6% in 1994. 
        Freight revenues by commodity for the three months ended March 31,
        1995 and 1994 were as follows:

        Intermodal revenues increased 14% to $297.5 million, primarily the
        result of a 39% increase in direct marketing, due to growth in less-
        than-truckload business.  Carload commodities revenues of $156.8
        million were 2% higher than last year due to increased coiled steel
        and other long haul traffic in metals and higher average revenue per
        car in chemicals and plastics due to changes in mix, partially offset
        by lower average revenue per car in consumer/food products.  Bulk
        products revenues of $159.5 million increased 8% principally due to
        increased shipments of grain for export as well as higher average
        revenue per car.  Automotive revenues of $55.8 million decreased 4%
        principally reflecting lower average revenue per car due to changes in
        traffic mix.  Recent economic trends have indicated a slowdown in
        general business activity in the United States.  As a result, SFP
        currently anticipates that revenue levels for the second and third
        quarters of 1995 could approximate 1994 levels for the comparable
        periods.

<PAGE>





        Operating expenses of $575.3 million increased by $34.5 million or 6%,
        principally due to the increase in business volume.  Compensation and
        benefits expense rose $12.9 million or 6% reflecting wage increases
        and the cost associated with additional operating personnel hired to
        handle increased traffic.  Contract services increased $12.0 million
        due to higher volumes and expanded use of locomotive maintenance
        contractors.  Fuel expense increased $4.9 million or 8% reflecting
        increases in volumes.

        SFP's equity investment in Santa Fe Pacific Pipeline Partners, L.P.
        produced income of $6.7 million, up $0.4 million or 6% from last year,
        due to increased volume.  Other income-net, adjusted to exclude the 
        $26.3 million of merger related costs in 1995 and the two favorable
        special items in 1994, increased $4.7 million, principally due to
        higher income from real estate activities.  Interest expense increased
        $10.7 million, principally reflecting borrowings under SFP's bank loan
        facility ("Credit Facility") .

        Financial Condition and Other Matters 
        -------------------------------------

        Year-to-Date Cash Flow
        ----------------------
        For the three months ended March 31, 1995, net cash used for operating
        activities from continuing operations totaled $36.0 million which
        principally reflects cash used for working capital requirements and
        restructuring payments (which principally include employee severance,
        relocation costs and other labor payments), partially offset by net
        income before depreciation and deferred taxes.  Total capital
        expenditures for the first three months of 1995, which include noncash
        transactions, were $100.0 million.  Noncash transactions of $17.6
        million primarily represent reimbursable projects.  Capital spending
        principally related to improvements to track structure and other road
        properties, new facilities, and equipment, and was primarily funded
        through available cash balances.  Additional cash of $1.0 billion was
        provided by borrowings under SFP's Credit Facility, $760 million of
        which was used to repurchase 38 million shares of SFP common stock and
        approximately $240 million was used to repay SFP's 12.65% $200 million
        Senior Notes ("Senior Notes") and related costs, as discussed in Note
        (f) to the consolidated financial statements.  SFP's ratio of total
        debt to capital increased to 80% at March 31, 1995 compared to 50% at
        December 31, 1994, principally reflecting reductions in equity and
        increases in debt due to share repurchases.

        Rail Restructuring
        ------------------
        Restructuring costs paid were $15.9 million for the first three months
        of 1995, with annual payments still estimated to be approximately $50
        million in 1995.

        Labor Negotiations/Service Interruption
        ---------------------------------------

        Santa Fe Railway is actively involved in industrywide labor contract
        negotiations which began in late 1994.  Wages, health and welfare
        benefits, work rules and other issues are being negotiated for all
        rail union employees, which represent over 85% of Santa Fe Railway's
        work force.  These negotiations have traditionally taken place over a
        number of months and have previously not resulted in any extended work
        stoppages.

        Santa Fe Railway is party to service interruption insurance agreements
        under which Santa Fe Railway would be required to pay premiums of up
        to a maximum of approximately $38 million in the event of work
        stoppages on other railroads.  Santa Fe Railway is also entitled to
        receive payments under certain conditions if a work stoppage occurs on
        its property.

        Merger Activities
        -----------------

        On June 29, 1994, SFP and Burlington Northern Inc. ("BNI") entered
        into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the
        "Merger Agreement") pursuant to which SFP is to merge with and into
        BNI, with BNI being the surviving corporation (the "Merger").  The
        Merger was approved by the stockholders of both SFP and BNI on
        February 7, 1995.  In accordance with the Merger Agreement, BNI and
        SFP conducted a joint tender offer in which SFP purchased 38 million
        shares and BNI purchased 25 million shares of SFP common stock at a
        price of $20 per share, the payment for which shares was made on
        February 21, 1995 (the "Tender Offer"). 

        At Merger consummation, each remaining outstanding share of SFP common
        stock will be converted into at least 0.40 of a share of BNI common
        stock (the "Exchange Ratio") in a tax-free exchange. Between the
        Tender Offer and consummation of the Merger, SFP has the right but not
        the obligation to repurchase up to an additional 10 million shares of
        SFP common stock, subject to certain financial conditions and
        limitations of the Merger Agreement and SFP's Credit Facility.  The
        Exchange Ratio will depend on the number of SFP shares repurchased by
        SFP as well as the number of SFP employee stock options exercised
        prior to the consummation of the Merger.  The Merger Agreement
        provides for a maximum Exchange Ratio of 0.4347 which will not be
        reached because, among other reasons, SFP employee stock options have
        been exercised since December 31, 1994.  In addition, the Interstate
        Commerce Commission's ("ICC") expedited procedural schedule adopted
        effective March 9, 1995, calls for a final decision on the Merger no
        later than August 23, 1995; a favorable decision followed by Merger
        consummation shortly thereafter would likely result in an Exchange
        Ratio substantially less than the maximum because SFP would have a
        shorter period of time than would have been available under the
        previous ICC schedule to exceed the appropriate quarterly tests under
        the Merger Agreement and Credit Facility and thus generate capacity to
        make repurchases.


                                          10



<PAGE>





        Through March 31, 1995, SFP has repurchased approximately 1.4 million
        shares at an average cost of approximately $21.50 per share.  The
        effect of these repurchases, after adjusting for SFP employee stock
        options exercised since December 31, 1994, was to increase the
        Exchange Ratio to 0.4044 of a share of BNI common stock for each
        outstanding share of SFP common stock at March 31, 1995.  SFP has met
        certain performance and financial criteria under the Merger Agreement
        and Credit Facility and, therefore, is allowed to repurchase
        additional shares up to an aggregate amount of approximately $22
        million in the second quarter.  While SFP intends to continue
        repurchases of shares during the second quarter, there can be no
        assurances that the maximum repurchases allowed will be completed.

        The consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions,
        including approval by the ICC.  Santa Fe Railway and Burlington
        Northern Railroad Company ("BN") have entered into agreements with
        Union Pacific Railroad Company, Southern Pacific Transportation
        Company and affiliates, and Kansas City Southern Railway Company,
        among others, whereby those carriers agreed not to oppose the ICC's
        approval of the Merger in exchange for grants of certain trackage
        rights, haulage arrangements or other such arrangements.

                              --------------------------

        Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
        --------------------------

        Reference is made to the discussion of the railroad merger and control
        application filed by BNI, BN, SFP, and Santa Fe Railway ("Applicants")
        with the ICC, Finance Docket No. 32549, BURLINGTON NORTHERN INC. AND
        BURLINGTON NORTHER RAILROAD COMPANY--CONTROL AND MERGER--SANTA FE
        PACIFIC CORPORATION AND THE ATCHISON, TOPEKA AND SANTA FE RAILWAY
        COMPANY, under Part I, Item 3 (Legal Proceedings) in  Registrant's
        Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994.  BN
        and Santa Fe Railway have reached agreements with other western
        carriers, including Union Pacific Railroad Company, Kansas City
        Southern Railway Company, and Southern Pacific Transportation Company
        and affiliates, which generally involve the granting or exchange of
        trackage rights or haulage services, or both.  As a result of the
        agreements, which are contingent upon approval of the merger and
        control application by the ICC, the other carriers agreed not to
        oppose the merger nor to seek any conditions in the case before the
        ICC.  Various parties, including governmental agencies, other
        carriers, and shipper interests, have filed comments on the Merger or
        requests for conditions with respect to potential competitive
        concerns.  Applicants will reply on June 9, 1995.

        Reference is made to the discussion of IN RE SANTA FE PACIFIC
        CORPORATION SHAREHOLDER LITIGATION, C.A. No. 13587 (Delaware Chancery
        Court), under Part I, Item 3 (Legal Proceedings) in Registrant's
        Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994.  The
        trial in this matter has been rescheduled to begin on July 12, 1995.

        SFP and its subsidiaries and affiliates are also a party to a number
        of other legal actions and claims, various governmental proceedings
        and private civil suits arising in the ordinary course of business,
        including those related to environmental matters and personal injury
        claims.  While the final outcome of these other legal actions cannot
        be predicted with certainty, considering among other things the
        meritorious legal defenses available, it is the opinion of SFP
        management that none of these items, when finally resolved, will have
        a material adverse effect on the annual results of operations,
        financial position or liquidity of SFP, although an adverse resolution
        of a number of these items in a single year could have a material
        adverse effect on the results of operations for that year.

        Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

             record date for determining eligibility of the stockholders to
             vote at the special meeting of stockholders, each such share
             being entitled to one vote:

                  adoption of the Agreement, constituting a majority

        At the April 25, 1995, annual meeting of stockholders, the
        Registrant's stockholders voted on one matter, the election of four
        directors; 152,533,202 shares of common stock were outstanding and
        entitled to vote as of the March 6, 1995, record date.

               resulting from the operation of either of clauses (i) or
               (ii) above for any fiscal quarter shall be given effect












               through adjustments to the next facility fee payment to be

               conversion, and from and after such conversion, such Loans
               shall constitute Tranche C Revolving Credit Loans which the
               Borrower may prepay and reborrow as such in accordance with

               extent, if any, that after giving effect to such reduction
               the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Tranche C
               Revolving Credit Loans and Tranche C Money Market Loans
               would exceed the Tranche C Revolving Credit Commitments."

               Commitments have been terminated, and thereafter any such
               prepayment shall be applied to the prepayment of Tranche C
               Revolving Credit Loans and the simultaneous reduction of the
               Tranche C Revolving Credit Commitments in the amount of such
               prepayment"

                    (k)  Subsection 9.7 of the Credit Agreement is hereby

               Credit Loans of Term Loans, the proceeds of which were used
               in accordance with paragraph (a) of this subsection 9.7.  In
               the event of any repayment and reborrowing of Tranche C
               Revolving Credit Loans, the proceeds of such Tranche C
               Revolving Credit Loans will be used for working capital and

               Money Market Loans, Tranche B Money Market Loans and Tranche

               replaces such Interest Rate Protection) in effect during the

                             [OPINION OF MAYER, BROWN & PLATT]

                                                                     , 1995

          To the Agents and Lenders Referred to Below 
          c/o Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, 
            as Administrative Agent
          60 Wall Street
          New York, New York  10260-0060

          Ladies and Gentlemen:

                    We have acted as special counsel for Santa Fe Pacific
          Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "BORROWER"), in
          connection with the execution and delivery of the Second
          Amendment, dated as of March 31, 1995 (the "SECOND AMENDMENT"),
          to the Credit Agreement, dated as of January 27, 1995 (as
          previously amended, the "CREDIT AGREEMENT"), among (i) the
          Borrower, (ii) the lenders named therein (the "LENDERS"), (iii)
          J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., as Arranger, (iv) Chase Securities,
          Inc., Chemical Securities Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Union
          Bank of Switzerland, as Co-Arrangers, (v) Morgan Guaranty Trust
          Company of New York, The Chase Manhattan Bank (National
          Association), Chemical Bank, Pearl Street L.P. and Union Bank of
          Switzerland, as Arranging Agents, and (vi) Morgan Guaranty Trust
          Company of New York, as Administrative Agent and as Documentation
          Agent (the Arranger, the Co-Arrangers, the Arranging Agents, the
          Administrative Agent and the Documentation Agent are collectively
          referred to herein as the "AGENTS").

                    We have examined originals or copies, certified or
          otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the Second Amendment
          and such documents, corporate records, certificates of public
          officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary for
          purposes of this opinion.  We have assumed, without independent
          investigation, the genuineness of all signatures of all parties
          (other than those on behalf of the Borrower), the legal capacity
          of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents
          submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authorized
          originals of all documents submitted to us as copies.  As to
          facts material to this opinion, we have relied without
          independent investigation upon the written statements and
          representations of the Borrower and its officers and
          representatives and public officials.

                     Upon the basis of the foregoing, and subject to the
          qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

               1.   The Borrower is a corporation validly existing and in
               good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.  The
               Borrower has all corporate powers to carry on its business
               as now conducted.

                    2.   The execution, delivery and performance by the
               Borrower of the Second Amendment is within the Borrower's
               corporate powers and has been duly authorized by all
               necessary corporate action on the part of the Borrower.

                    3.   The execution, delivery and performance by the
               Borrower of the Second Amendment does not require any action
               by or in respect of, or filing with, any governmental body,
               agency or official of the United States of America or the
               States of New York, Illinois or Delaware or contravene, or
               constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law
               or regulation of the United States of America or the States
               of New York or Illinois, the General Corporation Law of the
               State of Delaware or of the certificate of incorporation or
               by-laws of the Borrower or, to the best of our knowledge, of
               any material agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree
               or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any of its
               Subsidiaries or, to the best of our knowledge, result in the
               creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the
               Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, other than the Lien
               created pursuant to the Stock Pledge Agreement.

                    4.   The Second Amendment has been duly executed by the
               Borrower and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of
               the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance
               with its terms.

                    Our opinions are subject to the following 
               qualifications:

                    B.  We express no opinion as to the effect of the law
               of any jurisdiction other than the States of New York and
               Illinois wherein any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office
               may be located, or wherein enforcement of the Credit
               Agreement may be sought, which limits the rates of interest
               legally chargeable or collectible.

                    C.  Our opinions are subject to the effect of any
               applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
               reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting
               creditors' rights generally and to the effect of general
               principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a












               proceeding in equity or at law), including, without
               limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good
               faith and fair dealing.

                    D.  We express no opinion with respect to
               indemnification or contribution obligations which contravene
               public policy.

               THIS FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, dated as of March 31,
          1995, is between SANTA FE PACIFIC CORPORATION, a Delaware
          corporation (herein called the "Company"), and THE FIRST NATIONAL
          BANK OF CHICAGO, a national banking association, as trustee
          (herein called the "Trustee").

                                PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

               The Company and the Trustee have entered into a Restated
          Indenture (herein called the "Indenture"), dated as of
          November 1, 1994.  Capitalized terms used herein, not otherwise
          defined herein, shall have the meanings given them in the
          Indenture.

               Section 901(6) of the Indenture expressly provides that the
          Company and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture,
          without the consent of any Holders of Securities, in order to
          secure the Securities pursuant to Section 1008.  In accordance
          with the terms of Section 901 of the Indenture, the Company has,
          by Board Resolution, authorized this First Supplemental
          Indenture.  The Trustee has determined that this First
          Supplemental Indenture is in form satisfactory to it.  

               All things necessary to make this First Supplemental
          Indenture a valid agreement of the Company and the Trustee and a
          valid amendment of and supplement to the Indenture have been
          done.

               NOW, THEREFORE, THIS FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
          WITNESSETH:

               For and in consideration of the premises, it is mutually
          covenanted and agreed, for the equal and proportionate benefit of
          all Holders of the Securities issued under the Indenture, whether
          issued before or after the date of this First Supplemental
          Indenture, as follows:

               1.  Article One, Section 101, will be modified by the
          addition of the following definitions:

               "Stock Pledge Agreement" means the Amended and Restated
          Stock Pledge Agreement, dated as of March 31, 1995, among the
          Company, Harris Trust and Savings Bank, as Trustee, and Morgan
          Guaranty Trust Company of New York, a copy of which is attached
          hereto as Schedule III to Exhibit I, as the same may be amended,
          supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

               "Credit Agreement Obligations" shall have the meaning
          ascribed thereto in the Trust Agreement.

               "Secured Swap Obligations" shall have the meaning ascribed
          thereto in the Trust Agreement.

          <PAGE>













               "Trust Agreement" means the Trust Agreement, dated as of
          March 31, 1995, between the Company and Harris Trust and Savings
          Bank, as Trustee, a copy of which is attached hereto as
          Exhibit I, as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise
          modified from time to time.

               2.  Article Fifteen, entitled "Security," will be added to
          the Indenture and will consist of the following:

               In accordance with Section 1008, all Securities are secured
               equally and ratably with the Credit Agreement Obligations
               and the Secured Swap Obligations pursuant to, and subject to
               the terms and conditions of, the Stock Pledge Agreement and
               the Trust Agreement.  The security interest created under
               the Stock Pledge Agreement shall be terminated or released
               with respect to some or all of the collateral granted under
               the Stock Pledge Agreement upon the occurrence of certain
               events set forth in Section 15 of the Stock Pledge
               Agreement, in each case without any action by the Trustee. 
               The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of the
               termination of such security interest or the release of any
               such collateral.

               3.  Exhibit I hereto shall be added to the Indenture as
          Exhibit I thereto.  

               This instrument may be executed in any number of counter-
          parts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an
          original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but
          one and the same instrument.

               IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Trustee have caused
          this First Supplemental Indenture to be duly executed by their
          respective officers thereunto duly authorized and the seal of the
          Company and the Trustee duly attested to be hereunto affixed all
          as of the day and year first above written.

                    TRUST AGREEMENT, dated as of March 31, 1995, between
          SANTA FE PACIFIC CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the
          "Company"), and HARRIS TRUST AND SAVINGS BANK, an Illinois
          banking corporation, as trustee (the "Trustee"). 



                                W I T N E S S E T H :
                                _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
                              

                    WHEREAS, in order to induce the lenders parties thereto
          to enter into the Credit Agreement, the Company secured the
          payment of the loans and all other amounts from time to time
          owing by the Company under the Credit Agreement; and

                    WHEREAS, in order to comply with certain covenants in
          the Indenture, the Company desires to secure the payment of all
          Public Debt Obligations equally and ratably with the Credit
          Agreement Obligations and the Secured Swap Obligations, to the
          extent that and so long as the Credit Agreement Obligations or
          the Secured Swap Obligations are secured.


                                DECLARATION OF TRUST:

                    NOW, THEREFORE, in order to secure the payment of the
          Secured Obligations and in consideration of the premises and the
          mutual agreements set forth herein, the Trustee does hereby
          declare that it holds and will hold as trustee in trust under
          this Trust Agreement all of its right, title and interest in, to
          and under the Stock Pledge Agreement and the collateral granted
          to the Trustee thereunder whether now existing or hereafter
          arising (and the Company does hereby consent thereto).

                    TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Security Documents and the
          entire Shared Collateral (the right, title and interest of the
          Trustee in the Security Documents and the Shared Collateral being
          hereinafter referred to as the "Trust Estate") unto the Trustee
          and its successors in trust under this Trust Agreement and its
          assigns and assigns forever.

                    IN TRUST NEVERTHELESS, under and subject to the
          conditions herein set forth and for the benefit of the Secured
          Parties, and for the enforcement of the payment of all Secured
          Obligations, and as security for the performance of and
          compliance with the covenants and conditions of this Trust
          Agreement, each of the Secured Instruments and each of the
          Security Documents.

                    PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that these presents are upon the
          condition that if the Company, its successors or assigns, shall
          satisfy the conditions set forth in subsection 6.10, then this












          Trust Agreement, and the estates and rights hereby assigned,
          shall cease, determine and be void; otherwise they shall remain
          and be in full force and effect.

                    IT IS HEREBY FURTHER COVENANTED AND DECLARED, that the
          Trust Estate is to be held and applied by the Trustee, subject to
          the further covenants, conditions and trusts hereinafter set
          forth.

                                     DEFINITIONS

                    (a)  The capitalized terms used herein which are
          defined in, or by reference in, Schedule I hereto shall have the
          meanings specified therein.

                    (b)  The words "hereof", "herein" and "hereunder" and
          words of similar import when used in this Trust Agreement shall
          refer to this Trust Agreement as a whole and not to any
          particular provision of this Trust Agreement, and section and
          subsection references are to this Trust Agreement unless
          otherwise specified.


                                     SECTION 2.
                       ACCELERATION OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS

                    2.1  Notices of Acceleration.  (a) Upon receipt by the
          Trustee of a Notice of Acceleration, the Trustee shall
          immediately notify the Company, the Administrative Agent and the
          Public Debt Trustee of the receipt and contents thereof.  So long
          as such Notice of Acceleration is in effect, the Trustee shall
          exercise the rights and remedies provided in this Trust Agreement
          and in the Security Documents subject to the direction of the
          Required Secured Parties as provided herein.  The Trustee is not
          empowered to exercise any remedy hereunder or thereunder unless a
          Notice of Acceleration is in effect.

                    (b)  A Notice of Acceleration delivered by the
          Administrative Agent or the Public Debt Trustee shall become
          effective upon receipt thereof by the Trustee.  A Notice of
          Acceleration, once effective, shall remain in effect unless and
          until it is cancelled as provided in subsection 2.1(c).

                    (c)  The Administrative Agent or the Public Debt
          Trustee giving a Notice of Acceleration shall be entitled to
          cancel it by delivering a written notice of cancellation to the
          Trustee (i) before the Trustee takes any action to exercise any
          remedy with respect to the Shared Collateral or (ii) thereafter,
          if the Trustee believes that all actions it has taken to exercise












          any remedy or remedies with respect to the Shared Collateral can
          be reversed without undue difficulty; provided that no Notice of
          Acceleration shall be cancelled more than 30 days after it is
          received by the Trustee.  The Trustee shall immediately notify
          the Company as to the receipt and contents of any such notice of
          cancellation and shall promptly notify the Company, the
          Administrative Agent and the Public Debt Trustee as to the
          cancellation of any Notice of Acceleration.

                    2.2  General Authority of the Trustee over the Shared
          Collateral.  The Company hereby irrevocably constitutes and
          appoints the Trustee and any officer or agent thereof, with full
          power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact
          with full power and authority in the name of the Company or in
          its own name, from time to time in the Trustee's discretion, so
          long as any Notice of Acceleration is in effect, to take any and
          all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and
          instruments which may be

          <PAGE>
                                                                        3


          necessary or desirable to carry out the terms of this Trust
          Agreement and the Security Documents and accomplish the purposes
          hereof and thereof and, without limiting the generality of the
          foregoing, the Company hereby acknowledges that the Trustee shall
          have all powers and remedies set forth in the Security Documents. 
          Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Notice of
          Acceleration is in effect, the Trustee shall take such actions
          and exercise such remedies as are permitted by the Stock Pledge
          Agreement in accordance with the instructions of the
          Administrative Agent.

                    2.3  Right to Initiate Judicial Proceedings.  If a
          Notice of Acceleration is in effect, the Trustee, subject to the
          provisions of subsection 2.5(b), (i) shall have the right and
          power to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it
          may deem appropriate to protect and enforce the rights vested in
          it by this Trust Agreement and each Security Document and (ii)
          may proceed by suit or suits at law or in equity to enforce such
          rights and to foreclose upon the Shared Collateral and to sell
          all or, from time to time, any of the Shared Collateral under the
          judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

                    2.4  Exercise of Powers; Instructions of Required
          Secured Parties.  (a)  All of the powers, remedies and rights of
          the Trustee as set forth in this Trust Agreement may be exercised
          by the Trustee in respect of any Security Document as though set
          forth in full therein and all of the powers, remedies and rights
          of the Trustee, the Administrative Agent and the Public Debt
          Trustee as set forth in any Security Document may be exercised
          from time to time as herein and therein provided.













                    (b)  While a Notice of Acceleration is in effect, the
          Required Secured Parties shall have the right, by one or more
          instruments in writing executed and delivered to the Trustee, to
          direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
          for any right or remedy available to the Trustee, or of
          exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, or for
          the appointment of a receiver, or to direct the taking or the
          refraining from taking of any action authorized by this Trust
          Agreement or any Security Document; provided that a. such
          direction shall not conflict with any provision of law or of this
          Trust Agreement or of any Security Document and b. the Trustee
          shall be adequately secured and indemnified as provided in
          subsection 5.4(d).  Nothing in this subsection 2.4(b) shall
          impair the right of the Trustee in its discretion to take any
          action which it deems proper and which is not inconsistent with
          such direction by the Required Secured Parties.  In the absence
          of such direction, the Trustee shall have no duty to take or
          refrain from taking any action unless explicitly required herein.

                    (c)  If, within 45 days after the Trustee receives a
          Notice of Acceleration which has not been cancelled, the Trustee
          shall not have received written directions from the Required
          Secured Parties pursuant to subsection 2.4(b) for the exercise of
          rights or remedies by the Trustee, the Trustee shall, until the
          Trustee receives written directions from the Required Secured
          Parties, follow written directions from the Administrative Agent
          and/or the Public Debt Trustee acting on behalf of holders of
          more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Secured
          Obligations then outstanding under the Secured Instrument or
          Instruments in respect of which such Notice of Acceleration was
          given.

                    2.5  Remedies Not Exclusive.  (a)  No remedy conferred
          upon or reserved to the Trustee herein or in the Security
          Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or
          remedies, but every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be
          in addition to every other remedy conferred herein or in any
          Security Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in
          equity or by statute.

                    (b)  No delay or omission by the Trustee to exercise
          any right, remedy or power hereunder or under any Security
          Document shall impair any such right, remedy or power or shall be
          construed to be a waiver thereof, and every right, power and
          remedy given by this Trust Agreement or any Security Document to
          the Trustee may be exercised from time to time and as often as
          may be deemed expedient by the Trustee.

                    (c)  If the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any
          right, remedy or power under this Trust Agreement or any Security












          Document and the proceeding for the enforcement thereof shall
          have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have
          been determined adversely to the Trustee, then the Company, the
          Trustee and the Secured Parties shall, subject to any
          determination in such proceeding, severally and respectively be
          restored to their former positions and rights hereunder or
          thereunder with respect to the Trust Estate and in all other
          respects, and thereafter all rights, remedies and powers of the
          Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been
          taken.

                    (d)  All rights of action and of asserting claims upon
          or under this Trust Agreement and the Security Documents may be
          enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any Secured
          Instrument or instrument evidencing any Secured Obligation or the
          production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative
          thereto, and any suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee
          shall be, subject to subsections 5.5(c) and 5.10(b)(ii), brought
          in its name as Trustee and any recovery of judgment shall be held
          as part of the Trust Estate.

                    2.6  Waiver and Estoppel.  (a)  The Company agrees, to
          the extent it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time in
          any manner whatsoever claim, or take the benefit or advantage of,
          any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium,
          turnover or redemption law, or any law permitting it to direct
          the order in which the Shared Collateral shall be sold, now or at
          any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or
          otherwise affect the performance or enforcement of this Trust
          Agreement or any Security Document and hereby waives all benefit
          or advantage of all such laws and covenants that it will not
          hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the
          Trustee in this Trust Agreement or any Security Document but will
          suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no
          such law were in force; provided that nothing contained in this
          subsection 2.6(a) shall be construed as a waiver of any rights of
          the Company under any applicable federal bankruptcy law.

                    (b)  The Company, to the extent it may lawfully do so,
          on behalf of itself and all who may claim through or under it,
          including without limitation any and all subsequent creditors,
          vendees, assignees and lienors, waives and releases all rights to
          demand or to have any marshalling of the Shared Collateral upon
          any sale, whether made under any power of sale granted herein or
          in any Security Document or pursuant to judicial proceedings or
          upon

          <PAGE>
                                                                         5


          any foreclosure or any enforcement of this Trust Agreement or any
          Security Document and consents and agrees that all the Shared













          Collateral may at any such sale be offered and sold as an
          entirety.

                    (c)  The Company waives, to the extent permitted by
          applicable law, presentment, demand, protest and any notice of
          any kind (except notices explicitly required hereunder or under
          any Security Document) in connection with this Trust Agreement
          and the Security Documents and any action taken by the Trustee
          with respect to the Shared Collateral.

                    2.7  Limitation on Trustee's Duty in Respect of Shared
          Collateral.  Beyond its duties as to the custody thereof
          expressly provided herein or in any Security Document and to
          account to the Secured Parties and the Company for moneys and
          other property received by it hereunder or under any Security
          Document, the Trustee shall not have any duty to the Company or

          possession or control or in the possession or control of any of
          its agents or nominees, or any income thereon or as to the
          preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights
          pertaining thereto.

                    2.8  Limitation by Law.  All rights, remedies and
          powers provided herein may be exercised only to the extent that
          the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of
          law, and all the provisions hereof are intended to be subject to
          all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be
          controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that
          they will not render this Trust Agreement invalid, unenforceable
          in whole or in part or not entitled to be recorded, registered or
          filed under the provisions of any applicable law.

          Instrument or other instrument evidencing or agreement governing
          a Secured Obligation or to institute suit for the enforcement of
          such payment on or after such due date, and the obligation of the
          Company to pay such Secured Obligation when due, shall not be
          impaired or affected without the consent of such Secured Party
          given in the manner prescribed by the Secured Instrument under

          Shared Collateral, whether in connection with the exercise of the
          remedies provided in this Trust Agreement or any Security
          Document or otherwise, while a Notice of Acceleration is in
          effect shall be deposited in the Collateral Account and held by
          the Trustee as part of the Trust Estate and applied in accordance
          with the terms of this Trust Agreement.  Upon the cancellation of
          any Notice of Acceleration pursuant to subsection 2.1(c), the
          Trustee shall (subject to the first sentence of subsection
          3.4(a)) cause all funds on deposit in the Collateral Account to
          be paid over to the Company.

                    3.2  Control of Collateral Account.  All right, title
          and interest in and to the Collateral Account shall vest in the
          Trustee, and funds on deposit in the Collateral Account shall

          shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the
          Trustee.

                    3.3  Investment of Funds Deposited in Collateral
          Account.  The Trustee shall, at the direction of the Required
          Secured Parties, invest and reinvest moneys on deposit in the
          Collateral Account at any time in Cash Equivalents.  All such
          investments and the interest and income received thereon and the
          net proceeds realized on the sale or redemption thereof shall be
          held in the Collateral Account as part of the Trust Estate.  The
          Trustee shall not be responsible for any diminution in funds
          resulting from such investments.

          have the right (pursuant to subsection 4.7) at any time to apply
          moneys held by it in the Collateral Account to the payment of due
          and unpaid Trustee Fees.  All remaining moneys held by the
          Trustee in the Collateral Account or received by the Trustee
          while a Notice of Acceleration is in effect shall, to the extent
          available for distribution (it being understood that the Trustee
          may liquidate investments prior to maturity in order to make a
          distribution pursuant to this subsection 3.4), be distributed
          (subject to the provisions of subsection 3.5) by the Trustee on
          each Distribution Date in the following order of priority:

               First:  to the Trustee for any unpaid Trustee Fees and then
               to any Secured Party which has theretofore advanced or paid
               any Trustee Fees constituting administrative expenses












               allowable under Section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, an
               amount equal to the amount thereof so advanced or paid by
               such Secured Party and for which such Secured Party has not
               been reimbursed prior to such Distribution Date;

                    Second:  to any Secured Party which has theretofore
               advanced or paid any Trustee Fees other than such
               administrative expenses, an amount equal to the amount
               thereof so advanced or paid by such Secured Party and for
               which such Secured Party has not been reimbursed prior to
               such Distribution Date;

                    Third:  to the Secured Parties in an amount equal to
               (i) in the case of holders of the Credit Agreement
               Obligations and the Public Debt Obligations, the unpaid
               principal (or, in the case of Public Debt Obligations that
               are Original Issue Discount Securities (as defined in the
               Indenture), such portion of the principal amount of such
               Public Debt Obligations as may be specified by the terms
               thereof) and unpaid interest on and other charges, if any,
               in respect of such Secured Obligations then outstanding

          <PAGE>
                                                                         7


               whether or not then due and payable, and (ii) in the case of
               holders of Secured Swap Obligations, the amount payable by
               the Company upon termination of such Secured Swap
               Obligations pursuant to the terms thereof and other charges,
               if any, in respect of such Secured Obligations then
               outstanding whether or not then due and payable, and, in any
               case, if such moneys shall be insufficient to pay such
               amounts in full, then ratably (without priority of any one
               over any other) to the Secured Parties in proportion to the
               unpaid amounts thereof on such Distribution Date;

                         Fourth:  to the Secured Parties, amounts equal to
               all other sums which constitute Secured Obligations,
               including without limitation the costs and expenses of the
               Secured Parties and their representatives which are due and
               payable under the relevant Secured Instruments and which
               constitute Secured Obligations as of such Distribution Date,
               and, if such moneys shall be insufficient to pay such sums
               in full, then ratably to the Secured Parties in proportion
               to such sums; and

                    Fifth:  any surplus then remaining shall be paid to the
               Company or its successors or assigns or to whomsoever may be
               lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of
               competent jurisdiction may direct.

                    (b)  The term "unpaid" as used in clause Third of
          subsection 3.4(a) refers:













                         (i)  in the absence of a bankruptcy proceeding
               with respect to the Company, to all amounts of Secured
               Obligations outstanding as of a Distribution Date, and

                         (ii)  during the pendency of a bankruptcy
                    proceeding with respect to the Company, to all amounts
                    allowed by the bankruptcy court in respect of Secured
                    Obligations as a basis for distribution (including
                    estimated amounts, if any, allowed in respect of
                    contingent claims),

          to the extent that prior distributions (whether actually
          distributed or set aside pursuant to subsection 3.5) have not
          been made in respect thereof.

                    (c)  The Trustee shall make all payments and
          distributions under this subsection 3.4:  (i) on account of
          Credit Agreement Obligations to the Administrative Agent for
          re-distribution in accordance with the provisions of the Credit
          Agreement; (ii) on account of Secured Swap Obligations to the
          respective Lender Swap Counterparties with respect thereto; and
          (iii) on account of Public Debt Obligations (subject to
          subsection 3.5) to the Public Debt Trustee for re-distribution in
          accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

                    3.5  Application of Moneys Distributable to Public Debt
          Trustee.  If at any time any moneys collected or received by the
          Trustee pursuant to this Trust Agreement are distributable
          pursuant to subsection 3.4 to the Public Debt Trustee, and if the
          Public Debt Trustee shall notify the Trustee in writing that no
          provision is made under the Indenture for the application by such
          Public Debt Trustee of such moneys (whether because the Secured
          Obligations issued under such Indenture have not become due and
          payable or otherwise) and that such Indenture does not
          effectively provide for the receipt and the holding by such
          Public 

          <PAGE>
                                                                         8


          Debt Trustee of such moneys pending the application thereof, then
          the Trustee, after receipt of such notification, shall, at the
          direction of the Public Debt Trustee, invest such amounts in Cash
          Equivalents maturing within 90 days after they are acquired by
          the Trustee and shall hold all such amounts so distributable and
          all such investments and the net proceeds thereof in trust solely
          for such Public Debt Trustee (in its capacity as trustee) and for
          no other purpose until such time as such Public Debt Trustee
          shall request in writing the delivery thereof by the Trustee for
          application pursuant to such Indenture.














                    3.6  Trustee's Calculations.  In making the
          determinations and allocations required by subsection 3.4, the
          Trustee may rely upon information supplied by the Administrative
          Agent as to the amounts payable with respect to Credit Agreement
          Obligations, upon information provided by any Lender Swap
          Counterparty as to the amount payable with respect to any Swap
          Obligation owing to such Lender Swap Counterparty, or upon
          information supplied by the Public Debt Trustee as to the amounts
          of unpaid principal and interest outstanding with respect to the
          Public Debt Obligations, and the Trustee shall have no liability
          to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on
          such information.  All distributions made by the Trustee pursuant
          to subsection 3.4 shall be (subject to any decree of any court of
          competent jurisdiction) final, and the Trustee shall have no duty
          to inquire as to the application by the Administrative Agent or
          the Public Debt Trustee of any amounts distributed to them.

                    3.7  Pro Rata Sharing.  If, through the operation of
          any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other laws or
          otherwise, the Trustee's security interest hereunder and under
          the Security Documents is enforced with respect to some, but not
          all, of the Secured Obligations then outstanding, the Trustee
          shall nonetheless apply the proceeds of the Shared Collateral for
          the benefit of the holders of all Secured Obligations in the
          proportions and subject to the priorities specified herein.  To
          the extent that the Trustee distributes Proceeds collected with
          respect to Secured Obligations held by one holder to or on behalf
          of Secured Obligations held by a second holder, the first holder
          shall be deemed to have purchased a participation in the Secured
          Obligations held by the second holder, or shall be subrogated to
          the rights of the second holder to receive any subsequent
          payments and distributions made with respect to the portion
          thereof paid or to be paid by the application of such Proceeds.

          copy of all Secured Instruments entered into after the Effective

                    4.2  Information as to Secured Parties, Administrative

          change in the identity of the Administrative Agent or the Public
          Debt Trustee.

                    4.3  Compensation and Expenses.  The Company agrees to
          pay to the Trustee, from time to time upon demand, (i) reasonable
          compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law
          in regard to compensation of fiduciaries or of a trustee of an
          express trust) for its services hereunder and under the Security
          Documents and for administering the Trust Estate and (ii) all of

          advanced in connection with the administration of the Trust
          Estate, the sale or other disposition of Shared Collateral
          pursuant to any Security Document and the preservation,
          protection or defense of the Trustee's rights under this Trust
          Agreement and the Security Documents and in and to the Shared
          Collateral and the Trust Estate or (C) incurred by the Trustee in
          connection with the removal of the Trustee pursuant to subsection
          5.7(a). The obligations of the Company under this subsection 4.3
          shall survive the termination of the other provisions of this
          Trust Agreement.

                    4.4  Stamp and Other Similar Taxes.  The Company agrees
          to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee, the Administrative
          Agent, the Public Debt Trustee and each Secured Party from any
          present or future claim for liability for any stamp or any other
          similar tax, and any penalties or interest with respect thereto,
          which may be assessed, levied or collected by any jurisdiction in
          connection with this Trust Agreement, any Security Document, the
          Trust Estate or any Shared Collateral.  The obligations of the
          Company under this subsection 4.4 shall survive the termination
          of the other provisions of this Trust Agreement.

                    4.5  Filing Fees, Excise Taxes, Etc.  The Company
          agrees to pay or to reimburse the Trustee for any and all
          payments made by the Trustee in respect of all search, filing,

          similar imposts which may be payable or determined to be payable
          in respect of the execution and delivery of this Trust Agreement
          and each Security Document.  The obligations of the Company under












          this subsection 4.5 shall survive the termination of the other
          provisions of this Trust Agreement.

          indemnify, and hold the Trustee, the Administrative Agent and
          each Public Debt Trustee harmless from and against

          <PAGE>
                                                                        10

          any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution,

          Trust Agreement and the Security Documents, unless arising from
          the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified
          party.  In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the Trustee
          under or with respect to any contract, agreement, interest or
          obligation constituting part of the Shared Collateral for any sum
          owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions thereof, the
          Company will save, indemnify and keep the Trustee, the
          Administrative Agent, the Public Debt Trustee and the Secured
          Parties harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage
          suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim,

          obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement,
          indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of
          such obligor or its successors from the Company, and all such
          obligations of the Company shall be and remain enforceable
          against and only against the Company and shall not be enforceable
          against the Trustee, the Administrative Agent, the Public Debt
          Trustee or any Secured Party.  The agreements in this subsection
          4.6 shall survive the termination of the other provisions of this
          Trust Agreement.

                    4.7  Trustee's Lien.  Notwithstanding anything to the
          contrary in this Trust Agreement, as security for the payment of

          Shared Collateral and (ii) the Trustee shall have the right to
          use and apply any of the funds held by the Trustee in the
          Collateral Account to cover such Trustee Fees.

                    4.8  Further Assurances.  At any time and from time to
          time, upon the written request of the Trustee, and at the expense
          of the Company, the Company will promptly execute and deliver any
          and all such further instruments and documents and take such
          further action as is necessary or reasonably requested further to
          perfect, or to protect the perfection of, the liens and security

          without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation
          statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any

          time to time, upon the written request of the Trustee (which
          shall be made only upon the written direction of the
          Administrative Agent), and at the expense of the Company, the
          Company will promptly execute and deliver any and all such
          further instruments and documents and take such further action as
          the Trustee has been so directed is necessary or reasonably
          requested to obtain the full benefits of this Trust Agreement and

          therein granted, including, without limitation, the filing of any
          financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial
          Code in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the liens and
          security interests granted by the Security Documents.  The
          Company also hereby authorizes the Trustee to sign and to file
          any such financing or continuation statements without the
          signature of the Company to the extent permitted by applicable
          law.

                                      SECTION 5.
                                     THE TRUSTEE

                    5.1  Acceptance of Trust.  The Trustee, for itself and
          its successors, hereby accepts the trusts created by this Trust
          Agreement upon the terms and conditions hereof.

                    5.2  Exculpatory Provisions.  1.  The Trustee shall not
          be responsible in any manner whatsoever for the correctness of
          any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein,
          all of which are made solely by the Company.  The Trustee makes
          no representations as to the value or condition of the Trust
          Estate or any part thereof, or as to the title of the Company
          thereto or as to the security afforded by this Trust Agreement or
          any Security Document, or as to the validity, execution (except
          its execution), enforceability, legality or sufficiency of this
          Trust Agreement, the Security Documents or the Secured
          Obligations, and the Trustee shall incur no liability or
          responsibility in respect of any such matters.  

                    (b)  The Trustee shall not be required to ascertain or
          inquire as to the performance by the Company of any of the
          covenants or agreements contained herein or in any Security
          Document or Secured Instrument.  Whenever it is necessary, or in
          the opinion of the Trustee advisable, for the Trustee to
          ascertain the amount of Secured Obligations then held by Secured
          Parties, the Trustee may rely on a certificate of the Public Debt
          Trustee, in the case of Public Debt Obligations, a certificate of
          the applicable Lender Swap Counterparty, in the case of Secured
          Swap Obligations, or a certificate of the Administrative Agent,
          in the case of Credit Agreement Obligations, and, if the Public
          Debt Trustee, any Lender Swap Counterparty or the Administrative
          Agent shall not give such information to the Trustee, it shall












          not be entitled to receive distributions hereunder (in which case
          distributions to those Persons who have supplied such information
          to the Trustee shall be calculated by the Trustee using, for
          those Persons who have not supplied such information, the list
          then most recently delivered by the Company pursuant to
          subsection 4.2), and the amount so calculated to be distributed
          to the Person who fails to give such information shall be held in
          trust for such Person until such Person does supply such
          information to the Trustee, whereupon on the next Distribution
          Date the amount distributable to such Person shall be
          recalculated using such information and distributed to it.

                    (c)  The Trustee shall be under no obligation or duty
          to take any action under this Trust Agreement or any Security
          Document if taking such action (i) would subject the Trustee to a
          tax in any jurisdiction where it is not then subject to a tax or
          (ii) would require the Trustee to qualify to do business in any
          jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, unless the
          Trustee receive security or indemnity satisfactory to it against
          such tax (or equivalent liability), or any liability resulting
          from such qualification, in each case as results from the taking
          of such action under this Trust Agreement or any Security
          Document.

                    (d)  The Trustee shall have the same rights with
          respect to any Secured Obligation held by it as any other Secured
          Party and may exercise such rights as though it were not the
          Trustee hereunder, and may accept deposits from, lend money to,
          and generally

          <PAGE>
                                                                       12


          engage in any kind of banking or trust business with the Company
          as if it were not the Trustee.

                    (e)  Delegation of Duties.  The Trustee may execute any
          of the trusts or powers hereof and perform any duty hereunder
          either directly or by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact. 
          The Trustee shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
          matters pertaining to such trusts, powers and duties.  The
          Trustee shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct
          of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it without gross
          negligence or willful misconduct.

                    5.4  Reliance by Trustee.  (a)  Whenever in the
          administration of this Trust Agreement or the Security Documents
          the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a factual
          matter be proved or established in connection with the Trustee
          taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder or thereunder,
          such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof is herein
          specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved
          or established by a certificate of a Responsible Officer












          delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate shall be full
          warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted
          in reliance thereon, subject, however, to the provisions of
          subsection 5.5.

                    (b)  The Trustee may consult with counsel, and any
          Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and
          protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it
          hereunder or under any Security Document in accordance therewith. 
          The Trustee shall have the right at any time to seek instructions
          concerning the administration of this Trust Agreement and the
          Security Documents from any court of competent jurisdiction.

                    (c)  The Trustee may rely, and shall be fully protected
          in acting, upon any resolution, statement, certificate,
          instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
          bond or other paper or document which it has no reason to believe
          to be other than genuine and to have been signed or presented by
          the proper party or parties or, in the case of cables, telecopies
          and telexes, to have been sent by the proper party or parties. 
          In the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct,
          the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
          statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein,
          upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
          conforming to the requirements of this Trust Agreement.

                    (d)  The Trustee shall not be under any obligation to
          exercise any of the rights or powers vested in the Trustee by
          this Trust Agreement and the Security Documents, at the request
          or direction of the Required Secured Parties pursuant to this
          Trust Agreement or otherwise, unless the Trustee shall have been
          provided adequate security and indemnity against the costs,
          expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by the Trustee in
          compliance with such request or direction, including such
          reasonable advances as may be requested by the Trustee.

                    (e)  Upon any application or demand by the Company
          (except any such application or demand which is expressly
          permitted to be made orally) to the Trustee to take or permit any
          action under any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement or any
          Security 

          <PAGE>
                                                                       13


          Document, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee a certificate
          of a Responsible Officer stating that all conditions precedent,
          if any, provided for in this Trust Agreement, in any relevant
          Security Document or in the Credit Agreement relating to the
          proposed action have been complied with, and in the case of any
          such application or demand as to which the furnishing of any
          document is specifically required by any provision of this Trust
          Agreement or a Security Document relating to such particular












          application or demand, such additional document shall also be
          furnished.

                    (f)  Any Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it
          relates to factual matters, upon a certificate of a Responsible
          Officer or representations made by a Responsible Officer in a
          writing filed with the Trustee.

                    5.5  Limitations on Duties of Trustee.  2.  Unless a
          Notice of Acceleration is in effect, the Trustee shall be
          obligated to perform such duties and only such duties as are
          specifically set forth in this Trust Agreement and the Security
          Documents, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read
          into this Trust Agreement or any Security Document against the
          Trustee.  If and so long as a Notice of Acceleration is in
          effect, the Trustee may, subject to the provisions of subsection
          2.4(b), exercise the rights and powers vested in the Trustee by
          this Trust Agreement and the Security Documents, and shall not be
          liable with respect to any action taken, or omitted to be taken,
          in accordance with the direction of the Required Secured Parties.

                    (b)  Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the
          Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any action
          which is discretionary with the Trustee under the provisions
          hereof or of any Security Document except upon the written
          request of the Required Secured Parties.  The Trustee shall make
          available for inspection and copying by the Administrative Agent
          and each Public Debt Trustee each certificate or other paper
          furnished to the Trustee by the Company under or in respect of
          this Trust Agreement or any Security Document or any of the
          Shared Collateral.

                    (c)  No provision of this Trust Agreement or of any
          Security Document shall be deemed to impose any duty or
          obligation on the Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise
          any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it,
          in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which the
          Trustee shall be unqualified or incompetent, to perform any such
          act or acts or to exercise any such right, power, duty or
          obligation or if such performance or exercise would constitute
          doing business by the Trustee in such jurisdiction or impose a
          tax on the Trustee by reason thereof.  

                    5.6  Moneys to be Held in Trust.  All moneys received
          by the Trustee under or pursuant to any provision of this Trust
          Agreement or any Security Document (except Trustee Fees) shall be
          held in trust for the purposes for which they were paid or are
          held.

                    5.7  Resignation and Removal of the Trustee.  3.  The
          Trustee may at any time, by giving written notice to the Company,
          the Administrative Agent and the Public Debt Trustee, resign and
          be discharged of the responsibilities hereby created, such













          resignation to become effective upon (i) the appointment of a
          successor Trustee, (ii) the acceptance of such 

          <PAGE>
                                                                         14


          appointment by such successor Trustee and (iii) the approval of
          such successor Trustee evidenced by one or more instruments
          signed by the Administrative Agent.  If no successor Trustee
          shall be appointed and shall have accepted such appointment
          within 90 days after the Trustee gives the aforesaid notice of
          resignation, the Trustee, the Administrative Agent, the Public
          Debt Trustee or any Secured Party may apply to any court of
          competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee to act
          until such time, if any, as a successor Trustee shall have been
          appointed as provided in this subsection 5.7.  Any successor so
          appointed by such court shall immediately and without further act
          be superseded by any successor Trustee appointed by the
          Administrative Agent as provided in subsection 5.7(b).  The
          Administrative Agent may, at any time upon giving 30 days' prior
          written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Public Debt
          Trustee, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee, such
          removal to be effective upon the acceptance of such appointment
          by the successor.  The Trustee shall be entitled to Trustee Fees
          to the extent incurred or arising, or relating to events
          occurring, before such resignation or removal.

                    (b)  If at any time the Trustee shall resign or be
          removed or otherwise become incapable of acting, or if at any
          time a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Trustee for any
          other cause, a successor Trustee may be appointed by the
          Administrative Agent.  The powers, duties, authority and title of
          the predecessor Trustee shall be terminated and cancelled without
          procuring the resignation of such predecessor and without any
          other formality (except as may be required by applicable law)
          than appointment and designation of a successor in writing duly
          acknowledged and delivered to the predecessor and the Company. 
          Such appointment and designation shall be full evidence of the
          right and authority to make the same and of all the facts therein
          recited, and this Trust Agreement and the Security Documents
          shall vest in such successor, without any further act, deed or
          conveyance, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts,
          duties, authority and title of its predecessor; but such
          predecessor shall, nevertheless, on the written request of the
          Administrative Agent, the Company, or the successor, execute and
          deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all the
          estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties, authority
          and title of such predecessor hereunder and under the Security
          Documents and shall deliver all Shared Collateral held by it or
          its agents to such successor.  Should any deed, conveyance or
          other instrument in writing from the Company be required by any
          successor Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in such
          successor the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts,












          duties, authority and title vested or intended to be vested in
          the predecessor Trustee, any and all such deeds, conveyances and
          other instruments in writing shall, on request of such successor,
          be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company.  If the
          Company shall not have executed and delivered any such deed,
          conveyance or other instrument within 10 days after it received a
          written request from the successor Trustee to do so, or if a
          Notice of Acceleration is in effect, the predecessor Trustee may
          execute the same on behalf of the Company.  The Company hereby
          appoints any predecessor Trustee as its agent and attorney to act
          for it as provided in the next preceding sentence.

                    5.8  Status of Successor Trustee.  Every successor
          Trustee appointed pursuant to subsection 5.7 shall be a bank or
          trust company in good standing and having power to act as Trustee
          hereunder, incorporated under the laws of the United States of
          America or any State thereof or the District of Columbia and
          having its principal corporate trust office within

          <PAGE>
                                                                       15


          the 48 contiguous States and shall also have capital, surplus and
          undivided profits of not less than $100,000,000, if there be such
          an institution with such capital, surplus and undivided profits
          willing, qualified and able to accept the trust hereunder upon
          reasonable or customary terms.

                    5.9  Merger of the Trustee.  Any corporation into which
          the Trustee may be merged, or with which it may be consolidated,
          or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to
          which the Trustee shall be a party, shall be Trustee under this
          Trust Agreement and the Security Documents without the execution
          or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the
          parties hereto.

                    5.10  Co-Trustee; Separate Trustee.  4.  If at any time
          or times it shall be necessary or prudent in order to conform to
          any law of any jurisdiction in which any of the Shared Collateral
          shall be located, or to avoid any violation of law or imposition
          on the Trustee of taxes by such jurisdiction not otherwise
          imposed on the Trustee, or the Trustee shall be advised by
          counsel, satisfactory to it, that it is necessary or prudent in
          the interest of the Secured Parties, or the Administrative Agent
          or the Public Debt Trustee shall in writing so request the
          Trustee and the Company, or the Trustee shall deem it desirable
          for its own protection in the performance of its duties hereunder
          or under any Security Document, the Trustee and the Company shall
          execute and deliver all instruments and agreements necessary or
          proper to constitute another bank or trust company, or one or
          more persons approved by the Trustee and the Company, either to
          act as co-trustee or co-trustees of all or any of the Shared
          Collateral under this Trust Agreement or under any of the












          Security Documents, jointly with the Trustee originally named
          herein or therein or any successor Trustee, or to act as separate
          trustee or trustees of any of the Shared Collateral.  If the
          Company shall not have joined in the execution of such
          instruments and agreements within 10 days after it receives a
          written request from the Trustee to do so, or if a Notice of
          Acceleration is in effect, the Trustee may act under the
          foregoing provisions of this subsection 5.10(a) without the
          concurrence of the Company and execute and deliver such
          instruments and agreements on behalf of the Company.  The Company
          hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent and attorney to act for
          it under the foregoing provisions of this subsection 5.10(a) in
          either of such contingencies.

                    (b)  Every separate trustee and every co-trustee, other
          than any successor Trustee appointed pursuant to subsection 5.7,
          shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act and
          be such, subject to the following provisions and conditions:

                         (i)  all rights, powers, duties and obligations
                    conferred upon the Trustee in respect of the custody,
                    control and management of moneys, papers or securities
                    shall be exercised solely by the Trustee or any agent
                    appointed by the Trustee;

                         (ii)  all rights, powers, duties and obligations
                    conferred or imposed upon the Trustee hereunder and
                    under the relevant Security Document or Documents shall
                    be conferred or imposed and exercised or performed by
                    the Trustee and such separate trustee or separate
                    trustees or co-trustee or 

          <PAGE>
                                                                       16


                    co-trustees, jointly, as shall be provided in the
                    instrument appointing such separate trustee or separate
                    trustees or co-trustee or co-trustees, except to the
                    extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
                    any particular act or acts are to be performed the
                    Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform
                    such act or acts, or unless the performance of such act
                    or acts would result in the imposition of any tax on
                    the Trustee which would not be imposed absent such
                    joint act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
                    duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed
                    by such separate trustee or separate trustees or
                    co-trustee or co-trustees;

                         no power given hereby or by the relevant Security
          Documents to, or which it is provided herein or therein may be
          exercised by, any such co-trustee or co-trustees or separate
          trustee or separate trustees shall be exercised hereunder or












          thereunder by such co-trustee or co-trustees or separate trustee
          or separate trustees except jointly with, or with the consent in
          writing of, the Trustee, anything contained herein to the
          contrary notwithstanding;

                    (iii)  no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable
               by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee
               hereunder; and

                    (iv) the Company and the Trustee, at any time by an
               instrument in writing executed by them jointly, may accept
               the resignation of or remove any such separate trustee or
               co-trustee and, in that case by an instrument in writing
               executed by them jointly, may appoint a successor to such
               separate trustee or co-trustee, as the case may be, anything

               instrument within 10 days after it receives a written
               request from the Trustee to do so, or if a Notice of
               Acceleration is in effect, the Trustee shall have the power
               to accept the resignation of or remove any such separate
               trustee or co-trustee and to appoint a successor without the
               concurrence of the Company, the Company hereby appointing
               the Trustee its agent and attorney to act for it in such
               connection in such contingency.  If the Trustee shall have
               appointed a separate trustee or separate trustees or
               co-trustee or co-trustees as above provided, the Trustee may
               at any time, by an instrument in writing, accept the
               resignation of or remove any such separate trustee or
               co-trustee and the successor to any such separate trustee or
               co-trustee shall be appointed by the Company and the
               Trustee, or by the Trustee alone pursuant to this subsection
               5.10(b).

                    5.11  Treatment of Payee or Indorsee by Trustee;
          Representatives of Secured Parties.  5.  The Trustee may treat
          the registered holder or, if none, the payee or indorsee of any
          promissory note or debenture evidencing a Secured Obligation as
          the absolute owner thereof for all purposes and shall not be
          affected by any notice to the contrary, whether such promissory
          note or debenture shall be past due or not.

                    (b)  Any Person (other than the Administrative Agent
          and the Public Debt Trustee) which shall be designated as the
          duly authorized representative of one or more Secured Parties to
          act as such in connection with any matters pertaining to this
          Trust Agreement or the Shared Collateral shall present to the

          demonstrate to the Trustee the authority of such Person to act as
          the representative of such Secured Parties (it being understood
          that the holders of Credit Agreement Obligations are represented
          hereunder by the Administrative Agent and shall have no other
          rights pursuant to this subsection 5.11(b)).  The authority of
          the Administrative Agent and the Public Debt Trustee shall be
          demonstrated by their inclusion as such in the lists from time to

          preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
          any other right, power or privilege.

          supplemental agreement unless the Trustee shall have received an

          will not result in a breach of any provision or covenant
          contained in the Indenture which requires the securing of the

          other obligations or indebtedness of the Company.

          interest in favor of the Trustee in, any property or assets as
          additional security for the Secured Obligations; or (iii) to cure

          in any Security Document which may be defective or inconsistent
          with any other provision herein or therein, or to make any other
          provision with respect to matters or questions arising hereunder
          which shall not be inconsistent with any provision hereof;
          provided that any such action contemplated by this clause (iii)
          shall not adversely affect the interests of the Secured Parties.

          <PAGE>
                                                                        5


          benefit of the Lenders, a first security interest in the
          Collateral, as collateral security for the prompt and complete
          payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity,
          by acceleration or otherwise) of the Credit Agreement
          Obligations.  The Administrative Agent hereby transfers and
          delivers such stock certificate and stock power to the
          Trustee, and from and after such transfer the Trustee shall
          hold all Collateral as successor secured party hereunder.  The
          Borrower hereby confirms that it has granted, and hereby
          grants, to the Trustee, for the equal and ratable benefit of
          the Lenders and the Holders, a first security interest in the
          Collateral, as collateral security for the prompt and complete












          payment and performance when due (whether at the stated
          maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations. 

                    3.  Representations and Warranties.  The Borrower
          represents and warrants that:

                    (a)  The shares of Pledged Stock constitute all the
          issued and outstanding shares of all classes of the capital
          stock of the Issuer.

                    (b)  All the shares of the Pledged Stock have been duly
          authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
          nonassessable.

                    (c)  The Borrower is the record and beneficial owner
          of, and has good and marketable title to, the Pledged Stock, free
          of any and all Liens or options in favor of, or claims of, any
          other Person, except the security interest created by this
          Agreement.  The Borrower is not and will not become a party to
          or otherwise bound by any agreement, other than this
          Agreement, which restricts in any manner the rights of any
          present or future holder of any of the Pledged Stock with
          respect thereto.

                    (d)  There is no requirement for any registration,
          recording or filing in connection with the creation of a valid
          security interest in the Collateral.  The stock certificate
          evidencing the Pledged Stock having been delivered to the
          Administrative Agent, as secured party under the Existing
          Pledge Agreement, the security interest created by this
          Agreement constitutes, and upon transfer of such stock
          certificate to the Trustee as contemplated by Section 2 hereof
          such security interest will continue to constitute, a valid,
          perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral
          enforceable in accordance with its terms against all creditors
          of the Borrower and any Persons purporting to purchase any
          Collateral from the Borrower, except as affected by
          bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization,
          moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting
          creditors' rights generally, general equitable principles
          (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and
          an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

                    (e)  The chief executive office of the Borrower is
          located at its address set forth in subsection 13.2 of the
          Credit Agreement.

                    4.  Covenants.  The Borrower covenants and agrees
          with the Trustee on behalf of the Lenders and the Holders
          that, from and after the date of this Agreement until this












          Agreement is terminated and the security interests created
          hereby are released: 

                   (a)  If the Borrower shall, as a result of its ownership
          of the Pledged Stock, become entitled to receive or shall
          receive any stock certificate (including, without limitation,
          any certificate representing a stock dividend or a
          distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase
          or reduction of capital or any certificate issued in
          connection with any reorganization), option or rights, whether
          in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in
          exchange for any shares of the Pledged Stock, or otherwise in
          respect thereof, the Borrower shall accept the same as the
          agent of the Trustee, the Lenders and the Holders, hold the
          same in trust for the Trustee, the Lenders and the Holders,
          and deliver the same forthwith to the Trustee in the exact
          form received, duly indorsed by the Borrower to the Trustee,
          if required, together with an undated stock power covering
          such certificate duly executed in blank by the Borrower, to be
          held by the Trustee, subject to the terms hereof, as
          additional collateral security for the Obligations.  Any sums
          paid upon or in respect of the Pledged Stock upon the
          liquidation or dissolution of the Issuer shall be paid over to
          the Trustee to be held by it hereunder as additional
          collateral security for the Obligations,  and in case any
          distribution of capital shall be made on or in respect of the
          Pledged Stock or any property shall be distributed upon or
          with respect to the Pledged Stock pursuant to the
          recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of the
          Issuer or pursuant to the reorganization thereof, the property
          so distributed shall be delivered to the Trustee to be held by
          it hereunder as additional collateral security for the
          Obligations.   If any sums of money or property so paid or
          distributed in respect of the Pledged Stock shall be received
          by the Borrower, the Borrower shall, until such money or
          property is paid or delivered to the Trustee, hold such money
          or property in trust for the Trustee, the Lenders and the
          Holders, segregated from other funds of the Borrower, as
          additional collateral security for the Obligations.

                    (b)  Without the prior written consent of the
          Trustee, the Borrower will not (i) vote to enable, or take any
          other action to permit, the Issuer to issue any stock or other
          equity securities of any nature or to issue any other securities
          convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange
          for any stock or other equity securities of any nature of the
          Issuer, (ii) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise
          dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Collateral,
          (iii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in
          favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, any of the
          Collateral, or any interest therein, except for the security
          interests created by this Agreement or (iv) enter into any
          agreement or undertaking (other than the Credit Agreement, the
          Indenture, the Trust Agreement and this Agreement) restricting












          the right or ability of the Borrower or the Trustee to sell,
          assign or transfer any of the Collateral.

                    (c)  The Borrower shall maintain the security interest
          created by this Agreement as a first perfected security interest
          and shall defend such security interest against claims and
          demands of all Persons whomsoever.  At any time and from time to
          time, upon the written request of the Trustee, and at the sole
          expense of the Borrower, the Borrower will promptly and duly
          execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and
          take such further actions as the Trustee may reasonably request
          for the purposes of obtaining or 

          <PAGE>
                                                                         7


          preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights
          and powers herein granted.  If any amount payable under or in
          connection with any of the Collateral shall be or become
          evidenced by any promissory note, other instrument or chattel
          paper, such note, instrument or chattel paper shall be
          immediately delivered to the Trustee, duly endorsed in a manner
          satisfactory to the Trustee, to be held as Collateral pursuant to
          this Agreement. 

                    (d)  The Borrower shall pay, and save the Trustee, the
          Lenders and the Holders harmless from, any and all liabilities
          with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and
          all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or
          determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or
          in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this
          Agreement. 

                    5.  Cash Dividends; Voting Rights.  Unless a Secured
          Debt Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the
          Trustee shall have given notice to the Borrower of the Trustee's
          intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 7
          below, the Borrower shall be permitted to receive all cash
          dividends paid in the normal course of business of the Issuer and
          consistent with past practice in respect of the Pledged Stock and
          to exercise all voting and corporate rights with respect to the
          Pledged Stock; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or
          corporate right exercised or other action taken which, in the
          Administrative Agent's reasonable judgment, would impair the
          Collateral or which would be inconsistent with or result in any
          violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this
          Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

                    6.  Rights of the Lenders and the Trustee.  (a)  The
          Trustee may at any time or from time to time, in its sole
          discretion, cause any or all of the Pledged Stock to be
          transferred of record into the name of the Trustee or its
          nominee.  The  Borrower will promptly give to the Trustee and the












          Administrative Agent copies of any notices or other
          communications received by it with respect to Pledged Stock
          registered in the name of the Borrower, and the Trustee will
          promptly give to the Borrower copies of any notices and
          communications received by the Trustee with respect to the
          Pledged Stock registered in the name of the Trustee or its
          nominee. 

                    (b)  If a Secured Debt Default shall occur and be
          continuing and the Trustee shall give notice of its intent to
          exercise such rights to the Borrower, (a) the Trustee shall have
          the right to receive any and all cash dividends paid in respect
          of the Pledged Stock and make application thereof to the
          Obligations in such order as set forth in the Trust Agreement,
          and (b) all shares of the Pledged Stock not previously registered
          in the name of the Trustee or its nominee shall be registered in
          the name of the Trustee or its nominee, and the Trustee or its
          nominee may thereafter exercise (i) all voting, corporate and
          other rights pertaining to such shares of the Pledged Stock at
          any meeting of shareholders of the Issuer or otherwise and (ii)
          any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription and any
          other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such shares of
          the Pledged Stock as if it were the absolute owner thereof
          (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its
          discretion any and all of the Pledged Stock upon the merger,
          consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other
          fundamental change in the corporate structure of the Issuer, or
          upon the exercise by the Borrower or the Trustee of any right,
          privilege or option pertaining to such shares of the 

          <PAGE>
                                                                        8   
                

          Pledged Stock, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit
          and deliver any and all of the Pledged Stock with any committee,
          depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency
          upon such terms and conditions as the Trustee may determine), all
          without liability except to account for property actually
          received by it, but the Trustee shall have no duty to the
          Borrower to exercise any such right, privilege or option and
          shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so
          doing. 

                    7.  Remedies.  If a Secured Debt Default shall have
          occurred and be continuing, the Trustee may exercise, in addition
          to all other rights and remedies granted in this Agreement and in
          any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or
          relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured
          party under the Code.  Without limiting the generality of the
          foregoing, the Trustee, without demand of performance or other
          demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind
          (except  any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon
          the Borrower or any other Person (all and each of which demands,












          defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in
          such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and
          realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may
          forthwith sell, assign, give option or options to purchase or
          otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part
          thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more
          parcels at public or private sale or sales, in the
          over-the-counter market, at any exchange, broker's board or
          office of the Trustee, any Holder or any Lender or elsewhere upon
          such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such
          prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future
          delivery without assumption of any credit risk.  Any Holder or
          any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or
          sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private
          sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the
          Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in
          the Borrower, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. 
          The Trustee shall apply any Proceeds from time to time held by it
          and the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt,
          appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all
          reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in respect
          thereof or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the
          Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights 
          of the Holders and the Lenders hereunder, including, without
          limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements of
          counsel to the Trustee, to the payment in whole or in part of the
          Obligations, in such order as the Trust Agreement shall
          prescribe, and only after such application and after the payment
          by the Trustee of any other amount required by any provision of
          law, including, without limitation, Section 9-504(1)(c) of the
          Code, need the Trustee account for the surplus, if any, to the
          Borrower.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
          Borrower waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire
          against the Trustee, any Holder, any Agent or any Lender arising
          out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder.  If any
          notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral
          shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable
          and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other
          disposition.  The Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency
          if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of Collateral
          are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and
          disbursements of any attorneys employed by the  Trustee, any
          Holder or any Lender to collect such deficiency.

                    8.  Registration Rights; Private Sales.  (a)  If the
          Trustee shall exercise its right to sell any or all of the
          Pledged Stock pursuant to Section 7 hereof, and if it is
          necessary or advisable to have the Pledged Stock, or that portion
          thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the
          Securities Act, the Borrower will cause the Issuer to (i) execute












          and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of the Issuer
          to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and
          do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary or
          advisable to register the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof
          to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use
          its best efforts to cause the registration statement relating
          thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period
          of one year from the date of the first public offering of the
          Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make
          all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which may
          be necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the
          requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations
          of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. 
          The Borrower agrees to cause the Issuer to comply with the
          provisions of the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of any and all
          jurisdictions which are necessary or advisable and to make
          available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an
          earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy
          the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

                    (b)  The Borrower recognizes that the Trustee may be
          unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock,
          by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act
          and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be
          compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a
          restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree,
          among other things, to acquire such securities for their own
          account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or
          resale thereof.  The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any
          such private sale may result in prices and other terms less
          favorable than if such sale were a public sale and,
          notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private
          sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially
          reasonable manner.  The Trustee shall be under no obligation to
          delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time
          necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such
          securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under
          applicable state securities laws, even if the Issuer would agree
          to do so.

                    (c)  The Borrower further agrees to use its best
          efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be
          necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the
          Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section valid and binding and in
          compliance with any and all other applicable legal requirements. 
          The Borrower further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants
          contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the
          Lenders and the Holders that the Lenders and the Holders have no
          adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
          consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this
          Section shall be specifically enforceable against the Borrower,
          and the Borrower hereby waives and agrees not to assert any
          defenses against an action for specific performance of such
          covenants except for a defense that no Secured Debt Default has












          occurred and is continuing. 

                    9.  Irrevocable Authorization and Instruction to
          Issuer.  The Borrower hereby authorizes and instructs the Issuer
          to comply with any instruction received by it from the Trustee in
          writing that (a) states that a Secured Debt Default has occurred
          and (b) is 

          <PAGE>
                                                                       10


          otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without
          any other or further instructions from the Borrower, and the
          Borrower agrees that the Issuer shall be fully protected in so
          complying. 

                    10.  Trustee's Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.  (a) 
          The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the
          Trustee and any officer or agent of the Trustee, with full power
          of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with
          full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of
          the Borrower and in the name of the Borrower or in the Trustee's
          own name, from time to time in the Trustee's discretion, but at
          the expense of the Borrower, for the purpose of carrying out the
          terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action
          and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be
          necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this
          Agreement, including, without limitation, any financing
          statements, endorsements, assignments or other instruments of
          transfer.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at
          any time and from time to time while a Secured Debt Default has
          occurred and is continuing, the Trustee may, in the name of the
          Borrower or in its own name, exercise all or any of the following
          powers with respect to all or any of the Collateral:

                    (i)  demand, sue for, collect, receive and give
               acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon
               or by virtue thereof;

                    (ii)  settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend
               any action or proceeding with respect thereto;

                    (iii)  sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or
               with the same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully
               and effectually as if the Trustee were the absolute owner
               thereof; and

                    (iv)  extend the time of payment of any or all thereof
               and to make any allowance and other adjustments with
               reference thereto;

          provided that the Trustee shall give the Borrower not less than
          ten days' prior written notice of the time and place of any sale












          or other intended disposition of any of the Collateral.  The
          Trustee and the Borrower agree that such notice constitutes
          "reasonable notification" within the meaning of Section 9-504(3)
          of the Code. 

                    (b)  The Borrower hereby ratifies all that said
          attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done pursuant to the
          power of attorney granted in paragraph 11(a).  All powers,
          authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are
          coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement
          is terminated and the security interests created hereby are
          released.

                    11.  Duty of Trustee.  The Trustee's sole duty with
          respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of
          the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Code
          or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in substantially the same
          manner as the Trustee deals with similar securities and property
          for its own account.  Neither the Trustee,

          <PAGE>
                                                                       11


          any Lender, any Holder, nor any of their respective directors,
          officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to
          demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any
          delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or
          otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the
          Borrower or any other Person or to take any other action
          whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.

                    12.  Execution of Financing Statements.  Pursuant to
          Section 9-402 of the Code, the Borrower authorizes the Trustee to
          file financing statements with respect to the Collateral without
          the signature of the Borrower in such form and in such filing
          offices as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to perfect
          the security interests of the Trustee under this Agreement.  A
          carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement
          shall
          be sufficient as a financing statement for filing in any
          jurisdiction.

                    13.  Authority of Trustee.  The Borrower acknowledges
          that the rights and responsibilities of the Trustee under this
          Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Trustee or the
          exercise or non-exercise by the Trustee of any option, voting
          right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for
          herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as
          between the Trustee and the Lenders and the Holders, be governed
          by the Trust Agreement, but, as between the Trustee and the
          Borrower, the Trustee shall be conclusively presumed to be acting
          as Trustee for the Lenders and the Holders with full and
          valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and neither the












          Borrower nor the Issuer shall be under any obligation, or
          entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.  The
          Trustee shall exercise all powers, rights and remedies under this
          Agreement, including, without limitation, under subsection 6(b)
          and Section 7 hereof, in accordance with the Trust Agreement.

                    14.  Further Assurances.  (a)  The Borrower agrees that
          it will, at its expense and in such manner and form as the
          Trustee may require, execute, deliver, file and record any
          financing statement, specific assignment or other paper and take
          any other action that may be necessary or desirable in order to
          create, preserve, perfect or validate any security interest in
          the Collateral granted hereunder or to enable the Trustee to
          exercise and enforce its rights hereunder with respect to any of
          the Collateral.

                    (b)  The Borrower agrees that it will not change (i)
          its name, identity or corporate structure in any manner (other
          than pursuant to the Merger or the Alternative Merger) or (ii)
          the location of its chief executive office unless it shall have
          given the Trustee and the Administrative Agent not less than 30
          days' prior notice thereof. 

                    15.  Termination of Security Interests; Release of
          Collateral.  Upon repayment in full of all Obligations and the
          termination of the Commitments under the Credit Agreement, the
          security interests in the Collateral granted hereunder shall
          terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the
          Borrower, and upon such termination the Trustee shall, at the
          instruction of the Administrative Agent (which instruction the
          Administrative Agent shall promptly give), return the Pledged
          Stock to the Borrower.  At any time and from time to time prior
          to such termination of the security interests in the Collateral
          granted hereunder, the Trustee (i) shall release any of the
          Collateral as directed by the Administrative 

          <PAGE>
                                                                      12

          Agent (acting with the prior written consent of the Lenders
          parties to the Credit Agreement in accordance with the provisions
          of the Credit Agreement) and (ii) shall release the security
          interests in all the Collateral granted hereunder upon the
          instruction of Administrative Agent (which instruction the
          Administrative Agent shall give in accordance with the provisions
          of subsection 13.9 of the Credit Agreement).  Upon any such
          termination of the security interest in the Collateral granted
          hereunder or release of Collateral, the Trustee will, at the
          expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver to the Borrower such
          documents as the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence
          the termination of the security interests in the Collateral
          granted hereunder or the release of such Collateral, as the case
          may be. 













                    16.  Expenses and Indemnification.  (a)  The Borrower
          agrees that it will forthwith upon demand pay to the Trustee or
          the Administrative Agent, as the case may be:

                    (i)  the amount of any taxes which the Administrative
               Agent or the Trustee may have been required to pay by reason
               of the security interests in the Collateral granted
               hereunder or to free any of the Collateral from any Lien
               thereon; and 

                    (ii)  the amount of any and all out-of-pocket expenses,
               including the fees and disbursements of counsel and of any
               other experts, which the Administrative Agent or the Trustee
               may incur in connection with (w) the administration or
               enforcement of this Agreement, including such expenses as
               are incurred to preserve the value of the Collateral and the
               validity, perfection, rank and value of any security
               interest  in the Collateral granted hereunder, (x) the
               collection, sale or other disposition of any of the
               Collateral, (y) the exercise by the Trustee or the
               Administrative Agent of any of the rights conferred upon it
               hereunder or (z) any Secured Debt  Default.

          Any such amount not paid on demand shall bear interest at the
          rate applicable to Tranche A
          Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans plus 2%. 

                    (b)  The indemnification provisions of subsection 13.7
          of the Credit Agreement are incorporated by reference herein as 
          if set forth in full herein.

                    (c)  The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive
          any termination of the Credit Agreement and the Trust Agreement.

                    17.  Notices.  All notices, requests and demands to or
          upon the Administrative Agent, the Trustee or the Borrower to be
          effective shall be in writing (or by facsimile transmission or
          similar electronic transfer) and shall be deemed to have been
          duly given or made (a) when delivered by hand or (b) if given by
          mail, three Domestic Business Days after the date deposited in
          the mails by certified mail, return receipt requested, or (c) if
          by facsimile transmission or similar electronic transfer, when
          received, addressed to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower
          at its address or transmission number for notices provided in
          subsection 13.2 of the Credit Agreement or to the Trustee at its
          address set forth on the signature pages of the Trust Agreement
          or any other address which such party shall have specified as its
          address for purposes of communications thereunder.  The
          Administrative

          <PAGE> 
                                                                        13














          Agent, the Trustee and the Borrower may change their addresses
          and transmission numbers for notices by notice in the manner
          provided in this Section.

                    18.  Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement
          which 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 or
          unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
          render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

                    19.  Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative
          Remedies.  (a)  None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement
          may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except
          by a written instrument executed by the Borrower, the Trustee and
          the Administrative Agent, provided that any provision of this
          Agreement may be waived by the Trustee in a letter or agreement
          executed by the Trustee or by facsimile transmission from the
          Trustee.

                    (b)  None of the Trustee, any Holder or any Lender
          shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to
          paragraph 19(a) hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise
          be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have
          acquiesced in any Secured Debt Default or in any breach of any of
          the terms and conditions hereof.  No failure to exercise, nor any
          delay in exercising, on the part of the Trustee, any Holder, any
          Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder
          shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No single or partial exercise
          of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any
          other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
          right, power or privilege.  A waiver by the Trustee of any right
          or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as
          a bar to any right or remedy which such Agent or such Lender
          would otherwise have on any future occasion.

                    (c)  The rights and remedies herein provided are
          cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not
          exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

                    20.  Section Headings.  The Section headings used in
          this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not
          to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration
          in the interpretation hereof.

                    21.  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be
          binding upon the successors and assigns of the Borrower and shall
          inure to the benefit of the Trustee, the Administrative Agent,
          the Lenders and the Holders and their successors and assigns.

                    22.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed by
          one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of
          separate counterparts (including by facsimile transmission), and












          all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to
          constitute one and the same instrument.  A set of the copies of
          this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the
          Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Trustee.

                    23.  GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND
          OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
          CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE
